To examine the hydrologic, land cover, and seasonal patterns of waterborne pathogens (i.e. protozoa (2), pathogenic bacteria (4) human viruses, (8) and bovine viruses (8)) eight rivers were monitored in the Great Lakes Basin over 29 months from February 2011 to June 2013. Sampling locations represented a wide variety of land cover classes from urban to agriculture to forest. A custom automated pathogen sampler was deployed at eight sampling locations which provided unattended, flow-weighted, large-volume (120–1630&nbsp;L) sampling. Human and bovine viruses and pathogenic bacteria were detected by real-time qPCR in 16%, 14%, and 1.4% of 290 samples collected while protozoa were never detected. The most frequently detected pathogens were: bovine polyomavirus (11%), and human adenovirus C, D, F (9%). Human and bovine viruses were present in 16.9% and 14.8% of runoff-event samples (n&nbsp;=&nbsp;189) resulting from precipitation and snowmelt, and 13.9% and 12.9% of low-flow samples (n&nbsp;=&nbsp;101), respectively, indicating multiple delivery mechanisms could be influential. Data indicated human and bovine virus prevalence was different depending on land cover within the watershed. Occurrence, concentration, and flux of human viruses were greatest in samples from the three sampling locations with greater than 25% urban influence than those with less than 25% urban influence. Similarly, occurrence, concentration, and flux of bovine viruses were greatest in samples from the two sampling locations with greater than 50 cattle/km</span><sup>2</sup><span> than those with less than 50 cattle/km</span><sup>2</sup><span>. In seasonal analysis, human and bovine viruses occurred more frequently in spring and winter seasons than during the fall and summer. Concentration, occurrence, and flux in the context of hydrologic condition, seasonality, and land use must be considered for each watershed individually to develop effective watershed management strategies for pathogen reduction.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"International Water Association","publisherLocation":"Oxford","doi":"10.1016/j.watres.2017.01.060","usgsCitation":"Lenaker, P.L., Corsi, S., Borchardt, M.A., Spencer, S.K., Baldwin, A.K., and Lutz, M.A., 2017, Hydrologic, land cover, and seasonal patterns of waterborne pathogens in Great Lakes tributaries: Water Research, v. 113, p. 11-21, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.watres.2017.01.060.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"11","endPage":"21","ipdsId":"IP-079348","costCenters":[{"id":677,"text":"Wisconsin Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":470067,"rank":0,"type":{"id":41,"text":"Open Access External Repository Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.watres.2017.01.060","text":"External Repository"},{"id":335540,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","otherGeospatial":"Great Lakes tributaries","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -89.97802734375,\n              39.825413103424786\n            ],\n            [\n              -81.5625,\n              39.825413103424786\n            ],\n            [\n              -81.5625,\n              47.27922900257082\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.97802734375,\n              47.27922900257082\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.97802734375,\n              39.825413103424786\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"113","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":6,"text":"Columbus PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"58a576bae4b057081a24ed16","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Lenaker, Peter L. 0000-0002-9469-6285 plenaker@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9469-6285","contributorId":5572,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lenaker","given":"Peter","email":"plenaker@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":37947,"text":"Upper Midwest Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":677,"text":"Wisconsin Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":669263,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Corsi, Steven R. 0000-0003-0583-5536 srcorsi@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0583-5536","contributorId":172002,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Corsi","given":"Steven R.","email":"srcorsi@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":37947,"text":"Upper Midwest Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":669264,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Borchardt, Mark A. 0000-0002-6471-2627","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6471-2627","contributorId":151033,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Borchardt","given":"Mark","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":6684,"text":"USDA Forest Service, Southern Research Station, Aiken, SC","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":669265,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Spencer, Susan K.","contributorId":181738,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Spencer","given":"Susan","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":669266,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Baldwin, Austin K. 0000-0002-6027-3823 akbaldwi@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6027-3823","contributorId":4515,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Baldwin","given":"Austin","email":"akbaldwi@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[{"id":677,"text":"Wisconsin Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":343,"text":"Idaho Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":669268,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Lutz, Michelle A. malutz@usgs.gov","contributorId":131020,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lutz","given":"Michelle","email":"malutz@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":677,"text":"Wisconsin Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":669267,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

The extent to which root traits mediate responses to aridity, and how they are coordinated with leaf traits, remains unclear. Here, we measured variation in root tissue density (RTD), specific root length (SRL), specific leaf area (SLA), and seed size within and among thirty perennial grass communities distributed along an aridity gradient spanning 190–540&nbsp;mm of climatic water deficit (potential minus actual evapotranspiration). We tested the hypotheses that traits exhibited coordinated variation (1) among species, as well as (2) among communities varying in aridity, and (3) functional diversity within communities declines with increasing aridity, consistent with the “stress-dominance” hypothesis. Across communities, SLA and RTD exhibited a coordinated response to aridity, shifting toward more conservative (lower SLA, higher RTD) functional strategies with increasing aridity. The response of SRL to aridity was more idiosyncratic and was independent of variation in SLA and RTD. Contrary to the stress-dominance hypothesis, the diversity of SRL values within communities increased with aridity, while none of the other traits exhibited significant diversity responses. These results are consistent with other studies that have found SRL to be independent of an SLA–RTD axis of functional variation and suggest that the dynamic nature of soil moisture in arid environments may facilitate a wider array of resource capture strategies associated with variation in SRL.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s11258-016-0696-4","usgsCitation":"Butterfield, B.J., Bradford, J.B., Munson, S.M., and Gremer, J., 2017, Aridity increases below-ground niche breadth in grass communities: Plant Ecology, v. 218, no. 4, p. 385-394, https://doi.org/10.1007/s11258-016-0696-4.","productDescription":"9 p.","startPage":"385","endPage":"394","ipdsId":"IP-081529","costCenters":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":335626,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"218","issue":"4","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":14,"text":"Menlo Park PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-01-06","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"58a576b9e4b057081a24ed10","chorus":{"doi":"10.1007/s11258-016-0696-4","url":"http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11258-016-0696-4","publisher":"Springer Nature","authors":"Butterfield Bradley J., Bradford John B., Munson Seth M., Gremer Jennifer R.","journalName":"Plant Ecology","publicationDate":"1/6/2017","auditedOn":"2/15/2017","publiclyAccessibleDate":"1/6/2017"},"contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Butterfield, Bradley J. 0000-0003-0974-9811","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0974-9811","contributorId":167009,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Butterfield","given":"Bradley","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":24591,"text":"Merriam-Powell Center for Environmental Research and Department of Biological Sciences, Northern Arizona University, Flagstaff, AZ, USA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":669369,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Bradford, John B. 0000-0001-9257-6303 jbradford@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9257-6303","contributorId":611,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bradford","given":"John","email":"jbradford@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":669367,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Munson, Seth M. 0000-0002-2736-6374 smunson@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2736-6374","contributorId":1334,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Munson","given":"Seth","email":"smunson@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":411,"text":"National Climate Change and Wildlife Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":669368,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Gremer, Jennifer R.","contributorId":181751,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Gremer","given":"Jennifer R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":669370,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

