Attributed North American Bat Monitoring Program (NABat) Master Sample and Grid-Based Sampling Frame

The NABat sampling frame is a grid-based finite-area frame spanning Canada, the United States, and Mexico consisting of 10-km by 10-km (100-km2) grid cell sample units for the continental United States, Canada, and Alaska and 5- by 5-km (25km2) for Hawaii and Puerto Rico.  This grain size is biologically appropriate given the scale of movement of most bat species, which routinely travel many kilometers each night between roosts and foraging areas and along foraging routes.  A Generalized Random-Tessellation Stratified (GRTS) Survey Design draw was added to the sample units from the raw sampling grids (https://doi.org/10.5066/P9M00P17).  This dataset represents the final 2018 NABat Sampling grid with various landscape level attributes added (country, state/territory, county, percent water, and land ownership/management).  Grid cells that fall outside the area of interest were removed from each individual sampling frame.

Water chemistry data for samples collected at groundwater and surface-water sites near the Lost Hills and Belridge oil fields, November 2016-September 2017, Kern County, California (ver. 2.0, April 2019)

An investigation was done by the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the California State Water Resources Control Board's Program of Regional Groundwater Monitoring of Water Quality in Areas of Oil and Gas Production, to assess the effects of oil and gas production activities on nearby groundwater resources. During November 2016–September 2017, 30 samples were collected at groundwater wells and 1 sample was collected at a surface-water site. This dataset contains site information and water chemistry results for samples collected near the Lost Hills and North and South Belridge oil fields, Kern County, California. Samples were analyzed for water-quality indicators, major and minor ions, nutrients, trace elements, volatile organic compounds, naturally occurring radioactive material, geochemical and age-dating tracers, dissolved organic carbon, low molecular weight organic acids, dissolved standard and hydrocarbon gases, and dissolved noble and atmospheric gases. Quality-control samples including replicates; source-solution, equipment, and field blanks; laboratory spikes; and split samples for interlab comparisons were collected and summarized in this data release.

Evapotranspiration at Starkey pasture site, monthly data, Pasco County, Florida, May 2003 - April 2016

The data set consists of monthly sums of 30-minute evapotranspiration measurements made at the USGS Starkey pasture climate station beginning May 1, 2003 and ending April 30, 2016. Annual evapotranspiration rates corrected to a near-surface energy-budget for the 12 calendar years of record at this site (2004-2015) varied from 718 millimeters (2007) to 903 millimeters (2010). The eddy-covariance method was used, with high-frequency sensors installed above the pasture to measure sensible and latent heat fluxes. Ancillary meteorological data are also included in the data set: rainfall and ground-water levels. Data were collected at 30-minute resolution, with evapotranspiration corrected to the near-surface energy-budget at that timescale. Related data sets are presented at 30-minute and daily time intervals. The study was conducted at a nearly flat, non-irrigated site (Latitude 28 13 31 North Longitude 82 33 33 West in degrees minutes seconds, NAD 1927, Section 13, Township 26S, Range 17E) within the Anclote River Ranch property owned by the Southwest Florida Water Management District in Pasco County, Florida. The site was also within J.B. Starkey Wilderness Park. Instrumentation was installed in April 2003. The dominant (about 80 percent of surface coverage) plant cover at the study site is bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum) that varies from a lush green during the summer to a drab brown during the winter. The bahiagrass is ungrazed and grass height can reach 0.5 meter. During the study, the pasture was mowed periodically to 0.2 meters. Vegetation tables provided with the data release list when mowing occurred. Maximum grass rooting depth at the site is about 0.5 meters. Other plants at the study site, intermixed with the bahiagrass and occurring as distinct patches, include bushy broom grass (Andropogon glomeratus), rush (Juncus spp.), dog fennel (Eupatorium capillifolium), flat-topped goldenrod (Euthamia minor), and groundsel tree (Baccharis halimifolia). Forested wetlands are present on the margins of Sandy Branch, a tributary to the Anclote River southwest of the site, and a small cypress dome (40 meter diameter) is located east of the site. The effects of these forested areas are assumed to be negligible, as the pasture area extends 175 meters away from the site in all directions and satisfies upwind fetch requirements for the height of the eddy covariance sensors (more than 100 times the final height of 1.5 meters). The soils at the site are Pomona fine sands with less than 5 percent organic content. For the 13 years of record at this site, the water table was always within 2 meters of land surface.

Probable suitable habitat for Little San Bernardino Mountains linanthus (Linanthus maculatus) in the California desert

Here we present the map of probable suitable habitat for Little San Bernardino Mountains linanthus (Linanthus maculatus). The data indicate both how many models predicted each location to be 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. This product can be used to inform future conservation, planning, and management actions in the California desert. Complete methods and other additional information are provided in the article associated with this data release (Reese and others, 2019).

Wells as an Irrigation Source on Agricultural Land in the Conterminous United States, 1992: National Resource Inventory Conservation Practice IS01

This data set represents the estimated percentage of the 1-km grid cell that is covered by or subject to the 
agricultural conservation practice (CPIS01), Wells as an Irrigation Source (WIS) on agricultural land by county.  
Wells as an Irrigation Source are described as a "hole drilled or bored into the earth providing access to water." 
(U.S. Department of Agriculture, 1995)  This data set was created with geographic information systems (GIS) 
and database management tools. The acres on which WIS's are applied were totaled at the county level in the 
tabular NRI database and then apportioned to a raster coverage of agricultural land within the county based on 
the Enhanced National Land Cover Dataset (NLCDe) 1-kilometer resolution land cover grids (Nakagaki, 2003). 
Federal land is not considered in this analysis because NRI does not record information on those lands.
