Sidewinder Inventory at Saguaro National Park 2022 - Open Format Dataset

Saguaro National Park, Tucson Mountain District (TMD) includes a portion of the Tucson Mountains and adjacent lower bajada landscapes along the western boundary in Avra Valley. Plans to route Interstate 11 within 400 m of the western boundary have led to concerns over projected negative impacts on wildlife. Among the species of concern is the Sidewinder (Crotalus cerastes), primarily because the population residing in TMD represents the easternmost distribution of this iconic species. To better inform management, we used distance sampling along transects and washes and road cruising surveys to examine density and distribution of Sidewinders in TMD. From May-September, 2022, encompassing both the dry pre-monsoon season and the wet monsoon season, we conducted 519 distance sampling surveys totaling 814.61 km and 69 road cruising surveys totaling 1,997.47 km in upland and wash environments. Our efforts produced 421 total snake observations, which included nine Sidewinder observations. The small number of Sidewinders observations proved to be insufficient for model convergence. Although we were unable to obtain density estimates of Sidewinders, data from both distance sampling and road cruising surveys provided valuable information on distribution of the species. As expected, we observed Sidewinders in the westernmost portion of TMD in sandy environments dominated by yellow palo verde and creosote bush. We recommend that TMD staff conduct repeated road cruising surveys over time to make inferences about population trends that can be compared before and after construction of I-11.

August 2023 Windthrow Data

In August 2023, a large microburst storm event toppled a large number of saguaros in Saguaro National Park's Tucson Mountain District (TMD). Hundreds of saguaros were killed or damaged in the initial event.   Two surveys, one in 2023 and a follow-up in 2025 mapped and recorded data from greater than 2000 saguaros impacted by the windthrow of August 2023.This data set contains relevant data from the Saguaro National Park Blow Down Study.

Fish Inventory at Ocmulgee Mounds National Historical Park in 2004 - Data Package

Ocmulgee National Monument (OCMU) was surveyed in 2004 as park of a larger initiative to inventory fish at Southeast Coast Network parks. The purpose of the study was to sample fishes in 12 parks to supplement existing data or to provide preliminary records of fishes where no records existed. The freshwater aquatic habitats in OCMU include swamp, stream and riverine systems. Three sites were sampled and 31 species of fishes were documented.

Extraction Lookup Table - Supplemental Materials to Modelling Effects of Flow Withdrawal Scenarios on Riverine and Riparian Features of the Yampa River in Dinosaur National Monument

The Extraction Lookup Tables in this supplemental file reflect the results of the analyses of historical and alternative hydrographs, reflecting potential water extractions, described in the accompanying report. These tables are intended to be used by the National Park Service to evaluate how water development proposals will adversely affect NPS resources. Any amount of water will have some impact on the natural resource of the Yampa River. The purpose of these tables is to enable the NPS to identify ways to minimize the impact to the extent possible. Tables are for Assessment #1 (full 99-year historical hydrologic record) and Assessment #2 (most recent 20 years of the hydrologic record) and present the optimized alternative extraction scenarios (based on the prescribed Flow Extraction Parameters) that minimize the impact to the resource (i.e., the sum of the resource metrics) for a volume of water extracted.

Winter Cover Density

Winter cover density data measuring the amount/quality of cover for a snowshoe hare at a particular plot. The Point-Center-Quarter method was employed to measure cover in 4 quarters at the plot being measured. A rating system was devised to quantify cover, from 0 = no cover to 5 = complete cover on four sides and overhead.
