COW_Q06.TIF - U.S. Pacific West Coast EEZ GLORIA sidescan-sonar data mosaic (6 of 36) (TM, 50 m, NAD27)

In March 1983, President Ronald Reagan signed a proclamation establishing an Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of the United States extending its territory 200 nautical miles from the coasts of the United States, Puerto Rico, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the U.S. territories and possessions. In 1984, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Office of Marine Geology began a program to map these areas of the EEZ. The U.S. Pacific Coast was the first EEZ region to be mapped and launched GLORIA (Geological LOng-Range Inclined Asdic) mapping program. The area covered by this survey extended from the Mexican to the Canadian borders and from the continental shelf edge, at about the 400-meter bathymetric contour, to 200 nautical miles from the coast. Survey of the U.S. Pacific West Coast EEZ was completed in four consecutive cruises conducted from late April through mid-August 1984. The collected GLORIA data were processed and digitally mosaicked to produce continuous imagery of the seafloor. A total of 36 digital mosaics of an approximate 2 degree by 2 degree (or smaller) area with a 50-meter pixel resolution were completed for the region.

ALEU_250M_LCC_WGS84.TIF - Aleutian Arc U.S. EEZ GLORIA sidescan-sonar composite mosaic (LCC, 250 m, WGS84)

During late July through September 1987 and June and July 1988 the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted four cruises to cover the U.S. Aleutian Arc Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) region. As in earlier EEZ reconnaissance surveys, the USGS utilized the GLORIA (Geological LOng-Range Inclined Asdic) sidescan-sonar system to complete the geologic mapping. The collected GLORIA data were processed and digitally mosaicked to produce continuous imagery of the sea-floor. Thirty-one digital mosaics of a 3 degree by 3 degree (or smaller) area with a 50-meter pixel resolution were completed for the U.S. Aleutian Arc Exclusive Economic Zone region.

Ground control point, navigation, and elevation data from pole surveys at Head of the Meadow Beach, Truro during field activity 2020-015-FA on March 4 and 6, 2020

The data in this release map the beach and nearshore environment at Head of the Meadow Beach in Truro, MA and provide environmental context for the camera calibration information for the 2019 CoastCam installation that looks out at the coast shared by beachgoers, shorebirds, seals, and sharks. This is related to the field activity 2020-015-FA and a collaboration with the National Park Service at Cape Cod National Seashore to monitor the region that falls within the field of view of the CoastCam, which are two video cameras aimed at the beach. On March 4, 6, and 10, 2020, U.S Geological Survey and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) scientists conducted field surveys to collect position and orientation information for the CoastCam cameras and map the field of view. Elevation data were collected using a real time kinematic – satellite navigation system (RTK-GNSS) receiver attached to a pole and walked on the beach. Point data of the beach face were collected along transects and at periodic locations of plywood targets moved throughout the day within the CoastCam view. Grain-size analysis was performed on sediment samples collected with a spade along multiple profiles from the bluff base to the intertidal zone. Images of the beach were taken with a camera (Ricoh GRII) and a post-processed kinematic (PPK) system attached to a kitesurfing kite, and high-precision targets (AeroPoints) were used as ground control points. Bathymetry was collected in the nearshore using a single-beam echosounder mounted on a surf capable self-righting electric autonomous survey vehicle. Agisoft Metashape (v. 1.6.1) was used to create a digital elevation model with the collected imagery and this was merged with the bathymetry in MatLab (v. 2020) to create a continuous topobathy product.

Coastal bathymetry data collected between 2008 and 2009 offshore of the Mississippi and Alabama barrier islands: Processed elevation point data

During the summers of 2008 and 2009 the United States Geological Survey (USGS) conducted bathymetric surveys from West Ship Island, Mississippi, to Dauphin Island, Alabama, as part of the Northern Gulf of Mexico (NGOM) Ecosystem Change and Hazard Susceptibility project. The survey area extended from the shoreline out to approximately two kilometers and included the adjacent passes. These findings were originally published in Dewitt and others (2012).  This USGS data release includes updated elevation point data (xyz) in which NOAA's Vdatum version 3.6 was used convert the 2008-2009 XYZ soundings to Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83) horizontal datum and North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88) GEOID12B vertical datum. One goal of this work was to create time-series of bathymetric change maps around the islands using data collected between 1916 to 1920, 2008 to 2009, and in 2016.

