Presence and abundance models management summaries for four invasive plant species

We developed habitat suitability models for four invasive plant species of concern to Department of Interior land management agencies. We generally followed the modeling workflow developed in Young et al. 2020, but developed models both for two data types, where species were present and where they were abundant. We developed models using five algorithms with VisTrails: Software for Assisted Habitat Modeling [SAHM 2.1.2]. We accounted for uncertainty related to sampling bias by using two alternative sources of background samples, and constructed model ensembles using the 10 models for each species (five algorithms by two background methods) for four different thresholds. This data bundle contains the presence and abundance merged data sets to create models for medusahead rye, red brome, venanata and bur buttercup, the eight raster files associated with each species/ data type (presence or abundance), and tabular summaries by management unit (including each species/ data type combination). The spatial data are organized in a separate folder for each species, each containing four rasters. Each of the rasters represent the following, with an occurrence (occ) and abundance (abund) version:
1) 1st - one percentile threshold
2) 1st_masked - one percentile threshold with Restricted Environmental Conditions
The bundle documentation files are:
1) 'AbundOccur.xml' contains FGDC project-level metadata 
2) 'mergedDataset.csv', contains the merged data set used to create the models, including location and environmental data.
3) XX.tif where XX is the raster type explained above (occ or abund; masked or not).
4) managementSummaries.csv, which this metadata file specifically describes, is the tabular summaries by management unit.

Flood inundation geospatial datasets for Papillion Creek near Offutt Air Force Base, Nebraska

Digital flood-inundation maps for an 8-mile reach of the Papillion Creek near Offutt Air Force Base, were created by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in cooperation with the U.S. Air Force, Offutt Air Force Base. The flood-inundation maps, which can be accessed through the USGS Flood Inundation Mapping Science website at https://www.usgs.gov/mission-areas/water-resources/science/flood-inundation-mapping-fim-program, depict estimates of the areal extent and depth of flooding corresponding to selected water levels (stages) at the USGS streamgages on the Papillion Creek at Fort Crook, Nebr. (station 06610795) and Papillion Creek at Harlan Lewis Road near La Platte, Nebr. (station 06610798). Near-real-time stages at these streamgages may be obtained from the USGS National Water Information System web interface at https://doi.org/10.5066/F7P55KJN or from the National Weather Service Advanced Hydrologic Prediction Service at https:/water.weather.gov/ahps/.
Flood profiles were computed for the stream reach by means of a one-dimensional step-backwater model. The model was calibrated using the current (2021) stage-discharge relation at the Papillion Creek at Fort Crook, Nebr, streamgage.
The hydraulic model then was used to compute 157 water-surface profiles for scenarios where combination of stage values in 1-foot (ft) stage intervals, that ranged between 27 and 39 ft at the Papillion Creek at Fort Crook streamgage and 13.9 and 30.9 ft at the Papillion Creek at Harlan Lewis Road streamgage as referenced to the local datum. The simulated water-surface profiles then were combined with a geographic information system (GIS) digital elevation model (DEM) with a 3.281-ft grid to delineate polygon shapefiles, and depth grids of inundated areas. Along with the inundated area maps, polygon shapefiles and depth grids of areas behind the levees were created to display the uncertainty of these areas, if a levee breech were to occur.  These 'areas of uncertainty' files have '_breach' and '_breachgrid' appended to the file names in the data release. The availability of these maps, along with information regarding current stage from the USGS streamgage, will provide emergency management personnel and residents with information that is critical for flood response activities such as evacuations and road closures, as well as for postflood recovery efforts.

SAWSC PeakFQ input and output files for at-site flood-frequency statistics

Reliable estimates of the magnitude and frequency of floods are an important part of the framework for hydraulic-structure design and flood-plain management in Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina (study area). Flood-frequency estimates also are needed at ungaged stream locations. A process known as regionalization was used to develop regression equations to estimate the magnitude and frequency of floods at ungaged locations in the study area.
The previous update to rural flood frequency estimates in the study area was published using annual peak-flow data through 2006. This updated study utilizes newer methods outlined in Bulletin 17C and newly developed regional skew to estimate the magnitude and frequency of floods in the study area based on data through 2017.

