Flood Video Files for Firehose Camera, Chalk Cliffs, Colorado, USA, 2019

Chalk Cliffs, located 8 miles southwest of Buena Vista, CO, is one of the most active debris-flow areas in the state (U.S. Geological Survey). This "Child item" page includes videos of floods captured by one of the high-definition cameras at Chalk Cliffs. This camera was placed at the Firehose Station which is located on the perimeter of the study area at the base of the cliffs and was used to monitor the impacts of cascading water runoff during rainstorms on loose sediment at the cliff base. The Firehose station was also used to constrain the sediment concentration of flows impacting sediment at the base of the cliff.  It was equipped with a rain gage and video camera to record flow characteristics. See figure “station_and_camera_locations.png” for the location of the cameras and stations at Chalk Cliffs. 
Camera video recording is triggered when the rainfall intensity exceeds a threshold (see Michel et al., 2019). Video files for the camera were downloaded manually during site visits. More detailed information about the camera and settings used can be found in the metadata file under “Process steps” in “Data quality information.”

Copper-based control: zebra mussel settlement and non-target impacts data

The goal of this study was to complete a comprehensive evaluation of a low-dose copper treatment for zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha Pallas 1771) suppression. The treatment objective was to maintain an average copper concentration of 60 µg/L in waters above the thermocline for 10 consecutive days. The study was conducted in Lake Minnetonka (Hennepin County, Minnesota) and the copper treatment was applied to St. Albans Bay (66.3-ha). Robinson Bay (37.2-ha) was used as an untreated control reference site. Five locations were identified as sampling sites throughout each bay and marked with a buoy. Test animals were held, and samples were collected in the vicinity of these sampling buoys before, during, and after treatment.

Great Lakes Coastal Wetland Restoration Assessment (GLCWRA) Green Bay, U.S.: Dikes

This dataset is part of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Great Lakes Coastal Wetland Restoration Assessment (GLCWRA) initiative. These data represent the location of dikes within the Green Bay Restoration Assessment (GBRA) study area. An ArcGIS model (Python script) identified dikes as having a difference in elevation above a certain threshold. If the elevation difference was below a certain threshold, the area was not considered a dike. However, if the difference in elevation between two points was significantly high, then the area was marked as a dike. Areas continuous with each other were considered part of the same dike. Data underwent quality control (QC) procedures by having Subject Matter Experts and those familiar with the area examine the data output, comparing the proposed dike locations to aerial imagery, flowline data, and the Digital Elevation Model (DEM). Dikes that appeared to be false positives were deleted from the dataset. Please refer to the process steps and https://glcwra.wim.usgs.gov/ for further explanation on the methods.
The GLCWRA initiative identifies coastal wetland areas that have the greatest habitat restoration potential. The data model uses seven parameters to identify and rank wetland restoration areas, resulting in a composite index raster that can be used by ecological managers and planners to assist with the selection of wetland restoration sites.
The parameters are 
Parameter 0: Mask
Parameter 1: Hydroperiod
Parameter 2: Wetland Soils
Parameter 3: Flowlines
Parameter 4: Conservation and Recreation Lands
Parameter 5: Impervious Surfaces
Parameter 6: Land Use (represents developed areas without impervious surfaces but high societal value)
The ancillary data include dikes, degree flowlines, study area and culverts. These data layers are put through an ecological model, which results in a composite restoration index of ranked restoration areas.

Geologic outcrop and subcrop type within the inner shelf of Long Bay (Polygon shapefile)

In 1999, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in partnership with the South Carolina Sea Grant Consortium, began a study to investigate processes affecting shoreline change along the northern coast of South Carolina, focusing on the Grand Strand region. Previous work along the U.S. Atlantic coast shows that the structure and composition of older geologic strata located seaward of the coast heavily influences the coastal behavior of areas with limited sediment supply, such as the Grand Strand. By defining this geologic framework and identifying the transport pathways and sinks of sediment, geoscientists are developing conceptual models of the present-day physical processes shaping the South Carolina coast. The primary objectives of this research effort are: 1) to provide a regional synthesis of the shallow geologic framework underlying the coastal upland, shoreface and inner continental shelf, and define its role in coastal evolution and modern beach behavior; 2) to identify and model the physical processes affecting coastal ocean circulation and sediment transport, and to define their role in shaping the modern shoreline; and 3) to identify sediment sources and transport pathways; leading to construction of a regional sediment budget.

