Hydrogeologic map of the Death Valley regional ground-water flow system, Nevada and California

This digital dataset represents the surface hydrogeology of an approximately 45,000 square-kilometer area 
of the Death Valley regional ground-water flow system (DVRFS) in southern Nevada and California. Faunt 
and others (2004) constructed the map by merging mapped lithostratigraphic units into 27 hydrogeologic 
units (HGUs). The HGUs represent rocks and deposits of considerable lateral extent and distinct hydrologic 
properties. The hydrogeologic map was fundamental to the development of a hydrogeologic framework 
model and a transient ground-water flow model of the DVRFS. These models are the most recent in a 
number of regional-scale models developed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) for the U.S. Department 
of Energy (DOE) to support investigations at the Nevada Test Site (NTS) and at Yucca Mountain, Nevada 
(see "Larger Work Citation", Chapter A, page 8).

Contours--Offshore of Ventura, California

This part of DS 781 presents data for the bathymetric contours of the Offshore of Ventura map area, California. The vector data file is included in "Contours_OffshoreVentura.zip," which is accessible from https://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/781/OffshoreVentura/data_catalog_OffshoreVentura.html. These data accompany the pamphlet and map sheets of Johnson, S.Y., Dartnell, P., Cochrane, G.R., Golden, N.E., Phillips, E.L., Ritchie, A.C., Kvitek, R.G., Greene, H.G., Krigsman, L.M., Endris, C.A., Seitz, G.G., Gutierrez, C.I., Sliter, R.W., Erdey, M.D., Wong, F.L., Yoklavich, M.M., Draut, A.E., and Hart, P.E. (S.Y. Johnson and S.A. Cochran, eds.), 2013, California State Waters Map Series—Offshore of Ventura, California: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Map 3254, pamphlet 42 p., 11 sheets, scale 1:24,000, https://doi.org/10.3133/sim3254.
Contours of the Offshore of Ventura map area, California, were generated from bathymetry data collected by California State University, Monterey Bay, Seafloor Mapping Lab (CSUMB) and by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). Most of the offshore area was mapped by CSUMB in the summers of 2006 and 2007, using a 244-kHz Reson 8101 multibeam echosounder. The seafloor west of Ventura Harbor was mapped by the USGS in 2006 and 2010, using 117-kHz (2006) and 234.5-kHz (2010) SEA (AP) Ltd. SWATHplus-M phase-differencing sidescan sonars. These mapping missions combined to collect bathymetry from about the 10-m isobath to beyond the 3-nautical-mile limit of California's State Waters. A smooth arithmetic mean convolution function applying a weight of one-ninth to each cell in a 3-pixel by 3-pixel matrix was then applied iteratively to the grid ten times. Following smoothing, contour lines were generated at 10-m intervals, from -10 m to -100 m, and at 50-m intervals, from -100 m to -400 m, then the contours were clipped to the boundary of the map area.

Location of sound velocity profiles along with profile plots collected in 2015 by the U.S. Geological Survey along the Delmarva Peninsula, MD and VA (PNG images, CSV text, ASVP text, and Esri point shapefile, GCS WGS 84)

The Delmarva Peninsula is a 220-kilometer-long headland, spit, and barrier island complex that was significantly affected by Hurricane Sandy in the fall of 2012. The U.S. Geological Survey conducted cruises during the summers of 2014 and 2015 to map the inner continental shelf of the Delmarva Peninsula using geophysical and sampling techniques to define the geologic framework that governs coastal system evolution at storm-event and longer timescales. Geophysical data collected during the cruises include swath bathymetric, sidescan sonar, chirp and boomer seismic reflection profiles, grab sample and bottom photograph data.