Analytical Model Relating Precipitation Distributions to Streamflow, Harney Basin, Southeastern Oregon

The supplemental data presented here contain a macro-driven Microsoft Excel workbook (Office 365 format) that was developed to simultaneously balance streamflow with precipitation distributions in the Harney Basin for streamgaged and ungaged upland watersheds and other upland areas. The workbook allows for as many as five precipitation ranges to be manually specified. Precipitation for the area within each range is summed by watershed or ungaged area and multiplied by a fitted coefficient to estimate precipitation-derived streamflow.

Estrogen equivalents of surface water in Pennsylvania, 2012-2017

The data were gathered as part of a long-term, seasonal assessment of estrogenicity in selected locations within Pennsylvania from 2012-2017.  Data were collected over this time frame to determine seasonal and annual changes in surface water estrogenicity.Estrogen is reported as estrogen equivalents (EEQ) as determined by a bioluminescent yeast estrogen screen.  A total of 193 grab water samples were collected during this time of which 41% had EEQ above the limit of detection. The maximum estrogen equivalents (EEQ) measured was 5.44 ng EEQ/ L, while the median concentration was 0.44 ng/L. POCIS samplers were deployed at a number of sites to determine time-weighted estrogenicity between 2014 and 2017. A total of 150 POCIS samples were deployed over this time of which 77% had EEQ above the limit of detection.. The maximum estrogen equivalents (EEQ) measured was 12 ng EEQ/ POCIS.

Soil-Water-Balance (SWB) model archive used to simulate water budget components in Pennsylvania and Maryland 2000-2020

This model archive documents the Soil-Water-Balance (SWB) model used to simulate potential recharge for portions of Pennsylvania and Maryland from 2000 to 2021.  The Pennsylvania and Maryland SWB model was used to create output at a 250 meter grid scale.  Model parameters were adjusted using baseflow estimates from 36 reference watersheds varying in area from 0.37 to 817 square miles.  The simulations were used to create 21-year grids of annual potential recharge and evapotranspiration, and the sensitivity of the model to parameter adjustments. The model archive includes all the files used in the sensitivity model runs, which are described in the accompanying Scientific Investigations Report 2022-5054.  The directory structure of the model archive contains all the files needed to document and run the model. The directories in the archive are presented each as a separate .zip file and include an "ancillary" directory, a "bin" directory, a "georef" directory, a "model directory, an "output" directory, and a "source" directory. There is a README file describing all the files and directories in the archive and information on how to run the model. Each primary folder also contains a README file describing the contents.

CE–QUAL–W2 water-quality models for Klamath Straits Drain recirculation scenarios, Klamath River, Oregon, 2006–15

A hydrodynamic, water-temperature, and water-quality model (CE-QUAL-W2; Wells, 2020) of the Link-Keno reach of the Klamath River (Oregon) was used for calendar years 2006–15 to run a series of base and recirculation scenarios. These model runs were implemented to test alternative scenarios for routing some of the Klamath Straits Drain discharge into Ady Canal. The model scenarios were configured for baseline conditions and three different sets of recirculation scenarios, including the maximum year-round recirculation without discharge limits (scenario 1), limited year-round recirculation fixed by the current pipe flow configuration from Klamath Straits Drain into Ady Canal (scenario 2), and limited seasonal recirculation (May-September), also fixed by the current pipe flow configuration (scenario 3). For calendar years 2012–15, a separate CE-QUAL-W2 model for the Klamath Straits Drain was used in lieu of the Klamath Straits Drain as a tributary directly into the Link-Keno reach of the Klamath River CE-QUAL-W2 model. Original calibration and simulation of the Klamath Straits Drain model was documented in Sullivan and Rounds (2018). Original calibration and simulation of the Link-Keno reach of the Klamath River was documented in Sullivan and others (2011). These recirculation scenarios will be used by the United States Bureau of Reclamation to better understand the effects of recirculating Klamath Straits Drain discharge into Ady Canal on constituent loads of total nitrogen, total phosphorus, and the 5-day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5).

