Drilling, construction, geophysical data, and lithologic log for borehole USGS 151

In 2020, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for Naval Reactors Laboratory Field Office or Naval Reactors Facility (NRF), drilled and constructed borehole USGS 151 (433846112540701) for stratigraphic framework analyses at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) near the NRF, located in southeastern Idaho. Borehole USGS 151 was continuously cored from approximately 48 to 1,070 feet below land surface (BLS) and rotary drilled from approximately 1,070 to 1,720 feet BLS. Core drilling was discontinued after 1,070 feet BLS and changed over to straight rotary drilling due to funding constraints and deadlines. The USGS collected select geophysical data, daily drilling notes, and prepared detailed core descriptions for core collected to 1,070 ft BLS, which are included as part of this data release. The USGS Research Drilling Program (RDP) performed the core drilling operations and well construction between June 4, 2020 to September 21, 2020; additionally, the USGS RDP collected geophysical data, single caliper log, that was collected on August 15, 2020. The USGS INL Project Office collected multiple geophysical logs on September 15, 2020. 
Select geophysical data include natural gamma, caliper, neutron, and gamma-gamma density logs which were examined synergistically with available core material to identify contacts between basalt flows and location and thickness of sediment layers. Additionally, a gyroscopic deviation survey was performed and analyzed to reflect the projected well bore path. Geophysical data were collected using Century™ multi-parameter logging probes and select logs are displayed in well log figures. Geophysical data shown in figure displays include the natural gamma and neutron probe (9055C), caliper probe (9065A), gamma-gamma density probe (0024C), and gyroscopic deviation probe (9095C). With the exception of the caliper log, all geophysical data were collected through drill pipe after reaching total depth. Geophysical log data not represented in figure displays can be obtained by downloading attached LAS files.
Drill core was taken to the USGS Lithologic Core Storage Library for storage and permanent archive located at Central Facilities Area on the INL. Drill core was photographed and described using standardized methods (Johnson and others, 2005). These standardized methods make use of commercially available software that include using a procedure developed by the USGS INL Project Office. The standardized method maximizes description and minimizes interpretation.

Low-altitude visible, multispectral, and thermal-infrared imagery from edge-of-field monitoring sites for Great Lakes Restoration Initiative - Wisconsin Surface Water 4 and 5

These orthophotos and digital surface model (DSM) were derived from low-altitude (approximately 92-m above ground surface) images collected from Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) flights over edge-of-field sites that are part of U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI) monitoring.  The objective of this UAS photogrammetry data collection was to provide information on the tile-drain network in individual fields with the goal of understanding already observed patterns in runoff amount and water quality from these sites.  A 3DR Solo quadcopter served as the flight vehicle, flights were pre-planned using Mission Planner, and flights were flown using Tower.  Geospatial data were originally in WGS84 and projected to a local coordinate system for each site.  Visible color (Vis-C) imagery was collected with a Ricoh GRII as a single band.  Multispectral (MS) imagery was collected with a MicaSense RedEdge 3 as five co-located bands:  blue (B; approximately 475-500 nanometers [nm]), green (G; 550-560 nm), red (R; 660-670 nm), red-edge (710-720 nm), and near infrared (NIR; 820-860 nm).  Thermal-infrared (TIR) data were collected using a FLIR Vue Pro R 640 camera with an uncooled vanadium oxide microbolometer and a 13-mm lens.  Images were collected at 2-second intervals, with a flight speed of 9 meters per second (m/s), 7 m/s, or 5 m/s (visible, multispectral, thermal, respectively) with approximately 75% overlap between sequential images and 70% sidelap between adjacent flight lines.  Cameras used local time for visible and thermal imagery collection but Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) for multispectral imagery collection. Photogrammetry to integrate the individual images into an orthophoto and digital surface model (for visible imagery) was done using Agisoft Metashape.

