2010-012-FA_MOSAIC_GC.tif - Composite sidescan-sonar mosaic collected by the U.S. Geological Survey in Woods Hole, MA  offshore of the Gulf Islands, MS, 2010 (UTM Zone 16N GeoTIFF)

In 2010, the U.S. Geological Survey in Woods Hole, MA and St. Petersburg, FL, in partnership with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Mobile District conducted geologic mapping to characterize the seafloor and shallow subsurface stratigraphy offshore of the Gulf Islands of Mississippi. The mapping was carried out during two cruises in March, 2010 on the R/V Tommy Munro of Biloxi, MS. Data were acquired with the following equipment: an SEA Ltd SwathPlus interferometric sonar (both 234 kHz and 468 kHz systems), a Klein 3000 and a Klein 3900 dual frequency sidescan-sonar, and an Edgetech 512i chirp subbottom profiling system. The long-term goal of this mapping effort is to produce high-quality, high-resolution geologic maps and geophysical interpretations that can be utilized to identify sand resources within the region and better understand the Holocene evolution and anticipate future changes in this coastal system.

Inundation Exposure Assessment for Aur Island, Aur Atoll, Republic of the Marshall Islands

As a low-lying island nation, the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) is at the forefront of exposure to climate change impacts, including, primarily, inundation (coastal flooding).  Increased water levels can stem from episodic events (storm surge, wave run-up, king tides) or from chronic conditions (long term sea-level rise).  Land elevation is the primary geophysical variable that determines exposure to inundation in coastal settings.  Accordingly, accurate coastal elevation data are a critical input for assessments of inundation exposure and vulnerability.  Previous research has demonstrated that the quality of data used for elevation-based assessments must be well understood and applied to properly model potential impacts.  The vertical uncertainty of the input elevation data controls to a large extent the increments of water level increase and planning horizons that can be effectively used in an assessment.  Recent high-resolution elevation data along the coast, such as the digital elevation models (DEMs) used here, exhibit high vertical accuracy, and thus have become indispensable for inundation exposure assessments.  When properly characterized, the vertical accuracy of the high-resolution, high-accuracy elevation data can be used to generate maps and report assessment results with the uncertainty stated in terms of a specific confidence level, which is the approach employed here.  This data release includes the results of a quantitative assessment of inundation exposure for Aur Island in Aur Atoll, including rigorous accounting for the vertical uncertainty in the input elevation model data.  Areas subject to marine inundation (direct hydrologic connection to the ocean) and low-lying land (no direct hydrologic flowpath to the ocean) were mapped and characterized for different inundation levels.

Attributes for NHDPlus Version 2.1 Catchments and Modified Routing of Upstream Watersheds for the Conterminous United States: NLCD 2011 Percent Imperviousness

This tabular data set represents NLCD 2011 percent imperviousness compiled for two spatial components of the NHDPlus version 2 data suite (NHDPlusv2) for the conterminous United States; 1) individual reach catchments and 2) reach catchments accumulated upstream through the river network. This dataset can be linked to the NHDPlus version 2 data suite by the unique identifier COMID.  The source data is the "NLCD 2011 Percent Developed Imperviousness (2011 Edition, amended 2014) - National Geospatial Data Asset (NGDA) Land Use Land Cover" which was produced by the United States Geological Survey (Yang and others, 2011). Units are percent. Reach catchment information characterizes data at the local scale. Reach catchments accumulated upstream through the river network characterizes cumulative upstream conditions.  Network-accumulated values are computed using two methods, 1) divergence-routed and 2) total cumulative drainage area. Both approaches use a modified routing database to navigate the NHDPlus reach network to aggregate (accumulate) the metrics derived from the reach catchment scale. (Schwarz and Wieczorek, 2018).

Data release for Integrating physical and economic data into experimental water accounts for the United States: lessons and opportunities

Water provides society with economic benefits that increasingly involve tradeoffs, making accounting for water quality, quantity, and their corresponding economic productivity more relevant in our interconnected world. In the past, physical and economic data about water have been fragmented, but integration is becoming more widely adopted internationally through application of the System of Environmental-Economic Accounts for Water (SEEA-Water), which enables the tracking of linkages between water and the economy over time and across scales. In this paper, we present the first national and subnational SEEA-Water accounts for the United States. We compile accounts for: (1) physical supply and use of water, (2) water productivity, (3) water quality, and (4) water emissions. These cover state and national levels for roughly the years 2000 to 2015. The results illustrate broad aggregate trends as well as subnational or industry-level phenomena. Specifically, the accounts show that total U.S. water use declined by 22% from 2000 to 2015, continuing a national trend seen since 1980. Total water use fell in 44 states, though groundwater use increased in 21 states. Nationally, a larger percent of water use comes from groundwater than at any time since 1950. Reductions in water use, combined with economic growth, lead to increases in water productivity for the entire national economy (65%), mining (99%), and agriculture (68%), though substantial variation occurred among states. Surface-water quality trends for the years 2002 to 2012 were most evident at regional levels, and differ by water-quality constituent and region. Chloride, nitrate, and total dissolved solids levels in groundwater had more consistent and widespread water-quality declines nationally. This work provides a baseline of recent historical water resource trends and their value in the U.S., as well as roadmap for the completion of future accounts for water, a critical ecosystem service. Our work also aids in the interpretation of ecosystem accounts in the context of long-term trends in U.S. water resources.

