LANDFIRE Remap Fuel Vegetation Cover (FVC) Marshall Islands

The LANDFIRE (LF) 2016 Remap (Remap) Fuel Vegetation Cover (FVC) represents a modified pre-disturbance version of the Existing Vegetation Cover (EVC) product from previous LF versions. LF Remap EVC is mapped as continuous estimates of canopy cover for tree, shrub, and herbaceous lifeforms with a potential range from 10% to 100%. To translate continuous EVC values into fuel model assignments, EVC values are binned to correspond with the bins from previous LF versions. FVC leverages fuel transition assignments related to disturbed areas by re-establishing  pre-disturbance vegetation and is developed using the full suite of LF vegetation releases, plus the most recent 10 years of disturbance data. FVC is a capable fuels product that calculates Time Since Disturbance (TSD) assignments for disturbed areas using an "effective year." For example, year 2020 fuels may be calculated for the year 2020. the new process considers all the existing disturbances included in LF Remap and adjusts the TSD for these to the effective year (2020 in the example), making the products "2020 capable fuels." More information about capable fuels can be found at https://www.landfire.gov/lf_remap.php.

Microfossil, grain size, and petrographic data for the Cabin Branch and Cabin Creek (Cappy Avenue) outcrops, Prince George's County, Maryland

The Cabin Branch and Cabin Creek (Cappy Avenue) outcrops are located along two small creeks in Prince George’s County, Maryland.   The Cabin Branch outcrop contains exposures of silty sands of the Upper Cretaceous Severn Formation, and both outcrops contain Paleocene silty quartz and glauconitic sands of the Danian Brightseat Formation and highly fossiliferous glauconitic quartz sands of the Selandian Aquia Formation.  Data from these two locations were generated in order to designate a Principal Reference Section for the Danian age Brightseat Formation.
The Cabin Branch outcrop consists of disjunct exposures along an approximately 0.4-mile section of the creek. At the nearby Cabin Creek (Cappy Avenue) outcrop a more complete Brightseat/Aquia contact is exposed.
Data generated from these two outcrops include a complete suite of sand/silt/clay percent abundances from each sample of each formation.  Additionally, data for the sand-size fraction from each formation were further broken down into percent abundance of very fine, fine, medium, and coarse components. Petrographic data for the indurated beds at the Cabin Branch outcrop are also included.
Calcareous nannofossil data from the two outcrops are presented in three occurrence charts: one for the Late Cretaceous and one for the Paleocene at Cabin Branch, and one for the Brightseat-Aquia contact interval at Cabin Creek (Cappy Avenue).  Calcareous nannofossil data were used to determine the ages and zonation of each formation, and species richness, a measure used to detail community stability, is also provided.  In addition to calcareous nannofossil biostratigraphy, samples were processed for other calcareous microfossils: planktic and benthic foraminifera and ostracods.  A table for each outcrop presents the number of planktic and benthic foraminifera per 300 specimens, along with the total number of ostracods present per sample.  An occurrence chart of ostracod species is provided for both outcrops.

Tennessee Karst Groundwater Dye Tracing, Water Year 2022

Karst hydrologic systems are important resources in the state of Tennessee both as drinking water resources and as centers for possible biological diversity. These systems are susceptible to contamination due to the inherent connectivity between surface water and groundwater in karst landscapes. A partnership between the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and Tennessee Department of Conservation (TDEC) was formed to investigate karst spring systems across the state utilizing fluorescent groundwater tracing, particularly in areas where these resources may be used as drinking water sources. In fall 2021, USGS and TDEC staff identified possible vulnerabilities or complexities that may exist within karst spring systems based upon maturity of karst development, underlying geology, and uncertainties related to estimated recharge areas. Based upon initial research, several study areas were selected. In late winter 2021, fieldwork began in areas surrounding the Tennessee communities of Cowan, Jasper, Vanleer, and Woodbury. These communities are in three physiographic provinces; Cowan and Jasper are near the Cumberland Plateau while Vanleer and Woodbury are located on the Western and Eastern Highland Rim, respectively. These systems are in areas where the hydrology has been significantly altered by karst processes and thus the groundwater pathways are complex and unpredictable.
Data within each child item of this data release are named with a two-letter abbreviation unique for the community where the tracing occurred and the water year the work was conducted (e.g. WD23).  Abbreviations for the communities are as followed: CW = Cowan, JS = Jasper, VN = Vanleer, WD = Woodbury.
This data release contains shapefiles that relate to dye injection locations, monitoring sites, and dye traces. All files were created in ArcGIS Pro and each shapefile contains associated attributes for the features contained within. Layer files are included with the datasets to match symbology found in figures in the accompanying report. All shapefiles and layers were created and modified in ArcGIS software. For a full description of the methods to create these files, see Process Steps in "AllData22_metadata.xml."

Near-surface temperature - SUCR - 3-24-2022

This was a test of equipment and methodology prior to remote field work. We inserted the probes of temperature data loggers into the cinder-covered surface within a scene being observed by a FLIR thermal camera. The temperature probes record near-surface temperatures while the thermal camera records at-surface temperatures. Comparisons between the 2 thermal datasets can be used for calibration and to determine physical properties such as thermal conductivity.

Data release for Quantitative method development to determine feed consumption using a dye

The goal of this study was to develop a simple, cost effective method to mark fish through oral delivery of an indicator that could be qualitatively and quantitively assessed based on consumption. Our objectives were to 1) determine the concentration of orally administered Sudan Black B required for qualitative confirmation of ingestion, 2) trace the biodistribution of Sudan Black B in several fish tissues, and 3) quantify feed consumption by extracting orally delivered Sudan Black B from several tissues. Additionally, the time required to detect Sudan Black B in each tissue, effects between species, and optimal tissues for Sudan Black B extraction were determined. Methods were developed to quantify absorbance of Sudan Black B extracted from multiple fish tissues using a spectrophotometer. The dataset includes raw files for time-till-blue, biodistribution, feeding, and a case study for three freshwater fish species. Each file includes species information, observational data, treatment information of Sudan Black B, and absorbance estimates from tissue extractions.
