BS_Q26.TIF - Bering Sea U.S. EEZ GLORIA sidescan-sonar data mosaic (26 of 30) (LCC, 50 m, Clarke1866)

In 1984, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Office of Marine Geology, launched a program using the Geological LOng-Range Inclined Asdic (GLORIA) sidescan-sonar system to study the entire U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). From 1986 through 1989, the USGS and IOS (Institute of Oceanographic Sciences, U.K.) scientists conducted several surveys within the U.S. EEZ off Alaska. Four surveys during that time period (1986-1987) focused on the Bering Sea region. The results of these surveys were 30 digital mosaics of a 3 degree by 2 degree area with a 50-meter pixel resolution.

Post-wildfire debris-flow monitoring data, Arroyo Seco, 2009 Station Fire, Los Angeles County, California, November 2009 to March 2010.

This data release includes time-series data from a monitoring site located in a small drainage basin in the Arroyo Seco watershed in Los Angeles County, CA, USA (N3788964 E389956, UTM Zone 11, NAD83). The site was established after the 2009 Station Fire and recorded a series debris flows in the first winter after the fire. The data include three types of time-series:  
(1) 1-minute time series of rainfall, soil water content, channel bed pore pressure and temperature, and flow stage recorded by radar and laser distance meters (ArroyoSecoContinuous.csv);  
(2) 10-Hz time series of flow stage recorded by the laser distance meter during rain storms (ArroyoSecoStormLaser.csv), and  
(3) 2-second time series of rainfall and channel bed pore pressure and temperature during rain storms (ArroyoSecoStormPressureRain.csv).  
The laser and radar distance meters are suspended above the pore pressure sensor mounted in the bedrock of the channel. The equations for converting the distance measurements into flow stage above the pressure sensor (or stage of the stationary bed surface during times of no flow) are given by the equations 
Stage_laser (meters) = 2.107 meters – Distance_laser (meters), and 
Stage_radar (meters) = 2.156 meters – Distance_radar (feet)*0.3048 
Details of this study are described in the journal article:

Great Lakes Commercial Fishing Catches 1929-2013

Since 1971 the Great Lakes Science Center (GLSC), formerly known as the National Fishery Center-Great Lakes (National Biological Service), the Great Lakes Fishery Laboratory (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service)(FWS/GLFL), and the Ann Arbor Biological Laboratory (Bureau of Commercial Fisheries), have acted as repositories for the processing, reporting, and storage of U.S. Great Lakes commercial fishery statistics. The GLSC prepares annual summaries of these data for use by federal and state resource managers and other interested public and private organizations. The data collection system was organized in 1926 by Dr. John Van Oosten of the Bureau of Fisheries
and was first put to use by the State of Michigan in 1927. Commercial
fishermen licensed by that state were required to submit daily fishing
reports indicating gear used and amount of catch. In succeeding years
the system was improved and expanded until by 1950 all the Great Lakes states and the Province of Ontario, Canada, had similar systems.

Migration Stopovers of Elk in the East Shasta Valley Herd in California

The East Shasta Valley sub-herd of Rocky Mountain elk (Cervus canadensis nelsoni) spend most of their time on private ranchlands in Shasta Valley in the winter. This area offers patches of oak woodlands and grasslands on gentle slopes. In the spring, elk migrate to their summer range around Grass Lake, Bull Meadows, and Deer Mountain where the habitat is primarily characterized by mixed conifer timber stands of Ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa), lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) and Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii). The meadows around Grass Lake seem especially important to this sub-herd, as neonatal calves have been documented in this area since at least 1984 (Fischer 1987). Some animals from this sub-herd migrate into Oregon or move eastward to other sub-herds, but Highway 97 presents a significant barrier to this movement with many documented vehicle collisions between Horsethief Creek, and Grass Lake Summit. A wildlife crossing is proposed for this area to promote habitat connectivity and wildlife movement.
These data provide the location of migration stopovers for elk in the East Shasta Valley population in California. They were developed from 59 migration sequences collected from a sample size of 18 animals comprising GPS locations collected every 3-8 hours.

Digitized oil and gas pads in the Piceance Basin of Western Colorado in 2005 based on a sample from 2015 data

Digitization of a selection of oil and gas well pad sites in the Piceance region of Western Colorado. A random sample of 146 pad locations from the "Digitized Piceance Oil and Gas Pads of Western Colorado, 2015" were used to identify the locations digitized in this dataset. The 146 polygons spatially intersect polygons in the 2015 shape file, but are not completely contained within the 2015 polygons. Well pad sites were delineated using a modified version of the Rapid Land Cover Mapping protocol (Preston and Kim, 2016). The base imagery used to delineate boundaries is the 2005 National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) imagery.

