Orthomosaic imagery for Whiskeytown Lake and surrounding area, northern California, 2019-11-12

This portion of the data release presents an RGB orthomosaic image of Whiskeytown Lake and the surrounding area derived from Structure from Motion (SfM) processing of aerial imagery acquired on 2019-11-12. The orthomosaic is available in a high-resolution 6-centimeter (cm) version, as well as a medium-resolution 25 cm version. The high-resolution version is divided into two tiles (east and west) to reduce file download sizes. All imagery is provided in a three-band cloud optimized GeoTIFF format, with 8-bit unsigned integer values compressed using high-quality JPEG compression. The raw imagery used to create the orthomosaic image was acquired from a manned aircraft on 2019-11-12. The acquisition flight was conducted by The 111th Group Aerial Photography, using a Hasselblad A6D-100c camera. The imagery was acquired from an approximate altitude of 880 meters (2,900 feet) above ground level, to produce a nominal ground sample distance (pixel size) of 5 centimeters (2 inches). An onboard dual-frequency GPS receiver was used to record the precise time and position of each image. Coordinates for ground control points consisting of photo-identifiable objects were measured independently using survey-grade post-processed kinematic (PPK) GPS.

Modeled nearshore wave parameters

This portion of the USGS data release contains simulated nearshore wave parameters derived from a stand-alone spectral wave model of the Columbia River littoral cell, Washington and Oregon. The model output includes significant wave heights, peak wave periods, mean wave directions, and water depths for a series of 221 shore normal transects that extended from the coastline to the -15 m NAVD88 elevation (about 16.5 m average water depth). Data are provided at the seaward extent of each transect as well as at the location of the break point, or location just outside the surf zone, which varied dynamically based on the local bathymetry and wave conditions. Additional data are provided at four locations corresponding to the locations of buoy observations used to validate the model application. The data are derived from two hindcasts solved at hourly intervals between 1) August 2014 to September 2023 (h1), and 2) July 2010 to August 2011 (h2). The data from both hindcasts were compiled into netCDF files for the nearshore and buoy locations for distribution.

Archive of Digitized Analog Boomer Seismic Reflection Data Collected from Lake Ponchartrain, Louisiana to Mobile Bay, Alabama, During Cruises Onboard the R/V ERDA-1, June and August, 1992

In June and August of 1992, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted geophysical surveys to investigate the shallow geologic framework from Lake Pontchartrain, Louisiana, to Mobile Bay, Alabama. This work was conducted onboard the Argonne National Laboratorys R/V ERDA-1 as part of the Mississippi/Alabama Pollution Project. This report is part of a series to digitally archive the legacy analog data collected from the Mississippi-Alabama SHelf (MASH). The MASH data rescue project is a cooperative effort by the USGS and the Minerals Management Service (MMS). This report serves as an archive of high resolution scanned Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) and Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) images of the original boomer paper records, navigation files, trackline maps, Geographic Information System (GIS) files, cruise logs, and formal Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) metadata.

Coastwide Reference Monitoring System (CRMS) 2005, 2008, 2012, and 2016 Site 0220 land-water matrix

Wetland restoration efforts conducted by the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) in Louisiana rely on monitoring efforts to determine the efficacy of these efforts. The Coastwide Reference Monitoring System (CRMS) was developed to assist in a multiple-reference approach that uses aspects of hydrogeomorphic functional assessments and probabilistic sampling for monitoring. The CRMS program includes a suite of approximately 390 sites that encompass the range of hydrological and ecological conditions for each stratum.

Traces of geologic and hydrogeologic cross sections used to develop the hydrogeologic framework model of the Death Valley regional ground-water flow system, Nevada and California

This digital dataset defines the traces of geologic and hydrogeologic cross sections that were used 
in the construction of a digital three-dimensional (3D) hydrogeologic framework model (HFM) of the 
Death Valley regional ground-water flow system (DVRFS). The HFM represents the geometry and 
extent of hydrogeologic units and major structures in an approximately 45,000 square-kilometer 
region of southern Nevada and California. The HFM was constructed from digital elevation models, 
geologic maps, borehole information, geologic and hydrogeologic cross sections, and other 3D 
models to represent the geometry of the hydrogeologic units. Cross sections from five sources 
were used as input to the HFM: (1) 28 sections of the DVRFS region, (2) six sections of southern 
Nevada and eastern California, (3) 22 sections from a hydrogeologic framework model of the Nevada 
Test Site region, (4) four sections of the Yucca Mountain area, and (5) three sections of the southern 
part of Yucca Mountain and the northern part of Amargosa Desert (Faunt and others, 2004, Chapter E, 
pages 176-179). The HFM represents principal aquifers and confining units and is an integral component 
of the DVRFS transient ground-water flow model. The DVRFS HFM and transient ground-water flow 
models are the most recent in a number of regional-scale models developed by the U.S. Geological 
Survey (USGS) for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to support investigations at the Nevada Test 
Site (NTS) and at Yucca Mountain, Nevada (see "Larger Work Citation", Chapter A, page 8).

