USGS ISO Content Specifications

A repository for USGS ISO metadata content specifications. Content specifications define documentation requirements for various USGS data and software products. These specs are used to guide authors in developing robust standardized metadata using the ISO 19115 suite of metadata standards. The repository is used for development, testing and implementation of content spec modules. It contains guida

nhdplusTools: Tools for Accessing and Working with the NHDPlus

Tools for traversing and working with National Hydrography Dataset Plus (NHDPlus) data. All methods implemented in 'nhdplusTools' are available in the NHDPlus documentation available from the US Environmental Protection Agency https://www.epa.gov/waterdata/basic-information.

GCLAS (Graphical Constituent Loading Analysis System): A tool for computing loads of constituents transported in rivers

GCLAS is a program designed to compute daily and annual loadings of constituents transported in rivers. 

InterpretSELDM version 1.0 The Stochastic Empirical Loading and Dilution Model (SELDM) output interpreter

The InterpretSELDM program is a graphical post processor designed to facilitate analysis and presentation of stormwater modeling results from the Stochastic Empirical Loading and Dilution Model (SELDM), which is a stormwater model developed by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration. SELDM simulates flows, concentrations, and loads in stormflows from upstr

Source code in R to quality assure, plot, summarize, interpolate, and extend groundwater-level information, visGWDB---Groundwater-level informatics with demonstration for the Mississippi River Valley alluvial aquifer

This page contains extensive source code in the R language supporting groundwater level informatics, and the entry point is the script visGWDB.R. The approximately 4,000 lines of aggregate code requires also extensive external dependencies. The code provides for near arbitrary-scale information processing of observations or recordings of water levels associated groundwater resources. The processin

Stream Channel and Floodplain Metric Toolbox

The Stream Channel and Floodplain Metric Toolbox was developed to demonstrate the feasibility of mapping fluvial geomorphic features from high-resolution bare-earth elevation data.

MT3D-USGS: Groundwater Solute Transport Simulator for MODFLOW

MT3D-USGS is a USGS updated release of the groundwater solute transport code MT3DMS. MT3D-USGS includes new transport modeling capabilities to accommodate flow terms calculated by MODFLOW packages that were previously unsupported by MT3DMS and to provide greater flexibility in the simulation of solute transport and reactive solute transport.

Highway-Runoff Database (HRDB) Version 1.1

The Highway-Runoff Database (HRDB) was developed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Office of Project Delivery and Environmental Review to provide planning-level information for decision makers, planners, and highway engineers to assess and mitigate possible adverse effects of highway runoff on the Nation's receiving waters (Granato

Code to assist the USFWS with eDNA field sampling designs for eDNA

This code supports the manuscript "Refinement of eDNA as an early monitoring tool at the landscape-level: Study design considerations". The code fit a three-level occupancy model with two detection assays in the program Stan through R. We programmed this code for a specific project with the USFWS and it will likely not generalize to other situations. The primary purpose of releasing this code is t

NetCDF-CF Geometry and Timeseries Tools for R

Tools to create time series and geometry 'NetCDF' files.

Basin Characterization Model (BCM)

The Basin Characterization Model (BCM) models the interactions of climate with empirically measured landscape attributes including topography, soils, and underlying geology. It is a grid-based model that calculates the water balance for each 18-acre cell (270m resolution) in a given watershed in set time steps for the entire area. 

energySIM: An R Package

Petroleum resource assessments provide statistical insight into the scale and spatial occurrence of oil and gas accumulations.
