The U.S Geological Survey (USGS) is assessing the potential for in-situ addition of metal-based coagulants to enhance mercury (Hg) capture in the Cache Creek Settling Basin (CCSB), a wetland-like environment designed to trap mercury-contaminated sediments from upstream historical mining activities in the Cache Creek watershed. Laboratory and field tests by the USGS show that three tested

Overview: There are multiple systems for mapping waterbodies within the conterminous United States. Prominent among them are the "High Resolution" and "Version 2" editions of the National Hydrography Dataset Plus. The National Hydrography Dataset Plus High Resolution (NHDPlusHR, Moore and others, 2025) uses "Permanent Identifiers" to identify waterbodies, while the National Hydrography...

This data release contains a timeseries (2004-2025) of photographs from five permanent locations (Stops 1-5, roughly 11x15 centimeters) established to observe biological soil crusts (BSC, a collection of species of lichens, cyanobacteria, and bryophytes). The five locations were randomly located within a larger study area established to monitor vegetation and biological soil crusts as...

The Louisiana State Legislature established the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) to conserve, restore, create and enhance Louisiana's coastal wetlands. Restoration plans developed under CWPPRA require evaluating the effectiveness of each project in achieving long-term solutions to coastal wetlands loss. This data set includes mosaicked aerial photographs...

This data release contains the boundaries of assessment units, assessment input data, and resulting fact sheet data tables for the assessment of undiscovered conventional oil and gas resources of the Larsen Basin, Antarctica. The assessment unit is the fundamental unit used in the National and Global Oil and Gas Assessment (NAGA) Project for the assessment of undiscovered oil and gas...

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) surveys were conducted in and around the Lava Beds National Monument in northern CA during two field expeditions, in June of 2022 and May of 2024. These surveys collected GPR data using various antenna frequencies and multiple survey styles in varied geologic terrains. Types of terrain surveyed include inside of- and over lava tubes, on volcanic deposits...

This dataset contains world production quantities for antimony, bauxite, and alumina published in the U.S. Geological Survey Minerals Yearbook, Volume I (Metals and Minerals) for the period 2010-2022. These data are presented as a table file (entity) in CSV format along with the metadata file that describes the data associated with the entity.

This data release provides an archive of random forest regressions predicting streamflow correlation as a function of climatic similarity over the contiguous United States, based on streamflow information from water years 1981 to 2020. This data release also contains the underlying datasets used to generate those regressions and a series of scripts that facilitate their exploration and...

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Wyoming Water Development Office (WWDO), developed streamflow statistics regression equations using basin characteristics and streamflow statistics at streamgages for mean daily discharge data through water year 2021. This data release provides supplementary data to the Scientific Investigation Report (SIR), "Methods for...

This volume's release consists of 139985 media files captured by autonomous wildlife monitoring devices under the project, USGS Cuban Treefrog Invasion Front. The attached files listed below include several CSV files that provide information about the data release. The file, "media.csv" provides the metadata about the media, such as filename and date/time of capture. The actual media...

The preliminary bedrock geologic map database of the 7.5-minute Port Henry quadrangle consists of deformed and metamorphosed Mesoproterozoic gneisses of the Adirondack Highlands unconformably overlain by weakly deformed lower Paleozoic sedimentary rocks of the Champlain Valley (fig. 1) on the published geologic map. The Mesoproterozoic rocks occur on the eastern edge of the Adirondack...

This data release contains site location information, environmental DNA (eDNA) data, and fish capture data from round goby (Neogobius melanostomus) surveys conducted on parts of the Schoharie Creek, New York, during 2024 and 2025. Data were collected in two phases. During Phase 1 (March–July 2024), a rapid assessment of the round goby invasion front (furthest upstream extent of the...
