Fisheries managers and researchers working on local, state, and regional projects routinely gather large quantities of fisheries data. Data collected as part of these projects are often made available to the public via specialized web interfaces specific to the project. This approach serves the immediate need to make the data publically available; however, the visibility and thus long term viability of these datasets can be improved by taking a longer term and larger scale view. In 2008, the USGS National Biological Information Infrastructure embarked on a pilot project, the National Fisheries Data Infrastructure (NFDI), which was subsequently adopted by the Science and Data Committee for use in the National Fish...
The Appalachian Landscape Conservation Cooperative (LCC) provided a grant to Cornell University Environmental Engineers to study how the region’s surface freshwater supply and the health of natural systems delivering this resource have been impacted and may be altered in the coming years under increasing water withdrawals.The research focuses on the Marcellus Shale region in the Central Appalachians, including portions of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, West Virginia, and Virginia. In addition to considering the cumulative impacts of water withdrawals, the researchers looked at specific impacts of large water withdrawals with hydraulic fracturing in the Marcellus Shale region as one example.Datasets include...

This public map service contains 2 geospatial layers and 3 tables which provide data information from the MARIS database. The MARIS SURVEY POINTS layer depicts every fish and/or water quality sampling location submitted by participating MARIS states. Each point is attributed with the originator (who submitted the data), the name of the dataset (multiple datasets may have been submitted for each originator), and a unique "water ID" which has been generated by the MARIS project for each sampling point. The "maris_water_id" from the MARIS SURVEY POINTS layer can be used to link each sampling point with data from the 3 tables which are part of this service. See the service descriptions for each table for more information....