Geotagged Low-Altitude Aerial Imagery From Unmanned Aerial Systems Flights Over Town Neck Beach, in Sandwich, Massachusetts, on January 25, 2017

Low-altitude (80-100 meters above ground level) digital images of Town Neck Beach in Sandwich, Massachusetts, were obtained from a camera mounted on a small unmanned aerial system (UAS; also known as a drone). Imagery was collected at close to low tide on seven days to observe changes in beach and dune morphology. The images were geolocated by using the single-frequency geographic positioning system aboard the UAS. Ground control points (GCPs) were established by using temporary targets on the ground, which were located by using a real-time kinematic global navigation satellite system (RTK-GNSS) base station and rovers. The GCPs can be used as constraints during photogrammetric processing. Transect points were collected by using the same RTK-GNSS system; these can be used to evaluate photogrammetric products. This data release includes georeferenced images, image-location files, GCPs, and transect points. Collection of these data was supported by the USGS Coastal and Marine Geology Program and were conducted under USGS field activity numbers 2017-005-FA, 2017-008-FA, 2017-010-FA, 2017-014-FA, 2017-027-FA, 2017-029-FA, and 2017-050-FA.

Vineyard and Nantucket Sounds, southern coast of Cape Cod including Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket: continuous bathymetry and topography terrain model of the Massachusetts coastal zone and continental shelf, (32-bit GeoTIFF, UTM 19 NAD 83, NAVD 88 vertical datum).

Integrated terrain models covering 16,357 square kilometers of the Massachusetts coastal zone and offshore waters were built to provide a continuous elevation and bathymetry terrain model for ocean planning purposes. The area is divided into the following four geographical areas to reduce file size and facilitate publishing: Massachusetts Bay from the Massachusetts-New Hampshire border south to Provincetown and Scituate and east to Stellwagen Bank; Cape Cod Bay from Provincetown to Scituate and south to Hyannis; Buzzards Bay from the Cape Cod Canal southwest to the State border including the Elizabeth Islands and extending north to Fall River and Mount Hope Bay; and Nantucket and Vineyard Sounds, from Hyannis south to the border of the Massachusetts Coastal zone approximately 8 kilometers south of Nantucket. A Triangulated Irregular Network was created from public-domain bathymetric and LiDAR data using the ArcGIS terrain-model framework and then interpolated into a 32-bit GeoTiff of 10 meter resolution.  The grids for each of the four geographical areas are referenced to the Universal Transverse Mercator, Zone 19, North American Datum of 1983 coordinate system, and the North American Vertical Datum of 1988. A polygon shapefile recording the source datasets accompanies each of the four grids.

Evidence for strain induced graphitization across a ductile fault zone

A suite of slate samples collected along a 2 km transect crossing the Lishan Fault in central Taiwan were evaluated to assess the role of ductile strain energy in natural graphitization at greenschist facies metamorphic conditions. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) imaging documents phyllosilicate and quartz replacement textures consistent cleavage development via dissolution-precipitation processes that increase in intensity from east to west. X-ray diffraction data reveal an east-to-west linear decrease in the full-width-at-half-maximum (FWHM) values of the 004 muscovite peaks and shifts towards higher 2θ (lower d) values.  Rietveld refinements required two distinct muscovite populations and muscovite microstrain to account for the muscovite peak variability. Except for the westernmost sample, isothermal conditions were verified with calcite-dolomite geothermometry results. Finally, Raman spectroscopic results including D1-FWHM, G-FWHM, Raman band separation (RBS), and a lesser-known vibrational mode B2g-FWHM, showed robust linear trends across the sampling transect. However, the G-FWHM parameter showed a trend opposite of that expected from thermally driven graphitization.

Great Lakes Restoration Initiative's Terrestrial Habitats &amp; Connectivity Work Group's Pilot Area's Post-Fiscal Year 2023 Open Habitat Connectivity

This dataset is the fourth installment of a yearly connectivity update for open habitat within the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative's (GLRI) Terrestrial Habitats &amp; Connectivity (TH&amp;C) work group's Pilot Area. The Pilot Area is a region of the northern Great Lakes Basin between Ashland, WI and the Keweenaw Peninsula and is bounded by Lake Superior in the north and the basin boundary in the south, including a 70 km buffer. Each year the TH&amp;C selects project proposals for funding within the pilot area. These proposals involve either restoration, research, or land acquisition aimed at improving or increasing open connectivity in this area. The intended purpose of each year’s update is to understand the effects of funded projects on the ground work and help inform the location and purpose of future projects proposals. The 2023 open habitat connectivity maps serve as a fourth time step for comparison for each fiscal year from pre 2021 into the future.  
To create the post FY23 installment of GLRI's Terrestrial Habitats &amp; Connectivity work group's pilot area yearly connectivity maps, we identified the geospatial locations where restoration work benefitting open habitats was completed throughout FY22. These locations were then assigned the lowest resistance value. Then using the open habitat resistance layer from Great Lakes Restoration Initiative's Terrestrial Habitats and Connectivity Work group's Pilot Area's post-fiscal year 2022 we overwrote the post FY22 resistance values with the resistance values assigned to the FY23 locations where work was done. This analysis produced two connectivity maps: a cumulative current map and a normalized current map. The cumulative current map shows where potential movement pathways between open habitat are located within the pilot area, while the normalized current map shows where obstructed movement, diffuse movement, and channelized movement occurs within the pilot area. These maps provide important information on how restoration efforts in the pilot area from both FY21, FY22, and FY23 are affecting open habitat connectivity.
