Main Terrace vertical offset data for the Lower Rhine Graben, central Europe - Data Release

This data release includes vertical offset information for the regionally extensive Main Terrace in the Lower Rhine Graben in the border region between Germany, Beligum, and Netherlands. These data are used in an investigation exploring the temporal and spatial pattern of Quaternary fault slip rates in this region and are the subject of an investigation by Gold and others (in review at Bulletin of

Data from Earthquake-Induced Landslide Hazards for a M7.0 Scenario Earthquake on the Hayward Fault

These maps show the potential of widespread slope failures, in terms of landslide probabilities and displacement, triggered by a M7.0 scenario earthquake on the Hayward Fault in the 10-county area surrounding the San Francisco Bay region, California. The likelihood of landsliding was evaluated using an equation developed by Jibson and others (2000) that estimates landslide probability as a functio

Estimated low-flow statistics at un-gaged locations in New Jersey, Water Year 2016

Estimates of low-flow statistics at un-gaged locations were computed at multiple locations throughout New Jersey during the 2016 Water Year using methods in the USGS report, Streamflow Characteristics and Trends in New Jersey, Water Years 1897-2003 (Watson, et.al, 2005). The estimates are provided for use in water resources assessment and management by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Pr

Cottonwood Lake Study Area - Wetland Identifier Points

This dataset provides point locations of wetlands in the Cottonwood Lake Study Area to aid in identification of study area wetlands.

Cottonwood Lake Study Area - Aerial Imagery

Collection of orthorectified images from aerial photograph of wetlands in the Cottonwood Lake Study Area, Stutsman County, North Dakota. This collection of image were acquired during July and early August from 1975 to 2015. Aerial photographs of wetlands in the Cottonwood Lake Study Area were collected in order to facilitate a better understanding of the influence of natural climate variability o

PRISM late Pliocene (Piacenzian) alkenone - derived SST data

This dataset collects sea surface temperature data generated through alkenone analysis of late Pliocene sediments collected from cores and field localities by USGS PRISM project members. Alkenone analysis of sample material was performed by Timothy Herbert at Brown University.

Monthly densities of the snail Cerithideopsis (Cerithidea) californica at Carpinteria Salt Marsh, California USA, February 2012 to January 2014

Each month (except March 2012), we collected detailed data on the density, size distribution, and infection status of intertidal snails from ten fixed sites as part of a broader effort to understand food webs in California Estuaries. The study site was Carpinteria Salt Marsh Reserve, California USA, (University of California Natural Reserve System), which comprises 9 Ha tidal channels, 2 Ha salt f

A comparison of four pore water sampling methods for mixed metals and dissolved organic carbon, and implications for toxicity evaluations-Data

These replicate data support the findings described in the publication, "A comparison of four pore water sampling methods for mixed metals and dissolved organic carbon, and implications for sediment toxicity evaluations" by Danielle Cleveland, William G. Brumbaugh, and Donald D. MacDonald (Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry 2017). The data represent comparison of four commonly-applied techniqu

Seismic water gun data collected at Brandon Road Lock and Dam near Joliet and in the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal near Lemont, Illinois

Water pressure, ground velocity and ground acceleration data were collected May 19-22, 2014 at Brandon Road Lock and Dam near Joliet, Illinois and also June 2-5, 2014 in the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal near Lemont, Illinois. The data were collected to measure water pressures and ground velocities produced from the firing of a seismic water gun.

Terrestrial laser scanner data from Hetch Hetchy area, Yosemite National Park, California, USA

These data are 3D point cloud data collected by laser scanner in the Hetch Hetchy area of Yosemite National Park, USA. The data were collected to assess landscape change and vegetation response following the 2013 Rim wildfire. Filename convention: "hh_datatype_dd_ddmmyyyy_laserreturns_siteidentification". "datatype" is either "alsm" or "tls" The former was collected by the National Center for Airb

Bathymetry and acoustic backscatter data of the Sacramento River, from the Feather River to Knights Landing, California in February, 2011

On February 1, 2011, the USGS Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center (PCMSC) team carried out a project using interferometric sidescan sonar to characterize the riverbed and channel banks of a 12 mile reach of the Sacramento River near the town of Knights Landing, California (River Mile 79 through River Mile 91). The project was developed in coordination with David Smith, Engineering Research a

Evapotranspiration units and potential areas of groundwater discharge delineated July 2024, 2009 in the upper Humboldt River Basin, northeastern Nevada

This USGS data release represents the evapotranspiration units and potential areas of groundwater discharge geospatial data from the following publication: Plume, R.W., and Smith, J.L., 2013, Properties of basin-fill deposits, a 19712000 water budget, and surface-water-groundwater interactions in the upper Humboldt River basin, northeastern Nevada: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigatio
