Projections of coastal flood hazards and flood potential for the U.S. Atlantic coast

Projected impacts by compound coastal flood hazards for future sea-level rise (SLR) and storm scenarios are shown for the U.S. Atlantic coast for three states (Florida, Georgia, and southern Virginia). Accompanying uncertainty for each SLR and storm scenario, indicating total uncertainty from model processes and contributing datasets, are illustrated in maximum and minimum flood potential. As described by Nederhoff and others (2024), projections were made using a system of numerical models driven by output from Global Climate Models (GCMs) from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) and a tropical cyclone database from US Army Corp of Engineers. The resulting data products include detailed flood-hazard maps along the U.S. Atlantic coast due to sea-level rise and plausible future storm conditions that consider the changing climate, hurricanes, and natural variability. In addition to sea-level rise, flood simulations run by these numerical models included dynamic contributions from tide, storm surge, wind, waves, river discharge, precipitation, and seasonal sea-level fluctuations. Outputs include impacts from combinations of SLR scenarios (0, 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 3.0 m) storm conditions including 1-year, 20-year and 100-year return interval storms and a background condition (no storm - astronomic tide and average atmospheric conditions). See Nederhoff and others (2024) for a full explanation of data and methods. Similar projections for North Carolina and South Carolina are available from Barnard and others, 2023, at https://doi.org/10.5066/P9W91314.

Context Camera Digital Terrain Model Mosaic for Mars 2020 Terrain Relative Navigation

The Mars 2020 rover will explore Jezero crater, Mars to investigate an ancient delta for evidence of past microbial life and to better understand the geologic history of the region. The landing system onboard Mars 2020 will use technology developed at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) called Terrain Relative Navigation (TRN), which will enable the spacecraft to autonomously avoid hazards (e.g., rock fields, crater rims) that exceed the safety requirements of the landing system. This capability allows small-scale hazards to be present in the landing ellipse, providing greater flexibility in selecting a landing location. In support of TRN, the USGS Astrogeology Science Center has generated and delivered the Lander Vision System (LVS) map generated from three Context Camera (CTX) orthorectified images that will be onboard the spacecraft and will be considered the truth dataset that TRN will use to orient itself relative to the surface during Entry, Decent, and Landing.

HW1_Q06.TIF - Hawaii I - Southeastern Hawaiian Ridge U.S. EEZ GLORIA sidescan-sonar data mosaic (6 of 29) (LCC, 50 m, WGS84)

Survey of the southeastern Hawaiian Ridge was the fifth major segment of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) mapping program to have been initiated. Data acquisition for this region required approximately one-half year and were acquired during eight cruises over a four year period from 1986 through 1989, skipping 1987. At the conclusion of the survey 29 mosaics of a 2 degree by 2 degree were completed for the region. 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 twenty-seven digital mosaics of a 2 degree by 2 degree area and 2 mosaics of 2.25 degree by 2 degree with a 50-meter pixel resolution were completed for the region.

Location of Sea-Floor Photographs Acquired During U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Cruise 08012 (RAFA08012) in the Vicinity of Edgartown Harbor, Offshore Massachusetts (RAFA08012_BOTPHOTOS.SHP, Geographic)

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management (MA CZM), is producing detailed geologic maps of the coastal sea floor. Imagery, originally collected by NOAA for charting purposes, provides a fundamental framework for research and management activities along this part of the Massachusetts coastline, shows the composition and terrain of the seabed, and provides information on sediment transport and benthic habitat. Interpretive data layers were derived from the combined single-beam and multibeam echo-sounder data and sidescan-sonar data collected in the vicinity of Edgartown Harbor, Massachusetts.  During August 2008 seismic-reflection profiles (Boomer and Chirp) were acquired, and during September 2008 bottom photographs and surficial sediment data were acquired as part of two ground-truth reconnaissance surveys.

Digital geospatial datasets in support of hydrologic investigations of the Colorado Front Range Infrastructure Resources Project

The U.S. Geological Survey developed this dataset as part of the Colorado Front Range Infrastructure 
Resources Project (FRIRP).  One goal of the FRIRP was to provide information on the availability of 
those hydrogeologic resources that are either critical to maintaining infrastructure along the northern 
Front Range or that may become less available because of urban expansion in the northern Front Range.  
This dataset extends from the Boulder-Jefferson County line on the south, to the middle of Larimer and 
Weld Counties on the North. On the west, this dataset is bounded by the approximate mountain front 
of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains;  on the east, by an arbitrary north-south line extending 
through a point about 6.5 kilometers east of Greeley.  This digital geospatial dataset consists of bedrock-
surface-elevation contours that were generated with a Geographic Information System (GIS).

