This dataset is a compilation of forest insect, disease and abiotic damage mapped by aerial detection surveys on forested areas in the United States. At this time, the National Aerial Survey Data Standards require only mortality and defoliation data be collected and reported. However, many cooperators collect data on other types of damage and therefore, the national database has been designed to accommodate these data. Low-level flights, typically 1,000 to 2,000 feet above ground level, are used to map forest damage. Observers use paper maps, typically 1:100,000 scale USGS maps, upon which they record the damage. There is also a digital sketchmap system that may be used. The digital system uses GPS to display the...
Three datasets are included: 1) survival of domesticated canaries and American crows following sub-cutaneous challenges ranging from 101 – 105 plaque forming units of West Nile virus. 2) Arbitrary units of WNV detected by RT-PCR or plaque forming units of WNV cultured in vero cells in 4 separate studies. Culture results are indicated for each day post WNV challenge. 3) Weight (mass) changes in grams in canaries and crows each day following WNV challenge. Day 0 (inoculation) set to 0 gms, then each subsequent day is change in gms from previous day.

Heavy and light mineral separates were extracted from the 36 collected field samples following a USGS procedure (Strong and Driscoll, 2016) and analyzed using the handheld portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) analyzer as part of a study examining the occurrence of chromium and natural and anthropogenic hexavalent Chromium, Cr(VI), in groundwater. Data will be used to estimate naturally-occurring background Cr(VI) concentrations upgradient, near the plume margins, and downgradient from a mapped Cr(VI) contamination plume near Hinkley, CA (Izbicki and Groover, 2016). These pXRF results are part of a data release including grain size distribution, photographic and associated chemical and mineral analysis data for 36...

This feature class includes monitoring data collected nationally to understand the status, condition, and trend of resources on BLM lands. Data are collected in accordance with the Interpreting Indicators for Rangeland Health (IIRH) method. The IIRH method is a qualitative assessment of rangeland health, defined as "the degree to which the integrity of the soil, vegetation, water, and air, as well as the ecological processes of the rangeland ecosystem are balanced and sustained." Attributes include the final rating for IIRH indicators: hydrologic function, biotic integrity, and soil/site stability (see Entity/Attribute Section for exact details on attributes). Data were collected and managed by BLM Field Offices,...
This data represents areas of forest damage due to insect infestation, fire, flood, landslides, and windthrow. The information was collected, cooperatively by aerial surveys by both the USFS, Forest Health Protection (FHP) and ADNR, Div. of Forestry. Surveys are conducted primarily in July and August so that pest "signatures" may be identified during the optimal period for symptom development of ocular estimation. The aerial survey is coordinated such that the maximum extent of recent bark beetle damage (fading trees) and insect defoliation (discoloration, foliage loss) patterns may be determined. Surveys are flown in Southeast Alaska, Southcentral Alaska and Interior Alaska. The data represents a 10 year cumulative...
2010 USDA Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Region Aerial Detection Survey Data. This data depicts the occurrence and location of forest insect, disease, and other biotic and abiotic causes of tree mortality and tree damage. Aerial survey data is collected by observing areas of tree damage or tree mortality from an aircraft and manually recording the information onto a map. Due to the nature of aerial surveys, this data will only provide rough estimates of location, intensity and the resulting trend information for agents detectable from the air. Many of the most destructive diseases are not represented in the data because these agents are not detectable from aerial surveys. The data presented should only be used as...

These data are nutrition, economic value, and climate vulnerability of inland recreational consumption by country. The dietary contribution is measured as calcium, omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids docosahexaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid (hereafter referred as DHA+EPA), iron, protein, vitamin B12, and zinc supply. The economic contribution is measured as total consumptive use value [TCUV]). The climate vulnerability follows Nyboer et al. 2021, comparing four climate change scenarios.

The Qawalangin Tribe of Unalaska (QTU), a federally recognized sovereign nation located in the Aleutian Chain, Alaska,relies on a subsistence lifestyle for food security, traditional and cultural values, and economic benefits. However,subsistence foods and public health is currently at risk due to the confirmed detection of the Avian Influenza (HPAI) in redfox and eagles from Unalaska. Given that Alaska has been identified as a point of entry for Asian-origin influenza virusesinto North America, which has resulted in at least one fatality, zoonotic exposure to avian-origin influenza viruses is animportant human health concern. QTU plans to develop a team with tribal, city, Ounalashka Corporation, and state andfederal...

The people of the Lummi Nation are strongly connected to their cultural and traditional foods, including animals, berries, birds, fish, plants, and shellfish that physically and spiritually sustain them as people. Disease spread amongst these important wildlife species is a direct threat to the Lummi Community, their way of life, and their goal to maintain and defend treaty rights, including hunting and fishing within traditional hunting and gathering areas. The Wildlife Division was recently added to the Lummi Natural Resources (LNR) Department with the goal of further defending and protecting treaty rights related to wildlife, hunting, and gathering. In order to properly manage wildlife amongst current and future...
