Polygon locations and contributing area for 312 gaged basins, used to estimate runoff and baseflow using six hydrograph-separation methods, in the Northwest Volcanic Aquifer Study Area, USA.

The U.S. Geological Survey’s Water Availability and Use Study Program (WAUSP) (https://water.usgs.gov/ogw/gwrp/activities/regional.html) supports quantitative assessments of groundwater availability in areas of critical importance. As part of a WAUSP study in the arid to semi-arid Northwest Volcanic Aquifer Study Area (NVASA), estimates of runoff and baseflow were determined for 312 streamflow-gaging stations from 1904 to 2015. Gages with complete water years (October to September) of continuous-streamflow record were used to partition streamflow into runoff and baseflow, which is that part of streamflow attributed to groundwater discharge. For each water year annual estimates of baseflow, runoff, and a base-flow index were determined using a series of automated hydrograph separation programs—PART, HYSEP, and BFI. These streamflow-hydrograph analysis methods are available in the U.S. Geological Survey Groundwater Toolbox (https://water.usgs.gov/ogw/gwtoolbox/), which is a graphical, mapping and analysis interface built within an open-source MapWindow geography information system in a Windows computing environment.

Water-quality data collected for Kewaunee County, Wisconsin

We deployed a sampler to characterize water quality from a household well tapping a shallow fractured dolomite aquifer in northeast Wisconsin. The sampler was deployed from January to May 2017, and monitored temperature, nitrate, chloride, specific conductance, and fluorescent dissolved organic matter on a minute time step; water was directed to sequential microbial filters during three recharge periods that ranged from 5 to 20 days. Results from the automated sampler demonstrate the dynamic nature of the household water quality, especially with regard to microbial targets, which were shown to vary 1 to 2 orders of magnitude during a single sampling event. We believe assessments of pathogen occurrence and concentration, and related assessments of drinking well vulnerability, would be improved by the time-integrated characterization provided by this sampler. This data release provides the data collected during this study and use for analyses described by Owens et al., 2018.

Frass Length Measurements during Caged Sampler Type Comparisons

We designed two new samplers for monitoring airborne particulates, including fungal and fern spores and plant pollen, that rely on natural wind currents (Passive Environmental Sampler) or a battery operated fan (Active Environmental Sampler). Both samplers are modeled after commercial devices such as the Rotorod® and the Burkard® samplers, but are more economical and require less maintenance than commercial devices. We compared our two new samplers to Rotorod® samplers using Xyleborus spp. boring dust (frass) known to contain fungi responsible for Rapid Ohia Death. The comparison was done in a large outdoor field cage to determine relative effectiveness of the three samplers for capturing windblown boring dust. The dataset contains measurements of boring dust particles that were captured by the three types of samples over the course of twelve trials.

Ceratocystis lukuohia spore dilution for probit analysis

Environmental DNA (eDNA) detection tools are becoming increasingly popular for documenting occurrence and distribution of native and invasive species. These tools can allow early detection of new diseases and invasive species and provide critical information for land management. We designed two new samplers for monitoring airborne particulates, including fungal and fern spores and plant pollen, that rely on natural wind currents (Passive Environmental Sampler) or a battery operated fan (Active Environmental Sampler). This dataset contains results of an experiment that was designed to determine probability of detecting known numbers of Ceratocystis lukuohia spores on individual slides in these samplers.

Using Evironmental Samplers to Detect Ceratocystis Fungi in Orchidland 2016

Rapid ʽŌhiʽa Death (ROD) currently threatens ōhiʽa lehua (Metrosideros polymorpha) on Hawaiʽi Island. First identified in Puna in 2014, the disease has now spread island wide. Besides direct sampling of trees, environmental sampling could serve as an easier and broader strategy to detect Ceratocystis spp., the fungi causing Rapid Ohia Death (ROD). Envrionmental sampling could also help monitor the effect of felling ROD infected trees. We developed Passive and Active Environmental Samplers for collecting airborne particulates and deployed them at a property in Puna, where both C. lukuohia, and C. huliohia had been detected, and where the land owner practiced the management method of felling infected trees. We set up 2 Active Environmental Samplers (modified mosquito traps connected to a battery that uses a fan to continuously draw in air) and 3 Passive Environmental Samplers (uses a vane to move in the direction of the wind without the use of electricity) from July 12th to October 25th, 2016. The Active Traps contained one slide (1 replicate) each, while the Passive Traps contained 4 slides (4 replicates) each. Wind and precipitation data from a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Agency (NOAA) weather station at the Hilo airport was used in analysis. The dataset contains a list of sampling weeks, their start and end dates, and whether or not tree felling occurred during that week.

Data for Rupture Model of the 2016 M5.8 Pawnee, Oklahoma Earthquake

The 2016 M5.8 Pawnee, Oklahoma earthquake is the largest earthquake to have been induced by wastewater disposal. We infer the coseismic slip history from analysis of apparent source time functions and inversion of regional and teleseismic P-waveforms, using aftershocks as empirical Green’s functions. The earthquake nucleated on the shallow part of the fault, initially rupturing towards the surface, followed shortly thereafter by slip deeper on the fault. Deeper slip occurred below the aftershocks and at greater depths than most induced seismicity in the region, suggesting that small- to moderate-sized earthquakes may not occur on deeper parts of faults in Oklahoma because they are further from failure than shallower fault sections. Comparisons with models of pore pressure perturbations further suggest that the earthquake may have initiated within a region of higher pore pressure perturbation but was not confined to this zone. These observations inform source physics and understanding of maximum magnitudes. Supporting information for this publication, including catalog of earthquake locations and magnitudes, and final coseismic slip distribution are provided herein.

Topography at Select Dams in the Mark Twain National Forest, Missouri, 2018

The U.S. Department of Agriculture - Forest Service (USDA-FS) has been evaluating hazards and classifications at the dams of four small reservoirs in the Mark Twain National Forest in Missouri.  These reservoirs are Crane Lake near Annapolis, Fourche Lake near Briar, McCormack Lake near Greer, and Sterling Hollow Lake near Willow Springs. Conventional topographic surveys were used to provide data needed for as-built information of the earthen dam structure, spillways, and groins at each of the dams. High-resolution terrestrial light detection and ranging (T-LiDAR) data also were collected for the concrete spillway structure at Crane Lake Dam to provide baseline data for potential monitoring and change detection.