ARA in all BSCs increased with T until saturation occurred between 15 and 20°C, and declined at 30–35°C. Culture studies using cyanobacteria isolated from these crusts indicated that the saturating effect was traceable to their inability to grow well diazotrophically within the high temperature range. Below saturation, temperature response was exponential, with Q</span><sub>10</sub><span> significantly different in the two areas (~ 5 for Great Basin BSCs; 2–3 for Chihuahuan BSCs), but similar between the two successional stages. However, in contrast to ARA, AO showed a steady increase to 30–35°C in Great Basin, and Chihuhuan BSCs showed no inhibition at any tested temperature. The T response of AO also differed significantly between Great Basin (Q</span><sub>10</sub><span> of 4.5–4.8) and Chihuahuan (Q</span><sub>10</sub><span> of 2.4–2.6) BSCs, but not between successional stages. Response of ARA rates to T did not differ from that of AO in either desert. Thus, while both processes scaled to T in unison until 20°C, they separated to an increasing degree at higher temperature. As future warming is likely to occur in the regions where BSCs are often the dominant living cover, this predicted decoupling is expected to result in higher proportion of nitrates in soil relative to ammonium. As nitrate is more easily lost as leachate or to be reduced to gaseous forms, this could mean a depletion of soil N over large landscapes globally.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Public Library of Science","doi":"10.1371/journal.pone.0164932","usgsCitation":"Zhou, X., Smith, H.J., Giraldo Silva, A., Belnap, J., and Garcia-Pichel, F., 2017, Differential responses of dinitrogen fixation, diazotrophic cyanobacteria and ammonia oxidation reveal a potential warming-induced imbalance of the N-cycle in biological soil crusts: PLoS ONE, v. 11, no. 10, e0164932; 15 p., https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0164932.","productDescription":"e0164932; 15 p.","ipdsId":"IP-068683","costCenters":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":470068,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0164932","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":335655,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"11","issue":"10","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":14,"text":"Menlo Park PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2016-10-24","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"58a576b7e4b057081a24ed0a","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Zhou, Xiaobing","contributorId":181757,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Zhou","given":"Xiaobing","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":669452,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Smith, Hilda J. 0000-0001-5775-1401 hsmith@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5775-1401","contributorId":4469,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Smith","given":"Hilda","email":"hsmith@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":669453,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Giraldo Silva, Ana","contributorId":181758,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Giraldo Silva","given":"Ana","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":669454,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Belnap, Jayne 0000-0001-7471-2279 jayne_belnap@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7471-2279","contributorId":1332,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Belnap","given":"Jayne","email":"jayne_belnap@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":669451,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Garcia-Pichel, Ferran","contributorId":166779,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Garcia-Pichel","given":"Ferran","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":24511,"text":"Arizona State University, Tempe AZ USA 85287","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":669455,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

The existence of many animal species depends on the existence of sagebrush steppe habitat. The greater sage-grouse (<i>Centrocercus urophasianus</i>) depends on large landscapes of intact habitat of sagebrush and perennial grasses for their existence. In addition, other sagebrush-obligate animals have similar requirements and restoration of landscapes for greater sage-grouse also will benefit these animals. Once sagebrush lands are degraded, they may require restoration actions to make those lands viable habitat for supporting sagebrush-obligate animals, livestock, and wild horses, and to provide ecosystem services for humans now and for future generations.</p><p class=\"p1\">When a decision is made on where restoration treatments should be applied, there are a number of site-specific decisions managers face before selecting the appropriate type of restoration.

In response, we conducted comparative deployments with three unique, inter-agency, survey gill nets used to assess walleye </span><i>Sander vitreus</i><span> in Lake Erie. We used an information-theoretic approach with Akaike’s second-order information criterion (AIC</span><sub>c</sub><span>) to evaluate linear mixed models of walleye catch as a function of net type (multifilament and two types of monofilament netting), mesh size (categorical), Secchi depth, temperature, water depth, catch of ancillary species, and interactions among selected variables. The model with the greatest weight of evidence showed that walleye catches were positively associated with potential prey and intra-guild predators and negatively associated with water depth and temperature. In addition, the multifilament net had higher average walleye catches than either of the two monofilament nets. Results from this study both help inform decisions about proposed gear changes to stock assessment surveys in Lake Erie, and advance our understanding of how multispecies associations explain variation in gill net catches. Of broader interest to fishery-independent gill net studies, effects of abiotic variables and ancillary species on focal specie’s catch rates were small in comparison with net characteristics of mesh size or twine type.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.fishres.2016.12.004","usgsCitation":"Kraus, R.T., Vandergoot, C., Kocovsky, P.M., Rogers, M.W., Cook, H.,

