Vegetation and Water Monitoring Datasets for selected locations in the Republic of the Marshall Islands from 2017-2022

The Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) is a sovereign Small Island State in the tropical central North Pacific Ocean. RMI is a nation of more than thirty atolls and islands, most of which are inhabited, dispersed across an exclusive economic zone (EEZ) over 2 million square kilometers. This data release contains raster datasets for vegetation and water monitoring including Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Landscape Water Requirement Satisfaction Index (L-WRSI), and Soil Moisture Index (SMI) for selected locations and precipitation (dekadal (10-day) sum)  for the entire RMI from 2017-2022. These data were compiled to support a 2022-2023 U.S. Geological Survey project for developing methods to apply Earth Observation to monitor the health of vegetation in the RMI. The project was funded by the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Agency for International Development Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance.

Monthly Time Series of Precipitation, Air Temperature, and Net Radiation for 2,673 Gaged River Basins Worldwide

This is the first of two datasets containing derived data necessary to reproduce the results of the associated journal article: "On the Sensitivity of Annual Streamflow to Air Temperature." This first dataset contains basic basin characteristics of 2,673 gaged basins worldwide, along with associated monthly time series of basin-mean precipitation, air temperature, and net radiation. The streamflow data themselves are available directly from the Global Runoff Data Centre. From the inventory of discharge data holdings of the Global Runoff Data Centre, 2,673 stream gages were selected for which (1) at least 25 complete calendar years of monthly data overlapped in time with available climate data; (2) 500-m-resolution basin shapefiles were available from Global Runoff Data Centre; (3) the Global Reservoir and Dam database listed no artificial reservoirs located within the drainage basin; and (4) mean reported discharge did not exceed either of two estimates of basin precipitation by more than a factor of 10. Monthly precipitation data from the Global Precipitation Climatology Centre, both precipitation and temperature from University of East Anglia Climatic Research Unit, and net radiation data from NASA, all on 0.5-degree grids, were areally averaged over the basins.

CoSMoS (Coastal Storm Modeling System) Southern California v3.0 Phase 2 wave-hazard projections: average conditions in Ventura County

Model-derived significant wave height (in meters) for the given storm condition and sea-level rise (SLR) scenario.
The Coastal Storm Modeling System (CoSMoS) makes detailed predictions (meter-scale) over large geographic scales (100s of kilometers) of storm-induced coastal flooding and erosion for both current and future sea-level rise (SLR) scenarios. CoSMoS v3.0 for Southern California shows projections for future climate scenarios (sea-level rise and storms) to provide emergency responders and coastal planners with critical storm-hazards information that can be used to increase public safety, mitigate physical damages, and more effectively manage and allocate resources within complex coastal settings.
Model details and data sources are outlined in CoSMoS_3.0_Phase_2_Southern_California_Bight:_Summary_of_data_and_methods (available at https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/file/get/57f1d4f3e4b0bc0bebfee139?name=CoSMoS_SoCalv3_Phase2_summary_of_methods.pdf). Phase 2 data for Southern California include flood-hazard information for the coast from the border of Mexico to Pt. Conception. Several changes from Phase 1 projections are reflected in many areas; please read the Summary of methods and inspect output carefully.  Data are complete for the information presented.

Historic Water Chemistry Data for Thermal Features, Streams, and Rivers in the Yellowstone National Park Area, 1883-2021

Yellowstone National Park (YNP; Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho, USA) contains more than 10,000 hydrothermal features, several lakes, and four major watersheds. For more than 140 years, researchers at the U.S. Geological Survey and other scientific institutions have investigated the chemical compositions of hot springs, geysers, fumaroles, mud pots, streams, rivers, and lakes in YNP and surrounding areas. Water chemistry studies have revealed a range of compositions including waters with pH values ranging from about 1 to 10, surface temperatures from ambient to superheated values of 95°C, and elevated concentrations of silica, lithium, boron, fluoride, mercury, and arsenic. Hydrogeochemical data from YNP research have led to insights on subsurface conditions of temperature and chemistry, water-rock-gas interactions and processes of high-temperature mineral alteration with dissolution and precipitation, redox processes, thermophilic microbial metabolism under extreme conditions and effects of thermal water chemistry on river systems.
In this Data Release, water chemistry data for 4,918 water samples are reported for numerous thermal features, rivers, streams, lakes, drillholes, and precipitation in and around YNP. The data for these samples were originally located in 38 reports published between 1888 and 2022 and in multiple unpublished documents. Spanning more than 600 unique sampling sites throughout the YNP region, this dataset includes samples collected as early as 1883 (Gooch &amp; Whitfield, 1888) and as recently as 2021 (McCleskey, et al, 2022). The thermal features sampled most frequently include Cistern Spring (180 samples) and Echinus Geyser (73 samples) in Norris Geyser Basin and Ojo Caliente Spring (143 samples) in the Lower Geyser Basin, while more than 500 sites have 5 samples or fewer. Water chemistry data from thermal features, rivers, and streams are most represented, comprising 75% (thermal) and 17% (rivers/streams) of the dataset. Across all major areas of the park, Norris Geyser Basin has been sampled more than any other basin, with more than 1,100 samples reported in this dataset.