Data release for Investigation of a largescale common murre (Uria aalge) mortality event in California in 2015

During 2015, beachcast bird survey programs (Beach Watch and BeachCOMBERS) reported higher than average deposition of common murres (Uria aalge) on central and northern 
California beaches from August through December. Increased common murre mortality was not reported for southern California beaches. International Bird Rescue (IBR) located in Fairfield, CA and other coastal wildlife rehabilitation centers received more than 1,000 live, stranded and debilitated murres from Sonoma County to San Luis Obispo County during August – October. Approximately 2/3 of birds admitted to IBR were after-hatch-year birds in emaciated body condition and in various stages of molt, with extremely worn plumage. To determine the probable cause of death of beachcast carcasses, internal examinations were performed on a sample of birds at the California Department of Fish and Wildlife Marine Wildlife Veterinary Care and Research Center (MWVCRC; n=28) and the United States Geological Survey National Wildlife Health Center (NWHC, n=7). As observed by IBR, most birds examined during necropsy were emaciated, with starvation the most likely cause of death. Birds were also tested for underlying infectious diseases at NWHC and harmful algal bloom toxins at the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) and the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration’s Northwest Fisheries Science Center (NWFSC). Twenty-four out of 29 tested birds had detectable levels of domoic acid, and no indication of infectious disease was found. Emaciation is thought to be the cause of death for these birds, with a large warm water anomaly and harmful algal bloom playing a secondary detrimental role. While our work exclusively assesses the die-off in California, there was a large, concurrent die-off of murres in Alaska, Oregon, and Washington.

In 1984, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Office of Marine Geology, launched a program using the Geological LOng-Range Inclined Asdic (GLORIA) sidescan-sonar system to study the entire U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). From 1986 through 1989, the USGS and IOS (Institute of Oceanographic Sciences, U.K.) scientists conducted several surveys within the U.S. EEZ off Alaska. Four surveys during that time period (1986-1987) focused on the Bering Sea region. The results of these surveys were 30 digital mosaics of a 3 degree by 2 degree area with a 50-meter pixel resolution.

Short-Lived Radium-Isotope (Radium-223 and -224) Specific Activity for Samples Collected Between November 2022 and March 2024 Along the West Florida Shelf (Indian Rocks Beach, Nature Coast, and Venice Headland)

In 2021, a collaborative scientific investigation (National Science Foundation Grant Award OCE-2148989, Project 880516) was started for the purpose of quantifying shelf inventories and boundary fluxes of dissolved organic nitrogen and dissolved iron to the West Florida Shelf (WFS) to assess their role in supporting the oligotrophic WFS ecosystem. To assess the spatial and temporal variability in submarine groundwater as a boundary source to the shelf, scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (SPCMSC) designed a marine well network (three transects of wells across different coastal regions) and conducted five sampling events over a 16-month period. For each trip, samples were collected from shallow (&lt; 10 meters [m] water depth) offshore groundwater wells and coincidental water column stations. Samples were collected from the different water types for the determination of naturally occurring, short-lived isotopes of radium (Ra): Ra-223 (half-life, t1/2 = 11.4 days) and Ra-224 (t1/2 = 3.63 days). Identifiers for the transects and subsequent samples are two to three letter acronyms based on coastal communities or geographic features in Florida: Nature Coast near Hudson (NC); Indian Rocks Beach near Indian Rocks Beach (IRB), and Venice Headland near Venice (VH). Radium-223 and Radium-224 were absorbed onto manganese (di)oxide impregnated fibers (referred to as Mn-fibers from hereon) following exposure to seawater and the fiber was retained as the sample. The activities of Radium-223 and Radium-224 absorbed onto the Mn-fibers were measured on a set of Radium Delayed Coincidence Counters (RaDeCC) as outlined originally in Moore and Arnold (1996) and updated for procedural recommendations by Diego-Feliu and others (2020). Data included in this data release correspond to USGS Field Activity Number (FAN) 2022-340-FA, with associated events spanning over one year (November 2022 to March 2024) and are distinguished by alternative field activity numbers (Alt FANs) of 22WFS05, 23WFS01, 23WFS02, 23WFS03, 23WFS04, 24WFS01.
