2020 Cartographic Boundary File (KML), 2020 Census Urban Areas for United States, 1:500,000

The 2020 cartographic boundary KMLs are simplified representations of selected geographic areas from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). These boundary files are specifically designed for small-scale thematic mapping. When possible, generalization is performed with the intent to maintain the hierarchical relationships among geographies and to maintain the alignment of geographies within a file set for a given year. Geographic areas may not align with the same areas from another year. Some geographies are available as nation-based files while others are available only as state-based files.

After each decennial census, the Census Bureau delineates urban areas that represent densely developed territory, encompassing residential, commercial, and other nonresidential urban land uses. In general, this territory consists of areas of high population density and urban land use resulting in a representation of the urban footprint. There are 2,644 Urban Areas (UAs) in this data release with either a minimum population of 5,000 or a housing unit count of 2,000 units. Each urban area is identified by a 5-character numeric census code that may contain leading zeroes.

        This file includes revisions made to the 2020 Census New Orleans, LA Urban Area where the territory originally delineated as the 2020 Census Laplace--Lutcher--Gramercy, LA Urban Area was combined with the 2020 Census New Orleans, LA Urban Area to form the current New Orleans, LA Urban Area.

        This file includes revisions made to the 2020 Census Atlanta, GA Urban Area and Gainesville, GA Urban Area, where some urban territory originally designated to the Gainesville, GA Urban Area was reassigned to the Atlanta, GA Urban Area.

Dynamically Downscaled Projections of Phenological Changes across the Contiguous United States

This study examines how phenological indicators, which track the life cycles of plants and animals, could change from 2025–2100 as simulated in a regional climate model over the contiguous U.S.  Chilling units quantify the presence of cooler weather that can benefit plants prior to their growing season.  They are projected to decrease in the southern U.S., possibly inhibiting agricultural production.  Spring onset is projected to occur earlier in the year, advancing by 1–4 days on average over each future decade.  Risk of false springs (damaging hard freezes after spring onset) increases in the western U.S.  Our findings highlight the need to understand effects of climate change during transitional seasons, which can impact agriculture and ecosystems.

40Ar/39Ar geochronology data from the Tanacross and Eagle quadrangles, Alaska

40Ar/39Ar geochronology data from the Tanacross and Eagle quadrangles, Alaska, Raw Data File 2023-23, provides 40Ar/39Ar geochronology data from igneous and metamorphic rocks in or adjacent to the DGGS Western Tanacross and Taylor Mountain geologic mapping project areas. Western Tanacross and Taylor Mountain geologic mapping projects aim to produce more accurate and integrated modern geologic maps and supporting datasets to promote mineral resource exploration in eastern Interior Alaska. The Tanacross and southern Eagle quadrangles are within the Yukon Tanana Uplands, which DGGS and USGS identified as having the potential to host deposits of multiple critical minerals, as well as gold, copper, molybdenum, lead, zinc, and silver. Most of the known mineralization in the region is related to Mesozoic-Paleogene magmatism. Igneous rocks intrude a composite metamorphic province that includes parautochthonous North America and the allochthonous Yukon Tanana Terrane, which are multiply deformed and apparently juxtaposed along low-angle faults. Samples were collected (2009, 2018, 2019, 2021) for 40Ar/39Ar geochronology to understand the crystallization ages of igneous rocks, the exhumation history of metamorphic rocks, and the timing of mineralization. The 22 40Ar/39Ar ages reported here include six mineralization/alteration ages, one volcanic crystallization age, seven metamorphic cooling ages from the Yukon-Tanana terrane (YTT), and eight metamorphic cooling ages from parautochthonous North American rocks (pNA). The analytical data tables associated with this report are available in digital format as comma-separated value (CSV) files. These data are available from the DGGS website: http://doi.org/10.14509/31085.

Geologic map of Okmok Volcano

Geologic map of Okmok Volcano, Report of Investigation 2023-1, provides 40Ar/39Ar and radiocarbon geochronology data from Okmok Volcano and its eruptive products. Okmok Volcano is one of 54 historically active volcanoes in the Alaska-Aleutian volcanic arc that stretches across southern mainland Alaska and the Aleutian Islands. Okmok Volcano dominates the northeastern portion of Umnak Island, which is 100 km southwest of Unalaska/Dutch Harbor and 1,400 km southwest of Anchorage. Okmok Volcano is one of the most frequently active volcanoes in the Aleutian volcanic arc. In 1998, the Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO) began a multi-year effort to expand geophysical monitoring in the central Aleutians Islands, including at Okmok Volcano. These data support the development of a modern geologic map of Okmok Volcano and related investigation of its eruptive history and hazards. The analytical data tables associated with this report are provided in digital format as comma-separated value (CSV) files. They are available from the DGGS website: http://doi.org/10.14509/31015.

Designated Wetlands in Iowa

This dataset highlights wetlands designated for protection in the State of Iowa.

Designated wetland is defined in Iowa Code subsection 459.102(21) as follows:
21. "Designated wetland" means land designated as a protected wetland by the United States Department of the Interior or the Department of Natural Resources, including but not limited to a protected wetland as defined in section 456B.1, if the land is owned and managed by the federal government or the Department of Natural Resources. However, a designated wetland does not include land where an agricultural drainage well has been plugged causing a temporary wetland or land within a drainage district or levee district.

As referenced in the foregoing definition, protected wetland is defined in Iowa Code subsection 456B.1(4) as follows:
4. "Protected wetlands" means type 3, type 4, and type 5 wetlands as described in circular 39, Wetlands of the United States, 1971 Edition, published by the United States Department of the Interior. However, a protected wetland does not include land where an agricultural drainage well has been plugged causing a temporary wetland or land within a drainage district or levee district.

Iowa Code paragraph 459.310(1)(b) provides:

b. A confinement feeding operation structure shall not be constructed if the confinement feeding operation structure as constructed is closer than any of the following:

Five hundred (500) feet away from a water source other than a major water source.

(2) One thousand (1,000) feet away from a major water source.

(3) Two thousand five hundred (2,500) feet away from a designated wetland.

Separation distances apply to all confinement feeding operations regardless of size and whether a permit is needed.

Open feedlots are separate and do not have any separation distances.

If there is already a confinement within 2,500 feet of an existing wetland, it will not prevent the designation from occurring. For separation distances to other items (neighbors, towns, parks, etc.) - the confinement is grand fathered in since it was there before the separation distance was expanded. It will work similarly in this case - a confinement could be there and be exempt from the 2,500 foot separation distance since it was there before the separation distance was imposed. But no new confinements would be allowed in the 2,500 feet once the designation takes place.

A designated wetland will not be "established" if closer than 2,500 feet of an existing confinement. Any wetlands created or restored on state or federal lands within 2,500 feet of an existing confinement will not be eligible for designation.

These separation distances do not apply If the Confinement Animal Feeding Operation Structure includes construction of a secondary containment barrier
