To document demographic impacts of WNS on </span><i>Myotis septentrionalis</i><span> (Northern Long-eared Bat), we mistnetted at sites in western Virginia where Northern Long-eared Bats were captured in summer before (1990–2009) and after (2011–2013) the onset of WNS.

We noted a time lag in the rate of decline between published data based on bats captured during the swarming season and our summer mist-netting captures from the same geographic area.

Assessment of the outcome of such change can provide insight into the efficacy of current strategies and policies to manage water resources. We (1) examined trends in precipitation, floods, and stream flashiness and (2) assessed the relative influence of land cover and flow-regulating features (e.g., best management practices and artificial water bodies) on stream flashiness from 1991 to 2013. We found mean annual precipitation decreased, which coincided with decreasing trends in floods. In contrast, stream flashiness, overall, showed an increasing trend during the period of study. However, upon closer examination, 20 watersheds showed stable stream flashiness, whereas 5 increased and 6 decreased in flashiness. Urban watersheds were among those that increased or decreased in flashiness. Watersheds that increased in stream flashiness gained more urban cover, lost more forested cover and had fewer best management practices installed than urban watersheds that decreased in stream flashiness. We found best management practices are more effective than artificial water bodies in regulating flashy floods. Flashiness index is a valuable and straightforward metric to characterize changes in streamflow and help to assess the efficacy of management interventions.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/1752-1688.12408","usgsCitation":"Mogollon, B., Frimpong, E.A., Hoegh, A.B., and Angermeier, P.L., 2016, Recent

One method of establishing MVP is population viability analysis, a modeling technique that simulates population trajectories and forecasts extinction risk based on a series of biological, environmental, and management assumptions. Such models also help identify key uncertainties that have a large influence on extinction risk. We used stochastic count-based simulation models to explore extinction risk, MVP, and the possible benefits of alternative management strategies in populations of Roanoke logperch </span><i><i>Percina rex</i></i><span>, an endangered stream fish. Estimates of extinction risk were sensitive to the assumed population growth rate and model type, carrying capacity, and catastrophe regime (frequency and severity of anthropogenic fish kills), whereas demographic augmentation did little to reduce extinction risk. Under density-dependent growth, the estimated MVP for Roanoke logperch ranged from 200 to 4200 individuals, depending on the assumed severity of catastrophes. Thus, depending on the MVP threshold, anywhere from two to all five of the logperch populations we assessed were projected to be viable. Despite this uncertainty, these results help identify populations with the greatest relative extinction risk, as well as management strategies that might reduce this risk the most, such as increasing carrying capacity and reducing fish kills. Better estimates of population growth parameters and catastrophe regimes would facilitate the refinement of MVP and extinction-risk estimates, and they should be a high priority for future research on Roanoke logperch and other imperiled stream-fish species.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Scientific Journals","doi":"10.3996/032015-JFWM-026","usgsCitation":"Roberts, J.H., Angermeier, P.L., and Anderson, G.B., 2016, Population viability analysis for endangered Roanoke logperch: Journal of Fish and Wildlife Management, v. 7, no. 1, p. 46-64, https://doi.org/10.3996/032015-JFWM-026.","productDescription":"19 p.","startPage":"46","endPage":"64","ipdsId":"IP-061309","costCenters":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":340602,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"7","issue":"1","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"590454a4e4b022cee40dc23e","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Roberts, James H.","contributorId":83811,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Roberts","given":"James","email":"","middleInitial":"H.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":693460,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Angermeier, Paul L. 0000-0003-2864-170X biota@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2864-170X","contributorId":166679,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Angermeier","given":"Paul","email":"biota@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":693118,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Anderson, Gregory B.","contributorId":65988,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Anderson","given":"Gregory","email":"","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":693461,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

A quality assessment index for bryophyte species assemblages (BQAI) was developed for the State of Ohio, USA. Reliable identification of bryophytes to species often requires considerable training, practice, and time. In contrast, reliable identification to genera for most bryophytes in Ohio requires much less training. We identified 110 bryophyte species (14 liverworts and 96 mosses) belonging to 69 genera (13 liverwort and 56 moss) in 45 wetlands (27 emergent, 13 forested, and 5 shrub) in Ohio. As expected, there were more genera and higher BQAI scores in forested than in emergent wetlands.

