This USGS data release presents data collected during surveys of nearshore bathymetry and beach topography from the Columbia River littoral cell, Washington and Oregon. Survey operations were conducted between July 14 and August 16, 2014 (USGS Field Activity Number 2014-631-FA) by a team of scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center, Washington State Department of Ecology, and Oregon State University. Nearshore bathymetry data were collected using four personal watercraft (PWCs), each equipped with single-beam echosounders and survey-grade global navigation satellite systems (GNSS). Topography data were collected by walking along survey lines with GNSS receivers mounted...

This USGS data release presents data collected during surveys of nearshore bathymetry and beach topography from the Columbia River littoral cell, Washington and Oregon. Survey operations were conducted between July 13 and August 11, 2015 (USGS Field Activity Number 2015-647-FA) by a team of scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center, Washington State Department of Ecology, and Oregon State University. Nearshore bathymetry data were collected using four personal watercraft (PWCs), each equipped with single-beam echosounders and survey-grade global navigation satellite systems (GNSS). Topography data were collected by walking along survey lines with GNSS receivers mounted...

This data release presents topographic survey data and a digital elevation model (DEM) of Oxbow Reservoir, in Placer County, California. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted a topographic survey of accessible regions of the reservoir sediment on 26 October 2022, when the reservoir was partially de-watered to allow repairs to the dam infrastructure following the Mosquito Fire. The survey was conducted to document baseline reservoir sediment elevation in Oxbow Reservoir immediately after the Mosquito Fire, prior to the first post-fire runoff of the 2022-2023 winter. During the survey, significant portions of the reservoir site remained inaccessible to surveyors due to the continued flow of the Middle Fork American...

This portion of the data release presents topographic survey data of portions of Oxbow Reservoir in Placer County, California. These data were collected on 26 October 2022, when the reservoir was partially de-watered to allow repairs to the dam infrastructure following the Mosquito Fire. Although the gates of the dam were open during this time, significant portions of the reservoir site remained inaccessible to surveyors due to the continued flow of the Middle Fork American River. Consequently, these data cover approximately 50 percent of the total surface area of the reservoir at full pool. The data were collected using two RTK GNSS backpack rovers which were referenced to a temporary GNSS base station occupying...

This data release presents beach topography and nearshore bathymetry data from repeated surveys performed by a team of scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey, Washington State Department of Ecology, and Oregon State University in the Columbia River littoral cell (CRLC), Washington and Oregon. The CRLC extends approximately 165 kilometers between Point Grenville (PG), Washington, and Tillamook Head (TH), Oregon (Figure 1A). The CRLC consists of four wide, gently sloping, beaches, or sub-cells, separated by the entrances of Grays Harbor, Willapa Bay, and the Columbia River. Areas were designated within a portion of each sub-cell and surveyed along a series of shore-perpendicular survey lines spaced at 100- to...

This portion of the USGS data release presents digital elevation models (DEMs) derived from bathymetric and topographic surveys conducted on the Elwha River delta in August 2022 (USGS Field Activity Number 2022-638-FA). Nearshore bathymetry data were collected using two personal watercraft (PWCs) and a kayak equipped with single-beam echosounders and survey-grade global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) receivers. Topographic data were collected on foot with survey-grade GNSS receivers mounted on backpacks. Positions of the survey platforms were referenced to a GNSS base station placed on a benchmark with known horizontal and vertical coordinates relative to the North American Datum of 1983 (CORS96 realization)...

Two dams on the Elwha River, Washington State, USA trapped over 20 million m3 of sediment, reducing downstream sediment fluxes and contributing to erosion of the river's coastal delta. The removal of the Elwha and Glines Canyon dams between 2011 and 2014 induced massive increases in river sediment supply and provided an unprecedented opportunity to examine the response of a delta system to changes in sediment supply. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) developed an integrated research program aimed at understanding the ecosystem responses following dam removal. The research program included repeated surveys of beach topography, nearshore bathymetry, and surface sediment grain size to quantify changes in delta morphology...

This portion of the data release presents a digital elevation model (DEM) of portions of Oxbow Reservoir in Placer County, California. The DEM was created using topographic survey data collected on 26 October 2022, when the reservoir was partially de-watered to allow repairs to the dam infrastructure following the Mosquito Fire. Although the gates of the dam were open during this time, significant portions of the reservoir site remained inaccessible to surveyors due to the continued flow of the Middle Fork American River. Consequently, this DEM covers approximately 50 percent of the total surface area of the reservoir at full pool. The raw topographic data for the DEM were collected using two RTK GNSS backpack rovers...
