Swath derived bathymetric grids of Lostmans and Lower Shark Rivers, Florida (2015) in Esri ASCII grid format

High resolution bathymetry mapping of the coastal rivers and inland lakes along the Southwest coast of Everglades National Park (ENP) is greatly needed from the perspective of resource mapping and future research and hydrologic modeling efforts.  To this end, bathymetric surveys of 8 coastal rivers were completed in 2004 as part of a cooperative project between the US Geological Survey (USGS) and the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD). Recent analyses of geo_databases from the project in 2004 shows that Lostmans River and several segments of Shark River remained to be mapped.  Completed surveys for these areas will provide and invaluable and complete set of bathymetric surveys of coastal rivers along the Southwest coast of ENP.
This report serves as an archive of processed interferometric swath bathymetry data that were collected during one cruise (USGS Field Activity Numbers 2015_304_FA) in Lower Shark River, Florida. Geographic information system data products include: a 5 m_cell_size interpolated bathymetry grid surface and point data files. Also included in this archive are Geographic Information System (GIS) data products: gridded map data (in Esri binary and ASCII grid format), and a color_coded bathymetry map (in PDF format).  Additional files include Field Activity Collection System logs, and formal Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) metadata.

Hydrographic Surveys at Plattsmouth chute, 2011-13

An Innerspace 456 single-beam echosounder in conjunction with a Trimble® differential Global 
Positioning System (DGPS), HYPACK® navigation software, and Ashtech Z-Xtreme and 
Trimble® R8 Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receivers was used to survey 7 
chutes and 3 backwaters on the Missouri River yearly from 2011-13. These chutes and 
backwaters are located on the Missouri River between Newcastle, Nebraska and Rulo, 
Nebraska in the States of Nebraska, Iowa, and Missouri.  Surveys of chutes consisted 
of topographic and bathymetric data collected along transects spaced 30.48 m apart 
from high bank to high bank.  Surveys of backwaters consisted of topographic and 
bathymetric data collected along a transect grid of 76.2 m spacing. The data were 
collected by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps 
of Engineers (USACE) Omaha District as part of the Missouri River Habitat 
Assessment and Monitoring Program.

Georeferenced Scans of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) T-Sheets Collected Along the New Jersey Coastline from 1839-1875

Historical shoreline surveys were conducted by the National Ocean Service (NOS), dating back to the early 1800s. The maps resulting from these surveys, often called t-sheets, provide a reference of historical shoreline position that can be compared to modern data to identify shoreline change. The t-sheets are stored at the National Archives and many have been scanned by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and are available on the NOAA Shoreline Web site (http://www.shoreline.noaa.gov/data/datasheets/t-sheets.html). While some scanned t-sheets were georeferenced and digitized by NOAA, still others remain as non-georeferenced raster files (http://nosimagery.noaa.gov/images/shoreline_surveys/survey_scans/NOAA_Shoreline_Survey_Scans.html).
New_Jersey_1839_75_t-sheets.zip features 8 georeferenced raster t-sheets for the New Jersey coastline from 1839 to 1875. The data were scanned by NOAA, but were not georeferenced. The t-sheets included in this data release are: T-121 (1839), T-119 Part 1 (1841), T-1084 (1868), T-1166 (1870), T-1333 (1871), T-1315a (1872), T-1371 (1874), T-1407 (1875). Digital files were georeferenced, corrected to a modern datum, and shorelines digitized to provide a vector polyline depicting the historical shoreline position using ArcGIS 10.3.1. GEoreferenced t-sheets were used to delineate and shorelines for use in long-term shoreline and wetland analyses for Hurricane Sandy wetland physical change assessment.

1:750,000-scale hydrographic areas and basin-wide pumpage, recharge and interbasin flow estimates of Nevada

This data set consists of the administrative hydrographic area (HA) boundaries for Nevada at 1:750,000-scale 
and estimates of natural recharge, artificial recharge, pumpage, and net ground-water flow for each basin 
where the information is available.  Formal hydrographic areas in Nevada were delineated systematically 
by the U.S. Geological Survey and Nevada Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Division 
of Water Resources (NDWR) in the late 1960's (Rush, 1968; Cardinalli and others, 1968) for scientific 
and administrative purposes.  The official hydrographic area names, numbers, and geographic boundaries 
continue to be used in U.S. Geological Survey scientific reports and NDWR administrative activities.  
Although the boundary lines between hydrographic areas generally coincide with true topographic basin 
divides, some of the lines are arbitrary divisions that have no topographic control. The pumpage, recharge, 
and interbasin flow estimates were derived from a variety of sources and methods.  The data were tabulated 
and published by Lopes and Evetts in 2004.