Along with lake drawdown, these processes often boost aquatic chemical concentrations, potentially impacting trophic dynamics. In particular, elevated chemical levels may impact primary productivity, which may in turn influence populations of primary and secondary consumers. We examined trophic dynamics of 18 shrinking lakes of the Yukon Flats, Alaska, that had experienced pronounced increases in nutrient (>200 % total nitrogen, >100 % total phosphorus) and ion concentrations (>100 % for four major ions combined) from 1985-1989 to 2010-2012, versus 37 stable lakes with relatively little chemical change over the same period. We found that phytoplankton stocks, as indexed by chlorophyll concentrations, remained unchanged in both shrinking and stable lakes from the 1980s to 2010s. Moving up the trophic ladder, we found significant changes in invertebrate abundance across decades, including decreased abundance of five of six groups examined. However, these decadal losses in invertebrate abundance were not limited to shrinking lakes, occurring in lakes with stable surface areas as well. At the top of the food web, we observed that probabilities of lake occupancy for ten waterbird species, including adults and chicks, remained unchanged from the period 1985-1989 to 2010-2012. Overall, our study lakes displayed a high degree of resilience to multi-trophic cascades caused by rising chemical concentrations. This resilience was likely due to their naturally high fertility, such that further nutrient inputs had little impact on waters already near peak production.","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s00442-016-3572-y","usgsCitation":"Lewis, T., Lindberg, M.S., Schmutz, J.A., Heglund, P., Schmidt, J.H., Dubour, A.J., Rover,

We used fiber-optic distributed temperature sensing (FO-DTS), seepage meters, and vertical temperature profiling to locate, quantify, and monitor areas of focused groundwater discharge in a geomorphically simple sand-bed stream. This combined approach allowed us to rapidly focus efforts at locations where prodigious amounts of groundwater discharged to the Quashnet River on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, northeastern USA. FO-DTS detected numerous anomalously cold reaches one to several m long that persisted over two summers. Seepage meters positioned upstream, within, and downstream of 7 anomalously cold reaches indicated that rapid groundwater discharge occurred precisely where the bed was cold; median upward seepage was nearly 5 times faster than seepage measured in streambed areas not identified as cold. Vertical temperature profilers deployed next to 8 seepage meters provided diurnal-signal-based seepage estimates that compared remarkably well with seepage-meter values. Regression slope and R</span><sup>2</sup><span><span>&nbsp;</span>values both were near 1 for seepage ranging from 0.05 to 3.0 m d</span><sup>−1</sup><span>. Temperature-based seepage model accuracy was improved with thermal diffusivity determined locally from diurnal signals.

Tools are filtered and presented based on five evaluative criteria: scalability, cost, time requirements, handling of uncertainty, and applicability to benefit-cost analysis.

Here we show how depleted aquifers have been used to store water by substituting surface water use for groundwater pumpage (conjunctive use, CU) or recharging groundwater with surface water (Managed Aquifer Recharge, MAR). Unique multi‐decadal monitoring from thousands of wells and regional modeling datasets for the California Central Valley and central Arizona were used to assess CU and MAR. In addition to natural reservoir capacity related to deep water tables, historical groundwater depletion further expanded aquifer storage by ~44 km3 in the Central Valley and by ~100 km3 in Arizona, similar to or exceeding current surface reservoir capacity by up to three times. Local river water and imported surface water, transported through 100s of km of canals, is substituted for groundwater (&le;15 km3/yr, CU) or is used to recharge groundwater (MAR, &le;1.5 km3/yr) during wet years shifting to mostly groundwater pumpage during droughts. In the Central Valley, CU and MAR locally reversed historically declining water‐level trends, which contrasts with simulated net regional groundwater depletion. In Arizona, CU and MAR also reversed historically declining groundwater level trends in Active Management Areas. These rising trends contrast with current declining trends in irrigated areas that lack access to surface water to support CU or MAR. Use of depleted aquifers as reservoirs could expand with winter flood irrigation or capturing flood discharges to the Pacific (0 &ndash; 1.6 km3/yr, 2000&ndash;2014) with additional infrastructure in California. Because flexibility and expanded portfolio options translate to resilience, CU and MAR enhance drought resilience through multi‐year storage, complementing shorter term surface reservoir storage, and facilitating water markets.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"IOP Publishing","doi":"10.1088/1748-9326/11/4/049501","usgsCitation":"Scanlon, B., Reedy, R., Faunt, C., Pool, D.R., and Uhlman, K., 2016, Enhancing drought resilience with conjunctive use and managed aquifer recharge in California and Arizona: Environmental Research Letters, v. 11, no. 3, Article 035013; 15 p., https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/11/4/049501.","productDescription":"Article 035013; 15 p.","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-072928","costCenters":[{"id":128,"text":"Arizona Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":470933,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/11/4/049501","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":324524,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"11","issue":"3","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":14,"text":"Menlo Park PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2016-04-08","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"57739fafe4b07657d1a90cbe","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Scanlon, Bridget R.","contributorId":74093,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Scanlon","given":"Bridget R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":620985,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Reedy, Robert C.","contributorId":92956,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Reedy","given":"Robert C.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":620986,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Faunt, Claudia C. 0000-0001-5659-7529 ccfaunt@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5659-7529","contributorId":150147,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Faunt","given":"Claudia C.","email":"ccfaunt@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":620984,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Pool, Donald R. drpool@usgs.gov","contributorId":1121,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Pool","given":"Donald","email":"drpool@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":128,"text":"Arizona Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":620983,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Uhlman, Kristine;","contributorId":167093,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Uhlman","given":"Kristine;","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":17599,"text":"Texas Bureau of Economic Geology","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":620987,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