We examined inter-annual variation in recruitment among lake whitefish (</span><i>Coregonus clupeaformis</i><span>) populations in lakes Huron, Michigan and Superior using fishery-dependent and -independent data from 1971 to 2014. Relative year-class strength (RYCS) was calculated from catch-curve residuals for each year class across multiple sampling years. Pairwise comparison of RYCS among datasets revealed no significant associations either within or between lakes, suggesting that recruitment of lake whitefish is spatially asynchronous. There was no consistent correlation between pairwise agreement and the distance between datasets, and models to estimate the spatial scale of recruitment synchrony did not fit well to these data. This suggests that inter-annual recruitment variation of lake whitefish is asynchronous across broad spatial scales in the Great Lakes. While our method primarily evaluated year-to-year recruitment variation, it is plausible that recruitment of lake whitefish varies at coarser temporal scales (e.g. decadal). Nonetheless, our findings differ from research on some other </span><i>Coregonus</i><span> species and suggest that local biotic or density-dependent factors may contribute strongly to lake whitefish recruitment rather than inter-annual variability in broad-scale abiotic factors.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.jglr.2017.01.007","usgsCitation":"Zischke, M.T., Bunnell, D., Troy, C.D., Berglund, E.K., Caroffino, D.C., Ebener, M.P., He, J.X., Sitar, S.P., and Hook, T.O., 2017, Asynchrony in the inter-annual recruitment of lake whitefish <i>Coregonus clupeaformis</i> in the Great Lakes region: Journal of Great Lakes Research, v. 43, no. 2, p. 359-369, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jglr.2017.01.007.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"359","endPage":"369","ipdsId":"IP-070793","costCenters":[{"id":324,"text":"Great Lakes Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":470073,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jglr.2017.01.007","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":335328,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Canada, United States","otherGeospatial":"Great Lakes","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -89.82421875,\n              41.705728515237524\n            ],\n            [\n              -79.6728515625,\n              41.705728515237524\n            ],\n            [\n              -79.6728515625,\n              48.951366470947725\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.82421875,\n              48.951366470947725\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.82421875,\n              41.705728515237524\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"43","issue":"2","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":6,"text":"Columbus PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"58a4252be4b0c825128ad3ec","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Zischke, Mitchell T.","contributorId":181525,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Zischke","given":"Mitchell","email":"","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":668489,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Bunnell, David B. 0000-0003-3521-7747 dbunnell@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3521-7747","contributorId":169859,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bunnell","given":"David B.","email":"dbunnell@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":324,"text":"Great Lakes Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":668488,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Troy, Cary D.","contributorId":169861,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Troy","given":"Cary","email":"","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[{"id":13186,"text":"Purdue University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":668490,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Berglund, Eric K.","contributorId":115926,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Berglund","given":"Eric","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":668491,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Caroffino, David C.","contributorId":181527,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Caroffino","given":"David","email":"","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":668492,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Ebener, Mark P.","contributorId":25099,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Ebener","given":"Mark","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":12957,"text":"Chippewa Ottawa Resource Authority","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":668493,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"He, Ji X.","contributorId":181528,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"He","given":"Ji","email":"","middleInitial":"X.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":668494,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Sitar, Shawn P.","contributorId":181529,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Sitar","given":"Shawn","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":668495,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8},{"text":"Hook, Tomas O.","contributorId":150480,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hook","given":"Tomas","email":"","middleInitial":"O.","affiliations":[{"id":13186,"text":"Purdue University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":668496,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":9}]}}

Color figures are now included, which greatly aids in reading several of the papers, and is especially helpful in visualizing graphs as in the paper on symbolic computation of nonlinear wave resonance (Tobisch et al.). A note on terminology: extreme waves in this volume broadly encompass different types of waves, including deep-water and shallow-water rogue waves (which are alternatively termed freak waves), and internal waves. One new paper on tsunamis (Viroulet et al.) is now included in the second edition of this volume. Throughout the book, the reader will find a combination of laboratory, theoretical, and statistical/empirical treatment necessary for the complete examination of this subject.

While drylands as a whole are expected to increase in extent and aridity in coming decades, temperature and precipitation forecasts vary by latitude and geographic region suggesting different trajectories for tropical, subtropical, and temperate drylands. Uncertainty in the future of tropical and subtropical drylands is well constrained, whereas soil moisture and ecological droughts, which drive vegetation productivity and composition, remain poorly understood in temperate drylands. Here we show that, over the twenty first century, temperate drylands may contract by a third, primarily converting to subtropical drylands, and that deep soil layers could be increasingly dry during the growing season. These changes imply major shifts in vegetation and ecosystem service delivery. Our results illustrate the importance of appropriate drought measures and, as a global study that focuses on temperate drylands, highlight a distinct fate for these highly populated areas.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Nature Publishing Group","doi":"10.1038/ncomms14196","usgsCitation":"Schlaepfer, D., Bradford, J.B., Lauenroth, W.K., Munson, S.M., Tietjen, B., Hall, S.A., Wilson, S.D., Duniway, M.C., Jia, G., Pyke, D.A., Lkhagva, A., and Jamiyansharav, K., 2017, Climate change reduces extent of temperate drylands and intensifies drought in deep soils: Nature Communications, no. 8, Article 14196; 9 p., https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms14196.","productDescription":"Article 14196; 9 p.","ipdsId":"IP-074335","costCenters":[{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true},{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":29789,"text":"John Wesley Powell Center for Analysis and Synthesis","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":461741,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms14196","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":335322,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"issue":"8","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":14,"text":"Menlo Park PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-01-31","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"58a4252ce4b0c825128ad3ee","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Schlaepfer, Daniel R.","contributorId":105189,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Schlaepfer","given":"Daniel R.","affiliations":[{"id":7098,"text":"University of Wyoming, Department of Botany, 1000 E.

