Dynamical downscaling of the GENMOM climate model over Western North America from the Last Glacial Maximum to present Dynamical downscaling of the GENMOM climate model over Western North America from the Last Glacial Maximum to present
We downscaled global climate simulations we previously conducted with the GENMOM coupled atmosphere ocean general circulation model at T31 resolution (~3.71° latitude × 3.75° longitude) by progressively nesting 50- and 15-km configurations of the hydrostatic version of the RegCM5 regional climate model over Western North America (WNA). The extent of the 50-km model domain captures key...
Airborne magnetic and radiometric data acquired over parts of Hudspeth, Culberson, Jeff Davis, Presidio, and Brewster Counties, Texas Airborne magnetic and radiometric data acquired over parts of Hudspeth, Culberson, Jeff Davis, Presidio, and Brewster Counties, Texas
This data release provides digital flight line data for a high-resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric survey of the Texas Alkaline Igneous Belt in western Texas. The airborne survey was funded by the Earth Mapping Resources Initiative. NV5 Geospatial, in collaboration with EDCON-PRJ, Inc., acquired high-precision airborne magnetic and radiometric data from January 19, 2025 to...
Georectified mosaic of historical aerial photographs of the Colorado River within the Lake Mead region, Arizona and Nevada, acquired in 1935 Georectified mosaic of historical aerial photographs of the Colorado River within the Lake Mead region, Arizona and Nevada, acquired in 1935
This product is a georectified and tonally balanced image mosaic of aerial photographs collected in February 1935 by the U.S. Soil Conservation Service along the floodplain of the Colorado River in the Lake Mead region of Arizona and Nevada. This dataset was developed to portray the geologic characteristics of the lower Colorado River floodplain and can serve as a resource to help create...
Detrital sanidine geochronology related to early Colorado River deposits, Arizona and California Detrital sanidine geochronology related to early Colorado River deposits, Arizona and California
Reported here are detrital sanidine argon geochronology data collected to better understand the early evolution of the Colorado River system. Samples were collect throughout the lower Colorado River corridor from Lake Mead to near Cibola, Arizona. Most samples are of the Bouse Formation but also include the deposits of Hualapai Wash, the Lost Cabin beds, and recent Colorado River...
Clast composition, flow direction, and U-Pb detrital zircon results from modern and ancestral rivers near Lewiston Basin, Washington and Idaho Clast composition, flow direction, and U-Pb detrital zircon results from modern and ancestral rivers near Lewiston Basin, Washington and Idaho
This data release is companion to a manuscript entitled: "Long-term intermittent connection between the western Snake River Plain and Columbia Basin: a two-phased incision history of Hells Canyon". Here, we report the measured flow direction and compositions of clasts and detrital zircon U-Pb ages from samples collected from modern and ancestral rivers near the Lewiston Basin region. The...

This data release contains small uncrewed aircraft system (sUAS) products acquired from Sulphur Creek near Wilbur Hot Springs in Colusa County, California. The dataset includes: (1) high-resolution visible light orthomosaics, (2) a digital surface model (DSM) derived from structure-from-motion photogrammetry using visible imagery, (3) a raw thermal orthomosaic, (4) a calibrated thermal...
Geophysical grids, horizontal gradient maxima and depth to bedrock of the Blythe region, California and Arizona Geophysical grids, horizontal gradient maxima and depth to bedrock of the Blythe region, California and Arizona
This data release contains (1) geophysical grids, (2) horizontal gravity and residual magnetic gradient maxima and (3) inputs to a gravity inversion of Cenozoic basin thickness based on gravity measurements of the Blythe region of California and Arizona. Gridded data (geotiffs.zip) consist of the input isostatic gravity grid as well as grids of Cenozoic basin thickness and bedrock...
Airborne magnetic and radiometric survey, east central Idaho and Montana, 2023-2024 Airborne magnetic and radiometric survey, east central Idaho and Montana, 2023-2024
This data release provides digital flight-line and gridded data for a high-resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric survey over parts of eastern Idaho and western Montana. The survey was acquired as part of the UGSS Earth Mapping Resource Initiative (Earth MRI) to improve our understanding of the fundamental geologic framework of the region with applications to evaluating natural...
Data release accompanying Quantitative Mineral Resource Assessment of Lithium Pegmatite Deposits in the Southern Appalachian Orogen Data release accompanying Quantitative Mineral Resource Assessment of Lithium Pegmatite Deposits in the Southern Appalachian Orogen
A mineral resource assessment for lithium was carried out by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) for the southern Appalachian region, between latitudes 31N and 40N and longitudes 75W and 89W, in the following states: Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama. This study (Rosera and others, in press) integrates data from several sources, including...

This data release includes control point locations, depths, stratigraphic context, and reference information used to constrain the sedimentary and tectonic history of Chehalis Basin
Microfossil samples from mottled mudstones and adjacent units in Northern and Central California Microfossil samples from mottled mudstones and adjacent units in Northern and Central California
This digital database is an inventory of microfossil samples in units or formations containing mottled mudstones and units or formations stratigraphically above and below units containing mottled mudstones. This database contains detailed information about each sample (e.g., USGS laboratory number, field number, collector and date collected, location quadrangle etc.) and database entries...
Density and magnetic susceptibility measurements on Archean and Proterozoic rocks, southern Medicine Bow Mountains, Wyoming, 2021-2024 Density and magnetic susceptibility measurements on Archean and Proterozoic rocks, southern Medicine Bow Mountains, Wyoming, 2021-2024
Rock physical property measurements were collected on outcrops to help understand the causative sources of gravity and magnetic survey anomalies in the southern Medicine Bow Mountains of Wyoming. A total of 539 magnetic susceptibility measurements and 318 density measurements have been conducted. The resulting data aid in interpretation of gravity and airborne magnetic data that are...