Archive of Post-Hurricane Charley Coastal Oblique Aerial Photographs Collected during USGS Field Activity 04CCH01 from Marco Island to Fort DeSoto, Florida, August 15, 2004


On August 15, 2004, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted an aerial survey off the southwest coast of Florida, starting in the south at Marco Island to Fort DeSoto in the north. These data along with Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar (EAARL) coastal topographic and bathymetric data collected on August 16, 2004 (Bonisteel and others, 2009), will be used to detect coastal changes such as beach erosion and overwash caused by Hurricane Charley. These data will also be used to track future coastal change. This report serves as an archive of the Post-Hurricane Charley coastal oblique aerial survey photographs, flight path maps, Google Earth files, navigation files, digital Field Activity Collection System (FACS) logs, and Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) metadata. Attribute data including links to digital scans of the photographs are also provided.
Latitude, longitude and/or time were gathered simultaneously from video (with latitude/longitude and time stamps), photographs (with time stamps) and a Precision Lightweight GPS Receiver (PLGR) navigation file (without time) that documented the location of the aircraft. Location data were converted to decimal degrees and merged to create a location and time file that provided estimated location information for where each photograph was taken (see process step below). Slides were digitally scanned as TIFF image files at 3,000 dots per inch and were converted to JPEG image files which are provided here. The header values filename, date/time, location, latitude, longitude, city, state, country, keywords, description (caption), source, contact info, credits, make, model, artist, copyright, image, history, user comments, and comments were added to the digital photograph's EXIF header.

LANDFIRE Remap 2016 Public Exotics Events AK

The LANDFIRE (LF) Remap Public Exotics feature class is a compilation of exotic or invasive plant species perimeters that were reported between 1999 and 2016. The Public Exotics feature class includes a subset of the full suite of data that were used in the production of LANDFIRE 2008 Refresh (LF 1.1.0), LANDFIRE 2010 (LF 1.2.0), LANDFIRE 2012 (LF 1.3.0), LANDFIRE 2014 (LF 1.4.0), and LANDFIRE Remap (LF 2.0.0) program deliverables. According to agreements between LANDFIRE and its data contributors, certain proprietary or otherwise sensitive data were removed to create this publicly available version. For more information about the data sources included and excluded from this release, please consult the Source_Code look up table found at: http://www.landfire.gov/publicevents.php. The data were collected from disparate sources including federal, state, local, and private organizations, and systematically converted to the standard LANDFIRE Exotics format. Any geospatial or information content errors that were identified were eliminated and species names or codes were converted to Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) scientific names ca. December 2013. Up to ten species and their associated percent cover (absolute) or infestation level (P = present, L = low, M = moderate, H = high) were reported for each unique polygon. If there was no percent cover or infestation level listed for particular exotics species it was assigned a P for present.

Enhanced TIFF Sidescan-Sonar Mosaic of Virgin Basin - Lake Mead, Nevada:  Geographic Coordinates

Lake Mead is a large interstate reservoir located in the Mojave Desert of southeastern Nevada and northwestern Arizona.  It was impounded in 1935 by the construction of Hoover Dam and is one of a series of multi-purpose reservoirs on the Colorado River.  The lake extends 183 km from the mouth of the Grand Canyon to Black Canyon, the site of Hoover Dam, and provides water for residential, commercial, industrial, recreational, and other non-agricultural users in communities across the southwestern United States.  Extensive research has been conducted on Lake Mead, but a majority of the studies have involved determining levels of anthropogenic contaminants such as synthetic organic compounds, heavy metals and dissolved ions, furans/dioxins, and nutrient loading in lake water, sediment, and biota (Preissler, et al., 1998; Bevans et al, 1996; Bevans et al., 1998; Covay and Leiker, 1998; LaBounty and Horn, 1997; Paulson, 1981).  By contrast, little work has focused on the sediments in the lake and the processes of deposition (Gould, 1951).  To address these questions, sidescan-sonar imagery and high-resolution seismic-reflection profiles were collected throughout Lake Mead by the USGS in cooperation with researchers from University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV).  These data allow a detailed mapping of the surficial geology and the distribution and thickness of sediment that has accumulated in the lake since the completion of Hoover Dam.  Results indicate that the accumulation of post-impoundment sediment is primarily restricted to former river and stream beds that are now submerged below the lake while the margins of the lake appear to be devoid of post-impoundment sediment.  The sediment cover along the original Colorado River bed is continuous and is typically greater than 10 m thick through much of its length.  Sediment thickness in some areas exceeds 35 m while the smaller tributary valleys typically are filled with less than 4 m of sediment.  Away from the river beds that are now covered with post-impoundment sediment, pre-impoundment alluvial deposits and rock outcrops are still exposed on the lake floor.
