2022 Supplemental Appropriations Activities

Bathymetry and acoustic-backscatter data were collected during three separate SWATHPlus surveys of Jenkinson Lake, California to determine any impacts on the lake floor following the 2021 Caldor fire. Data were collected and processed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center (PCMSC) with fieldwork activity numbers 2022-604-FA (January 2022), 2022-649-FA (Augu

This data release presents Digital Surface Models (DSM) and orthomosaic images derived from uncrewed aerial system (UAS) surveys conducted at Jenkinson Lake in El Dorado County, California. The surveys were conducted to perform repeat structure-from-motion topographic mapping at the upper end of the reservoir, near the inlets of Sly Park Creek and Hazel Creek, with the purpose of measuring sedimen

Description This data release is an inventory of runoff-generated postfire debris flows compiled from 18 burn areas across six western U.S. states. Debris-flow data from the following fires are included: Arizona: 2019 Museum, 2021 Flag, and 2022 Pipeline Fires California: 2014 Silverado, 2015 Valley, 2019 Briceburg, 2020 Dolan, 2020 El Dorado, 2020 Lake, and 2021 Dixie Fires Colorado: 2020 Camer

As part of the 2022 Disaster Supplemental project, scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (SPCMSC) conducted a nearshore geophysical survey to map the shoreface and inner shelf, as well as characterize stratigraphy near the Chandeleur Islands, Louisiana (LA) in June and August 2023. The purpose of this study was to conduct a morphologic a

Summary This data release is an inventory of runoff-generated postfire debris flows compiled from 17 burn areas across five western U.S. states. Debris-flow data from the following fires are included: Arizona: 2017 Pinal and 2019 Woodbury Fires California: 2020 Apple, 2020 Bond, 2015 Butte, 2020 El Dorado, 2014 El Portal, 2018 Ferguson, 2016 Fish (San Gabriel Complex), 2011 Motor, and 2017 Thomas

Summary This data release is a field-verified inventory of postfire debris flows for the 2021 Dixie Fire following a 23-25 October 2021 atmospheric river storm and 12 June 2022 thunderstorm. The “README.txt” file describes the fields for the “Inventory.csv” file. The “Chambers” and “Chips” rain gage data referenced in the inventory are included as: “Chambers-Oct2021-Storm.csv”, “Chambers-Jun2022-S

Rainfall measurements were collected in and near the Dolan Fire burn area, Los Padres National Forest, California. The Dolan Fire ignited on August 18, 2020. By the time of full containment on December 31, 2020, the fire had burned 518 km2 (128,050 acres) in Monterey County. Post-fire debris flows occurred in many watersheds burned by the Dolan Fire during the first post-fire wet season, in winter

These datasets contain information on the probabilities of hurricane-induced erosion (collision, inundation, and overwash) for each 1-km section of the United States sandy open-ocean coastline for category 1-5 hurricanes. The analysis is based on a storm-impact scaling model (Sallenger, 2000; https://www.jstor.org/stable/4300099) that uses observations of beach morphology combined with sophisticat
