This dataset describes the quantity and morphology of microplastics in water, surficial sediment, sediment core, fish, and shellfish samples from Lake Mead National Recreation Area (Nevada/Arizona). Water and surficial sediment samples were collected once at 9 locations. A sediment core (33 cm long) was extracted from Las Vegas Bay to assess changes in microplastic deposition over time. Striped bass (Morone saxatilis), common carp (Cyprinus carpio), quagga mussels (Dreissena bugensis), and Asian clams (Corbicula fluminea) were sampled at a subset of locations to assess biological uptake of microplastics. Sampling and analysis methods are described in the Processing Steps section of the metadata. All samples were...

This map geodatabase digitally represents the general distribution of bedrock geologic map units in the Turtle Mountains area, California, as portrayed in Plate 1 of USGS Bulletin 1713-B, Mineral resources of the Turtle Mountains Wilderness Study Area, San Bernardino County, California (1988), https://doi.org/10.3133/b1713B. The map covers parts of the Rice, Turtle Mountains, and Savahia Peak 15’ quadrangles at 1:48,000 scale. Plate 1 is titled Mineral resource potential map of the Turtle Mountains Wilderness Study Area, San Bernardino County, California. The current database represents the geologic map base of Plate 1, but does not include mines, prospects, and mineral-potential evaluations that Plate 1 also portrays....

Total dissolved solids (TDS) in surface waters affect water quality and useability and are of particular concern in the Colorado River Basin. Estimates of current and past TDS concentration and flux in rivers support appropriate management and salinity control measures. In this study we estimated the total dissolved solid concentration and flux at 11 sites on tributaries of the Colorado River, starting as early as 1938 until 2021. Of these sites, eight were not affected by dams. For these we estimated daily and water year flow normalized TDS concentration and flux using the Weighted Regressions on Time Discharge and Season (WRTDS) water quality modeling framework. For the three sites situated below dams, we used...
