Data Releases

These datasets, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center, provide lidar-derived first-surface and bare-earth topography for a portion of the Texas coastline. Elevation measurements were acquired by the Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar (EAARL) on September 17th, 2008, following Hurricane Ike landfall.

These datasets, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center, provide lidar-derived first-surface and bare-earth topography for a portion of the Texas coastline. Elevation measurements were acquired by the Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar (EAARL) on September 27th and 28th, and October 2nd, 2005, following Hurricane Rita landfall.

These data are bathymetry (river bottom elevation) in XYZ format, generated from the April 4-5, 2017, bathymetric survey of the Rolling Fork and Beech Fork near Boston, Kentucky. The bathymetry was collected from approximately 1.9 miles upstream from Kentucky State Highway 62 on the Beech Fork and approximately 1.5 miles upstream from Kentucky State Highway 62 on the Rolling Fork, to 2.6 miles dow

These data are bathymetry (river bottom elevation) in XYZ format, generated from the March 29-30, 2017 and April 13, 2017, bathymetric survey of the East Fork White River at Columbus, Indiana. The bathymetry was collected from approximately the confluence of Driftwood and Flatrock rivers, downstream to the confluence of Haw Creek. Hydrographic data were collected using an acoustic Doppler current

Beaches are a dynamic interface between water and land and are frequently subjected to a range of natural hazards, which include flooding, storm effects, and coastal erosion. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is conducting a national assessment of coastal change hazards across the Nation. One component of this research effort, the National Assessment of Shoreline Change Project, documents changes

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release consists of daily evapotranspiration (ET) measurements/estimates for the time period January 1, 1998 to December 31, 1999. These data are derived from measurements of actual ET conducted at a height of 36.5 meters on a communications-type tower in Tiger Bay State Forest. The station is located at a nearly flat site (29 degrees 8 minutes 15 seconds No

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release consists of daily evapotranspiration (ET) measurements/estimates for the time period January 29, 2009 to September 27, 2012. These data are derived from measurements of actual ET conducted at a height of 73 meters on the University of Central Florida WUCF 89.9 radio tower. The station is located at a nearly flat site (28 degrees 35 minutes 27 seconds

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release consists of 20-minute evapotranspiration (ET) measurements/estimates for the time period September 15, 1993 to August 27, 1994. These data are derived from measurements of actual ET conducted at a site within the Lake Wales Ridge, Florida characterized by sandy, rapidly-drained soils, and hilly topography. The station is located at a site (28 degrees

In a crude-oil-contaminated sandy aquifer at the Bemidji site in northern Minnesota, biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons resulted in transient increases in magnetic susceptibility under high water table conditions. The magnetic susceptibility subsequently decreased again when the water table dropped. This data set was assembled to illustrate the cause of the magnetic susceptibility changes. T

The Assessment Unit is the fundamental unit used in the National Assessment Project for the assessment of undiscovered oil and gas resources. The Assessment Unit is defined within the context of the higher-level Total Petroleum System. The Assessment Unit is shown herein as a geographic boundary interpreted, defined, and mapped by the geologist responsible for the province and incorporates a s

In April 2017, a sequence of earthquakes offshore Valparaso, Chile, raised concerns of a potential megathrust earthquake in the near future. The largest event in the 2017 sequence was a M6.9 on April 24th, seemingly co-located with the last great-sized earthquake in the regiona M8.0 in March 1985. The history of large earthquakes in this region shows significant variation in rupture size and exten

This datafile consists of a subset of plant phenology observations drawn from the USA National Phenology Networks National Phenology Database (www.usanpn.org). The data were collected by citizen and professional observers and archived and distributed by the USA National Phenology Network. Protocols are available in Denny et al. (2014). This datafile consists of plant phenology observations that we
