Data for the Estimation of Regional Flow-Duration Curves for Indiana (ver. 3.0, December 2021)

Digital datasets were used to develop basin characteristics values that are used in multiple regression equations and tested for the use in predicting flow-duration curves (FDCs) in ungaged areas of Indiana. Several basin characteristics are easily derived from StreamStats basin delineations, such as basin area (https://streamstats.usgs.gov/ss/).  Other basin characteristics require ancillary datasets as input.  The data provided through this data release are those data that have been collected, tested, and ultimately selected as a basis for FDC development.  These include PRISM 3-Month Average Precipitation, Thickness and Coarseness of Quaternary Sediments, and Soil Available Water Capacity.
There are 6 continuous parameter grids (CPGs; for a definition, see https://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/412/section3.html) included in the Indiana portion of this data release: PRISM December to February Average Precipitation (prdecfeb00_cpg), PRISM September to November Average Precipitation (prsepnov00_cpg), index of permeability of Quaternary surficial sediments (qss_permb_cpg), index of permeability of Quaternary surficial sediments multiplied by their thickness (permbxthick_cpg), STATSGO Permeability (statsperm_cpg), and Available Water Capacity (watcapinil_cpg).

Illinois and Indiana have different datasets that are used in each state's StreamStats application and should not be interchanged in flow-duration curve equations.  Therefore, each state has a separate child item related to this main data release.  The metadata in these child items details the data sources, processes used to derive the final data layers, and attribute information.

Reservoir shoreline for the bathymetric survey of Lago Carite, Puerto Rico, January 2018

This dataset is a polygon shapefile containing the reservoir shoreline for the sedimentation survey of Lago Carite, Puerto Rico.This polygon was used to constraint the extent of the Triangulated irregular network (TIN) model and ultimately, to generate contours from bathymetric data collected during the period January 23 - January 30, 2018 by the Puerto Rico office of the Caribbean-Florida Water Science Center of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The goals of the survey were to determine reservoir infill sedimentation rates, generate a bathymetric map of the reservoir, and create a stage-volume relation. Field techniques used during the survey were similar to those outlined by Soler-López and Carrasquillo-Nieves, (2001) and Wilson and Richards (2006). A total of 137 planned transect lines were surveyed, and over 269,119 water-depth measurements were made across the reservoir. All water-depth data were collected using a Teledyne-Odom Echotrac CVM depth sounder coupled to a Global Positioning System (GPS). Esri ArcGIS, version 10.5 (reference similar to that in metadata for point shapefile), was used to edit the depth data and create a triangulated irregular network (TIN) model, from which bathymetric contours and a stage-volume relation were generated.

Stormwater Action Monitoring Basin Characteristics

The Stormwater Action Monitoring (SAM) program is a cumulative and regional monitoring effort in the Puget Sound region of Washington State. Under the SAM program, the status and trends of water chemistry, sediment chemistry, habitat and biota in small streams and nearshore marine waters in the Puget Lowlands are monitored and documented.   As part of recommendations to the program made in 2018, site selection in 2019 focused on small watersheds ranging in size from 2.5-50 km2 with varying amounts of urbanization.    A master list of 19,970 possible sampling sites was digitally snapped to the National Hydrologic Dataset (NHD) high-resolution version flowlines (1:24000), and from this a set of characterized nested basins were automatically delineated. These nested basins were then characterized by their land cover types using the 2016 National Land Cover Dataset (NLCD). 
To create the 19,970 basins, a custom ArcGIS tool was created to leverage the Water Boundary Dataset (WBD) at the Hydrologic Unit Code 12 level (HUC 12).  At the single HUC 12 level, the basin area is derived using the watershed tool in ArcGIS with a hydrologically conditioned 10-meter digital elevation model (DEM).  If the basin area extends beyond the boundaries of a single HUC 12, upstream HUC 12s can be recursively found and added to the basin utilizing the ‘ToHUC’ field, which is a standardized and quality-controlled field available within all WBD datasets.  The NLCD-based basin characteristics and upstream area are then computed and added to the finalized basin boundaries to create a filterable table for site selection. 
Nearshore basins were obtained from the Puget Sound Characterization project and characterized according to assessment unit.  Because these units account for issues unique to the nearshore environment, such as tidal influence and longshore currents, and interfluvial zones, they provide the most accurate characterization for in the nearshore environment.

Laboratory results for anthropogenic bioactive chemicals in the Illinois Waterway upstream and downstream of the bigheaded carp population front (2015; ver. 2.0, February 2020) Edition 2.0

Two non-native bigheaded carp species have invaded the Illinois River system and are a potential threat to the Great Lakes ecosystem. Discharges from industry, wastewater treatment plants, and urban and agricultural runoff, may be a factor contributing to the stalling of the upstream movement of the bigheaded carp population front near Illinois Waterway mile 278. In 2015, the U.S. Geological Survey collected 4 sets of water samples under a range of seasonal and hydrologic conditions from 3 locations upstream and 4 locations downstream from river mile 278 using a Lagrangian-style sampling strategy. Water samples were analyzed for over 639 constituents of which 280 were detected at least once, including many anthropogenic bioactive chemicals (ABCs) such as pesticides, pharmaceuticals, hormones, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Many ABCs were detected upstream of river mile 278, and some persisted or were introduced downstream. For example, in June 2015, at river mile 286, sampling detected 43 of 105 pharmaceuticals (total concentration and total load of 9,251 nanograms per liter (ng/L) and 66.2 kilograms per day (kg/d), respectively); 46 of 251 pesticides (total concentration and load of 5,956 ng/L and 84.5 kg/d); 9 of 55 wastewater indicator chemicals (total concentration and load of 4,092 ng/L and 58.0 kg/d); and 10 of 116 VOCs (total concentration and load of 9,626 ng/L and 137 kg/d). By the time that water moved downstream to river mile 243, sampling detected 13 pharmaceuticals (total concentration and load of 417 ng/L and 27.8 kg/d); 51 pesticides (total concentration and load of 11,207 ng/L and 1,687 kg/d); 5 wastewater indicator chemicals (total concentration and load of 309 ng/L and 46.5 kg/d); and 2 VOCs (total concentration and load of 340 ng/L and 51 kg/d).

Area of Sustainable Forest Habitat within the Mississippi Alluvial Valley Bird Conservation Region

Values for area of sustainable forest habitat for each species were obtained as the predicted occupied proportion of each 900 square meter pixel (i.e., occupancy probability x 900) within all forest patches deemed large enough to harbor a sustainable population of the species. The area required for a sustainable population of each species was derived from credible intervals associated with population trends from historical (1966-2015) BBS data (Sauer and others, 2017). For each silvicolous bird species in the Mississippi Alluvial Valley, we assumed the minimum sustainable population was the number of birds needed to ensure ≤1% probability that the population would be extirpated (i.e., drop below a quasi-extinction threshold) during a 100-year period wherein annual population change was randomly selected from the credible interval associated with each species’ population trend. We used the mean of 500 simulation replicates conducted in R (Version 3.4.4; https://www.r-project.org/) as the presumed minimum sustainable population for each species. We arbitrarily set the quasi-extinction threshold at 25 breeding pairs. Because species with credible intervals associated with their trend estimates that were inclusively positive never declined in population, by default these species had a minimum sustainable population of 25 pairs.
