CoSMoS (Coastal Storm Modeling System) Central California v3.1 water-level projections: 20-year storm in Monterey County

This data contains model-derived total water elevation (in meters) for the sea-level rise (SLR) and storm condition indicated.  
The Coastal Storm Modeling System (CoSMoS) makes detailed predictions (meter-scale) over large geographic scales (100s of kilometers) of storm-induced coastal flooding and erosion for both current and future sea-level rise (SLR) scenarios. Projections for CoSMoS v3.1 in Central California include flood-hazard information for the coast from Pt. Conception to the Golden Gate. Outputs include SLR scenarios of 0.0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, and 5.0 meters; storm scenarios include background conditions (astronomic spring tide and average atmospheric conditions) and simulated 1-year/20-year/100-year return interval coastal storms. Methods and processes used in Central California are replicated from and described in O'Neill and others (2018). Please read metadata and inspect output carefully. Data are complete for the information presented.
Due to file size constraints, data are available in two parts: part 1 includes SLR conditions 0 - 1.5 m, and part 2 includes SLR conditions 2.0 - 5.0 m.

LANDFIRE Remap Forest Canopy Bulk Density (CBD) Micronesia

LANDFIRE’s (LF) Remap Canopy Bulk Density (CBD) describes the mass of available canopy fuel per unit canopy volume that would burn in a crown fire. A spatially explicit map of CBD supplies information used in fire behavior models to determine the spread characteristics of crown fires across the landscape. The CBD mapping process derives field referenced estimates of canopy characteristics through LF Reference Database (LFRDB) plot analysis. Utilizing the LFRDB plots, field referenced CBD values are computed for each plot with the canopy fuel estimation software FuelCalc. In FuelCalc, for tree species that have no crown biomass, an equation for a species with a similar genus is used as a substitute. Species widely considered to be resistant to fire are excluded, for example, Acer and Populus spp. are excluded from the canopy fuel profile because these species are considered relatively inflammable and therefore unavailable. 
CBD has a series of post-processing techniques and logic checks ensuring it is relevant in the context of other fuel products and fire behavior predictions. All non-forest values and non-burnable types such as urban, barren, snow and ice, and agriculture are coded as 0. Some stands dominated by broadleaf species which typically do not permit initiation of crown fire (e.g. Populus spp.) are coded with a CBD of 0.01 kg m-3.  In some instances, LF Remap assumes the potential burnable biomass in the tree canopy has been accounted for in the surface fuel model. For example, young or short conifer stands where the trees are represented by a shrub type fuel model will not have canopy characteristics. 
LF Remap Annual Disturbance products are incorporated into CBD to provide informed changes by disturbance type, severity, and time since disturbance (TSD). Annual Disturbance products provide a pre-disturbance scenario represented by LF Remap existing vegetation products. Reporting of the pre-disturbance scenario helps to calculate CBD, with information about vegetation type, cover, and height impacted by a disturbance. With the use of Annual Disturbance products, CBD also has capable fuels functionality. Capable fuels calculate TSD assignments for disturbed areas using an "effective year." For example, year 2020 fuels may be calculated for the year 2020. the new process considers all the existing disturbances included in LF Remap and adjusts the TSD for these to the effective year (2020 in the example), making the products "2020 capable fuels." More information about capable fuels can be found at https://www.landfire.gov/lf_remap.php.

Multibeam Echosounder, Reson T-20P tracklines, USGS field activity 2017-003-FA, Mississippi River Delta front offshore of southeastern Louisiana (Esri polyline shapefile, GCS WGS 84)

High resolution bathymetric, sea-floor backscatter, and seismic-reflection data were collected offshore of southeastern Louisiana aboard the research vessel Point Sur on May 19-26, 2017, in an effort to characterize mudflow hazards on the Mississippi River Delta front. As the initial field program of a research cooperative between the U.S. Geological Survey, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, and other Federal and academic partners, the primary objective of this cruise was to assess the suitability of sea-floor mapping and shallow subsurface imaging tools in the challenging environmental conditions found across delta fronts (for example, variably distributed water column stratification and widespread biogenic gas in the shallow subsurface). Approximately 675 kilometers (km) of multibeam bathymetry and backscatter data, 420 km of towed chirp data, and 550 km of multichannel seismic data were collected. Varied mudflow (gully, lobe), prodelta morphologies, and structural features were imaged in selected survey areas from Pass a Loutre to Southwest Pass.

