Water Area
Land area is a measurement providing the size, in square miles, of the land portions of geographic entities for which the Census Bureau tabulates and disseminates data. Area is calculated from the specific boundary recorded for each entity in the Census Bureau's geographic database. Land area is based on current information in the TIGER® data base, calculated for use with Census 2010.
Water Area figures include inland, coastal, Great Lakes, and territorial sea water. Inland water consists of any lake, reservoir, pond, or similar body of water that is recorded in the Census Bureau's geographic database. It also includes any river, creek, canal, stream, or similar feature that is recorded in that database as a two- dimensional feature (rather than as a single line). The portions of the oceans and related large embayments (such as Chesapeake Bay and Puget Sound), the Gulf of Mexico, and the Caribbean Sea that belong to the United States and its territories are classified as coastal and territorial waters; the Great Lakes are treated as a separate water entity. Rivers and bays that empty into these bodies of water are treated as inland water from the point beyond which they are narrower than 1 nautical mile across. Identification of land and inland, coastal, territorial, and Great Lakes waters is for data presentation purposes only and does not necessarily reflect their legal definitions.

Ecological Land Classification / Classification Écologique des Terres
gnb.socrata.com | Last Updated 2024-10-01T03:05:49.000ZEcoregion - Seven New Brunswick Ecoregions delineate areas that are different with regard to climate (precipitation and temperature), based principally on elevation above sea level and marine influences. Ecodistrict - Ecodistricts are nested subdivisions of Ecoregions based on geomorphologic and lithologic differences. The correct way to quote an ecodistrict number is to quote both its ecoregion and ecodistrict numbers, separated by a dash, e.g.: 2-1 denotes the Upsalquitch Ecodistrict in the Northern Uplands Ecoregion. Ecosection - Ecosections are nested subdivisions of Ecoregions based on topographic and relief differences. The correct way to quote an ecosection number is to quote its ecoregion, ecodistrict, and ecosection numbers, each separated by a dash, e.g.: 2-1-3 denotes Ecosection 3 of the Upsalquitch Ecodistrict in the Northern Uplands Ecoregion. Ecosite - Ecosites capture individual landforms that in theory outline a single forest ecosystem type at the 1:50,000 mapping scale. They are more-or-less uniform with regard soil moisture regime, soil nutrient regime, and topoclimate. Within ecoregions, each ecosite may be presumed to have similar vegetation potential in terms of native species composition, forest cover type, and timber growth rate (although the situation on the ground often deviates from what is mapped due to mapping imprecision and/or vegetation disturbance). To most narrowly describe an ecosite’s landscape context, the correct way to label it is to quote its ecoregion, ecodistrict, ecosection, and ecosite numbers, each separated by a dash, e.g.: 2-1-3-7 denotes Ecosite 7 in Ecosection 3 of the Upsalquitch Ecodistrict (1) in the Northern Uplands Ecoregion (2). For more information, see Department of Natural Resources 2007. Our landscape heritage [electronic resource] : the story of ecological land classification in New Brunswick. General editor: Vincent F. Zelazny. -- 2nd ed. / Écorégion : Les sept écorégions du Nouveau-Brunswick sont définies par leurs différences climatiques (précipitations et températures), fondées principalement sur l’élévation et sur les influences maritimes. Écodistrict : Les écodistricts sont des subdivisions des écorégions caractérisées par des différences de nature géomorphologique et lithologique. La bonne façon de désigner un écodistrict est de mentionner le numéro de l’écorégion et celui de l’écodistrict séparés par un tiret; par exemple 2-1 désigne l’écodistrict d’Upsalquitch, situé dans l’écorégion du bas-plateau du Nord. Écosection : Les écosections sont des subdivisions des écorégions caractérisées par des différences de nature topographique. La bonne façon de désigner une écosection est de mentionner les numéros de l’écorégion, de l’écodistrict et de l’écosection séparés par un tiret; par exemple 2-1-3 désigne l’écosection 3 de l’écodistrict d’Upsalquitch, situé dans l’écorégion du bas-plateau du Nord. Écosite : Les écosites regroupent des reliefs individuels qui, en théorie, définissent un seul type d’écosystème forestier cartographié à l’échelle de 1/50 000. Ils ont des caractéristiques plus ou moins uniformes en ce qui concerne le régime hygrométrique, les éléments nutritifs disponibles dans le sol et le topoclimat. À l’intérieur de chaque écorégion, on suppose que chaque écosite peut regrouper le même type de végétation en terme de composition des espèces indigènes, de type de couvert forestier et de vitesse de croissance des arbres (même si la situation sur le terrain s’écarte souvent de ce qui est cartographié en raison d’imprécisions ou de perturbations de la végétation). Pour décrire le plus rigoureusement possible le contexte paysager d’un écosite, on le désigne par les numéros attribués à l’écorégion, à l’écodistrict, à l’écosection et à l’écosite, séparés par un tiret; par exemple, 2-1-3-7 désigne l’écosite 7 dans l’écosection 3 de l’écodistrict d’Upsalquitch (1), dans l’écorégion du bas-plateau du Nord (2).

