Abstract:

This dataset depicts modeling results from the Water Balance Model-Thermoelectric Power & Thermal Pollution Model (WBM-TP2M) for the northeast U.S. Together, these models incorporate climate, hydrology, river network dynamics and multi-plant impacts to quantify the following on a per power plant basis and at a regional scale: • Thermal pollution • Electricity generation • Water withdrawal and consumption • River temperatures and discharge • Power plant efficiency losses associated with changes in available cooling water and climate conditions Results here show monthly average temperature changes due to power plant thermal effluents for years 2000 – 2010 Rivers shown have a modeled average summertime discharge of 5 cubic meters/second and higher for the years 2000 – 2010. Temperature changes are given in degrees Celsius and results were computed at a daily time steps and a 5 km cell spatial resolution.

Abstract:

This layer is a compilation of state-level vehicle road traffic data from Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Maryland, Washington DC, Virginia, and West Virginia. Since the database content varies among the source data, only the average annual daily traffic data was kept from each. The source date also varies as follows: 2021 - Kentucky and Pennsylvania; 2020 - Illinois and Iowa; 2019 - Indiana, New York, Ohio; 2018 - Washington DC, Maryland, Virginia.

Publication Date: 2011 - Data last updated: 2012-03-02

Abstract:

Depicts Energy Policy Act of 2005, Section 368 energy corridor areas that were designated on federal lands in the Western 11 states. Some corridor areas have notes in the Sec368Status field about special issues in designation that were still being analyzed when this layer was updated (July 26, 2018).

Abstract:

Locations of marine sediment samples collected and (or) analyzed by the U.S. Geological Survey, Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center starting in 1955 thru March 2014.

Abstract:

Sedimentary basins associated with the EIA shale plays as of 5-6-2011. Sedimentary basin which do not have shale plays as of publication date are not included in this file. Sources for the basins are mostly from the US Geological Survey and state agencies such as the WY Geological Survey.

Abstract:

Depicts risk of seismic peak horizontal ground acceleration (the fastest measured change in speed, for a particle at ground level that is moving horizontally due to an earthquake) with a 2% probability of exceedance in 50 years. Values are given in %g, where g is acceleration due to gravity, or 9.8 meters/second^2. The lines of equal hazard, which are the lines between the polygons, were determined by interpolating from a grid of equally spaced points in latitude and longitude. Each point was weighted based on the seismic hazard at that location. The grid spacing is 0.1 degrees for Alaska, 0.05 degrees for the conterminous United States, and 0.02 degrees for Hawaii.
