Precipitation, air temperature, streamflow, and water table levels from selected wells at the Panola Mountain Research Watershed, 2001 - 2003

This dataset contains hourly average groundwater level time-series for 19 monitoring wells at the Panola Mountain Research Watershed (PMRW) from January 2001 to October 2002. The data was used in a hydrologic modeling study to test a model formulation that allowed for bi-direction fluxes between groundwater and surface water in a bucket type hydrologic model. Some wells had missing data so record lengths were not equal. The water level data were quality controlled; unexplained peaks and shifts were removed, and these periods were indicated as having no data. The modeling study used average water level data from the riparian area and from the entire catchment for calibration. Riparian groundwater levels were calculated from the 13 riparian wells, while catchment average groundwater levels were calculated from the averages of levels from the riparian (n=13) and hillslope (n=6) wells, weighted based on the proportion of their landscape unit areas in the catchment (0.83 for hillslopes and 0.17 for riparian areas). Modeling required continuous record of water levels, so levels from each well were scaled based on their minimum and maximum levels measured during the period. Hourly riparian and catchment averages were then calculated from these scaled values, thereby, utilizing all available water level observations. Well levels were reported from the bottom of the well to facilitate this scaling, but levels can be converted to depth to water table below land surface using the provided well construction specifications. In addition to the groundwater level time series, the dataset also contains hourly time series of average streamflow at two locations at PMRW (outlet of the 10 ha Upper catchment and the 41 ha Lower catchment), total precipitation and average temperature for the January 2001 to October 2003 period. The longer period for these data were used for model verification.

Raw Continuous Resistivity Profiles Collected in the Neuse River, April 23, 2004

The Neuse River Estuary in North Carolina is a broad, V-shaped water body located on the southwestern end of Pamlico Sound. This estuary suffers from severe eutrophication for which several water quality models have recently been developed to aid in the management of nutrient loading to the estuary. In an effort to help constrain model estimates of the fraction of nutrients delivered by direct ground-water discharge, continuous resistivity profile (CRP) measurements were made during the spring of 2004 and 2005. CRP is used to measure electrical resistivity of sediments, a property that is sensitive to difference in salinity of submarine ground water. The 2004 and 2005 surveys used floating resistivity streamers of 100 m and 50 m respectively. The depth penetration of the streamers is approximately 20% of the streamer length which translates to approximately 20-25 m with the 100 m streamer and 12-14 m with the 50 m streamer. These data were processed using AGI's EarthImager 2D software. CRP data enables the mapping of the extent and depth of the fresher ground water within the estuary.

Coastwide Reference Monitoring System (CRMS) 2018 Site 0560 land-water classification data

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 398 sites that encompass the range of hydrological and ecological conditions for each stratum. As part of CRMS, land and water classifications are created from Digital Orthophoto Quarter Quadrangles (DOQQs) approximately every three years at all CRMS sites. A DOQQ is a raster image in which displacement in the image caused by sensor orientation and terrain relief has been removed and combines the image characteristics of a photo with geometric qualities of a map. The DOQQs generated for this project consist of 2018 Color Infrared (CIR) Digital Imagery. These images were classified into land and water categories using a threshold of the near infrared (NIR) band, followed by supervised and unsupervised classification.  Initial classification results are then reviewed by multiple image analysts to identify and manually recode errors. The final land-water classifications are intended to serve as both geographic and quantitative assessments of landscape composition on the date of acquisition. Four previous assessments have been conducted (2005, 2008, 2012, and 2015/2016). Once the program creates enough data points for statistical analyses, these data will be used for land area change rate calculation.

National Land Cover Database 2001 (NLCD01) Tree Canopy Layer Tile 4, Southeast United States: CNPY01_4

This 30-meter resolution data set represents the tree canopy layer for the conterminous 
United States for the 2001 time period. The data have been arranged into four tiles to 
facilitate timely display and manipulation within a Geographic Information System, 
browse graphic: nlcd01-partition.jpg
		
The National Land Cover Data Set for 2001 was produced through a cooperative project 
conducted by the Multi-Resolution Land Characteristics (MRLC) Consortium. The MRLC 
Consortium is a partnership of Federal agencies (www.mrlc.gov), consisting of the U.S. 
Geological Survey (USGS), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), the U.S. Department of Agriculture 
(USDA), the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), the National Park Service (NPS), the U.S. Fish 
and Wildlife Service (USFWS), the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), and the USDA 
Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). One of the primary goals of the project 
is to generate a current, consistent, seamless, and accurate National Land Cover Database 
(NLCD) circa 2001 for the United States at medium spatial resolution. For a detailed definition 
and discussion on MRLC and the NLCD 2001 products, refer to Homer and others (2004) and 
http://www.mrlc.gov/mrlc2k.asp.
		