The second part of our research agenda, &ldquo;wilderness for wildlife,&rdquo; considers the types of research needed to understand the impact of wilderness areas on wildlife and biodiversity conservation. Several studies show the effect of one area being designated wilderness on one wildlife species. Yet, there has been no research that examines how the networks of wilderness areas in the National Wilderness Preservation System (NWPS) are used by a species or a community of species.

In an era of rapidly changing climate, the relationship between the timing of those events and environmental cues such as temperature, snowmelt, water availability or day length are of particular interest. This article provides an overview of the plant phenology sampling which will be conducted by the U.S. National Ecological Observatory Network NEON, the resulting data, and the rationale behind the design. Trained technicians will conduct regular in situ observations of plant phenology at all terrestrial NEON sites for the 30-year life of the observatory. Standardized and coordinated data across the network of sites can be used to quantify the direction and magnitude of the relationships between phenology and environmental forcings, as well as the degree to which these relationships vary among sites, among species, among phenophases, and through time. Vegetation at NEON sites will also be monitored with tower-based cameras, satellite remote sensing and annual high-resolution airborne remote sensing. Ground-based measurements can be used to calibrate and improve satellite-derived phenometrics. NEON&rsquo;s phenology monitoring design is complementary to existing phenology research efforts and citizen science initiatives throughout the world and will produce interoperable data. By collocating plant phenology observations with a suite of additional meteorological, biophysical and ecological measurements (e.g., climate, carbon flux, plant productivity, population dynamics of consumers) at 47 terrestrial sites, the NEON design will enable continentalscale inference about the status, trends, causes and ecological consequences of phenological change.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Ecological Society of America","doi":"10.1002/ecs2.1303","usgsCitation":"Elmendorf, S.C., Jones, K.D., Cook, B., Diez, J.M., Enquist, C.A., Hufft, R.A., Jones, M.O., Mazer, S., Miller-Rushing, A., Moore, D.J., Schwartz, M., and Weltzin, J., 2016, The plant phenology monitoring design for the National Ecological Observatory Network: Ecosphere, v. 7, no. 4, e01303: 16 p., https://doi.org/10.1002/ecs2.1303.","productDescription":"e01303: 16 p.","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-052777","costCenters":[{"id":433,"text":"National Phenology Network","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":470954,"rank":2,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/ecs2.1303","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":321942,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"7","issue":"4","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":14,"text":"Menlo Park PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2016-04-25","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"574ea79ae4b0ee97d51a2be0","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Elmendorf, Sarah C","contributorId":169801,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Elmendorf","given":"Sarah","email":"","middleInitial":"C","affiliations":[{"id":25598,"text":"NEON, Staff Scientist","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":631087,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Jones, Katherine D.","contributorId":169802,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Jones","given":"Katherine","email":"","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[{"id":590,"text":"U.S. Army Corps of Engineers","active":false,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":631088,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Cook, Benjamin I.","contributorId":81237,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Cook","given":"Benjamin I.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":631089,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Diez, Jeffrey M.","contributorId":169803,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Diez","given":"Jeffrey","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":590,"text":"U.S. Army Corps of Engineers","active":false,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":631090,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Enquist, Carolyn A.F.","contributorId":169804,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Enquist","given":"Carolyn","email":"","middleInitial":"A.F.","affiliations":[{"id":25599,"text":"USA-NPN","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":631091,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Hufft, Rebecca A.","contributorId":148014,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hufft","given":"Rebecca","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":16973,"text":"Neptune and Company Inc.","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":631107,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Jones, Matthew O.","contributorId":169805,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Jones","given":"Matthew","email":"","middleInitial":"O.","affiliations":[{"id":590,"text":"U.S. Army Corps of Engineers","active":false,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":631092,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Mazer, Susan J.","contributorId":96564,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Mazer","given":"Susan J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":631094,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8},{"text":"Miller-Rushing, Abraham J.","contributorId":103561,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Miller-Rushing","given":"Abraham J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":631095,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":9},{"text":"Moore, David J.

