Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument Seboeis Unit Vegetation Mapping Project: Aerial Imagery Point Locations

The Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument Seboeis Unit Vegetation Mapping Project was initiated in the fall of 2019 by a grant through the USGS Natural Resource Preservation Program to classify and map vegetation types of the Seboeis Unit thereby providing resource managers and biological researchers with useful baseline vegetation information. High-resolution aerial imagery was collected on October 5, 2019 with a Phase One iXU-R 180 RGB camera co-mounted with a Phase One iXU-RS 160 Achromatic camera. Images from the two cameras are merged to create 4-band imagery that can be displayed as either true-color (RGB) or color-infrared (CIR). The imagery has a resolution of approximately 0.15 meter/pixel (6 inches). A total of 1,354 tiles were collected. Brian Lubinski of USFWS collected project imagery with assistance from Benjamin Finley at USGS.

Seepage-run discharge measurements, August 12, 2019, Kaiwilahilahi Stream, Hawai'i

This data release contains a comma-delimited ascii file of four same-day, discrete discharge measurements made at sites along selected reaches of Kaiwilahilahi Stream, Hawai'i on August 12, 2019. These discrete discharge measurements form what is commonly referred to as a “seepage run.” The intent of the seepage run is to quantify the spatial distribution of streamflow along the reach during fair-weather, low-flow conditions, generally characterized by negligible direct runoff within the reach. The measurements can be used to characterize the net seepage of water into (water gain) or out of (water loss) the stream channel between measurement sites provided that the measurements were made during stable, nonchanging flow conditions (or, in some cases, were made simultaneously during transient flow conditions) and external surface inflows (for example, a tributary) or outflows (for example, a diversion) of water to the reach are quantified and accounted for in the computation of net seepage.

Bathymetric change of South San Francisco  Bay, California: 1979 to 2020

This 50-m-resolution surface presents bathymetric change of South San Francisco Bay, California (hereafter referred to as South Bay). This surface compares a 1-m-resolution digital elevation model (DEM) of the southern portion of San Francisco Bay (Fregoso and others, 2021), comprised of bathymetry data in the South Bay region from the time period referred to as the 2010s because the majority of the surveys were in that decade, to a 50-m-resolution DEM of South Bay comprised of historic surveys from 1979 to 1985 (referred to as the 1980s because the majority of the surveys were in that decade). The creation of this change surface involved the resampling of the 1-m-resolution 2010s DEM to match the 50-m-resolution South Bay DEM. Adjusting the 1990 surface to account for the modern tidal cycle while also applying a bias correction in attempts to account for interpolation uncertainties.

1-meter Digital elevation model (DEM) of beach topography of Minnesota Point near the Duluth Entry of Lake Superior, Duluth, MN, June 2021

This dataset is a pre-nourishment digital elevation model (DEM) of the beach topography of Minnesota Point near the Duluth Entry of Lake Superior, Duluth, Minnesota. The DEM has a 1-meter (m; 3.28084 feet) cell size and was created from a LAS dataset of terrestrial light detection and ranging (lidar) data representing the beach topography. Lidar data were collected June 24, 2021, using a boat mounted Velodyne VLP-16 unit. Methodology similar to Wagner, D.M., Lund, J.W., and Sanks, K.M., 2020 was used.

Elevation contours of beach topography and near-shore bathymetry of Minnesota Point near the Duluth Entry of Lake Superior, Duluth, MN, October 2021

The elevation contours in this dataset have a 2-foot (ft) interval and were derived from a digital elevation model (DEM) of beach topography and near-shore bathymetry of Minnesota Point near the Duluth Entry of Lake Superior, Duluth, Minnesota. The DEM has a 10-meter (m; 32.8084 feet) cell size and was created from a LAS dataset of terrestrial light detection and ranging (lidar) data representing the beach topography, and single-beam and multibeam sonar data representing the bathymetry. The survey area extended approximately 0.85 kilometers (0.5 miles) offshore, for an approximate 1.87 square kilometer surveyed area. Lidar data were collected using a boat mounted Velodyne VLP-16 unit. Multibeam sonar data were collected using a Norbit integrated wide band multibeam system compact (iWBMSc) sonar unit. Single-beam sonar data were collected using a Ceescope sonar unit. All elevation data were collected October 5-11, 2021. Methodology similar to Wagner, D.M., Lund, J.W., and Sanks, K.M., 2020 was used.

Reported and inventoried crop type and irrigated acreage in Gadsden County, Florida, 1982-2021

A table summarizing the inventoried acreage by crop type and irrigation system was compiled for Gadsden County, Florida. The irrigated acreage totals were derived from analyses of satellite and aerial imagery.  Crop types and irrigation system types were verified during field trips that started in May 2021 and concluded in August 2021. In addition, the table provides acreage totals by crop type reported by the U.S. Department of Commerce for 1982, the U.S. Department of Agriculture from 1987 through 2017, and Florida Statewide Agricultural Irrigation Demand for 2018-19.

Fish eggs collected in the St. Clair, Detroit, and St. Marys rivers, 2005-2022

A long-term, multiseason, fish egg sampling program is conducted annually on the Detroit, Saint Clair, and Saint Marys rivers to identify where productive fish spawning habitat currently exists and evaluate habitat restoration projects. Egg mats were placed on the river bottom during the spring and fall at historic spawning areas, candidate fish spawning habitat restoration sites, and completed spawning habitat restoration sites throughout the rivers. Widespread evidence was found of lithophilic spawning by numerous native fish species, including walleye (Sander vitreus), lake whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis), lake sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens), suckers (Family: Catostomidae), and trout-perch (Percopsis omiscomaycus). The data describe the number, density, date of collection, and exact collection location of fish eggs collected in the St. Clair (2010-2022), Detroit (2005-2022), and St. Marys rivers (2018-2022).

Sagebrush restoration following fire disturbance in the Virginia Mountains, Nevada (2018)

We developed a framework that strategically targets burned areas for restoration actions (e.g., seeding or planting sagebrush) that have the greatest potential to positively benefit Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter sage-grouse) populations through time. Specifically, we estimated sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) recovery following wildfire and risk of non-native annual grass invasion under three scenarios: passive recovery, active restoration with seeding, and active restoration with seedling transplants. We then applied spatial predictions of integrated nest site selection and survival models before wildfire, immediately following wildfire, and at 30 and 50 years post-wildfire based on each restoration scenario and measured changes in habitat. Application of this framework coupled with strategic planting designs aimed at developing patches of nesting habitat may help increase operational resilience for fire-impacted sagebrush ecosystems.

Sediment grain-size distributions from vibracores collected in Searsville Lake, Jasper Ridge Biological Preserve, Stanford, California

This portion of the data release presents sediment grain-size data from vibracores collected from Searsville Lake, Jasper Ridge Biological Preserve, Stanford, California in October 2018 (USGS Field Activity 2018-682-FA). In total, 36 samples were subsampled from two vibracores: JRBP2018-VC01A and JRBP2018-VC01B. The grain-size distributions of samples were determined using standard techniques developed by the USGS Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center sediment lab. The grain-size data are provided in a comma-delimited spreadsheet (.csv).
