Nearshore bathymetry of the Columbia River littoral cell, Washington and Oregon, 2015

This portion of the USGS data release presents bathymetry data collected during surveys performed in the Columbia River littoral cell, Washington and Oregon in 2015 (USGS Field Activity Number 2015-647-FA). Bathymetry data were collected using four personal watercraft (PWCs) equipped with single-beam sonar systems and global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receivers. The sonar systems consisted of an Odom Echotrac CV-100 single-beam echosounder and 200 kHz transducer with a 9 degree beam angle. Raw acoustic backscatter returns were digitized by the echosounder with a vertical resolution of 1.25 cm. Depths from the echosounders were computed using sound velocity profiles measured using a YSI CastAway CTD during the survey. Positioning of the survey vessels was determined at  5 to 10 Hz using Trimble R7 GNSS receivers. Output from the GNSS receivers and sonar systems were combined in real time on the PWC by a computer running HYPACK hydrographic survey software. Navigation information was displayed on a video monitor, allowing PWC operators to navigate along survey lines at speeds of 2 to 3 m/s. Survey-grade positions of the PWCs were achieved with a single-base station and differential post-processing. Positioning data from the GNSS receivers were post-processed using Waypoint Grafnav to apply differential corrections from a GNSS base station with known horizontal and vertical coordinates relative to the North American Datum of 1983. Orthometric elevations relative to the NAVD88 vertical datum were computed using National Geodetic Survey Geoid12a offsets. Bathymetric data were merged with post-processed positioning data and spurious soundings were removed using a custom Graphical User Interface (GUI) programmed with the computer program MATLAB. The average estimated vertical uncertainty of the bathymetric measurements is 10 cm. The final point data from the PWCs are provided in a comma-separated text file and are projected in cartesian coordinates using the Washington State Plane South, meters coordinate system.

Streamflow gain/loss in the Republican River Basin, Nebraska, April to May 1980

This arc and point data set contains streamflow-measurement sites and
reaches indicating streamflow gain or loss under base-flow conditions
along Republican River tributaries in Nebraska during April 28 to
May 1, 1980 (U.S. Geological Survey, 1981).  The streamflow measurements
were made to obtain data on ground-water/surface-water interaction.  Flow
was observed visually to be zero, was measured, or was estimated at 147 sites.
The measurements were made on the main stem of the Republican River and all
flowing tributaries that enter the Republican River between Muddy Creek in
western Hitchcock County and Deer Creek in western Furnas County, Nebraska.
Tributaries were followed upstream until the first road crossing where zero
flow was encountered. For selected streams, points of zero flow upstream of the
first zero flow site also were checked.
Streamflow gain or loss for each stream reach was calculated by
subtracting the streamflow values measured at the upstream end of
the reach and values for contributing tributaries from the
downstream value.  The data obtained reflected base-flow conditions
suitable for estimating streamflow gains and losses for
stream reaches between sites.
This digital data set was created by manually splitting the lines
from a 1:250,000 hydrography data set (Soenksen and others, 1999) at
every streamflow measurement site.  Each set of stream segments between
measurement sites was assigned a unique reach number.

Percent of Agriculture Land Subject to Select National Resource Inventory Conservation Practices, 2000-2012

This metadata record describes 26 30-meter raster data sets that estimate the percent of agricultural land that may be subject to  select conservation practices for each year during the period 2000-2012. The data were derived from U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) National Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) National Resource Inventory (NRI). One set of rasters (denoted by the ICP prefix) represents an estimate of the percent of agricultural land potentially subject to Alley Cropping, Contour Buffer Strips, Contour Farming, Contour Orchard/Other Fruit Area, Cross Wind Trap Strips, Field Border, Filter Strip, Grassed Waterway, Hedgerow Planting, Herbaceous Wind Barriers, Irrigation System, Tailwater Recovery, Riparian Forest Buffer, Stripcroppings, Terrace, Tree/Shrub Establishment, and Windbreak/Shelterbelt Establishment practices. The other set (denoted by the WCP prefix) represents the estimated percent of agricultural land potentially subject to Bedding, Hillside Ditch, Surface Drainage, Field Ditch, and Water and Sediment Control Basin practices. These grouped practices were then processed into 26 separate national 30-meter rasters (16 years x 2 practice types) as described in the process steps of this metadata record. These conservation practice data are estimated areas protected by a conservation practice and not an actual conservation practice footprint. Summaries that could possibly reveal the location and/or identity of an NRI sample site may not be published.

Spatial Predictions of Mojave Desert Tortoise, Sonoran Desert Tortoise and Pooled Species Habitat Suitability for present-day (1950 – 2000 yr)

This dataset provides spatial predictions of habitat suitability for Gopherus agassizii (Agassiz’s desert tortoise), Gopherus morafkai (Morafka’s desert tortoise) and a pooled-species model under current conditions (1950 – 2000 yr). The raster layers contained here accompany the manuscript Inman et al. 2019 and were used to evaluate subtle ecological niche differences between Gopherus agassizii and Gopherus morafkai, and identify local species-environment relationships. Spatial predictions of habitat suitability were created using MaxEnt version 3.4.0 (Phillips et al., 2006), a widely-used software for SDM in presence-background frameworks. Detailed methods are provided in Inman et al. 2019.

Potential suitable habitat for White-margined beardtongue (Penstemon albomarginatus) in the California desert

Here we present the map of potential suitable habitat for White-margined beardtongue (Penstemon albomarginatus). The data indicate both how many models predicted each location to be potentially suitable for the species and the average standardized habitat suitability score for each location.Data are presented at a spatial resolution of 10 m pixels, which was required to harmonize the original model inputs. However, maps of suitable habitat should be used at a resolution no smaller than 360 m (i.e., 36 pixels x 36 pixels), which corresponds with the resolution of the coarsest model input. These data are intended to be used only to target future plant surveys in areas where new occurrences are most likely to benefit future habitat modelling efforts. Complete methods and other additional information are provided in the article associated with this data release (Reese and others, 2019).
