| Beach topography of the Columbia River littoral cell, Washington and Oregon, 2020 | Radio (base) | This portion of the USGS data release presents topography data collected during surveys performed in the Columbia River littoral cell, Washington and Oregon, in 2020 (USGS Field Activity Number 2020-622-FA). Topographic profiles were collected by walking along survey lines with global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receivers mounted on backpacks. | Andrew Stevens |
| Nearshore bathymetry of the Columbia River littoral cell, Washington and Oregon, 2020 | Waverunners | This portion of the USGS data release presents bathymetry data collected during surveys performed in the Columbia River littoral cell, Washington and Oregon, in 2020 (USGS Field Activity Number 2020-622-FA). Bathymetry data were collected using four personal watercraft (PWCs) equipped with single-beam sonar systems and global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receivers. | Andrew Stevens |
