Estimated Streamflow Using Satellite Data for Selected Rivers in Alaska 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...

However, conventional afforestation efforts typically require regular maintenance due to the persistent invasion of grasses in planted areas. In collaboration with Native Hawaiian Organizations, researchers supported by this Pacific Islands CASC project will test dense plantings of keystone species and intensive mulching, aiming to restore traditional agroforest ecosystems that support cultural practices and improve disaster mitigation.

A fundamental goal of most wildlife-based grazing programs is to foster a mosaic of patches that represent the broadest possible spectrum of habitat types that benefits different sagebrush- and grassland-associated birds in different parts of the landscape (for example, western meadowlarks, vesper sparrows, and thick-billed longspur in open, heavily grazed areas;...

Quantifying the response of avian species to conifer management will inform conservation delivery to ensure that agencies achieve sagebrush bird and habitat objectives while minimizing impacts on Pinyon Jays in the sagebrush/pinon-juniper woodland ecotone. The results of this project will address key science needs on Pinyon Jays and directly inform more effective conifer management throughout the eastern Great Basin.

To provide more insight into this contradiction, we propose to capitalize on long-term databases to evaluate how a key population driver nest survival for North American ducks has responded to system changes in the region including landscape and climatic factors.

Our investigation will quantify how bee communities respond to widespread threats to sagebrush-wildfire and invasive annual grasses-and provide foundational knowledge needed for undertaking informed management decisions to improve the resilience of the biome.

The focus of regional moment tensor analysis is to estimate the moment magnitude, faulting parameters and source depth of earthquakes that are too small to be recorded teleseismically. Thus they have the potential of extending the earthquake catalog to magnitudes less than about M4-4.5.

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...

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.

This overpopulation poses threats to rangeland ecosystems as the feral horses compete with native species and livestock for limited resources – which likely will become even more limited with climate change. Researchers supported by this Southwest CASC project will partner with tribal agencies to generate reliable population size estimates of feral horse populations. These estimates are essential for tribal agencies to create effective management plans to protect rangelands. Overabundant feral horse populations are a major concern on southwestern rangelands because of their tendency to degrade...

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)....