Shot point navigation at even 500 shot intervals for EdgeTech SB-512i chirp seismic-reflection data collected by the U.S. Geological Survey offshore of Massachusetts within Vineyard Sound by the U.S. Geological Survey in 2009, 2010, and 2011 (VS_SeismicShot_500, ESRI Point Shapefile, Geographic, WGS84).

These data were collected under a cooperative agreement with the Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management (CZM) and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Coastal and Marine Geology Program, Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center (WHSC). Initiated in 2003, the primary objective of this program is to develop regional geologic framework information for the management of coastal and marine resources. Accurate data and maps of sea-floor geology are important first steps toward protecting fish habitat, delineating marine resources, and assessing environmental changes due to natural or human impacts. The project is focused on the inshore waters of coastal Massachusetts, primarily in water depths of 3-30 meters deep. Data collected for the mapping cooperative have been released in a series of USGS Open-File Reports (http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/project-pages/coastal_mass/). The data collected in the study area located in Vineyard Sound, Massachusetts includes high-resolution geophysics (bathymetry, backscatter intensity, and seismic reflection), and ground validation (sediment samples, video tracklines, and bottom photographs). The data were collected during three separate surveys conducted between 2009 and 2011 (USGS-WHSC surveys 2009-002-FA, 2010-004-FA, and 2011-004-FA) and cover 340 square kilometers of the inner continental shelf. More information about the individual USGS surveys conducted as part of the Vineyard Sound project can be found on Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center Field Activity webpages:

Geomorphic Mapping of Fall Creek Lake, Oregon, 2016

The Middle Fork Willamette River Basin encompasses 3,548 square kilometers of western Oregon and drains to the mainstem Willamette River. Fall Creek Basin encompasses 653 square kilometers and drains to the Middle Fork Willamette River. In cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the U.S. Geological Survey evaluated geomorphic responses to dam operations at Fall Creek Lake in which lake levels are temporarily lowered to streambed each fall or winter to facilitate downstream passage of juvenile spring Chinook salmon. Reservoir erosion during these streambed drawdown operations results in sediment delivery to downstream reaches. This study of geomorphic change is focused on the major alluvial channel segments downstream of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers dams on Fall Creek and the Middle Fork Willamette River, as well as the 7.36 square kilometers Fall Creek Lake. This mapping, along with analyses of topographic change, were carried out to better understand patterns and processes of erosion within the reservoir that occur during streambed drawdowns and how they may relate to geomorphic changes in downstream reaches.
This dataset consists of a single GIS layer defining the reservoir spatial domains, landforms, and substrates within the Fall Creek Lake reservoir. For this study, the reservoir mapping area boundary was defined by elevation, encompassing all landforms within maximum pool elevation of 254 meters (North American Vertical Datum of 1988) and extends about 10 kilometers from Fall Creek Dam  upstream to Big Fall Creek Road bridge. The dataset was mainly developed by digitizing from orthophotographs and digital elevation models (DEMs) created from aerial photographs collected in November 2016 and supplemented with lidar data collected in January 2012.

Particle size and portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) data from U.S. Army Base Fort Drum, Jefferson County, New York, 2024 (ver. 1.1, May 2025)

The dataset documents results from particle size analysis (PSA) and portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) analysis conducted on a suite of sediment samples from U.S. Army Base Fort Drum, Jefferson County, New York.  Samples denoted by "FD24-Sed" were collected to obtain representative samples of surficial geologic map units, and samples denoted by "FTD-WS-MW" were collected during a collaborative vibrasonic coring campaign with contractors as part of a Fort Drum Environmental Division project.
Laboratory work was conducted using sediment analysis instrumentation housed in the Bascom Laser Diffraction Sedimentology Laboratory at the U.S. Geological Survey in Reston, Virginia. Samples were first wet sieved at #230 mesh (63 µm) to determine percentages of fine and coarse material.  PSA was conducted using dry sieve analysis for samples mainly comprised of coarse material (i.e., sands); several samples were sieved at 1/4 phi intervals for investigative purposes while the remaining samples were sieved at 1/2 phi intervals for general classification.  The remaining samples, mainly comprised of silts and clays, underwent laser diffraction PSA using a Beckman Coulter LS 13 320 XR particle size analyzer.  pXRF analysis was conducted on representative subsamples from each original (unprocessed) sample using a Bruker S1 Titan instrument.
This work is a collaboration with the Fort Drum Environmental Division and was funded by the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program.
This Data Release was revised to v1.1 in April 2025 to include updated statistics data for laser diffractometry results contained therein.  No other changes to the data release were made for v1.1.
