LANDFIRE Remap Fuel Vegetation Height (FVH) Micronesia

The LANDFIRE (LF) 2016 Remap (Remap) Fuel Vegetation Height (FVH) represents a modified pre-disturbance version of the Existing Vegetation Height (EVH) product from previous LF versions. LF Remap EVH is mapped as continuous estimates of canopy height for tree, shrub, and herbaceous lifeforms with a potential range from 0m to 50m or more. To translate continuous EVH values into fuel model assignments, EVH values are binned to new groups to improve canopy fuel predictions. FVH leverages fuel transition assignments related to disturbed areas by re-establishing  pre-disturbance vegetation and was developed using the full suite of LF vegetation releases and the most recent 10 years of disturbance data. FVH is a capable fuels product that calculates Time Since Disturbance (TSD) assignments for disturbed areas using an "effective year." For example, year 2020 fuels may be calculated for the year 2020. the new process considers all the existing disturbances included in LF Remap and adjusts the TSD for these to the effective year (2020 in the example), making the products "2020 capable fuels." More information about capable fuels can be found at https://www.landfire.gov/lf_remap.php.

Weekly Wind Speed and Frequency for a Wave Exposure Model of Grand Bay, Mississippi

Coastal marshes are highly dynamic and ecologically important ecosystems that are subject to pervasive and often harmful disturbances, including shoreline erosion. Shoreline erosion can result in an overall loss of coastal marsh, particularly in estuaries with moderate- or high-wave energy. Not only can waves be important physical drivers of shoreline change, they can also influence shore-proximal vertical accretion through sediment delivery. For these reason, estimates of wave energy can provide a quantitative measure of wave effects on marsh shorelines. Since wave energy is difficult to measure at all locations, scientists and managers often rely on hydrodynamic models to estimate wave properties at different locations. The Wave Exposure Model (WEMo) is a simple tool that uses linear wave theory to estimate wave energy characteristics for enclosed and semi-enclosed estuaries(Malhotra and Fonseca, 2007). The interpretation of hydrodynamic models is improved if model results can be validated against measured data. The data presented in this publication are input and validation data for modeled and observed mean wave height for two temporary oceanographic stations established by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in the Grand Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, Mississippi.

Digital Shoreline Analysis System version 4.1 Transects with Long-Term Rate Calculations for the Massachusetts Islands Region including Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket (MA_Islands_LT.shp)

Sandy ocean beaches are a popular recreational destination, often surrounded by communities containing valuable real estate.  Development is on the rise despite the fact that coastal infrastructure is subjected to flooding and erosion.  As a result, there is an increased demand for accurate information regarding past and present shoreline changes.  To meet these national needs, the Coastal and Marine Geology Program of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is compiling existing reliable historical shoreline data along open-ocean sandy shores of the conterminous United States and parts of Alaska and Hawaii under the National Assessment of Shoreline Change project.
There is no widely accepted standard for analyzing shoreline change.  Existing shoreline data measurements and rate calculation methods vary from study to study and prevent combining results into state-wide or regional assessments.  The impetus behind the National Assessment project was to develop a standardized method of measuring changes in shoreline position that is consistent from coast to coast.  The goal was to facilitate the process of periodically and systematically updating the results in an internally consistent manner.

Temperature and Seepage Data from the Nearshore Bottom Sediments of Five Groundwater Flow-Through Glacial Kettle Lakes, Western Cape Cod, Massachusetts, 2015-18

Hydrologic data were collected in the nearshore lake-bottom sediments of five lakes on western Cape Cod, Massachusetts: Ashumet (Falmouth), Long (Centerville), Santuit (Mashpee), Shubael (Barnstable), and Snake (Sandwich) Ponds. Water budgets of flow-through glacial kettle lakes are commonly dominated by groundwater flow into and surface-water seepage out of the lake, and inputs and losses from precipitation and evaporation are typically smaller. This data release presents water flux data collected from sites at the five lakes where lake water is seeping downward across the groundwater/surface-water interface into the groundwater system. Detailed characterization of water flux across the lake-bottom interface is critical to assessing the lake's influence on the groundwater system. The water fluxes were calculated for four of the lakes by using measurements of bottom-sediment temperature in shallow (less than 20 centimeters) vertical profiles and were measured directly at all five lakes by using seepage meters.&#13;
&#13;
Data were collected over four periods. Seepage meter measurements were made during August and September 2015. Temperature profile data were collected from July 27 to October 13, 2016; September 19 to October 11, 2017; and February 13 to February 23, 2018.&#13;
&#13;
The data are divided into four data sets (child items): (01) Temperature measurements from the vertical profiles, (02) calculated seepage rates from the temperature profiles, (03) measured seepage rates from the seepage meters and associated site information, and (04) average calculated seepage rates for each vertical temperature profile site and associated site information.

