These data represent trapping effort and captures of deer mice at Point Reyes National Seashore, Marin County, California. Deer mice were captured and marked with ear tags to allow identification of individuals. The location of captures can be used in a spatially explicit capture recapture model to estimate density of mice and how mouse density varies by site and habitat type.

This dataset provides estimated Remote Sensing Streamflow (RSQ) data at selected river reaches in Alaska. Reach-specific relations between satellite-derived water-surface elevation data and dynamic surface water extent data were used with a modified form of the Manning's streamflow equation to estimate streamflows. The streamflow estimates were used to create rating tables that define the relation between discharge and satellite-observed water-surface elevation. The streamflow estimates in the gage_data.csv files are derived from these rating tables, interpolated using a polynomial regression equation. Data are organized in child items named for each river reach. Reach-specific details are provided in a README file...

This dynamic data release presents an aquatic reflectance product with 20-meter spatial resolution derived from Sentinel-2 satellite imagery for the conterminous United States using the Atmospheric Correction for OLI “lite” (ACOLITE). Aquatic reflectance, noted Rhow in ACOLITE documentation, is defined here as unitless water-leaving radiance reflectance and represents the ratio of water-leaving radiance (units of watts per square meter per steradian per nanometer) to downwelling irradiance (units of watts per square meter per nanometer) multiplied by π. This is also known as remote sensing reflectance (units of per steradian) multiplied by π. These data are intended for use in remote sensing of water color and differ...

This data release makes available the data used to test a method for remote sensing of river discharge based on critical flow theory. In rivers where flow conditions are near critical and well-defined standing waves are present, simple measurements of the wavelengths of the standing waves and the width of the channel made using readily available image data can be used to infer river discharge. This approach could provide an efficient, non-contact method of estimating streamflow in certain rivers. Sites near established USGS gaging stations with standing waves (also known as undular hydraulic jumps) were identified by examining images within Google Earth Pro (https://www.google.com/earth/about/versions/#earth-pro)....

Human alteration of waterways has impacted the minimum and maximum streamflow in more than 86% of monitored streams nationally and may be the primary cause for ecological impairment in river and stream ecosystems. Restoration of freshwater inflows can positively affect shellfish, fisheries, habitat, and water quality in streams, rivers, and estuaries. Increasingly, state and local decision makers and Federal agencies are turning their attention to the restoration of flows as part of a holistic approach to restoring water quality and habitat and protecting and replenishing living coastal and marine resources and the livelihoods that depend on them. In 2017, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Lower Mississippi-Gulf...

The Integrated Water Availability Assessment uses an ensemble of outputs from two hydrologic models to assess water supply conditions. Results from the two models, the National Hydrologic Model Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System (NHM-PRMS) and Weather Research and Forecasting model hydrologic modeling system (WRF-Hydro) were averaged to create a single model ensemble. A unique instance of each model was developed specifically for this application (see the following data releases listed in the related external resources below: Sampson et al., 2024; Foks et al., 2025; Foks et al., 2024a-c). Each model was run at its native spatiotemporal resolution and converted to the subwatershed (12-digit hydrologic unit code;...

This data release contains the model inputs, outputs, and source code (written in R) for a redeveloped PRObability of Streamflow PERmanence (PROSPER) model (version 2.1) that had previously been developed for the Pacific Northwest Region (PROSPER_PNW_2), and a raster data set which shows where influential predictor values were outside the range of calibration data. The PROSPER-PNW version 2.1 model, a random forest model, was redeveloped in the Ranger R package using all the original model inputs consistent with PROSPER_PNW_2 to produce annual streamflow permanence probabilities for calendar years 2004-2016 at a 30-meter stream grid resolution that approximately corresponds to flowlines consistent with the National...

This data release provides satellite images used to test a method for inferring image acquisition time from shadow orientation. For many applications, such as linking remotely sensed data to streamflow recorded at a gaging station, knowing the time an image is acquired is important, but such metadata often is not available. The sundial method is a simple means of inferring image acquisition time from shadow orientation. Images with known acquisition times are used to test the approach. The file SundialDataRelease.csv contains image metadata, shadow measurements, and inferred image acquisition times based on the sundial method. The difference between the known acquisition times of the satellite images and those inferred...

This data release contains displacement and pore-water pressure data from a field experiment performed November 14, 2003, at Mount Kaba-san, Japan. This experiment generated a shallow landslide, induced by water infiltration from overhead sprinkling, that mobilized into a debris flow. More information about this experiment can be found in Ochiai and others (2004). Extensometer data recorded the ground-surface locations (displacement) and pressure transducers recorded dynamic pore-water pressures within the hillslope leading up to and through rapid failure. Data were recorded at a 100-Hz sampling frequency on a National Instruments data-acquisition system. The accompanying cross-sectional diagram (Japan_exp_cross-section.png)...
