Saint Croix National Scenic Riverway (SACN): Osceola Boat Landing 2019 Benthic and Bathymetry Data In 2019 the National Park Service began preparing for the relocation and upgrade of the Osceola (WI) boat ramp in the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway. Prior to construction, hydrographic/topographic surveys and benthic maps of the river bottom were desired to mitigate potential impacts to mussels or benthic habitat. Multibeam Echosounder Systems produce high-resolution bathymetry and backscatter data that can be used to obtain information about the sediment composition and physical properties of the riverbed. A suite of hydroacoustic products (e.g., bathymetry, topobathy, backscatter mosaic, measured river current velocities (ADCP), sidescan mosaic, and underwater images (ground truthing)) were combined to map... Tags: USGS Science Data Catalog (SDC) Mississippi National River and Recreation Area (MISS): Sonar Data Mapping to Assess Native Mussel Habitat The National Park Service (NPS) partnered with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to collect hydroacoustic data of the Mississippi River for the development of high-resolution bathymetry and sidescan imagery. The combined datasets will provide key components to characterizing benthic habitat. These information needs were highly desired by the NPS to more accurately assess environmental factors that influence native mussel distribution. The project was funded by the Legislative-Citizen Commission on Minnesota Resources (LCCMR) Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund (ENRTF), to help maintain and enhance Minnesota’s environment and natural resources. These data are part of a larger benthic mapping project to... Categories: Data Release - In Progress Mississippi National River and Recreation Area, Substrate Characterization of the Mississippi River near Hidden Falls, MN, 2019 Hydroacoustic (sonar) data were collected for the Mississippi, St. Croix, and Minnesota Rivers for the development of high-resolution bathymetry and sidescan imagery. Small areas containing priority mussel habitat had additional collection efforts to map water velocities and bottom composition. Combining these data in a GIS can provide key components to characterizing physical benthic habitat for native mussels in a riverine environment.

Slope is the gradient, or rate of maximum change in elevation, and is derived from the DEM. Slope measures will be used for investigating the use of hydroacoustic technologies for quantifying habitat for imperiled mussels Spectaclecase (Margaritifera monodonta) and Salamander (Simpsonaias ambigua) typically associated with rock structures (e.g., wing dams, revetment) in rivers. Slope is a driver of energy below the water and influences biotic diversity, distribution, and the functional traits of those biota. Slope is expressed in degrees; it calculates the maximum rate of change in value from...

Multibeam echosounders collect multibeam and sidescan simultaneously, providing high-resolution images of the riverbed. Sidescan images, in raster format, show the recorded intensity of acoustic signal returns from the riverbed. The acoustic data were collected from the East Pit of the Hanson Pits (where accessible) of the Marseilles reach June 27, 2018, and August 25, 2020.

High-resolution bathymetry data was surveyed using a multibeam sonar. The depth and characteristics of the riverbed are important parameters of habitat for benthic (bottom-dwelling) organisms, and are a fundamental parameter for riverine ecosystems. These datasets were desired by the NPS to help inform and mitigate potential impacts to mussels or benthic habitat.

This dataset contains reference locations that were obtained while collecting ground-truth information for geologic substrate. For statistical analysis, the locations were selected using random point sampling. The shapefile contains sample location coordinates, a general description of interpreted surficial sediment type, and an indication of mussel presence/absence in the attribute table.
