The objectives were to define the Quaternary geologic framework of the St. Clair River to evaluate the relationship between morphologic change of the riverbed and underlying stratigraphy. This report presents the geophysical and sample data collected from the St. Clair River, May 29-June 6, 2008 as part of the International Upper Great Lakes Study, a 5-year project funded by the International Joint Commission of the United States and Canada to examine whether physical changes in the St. Clair River are affecting water levels within the upper Great Lakes, to assess regulation plans for outflows from Lake Superior, and to examine the potential effect of climate change on the Great Lakes water levels ( http://www.iugls.org). This document makes available the data that were used in a separate report, U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 2009-1137, which detailed the interpretations of the Quaternary geologic framework of the region. This report includes a description of the suite of high-resolution acoustic and sediment-sampling systems that were used to map the morphology, surficial sediment distribution, and underlying geology of the Upper St. Clair River during USGS field activity 2008-016-FA . Video and photographs of the riverbed were also collected and are included in this data release. Future analyses will be focused on substrate erosion and its effects on river-channel morphology and geometry. Ultimately, the International Upper Great Lakes Study will attempt to determine where physical changes in the St. Clair River affect water flow and, subsequently, water levels in the Upper Great Lakes. Purpose: These data are supplied to provide the raw navigation collected by an Ashtech Z-Extreme receiver and logged using HYPACK, Inc. navigation software (www.hypack.com). RTK navigation was not incorporated to any of the geophysical systems during data acquisition. These data were stored in order to post-process the RTK navigation to provide improved vertical and horizontal accuracies for the swath bathymetric data. RTK provides accuracies on the order of 10s of centimeters ().

No additional checks or corrections have been made to these files. Completeness_Report: These files represent all the Differential GPS and real-time kinematic (RTK) navigation recorded by the HYPACK software during USGS cruise 08016 within the St. Clair River between Michigan and Ontario, Canada, 2008. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: A DGPS antenna, connected to an Ashtech Z-Xtreme receiver, was attached at the center of the rigid horizontal pole used to mount the Octopus F180R Attitude and Positioning system antennas. The DGPS navigation was used to record horizontal position during data acquisition. Vertical_Positional_Accuracy: Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: DGPS navigation was used to record horizontal and vertical position (x,y,z) of bathymetric soundings during data acquisition aboard the USGS R/V Rafael. An additional DGPS antenna, connected to an Ashtech Z-Xtreme receiver, was attached at the center of the rigid horizontal pole used to mount the Octopus F180R Attitude and Positioning system antennas. Real Time Kinematic GPS (RTK-GPS) corrections were applied to the Ashtech Z-Xtreme navigation data during post-processing in order to provide sub-meter vertical accuracy for bathymetric soundings. Fort Gratiot, MI, a Continuously Operating Reference Station (CORS) (http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/CORS/), was used as the reference station for the RTK-GPS corrections. A rover RTK-GPS station was established at the tidal benchmark at the U.S. Coast Guard Base at Port Huron in order to determine the offset between North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88) (vertical datum referenced at the CORS site) and the International Great Lakes Datum 1985 (IGLD 85) referenced at the tidal benchmark. The following offsets were applied to the shipboard DGPS data during post-processing: vertical offset between NAVD 88 and IGLD 85, the measured distance between the DGPS antenna and SWATHplus transducer, and the depth of the transducer below the water line. The resulting values were applied to the bathymetric soundings during processing to provide a measure of depth relative to IGLD 85.

File name convention is LLL_TTTT.DDD, where LLL is the HYPACK line number, TTTT is the 24 hour time (UTC) for the beginning of the file, and DDD is the Julian day. Times in the file were recorded in UTC (Coordinate Universal Time). Process_Step: Process_Description: Raw HYPACK navigation files were transferred from the navigation acquisition computer to a Macintosh laptop for accessibility and archival. The raw HYPACK navigation files are stored in separate directories indicating the acquisition Julian Day (JD150 through JD156), corresponding to May 29, 2008 - June 2, 2008. The filenames in each folder are in the format of linenumber_starttime.julianday. For example, filename 017_1455.150 represents HYPACK line number 017, start time 1455 and Julian Day 150.

This is necessary to enable the metadata to be successfully harvested for various data catalogs. In some cases, this meant adding text "Information unavailable" or "Information unavailable from original metadata" for those required fields that were left blank. Other minor edits were probably performed (title, publisher, publication place, etc.). The link to the data in the Distribution_Information section had to be fixed. Attempted to modify http to https where appropriate. Reordered the links in the identification section to have a landing page link as the first link. The source information was incomplete and had to be modified to meet the standard. The distribution format name was modified in an attempt to be more consistent with other metadata files of the same data format. The metadata date (but not the metadata creator) was edited to reflect the date of these changes. The metadata available from a harvester may supersede metadata bundled within a download file. Compare the metadata dates to determine which metadata file is most recent.
