This beta version of the Atlas brings together science, data and knowledge on biodiversity, climate change impacts, and equity to help inform and inspire land, water, and wildlife conservation and restoration efforts of individuals, land managers, policymakers, and communities.
Surface water, like rivers and lakes, as well as groundwater have flows that change all the time. The USGS maps and measures water to help understand the environment and how water moves through it. Maps are important tools in understanding water resources, conditions, and issues.
12 cze 2018 · This analysis identifies distinguishing characteristics of cities across the contiguous United States that embrace water conservation policies and allows us to differentiate state-level from MSA-level effects.
Below, we briefly explore some ways to incentivize BMPs to improve the quantity and quality of the water in US streams and rivers. We focus on rural and agricultural watersheds but suggest that the policy implications are applicable to other landscapes.
12 sty 2024 · The National Water Availability Assessment Data Companion is a centralized website and data delivery system that will provide routinely updated and nationally consistent modeled water quantity, water quality, and water use information, along with long-term trends in observational data.
2 mar 2019 · We present a conceptual model that explores the relationship of streamflow trends to 15 water-quality parameters at 370 sites across the contiguous United States (US). Our analytical framework uses discrete water-quality data, daily streamflow records, and a statistical model to estimate water-quality trends between 1982 and 2012 and parse ...
3 cze 2020 · Our objectives are to (1) describe the history and ecology of the Wabash River fish ecosystem, (2) compare ecological trends in two midwestern US rivers using published sources, and (3) suggest potential steps for protecting and conserving the Wabash River that could be applied to other large river ecosystems.
