These data contain ambrosia beetle (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) trapping data using two different repellents in two different trials at Waiākea Forest Reserve. Beetles were trapped using cross vane panel traps equipped with 50:50 Ethanol:Methanol lures in the first trial and with black panel multi-traps equipped with 100% Ethanol lures in the second trial. Both trials tested the ability of two different beetle repellents, one verbenone formulation, and one verbnone + methyl salicylate, to deter beetle catch.

The dataset documents results from particle size analysis conducted on a suite of sediment samples from the VA-Clarke-03 core, Cherry Hill quadrangle, Dinwiddie county, Virginia [36.931926, -77.566802]. The 44-foot-long core was collected on 05/16/2023 using the North Carolina Geological Survey Geoprobe. The core was collected from sands and gravels of the uppermost coastal plain that host the Old Hickory heavy mineral deposit. Because host sediments are non-fossiliferous, there is little consensus as to their age, stratigraphic position, or nomenclature. Current mapping assigns host sands and gravels to two units in the upper part of the Pliocene to Pleistocene Chesapeake Group. In the lab, the core was analyzed...