The NLCD 2001 was created by partitioning the United States into mapping-zones. A total of 
68 mapping-zones browse graphic: nlcd01-mappingzones.jpg were delineated within the 
conterminous United States based on ecoregion and geographical characteristics, edge-matching 
features, and the size requirement of Landsat mosaics. Mapping-zones encompass the whole or 
parts of several states. Questions about the NLCD mapping zones can be directed to the NLCD 
2001 Land Cover Mapping Team at the USGS/EROS, Sioux Falls, SD (605) 594-6151 or

LANDFIRE Preliminary Annual Disturbance Puerto Rico US Virgin Islands 2023

The LANDFIRE Preliminary Annual Disturbance (PDist)23 product is a new product introduced with the LF 2023 Update (LF 2023). While LDist23 is a first "draft", PDist23 is akin to a second “draft” of the LANDFIRE Annual Disturbance product and includes disturbance events captured through October 31, 2023. PDist23 is releasing for these extents throughout the calendar year 2024: Conterminous United States (CONUS), Alaska (AK), Hawaii (HI), and Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands (PRVI). See the LF 2023 page for more information as this page will be added to as more details are available. https://landfire.gov/data/lf2023
Preliminary Annual Disturbance (PDist23) was created with Landsat imagery, submitted disturbance events from the data call, and online fire program data collected on or before October 31, 2023. Unlike the Limited Annual Disturbance (LDist23) product released earlier in calendar year 2024, PDist23 includes remotely sensed severity for submitted events and unknown disturbances where change was detected.

Digital Shoreline Analysis System version 4.3 shoreline intersection points used to calculate short-term (Linear Regression Rate) shoreline change statistics within the Martha's Vineyard coastal region including the Vineyard Sound-, Nantucket Sound- and Atlantic Ocean- facing coasts of Martha's Vineyard and Nomans Land (MarthasVineyard_intersects_STlr.shp)

Due to continued coastal population growth and increased threats of erosion, current data on trends and rates of shoreline movement are required to inform shoreline and floodplain management. The Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management launched the Shoreline Change Project in 1989 to identify erosion-prone areas of the coast. In 2001, a 1994 shoreline was added to calculate both long- and short-term shoreline change rates at 40-meter intervals along ocean-facing sections of the Massachusetts coast.
The Coastal and Marine Geology Program of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in cooperation with the Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management, has compiled reliable historical shoreline data along open-facing sections of the Massachusetts coast under the Massachusetts Shoreline Change Mapping and Analysis Project 2013 Update. Two oceanfront shorelines for Massachusetts (approximately 1,800 km in total length) were (1) delineated using 2008/09 color aerial orthoimagery, and (2) extracted from topographic LIDAR datasets (2007) obtained from NOAA's Ocean Service, Coastal Services Center. The new shorelines were integrated with existing Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management and USGS historical shoreline data in order to compute long- and short-term rates using the latest version of the Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS).

Geospatial data to assess karst aquifer systems between Albany and Buffalo, New York (ver. 4.0, January 2024)

Using publicly available data for Schoharie and Montgomery counties, New York, a series of geospatial overlays were created at 1:24,000 scale to examine the bedrock geology, groundwater table, soils, and surficial geology. Bedrock and surficial geology were refined using extant bedrock maps, well and borehole data from water- and gas-wells, soil data, and lidar data. Groundwater data were collected from New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and U.S. Geological Survey water-well databases to estimate the groundwater table. Soil data were used to examine soil thickness over bedrock and infiltration. 
An inventory of closed depressions was created using reconditioned lidar-derived bare-earth digital elevation models (DEMs) and a modeled stream network. Closed depressions were identified from the processed DEMs using threshold criteria of 10 and 30 centimeters (3.9 and 11.8 inches) for depth and 100 square meters (1076 square feet) for area. A combination of hydrologic, mining, and cultural features was used to eliminate false positives and filter out features that overlie existing waterbodies, streams, and mines and to remove artificial dams along roadways and railways. 
This data release includes shapefiles containing the well data information including location, well depth, depth to bedrock, and groundwater depth; bedrock geology; surficial geology; interpolated bedrock surface contours; interpolated groundwater surface contours; soil saturated hydraulic conductivity; soil classes; and modeled closed depressions of 10 cm and 30 cm depth thresholds. This release also contains rasters of the interpolated bedrock surface, interpolated groundwater surface and land use.

Potential suitable habitat for Flat-seeded spurge (Chamaesyce platysperma) in the California desert

Here we present the map of potential suitable habitat for Flat-seeded spurge (Chamaesyce platysperma). The data indicate both how many models predicted each location to be potentially suitable for the species and the average standardized habitat suitability score for each location.Data are presented at a spatial resolution of 10 m pixels, which was required to harmonize the original model inputs. However, maps of suitable habitat should be used at a resolution no smaller than 360 m (i.e., 36 pixels x 36 pixels), which corresponds with the resolution of the coarsest model input. These data are intended to be used only to target future plant surveys in areas where new occurrences are most likely to benefit future habitat modelling efforts. Complete methods and other additional information are provided in the article associated with this data release (Reese and others, 2019).
