Monroe County, in southeastern West Virginia, hosts world-class karst within carbonate units of Mississippian and Ordovician age. There are at least 412 known caves in the county. Location data for these caves were collected from the West Virginia Speleological Survey (WVASS) Bulletin 22 (Dasher, 2019). Point features were created in ArcGIS Pro for each cave location and were used to make a point density raster. This raster displays the number of cave points per square kilometer.

Surface electrical resistivity tomography (ERT), electromagnetic induction (EMI), and self-potential (SP) data were acquired March 9 - 20, 2018 by the U.S. Geological Survey, in collaboration with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, at the Jim Woodruff Lock and Dam near Chattahoochee, Florida. Eleven ERT profiles were acquired along the right (west) abutment, and immediately downstream, of the concrete, fixed-crest spillway located west of the lock to map geologic structure at depths up to 50 meters (m) using the Advanced Geosciences, Inc. SuperSting R8 resistivity meter. This data release includes the raw and processed resistivity data as well as inverted resistivity models. All are provided as digital data, and...

In cooperation with the Puerto Rico Environmental Quality Board, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) calculated over 40 different basin characteristics as part of preparing the Puerto Rico StreamStats application. These data were used to update the peak flow and low flow regression equations for Puerto Rico. These datasets are raster representations of various environmental, geological, and land use attributes within the Puerto Rico StreamStats 2020 study area, and will be served in the Puerto Rico StreamStats 2020 application to describe delineated watersheds. The StreamStats application provides access to spatial analytical tools that are useful for water-resources planning and management, and for engineering and...

Surface electrical resistivity tomography (ERT), electromagnetic induction (EMI), and self-potential (SP) data were acquired March 9 - 20, 2018 by the U.S. Geological Survey, in collaboration with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, at the Jim Woodruff Lock and Dam near Chattahoochee, Florida. Self-potential (SP) data were acquired at 384 unique stations with Borin Stelth 3 copper-copper sulfate porous-pot electrodes and Keysight U1253B high-impedance multimeter to identify variations in subsurface hydrologic flow. This data release includes the raw and processed self-potential data. They are provided as digital data, and data fields are defined in the data dictionary. Jim Woodruff Lock and Dam is located...

The Winchester 30 x 60 minute quadrangle, covering northern Virginia, West Virginia, and Maryland, hosts karsts within carbonate units of Devonian to Cambrian age. Lidar-derived elevation data, acquired between 2011 and 2019, were used to create a mosaic of 1-meter resolution working digital elevation models (DEMs), from which surface depressions were identified using a semi-automated workflow in ArcGIS. Depressions in the automated inventory were systematically checked by a geologist using aerial imagery, lidar-derived imagery, and 3D viewing of the lidar imagery. Distinguishing features, such as modification by human activities or hydrological significance (stream sink, ephemerally ponded, etc.), were noted wherever...

Surface electrical resistivity tomography (ERT), electromagnetic induction (EMI), and self-potential (SP) data were acquired March 9 - 20, 2018 by the U.S. Geological Survey, in collaboration with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, at the Jim Woodruff Lock and Dam near Chattahoochee, Florida. Frequency-domain electromagnetic induction data were acquired along approximately 9 line-kilometers with the Geophex GEM-2 system to map variations in structure up to about 10 m in depth. This data release includes the raw and processed frequency-dependent in-phase and quadrature data. They are provided as digital data, and data fields are defined in the data dictionary. Jim Woodruff Lock and Dam is located on the Apalachicola...

Monroe County in southeastern West Virginia hosts world-class karst within carbonate units of Mississippian and Ordovician age. Lidar-derived elevation data acquired in late December of 2016 were used to create a 3-meter resolution working digital elevation model (DEM), from which surface depressions were identified using a semi-automated workflow in ArcGIS®. Depressions in the automated inventory were systematically checked by a geologist within a grid of 1.5 square kilometer tiles using aerial imagery, lidar-derived imagery, and 3D viewing of the lidar imagery. Distinguishing features such as modification by human activities or hydrological significance (stream sink, ephemerally ponded, etc.) were noted wherever...
