Peak ground acceleration ground motion values for 50, 10, and 2 percent probability of exceedance in 50 years are converted to equivalent modified Mercalli intensity using the relationships of Worden and others (2012). Values are for NEHRP site class B/C with a VS30 = 760 m/s.

This data set contains maps and shapefiles of uniform-hazard ground motion values calculated for a grid of points with a spacing of 0.2° in latitude and longitude over the conterminous U.S and Alaska, and 0.02° over Hawaii, using the 2023 National Seismic Hazard Model. 2%, 5% and 10% in 50-year probability of exceedance values are shown for peak ground acceleration (PGA), and 0.2, 1, and 5 second spectral acceleration for VS30 = 760 and 260 m/s, representing the National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program site conditions B/C and D, respectively.

These data were released prior to the October 1, 2016 effective date for the USGS’s policy dictating the review, approval, and release of scientific data as referenced in USGS Survey Manual Chapter 502.8 Fundamental Science Practices: Review and Approval of Scientific Data for Release. These data present a ground-water inventory of existing geospatial data and other information needed to determine the extent and characteristics of the aquifers in the Tahoe Basin. Geospatial and other data include geologic maps and soil surveys of the entire basin and for specific watersheds within the basin at the best available scales; vegetation remote-sensing datasets; well information from various local, state, and federal...

1985 Gulf of Mexico Atlas abstract American oyster Crassostrea virginica Ostion americanoDescription Range: The American oyster, a bivalve mollusc of the family Ostreidae, is found in the western Atlantic from the Gulf of St. Lawrence to the Yucatan Peninsula. In the Gulf, this species occurs throughout estuaries, shallow nearshore waters, and on reefs located near river mouths. Habitat: Large populations of this benthic invertebrate are found in the large estuarine bays and sounds of the Gulf (with most concentrations found within 10-meter depths). Sedentary in character, this invertebrate attaches in clusters to shell reefs, firm mud/shell bottoms and other hard substrates. Feeding and Behavior: The American oyster...

The boundaries (polygons and their tables) of the zones of induced seismicity are provided as documentation for the 50-state update of the National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) of 2023. These zones are within the conterminous United States and have assigned durations to represent seismicity that is considered induced. Previous NSHMs also considered the role of induced seismicity (Petersen and others, 2018 and Petersen and others, 2017) which is a separate category from other anthropogenic sources considered in the seismicity catalogs used in the hazard models. For expanded explanations, see Llenos and others (2023) and the metadata which also contains documented references used in this study.

This data release contains data sets associated with the 2023 50-State National Seismic Hazard Model Update. The 2023 50-State National Seimsic Hazard Model (NSHM) Update includes an update to the NSHMs for the conterminous U.S (CONUS, last updated in 2018), Alaska (AK, last updated in 2007), and Hawaii (last updated in 2001). Data sets include inputs like seismicity catalogs used as input to the smoothed seismicity model and updated induced seismicity zone polygons in the central and eastern U.S., as well as outputs like hazard curves and uniform-hazard ground motion values. Plots of selected data sets are also included. The data sets provided here are primarily for the 2023 CONUS NHSM and 2023 AK NSHM. Additional...

The 2023 National Seismic Hazard Model for the conterminous United States considers the full catalog and several declustered catalogs in calculating earthquake rates and seismic hazard. These catalogs were declustered using the Reasenberg and nearest neighbor methods. All of these catalogs are included here and are described in more detail in the paper by Llenos and others (2023).

This data set represents probabilisitic seismic hazard curves and uniform-hazard ground motion values calculated for a grid of points with a spacing of 0.2 degrees in latitude and longitude over the conterminous U.S. (CONUS) and Alaska (AK) using the 2023 National Seismic Hazard Model. CONUS The data sets includes (1) probabilistic seismic hazard curves (full and truncated) for two peak parameters, peak ground velocity (PGV) and peak ground acceleration (PGA), and pseudo-spectral accelerations at 21 oscillator periods between 0.01 and 10s, and (2) uniform-hazard ground motion values for 2, 5, and 10% in 50 years probability of exceedance (PE) (corresponding to 2,475, 975, and 475-year return periods, respectively)...

This data set represents multiple period response spectra (MPRS) results for 160 test sites for the conterminous U.S (CONUS) using the 2023 National Seismic Hazard Model. The data sets includes (1) probabilistic seismic hazard curves (full and truncated) for peak ground velocity (PGV), peak ground acceleration (PGA), and 21 spectra periods from 0.01 to 10 seconds spectra acceleration and (2) uniform-hazard ground motion values for 2, 5, and 10% in 50 years probability of exceedance (PE) (corresponding to 2,475, 975, and 475-year return periods, respectively) and 1% in 100 year PE (corresponding to a 10,000-year return period) for each of the 160 test sites. Results are provided for VS30 = 1500, 1080, 760, 530, 365,...

The 2023 Update of the U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model defines the potential for earthquake ground shaking for various probability levels across the United States and is applied in seismic provisions of building codes, insurance rate structures, risk assessments, and other public policy. The updated model represents an assessment of the best available science in earthquake hazards and incorporates new findings on earthquake ground shaking, seismicity, and long-period amplification over deep sedimentary basins. The new model represents an update of the seismic hazard model; previous versions were developed in 1996, 2002, 2008, 2014, and 2018. This data set represents the chance of potentially damaging ground shaking...