Water-level, wind-wave, and suspended-sediment concentration (SSC) time-series data from Little Holland Tract (station HWA), Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, California, 2015

Water depth and turbidity time-series data were collected in Little Holland Tract (LHT) in 2015. Depth (from pressure) was measured in high-frequency (6 or 8 Hz) bursts. Burst means represent tidal stage, and burst data can be used to determine wave height and period. The turbidity sensors were calibrated to suspended-sediment concentration measured in water samples collected on site. The calibration and fit parameters for all of the turbidity sensors used in the study are tabulated and provided with the data. Data were sequentially added to this data release as they were collected and post-processed.
Typically, each zip folder for a deployment period contains one file from an optical backscatter sensor and two files of data from a bursting pressure sensor.

Data Release: The effects of wildfire on snow water resources estimated from canopy disturbance patterns and meteorological conditions

This data release contains model input and output data associated with a published report (The effects of wildfire on snow water resources estimated from canopy disturbance patterns and meteorological conditions [Moeser, Broxton and Harpold, 2019]) where specific descriptions of the data can be found. The input data are derived from pre- and post-fire aerial LiDAR acquired in June 2010 and May 2012 respectively, for a small basin in the Jemez Mountains, northern, New Mexico.  Data were process (analyzed?) to represent forest canopy characteristics pre- and post-fire. These characteristics include, (1) canopy closure, (2) edginess to the north, (3) edginess to the south, (4) leaf area index, (5) maximum tree height, (6) mean distance to canopy, (7) mean tree height, and (8) total gap area. Output includes Snow Water Equivalent (SWE) estimates from the SnowPALM model for pre- and post-fire conditions on a daily timestep between the 1st of September 1981 to the 31st of August 2018. All data are in a gridded format where the lower left hand corner is located at 3979325 north, and 371710 east in UTM Zone 13N with a map datum of NAD83. The grid is comprised of 1000 rows by 1100 columns with a grid cell size of 1m for a total domain size of 1.0km x 1.1km.

Quantification of Bouteloua curtipendula biomass, organic matter accumulation, and geochemical changes during growth in mining wastes

Re-vegetation of mining wastes is difficult due to the inhospitable conditions for plant growth.  Our aim was to determine whether the combined addition of municipal waste compost and plant growth promoting endophytes (i.e., microorganisms that live within plants) could improve plant growth, organic matter accumulation, and phytostabilization of metal contaminants across multiple types of hard rock mine waste. We grew a widespread perennial grass, Bouteloua curtipendula, for 45 days in tailings (Ag-Pb-Au mine) and waste rock (porphyry copper mine) sourced from southeastern Arizona, USA. We quantified organic matter accumulation, microbial biomass, plant growth rates, biomass yields, plant metal concentrations, and mine waste metal concentrations at the end of the growth experiment. These data are included within this dataset.

Processing unit used in developing the raster layers for the Hydrologic Derivatives for Modeling and Analysis (HDMA) database -- Africa

This dataset contains the processing units for the African continent from the Hydrological Derivatives for Modeling and Analysis (HDMA) database. The HDMA database provides comprehensive and consistent global coverage of raster and vector topographically derived layers, including raster layers of digital elevation model (DEM) data, flow direction, flow accumulation, slope, and compound topographic index (CTI); and vector layers of streams and catchment boundaries. The coverage of the data is global (-180º, 180º, -90º, 90º) with the underlying DEM being a hybrid of three datasets: HydroSHEDS (Hydrological data and maps based on SHuttle Elevation Derivatives at multiple Scales), Global Multi-resolution Terrain Elevation Data 2010 (GMTED2010) and the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM). For most of the globe south of 60º North, the raster resolution of the data is 3-arc-seconds, corresponding to the resolution of the SRTM. For the areas North of 60º, the resolution is 7.5-arc-seconds (the smallest resolution of the GMTED2010 dataset) except for Greenland, where the resolution is 30-arc-seconds. The streams and catchments are attributed with Pfafstetter codes, based on a hierarchical numbering system, that carry important topological information.

Rasters of Observed Aufeis Deposits Within Rivers of the 1002 Area Based on Historical Landsat Imagery, 1985-2022

These data comprise 505 unique geospatial raster datasets which describe persistent river ice (aufeis) occurrence within floodplains of select rivers and creeks in the 1002 Area of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in northern Alaska. Each raster is derived from a historical observation made by one of five Landsat satellites. Surface reflectance in the green and shortwave infrared wavelengths are used to classify the aufeis occurrence within individual pixels. Pixel values of "1" correspond to aufeis presence while "0" corresponds to its absence. Rasters are generated from cloud and snow-filtered images captured between May and September for the years 1985-2022.