Reporting and detection limits for analyses of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in quality-control samples and in groundwater samples from the Great Miami buried-valley aquifer, southwestern Ohio, 2019–20

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Miami Conservancy District, Dayton, Ohio, in 2019 and 2020 investigated concentrations of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in groundwater from the Great Miami buried-valley aquifer (GM-BVA) of southwestern Ohio. Data in this release include reporting limits and detection limits from PFAS analyses of groundwater and quality-control samples collected or prepared by this study, including sequential replicate samples of groundwater, equipment blanks and source-solution blanks prepared before or during groundwater sampling. The 23 wells used for sampling were identified and sampled previously by the USGS National Water-Quality Assessment Program to assess the occurrence of a variety of inorganic and organic contaminants in the GM-BVA. Wells where groundwater was sampled and quality-control samples were prepared were from parts of the GM-BVA in Butler, Champaign, Clark, Greene, Hamilton, Miami, Montgomery, Shelby and Warren Counties within the Great Miami River, Little Miami River, and Whitewater River Basins. Groundwater and quality-control samples were analyzed for PFAS using different adaptations of the EPA 537.1 method at a contract laboratory using one proprietary adaptation (method 1; Bureau Veritas, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada) and at a different contract laboratory using a slightly different proprietary adaptation (method 2; SGS North America Inc., Orlando, Florida. The groundwater sampling and analyses were done to inform the public and area stakeholders about concentrations of PFAS compounds in the GM-BVA.

Seasonal Future Prescribed Burn Windows for the Southeast United States - September-November 2010-2099 RCP 8.5

Prescribed burning is a critical tool for managing wildfire risks and meeting ecological objectives, but its safe and effective application requires that specific meteorological criteria are met. This dataset contains results from a study examining the potential impacts of projected climatic change on prescribed burning in the southeastern United States. A set of burn window criteria (suitable weather conditions within which burning may occur based on maximum daily temperature, daily average relative humidity, and daily average wind speed), were applied to projections from an ensemble of Global Climate Models (GCM) under two greenhouse gas emission scenarios, as well as past observations for comparison. Data are provided as decadal output for observed conditions, and for individual GCM results for the historical climate scenario and the two future climate scenarios are provided. In addition, summary statistics (e.g., multi-model mean, and for selected quantiles) are provided for the GCM ensemble as a whole by decade.

U-Pb Isotopic Data and Ages of Titanite and Detrital Zircon from Selected Rocks from the Western Alaska Range, Alaska

This dataset contains U-Pb isotopic data and associated ages of titanite from one sample and detrital zircon grains from 33 sedimentary and metasedimentary rocks collected from the western Alaska Range in south-central Alaska. The samples were collected as part of geological mapping and research conducted between 2010 and 2014 and funded by the Mineral Resources Program of the U.S. Geological Survey. Titanite was separated by Apatite to Zircon, Inc. (A2Z) and analyzed by USGS research staff at the Stanford-US Geological Survey (USGS) Sensitive High Resolution Ion Microprobe with Reverse-Geometry (SHRIMP-RG) at Stanford University. Detrital zircon grains from each of the 33 samples were separated and analyzed by Apatite to Zircon, Inc. (A2Z) and GeoSep Services (GSS) laboratories between 2011 and 2014, using laser-ablation-inductively-coupled-plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) techniques described in the supplemental file. The data tables report the concentration of the radioactive elements uranium (U) and thorium (Th) measured in each grain, corrected ratios of two isotopes of lead (207Pb and 206Pb) to two isotopes of uranium (235U and 238U), and the geologic age of each grain calculated from the isotopic ratios. The titanite data table also reports concentrations of selected trace elements measured in each grain.

Dam Metrics Representing Stream Fragmentation and Flow Alteration for the Conterminous United States Linked to the NHDPLUSV2.1

This USGS data release includes a comma separated value (CSV) file that contains 19 reach-based dam metrics representing stream fragmentation and flow alteration for nearly 2.3 million stream reaches in the conterminous United States. Dam metrics fall into three main categories: count and density, distance-based, and cumulative reservoir storage (described below).  These data were developed using spatially verified large dam locations (n=49,140) primarily from the National Anthropogenic Barrier Dataset (NABD) 2012 that were spatially linked to the National Hydrography Dataset Plus version 2.1 (NHDPlusV2.1). These dam metrics have been summarized using the unique identifier field native to the NHDPlusV2.1 (COMID) which can be used to join this table to spatial layers and data tables of the NHDPlusV2.1.  Non-fluvial features representing lakes and reservoirs in the NHDPlusV2.1 are included (~300,000 features), however coastlines are excluded.
