Potentiometric surface dataset of the Sparta-Memphis aquifer in Arkansas, January 2013 - May 2013 (ver. 1.2, June 2021)

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Arkansas Natural Resources Commission, Arkansas Geological Survey, and the Union County Water Conservation Board, has monitored water levels as a part of an ongoing effort to provide information for management of the Sparta-Memphis aquifer.  The USGS has produced reports, at various intervals, to describe groundwater conditions in the Sparta-Memphis aquifer.   
These datasets provide the locations of and groundwater-level altitudes from 306 wells that were used to construct a potentiometric contour surface of the Sparta-Memphis aquifer.  Measurements were made from January through May 2013 and represent synoptic conditions. All wells were cased completely in and screened in the Sparta-Memphis aquifer.  Groundwater-level data are also available from the USGS National Water Information System (U.S. Geological Survey, 2018). First release: February 2018; revised September, 2020 (version 1.1). The previous version can be obtained by contacting the USGS Lower Mississippi-Gulf Water Science Center using the "Point of Contact" link on the landing page on ScienceBase.

CoSMoS (Coastal Storm Modeling System) Southern California v3.0 Phase 2 runup projections

Geographic extent of projected runup associated with the sea-level rise and storm condition indicated.
The Coastal Storm Modeling System (CoSMoS) makes detailed predictions (meter-scale) over large geographic scales (100s of kilometers) of storm-induced coastal flooding and erosion for both current and future sea-level rise (SLR) scenarios. CoSMoS v3.0 for Southern California shows projections for future climate scenarios (sea-level rise and storms) to provide emergency responders and coastal planners with critical storm-hazards information that can be used to increase public safety, mitigate physical damages, and more effectively manage and allocate resources within complex coastal settings.
Model details and data sources are outlined in CoSMoS_3.0_Phase_2_Southern_California_Bight:_Summary_of_data_and_methods (available at https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/file/get/57f1d4f3e4b0bc0bebfee139?name=CoSMoS_SoCalv3_Phase2_summary_of_methods.pdf). Phase 2 data for Southern California include flood-hazard information for the coast from the border of Mexico to Pt. Conception. Several changes from Phase 1 projections are reflected in many areas; please read the Summary of methods and inspect output carefully.  Data are complete for the information presented.

Data release for the geologic map of the Weldona 7.5' quadrangle, Morgan County, Colorado

The Weldona 7.5' quadrangle is located on the semiarid plains of
northeastern Colorado, along the South Platte River corridor where the
river has incised into Upper Cretaceous Pierre Shale. The Pierre Shale is
largely covered by surficial deposits that formed from alluvial, eolian,
and hillslope processes operating in concert with environmental changes
from the Pleistocene to the present. The South Platte River, originating
high in the Colorado Rocky Mountains, has played a major role in shaping
surficial geology in the map area, which is several tens of kilometers
downstream from where headwater tributaries join the river. Recurrent
glaciation (and deglaciation) of basin headwaters has affected river
discharge and sediment supply far downstream, influencing deposition of
alluvium and river incision in the Weldona quadrangle. During the
Pleistocene the course of the river within the map area shifted
progressively southward as it incised, and by late middle Pleistocene the
river was south of its present position, cutting and filling deep
paleochannels now covered by younger alluvium. The river shifted back to
the north during the late Pleistocene. Kiowa and Bijou Creeks are
unglaciated tributaries originating in the Colorado Piedmont east of the
Front Range that also have played a major role in shaping surficial
geology of the map area. Periodically during the late Pleistocene, major
flood events on these tributaries deposited large volumes of sediment at
their confluences, forming a broad, low-gradient fan of sidestream
alluvium that could have occasionally dammed the river for short periods
of time. Eolian sand deposits of the Sterling (north of river) and Fort
Morgan (south of river) dune fields cover much of the quadrangle and
record past episodes of sand mobilization during times of prolonged
drought. With the onset of irrigation and damming during historical
times, the South Platte River has changed from a broad, shallow, and
sandy braided river with highly variable seasonal discharge to a much
narrower, deeper river with braided-meandering transition morphology and
more uniform discharge.

MCHM Degradation Data Release

This USGS data release includes all the data presented in peer-reviewed publication entitled "Degradation of MCHM (4-methylcyclohexanemethanol) in Sediments from Elk River, West Virginia".  We conducted experiments on crude MCHM to examine photooxidation or biodegradation. We also assessed the potential of sediments to serve as a long-term source of MCHM and well as the potential for native microbial communities to catalyze the anaerobic breakdown of MCHM. We developed a quantitative method to measure the 2 isomers (cis- and trans-) of 4-MCHM, using solid phase micro-extraction (SPME), which had a minimum detection limit of 5 µg/L.  The data release shows that the abiotic degradation experiments showed no evidence of photooxidation or abiotic degradation over 35-days for either MCHM isomer. Experiments with sterilized Elk River sediments showed sorption within 2 weeks, with 31% of trans-4-MCHM and 17.5% of cis-4-MCHM lost from solution. Impacted sediments from the spill site released substantial concentrations of trans-4-MCHM (up to 40 µg/L) and minor amounts of cis-4-MCHM (at the detection limit ~ 4 µg/L) into the overlying water solution after sterilization, indicating that sediments retained MCHM 10 months after the spill. In anoxic microcosms, 300 µg/L cis- and 150 µg/L trans-4-MCHM degraded to non-detectable levels in 8-13 days in both impacted and background sediments coupled to iron and sulfate reduction. MCHM degraded to non-detectable levels within 4 days under aerobic conditions. Microbial communities at impacted sites differed in composition compared to background and were less affected by MCHM amendments. Our results to date indicate that MCHM is readily biodegradable under environmentally relevant conditions.

U.S. Geological Survey - Gap Analysis Project Species Range Maps CONUS_2001

GAP species range data are coarse representations of the total areal extent a species occupies, in other words the geographic limits within which a species can be found (Morrison and Hall 2002). These data provide the geographic extent within which the USGS Gap Analysis Project delineates areas of suitable habitat for terrestrial vertebrate species in their species habitat maps. The range maps are created by attributing a vector file derived from the 12-digit Hydrologic Unit Dataset (USDA NRCS 2009). Modifications to that dataset are described here &lt; https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/item/56d496eee4b015c306f17a42&gt;. Attribution of the season range for each species was based on the literature and online sources (See Cross Reference section of the metadata). Attribution for each hydrologic unit within the range included values for origin (native, introduced, reintroduced, vagrant), occurrence (extant, possibly present, potentially present, extirpated), reproductive use (breeding, non-breeding, both) and season (year-round, summer, winter, migratory, vagrant). These species range data provide the biological context within which to build our species distribution models. 
Versioning, Naming Conventions and Codes: A composite version code is employed to allow the user to track the spatial extent, the date of the ground conditions, and the iteration of the data set for that extent/date. For example, CONUS_2001v1 represents the spatial extent of the conterminous US (CONUS), the ground condition year of 2001, and the first iteration (v1) for that extent/date. In many cases, a GAP species code  is used in conjunction with the version code to identify specific data sets or files (i.e. Cooper’s Hawk Habitat Map named bCOHAx_CONUS_2001v1_HabMap).