The report (1) quantifies the groundwater resources of the Canadian River alluvial aquifer by developing a conceptual model, (2) summarizes the general water quality of the Canadian River alluvial aquifer groundwater by using data collected during August and September 2013, (3) evaluates the effects of estimated equal proportionate share (EPS) on aquifer storage and streamflow for time periods of 20, 40, and 50 years into the future by using numerical groundwater-flow models, and (4) evaluates the effects of present-day groundwater pumping over a 50-year period and sustained hypothetical drought conditions over a 10-year period on stream base flow and groundwater in storage by using numerical flow models. The Canadian River alluvial aquifer is a Quaternary-age alluvial and terrace unit consisting of beds of clay, silt, sand, and fine gravel sediments unconformably overlying Tertiary-, Permian-, and Pennsylvanian-age sedimentary rocks. For groundwater-flow modeling purposes, the Canadian River was divided into Reach I, extending from the Texas border to the Canadian River at the Bridgeport, Okla., streamgage (07228500), and Reach II, extending downstream from the Canadian River at the Bridgeport, Okla., streamgage (07228500), to the confluence of the river with Eufaula Lake. The Canadian River alluvial aquifer spans multiple climate divisions, ranging from semiarid in the west to humid subtropical in the east. The average annual precipitation in the study area from 1896 to 2014 was 34.4&nbsp;inches per year (in/yr).</p><p>A hydrogeologic framework of the Canadian River alluvial aquifer was developed that includes the areal and vertical extent of the aquifer and the distribution, texture variability, and hydraulic properties of aquifer materials. The aquifer areal extent ranged from less than 0.2 to <br>8.5 miles wide. The maximum aquifer thickness was 120 feet (ft), and the average aquifer thickness was 50 ft. Average horizontal hydraulic conductivity for the Canadian River alluvial aquifer was calculated to be 39 feet per day, and the maximum horizontal hydraulic conductivity was calculated to be 100 feet per day.</p><p>Recharge rates to the Canadian River alluvial aquifer were estimated by using a soil-water-balance code to estimate the spatial distribution of groundwater recharge and a water-table fluctuation method to estimate localized recharge rates. By using daily precipitation and temperature data from 39&nbsp;climate stations, recharge was estimated to average 3.4&nbsp;in/yr, which corresponds to 8.7 percent of precipitation as recharge for the Canadian River alluvial aquifer from 1981 to 2013. The water-table fluctuation method was used at one site where continuous water-level observation data were available to estimate the percentage of precipitation that becomes groundwater recharge. Estimated annual recharge at that site was 9.7 in/yr during 2014.</p><p>Groundwater flow in the Canadian River alluvial aquifer was identified and quantified by a conceptual flow model for the period 1981–2013. Inflows to the Canadian River alluvial aquifer include recharge to the water table from precipitation, lateral flow from the surrounding bedrock, and flow from the Canadian River, whereas outflows include flow to the Canadian River (base-flow gain), evapotranspiration, and groundwater use. Total annual recharge inflows estimated by the soil-water-balance code were multiplied by the area of each reach and then averaged over the simulated period to produce an annual average of 28,919 acre-feet per year (acre-ft/yr) for Reach I and 82,006 acre-ft/yr for Reach II. Stream base flow to the Canadian River was estimated to be the largest outflow of groundwater from the aquifer, measured at four streamgages, along with evapotranspiration and groundwater use, which were relatively minor discharge components.</p><p>Objectives for the numerical groundwater-flow models included simulating groundwater flow in the Canadian River alluvial aquifer from 1981 to 2013 to address groundwater use and drought scenarios, including calculation of the EPS pumping rates. The EPS for the alluvial and terrace aquifers is defined by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board as the amount of fresh water that each landowner is allowed per year per acre of owned land to maintain a saturated thickness of at least 5 ft in at least 50 percent of the overlying land of the groundwater basin for a minimum of 20 years.</p><p>The groundwater-flow models were calibrated to water-table altitude observations, streamgage base flows, and base-flow gain to the Canadian River. The Reach I water-table altitude observation root-mean-square error was 6.1 ft, and 75 percent of residuals were within ±6.7 ft of observed measurements. The average simulated stream base-flow residual at the Bridgeport streamgage (07228500) was 8.8&nbsp;cubic feet per second (ft<sup><span>3</span></sup>/s), and 75 percent of residuals were within ±30 ft<sup><span>3</span></sup>/s of observed measurements. Simulated base-flow gain in Reach I was 8.8 ft<sup><span>3</span></sup>/s lower than estimated base-flow gain. The Reach II water-table altitude observation root-mean-square error was 4 ft, and 75 percent of residuals were within ±4.3 ft of the observations. The average simulated stream base-flow residual in Reach II was between 35 and 132&nbsp;ft<sup><span>3</span></sup>/s. The average simulated base-flow gain residual in Reach II was between 11.3 and 61.1 ft<sup><span>3</span></sup>/s.</p><p>Several future predictive scenarios were run, including estimating the EPS pumping rate for 20-, 40-, and 50-year life of basin scenarios, determining the effects of current groundwater use over a 50-year period into the future, and evaluating the effects of a sustained drought on water availability for both reaches. The EPS pumping rate was determined to be 1.35 acre-feet per acre per year ([acre-ft/acre]/yr) in Reach I and 3.08 (acre-ft/acre)/yr in Reach II for a 20-year period. For the 40- and 50-year periods, the EPS rate was determined to be <br>1.34 (acre-ft/acre)/yr in Reach I and 3.08 (acre-ft/acre)/yr in Reach II. Storage changes decreased in tandem with simulated groundwater pumping and were minimal after the first 15 simulated years for Reach I and the first 8 simulated years for Reach II.</p><p>Groundwater pumping at year 2013 rates for a period of 50 years resulted in a 0.2-percent decrease in groundwater-storage volumes in Reach I and a 0.6-percent decrease in the groundwater-storage volumes in Reach II. The small changes in storage are due to groundwater use by pumping, which composes a small percentage of the total groundwater-flow model budgets for Reaches I and II.</p><p>A sustained drought scenario was used to evaluate the effects of a hypothetical 10-year drought on water availability. A 10-year period was chosen where the effects of drought conditions would be simulated by decreasing recharge by 75&nbsp;percent. In Reach I, average simulated stream base flow at the Bridgeport streamgage (07228500) decreased by 58 percent during the hypothetical 10-year drought compared to average simulated stream base flow during the nondrought period. In Reach II, average simulated stream base flows at the Purcell streamgage (07229200) and Calvin streamgage (07231500) decreased by 64 percent and 54 percent, respectively. In Reach I, the groundwater-storage drought scenario resulted in a storage decline of 30 thousand acre-feet, or an average decline in the water table of <br>1.2 ft. In Reach II, the groundwater-storage drought scenario resulted in a storage decline of 71&nbsp;thousand acre-feet, or an average decline in the water table of 2.0 ft.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sir20165180","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the Oklahoma Water

Estimating the degree of ecosystem response attributable specifically to eradication of exotic herbivores versus restoration of native herbivores is often difficult and is complicated by concurrent temporal changes in other factors, especially climate. We investigated the interactive impacts of native mega-herbivores (giant tortoises) and the eradication of large alien herbivores (goats) on vegetation productivity across the Galapagos Archipelago. We examined archipelago-wide patterns of Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) as a proxy for vegetation productivity between 2001 and 2015 and evaluated how goat and historical and current tortoise occurrence influenced productivity. We used a breakpoint analysis to detect change in trends in productivity from five targeted areas following goat eradication. We found a positive association between tortoise occurrence and vegetation productivity and a negative association with goat occurrence. We also documented an increase in plant productivity following goat removal with recovery higher in moister regions than in arid region, potentially indicating an alternate stable state has been created in the latter. Climate variation also contributed to the detected improvement in productivity following goat eradication, sometimes obscuring the effect of eradication but more usually magnifying it by up to 300%. Our work offers perspectives regarding the effectiveness and outcomes of eradicating introduced herbivores and re-introducing native herbivores, and the merits of staging them simultaneously in order to restore critical ecosystem processes such as vegetation productivity.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","publisherLocation":"Oxford","doi":"10.1016/j.biocon.2017.02.015","usgsCitation":"Bastille-Rousseau, G., Gibbs, J.P., Campbell,