AA_Q30.TIF - Aleutian Arc U.S. EEZ GLORIA sidescan-sonar data mosaic (30 of 31) (LCC, 50 m, WGS84)

During late July through September 1987 and June and July 1988 the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted four cruises to cover the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) region of the Aleutian Arc. 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. A total of 31 digital mosaics of a 3 degree by 3 degree (or smaller) area with a 50-meter pixel resolution were completed for the region.

Boomer Seismic navigation trackline data collected by the U.S. Geological Survey offshore of the Grand Strand, South Carolina (BOOMER_TRK, Polyline)

In 1999, the USGS, in partnership with the South Carolina Sea Grant Consortium, began a study to investigate processes affecting shoreline change along the northern coast of South Carolina, focusing on the Grand Strand region. Previous work along the U.S. Atlantic coast shows that the structure and composition of older geologic strata located seaward of the coast heavily influences the coastal behavior of areas with limited sediment supply, such as the Grand Strand. By defining this geologic framework and identifying the transport pathways and sinks of sediment, geoscientists are developing conceptual models of the present-day physical processes shaping the South Carolina coast. The primary objectives of this research effort are: 1) to provide a regional synthesis of the shallow geologic framework underlying the coastal upland, shoreface and inner continental shelf, and define its role in coastal evolution and modern beach behavior; 2) to identify and model the physical processes affecting coastal ocean circulation and sediment transport, and to define their role in shaping the modern shoreline; and 3) to identify sediment sources and transport pathways; leading to construction of a regional sediment budget.

Sedimentologic Data from Point aux Chenes Marsh and Estuary, Mississippi (21CCT02)

Sediment samples, including marsh and estuarine surface samples and marsh push and peat-auger cores, were collected from Point aux Chenes, Mississippi from October 23-26, 2018, and August 4, 2021. Marsh surface samples (top 1 centimeter (cm) of sediment; sample names appended with S), marsh push cores (core names appended with M) and peat-auger cores (core names appended with R) were collected along 50-meter (m), shore perpendicular, transects identified as sites 5, 6, 7, and 9. All samples in the dataset are referred to by alternate field activity number (FAN) 18CCT09 (FAN 2018-358-FA) and alternate FAN 21CCT02 (FAN 2021-320-FA). Estuarine Ponar grab samples (sample names appended with G), marsh surface samples, and push cores were collected and brought back for sedimentological analyses including dry bulk density, organic content, grain-size (for the development of a sedimentological baseline), and gamma spectroscopy (for the development of geochronologies). Peat augers were collected, described for depth to peat, and discarded in the field. Marsh and estuarine surface and core sediment samples were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center's (SPCMSC) to study how and where short- and long-term marsh and estuarine coastal process interact in order to identify and evaluate geologic and geomorphic variables influences on marshes and their resiliency under different storm and sea-level scenarios, determine marsh-upland boundary change rates, and sediment accumulation and erosion rates.

Tabular data: Sediment Sample Locations Collected in July 2013 from the Northern Chandeleur Islands, Louisiana (U.S. Geological Survey Field Activity Number 13BIM05)

As part of the Barrier Island Evolution Research (BIER) project, scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (SPCMSC) collected sediment samples from the northern Chandeleur Islands in July 2013. The overall objective of this project, which integrates geophysical (bathymetric, seismic, and topographic) and sedimentologic data, is to better understand the depositional and erosional processes that drive the morphologic evolution of barrier islands over annual to interannual timescales (1 to 5 years). Between June 2010 and April 2011, in response to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, the State of Louisiana constructed a sand berm extending more than 14 kilometers (km) along the northern Chandeleur Islands platform. The construction of the berm provided a unique opportunity to investigate how this new sediment source will interact with and affect the morphologic evolution of the barrier-island system. Data collected from this study will be used to describe differences in the physical characteristics and spatial distribution of sediments both along the axis of the berm and also along transects across the berm and onto the adjacent barrier island. Comparison of these data with data from prior sampling efforts will provide information about sediment interactions and movement between the berm and the natural island platform, improving our understanding of short-term morphologic change and processes in this barrier-island system.
This data series serves as an archive of sediment data collected in July 2013 from the Chandeleur Islands sand berm and adjacent barrier-island environments. Data products, including descriptive core logs, core photographs and x-radiographs, results of sediment grain-size analyses, sample location maps, and Geographic Information System (GIS) data files with accompanying formal Federal Geographic Data Committee (FDGC) metadata, can be downloaded from https://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/894/ds894_data.html.
