Summary
Description
This data set contains sensitive biological resource data for threatened/endangered and rare reptiles in Alabama. Vector polygons in this data set represent the rare turtle and snake occurrences. Species-specific abundance, seasonality, status, life history, and source information are stored in relational data tables (described below) designed to be used in conjunction with this spatial data layer.This data set comprises a portion of the Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) data for Alabama. ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil. The ESI data include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources.

Description
File 100-102b is a 60-m ASCII grid of depth data collected near Midway Atoll in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands as of May 2003. This grid has been produced as part of the "Bathymetric Atlas of the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands -- A Planning Document for Benthic Habitat Mapping -- Draft -- May 2003. Data sources for the downloadable grids include: multibeam bathymetry from Simrad EM1002 and EM120 sonars aboard the R/V Kilo Moana collected in October/November 2003; multibeam bathymetry data from a SeaBeam 210 sonar aboard the R/V Kai'imikai-O-Kanaloa collected in 2000-2002; LIDAR data obtained using the LADS MK II lidar system; and depth data derived from IKONOS satellite imagery. No tidal corrections have been applied to the data. The data source location for each type of data is indicated in the "dot plot" browse objects. Additional single-beam bathymetric data are available in this area and are indicated on the 100-102b Plot C browse object, but these less accurate depths are not included in the downloadable grid. Multibeam data were processed using SABER editing software and MBSystem and multibeam, LIDAR and IKONOS data were integrated using MBSystem, and GMT. Grid spacing is 60-m, horizontal accuracy is 20m (no differential GPS correctors applied), vertical accuracy is depth dependent (~1% of water depth), WGS84 datum. These data are not to be used for navigation.

Description
The project area is composed of 16 counties in the State of South Carolina - Cherokee, Union, Laurens, Greenwood, Newberry, Chester, Fairfield, Lancaster, Chesterfield, Marlboro, Darlington, Dillon, Marion, Williamsburg, Clarendon, and Orangeburg. This metadata file is for the lidar county deliverables for Newberry County, SC. The project area consists of approximately 10,194 square miles including a buffer of 50 feet along the edges of the project area and an additional buffer in some areas. The project design of the lidar data acquisition was developed to support a nominal post spacing of 1.4 meters. The Fugro EarthData, Inc. acquisition team of Fugro Horizons, Inc. and North West Group acquired 721 flight lines in 44 lifts from January 15, 2008 through February 10, 2008. The data was divided into 5000' by 5000' foot cells that serve as the tiling scheme. Lidar data collection was performed with a Cessna 310 aircraft, utilizing a Leica ALS50-II MPiA sensor, collecting multiple return x, y, and z data as well as intensity data. Lidar data was processed to achieve a bare ground surface (Classes 2 and 8). Lidar data is remotely sensed high-resolution elevation data collected by an airborne collection platform. Using a combination of laser range finding, GPS positioning and inertial measurement technologies, lidar instruments are able to make highly detailed Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) of the earth's terrain, man-made structures, and vegetation.
Cellular toxicity (High-Throughput Cellular Assays for Modeling Toxicity in the Fish Reproductive System)

Summary
Description
The purpose of this project is to adapt cellular in vitro assay systems of the rainbow trout pituitary, liver and ovary for high-throughput screening (HTS) of environmental contaminants, particularly those that disrupt the reproductive endocrine system of fish and potentially impair reproductive health. Each assay will measure essential reproductive endocrine functions of the corresponding organ, for example follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) synthesis and secretion by pituitary cells, and permit derivation of the lowest observed effect and activation concentrations for a test contaminant. Results from the in vitro assays will be used to parameterize a computational model of the trout brain-pituitary-ovary-liver (BPOL) axis to assess the impact of a contaminant on oocyte maturation and spawning. Along with the BPOL modeling is determination of the hypothetical water concentration necessary to achieve a target organ level comparable to the various in vitro dose metrics. This is also sometimes referred to as reverse toxicokinetics. Thus, our ultimate goal is to demonstrate the feasibility of integrating in vitro assays with computational modeling as a surrogate for fish life-cycle testing for assessing the reproductive toxicity of environmental contaminants. This project will address key challenges identified with implementing the toxicity pathway concept (NRC 2007) and its ecological counterpart, the adverse outcome pathway, by establishing linkages between sub-cellular/cellular responses and whole-animal effects and in vitro/in vivo extrapolation of chemical dosimetry. Our experimental approach consists of three teams of investigators (Dr. Penny Swanson, NWFSC; Professor Graham Young, University of Washington, and Professor James Nagler, University of Idaho) pursuing the in vitro studies combined with a fourth team (Dr. Irvin R. Schultz, Battelle Pacific Northwest Division) that will perform computational and toxicokinetic modeling and provide centralized support for test chemical analysis.

Summary
Description
The dataset consists of 100 CTD casts in the region north of Flemish Cap. Some casts cover the full water column, while others only cover the upper 1000 db. The CTD casts were obtained with a SeaBird SBE911+ system, measuring temperature (2 sensors), conductivity (2 sensors), pressure, beam transmission, oxygen (plumbed in series with the primary T/C sensor pair), chlorophyll fluorescence, and turbidity. All sensors were sampled at 24 Hz. The data were processed using the SeaBird data processing software suite, SBEDataProcessing-Win32. A low pass filter, with time constant of 0.15 s, was applied to the pressure record. To account for the transit time between the temperature and conductivity sensors, the conductivity measurements were aligned with the temperature measurements using empirically determined time delays. The primary conductivity was delayed by 0.011 s relative to pressure (this is in addition to the advance of 0.073 s which is performed by the SeaBird deckbox during data acquisition, thus resulting in a net advance of 0.062 s). The secondary conductivity was advanced by 0.050 s. The oxygen voltage was advanced by 4 s relative to pressure. A correction for conductivity cell thermal mass effects was applied to both conductivity channels using the parameters recommended by SeaBird (alpha=0.03, 1/beta=7.0). The temperatures, conductivities, and oxygen voltage were then median filtered using a 7-scan window. A loop edit step was then applied, whereby portions of the cast in which the pressure was not changing sufficiently fast (0.2 dbar/s) were removed. This was followed by computation of salinity, potential temperature, potential density, sound velocity, geopotential anomaly, and oxygen concentration. Finally, the data from the downcast were averaged into 1 dbar bins. Further details of the CTD data processing can be found in the header portion of the individual cast files. The final data files contain raw sensor values (1 dbar bin averages) plus a number of derived variables (e.g. potential temperature, salinity, sigma-theta, oxygen). A full list of the output variables is contained in the header portion of the cast files. The casts were visually examined to determine the quality of the data from the 2 separate sensor suites (primary and secondary). A header line was placed in each file indicating the preferred sensor pair (PRIMARY or SECONDARY) if one was bad or whether both were of equal quality (BOTH GOOD).