Empirical statistical models and process-based simulations agree almost universally. The key relationship for this unanimity, observed at multiple spatial and temporal scales, is between drought and fire. Predictive models often focus on ecosystems in which this relationship appears to be particularly strong, such as mesic and arid forests and shrublands with substantial biomass such as chaparral. We examine the drought–fire relationship, specifically the correlations between water-balance deficit and annual area burned, across the full gradient of deficit in the western USA, from temperate rainforest to desert. In the middle of this gradient, conditional on vegetation (fuels), correlations are strong, but outside this range the equivalence hotter and drier equals more fire either breaks down or is contingent on other factors such as previous-year climate. This suggests that the regional drought–fire dynamic will not be stationary in future climate, nor will other more complex contingencies associated with the variation in fire extent. Predictions of future wildfire area therefore need to consider not only vegetation changes, as some dynamic vegetation models now do, but also potential changes in the drought–fire dynamic that will ensue in a warming climate.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Ecological Society of America","publisherLocation":"Washington, D.C.","doi":"10.1002/eap.1420","usgsCitation":"McKenzie, D.,

Here we report ChemCam elemental composition of a diverse assemblage of post-depositional features embedded in, or cross-cutting, the host rock. ChemCam results demonstrate their compositional diversity, especially compared to the surrounding host rock: (i) Dendritic aggregates and relief enhanced features, characterized by a magnesium enhancement and sulfur detection, and interpreted as Mg-sulfates; (ii) A localized observation that displays iron enrichment associated with sulfur, interpreted as Fe-sulfate; (iii) Dark raised ridges with varying Mg- and Ca-enriched compositions compared to host rock; (iv) Several dark-toned veins with calcium enhancement associated with fluorine detection, interpreted as fluorite veins. (v) Light-toned veins with enhanced calcium associated with sulfur detection, and interpreted as Ca-sulfates. The diversity of the Pahrump Hills diagenetic assemblage suggests a complex post-depositional history for fine-grained sediments for which the origin has been interpreted as fluvial and lacustrine. Assessment of the spatial and relative temporal distribution of these features shows that the Mg-sulfate features are predominant in the lower part of the section, suggesting local modification of the sediments by early diagenetic fluids. In contrast, light-toned Ca-sulfate veins occur in the whole section and cross-cut all other features. A relatively late stage shift in geochemical conditions could explain this observation. The Pahrump Hills diagenetic features have no equivalent compared to targets analyzed in other locations at Gale crater. Only the light-toned Ca-sulfate veins are present elsewhere, along Curiosity's path, suggesting they formed through a common late-stage process that occurred at over a broad area.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"American Astronomical Society.

The SuperCam instrument on the Mars 2020 rover, as well as other LIBS instruments developed for geochemical analysis on Earth or other planets, will face the same challenge. Consequently, part of the ChemCam science team has focused on the development of improved multivariate analysis calibrations methods. Developing a single regression model capable of accurately determining the composition of very different target materials is difficult because the response of an element’s emission lines in LIBS spectra can vary with the concentration of other elements. We demonstrate a conceptually simple “sub-model” method for improving the accuracy of quantitative LIBS analysis of diverse target materials. The method is based on training several regression models on sets of targets with limited composition ranges and then “blending” these “sub-models” into a single final result. Tests of the sub-model method show improvement in test set root mean squared error of prediction (RMSEP) for almost all cases. The sub-model method, using partial least squares regression (PLS), is being used as part of the current ChemCam quantitative calibration, but the sub-model method is applicable to any multivariate regression method and may yield similar improvements.","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","publisherLocation":"Amsterdam","doi":"10.1016/j.sab.2016.12.002","usgsCitation":"Anderson, R.B., Clegg, S.M., Frydenvang, J., Wiens, R.C., McLennan, S.M., Morris, R., Ehlmann, B.L., and Dyar, M., 2017, Improved accuracy in quantitative laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy using sub-models: Spectrochimica Acta Part B: Atomic Spectroscopy, v. 129, p. 49-57, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.sab.2016.12.002.","productDescription":"9 p.","startPage":"49","endPage":"57","ipdsId":"IP-070366","costCenters":[{"id":131,"text":"Astrogeology Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":470074,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://www.osti.gov/biblio/1693629","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":335233,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"129","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":14,"text":"Menlo Park PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"58a2d3afe4b0c825128699ed","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Anderson, Ryan B. 0000-0003-4465-2871 rbanderson@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4465-2871","contributorId":170054,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Anderson","given":"Ryan","email":"rbanderson@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[{"id":131,"text":"Astrogeology Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":668374,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Clegg, Samuel M.","contributorId":23460,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Clegg","given":"Samuel","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":13447,"text":"Los Alamos National Laboratory","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":668413,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Frydenvang, Jens","contributorId":173225,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Frydenvang","given":"Jens","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":27196,"text":"LANL","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":668414,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Wiens, Roger C.","contributorId":140330,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Wiens","given":"Roger","email":"","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":13447,"text":"Los Alamos National Laboratory","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":668415,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"McLennan, Scott M.","contributorId":95388,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"McLennan","given":"Scott","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":668416,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Morris, Richard V.","contributorId":167513,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Morris","given":"Richard V.","affiliations":[{"id":7049,"text":"NASA Goddard Space Flight Center","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":668417,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Ehlmann, Bethany L. 0000-0002-2745-3240","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2745-3240","contributorId":147154,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Ehlmann","given":"Bethany","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":7218,"text":"California Institute of Technology","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":668418,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Dyar, M.

