Abstract

The Camp Fire rapidly spread across a landscape in Butte County, California, toward the city of Paradise in the early morning hours of 8 November 2018. GEE acquires L8 data products from USGS that include Real-Time Tier 1 DN values, representing scaled, calibrated at-sensor radiance, and Level-1 Precision Terrain (L1TP) processing. We carried out additional processing on the pre- and post-fire images, including an illumination correction to account for effects of steep topography, and radiometric normalization to ensure homogeneity between images. We also identified and processed high-quality images for both the pre-fire condition(25 Oct 2013), and the post-fire burn scar (26 Dec 2018). Using the tools we provided in the paper, we estimate that, over the first hour, the Camp Fire was consuming ~200 ha/minute of vegetation with a linear spread rate of 14 km over the fire’s first 25 minutes, or ~33km/hr. We briefly discuss broader use of remote sensing and geospatial analysis for fire research and risk management.

RiverPIXELS: paired Landsat images and expert-labeled sediment and water pixels for a selection of rivers v1.0

Dataset Schwenk, Jon ; Rowland, Joel

RiverPIXELS contains GeoTIFFs of hand-labeled water and sediment pixels from Landsat images containing rivers. Each of the 104 labeled patches contains 256 x 256 Landsat pixels (30 meter resolution). Our aim in releasing RiverPIXELS is to provide an "off-the-shelf" training and testing dataset for building machine-learned models to automatically identify rivers from multispectral imagery. While a number of trained models and/or surface water products already exist, RiverPIXELS aims for pixel-level accuracy in order to precisely identify river boundaries in particular. Our selection of rivers is heavily Arctic, but we include tropical and temperate rivers as well. Patches are provided formore »« less
Arctic delta Landsat image classifications

Dataset Piliouras, Anastasia ; Rowland, Joel

This dataset contains binary geotiff masks/classifications of six Arctic deltas for channels, lakes, land, and other small water bodies (see methods). Tiff files can be opened with any image viewer, but use of georeferencing data attached to the imagery will require a GIS platform (e.g., QGIS). Dataset includes individually classified scene masks for Colville (2014), Kolyma (2014), Lena (2016), Mackenzie (2014), Yenisei (2013), and Yukon (2014). We also provide .mat files for each delta that include a 2D array of the mosaicked images that is cropped to include only the area used in our analyses (see Piliouras and Rowland, 2020,more »« less
Fracture Sustainability Test, Pre- and Post-Test Photomicrographs

Dataset Kneafsey, Tim

The primary objective of this research is to understand how different rock types, mineral and fluid compositions, and fracture surface textures determine the longevity of fracture apertures, so that selection of reservoir rock can be economically optimized to reduce future refracturing. We are performing laboratory tests to study this in a custom apparatus at conditions relevant to EGS, with temperatures up to 250 degrees C (design maximum 300 degrees C). Our approach is to perform a number of long term (up to several months) laboratory experiments using relevant rock samples with different mineralogies to explore fracture sustainability under EGS conditions.more »« less
Orthoimagery and Shapefiles Documenting Pre- and Post-August 2019 Slope Disturbances, Teller Road Site, Seward Peninsula, Alaska, 2018-2019

Dataset DelVecchio, Joanmarie ; Lathrop, Emma ; Dann, Julian ; ...

This dataset was derived from UAS aerial photos and dGPS data collected at the Teller mile marker 47 site in 2018 and 2019 and used to support research quantifying the timing and rate of surface movements and analyze soil transport process in Arctic landscapes. In July 2018, a Phantom uncrewed aerial system (UAS) collected >6800 high resolution aerial photos of the lower portion of the Teller 47 watershed (see for raw photos; pending archive NGA281). During the UAS survey, 25 x 25 cm tile ground control points (GCPs) were laid out and secured with one rebar rod in the center. The four corners and rebar tops were surveyed with differential GPS, and these coordinates weremore »« less
EGS Collab Experiment 1: In-situ observation of pre-, co- and post-seismic shear slip preceding hydraulic fracturing

Dataset Guglielmi, Yves ; Schoenball, Martin ; Cook, Paul ; ...

Understanding the initiation and arrest of earthquakes is one of the long-standing challenges of seismology. Here we report on direct observations of borehole displacement by a meter-sized shear rupture induced by pressurization of metamorphic rock at 1.5 km depth. We observed the acceleration of sliding, followed by fast co-seismic slip and a transient afterslip phase. Total displacements were about 7, 5.5 and 9.5 micrometers, respectively for the observed pre-slip, co-seismic slip and afterslip. The observed pre-slip lasted about 0.4 seconds. Co-seismic slip was recorded by the 1 kHz displacement recording and a 12-component array of 3-C accelerometers sampled at 100more »« less