Klamath Basin Restoration Agreement Off-Project Water Program Distance to Gaining Streams and Lakes

The Klamath Basin Restoration Agreement (KBRA) was developed by a diverse group of stakeholders, 
Federal and State resource management agencies, Tribal representatives, and interest groups to provide 
a comprehensive solution to ecological and water-supply issues in the Klamath Basin. The Off-Project 
Water Program (OPWP), one component of the KBRA, has as one of its purposes to permanently 
provide an additional 30,000 acre-feet of water per year on an average annual basis to Upper Klamath 
Lake through “voluntary retirement of water rights or water uses or other means as agreed to by the 
Klamath Tribes, to improve fisheries habitat and also provide for stability of irrigation water deliveries.” 
The geographic area where the water rights could be retired encompasses approximately 1,900 square 
miles. The OPWP area is defined as including the Sprague River drainage, the Sycan River drainage 
downstream of Sycan Marsh, the Wood River drainage, and the Williamson River drainage from Kirk 
Reef at the southern end of Klamath Marsh downstream to the confluence with the Sprague River. 
Extensive, broad, flat, poorly drained uplands, valleys, and wetlands characterize much of the study 
area. Irrigation is almost entirely used for pasture.

50-Meter Digital Elevation Model of Coastal Bathymetry Collected in 2011 from the Chandeleur Islands, Louisiana (U.S. Geological Survey Field Activity Numbers 11BIM01 and 11BIM02)

As part of the Barrier Island Evolution Research Project, scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center conducted nearshore geophysical surveys off the northern Chandeleur Islands, Louisiana, in June of 2011. The overall objectives of the study are to better understand barrier-island geomorphic evolution, particularly storm-related depositional and erosional processes that shape the islands over annual to interannual timescales (1-5 years). Collection of geophysical data will allow us to identify relationships between the geologic history of the island and its present day morphology and sediment distribution. This mapping effort was the first in a series of three planned surveys in this area. High resolution geophysical data collected in each of three consecutive years along this rapidly changing barrier-island system will provide a unique time-series dataset that will significantly further the analyses and geomorphological interpretations of this and other coastal systems, improving our understanding of coastal response and evolution over short time scales (1-5 years).
This report serves as an archive of processed interferometric swath and single-beam bathymetry data that were collected during two cruises (USGS Field Activity Numbers 11BIM01 and 11BIM02) along the northern portion of the Chandeleur Islands, Breton National Wildlife Refuge, Louisiana, in June of 2011. Geographic information system data products include a 50 m-cell-size interpolated bathymetry grid surface, trackline maps, and point data files. Additional files include error analysis maps, Field Activity Collection System logs, and formal Federal Geographic Data Committee metadata.

Raw Continuous Resistivity Profiles Collected in the Neuse River, May 3, 2005

The Neuse River Estuary in North Carolina is a broad, V-shaped water body located on the southwestern end of Pamlico Sound. This estuary suffers from severe eutrophication for which several water quality models have recently been developed to aid in the management of nutrient loading to the estuary. In an effort to help constrain model estimates of the fraction of nutrients delivered by direct ground-water discharge, continuous resistivity profile (CRP) measurements were made during the spring of 2004 and 2005. CRP is used to measure electrical resistivity of sediments, a property that is sensitive to difference in salinity of submarine ground water. The 2004 and 2005 surveys used floating resistivity streamers of 100 m and 50 m respectively. The depth penetration of the streamers is approximately 20% of the streamer length which translates to approximately 20-25 m with the 100 m streamer and 12-14 m with the 50 m streamer. These data were processed using AGI's EarthImager 2D software. CRP data enables the mapping of the extent and depth of the fresher ground water within the estuary.