Beach Lab Data
data.cityofchicago.org | Last Updated 2024-09-04T19:00:17.000ZThe Chicago Park District collects and analyzes water samples from beaches along Chicago’s Lake Michigan lakefront. The Chicago Park District partners with the University of Illinois at Chicago Department of Public Health Laboratory to analyze water samples using a new DNA testing method called Rapid Testing Method (qPCR analysis) which tests for Enterococci in order to monitor swimming safety. The rapid testing method (qPCR analysis) is a new method that measures levels of pathogenic DNA in beach water. Unlike the culture based test that requires up to 24 hours of processing, the new rapid testing method requires a 4-5 hours for results. The Chicago Park District can use results of the rapid test to notify the public when levels exceed UPEPA recommended levels, which is 1000* CCE. When DNA bacteria levels exceed 1000 CCE, a yellow swim advisory flag is implemented. For more information please refer to the USEPA Recreational Water Quality Criteria (http://water.epa.gov/scitech/swguidance/standards/criteria/health/recreation). Historically, the Chicago Park District used the culture based analysis method and statistical prediction models to monitor beach water quality. The culture based method tests for Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria which is an indicator species for the presence of disease-causing bacteria, viruses, and protozoans that may pose health risks to the public. This method requires 18-24 hours of processing to receive results. The Chicago Park District would use results of the culture based method to notify the public when levels exceed UPEPA recommended levels, which is 235* CFU. When bacteria levels exceed 235 CFU, a yellow swim advisory flag was implemented. This standard is still used at most beaches throughout the Great Lakes region. For more information please refer to the USEPA Recreational Water Quality Criteria. The statistical prediction model forecasted real-time Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria levels present in the water. The Chicago Park District (CPD) in partnership with the US Geological Survey, developed statistical prediction models by using weather data pulled from CPD buoys (https://data.cityofchicago.org/d/qmqz-2xku) and weather stations (https://data.cityofchicago.org/d/k7hf-8y75). The Chicago Park District would use results of the predictive model to notify the public when bacteria levels would exceed 235 CFU. When bacteria levels exceed 235 CFU, a yellow swim advisory flag was implemented. * The unit of measurement for Escherichia coli is Colony Forming Units (CFU) per 100 milliliters of water. (Culture Based Method / Statistical Prediction Model) *The unit of measuring DNA is Enterococci Calibrator Cell Equivalents (CCE) per 100 milliliters of water. (Rapid Testing Analysis)

Permitted Dams in the State of Iowa
mydata.iowa.gov | Last Updated 2023-08-30T20:58:56.000ZPermitted dams in Iowa and associated attributes, as recorded by the Floodplain Section of the DNR. The dams regulated are those with the parameters listed below: a. Any dam designed to provide a sum of permanent and temporary storage exceeding 50 acre-feet at the top of dam elevation, or 25 acre-feet if the dam does not have an emergency spillway, and which has a height of 5 feet or more. b. Any dam designed to provide permanent storage in excess of 18 acre-feet and which has a height of 5 feet or more. c. Any dam located in or within 1 mile of an incorporated municipality, if the dam has a height of 10 feet or more, stores 10 acre-feet or more at the top of dam elevation, and is situated such that the discharge from the dam will flow through the incorporated area. d. Also regardless of dam height and storage, any urban area dam situated across a stream that has a drainage are of more than two square miles and any dam in a rural area situated across a stream that has a drainage area of more than 10 square mile. The generally known threshold is any dam that has a height of five feet or more and a permanent water storage volume of more than 18 acre-feet. The height is measure from the top of the dam to the lowest point on the downstream side of the dam, usually the streambed.
