Data

Hyperspectral image data and field measurements of Rhodamine WT dye concentration were obtained during a tracer study conducted at the Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology's River Experiment Center May 17-20, 2017, to support research on dispersion in river channels. The image data included in this data release were acquired using a Nano-Hyperspec (Headwall Photonics, Inc.)

To support research on remote sensing of rivers, several types of remotely sensed data and various field measurements were acquired from a reach of the upper Sacramento River in northern California, September 11 - October 18, 2017. These data sets also facilitate efforts to characterize in-stream habitat for salmon and monitor geomorphic change along the Sacramento River. This parent data releas

To support research on dispersion in river channels, a tracer dye experiment was performed on the Kootenai River in northern Idaho, September 25-27, 2017. This parent data release contains links to several types of field measurements and remotely sensed data acquired during this experiment: 1) in situ measurements of Rhodamine WT dye concentration; 2) reflectance spectra and corresponding concent

This dataset includes mercury and other constituent concentration and physical properties data for seven deep sediment profiles (ranging from 79 cm to 214 cm in length) collected from the thalwag of Alviso Slough, a major tributary to South San Francisco Bay (California, USA). Field sampling occurred during May 2012 (4 sites) and January 2016 (3 sites). Each profile was comprised of 1-4 core sub-s

The National Hydrogeologic Grid (NHG) dataset includes a raster and vector representation of 1-km cells defining a uniform grid that encompasses the continental United States. The value of each cell of the raster dataset corresponds to the 1-km cell number defined as 'cellnum' in the attributes of the vector data. The NHG consists of 4,000 rows and 4,980 columns, numbered from the top left corner

Hydraulic testing and long-term monitoring have revealed significant overpressures and dramatic underpressures in Paleozoic shales and carbonates at the Bruce nuclear site on the eastern flank of the Michigan basin near Tiverton, Ontario. Although several lines of evidence from both laboratory and field studies suggest that a small amount of gas phase methane could be present in the shale, previo

The U.S. Geological Survey acquired hyperspectral image data and various field measurements from a reach of the Deschutes River near Bend, OR, between Benham Falls and Dillon Falls July 26-29, 2016, to support research on remote sensing of river discharge. This parent data release includes links to child pages for the following data sets: 1) hyperspectral image data; 2) ground-based bathymetric s

Hyperspectral image data and various field measurements were acquired from a reach of the Snake River in Grand Teton National Park, WY, August 19-24, 2015, to support research on remote sensing of rivers. This parent data release includes links to child pages for the following data sets: 1) hyperspectral image data; 2) ground-based depth measurements obtained by wading and with with an acoustic D

There are 63 chemical elements that have two or more isotopes that are used to determine their standard atomic weights. The isotopic abundances and atomic weights of these elements can vary in normal materials due to physical and chemical fractionation processes (not due to radioactive decay). These variations are well known for 12 elements (hydrogen, lithium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, magn

This data release provides measurements of dye concentration collected to support and validate numerical simulations of dispersion on the Kootenai River, downstream of Bonners Ferry, Idaho. On August 13, 2008, at 06:00, 25.4 kilograms of rhodamine WT was diluted using raw river water in a 378.5 liter tank and released as a nearly single slug. The dye was released near River Kilometer (RKM) 239 ove

The U.S. Geological Survey obtained measurements of channel geometry, flow velocity, and river discharge from five rivers in Alaska September 18-20, 2016, to support research on remote sensing of river discharge. The streamflow data were acquired from the Knik, Matanuska, Chena, and Salcha Rivers and Montana Creek using TeleDyne RD Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCPs), including the RioPro,

Reported atrazine, carbaryl, chlorpyrifos, and fipronil concentrations for selected U.S. Geological Survey pesticide sampling sites were downloaded from the U.S. Geological Survey National Water Information System (NWIS) and modified for input into the SEAWAVE-QEX model. Modifications included identification of appropriate censoring limits to use for samples in which the pesticides were not detect
