Data

The U.S. Inland Creel and Angler Survey Catalog (CreelCat) contains data compiled from 14,729 creel and angler surveys conducted by state natural resource management agencies (including Washington DC and Puerto Rico) in inland waters across the United States. Data are contained in eight .csv files which contain information about survey characteristics (Survey_Data.csv), angler effort (AngEffort_Da

The karstic Edwards and Trinity aquifers are classified as major sources of water in south-central Texas by the Texas Water Development Board, and both are classified as major aquifers by the State of Texas. The purpose of this data release is to present the data that were collected and compiled to describe the geologic framework and hydrostratigraphy within parts of Bandera and Kendall Counties,

Since 2005, the U.S. Geological Survey - Great Lakes Science Center's Lake Erie Biological Station (LEBS) has participated in a collaborative, multiagency effort to assess pelagic prey fish populations in the western (WB), central (CB), and eastern (EB) basins of Lake Erie through a combination of hydroacoustic and midwater trawl sampling. Assessing lake-wide distribution and abundance of pelagic

The data release consists of two companion air and water temperature datasets collected as part of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Next Generation Water Observing System (NGWOS) program with data from both the Little Lehigh and White Clay Creek Watersheds in the Delaware River Basin. Data consists of 15-minute temperature data during the 7/2021 – 12/2022 study period for 21 air and 49 water loca

This data release contains three data sets. The data were collected in 1996 at the South Unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park, ND, USA. The main data set comprises the list of plant species observed and includes the transect, plot number, plot size, and vegetation type where each species was found. A second data set has the locations of the transects, along with their IDs which can be linked t

Fifty-one tidal marsh sites across five regions (sub-embayments) were surveyed in the Delta, Suisun Bay, San Pablo Bay, central San Francisco Bay, and South San Francisco Bay. Vegetation surveys spanned ten years, from July 2008 to January 2018. A total of 5,112 plots were surveyed. Plots were positioned on transects along an elevation gradient and evenly distributed across each site, where possib

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) have recently been observed in rivers, including the Illinois River in the Midwest United States. The Illinois River Basin has a history of eutrophication issues, primarily caused by the excessive loading of nitrogen and phosphorus from urban and agricultural sources. Recent events have seen the emergence of cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms in the area. This data rel

This USGS data release presents data used to estimate and summarize where and when recharge occurs to the Columbia River Basalt Group (CRBG) in the Umatilla River basin, Oregon, 2014–2022. The supplemental data consist of two child items. The child items are: (1) Discrete geochemical data for groundwater and surface water samples in the Umatilla River basin, 2014–2022, and (2) Dissolved gas solu

This dataset includes pipe-flow monitoring data in sewers used to analyze the water budget at RecoveryPark in Detroit, Michigan. These are provided as 3 text comma separated format files at sewer locations that drain the study area. In addition, there are 6 text comma separated format files containing the Rhodamine dye tracer concentrations collected in the combined sewer locations for this study.

This dataset contains raw sequence data collected from an eDNA metabarcoding project to detect freshwater mussel species across two sites in Georgia (Spring Creek and Flint River) and one drainage in Missouri (Big Piney River). The eDNA samples were collected from each stream using dead-end ultra filtration (D-HFUF) with eDNA extracted from filters. We used two previously published primer sets des

The role of disease in freshwater mussel declines has been largely ignored due to the lack of appropriate diagnostic tools and metabolomic markers of stress. Mussels in this study were either fed a prepared diet or unfed and their condition was assessed with the observed changes in fatty acid content of their tissue. This dataset contains quantitative fatty acid data from nonlethal (biopsy) sampli

Multibeam and sidescan sonar were collected for a total of 15 sites in the North Arm, Maxwell Bay, and St. Albans Bay of Lake Minnetonka, Minnesota, to determine whether hydroacoustics could be used in turbid rivers and lakes as a method of rapid detection for invasive zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) infestations. Hydroacoustic data were collected in June, August, and the end of September, 202
