Early Estimates of Exotic Annual Grass (EAG) in the Sagebrush Biome, USA, 2024

These datasets provide early estimates of 2024 fractional cover for exotic annual grass (EAG) species and one native perennial grass species on a weekly basis from April to late June. Typically, the EAG estimates are publicly released within 7-13 days of the latest satellite observation used for that version. Each weekly release contains five fractional cover maps along with their corresponding confidence maps for: 1) a group of 16 species of EAGs, 2) cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum); 3) Field Brome (Bromus arvensis); 4) medusahead (Taeniatherum caput-medusae); and 5) Sandberg bluegrass (Poa secunda). These datasets were generated leveraging field observations from Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Assessment, Inventory,...

Principal Aquifers of the 48 Conterminous United States, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands

Note: this data release has been deprecated. Please see new data release here: https://doi.org/10.5066/P9Y2HOUJ. These data were originally released on the Water Mission Area National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI) Node and were migrated to ScienceBase in 2023. This data release has since been identified as a duplicate record stemming from the migration of two distinct offerings of identical data on the NSDI node. These data were released prior to the October 1, 2016 effective date for the USGS’s policy dictating the review, approval, and release of scientific data as referenced in USGS Survey Manual Chapter 502.8 Fundamental Science Practices: Review and Approval of Scientific Data for Release.

Summer Roost Site Suitability Analyses of Four North American Bat Species in the Eastern United States

This data release contains the spatial raster outputs from analyses of summer roost site habitat for each of 4 species considered under the United States Forest Service proposed Bat Conservation Strategy (Myotis lucifugus, MYLU; Myotis septentrionalis, MYSE; Myotis sodalis, MYSO; and Perimyotis subflavus, PESU). The included raster data represent the mean suitability for summer roosting habitat for each of the four species (expressed as a numerical value from 0 to 1), the prediction interval (difference between the 5th and 95th confidence intervals), as well as the environmental covariates used to model habitat. All raster data are produced at a spatial resolution of 250 m per pixel. Summer roost site suitability...
