Stream Segments Captures and Crossings Associated With 2012 Aquatic Organism Passage Study Siuslaw National Forest

Stream segments, aquatic organism captures, stream surveys, and road-stream crossings described by these metadata accompany a 2012 electrofishing study of the distribution and abundance of aquatic organisms (fish, lampreys, amphibians and crayfish), conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey, and the Pacific Northwest Region Aquatic and Riparian Ecosystem Monitoring Project (AREMP) of the U.S. Forest Service, in the Siuslaw National Forest in western Oregon, USA. The purpose of the study was to quantify the effectiveness of stream-road crossing restoration (culvert replacement to the stream simulation standard) in terms of numbers of fish and length of stream gained through restoration, and to quantify the continuing effects of replaced and non-replaced crossings on the probability of passage by aquatic organisms compared to stream reaches having no road crossing. The sampling design is nested in several ways; sampled stream segments (30-m electrofishing plots) were selected in a spatially balanced random sample within stream networks (contiguous spatial collections of segments within 2 km of a study culvert or road crossing). Networks themselves were randomly sampled for study from the 79 networks in the scope of inference with probability proportional to the length of stream suitable for sampling [&lt; 25% average gradient, &lt; 10 km2 in drainage area, and &gt; 0.283 l.s-1 (0.01 cubic feet per second) in mean annual discharge]. The scope of inference was defined as stream within 2 km of a study crossing (303 stream-road crossings identified as potentially important to salmon and trout based on channel slope, valley bottom morphology, and stream size). At sampled segments electrofishing was used to capture aquatic organisms for identification, counting, and at a sub-sample of sites marking for capture-recapture study. Recapture passes were conducted two days after the initial electrofishing pass.

Monthly normalized scaled surface wind friction velocity in the Uinta-Piceance Basin (UT, CO) for March to October from 2001 to 2016

These data were compiled to conduct a study on the effect of oil and gas development on dust emission potential in the Upper Colorado River Basin. The objectives of the study were to 1) assess the effect of oil and gas development on surface roughness, and 2) model the resultant effect of oil and gas development on sediment mass flux for a range of 10-m wind speeds and threshold wind friction velocities. These data represent monthly means of normalized scaled surface wind friction velocity - a metric modelled from land surface albedo that approximates surface roughness - of March to October of the years 2001 to 2016. These data are representative of disturbed and undisturbed sites located in five climate-soil strata in the Uinta-Piceance Basin. These data were modelled from the MODIS MCD43A3 (v061) product (Schaaf and Wang 2015). Data processing and modeling was conducted in Google Earth Engine. These data can be used to understand how oil and gas development have changed surface conditions and dust emission risk in the Uintah-Piceance Basin over a 16-year period.

Bathymetry data from Floras Lake, Oregon, June 2018

This portion of the USGS data release presents bathymetry data collected during surveys performed in Floras Lake, Oregon in June 2018 (USGS Field Activity Number 2018-636-FA). Floras Lake is a coastal lake in southern Oregon that is separated from the Pacific Ocean by sand dunes. It is not influenced by tides, although water levels fluctuate seasonally. Lake bed bathymetry data were collected using two personal watercraft (PWCs) equipped with single-beam sonar systems and global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receivers. The sonar systems consisted of an Odom Echotrac CV-100 single-beam echosounder and 200 kHz transducer with a 9-degree beam angle. Depths from the lakebed to the echosounder were calculated using the digitized acoustic backscatter and sound velocity profiles, measured using a YSI CastAway CTD. Positioning of the survey vessels was determined at 10 Hz using Trimble R7 GNSS receivers. Output from the GNSS receivers and sonar systems were combined in real time on the PWC by a computer running HYPACK hydrographic survey software. Navigation information was displayed on a video monitor, allowing PWC operators to navigate along survey lines at speeds of 2 to 3 m/s. Survey-grade positions of the PWCs were achieved with a single-base station and differential post-processing. Positioning data from the GNSS receivers were post-processed using Waypoint Grafnav to apply differential corrections from a GNSS base station with known horizontal and vertical coordinates relative to the North American Datum of 1983. Orthometric elevations relative to the NAVD88 vertical datum were computed using National Geodetic Survey Geoid12a offsets. Bathymetric data were merged with post-processed positioning data, raw data were examined and soundings adjusted in areas with aquatic vegetation, and spurious soundings were removed using a custom Graphical User Interface (GUI) programmed with the computer program MATLAB. The average estimated vertical uncertainty of the bathymetric measurements is 5 cm based on manufacturer-reported accuracies of the survey equipment. However, the effect of aquatic vegetation on the vertical accuracy of the bathymetric measurements is unknown. The final point data from the PWCs are provided in a comma-separated text file and are projected in cartesian coordinates using the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM), Zone 10 North, meters coordinate system.

Hawaiian Islands probability of excess rainfall conditions by land cover type under current (2002-2012) and future (2090-2099) scenarios

One of the determinants of runoff is the occurrence of excess rainfall events where rainfall rates exceed the infiltration capacity of soils. To help understand runoff risks, we calculated the probability of excess rainfall events across the Hawaiian landscape by comparing the probability distributions of projected rainfall frequency and land cover-specific infiltration capacity. We characterized soil infiltration capacity based on different land cover types (bare soil, grasses, and woody vegetation) and compared them to the frequency of large rainfall events under current and future (pseudo-global warming) climate scenarios. Here we provide two rasters of excess rainfall for current (2002-2012) and future (2090-2099) scenarios at 90 m each with four bands for the select individual land cover classes (bare soil, grasses, and woody vegetation).

Land cover map including wetlands and invasive Phragmites circa 2017 for Eastern Lake Erie

The first basin-wide map of large stands of invasive Phragmites australis (common reed) in the coastal zone was created through a collaboration between the U.S. Geological Survey and Michigan Tech Research Institute (Bourgeau-Chavez et al 2013). This data set represents a revised version of that map and was created using multi-temporal PALSAR data and Landsat images from 2016-2017. In addition to Phragmites distribution, the data sets shows several land cover types including urban, agriculture, forest, shrub, emergent wetland, forested wetland, and some based on the dominant plant species (e.g., Schoenoplectus, Typha). The classified map was validated using over 400 field visits.This map covers the eastern portion of Lake Erie.

Analytic-element groundwater-flow model of the Captain Jack Superfund Site, Boulder County, Colorado

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) used an analytic-element method (AEM) modeling approach to quantitatively understand groundwater dynamics at the Captain Jack Superfund Site, located in Boulder County, Colorado. The Captain Jack Superfund Site hosts extensive interconnected underground mine workings.The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has instituted a remedial strategy of impounding water within the mine workings behind a hydraulic bulkhead in May 2018. The AEM is a grid-less modeling framework where multiple hydrologic stressors may be superimposed upon one another, resulting in a prediction of the bulk system response. This screening-level model could be used for evaluation of boundary conditions, hydraulic properties, and hydrologic compartmentalization and uses a probabilistic approach wherein uncertainty in multiple boundary conditions and hydraulic properties may be tested. The model is not expected to reproduce all observed water levels exactly, but instead is used to provide a framework for future data collection and modeling. This model archive contains model code, inputs, and example outputs for a single simulated scenario. The AEM for the Captain Jack Superfund Site was constructed in the Python programming language.  This USGS data release contains all of the input and output files for the simulations described in the associated journal article (https://doi.org/10.1007/s12665-023-10797-3)