LANDFIRE Remap Fuel Disturbance (FDist) CONUS

LANDFIRE (LF) disturbance products are developed to provide temporal and spatial information related to landscape change. LF Remap Fuel Disturbance (FDist) uses the latest 10 years of Annual Disturbance products from the effective disturbance year. FDist is a refinement of past LF versions and is created from Remap Historical Disturbance (HDist) by grouping similar disturbances types, which represent disturbance scenarios within the fuels environment.
LF Remap contains refinements to the FDist process enabling the creation of pre-disturbance fuel vegetation within disturbed areas. This new approach facilitates the production of capable fuels products, such as FDist. The capable fuels process calculates Time Since Disturbance (TSD) assignments for disturbed areas using an “effective year”. Year 2019 fuels, for example, may be calculated for the year 2019. This new process considers all the existing disturbances included in LF Remap and assigns fuels to the pre-disturbance vegetation based on the adjusted TSD, making the products "2019 capable fuels." By synchronizing TSDs for surface and canopy fuels, these refinements improve performance of fire behavior modeling. LF Remap fuel products in areas mapped as disturbed within the past 10 years are delivered with this capable fuels functionality. More information about capable fuels can be found at https://www.landfire.gov/lf_remap.php.

Sea Turtle Nesting Decision Points and Cross-Shore Beach Profile Data Collected on May 30, 2019, from Melbourne Beach, Florida

On May 30, 2019, surveys were conducted on ‘high-density’ sea turtle nesting areas located on Melbourne Beach, Florida. This dataset, Melbourne_20190530.zip, was collected and processed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (SPCMSC) and includes sea turtle nesting decision point locations (.csv) and cross-shore beach profiles (.xyz) at those locations. Utilizing previously published methods for collecting beach profile data (Henderson and others, 2016; Brown and others, 2018), data were acquired by USGS scientists walking along cross-shore transect lines while carrying a survey backpack that was equipped with a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver and GNSS antenna. The horizontal position data are provided in the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinate system, Zone 17 North (17N), referenced to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83), and the elevation data are referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88), GEOID12B.

sir2016-5029_Hi_Res_Extents: Flood-Inundation Maps for the Coast Fork Willamette River from Creswell, Oregon to Goshen, Oregon

The Digital Elevation Model (DEM) utilized for this Willamette FIS submittal was produced by 
combining multiple overlapping topographic surveys for the Middle Fork and Coast Fork of the 
Willamette River. The DEM was created from four sources: LIDAR of the Springfield area that 
was flown in 2008, LIDAR of Silk Creek that was flown in 2011, LIDAR of Fall Creek that was 
flown in 2012, and photogrammetry of the Middle Fork and Coast Fork of the Willamette River 
that was flown in 2004. In areas where no high-resolution elevation data were available, USGS 
National Elevation Dataset (NED) data were used to supplement the DEM. This feature 
represents the areas that higher quality information is presented. The horizontal datum of the 
DEM is NAD 1983 State Plane-Oregon South HARN with units of International Feet (NAD83). 
The vertical datum of the elevation model is NAVD 1988 with units of international feet (NAVD-88). 
The higher resolution elevation data means that there is more confidence in the flooded area 
polygon and water depth for a particular water surface elevation.

Processed continuous resistivity profiling data collected in the Indian River Bay, Delaware, on April 15, 2010, on U.S. Geological Survey Field Activity 2010-006-FA

A geophysical survey to delineate the fresh-saline groundwater interface and associated sub-bottom sedimentary structures beneath Indian River Bay, Delaware, was carried out in April 2010. This included surveying at higher spatial resolution in the vicinity of a study site at Holts Landing, where intensive onshore and offshore studies were subsequently completed. The total length of continuous resistivity profiling (CRP) survey lines was 145 kilometers (km), with 36 km of chirp seismic lines surveyed around the perimeter of the bay. Medium-resolution CRP surveying was performed using a 50-meter streamer in a bay-wide grid. Results of the surveying and data inversion showed the presence of many buried paleochannels beneath Indian River Bay that generally extended perpendicular from the shoreline in areas of modern tributaries, tidal creeks, and marshes. An especially wide and deep paleochannel system was imaged in the southeastern part of the bay near White Creek. Many paleochannels also had high-resistivity anomalies corresponding to low-salinity groundwater plumes associated with them, likely due to the presence of fine-grained estuarine mud and peats in the channel fills that act as submarine confining units. Where present, these units allow plumes of low-salinity groundwater that was recharged onshore to move beyond the shoreline, creating a complex fresh-saline groundwater interface in the subsurface. The properties of this interface are important considerations in construction of accurate coastal groundwater flow models. These models are required to help predict how nutrient-rich groundwater, recharged in agricultural watersheds such as this one, makes its way into coastal bays and impacts surface water quality and estuarine ecosystems. For more information on the survey conducted for this project, see https://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/fan_info.php?fan=2010-006-FA.