The reservoir consists of two lakes connected by an equilibrium channel. The southern lake (Shawnee City Lake Number 1) was impounded in 1935, and the northern lake (Shawnee City Lake Number 2) was impounded in 1960. Shawnee Reservoir serves as a municipal water supply, and water is transferred about 9 miles by gravity to a water treatment plant in Shawnee, Oklahoma. Secondary uses of the reservoir are for recreation, fish and wildlife habitat, and flood control. Shawnee Reservoir has a normal-pool elevation of 1,069.0 feet (ft) above North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). The auxiliary spillway, which defines the flood-pool elevation, is at an elevation of 1,075.0 ft.</p><p>The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the City of Shawnee, has operated a real-time stage (water-surface elevation) gage (USGS station 07241600) at Shawnee Reservoir since 2006. For the period of record ending in 2016, this gage recorded a maximum stage of 1,078.1 ft on May 24, 2015, and a minimum stage of 1,059.1 ft on April 10–11, 2007. This gage did not report reservoir storage prior to this report (2016) because a sufficiently detailed and thoroughly documented bathymetric (reservoir-bottom elevation) survey and corresponding stage-storage relation had not been published. A 2011 bathymetric survey with contours delineated at 5-foot intervals was published in Oklahoma Water Resources Board (2016), but that publication did not include a stage-storage relation table. The USGS, in cooperation with the City of Shawnee, performed a bathymetric survey of Shawnee Reservoir in 2016 and released the bathymetric-survey data in 2017. The purposes of the bathymetric survey were to (1) develop a detailed bathymetric map of the reservoir and (2) determine the relations between stage and reservoir storage capacity and between stage and reservoir surface area. The bathymetric map may serve as a baseline to which temporal changes in storage capacity, due to sedimentation and other factors, can be compared. The stage-storage relation may be used in the reporting of real-time Shawnee Reservoir storage capacity at USGS station 07241600 to support water-resource management decisions by the City of Shawnee.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sim3374","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the City of Shawnee","usgsCitation":"Ashworth, C.E., Smith, S.J., and Smith, K.A., 2017, Bathymetry and capacity of Shawnee Reservoir, Oklahoma, 2016: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Map 3374, 1 sheet, https://doi.org/10.3133/sim3374.","productDescription":"Sheet: 42.0 x 36.0 inches; Data Release","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","ipdsId":"IP-080842","costCenters":[{"id":516,"text":"Oklahoma Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":335148,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sim/3374/coverthb.jpg"},{"id":335150,"rank":3,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/F72805SC","text":"USGS Data Release","description":"USGS Data Release","linkHelpText":"Bathymetry and Capacity of Shawnee Reservoir, Oklahoma, 2016"},{"id":335149,"rank":2,"type":{"id":26,"text":"Sheet"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sim/3374/sim3374.pdf","text":"Map","size":"4.48 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"SIM 3374"}],"country":"United States","state":"Oklahoma","otherGeospatial":"Shawnee reservoir","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -97.125,\n              35.372222\n            ],\n            [\n              -97.125,\n              35.302778\n            ],\n            [\n              -97.052778,\n              35.302778\n            ],\n            [\n              -97.052778,\n              35.372222\n            ],\n            [\n              -97.125,\n              35.372222\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","contact":"<p>Director, Oklahoma Water Science Center<br>U.S. Geological Survey <br>202 NW 66th, Bldg 7<br>Oklahoma City, OK 73116<br></p><p><a href=\"http://ok.water.usgs.gov/\" data-mce-href=\"http://ok.water.usgs.gov/\">http://ok.water.usgs.gov/</a></p>","tableOfContents":"<ul><li>Acknowledgments</li><li>Introduction<br></li><li>Methods<br></li><li>Quality Assurance<br></li><li>Results<br></li><li>Summary<br></li><li>References<br></li></ul>","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":5,"text":"Lafayette PSC"},"publishedDate":"2017-02-13","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-02-13","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"58a2d3b3e4b0c825128699fb","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Ashworth, Chad E.","contributorId":62449,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ashworth","given":"Chad E.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":659112,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Smith, S.

Stressed vegetation that is incapable of regeneration will be difficult to maintain if adults are experiencing mortality, and/or if their early life-history stages depend on disturbance. A variety of active management strategies employing disturbance are suggested, including resisting, accommodating, or directing vegetation change by manipulating management intensity and frequency. Particularly if land-use change is the main cause of vegetation stress, amelioration of these problems using management may help vegetation resist change (e.g. strategic timing of water release if a water control structure is available). Managers could direct succession by using management to push vegetation toward a new state. Despite the historical effects of management, some vegetation change will not be controllable as climates shift, and managers may have to accept some of these changes. Nevertheless, proactive measures may help managers achieve important conservation goals in the future.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Society for Ecological Restoration","publisherLocation":"Cambridge, MA","doi":"10.1111/rec.12507","usgsCitation":"Middleton, B.A., Boudell, J., and Fisichelli, N., 2017, Using management to address vegetation stress related to land-use and climate change: Restoration Ecology, v. 25, no. 3, p. 326-329, https://doi.org/10.1111/rec.12507.","productDescription":"4 p.","startPage":"326","endPage":"329","ipdsId":"IP-076897","costCenters":[{"id":17705,"text":"Wetland and Aquatic Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":335228,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"25","issue":"3","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":5,"text":"Lafayette PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-02-06","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"58a2d3b0e4b0c825128699ef","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Middleton, Beth A. 0000-0002-1220-2326 middletonb@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1220-2326","contributorId":2029,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Middleton","given":"Beth","email":"middletonb@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":17705,"text":"Wetland and Aquatic Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":668371,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Boudell, Jere","contributorId":181496,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Boudell","given":"Jere","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":668372,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Fisichelli, Nicholas","contributorId":168824,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Fisichelli","given":"Nicholas","affiliations":[{"id":25366,"text":"National Park Service, Climate Change Response Program","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":668373,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Each individual in a group likely has different measures of the costs and benefits associated with a group task, such as an aggressive attack on another group, which can alter motivation and behavior. We observed 292 inter-pack aggressive interactions in Yellowstone National Park between 1 April 1995 and 1 April 2011 (&gt;5300&nbsp;days of observation) in order to determine the role of both sexes, and the influence of pack, age, and other traits on aggression. We recorded the behaviors and characteristics of all individuals present during the interactions (n&nbsp;=&nbsp;534 individuals) and which individuals participated in each step (i.e. chase, attack, kill, flight) of the interaction. Overall, all wolves were more likely to chase rivals if they outnumbered their opponent, suggesting packs accurately assess their opponent’s size during encounters and individuals adjust their behavior based on relative pack size. Males were more likely than females to chase rival packs and gray-colored wolves were more aggressive than black-colored wolves. Male wolves and gray-colored wolves also recorded higher cortisol levels than females and black-colored wolves, indicating hormonal support for more intense aggressive behavior. Further, we found a positive correlation between male age and probability of chasing, while age-specific participation for females remained constant. Chasing behavior was influenced by the sex of lone intruders, with males more likely to chase male intruders. This difference in behavior suggests male and female wolves may have different strategies and motivations during inter-pack aggressive interactions related to gray wolf mating systems. A division of labor between pack members concerning resource and territory defense suggests selection for specific traits related to aggression is an adaptive response to intense competition between groups of conspecifics.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier B.V.","doi":"10.1016/j.beproc.2017.01.011","usgsCitation":"Cassidy, K.A., Mech, L.D., MacNulty, D., Stahler, D.R., and Smith, D., 2017, Sexually dimorphic aggression indicates male gray wolves specialize in pack defense against conspecific groups: Behavioural Processes, v. 136, p. 64-72, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.beproc.2017.01.011.","productDescription":"9 p.","startPage":"64","endPage":"72","ipdsId":"IP-074240","costCenters":[{"id":480,"text":"Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":335191,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"136","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":4,"text":"Rolla PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"589ffecce4b099f50d3e0428","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Cassidy, Kira A.","contributorId":145492,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Cassidy","given":"Kira","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":16134,"text":"Yellowstone Wolf Project, Yellowstone Ctr for Resources","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":663050,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Mech, L.

This assessment was based on a geologic model that incorporates the Upper Jurassic-Cretaceous-Tertiary Composite Total Petroleum System (TPS) of the Gulf of Mexico basin; the TPS was defined previously by the USGS assessment team in the assessment of undiscovered hydrocarbon resources in Tertiary strata of the Gulf Coast region in 2007. One conventional assessment unit (AU), which extends from south Texas to the Florida panhandle, was defined: the Fredericksburg-Buda Carbonate Platform-Reef Gas and Oil AU. The assessed stratigraphic interval includes the Edwards Limestone of the Fredericksburg Group and the Georgetown and Buda Limestones of the Washita Group. The following factors were evaluated to define the AU and estimate oil and gas resources: potential source rocks, hydrocarbon migration, reservoir porosity and permeability, traps and seals, structural features, paleoenvironments (back-reef lagoon, reef, and fore-reef environments), and the potential for water washing of hydrocarbons near outcrop areas.</p><p>In Texas and Louisiana, the downdip boundary of the AU was defined as a line that extends 10 miles downdip of the Lower Cretaceous shelf margin to include potential reef-talus hydrocarbon reservoirs. In Mississippi, Alabama, and the panhandle area of Florida, where the Lower Cretaceous shelf margin extends offshore, the downdip boundary was defined by the offshore boundary of State Waters. Updip boundaries of the AU were drawn based on the updip extent of carbonate rocks within the assessed interval, the presence of basin-margin fault zones, and the presence of producing wells. Other factors evaluated were the middle Cenomanian sea-level fall and erosion that removed large portions of platform and platform-margin carbonate sediments in the Washita Group of central Louisiana. The production history of discovered reservoirs and well data within the AU were examined to estimate the number and size of undiscovered oil and gas reservoirs within the AU. Using the USGS National Oil and Gas Assessment resource assessment methodology, mean volumes of 40 million barrels of oil, 622 billion cubic feet of gas, and 14 million barrels of natural gas liquids are the estimated technically recoverable undiscovered resources for the Fredericksburg-Buda Carbonate Platform-Reef Gas and Oil AU.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological

We assessed spatial habitat-use patterns of 10 adult female green turtles (Chelonia mydas) nesting at Buck Island Reef National Monument, U.S. Virgin Islands (BIRNM) from  2011 – 2014. Turtles ranged in size from 89.0 – 115.9 cm CCL (mean + SD = 106.8 + 7.7 cm). The inter-nesting period across all turtles ranged from 31 July to 4 November, and sizes of the 50% core-use areas during inter-nesting ranged from 4.2 – 19.0 km2. Inter-nesting core-use areas were located up to1.4 km from shore and had bathymetry values ranging from -17.0 to -13.0 m. Seven of the ten turtles remained locally resident after the nesting season. Five turtles (50%) foraged around Buck Island, two foraged around the island of St. Croix, and the other three (30%) made longer-distance migrations to Antigua, St. Kitts & Nevis, and Venezuela. Further, five turtles had foraging centroids within protected areas. Delineating spatial areas and identifying temporal periods of nearshore habitat-use can be useful for natural resource managers with responsibility for overseeing vulnerable habitats and protected marine turtle populations.","language":"English","publisher":"Inter-Research","doi":"10.3354/esr00793","usgsCitation":"Hart, K.M., Iverson, A., Benscoter, A.M., Fujisaki, I., Cherkiss, M.S., Pollock, C., Lundgren, I., and Hillis-Starr, Z., 2017, Resident areas and migrations of female green turtles nesting at Buck Island Reef National Monument, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands: Endangered Species Research, v. 32, p. 89-101, https://doi.org/10.3354/esr00793.","productDescription":"13 p.","startPage":"89","endPage":"101","ipdsId":"IP-075808","costCenters":[{"id":17705,"text":"Wetland and Aquatic Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":470078,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.3354/esr00793","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":335125,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"U.S. Virgin Islands","otherGeospatial":" Buck Island Reef National Monument, St. Croix","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -64.97863769531249,\n              17.59297594219941\n            ],\n            [\n              -64.97863769531249,\n              17.926475979176438\n            ],\n            [\n              -64.48013305664062,\n              17.926475979176438\n            ],\n            [\n              -64.48013305664062,\n              17.59297594219941\n            ],\n            [\n              -64.97863769531249,\n              17.59297594219941\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"32","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":5,"text":"Lafayette PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"589edf26e4b099f50d3dc590","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Hart, Kristen M. 0000-0002-5257-7974 kristen_hart@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5257-7974","contributorId":1966,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hart","given":"Kristen","email":"kristen_hart@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":17705,"text":"Wetland and Aquatic Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":662994,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Iverson, Autumn 0000-0002-8353-6745 ariverson@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8353-6745","contributorId":179150,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Iverson","given":"Autumn","email":"ariverson@usgs.gov","affiliations":[],"preferred":true,"id":662995,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Benscoter, Allison M.","contributorId":57781,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Benscoter","given":"Allison","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":662996,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Fujisaki, Ikuko","contributorId":38359,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Fujisaki","given":"Ikuko","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":662997,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Cherkiss, Michael S. 0000-0002-7802-6791 mcherkiss@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7802-6791","contributorId":4571,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Cherkiss","given":"Michael","email":"mcherkiss@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[{"id":566,"text":"Southeast Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":17705,"text":"Wetland and Aquatic Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":662998,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Pollock, Clayton","contributorId":168497,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Pollock","given":"Clayton","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":662999,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Lundgren, Ian","contributorId":179151,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Lundgren","given":"Ian","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":663000,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Hillis-Starr, Zandy","contributorId":179152,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hillis-Starr","given":"Zandy","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":663001,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8}]}}

