LiDAR scans were taken using a tripod mounted Riegl VZ-400 scanning LiDAR. The tripod was set up such that the scanner was between 1.5 and 2.5 m tall. The VZ-400 is a near infrared (1550 nm) scanner. Geometric control was achieved using a pair of Trimble RB GPS antennae, one mounted on the LiDAR scanner (rover) and the other setup as a base station. Before taking a LiDAR scan, the VZ-400 would use the GPSs to fix a real time kinematic (RTK) solution for the scanner’s location and then use that position (scan position) as a reference for LiDAR returns. Post processing was done using RIScan-Pro version 2 (scanner specific software). Also, in post-processing, overlapping areas of point clouds were merged and inaccuracies...

Album caption and index card: View north across homes partially buried by tephra in the eastern part of Vestmannaeyjar. The lava flow looms in the background. Gases that are moving through the tephra rise from the house on the right. The houses will eventually be exhumed and restored. Heimaey, Iceland volcanic eruption of 1973. Iceland. July 23, 1973. Published on page 8 in U.S. Geological Survey Government Information Product (gip), "Man against volcano: The eruption on Heimaey, Vestmann Islands, Iceland" 1977.

This data release presents the Yale stocks and flows database (YSTAFDB). Its data describe the use of 102 materials from the early 1800s to circa 2013 through anthropogenic cycles, their recycling and criticality properties, and on spatial scales ranging from suburbs to global. This data collection was previously scattered across multiple non-uniformly formatted files such as journal papers, reports, and unpublished spreadsheets. These data have been synthesized into YSTAFDB, which is presented as individual comma-separated text files and also in MySQL and PostgreSQL database formats. Consolidation of these data into a single database can increase their accessibility and reusability, which is relevant to diverse...

Album caption and index card: View southeast across homes partially buried by tephra. Vapor-shrouded Eldfell looms in the distance. Pipes which conveyed seawater to the lava flows cross the tephra in the middle ground. Gases rise from the tephra behind the telephone pole. Heimaey, Iceland volcanic eruption of 1973. Iceland. July 23, 1973. Published in U.S. Geological Survey Government Information Product (gip), "Man Against Volcano: The Eruption on Heimaey, Vestmann Islands, Iceland" on page 7, lower photo. 1977.

Album caption and index card: Panoramic view east-southeast across the fishing port of Vestmannaeyjar. The 6,000 year old Helgafell (Holy Mountain) Volcano is to the right, the new Eldfell (Fire Mountain) Volcano is on the right center. Dark, tephra-covered ground is apparent, with lava flows into the town and harbor in the left background. Heimaey, Iceland volcanic eruption of 1973. Iceland. May 5, 1973. (Graphics on published photo only.) Published in U.S. Geological Survey Government Information Product (gip), "Man Against Volcano: The Eruption on Heimaey, Vestmann Islands, Iceland" on pages 12-13. 1977.

The Terrestrial Analogs Data Portal (TADP; https://tadp.astrogeology.usgs.gov/) has been established as a repository and data discovery portal which leverages USGS ScienceBase, a trusted long-term digital repository that provides access to all USGS data services. Creation of the TADP service is in response to a number of NASA-generated reports identifying the need for a permanent planetary analog repository which adheres to standards-based archives. Presented here is the first version of the Planetary Aeolian Analog Database (PAAD) that will be incorporated into the TADP. This dataset is focused on dune field analogs, currently comprising 45 sites from all over the world and includes a set of "core" attributes (that...

Album caption and index card: View to the south from Vestmannaeyjar's outer harbor. Seawater is being sprayed directly onto the lava flow front to arrest infilling of the harbor entrance. Heimaey, Iceland volcanic eruption of 1973. Iceland, May 4, 1973. Published in U.S. Geological Survey Government Information Product (gip), "Man Against Volcano: The Eruption on Heimaey, Vestmann Islands, Iceland" on page 12. 1977.

This data release is a companion to Dundas et al., 2020. Additional description of the methods and rationale for data collection is provided there. The primary data are from several categories of data-logging sensors described in detail below. Sixteen images are also included as part of this data release. These document the sensor locations as described in Dundas et al. (2020).

Album caption and index card: Oblique aerial view north-northwestwards of the island of Heimaey, Vestmann Islands, Iceland, showing the fishing town of Vestmannaeyjar, the east-west-trending harbor in the background, and the extinct volcano Hegafell rising to 741 ft. in the right center of the island. On January 23, 1973, lava began to pour from 0.9 miles north-northeast trending fissure to the east (right) of Helgafell. Eldfell Volcano eventually grew to be similar in height to Helgafel. Iceland volcanic eruption of 1973. Iceland. (August 1966). Published on page 4 in the U.S. Geological Survey Government Information Product, "Man Against Volcano: The Eruption of Heimaey, Vestmann Islands, Iceland." 1977.