14BIM05_SSS_50cm_WGS84_UTM16N_Tile4: The 0.50-meter sample resolution of the side-scan sonar data collected in 2014 near Breton National Wildlife Refuge, Louisiana. This is tile four of four for this dataset.

As part of the Barrier Island Monitoring Project, scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center conducted nearshore geophysical surveys off Breton and Gosier Islands, Louisiana, in July and August of 2014. To assist the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) with restoration planning efforts, the USGS was tasked with answering fundamental questions about the physical environment of the southern Chandeleur Islands, including the geology, morphology, and oceanography. Baseline data needed to answer these questions was either insufficient or missing in the area.  The USGS conducted a comprehensive geologic investigation in the summer of 2014 by collecting geophysical and sedimentological data.
Breton Island, located at the southern end of the Chandeleur Island chain, Louisiana, was recognized as a natural and globally important nesting sanctuary for several bird species and was established as the Breton National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) in 1904.  The aerial extent of Breton Island has diminished 90% since 1920.  Land loss is attributed to ongoing relative sea-level rise, diminished sediment supply, and storm impacts.  The bird population on Breton Island has also declined over the years, most notably after Hurricane George in 1998 and Hurricane Katrina in 2015, which completely submerged the island.  Despite the decreasing habitable acreage, migratory seabirds continue to return and utilize Breton Island.  To prevent the island from being completely submerged in the future and to protect, stabilize, and provide more nesting and foraging areas for the birding population, the USFWS is proposing a restoration effort to rebuild Breton Island to its pre-Katrina footprint.
This Data Series serves as an archive of processed interferometric-swath, single-beam bathymetry, and side-scan sonar data collected in the nearshore of Breton and Gosier Islands, NWR, Louisiana.  The data were collected during two USGS cruises (USGS Field Activity Numbers 2014-314-FA and 2014-317-FA) in July and August 2014. Geographic Information System data products include a 100 meter-cell-size interpolated bathymetry grid surface, trackline maps, and point data files. Additional files include error analysis maps, Field Activity Collection System logs, and formal Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) metadata.

Airborne geophysical survey: Ketchikan

Aeromagnetic data were collected along flight lines by instruments in an aircraft that recorded magnetic-field intensity values and location. In surveys such as this one where the data were originally collected in digital form and not digitized from contour maps, the information we provide typically includes latitude, longitude, magnetic anomaly in nanoTeslas, and intermediate values used to derive the magnetic anomaly such as total magnetic field.

Sedimentary Data from the Coastal Marshes Fringing the Lower Waccasassa River, Northwest Florida

Scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center extracted sediment and surface samples along transects at three saltmarsh sites situated on the lower end of the Waccasassa River in north-west Florida in order to increase understanding of the region’s environmental history and the ongoing soil chemical processes. To this end, they obtained 17 (ten long and seven short) sediment cores and seven surface samples from saltmarshes along the margins of the river, during field trips in November 2014 and February 2015. Site names are WC01, WC04, WC05, WC10, WC11, WC12, WC20, WC21, WC22, and WC23. Long cores from each location are given the location name and the suffix “R”, surface samples are noted with a “S”, and short cores are given the location name and the suffix “D”, except for the cores taken at sites WC22 and WC23. At those two sites, the short cores were obtained by extracting two parallel peat auger samples to a depth of 50 cm, named WC22Ra-b, and WC23Ra-b, respectively.