Datasets for assessing the impact of drought on arsenic exposure from private domestic wells in the conterminous United States

Documented in this data release are data used to model and map the probability of arsenic being greater than 10 micrograms per liter in private domestic wells throughout the conterminous United States during drought conditions (Lombard and others, 2020).  The model used to predict the probability of arsenic exceeding 10 micrograms per liter in private domestic wells was previously developed and documented by Ayotte and others (2017).  Independent variables in the model include groundwater recharge and annual precipitation.  In order to assess the impact of drought these variables were altered to simulate drought by reducing the 30-year average annual values by 25 and 50 percent.  The impact of drought was also assessed by using groundwater recharge and precipitation values from the year 2012 when approximately 66 percent of the contiguous United States experienced drought.  Data sources for groundwater recharge and precipitation for the year 2012 differ from those used in the original model and the drought simulations, therefore a 30-year average climate model was also produced using these new data sources (Thornton and others, 2018; Hay, 2019).  Data are documented from the original model, the drought simulations with reduced values of groundwater recharge and precipitation, the year 2012 and the average annual precipitation and groundwater recharge from 1981 - 2010 from the new data sources.   
The model input data that were used to make the prediction maps are within a zipped folder (Prediction_Input_Data.zip) that contains 50 files, one for each model predictor variable.  These include the predictor variables from the original model as well as the updated precipitation and groundwater recharge variables for the year 2012 and the average annual values based on the years1981 - 2010, and groundwater recharge and precipitation variables that were systematically decreased for drought simulations.  The model prediction outputs are within a zipped folder (Prediction_Output_Data.zip) that contains 10 tif-format raster files, one for each of the eight drought simulations, one for the year 2012, and one for the updated average annual precipitation and groundwater recharge variables for 1981 - 2010. A third zipped folder  (Change_Prob_Maps.zip) contains 10 tif-raster files that show the change in probability of arsenic exceeding 10 micrograms per liter in private domestic wells based on the drought simulations and the data used for the year 2012.

Coastwide Reference Monitoring System (CRMS) 2005, 2008, 2012, 2015 and 2018 Site 0608 land-water matrix

Wetland restoration efforts conducted by the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) in Louisiana rely on monitoring to determine the efficacy of these projects. The Coastwide Reference Monitoring System (CRMS) was developed to assist in a multiple-reference approach that uses aspects of hydrogeomorphic functional assessments and probabilistic sampling for monitoring. The CRMS program includes a suite of approximately 390 sites that encompass the range of hydrological and ecological conditions for each stratum. As part of CRMS, land and water classifications are created from Digital Orthophoto Quarter Quadrangles (DOQQs) approximately every three years at all CRMS sites. This dataset consists of a matrix of five land-water products (2005, 2008, 2012, YYYY and 2018).  The resulting matrix has 32 possible classes defined by the combination of land and water categories on those five dates.

Unvegetated to vegetated ratio at Thompsons Beach and Stone Harbor, New Jersey from 2014 to 2018

In 2012, Hurricane Sandy struck the Northeastern US causing devastation among coastal ecosystems. Post-hurricane marsh restoration efforts have included sediment deposition, planting of vegetation, and restoring tidal hydrology. The work presented here is part of a larger project funded by the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) to monitor the post-restoration ecological resilience of coastal ecosystems in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. The U.S. Geological Survey Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center made in-situ observations during 2018-2019 and 2022-2023 at two sites: Thompsons Beach, NJ and Stone Harbor, NJ. Marsh creek hydrodynamics and water quality including currents, waves, water levels, water temperature, salinity, pH, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, organic matter, chlorophyll-a, and suspended-sediment concentration and organic content were measured at both sites.  Additionally, marsh accretion and erosion were evaluated and used to interpret sediment budgets. These ecological data will be coupled with topographic lidar and imagery to explain the processes responsible for coastline evolution, and to evaluate restoration techniques and assess whether storm vulnerability has decreased relative to unaltered environments.
