AndreaBozzo/ceres-open-data-index huggingface dataset:
Digital data sets that describe aquifer characteristics of the alluvial and terrace deposits along the Beaver-North Canadian River from the panhandle to Canton Lake in northwestern Oklahoma

This data set consists of digital water-level elevation contours
for the Quaternary alluvial and terrace deposits along the
Beaver-North Canadian River from the panhandle to Canton Lake in
northwestern Oklahoma in 1977 and 1978. Ground water in 830
square miles of the Quaternary-age alluvial and terrace aquifer
is an important source of water for irrigation, industrial,
municipal, stock, and domestic supplies. The aquifer consists of
poorly sorted, fine to coarse, unconsolidated quartz sand with
minor amounts of clay, silt, and basal gravel. The hydraulically
connected alluvial and terrace deposits unconformably overlie
the Tertiary-age Ogallala Formation and Permian-age formations.
The water-level elevations measured in 1977 and 1978 ranged from
2,260 feet above sea level in the northwest to 1,620 feet above
sea level in the southwest. The water-level elevation contours
were digitized from a folded paper map in a ground-water
modeling report about the aquifer. The source map was published
at a scale of 1:250,000.

Generalized thickness of the Madison Limestone and Englewood Formation, Black Hills, South Dakota.

This data set is a polygon coverage created in ARC/INFO that
represents the generalized thickness of the Madison Limestone
and Englewood Formation, Black Hills, South Dakota. The
thickness of the Madison Limestone and Englewood Formation was
determined by substracting the elevation of the top of the
Deadwood Formation from the elevation of the top of the
Madison Limestone.  The elevations for the tops of the
formations were determined from geologic logs for wells drilled
as of 1998.  The thickness coverage contains polygons that have
single integer values representing a range of thickness.

Color Shaded-Relief GeoTIFF Image Showing the 2-m Bathymetry Generated from National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Survey H11446 North of Orient Point, New York (H11446_MB2M_GEO.TIF, Geographic, WGS84)

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 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 Long Island Sound, shows the composition and terrain of the seabed, and provides information on sediment transport and benthic habitat. Interpretive data layers were derived from the multibeam echo-sounder data and sidescan-sonar data collected north of Orient Point, New York. During April 2010, bottom photographs and surficial sediment data were acquired as part of a ground-truth reconnaissance survey. For more information on the ground-truth survey see http://quashnet.er.usgs.gov/data/2010/10010/.

Tracklines of side-scan sonar data collected by the U.S. Geological Survey offshore of the Chandeleur Islands, LA, 2007 (sidescan_trk_07007.shp, polylines)

In 2006 and 2007, the U.S. Geological Survey, in partnership with Louisiana Department of Natural Resources and the University of New Orleans, conducted geologic mapping to characterize the sea floor and shallow subsurface stratigraphy offshore of the Chandeleur Islands in Eastern Louisiana. The mapping was carried out during two cruises on the R/V Acadiana. Data were acquired with the following equipment: an SEA Ltd SwathPlus interferometric sonar (234 kHz), Klein 3000 dual frequency side-scan sonar, and an Edgetech 512i chirp subbottom profiling system. The long-term goal of this mapping effort is to produce high-quality geologic maps and geophysical interpretations that can be utilized to investigate the impact of Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and to identify sand resources within the region.

Laboratory Observations of Oscillatory Flow Over Sand Ripples: Image Metadata

These data comprise laboratory observations of oscillatory flows over mobile sand ripples. The data were collected January 6-7, 2016, in the small-oscillatory flow tunnel (S-OFT) in the Sediment Dynamics Laboratory at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), Stennis Space Center, Mississippi (MS), while Donya Frank-Gilchrist was a National Research Council post-doctoral fellow there. The flow tunnel has a 2-m long acrylic test section which was filled with coarse quartz sand. A piston and flywheel were used to drive the oscillatory flows, from which equilibrium sand ripples developed. The experimental setup comprised of three Photron cameras and a double-pulsed Litron Nd:YAG laser, synced and sampled at 100 hertz (Hz) in double-framed mode. The fluid velocities were obtained through Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) processed with LaVision DaVis 11 software. The images were also rectified and exported from the original file format (.im7) to a non-proprietary format (Tagged Image File Format, .tif) for inclusion in this data release. For further information regarding experimental setup, methods, and results, refer to Frank-Gilchrist and others (2018, 2024).

HW3_Q64.TIF - Hawaii III - Northwestern Hawaii U.S. EEZ GLORIA sidescan-sonar data mosaic (12 of 22) (LCC, 50 m, WGS84)

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 1989 through 1991, the USGS and IOS (Institute of Oceanographic Sciences, U.K.) scientists conducted several surveys within the EEZ off Hawaii. Six surveys during that time period focused on the northwestern Hawaii region. The results of these surveys were 22 digital mosaics of approximately of approximately a 2 degree by 2 degree area with a 50-meter pixel resolution.

Vectorized Marsh Shorelines for the Grand Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve in Mississippi and Alabama from 1848 to 2017

This dataset represents a compilation of vector shorelines in the Grand Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve (Mississippi and Alabama) from 1848 to 2017. Shoreline data were obtained from multiple data sources, including the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the Grand Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve (GBNERR), and the Mississippi Office of Geology (MOG). All shoreline data types have uncertainty associated with delineating the shoreline location, particularly with vegetated coastlines. For this study, the "apparent shoreline" was mapped for all data sources. The "apparent shoreline" is defined as "where the actual shoreline is obscured by marsh, mangrove, cypress, or other type of marine vegetation, the outer edge of the vegetation is mapped” (Shalowitz, 1964). In the case of aerial imagery, vegetation-water boundary was digitized. Field-surveys identified the edge of the dominate vegetation or the eroding scarp line.
Shorelines were obtained from the original provider, or digitized, and merged into a single file, in order to conduct shoreline change analyses. Datasets were compiled and analyzed using the R package Analyzing Moving Boundaries Using R (AMBUR) program. Rates of shoreline change can be used for evaluating living shoreline resources, decision-making for future resource planning, and restoration of both protected and open-ocean shorelines. This data release contains shorelines from 1848-2017 along with transects with rates of change joined to the data table. This metadata record should be reviewed in its entirety to ensure specific data is suitable for other studies as some shorelines were specifically digitized for use with transects in this study. Shorelines from 1942, 1975, 1986, 1992, 2004, 2006, 2014 have limited spatial resolution. All shorelines labeled GBNERR in the “Source” field of the attribute table, and 2016 and 2017 GPS shorelines from the USGS, are previously unpublished data sets.

This data archive includes R code and data for reproducing the analyses and figures in Lafferty, Metabarcoding is (usually) more cost effective than seining or qPCR for detecting tidewater gobies and other estuarine fishes.
 
To view the supplementary tables, open the Fig&amp;TableSuppl.docx file. This file also includes the manuscript figures and tables and some explanatory text about how to generate them.
To reproduce the figures, open the Fig&amp;TableCode.Rmd in R studio and be sure the needed csv files included in the Dryad repository are in the working directory. The data files include more information than used in the analyses and can be used for other purposes. The code is not software, nor is it intended as an R package, but the code is annotated so others can understand and manipulate it.
For each CSV file there is an associated metadata file that defines entries and columns and an information file that contains an abstract and ownership information.
One of the data files required to reproduce the analyses (Schmelzle&amp;Kinziger_occupancy.csv) was created from previously published data and was not produced by the author.  Please cite it as:
