  17. Title: Reconstruction of North American Drainage Basins and River Discharge Since the Last Glacial Maximum)

    Contributors:

    Summary: Drainage basins and river discharges since the Last Glacial Maximum; released along with the article "Reconstruction of North American drainage basins and river discharge since the Last Glacial Maximum" to appear in the journal "Earth Surface Dynamics". Changes in major drainage basins and river discharges across North American since the Last Glacial Maximum from calculations based on five different reconstructions of past ice sheets and glacial-isostatic adjustment. River discharges are stored as Numpy binary files. Drainage basins are stored as shapefiles. Images and videos are available for each ice-sheet and glaical-isostatic adjustment model tested. These images show past topography and sea level, drainage basin extents as black lines, rivers with local flow greater than 1000 cubic meters per second as blue lines, and the footprint of the ice-sheet as a semitransparent light-colored region. Ages are in the folder and file names for the drainage basins and the images, and take the form, "0XXXXX', where this is the number of years before present (i.e. before 1950) that the rivers of North America are simulated to be structured as shown.

  18. Title: Clowns of America, International Membership Point Shapefile (anonymized)

    Contributors:

    Summary: This point shapefile was created from the Clowns of America International Membership Database (anonymized) obtained in 2007 from Clowns of America, International, for use in teaching. It was created by geocoding the ZipCode field of the original table, using OpenRefine and the Geonames.org PostalCodes API. Attributes include those from the original data table ('City', 'ZipCode', 'Clown_Name', and 'Country'), as well attributes added during the geocoding process ('admname1','adm1','adm2','placname','longitude','latitude') and an attribute 'Clown-Na_1' which represents the values in the 'Clown_Name' attribute field after a "Cluster and Edit" operation, performed in OpenRefine to collapse values so that "Co Co" or "Co-Co" both are clustered and edited to become "CoCo" for use in name frequency analysis. This layer is intended to be used for teaching and instruction at Stanford's Geospatial Center. Maples, Stacey D. (2015). Clowns of America, International Membership Point Shapefile (anonymized).
