This data release contains data used to develop models and maps that estimate the probabilities of exceeding various thresholds of arsenic concentrations in private domestic wells throughout the conterminous United States. Three boosted regression tree (BRT) models were developed separately to estimate the probability of private well arsenic concentrations exceeding 1, 5, and 10 micrograms per liter (µg/L). A random forest (RF) model was developed to estimate the most probable arsenic concentration category (≤5, >5 to ≤10, or >10 µg/L). The models use arsenic concentration data from private domestic wells located throughout the conterminous United States and independent variables that are available as geospatial...

This metadata record documents a set of 118 comma delimited files and a data dictionary describing the inputs for the U.S. Geological Survey Precipitation Runoff Modeling System (PRMS) which is used to drive the National Hydrologic Model (NHM) for the United States-Canada transboundary domain. The National Hydrologic Model database contains parameters for hydrologic response units (HRUs) and stream segments needed to run the NHM. These parameters are generated using python scripts to process input datasets such as digital elevation models, soil maps, and land cover classifications. Many of the parameters were left at their default model value as they would need to be calibrated as part of the PRMS model development...
Previous work by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) developed models to estimate the amount of water that is withdrawn and consumed by thermoelectric power plants (Diehl and others, 2013; Diehl and Harris, 2014; Harris and Diehl, 2019 [full citations listed in srcinfo of the metadata file]). This data release presents a historical reanalysis of thermoelectric water use from 2008 to 2020 and includes monthly and annual water withdrawal and consumption estimates, thermodynamically plausible ranges of minimum and maximum withdrawal and consumption estimates, and associated information for 1,360 water-using, utility-scale thermoelectric power plants in the United States. The term “reanalysis” refers to the process of...
Groundwater samples from public and private drinking water wells throughout the state of New Hampshire were analyzed for total Arsenic (As). Samples were collected after pH, specific conductivity, dissolved oxygen, and water temperature had met stabilization criteria as outlined in the USGS National Field Manual (United States Geological Survey 2005). The As analyses were carried out in the geochemistry laboratory in the Department of Earth Sciences at the University of New Hampshire (UNH). Not including replicate analysis, a total of 527 samples were analyzed via a hydride generator-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (HG-ICP-MS) using a Cetac HGX-200 plumbed into a Nu Instruments Attom high-resolution...
This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release consists of two hydrographic datasets with spatial modeling units, two sets of spatial data consistent with the National Hydrologic Model (NHM) Geospatial Fabric for National Hydrologic Modeling (abbreviated within this document as GFv1, Viger and Bock, 2014), and a database of 118 parameters used to run the NHM . These datasets are found as subpages to this landing page as 1) the GIS (geographic information system) features of the United States-Canada Transboundary Geospatial Fabric (TGF, added 08/04/2020), 2) the GIS features of the Geospatial Fabric v1.1 (GFv1.1 or v1_1, added 08/04/2020) which is an update to the GF and includes the TGF, 3) Topographic derivative...

The Geospatial Fabric version 1.1 (GFv1.1 or v1_1) is a dataset of spatial modeling units covering the conterminous United States (CONUS) and most major river basins that flow in from Canada. The GFv1.1 is an update to the original Geospatial Fabric (GFv1, Viger and Bock, 2014) for the National Hydrologic Modeling (NHM). Analogous to the GFv1, the GFv1.1 described here includes the following vector feature classes: points of interest (POIs_v1_1), a stream network (nsegment_v1_1), and hydrologic response units (nhru_v1_1), with several additional ancillary tables. These data are contained within the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) geodatabase format (GFv1.1.gdb).

The Transboundary Geospatial Fabric (TGF) is a dataset of spatial modeling units consistent with the Geospatial Fabric for National Hydrologic Modeling (abbreviated within this document as GFv1, Viger and Bock, 2014). These features were derived from National Hydrography Dataset Plus High Resolution data (NHDPlus HR, U.S. Geological Survey [USGS], 2018) in the following conterminous United States (CONUS) - Canada transboundary four-digit Hydrologic Units (HUC4): 0101, 0105, 0108, 0901, 0902, 0903, 0904, 1005, 1006, 1701, 1702, and 1711. The data described here include the following vector feature classes: points of interest (POIs), a stream network (nsegment), major waterbodies (waterbodies), and hydrologic response...
This data release contains a table of measured arsenic concentrations and associated model input variables used to test existing multivariate logistic regression models that predict the probabilities of arsenic concentrations exceeding threshold values of 1, 5, and 10 micrograms per liter in bedrock aquifers of New Hampshire. Location data are censored to the county level.

This dataset contains annual flow metrics quantifying drought and low streamflows for USGS GAGES-2 gages in the contiguous U.S. satisfying data completeness checks for the periods 1921-2020, 1951-2020, and 1981-2020. The dataset also contains annual climate variables from the USGS Monthly Water Balance Model (MWBM). The dataset provides trend analysis outputs for annual drought and low flow metrics for the periods 1921-2020, 1951-2020, and 1981-2020. Finally, we include six R language code files that were used to create the values included in this release as summarized in the process step section.

This data release contains data used to develop models and maps that estimate the occurrence of lithium in groundwater used as drinking water throughout the conterminous United States. An extreme gradient boosting model was developed to estimate the most probable lithium concentration category (≤4, >4 to ≤10, >10 to ≤30, or >30 µg/L). The model uses lithium concentration data from wells located throughout the conterminous United States and predictor variables that are available as geospatial data. The model is included in this data release in the zipped folder named Model_Archive and was used to produce maps that are also included in this data release. The model input data (predictor variables) that were used to...

Documented in this data release are data used to model and map the probability of arsenic being greater than 10 micrograms per liter in private domestic wells throughout the conterminous United States during drought conditions (Lombard and others, 2020). The model used to predict the probability of arsenic exceeding 10 micrograms per liter in private domestic wells was previously developed and documented by Ayotte and others (2017). Independent variables in the model include groundwater recharge and annual precipitation. In order to assess the impact of drought these variables were altered to simulate drought by reducing the 30-year average annual values by 25 and 50 percent. The impact of drought was also assessed...

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release record consists of topographic data themes that cover the United States-Canada Transboundary Geospatial Fabric (TGF) domain. The 30-meter (m) raster data sets included under Topographic Derivatives are: 1) digital elevation (dem.tif) , 2) topographic wetness index (TWI, twi100X.tif) ,3) slope (rise over run, slope100X.tif), 4) aspect (asp100X.tif), and flow direction (fdr.tif). In some instances, values were multiplied by 100 and converted from double precision to integer format to reduce file sizes. All file formats are in GeoTIFF (Geographic Tagged Imaged Format).
