Data release for Greater Yellowstone Climate Assessment (vol 1), Chapter 7. Future Water Projections for the GYA

We apply a monthly water-balance model (MWBM) to simulate components of the water balance for the period 1950-2099 under RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 for the Greater Yellowstone Climate Assessment. We use the statistically downscaled MACAv2-METDATA temperature and precipitation data from 20 GCMs from the Climate Model Intercomparison Program Phase 5 (CMIP5) as input to the water balance model. The statistically downscaled dataset is: MACAv2-METDATA: Multivariate Adaptive Constructed Analogs (Abatzoglou &amp; Brown, 2012, bias corrected by METDATA, Abatzoglou, 2013) Users interested in the downscaled temperature and precipitation files are referred to the dataset home page: MACAv2-METDATA: http://maca.northwestknowledge.net The 20 included GCMs are: bcc-csm1-1-m, bcc-csm1-1, BNU-ESM, CanESM2, CCSM4, CNRM-CM5, CSIRO-Mk3-6-0, GFDL-ESM2G, GFDL-ESM2M, HadGEM2 CC365, HadGEM2-ES365, inmcm4, IPSL-CM5A-LR, IPSL CM5A-MR, IPSL-CM5B-LR, MIROC5, MIROC-ESM, MIROC ESM CHEM, MRI-CGCM3, NorESM1-M

Little brown bat occurrence model rangewide predictions for 2010 until 2019

False positive occupancy analysis predictions with model uncertainty based on summertime data provided to support the three bat species status assessment (SSA) for Myotis lucifigus (MYLU), Myotis septentrionalis (MYSE), and Perimyotis subflavus (PESU). The objectives outlined by the Fish and Wildlife Service’s SSA team were to estimate summertime distributions across the entire species range. Statistical analysis included five types of response data requested from the North American Bat Monitoring Program database (NABat): automatically identified stationary acoustic calls, manually vetted stationary acoustic calls, automatically identified mobile acoustic calls, manually vetted mobile acoustic calls, and capture records. Statistical analysis was for the summertime distribution modeling, data collected between June 1 and Sept 1 during 2010 until 2019 were only included.

Whole-rock chemistry of Hole G core samples from the San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth (SAFOD), California

We present whole-rock geochemical analyses of 27 Phase 3 core samples obtained from Hole G of the San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth, which crosses  the creeping section of the San Andreas Fault ~14 km NW of Parkfield, California. These new data will essentially double the published whole-rock chemical dataset for the SAFOD Hole G core. Two, meters-wide zones of foliated gouge where fault creep is concentrated were successfully cored in Hole G. The gouge zones are bounded on either side by variably deformed structural units of sedimentary rock. Sampling for this dataset was focused on the gouge-wall rock boundaries and meters-long sections of the wall rocks that previously lacked chemical data. Major, trace, and rare-earth element data were obtained for each analyzed core sample at the GeoAnalytical Lab of Washington State University, Pullman, Washington.

Percentage of annual days that river stage exceeds 'open river' conditions for lock and dams on the Upper Mississippi River, 1985-2015

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers river stage and discharge data (www.rivergages.com) were used to calculate longitudinal connectivity, which is represented by the number of days each lock and dam is in “open river” conditions. During high water conditions, dam gates are generally lifted out of the water or lowered to the river bottom, removing physical barriers to passage (“open river condition”). Each lock and dam in the Upper Impounded and Lower Impounded Reaches has a specific discharge or stage that when reached, results in open river conditions. For each lock and dam, we calculated the average annual number of days in which daily discharge or stage would have resulted in open river conditions between 1985 and 2015. The lock and dams on the Illinois River Reach do not have specific capacities, but records of when the dams are opened and closed were used to estimate criteria for open-river conditions (T. Knox, U.S Army Corps of Engineers, personal communication, 2017) and calculate the percent time in which the dam was in open river conditions over the same period.

Data release for Assessing the Uncertainties in Climatic Estimates Based on Vegetation Assemblages: Examples from Modern Vegetation Assemblages in the American Southwest

This data release includes climatic variables and associated descriptive material created for the purpose of assessing uncertainties associated with climatic estimates based on vegetation assemblages (Thompson and others, 2021). The data are from the interior of the western United States, including all of Arizona, and portions of California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, and Utah. The data are observed, interpolated, and estimated values for the mean temperature of the coldest month (MTCO, degrees C), mean temperature of the warmest month (MTWA, degrees C), and mean annual total precipitation (MAP, mm).

Enhanced 1-meter Composite Grayscale Image of the Sidescan-Sonar Data From National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Survey H11079 of the Sea Floor in Great Round Shoal Channel, Offshore Massachusetts (H11079_UTM19_1MRSSS.TIF, UTM Zone 19)

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management (MA CZM), is producing detailed geologic maps of the coastal sea floor. Sidescan-sonar imagery, originally collected by NOAA for charting purposes, provide a fundamental framework for research and management activities along this part of the Massachusetts coastline, show the composition and terrain of the seabed, and provide information on sediment transport and benthic habitat. While acceptable for charting purposes, the original data contained numerous tonal artifacts due to environmental conditions (such as sea state), variable system settings (such as gain changes), attitude variations in the flight path of the towfish, or processing (such as lack of line to line normalization).  Many of these artifacts have now been removed by enhancing the imagery to provide a more continuous grayscale GeoTIFF that enhances the true backscatter character and trends of the sea floor.

Flood inundation map geospatial datasets for Lake Ontario, New York

Static flood inundation boundary extents were created along the entire shoreline of Lake Ontario in Cayuga, Jefferson, Monroe, Niagara, Orleans, Oswego, and Wayne Counties in New York by using recently acquired (2007, 2010, 2014, and 2017) light detection and ranging (lidar) data. 
The flood inundation maps, accessible through the USGS Flood Inundation Mapping Program website at https://www.usgs.gov/mission-areas/water-resources/science/flood-inundation-mapping-fim-program, depict estimates of the areal extent and water depth of shoreline flooding in 8 segments corresponding to adjacent water-surface elevations (stages) at 8 USGS lake gages on Lake Ontario. 
This item includes data sets for segment H - Lake Ontario at Pier at Sackets Harbor, NY (station number 04250772).
These datasets demonstrate the estimated extent and depth of lake flooding at specific water levels of 1-foot increments from 247.0 ft to 251.0 ft (International Great Lakes Datum of 1985). In this study, wind and seiche effects were not represented; therefore, the flood inundation maps reflect five stages for Lake Ontario that are static for the entire shoreline area of the lake.
In this study, wind and seiche effects were not represented; therefore, the flood-inundation maps reflect five stages for Lake Ontario that are static for the entire shoreline area of the lake.
This item is a package of flood inundation data for segment H - Lake Ontario at Pier at Sackets Harbor, NY (station number 04250772) including:
1) 1 shapefile showing 5 estimated flood extents as polygons,
2) 5 raster datasets showing the depth of the water at 5 flood stages,
3) 1 shapefile showing the study limit extent of segment H, and
4) a metadata file.
The polygon flood extent shapefiles were developed from digital elevation models (DEMs) derived from the lidar to represent the estimated areal extent for five flood stages for segment H. 
The raster files depict the depth, in feet (referenced to the International Great Lakes Datum of 1985), of the water in the inundated areas along the shoreline of Lake Ontario during the five theoretical flood stages. 
The depth grids were created by subtracting the digital elevation model (DEM) values (in feet) from each of five raster files representing the flood extent at each constant water level (in feet). An approximately 100-meter buffer was used as the extent into the lake.
