Visible, Near Infrared, Shortwave Infrared and Thermal Infrared Laboratory Spectra of Samples of Compositionally Variable Dune Fields in the Western United States and Alaska - Sample DS6

This data represents laboratory reflectance and emissivity spectral measurements of dune sand samples collected from a variety of dune types and mineralogical compositions from eight dune field locations in Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada and New Mexico (labeled and designated as samples DS-1 through DS-8). Each sample were sieved into various size classes and measured both prior to and after sieving. Visible through Near Infrared through Shortwave Infrared (~0.4 - 2.5 microns) reflectance were measured using an artificial light source attached to an Analytical Spectral Devices (ASD) spectrometer. Hemispherical reflectance measurements spanning Mid-IR wavelengths, including the Thermal Infrared (~2.0 - 15.0 microns), were measured using a Nicolet FTIR spectrometer with a gold integrating sphere attachment. These latter measurements were converted from wavenumber to wavelength, and inverted to measure emissivity. TIR spectral measurements were conducted for most of our eight dune samples prior to sieving and does not include measurements of various size fractions, except for one sample (DS-8). VSWIR reflectance measurements are included for each of the full composite samples prior to sieving, as well as selected size fractions after sieving such as the smallest (e.g. pan fraction) and largest measurable size fractions. This metadata entry describes the CSV spectral files associated with sample DS-6, in particular.

Approximate Regional Groundwater Divide on Long Island, New York, April-May 2016

This groundwater divide feature was approximated from and interpolated water table raster for Long Island, April-May 2016.  Generally, the highest altitudes of the water table were used to draw the groundwater divide, which implies the groundwater flow direction.  The feature is presented in Sheet 1 of Scientific Investigations Map 3398.

Summary of dissolved pesticide concentrations in discrete surface-water samples collected on the islands of Kauaʻi and Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi November 2016–April 2017

This dataset includes pesticide-concentration results for 32 discrete water samples that were collected on the islands of Kauai and Oahu between November 21, 2016 and April 29, 2017. The water samples were collected for the Pesticide-Monitoring Program of Surface Water in the State of Hawaii. This dataset consists of five files: a summary file, a sample-list file, two results files, and this metadata file. The summary file (Summary_of_pesticide_results_for_discrete_samples_Hawaii_Nov2016_Apr2017.pdf) includes maps and a table of the sample sites, graphs that summarize the most frequently detected pesticide compounds in the water samples, and tables that summarize comparisons between (1) concentrations of detected pesticide compounds and (2) water-quality standards, criteria, and benchmarks. The sample-list file [List_of_discrete_samples_Hawaii_Nov2016_Apr2017.csv] contains a list of 32 samples and attributes that describe where, when, and how each sample was collected. The first results file [All_pesticide_results_(ngL)_for_discrete_samples_Hawaii_Nov2016_Apr2017.csv] contains all pesticide-concentration results (in nanograms per liter) for all 32 samples, and these results were obtained from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Water Information System (NWIS) database (https://doi.org/10.5066/F7P55KJN). The second results file [Pesticide_results_(ngL)_for_detections_only_in_discrete_samples_Hawaii_Nov2016_Apr2017.csv] is a subset of the first results file, and contains pesticides-concentration results for pesticide-compound detections only. For context, both results files include, for each pesticide result, the maximum contaminant level in drinking water, the lowest human-health benchmark considered, and the lowest aquatic-life benchmark considered, if available. This dataset contains summaries and results that were derived from data retrieved from NWIS on January 18, 2018. The data that were retrieved from NWIS are subject to revision, so users should check NWIS (https://doi.org/10.5066/F7P55KJN) for the most current verion of the data.

An Updated Vs30 Map for California with Geologic and Topographic Constraints (ver. 1.1, July 2022)

This data release provides a map of the time-averaged shear-wave velocity in the upper 30 m (Vs30) for California using the method described by Thompson and others (2014). There are two adjustments to the algorithm described by Thompson and others (2014), which is built on the geology-based Vs30 map by Wills and Clahan (2006). In this data release, we use the Wills and others (2015) updated geology-based Vs30 map. The second change is that we have adjusted the kriging procedure so that measured Vs30 values do not affect the predictions across distinctly different geologic units.

Landsat classification of surface water for multiple seasons to monitor inundation of playa wetlands

To improve understanding of the distribution of important, ephemeral wetland habitats across the Great Plains, we documented the occurrence and distribution of surface water in playa wetland complexes for four different years across the Great Plains Landscape Conservation Cooperative (GPLCC) region. Years of research on playas has yielded multiple mechanisms and projections for sub-regions of the LCC area, but a complete, region-wide inventory and assessment has not been completed. This information is important because it informs habitat and population managers about the timing and location of habitat availability. Data representing the presence of water, percent of the area inundated with water, and the spatial distribution of playa wetlands with water, with an accurate time-stamp, are needed for a host of resource inventory, monitoring and research applications. For example, the distribution of inundated wetlands, represents the distribution of available habitat for resident shorebirds and water birds, stop-over habitats for migratory birds, connectivity and clustering of wetland habitats, and surface water recharge to the Ogallala aquifer; there is considerable variability in the distribution of playa wetlands holding water through time. Clear documentation of these spatially and temporally intricate processes will provide data required to assess connections between multiple environmental drivers, such as climate, land use, soil, and topography and the probability of inundation. Data presented here document the area covered by water according to archived Landsat TM data. Classifications representing 4 years of imagery (1989, 1996, 2004 and 2011) are provided.

Point measurements of temperature and water quality in the main channel and off-channel features of the lower reaches of the Willamette River, Clackamas River, Molalla River, and Johnson Creek, 2017

Water quality point measurements were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey along the lower Willamette River near the cities of Lake Oswego and Wilsonville, Oregon, as well as the lowest two kilometers of the Clackamas River, Molalla River, and Johnson Creek. These measurements were collected in the main channel and off-channel features on discreet dates from April through October of 2017. All measurements include location, time, temperature, and depth below water surface, while many also include specific conductance, dissolved oxygen, pH, and turbidity.