Slab2 - A Comprehensive Subduction Zone Geometry Model, Himalaya Region

Subduction zones are home to the most seismically active faults on the planet. The shallow megathrust interface of subduction zones host our largest earthquakes, and are the only faults capable of M9+ ruptures. Despite these facts, our knowledge of subduction zone geometry - which likely plays a key role in determining the spatial extent and ultimately the size of subduction zone earthquakes - is incomplete. Here we calculate the three- dimensional geometries of all active global subduction zones. The resulting model - Slab2 - provides for the first time a comprehensive geometrical analysis of all known slabs in unprecedented detail.

Historical video footage of Mount St. Helens volcano, May 18-Dec 31, 1980

This data release contains digital video files from the USGS of Mount St. Helens volcano in the months leading up to the cataclysmic eruption on May 18, 1980 as well as the first two years of the eruption. Original videos were collected on an assortment of cameras and film types, including 16 mm, 8 mm and Super 8 mm during USGS field campaigns on the ground as well as from the air and on time-lapse camera stations setup around the volcano. Videos capture USGS crews collecting data as well as an assortment of volcanic processes, including dome growth, ash emissions, rockslides, and pyroclastic flows. These film records represent a tremendous resource to the volcanology community as they represent visual recordings of a truly remarkable event in history. The analog film reels were digitized through funding from the USGS National Geological and Geophysical Data Preservation Program (NGGDPP) to reduce the risk of data loss and to make these visual recordings accessible and available in a modern digital format.
Video clips are organized into 4 sections: March 28-May 17, 1980; May 18-Dec 31, 1980; 1981; 1982. Each video is labeled by YYYY_MM_DD_USGS and categorized by either FW = fieldwork, TL = timelapse, or MISC = miscellaneous.

Low-altitude aerial imagery collected from a Helikite at Head of the Meadow Beach, Truro, MA on March 20, 2024

The data in this release re-map the beach and nearshore environment at Head of the Meadow Beach in Truro, MA and provide updated environmental context for the 2020 CoastCam installation that looks out at the coast shared by beachgoers, shorebirds, seals, and sharks. This is a collaboration with the National Park Service at Cape Cod National Seashore to monitor the region that falls within the field of view of CoastCam CACO-01, which are two video cameras aimed at the beach. In February and March 2024, U.S. Geological Survey and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) scientists conducted field surveys to collect topographic and bathymetric data. Images of the beach for use in structure-from-motion were taken with a camera (SONY a6000) attached to a helium powered balloon-kite (Helikite). High-precision GPS 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 surface vehicle. Agisoft Metashape (v. 2.1.0) was used to create a digital surface model and orthomosaic with the collected imagery.

EC_Q13.TIF - U.S. Atlantic East Coast EEZ GLORIA sidescan-sonar data mosaic (13 of 23) (ACEA, 50 m, Clarke1866)

From February to May 1987 the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted five cruises to cover the U.S. Atlantic Continental Margin Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) seaward of the continental shelf edge, and from the Canadian border southward to the northern Blake Plateau off Florida. 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 seafloor. Twenty-three digital mosaics of a 2 degree by 2 degree (or smaller) area with a 50-meter pixel resolution were completed for the U.S. Atlantic Continental Margin region.

Chloride-specific conductance regression model forms for estimating high-frequency chloride concentrations

The file "Chloride_specific_conductance_regression_model_forms_for_estimating_high-frequency_chloride_concentrations.csv"  contains the regression equation forms for two types of regressions: 1) single linear  (SLR) and 2) piecewise (or segmented; SEG) regression between specific conductance (SC) and chloride (Cl) concentrations for 56 USGS water-quality monitoring stations across the eastern United States, plus four regional regressions developed by pooling data for sites within a region (see Moore and others (in review)   for more information). Some sites, and all regions, have both SLR and SEG models reported in this table.  The analysis included in the Moore and others (in review) study used results from the SLR models if those are the only model reported, or the SEG models are both reported.  This data set includes the slope, intercept, model correlation coefficient (R2) and the number of observations used to develop the regression equation for the SLR models.  For the SEG models, information on the slopes and intercepts for the two linear segments are included in addition to the coefficient of determination (R2) and number of observations.  Breakpoint estimates (the point separating the two line segments) and uncertainties are only reported for the SEG models.
