BisonCore (MagEdition) displays live magnetic data (top) and lidar altitude (bottom)
USGS National Innovation Center UAS Research Center Saucer Shark Project, BisonCore displays the path of the sensor live, as it covers transects. Data received from the payload is then displayed within the BisonCore Ecosystem and is accessible for field viewing. The magnetic map is also used to validate payload directed algorithms.

Redwood Creek at Orick Streamgage 11482500 photo by Travis Apo
Anthony Smith photo cred. Redwood Cr at Orick, 11482500. Under 101 bridge and is also the measuring section. Provisional peak was 42,700 cfs. Looks to be the highest peak since 1975. NWS had concerns of levee capacity that night. At the gage, highwater mark which exceeded CSG's, looked to be roughly 8 ft from top of levee.

USGS Sediment Core Laboratory
USGS scientists collect core samples from estuaries, lakes, coasts, and marine environments to study a range of physical and chemical properties preserved in sediment or coral over time. They process and analyze these core samples at the Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center’s Sediment Core Lab.

Image of the Week: Tulare Basin Refills
A winter of heavy rain causes flooding in California's Tulare Basin, threatening cropland. The basin was once the site of a large lake that appeared naturally every winter as rainfall and snowmelt from the nearby Sierra Nevada mountain range flowed down and filled the basin. It was even known as the largest lake west of the Mississippi River.