1999 Fall Texas USGS/NASA/NOAA ATM Lidar-Derived Dune Crest, Toe and Shoreline

The Storm-Induced Coastal Change Hazards component of the National Assessment of Coastal Change Hazards project focuses on understanding the magnitude and variability of extreme storm impacts on sandy beaches. Lidar-derived beach morphologic features such as dune crest, toe and shoreline help define the vulnerability of the beach to storm impacts. This dataset defines the elevation and position of the seaward-most dune crest and toe and the mean high water shoreline derived from the 1999 Fall Gulf Coast (Texas) NOAA/USGS/NASA lidar survey. Beach width is included and is defined as the distance between the dune toe and shoreline along a cross-shore profile. The beach slope is calculated using this beach width and the elevation of the shoreline and dune toe.

EAARL Topography-Fire Island National Seaashore

A first return elevation map (also known as a Digital Elevation Model or DEM) of Fire Island National Seashore was produced from remotely-sensed, geographically-referenced elevation measurements in cooperation with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), National Air and Space Administration (NASA), and the National Park Service (NPS). Elevation measurements were collected over the area using the NASA Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar (EAARL), a pulsed laser ranging system mounted onboard an aircraft to measure ground elevation, vegetation canopy, and coastal topography. The system uses high frequency laser beams directed at the earth's surface through an opening in the bottom of the aircraft's fuselage. The laser system records the time difference between emission of the laser beam and the reception of the reflected laser signal in the aircraft. The plane travels over the target area at approximately 50 meters per second at an elevation of approximately 300 m. The EAARL, developed by NASA at Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia, measures ground elevation with a vertical resolution of 15 centimeters. A sampling rate of 3 kHz or higher results in an extremely dense spatial elevation data set. Over 100 kilometers of coastline can be easily surveyed within a 3- to 4-hour mission time period. When subsequent elevation maps for an area are analyzed, they provide a useful tool to make management decisions regarding land development.

COW_Q26.TIF - U.S. Pacific West Coast EEZ GLORIA sidescan-sonar data mosaic (26 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.

Groundwater depletion in the United States (1900-2008)

A natural consequence of groundwater withdrawals is the removal of water from subsurface storage, but 
the overall rates and magnitude of groundwater depletion in the United States are not well characterized. This 
study evaluates long-term cumulative depletion volumes in 40 separate aquifers or areas and one land use 
category in the United States, bringing together information from the literature and from new analyses. 
Depletion is directly calculated using calibrated groundwater models, analytical approaches, or volumetric 
budget analyses for multiple aquifer systems. Estimated groundwater depletion in the United States during 
1900–2008 totals approximately 1,000 cubic kilometers (km3). Furthermore, the rate of groundwater depletion 
has increased markedly since about 1950, with maximum rates occurring during the most recent period 
(2000–2008) when the depletion rate averaged almost 25 km3 per year (compared to 9.2 km3 per year 
averaged over the 1900–2008 timeframe).

Interpretation of the Sedimentary Environments of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Survey H11322, Western Rhode Island Sound (H11322ENVIRONS, Geographic)

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is working cooperatively with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to interpret the surficial geology in estuaries along the coast of the northeastern United States. The purpose of our present study is to define the sea floor morphology and sedimentary environments in an area of Rhode Island Sound using sidescan-sonar and bathymetric data collected onboard the NOAA Ship RUDE, as well as historic seismic records. The mosaic, bathymetry, and their interpretations serve many purposes, including: (1) defining the geological variability of the sea floor, which is one of the primary controls of benthic habitat diversity; (2) improving our understanding of the processes that control the distribution and transport of bottom sediments and the distribution of benthic habitats and associated infaunal community structures; and (3) providing a detailed framework for future research, monitoring, and management activities. The sidescan-sonar mosaics and bathymetry images also serve as base maps for subsequent sedimentological, geochemical, and biological observations, because precise information on environmental setting is important for selection of sampling sites and for accurate interpretations of point measurements.