Aeromagnetic Data of Alturas, California, and Surrounding Areas

This data release provides access to an aeromagnetic survey over a part of northeastern California, an area that includes the city of Alturas, California.  The survey extends across the Devils Garden part of the Modoc Plateau (west of the Warner Range) and westward to over Medicine Lake volcano.  The survey covers the Likely fault zone, an enigmatic northwest-striking set of structures with possible Quaternary activity, and extends south across the Madelaine Plains.  These data were acquired between September 24 and November 2, 2019, by EDCON-PRJ, Inc., working under contract to the U.S. Geological Survey.  The nominal flying height was based on a best fit, pre-planned, three-dimensional draped surface targeted at 305 m above terrain, subject to aircraft climb and descent limitations. Steep terrain in parts of the survey area required significant departures locally from the pre-planned drape surface (as much as 911 m), and therefore variable terrain clearance should be considered when modeling and interpreting these data.  Flight lines were spaced 800 m apart and directed east-west; tie lines were spaced 8000 m apart and directed north-south, except over the area of Medicine Lake volcano.  In this area flight lines were spaced 400 m apart with tie lines spaced 4000 m apart.  A total of 22,533 line-kilometers were acquired over an area of approximately 14,124 square kilometers.  The details of the Alturas aeromagnetic survey are described in the document Alturas_Tech_Report_508.pdf available for download in this data release.  This report was prepared by EDCON-PRJ, Inc., and has not been edited.

Gunnison sage-grouse habitat suitability surface for San Miguel satellite population (summer, patch): Colorado Parks and Wildlife critical habitat extent (southwestern Colorado)

The Gunnison sage-grouse (Centrocercus minimus) habitat suitability surface for San Miguel satellite population represented here reflects summer season at a patch scale context (30 m x 30 m pixel and radius window extents [radius] of 45 m, 120 m, 180 m, 270 m, 390 m, and 570 m). Habitat suitability estimated for areas constrained within the thresholded landscape model (containing 95% of use locations) developed for Colorado Parks and Wildlife critical habitat extent (southwestern Colorado).
We developed habitat selection models for Gunnison sage-grouse (Centrocercus minimus), a threatened species under the U.S. Endangered Species Act. We followed a management-centric modeling approach that sought to balance the need to evaluate the consistency of key habitat conditions and improvement actions across multiple, distinct populations, while allowing context-specific environmental variables and spatial scales to nuance selection responses. Models were developed for six isolated satellite populations (San Miguel, Crawford, Piñon Mesa, Dove Creek, Cerro Summit-Cimarron-Sims, and Poncha Pass) from use locations collected between 1991 and 2016 (see larger citation for map of population boundaries). For each population, models were developed at two life stages (breeding and summer) and at two hierarchical scales (landscape and patch). We used multi-scale and seasonal resource selection analyses to quantify relationships between environmental conditions and sites used by animals. These resource selection function models relied on spatial data describing habitat conditions at different spatial scales, where environmental conditions differ, and habitat selection occur at different spatial scales for different available resources.

Gunnison sage-grouse habitat suitability surface for San Miguel satellite population (summer, landscape): Colorado Parks and Wildlife critical habitat extent (southwestern Colorado)

The Gunnison sage-grouse (Centrocercus minimus) habitat suitability surface for San Miguel satellite population represented here reflects summer season at a landscape scale context (window extents [radius] of 1 km, 3 km, and 6.4 km). Habitat suitability estimated for Colorado Parks and Wildlife critical habitat extent (southwestern Colorado). The critical habitat defined by Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) is similar to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service critical habitat, but due to a lack of mapped urban features, we did not extrapolate models beyond the CPW boundary.
