Shorelines used to calculate shoreline change statistics from within the Nantucket coastal region including the Nantucket Sound and Atlantic Ocean-facing coasts of Nantucket, Muskeget and Tuckernuck Islands (Nantucket_shorelines.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) 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 (MA CZM) 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).

MODFLOW-NWT model used to assess groundwater availability in the Northern Atlantic Coastal Plain aquifer system from Long Island, New York to North Carolina

A three-dimensional, groundwater flow model was developed with the numerical code MODFLOW-NWT to 
represent changes in groundwater pumping and aquifer recharge in the Northern Atlantic Coastal Plain 
aquifer system from Long Island, New York to North Carolina. The model was constructed using existing 
hydrogeologic and geospatial information to represent the aquifer system geometry, boundaries, and 
hydraulic properties of the 19 separate regional aquifers and confining units within the aquifer system.  
The model was calibrated using an inverse modeling parameter-estimation (PEST) technique to conditions 
from 1986 to 2008, the period for which data are most complete and reliable.  The simulation period for this 
analysis spanned from predevelopment to future conditions, from 1900 to 2058. The model was used to 
advance the understanding of groundwater budgets and components including recharge, discharge, and 
aquifer storage for the entire system and for each of the statewide systems; compute historical and recent 
system response and project future system response to development at a scale relevant to basinwide 
water-management decisions; and evaluate options for hydrologic monitoring of system changes. The 
report ‘Documentation of a groundwater flow model developed to assess groundwater availability in the 
Northern Atlantic Coastal Plain aquifer system from Long Island, New York, to North Carolina: U.S. 
Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2016–5076' (https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20165076) 
documents the model design and calibration, as well as several simulations to test model construction 
assumptions.  The report 'Assessment of groundwater availability in the Northern Atlantic Coastal Plain 
aquifer system from Long Island, New York, to North Carolina: U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 
1829' (https://doi.org/10.3133/pp1829) documents water-availability simulations and the resulting analysis

LANDFIRE Remap Fuel Characteristic Classification System (FCCS) Micronesia

The LANDFIRE 2016 Remap (LF Remap) Fuel Characteristic Classification System (FCCS) calculates fuelbed characteristics and their potential fire behavior and effects. LF defines fuelbed as: the inherent physical characteristics of fuel that contribute to fire behavior and effects (Riccardi et al. 2007). FCCS represents the composition of fuels, and features six horizontal fuel layers called stratums (canopy, shrubs, herbs, downed wood, litter and duff). FCCS can be used for predicting surface fire behavior, crown fire potential, and fuel availability. FCCS fuelbeds are included preloaded in the US Forest Service (USFS) Fuel and Fire Tools (FFT) application. 
LF collaborated with the Fire and Environmental Research Applications (FERA) team of the USFS Pacific Northwest Research Station for creation of the FCCS product. Rule-based methods for crosswalks and mapping FCCS fuelbeds are constructed from the LF Remap Existing Vegetation Type (EVT) product. The EVT-to-fuelbed crosswalk rules often allow for several possibilities for fuelbeds; expert opinion is used to assign the most representative fuelbed and to determine where additional fuelbed development is necessary. FCCS fuelbed mapping should be considered a starting point and customized to represent sampled fuels within a project area. FCCS is a capable fuels product, capable fuels calculate 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. See the FCCS product page on the LF website for additional details https://www.landfire.gov/fccs.php.

Polygon Boundary Describing the Source Surveys Used to Build the Bathymetric Terrain Model of the Puerto Rico Trench and Northeastern Caribbean Region Compiled by the U.S. Geological Survey (PRBATHSOURCE, Esri Shapefile, Geographic projection WGS 84).

Bathymetric terrain models (BTMs) of seafloor morphology are an important component of marine geological investigations. Advances in acquisition and processing technologies of bathymetry data have facilitated the creation of high-resolution bathymetric surfaces that approach the resolution of those available for onshore investigations. These bathymetric terrain models provide a detailed representation of the Earth's subaqueous surface and when combined with other geophysical and geologic datasets, allow for interpretation of modern and ancient geologic processes.
