Data Releases
The data collected and the techniques used by USGS scientists should conform to or reference national and international standards and protocols if they exist and when they are relevant and appropriate. For datasets of a given type, and if national or international metadata standards exist, the data are indexed with metadata that facilitates access and integration.

Projected proportional change in wildlife population measures for Scaled Quail, Gambel's Quail, and Gunnison's prairie dog under future climate scenarios in the U.S. Southwest Projected proportional change in wildlife population measures for Scaled Quail, Gambel's Quail, and Gunnison's prairie dog under future climate scenarios in the U.S. Southwest
The dataset includes 36 raster files of predicted proportional change in wildlife population measure for different combinations of species, statistical model, time period, and emissions scenario. This collection includes all 36 possible combinations of three species (Gambel's Quail, Scaled Quail, and Gunnison's prairie dog), three future time periods (2021-2050, 2041-2070, and 2061-2090)...
Water flux and avian species data at Lake Saint Clair Metropark in Macomb County, Michigan, collected during recreational seasons of 2021, 2022, and 2023 Water flux and avian species data at Lake Saint Clair Metropark in Macomb County, Michigan, collected during recreational seasons of 2021, 2022, and 2023
The monitoring of Lake Saint Clair Metropark beach involved several types of data collection. This data release includes data sets for the counts of avian species (gulls and Canada geese) and data on water fluxes between surface water and groundwater measured during recreational seasons of 2021, 2022, and 2023.
Nearshore substrate, macrophyte, invertebrate, and clam data collected at field sites pre- and post-installation of a clam garden in the Pacific Northwest (2021-2025) Nearshore substrate, macrophyte, invertebrate, and clam data collected at field sites pre- and post-installation of a clam garden in the Pacific Northwest (2021-2025)
The Swinomish Indian Tribal Community (SITC) is reviving an ancient mariculture practice by installing the first known present-day clam garden in the United States. Clam gardens are intertidal features modified by coastal Indigenous people (e.g., creating intertidal terraces to alter beach slope and substrate) to enhance clam habitat for optimal shellfish production. Nearshore substrate
Fish genetics data and population location information from the Upper Snake River basin, WY (2020-2022) Fish genetics data and population location information from the Upper Snake River basin, WY (2020-2022)
Fish genetics data and the location of populations of Yellowstone cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus virginalis bouvieri; formerly Oncorhynchus clarkii bouvieri). Surveys were collected in tributaries and rivers within the upper Snake River basin, Wyoming. These datasets were created to be used in genetic stock identification to evaluate the effect of tributary populations on population...
40Ar/39Ar geochronologic data for ignimbrites of the Sour Creek dome, Yellowstone Volcano 40Ar/39Ar geochronologic data for ignimbrites of the Sour Creek dome, Yellowstone Volcano
40Ar/39Ar data presented in this data release are from the Sour Creek dome, one of two resurgent domes in Yellowstone caldera, WY. These data were collected to determine the age of volcanic rocks that make up Sour Creek dome, and to determine if the Sour Creek dome is indeed a resurgent dome or instead formed by another means. Specifically, these data were collected to test if volcanic...
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...
Predicted Number of Fires and Burned Area for CONUS (2020:2060) Predicted Number of Fires and Burned Area for CONUS (2020:2060)
We used a Bayesian statistical model that includes projections of where people will be located on the landscape and future atmospheric conditions from downscaled climate model simulations using a moderate warming trajectory (RCP 4.5), to make predictions regarding the number, size of the 90% largest fires, and area burned by wildfires in each Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) level-3...
CONUS404 PGW climate forcing variable subset for hydrologic models, 1979-2024: downscaled to 1 km and bias-adjusted for precipitation and temperature CONUS404 PGW climate forcing variable subset for hydrologic models, 1979-2024: downscaled to 1 km and bias-adjusted for precipitation and temperature
Overview This metadata record serves as documentation for the bias adjusted (BA) version of the CONUS404 pseudo-global warming (PGW) atmospheric forcing dataset at 1-kilometer grid spacing (for the original PGW dataset, see Xue and others, 2024). This dataset covers a future-perturbed 45-year period (water years 1980-2024, October 1, 1979-September 30, 2024) and has sufficient temporal...
Projected historic and future wetland carbon stocks, fluxes, and land cover under alternative restoration scenarios for four National Park Service lands Projected historic and future wetland carbon stocks, fluxes, and land cover under alternative restoration scenarios for four National Park Service lands
This dataset provides annual raster maps of ecosystem carbon stocks and fluxes following restoration within four National Park Service lands the Ackerson Meadow restoration project in Yosemite National Park, Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail, Indiana Dunes National Park, and Cape Cod National Seashore. Data were produced using the Land Use and Carbon Simulator (LUCAS...

This dataset includes geospatial results of the following Urban Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Tradeoffs (Urban InVEST) ecosystem service models for the years 2001, 2011, and 2021 for metropolitan areas in the contiguous United States: Urban Cooling, Urban Nature Access, Urban Stormwater Retention, and Carbon Storage & Sequestration. The Urban Cooling results include heat...
Total dissolved-solid loads in the Upper Colorado River Basin during high-flow hydrologic events from 2021 to 2023 Total dissolved-solid loads in the Upper Colorado River Basin during high-flow hydrologic events from 2021 to 2023
This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release contains data that allows for calculation of total dissolved-solid loads for high-flow and baseflow conditions in the Upper Colorado River Basin (UCRB) collected between 2021 and 2023. High-flow hydrologic events are critical periods for salinity transport but are often underrepresented in existing datasets due to limited sampling and...
Microprobe data for rock samples from the Escanaba Trough (Gorda Ridge) Microprobe data for rock samples from the Escanaba Trough (Gorda Ridge)
This data release contains electron microprobe data collected on thin sections made from rock samples collected from the Escanaba Trough hydrothermal vent field, Gorda Ridge, in the northeast Pacific Ocean. These data were collected in 2022 on expedition TN403 (USGS Field Activity 2022-621-FA). Samples were taken to the USGS Pacific Coastal Marine Science Center for subsampling and...
