**THIS NEWER 2016 DIGITAL MAP REPLACES THE OLDER 2014 VERSION OF THE GRI GATE Geomorphological-GIS data. The Unpublished Digital Pre-Hurricane Sandy Geomorphological-GIS Map of the Jamaica Bay Unit, Gateway National Recreation Area, New York is composed of GIS data layers and GIS tables in a 10.1 file geodatabase (jaba_geomorphology.gdb), a 10.1 ArcMap (.MXD) map document (jaba_geomorphology.mxd), individual 10.1 layer (.LYR) files for each GIS data layer, an ancillary map information (.PDF) document (gate_geomorphology.pdf) which contains source map unit descriptions, as well as other source map text, figures and tables, metadata in FGDC text (.TXT) and FAQ (.HTML) formats, and a GIS readme file (gate_gis_readme.pdf). Please read the gate_gis_readme.pdf for information pertaining to the proper extraction of the file geodatabase and other map files. To request GIS data in ESRI 10.1 shapefile format contact Stephanie O’Meara (stephanie.omeara@colostate.edu; see contact information below). The data is also available as a 2.2 KMZ/KML file for use in Google Earth, however, this format version of the map is limited in data layers presented and in access to GRI ancillary table information. Google Earth software is available for free at: http://www.google.com/earth/index.html. Users are encouraged to only use the Google Earth data for basic visualization, and to use the GIS data for any type of data analysis or investigation. The data were completed as a component of the Geologic Resources Inventory (GRI) program, a National Park Service (NPS) Inventory and Monitoring (I&M) Division funded program that is administered by the NPS Geologic Resources Division (GRD). Source geologic maps and data used to complete this GRI digital dataset were provided by the following: Rutgers University Institute of Marine and Coastal Sciences. Detailed information concerning the sources used and their contribution the GRI product are listed in the Source Citation section(s) of this metadata record (jaba_pre-sandy_metadata_faq.html; available at http://nrdata.nps.gov/geology/gri_data/gis/gate/jaba_pre-sandy_metadata_faq.html). Users of this data are cautioned about the locational accuracy of features within this dataset. Based on the source map scale of 1:6,000 and United States National Map Accuracy Standards features are within (horizontally) 5.08 meters or 16.67 feet of their actual location as presented by this dataset. Users of this data should thus not assume the location of features is exactly where they are portrayed in Google Earth, ArcGIS or other software used to display this dataset. All GIS and ancillary tables were produced as per the NPS GRI Geology-GIS Geodatabase Data Model v. 2.3. (available at: http://science.nature.nps.gov/im/inventory/geology/GeologyGISDataModel.cfm). The GIS data projection is NAD83, UTM Zone 18N, however, for the KML/KMZ format the data is projected upon export to WGS84 Geographic, the native coordinate system used by Google Earth. The data is within the area of interest of Gateway National Recreation Area

These data provide an accurate high-resolution shoreline compiled from imagery of JAMAICA BAY, NY . This vector shoreline data is based on an office interpretation of imagery that may be suitable as a geographic information system (GIS) data layer. This metadata describes information for both the line and point shapefiles. The NGS attribution scheme 'Coastal Cartographic Object Attribute Source Table (C-COAST)' was developed to conform the attribution of various sources of shoreline data into one attribution catalog. C-COAST is not a recognized standard, but was influenced by the International Hydrographic Organization's S-57 Object-Attribute standard so the data would be more accurately translated into S-57.

These data were automated to provide an accurate high-resolution historical shoreline of New York Harbor, Raritan and Jamaica Bays suitable as a geographic information system (GIS) data layer. These data are derived from shoreline maps that were produced by the NOAA National Ocean Service including its predecessor agencies which were based on an office interpretation of imagery and/or field survey. The NGS attribution scheme 'Coastal Cartographic Object Attribute Source Table (C-COAST)' was developed to conform the attribution of various sources of shoreline data into one attribution catalog.

This map highlights 8962 stations with monthly discharge data, including data derived daily up to 20 December 2013. The GRDB (Global Runoff DataBase) is built on an initial dataset collected in the early 1980s from the responses to WMO (World Meteorological Organization request to its member countries to provide a global hydrological data set to complement a specific set of atmospheric data in the framework of the First Global GARP Experiment (FCGE). The initial dataset of monthly river discharge data over a period of several years around 1980 was supplemented with the UNESCO monthly river discharge data collection 1965-85. Today the database comprises discharge data of nearly 9.000 gauging stations from all over the world. Since 1993 the total number of station-years has increased by a factor of around 10.Credits and partnerships:OSU - College of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric SciencesCarniege Corporation of New YGloabl orkNASCE - Northwest Alliance for Computational Science & EngineeringInternational Water Management InstituteUNESCO - United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural OrganisationUSGS - United States Geological Survey

This report presents a portfolio formulation process in the context of the Kingston Water Fund. This design exercise was focused on the upper watersheds of the Wag and Hope rivers, the contributing areas of Hermitage Dam and Mona Reservoir, the two most important reservoir serving Kingston metropolitan area. The priority areas to restore lost forest patches and implement sustainable agricultural practices where mapped using RIOS. The potential returns of these activities in terms of sediment export reduction were then estimated using InVEST SDR model. RIOS analysis pointed out that in the case of Wag watershed from the 1,404 Has. a total of 251 hectares correspond to degraded areas. In the case of Hope watershed it was found that from the total of 4,000 Has., 1,745 are under degraded conditions. Current sediment export reported by InVEST SDR was estimated at 33K Tons.Yr^-1 for Wag watershed, and 155K Tons.Yr^-1 for Hope watershed. The potential of sediment export reduction of implementing the activities identified in the Kingston Water Fund Feasibility Decision Support was estimated at -16% for Wag watershed and -42% for Hope watershed. It is important to note that upper Hope watershed presents a more degraded condition that upper Wag watershed, which explains why the watershed response to Water Fund activities mapped by RIOS offer a higher response in SDR in the Hope watershed, but it is worth to remark that interventions in both watersheds contribute to water security with closely performance ( % of sediment reduction per Hectare of intervention). If further information on interventions costs per hectare and reduction in CAPex and OPex in water treatment as a function of changes in turbidity where available a complete Return on Investment on Water Fund interventions can be formulated taking this report as starting point.http://leutra.geogr.uni-jena.de/TNC_RBIS_CARIBBEAN/metadata/view.php?view=doc_documents&id=986

We used data from 1984 samples taken approximately monthly over 11 yrs (1982 to 1993) with a drop trap sampler that sampled an area of 2.6 m2 to quantify and compare nekton densities along Spartina alterniflora marsh-edge and adjacent shallow nonvegetated bottom in Carancahua Cove, Galveston Bay estuary, Texas, USA. We also used a Geographic Information System (GIS), aerial photography, and population models to track changes in wetland area and trends in fishery populations over time.