During 2013–15, surface waters of four Midwestern United States national parks were sampled and analyzed for wastewater indicators, pharmaceuticals, personal care products, and pesticides. More chemicals and higher concentrations were detected at the two parks with greater urban influences (Mississippi National River and Recreation Area and Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore) than at the two more remote parks (Apostle Islands National Lakeshore and Isle Royale National Park). Atrazine (10–15 ng/L) and N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide (16–120 ng/L) were the only chemicals detected in inland lakes of a remote island national park (Isle Royale National Park). Bisphenol A and organophosphate flame retardants were commonly detected at the other sampled parks. Gabapentin and simazine had the highest observed concentrations (> 1000 ng/L) in three and two samples, respectively. At the two parks with urban influences, metolachlor and simazine concentrations were similar to those reported for other major urban rivers in the United States. Environmental concentrations of detected chemicals were often orders of magnitude less than standards or reference values with three exceptions: (1) hydrochlorothiazide exceeded a human health-based screening value in seven samples, (2) estrone exceeded a predicted critical environmental concentration for fish pharmacological effects in one sample, and (3) simazine was approaching the 4000 ng/L Maximum Contaminant Level in one sample even though this concentration is not expected to reflect peak pesticide use. Although few environmental concentrations were approaching or exceeded standards or reference values, concentrations were often in ranges reported to elicit effects in aquatic biota. Data from this study will assist in establishing a baseline for chemicals of concern in Midwestern national parks and highlight the need to better understand the sources, pathways, and potential adverse effects to aquatic systems in national parks.","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.scitotenv.2016.11.114","usgsCitation":"Elliott, S.M., and VanderMeulen, D., 2017, A regional assessment of chemicals of concern in surface waters of four Midwestern United States national parks: Science of the Total Environment, v. 579, p. 1726-1735, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2016.11.114.","productDescription":"10 p.","startPage":"1726","endPage":"1735","ipdsId":"IP-075898","costCenters":[{"id":392,"text":"Minnesota Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":335124,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin","otherGeospatial":"Apostle Islands National Lakeshore, Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore, Isle Royale National Park, Mississippi National River","volume":"579","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":4,"text":"Rolla PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"589edf25e4b099f50d3dc58d","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Elliott, Sarah M. 0000-0002-1414-3024 selliott@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1414-3024","contributorId":1472,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Elliott","given":"Sarah","email":"selliott@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":392,"text":"Minnesota Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":663028,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"VanderMeulen, David","contributorId":179172,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"VanderMeulen","given":"David","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":663029,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

During 2010‒13, six complete sets of samples were collected. Samples were initially collected at 30 sites; however, starting in 2012, samples were collected at 7 additional sites. These sites are generally collocated with an active streamgage. At all but one site, a separate bed-material sample was collected at three locations within the channel (left, right, and center). Bed-material samples were collected using either a US BMH–60 or a US BM–54 (for sites with higher stream velocity) cable-suspended, scoop sampler. Samples from each location were oven-dried and sieved. Bed material finer than 2 millimeters was subsampled using a sieving riffler and processed using a Beckman Coulter LS 13–320 laser diffraction particle-size analyzer. To determine the organic content of the bed material, the loss on ignition method was used for one subsample from each location. Particle-size distributions are presented as cumulative percent finer than a given size. Median and 90th-percentile particle size, and the percentage of subsample mass lost using the loss on ignition method for each sample are also presented in this report.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/ds1026","issn":"2327-638X (online)","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the Bureau of Reclamation","usgsCitation":"Marineau, M.D., and Wright, S.A., 2017, Bed-material characteristics of the Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta, California, 2010–13: U.S. Geological Survey Data Series 1026, 55 p., \n<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.3133/ds1026\">https://doi.org/10.3133/ds1026</a>.","productDescription":"vi, 55 p.","numberOfPages":"66","onlineOnly":"Y","ipdsId":"IP-078870","costCenters":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":334907,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/1026/ds1026.pdf","text":"Report","size":"2.6 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"DS 1026"},{"id":334906,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/1026/coverthb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","otherGeospatial":"Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -122,\n              38.5\n            ],\n            [\n              -122,\n             37.66667\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.1667,\n             37.66667\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.1667,\n              38.5\n            ],\n            [\n              -122,\n              38.5\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","contact":"<p>Director<br>U.S. Geological Survey<br>California Water Science Center<br>6000 J Street, Placer Hall<br>Sacramento, CA 95819</p><p><a href=\"http://ca.water.usgs.gov\" data-mce-href=\"http://ca.water.usgs.gov\">http://ca.water.usgs.gov</a></p>","tableOfContents":"<ul><li>Abstract<br></li><li>Introduction<br></li><li>Purpose and Scope<br></li><li>Description of the Study Area<br></li><li>Methods<br></li><li>Bed-Material Sample Collection<br></li><li>Collection of Supplemental Bed-Material Samples<br></li><li>Sample Preparation<br></li><li>Particle-Size Distribution Analysis<br></li><li>Comparison of Sieving and Analyzer Methods<br></li><li>Particle-Size Distribution Using the Analyzer<br></li><li>Replicate Analyzer Measurements<br></li><li>Samples Containing Coarse Material<br></li><li>Loss on Ignition<br></li><li>Results<br></li><li>References Cited<br></li><li>Appendix 1<br></li></ul>","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":1,"text":"Sacramento PSC"},"publishedDate":"2017-02-10","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-02-10","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"589edf27e4b099f50d3dc596","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Marineau, Mathieu D. 0000-0002-6568-0743 mmarineau@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6568-0743","contributorId":4954,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Marineau","given":"Mathieu","email":"mmarineau@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":653737,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Wright, Scott 0000-0002-0387-5713 sawright@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0387-5713","contributorId":1536,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wright","given":"Scott","email":"sawright@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":653738,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}
