This data release includes field spectra collected from a boat during a tracer experiment performed on the Missouri River near Lexington, Missouri, on May 11, 2024. One of the primary goals of this study was to assess the feasibility of inferring concentrations of a visible dye (Rhodamine WT) in a large, highly turbid natural river channel using data from a Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS)-based hyperspectral imaging system. Previous research on remote sensing of tracer dye concentrations demonstrated the ability to obtain moderately precise concentration estimates from standard red-green-blue (RGB) video and orthophotos and this experiment allowed us to evaluate the hypothesis that more detailed spectral information...

To advance the USGS 3D National Topography Model (3DNTM) including the next generation of the 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) and the 3D Hydrography Program, USGS is producing a new one-meter resolution seamless digital elevation model (DEM) product. The project is funded by the Inflation Reduction Act. This dataset is a 1-m seamless DEM prototype that was created from several different 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) Original Product Resolution source DEMs. The DEM covers the spatial extent of the Lower Androscoggin River Watershed 8-digit hydrologic unit (01040002), as delineated in the USGS Watershed Boundary Dataset. This prototype data is being released as a precursor to the new product that will be seamless across...

Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) maps provide a concise summary of coastal resources that are at risk if an oil or chemical spill occurs nearby. Examples of at-risk resources include biological resources (such as shorebirds and mussel beds), sensitive shorelines (such as marshes and coastal wetlands), and human-use resources (such as public beaches and parks, as well as areas that could be used for access and staging in a spill response). Environmental Sensitivity Index maps are used by incident response managers from a wide range of federal and state agencies to guide decisions about where and how to prioritize emergency response and restoration activities after an oil or chemical spill. The National Oceanic...

Recent catastrophic droughts and wildfires have killed almost 20% of mature giant sequoia trees across California, and it is uncertain whether natural seedling regeneration will be enough to restore these forests, especially in severely burned areas. Researchers supported by this Southwest CASC project will assess whether soil conditions, such as moisture and soil microbial communities can increase sequoia seedling survival. Findings from this project will help land managers identify the most effective replanting strategies and determine which areas are more or less likely to support successful sequoia seedling regeneration. Ancient groves of giant sequoia trees inspire people all over the world. Recently, however,...

This study examines potential drivers of American kestrel (*Falco sparverius*; hereafter kestrel) population declines in North America and uses decision analysis to formally identify future research priorities that are most likely to result in corrective management actions. The study objectives are to (1) develop a continental-scale integrated population model to quantify the relative influence of survival and fecundity on population trends, (2) generate hypotheses relevant to causes of kestrel population declines and prioritize future monitoring and research activities as well as conservation actions, and (3) develop regional-scale models to test how specific drivers of decline may vary across the kestrel’s US...

This data release includes digital orthophotos acquired during a tracer experiment performed on the Missouri River near Lexington, Missouri, on May 11, 2024. The orthophotos were acquired from a fixed-wing crewed aircraft and are provided as background images. One of the primary goals of this study was to assess the feasibility of inferring concentrations of a visible dye (Rhodamine WT) in a large, highly turbid natural river channel using data from a Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS)-based hyperspectral imaging system. Previous research on remote sensing of tracer dye concentrations demonstrated the ability to obtain moderately precise concentration estimates from standard red-green-blue (RGB) video and orthophotos...

This dataset contains projections of shoreline change and uncertainty bands across California for future scenarios of sea-level rise (SLR). Projections were made using the Coastal Storm Modeling System - Coastal One-line Assimilated Simulation Tool (CoSMoS-COAST), a numerical model run in an ensemble forced with global-to-local nested wave models and assimilated with satellite-derived shoreline (SDS) observations across the state. Scenarios include 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200, 250, 300 and 500 centimeters (cm) of SLR by the year 2100. Output for SLR of 0 cm is also included, reflective of conditions in 2000.

Pinyon-juniper woodlands are important ecosystems in the western U.S. that provide numerous critical environmental, economic, and cultural benefits. For example, pinyon pines are a significant cultural resource for multiple Native American Tribes and provide necessary habitat for plants and wildlife (including at risk species, such as the pinyon-jay). Despite their importance, stress put on pinyon-juniper woodlands by wildfires and other interacting effects of climate change are causing major population declines of these woodland trees. Such changes to pinyon-juniper woodlands lead to uncertainty for land managers on best practices for protecting these ecosystems from stand replacing fire (where most or all of...

Album caption: Pyroclastic-flow deposits atop Drift glacier. These two layers were deposited during different eruptive episodes. When domes collapsed down the North flank of Redoubt as hot, fast-moving avalanches of rock debris, or pyroclastic flows. Deposits in this view are about 2 m thick; other flow deposits were as much as 10 m thick. Gardner n May 24, 1990.