Hawksbill sea turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata) are long-lived, major consumers in coral reef habitats that move over broad geographic areas (hundreds to thousands of kilometers). We evaluated spatio-temporal effects on hawksbill growth dynamics over a 33-yr period and 24 study sites throughout the West Atlantic and explored relationships between growth dynamics and climate indices. We compiled the largest ever data set on somatic growth rates for hawksbills &ndash; 3541 growth increments from 1980 to 2013. Using generalized additive mixed model analyses, we evaluated 10 covariates, including spatial and temporal variation, that could affect growth rates. Growth rates throughout the region responded similarly over space and time. The lack of a spatial effect or spatio-temporal interaction and the very strong temporal effect reveal that growth rates in West Atlantic hawksbills are likely driven by region-wide forces. Between 1997 and 2013, mean growth rates declined significantly and steadily by 18%. Regional climate indices have significant relationships with annual growth rates with 0- or 1-yr lags: positive with the Multivariate El Ni&ntilde;o Southern Oscillation Index (correlation = 0.99) and negative with Caribbean sea surface temperature (correlation = &minus;0.85). Declines in growth rates between 1997 and 2013 throughout the West Atlantic most likely resulted from warming waters through indirect negative effects on foraging resources of hawksbills. These climatic influences are complex. With increasing temperatures, trajectories of decline of coral cover and availability in reef habitats of major prey species of hawksbills are not parallel. Knowledge of how choice of foraging habitats, prey selection, and prey abundance are affected by warming water temperatures is needed to understand how climate change will affect productivity of consumers that live in association with coral reefs.

Natural abundance ratios of stable isotopes of nitrogen (δ<sup>15</sup>N) measured in plant tissue growing in nearshore areas of the lake indicate that the major source of nitrogen used by these primary producing plants is derived mainly from atmospherically fixed nitrogen in an undeveloped forested ecosystem. Exceptions to this pattern occurred in the Barnes Point area where elevated δ<sup>15</sup>N ratios indicate that effluent from septic systems also contribute nitrogen to filamentous-periphytic algae growing in the littoral zone of that area. Near the Lyre River outlet of Lake Crescent, the δ<sup>15</sup>N of filamentous-periphytic algae growing in close proximity to the spawning areas of a unique species of trout show little evidence of elevated δ<sup>15</sup>N indicating that nitrogen from on-site septic systems is not a substantial source of nitrogen for these plants. The δ<sup>15</sup>N data corroborate estimates that nitrogen input to Lake Crescent from septic sources is comparatively small relative to input from motor vehicle exhaust and vegetative sources in undeveloped forests, including litterfall, pollen, and symbiotic nitrogen fixation. The seasonal timing of blooms of filamentous-periphytic algal near the lake shoreline is also consistent with nitrogen exported from stands of red alder trees (<i>Alnus rubra</i>). Isotope biomonitoring of filamentous-periphytic algae may be an effective approach to monitoring the littoral zone for nutrient input to Lake Crescent from septic sources.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sir20165054","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the National Park

Total seed production was estimated to be &gt;100 times greater in 2013 than 2014. One-third of the fruit crop fell to the ground and was removed by rodents over the course of 120 d. After ground fruits became scarce, rodents exploited canopy fruits. Rodent numbers were low in 2013, so fruits remained in canopies for 370 d. In 2014, fruit production was approximately 20% lower.

Blood plasma samples were analyzed for metrics related to nutritional and osmotic status, and samples of white muscle tissue collected from recent mortalities at weirs were analyzed for proximate constituents. Female kelts from the Situk River had significantly higher plasma cholesterol, triglycerides, glucose and calcium concentrations, all of which suggested higher lipid and energy stores. Additional support for energy limitation in kelts was provided by evaluating the presence of detectable proteins in the plasma. Most all kelts sampled from the Situk River populations had detectable plasma proteins, in contrast to kelts sampled from the Clearwater River tributary populations where 27&nbsp;% of kelts from one tributary, and 68&nbsp;% of the second tributary were below the limits of detection. We found proximate constituents of kelt mortalities were similar between the Situk and Clearwater River populations, and the lipid fraction of white muscle averaged 0.1 and 0.2&nbsp;%. Our findings lend support to the hypothesis that energetic limitations likely affect post-spawn survival in the Clearwater River kelts.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s10641-016-0493-x","usgsCitation":"Penney, Z.L., Moffitt, C.M., Jones, B., and Marston, B., 2016, Physiological

In this study, we compare the reactivity of a new anti-passerine IgY secondary antibody with existing secondary antibodies developed for use with birds. Samples from 41 species from the following six avian orders were analysed: Anseriformes (1 family, 1 species), Columbiformes (1 family, 2 species), Galliformes (1 family, 1 species), Passeriformes (16 families, 34 species), Piciformes (1 family, 2 species) and Suliformes (1 family, 1 species). Direct ELISAs were performed to detect total IgY using goat anti-passerine IgY, goat anti-chicken IgY or goat anti-bird IgY secondary antibodies.</p>\n<p>3.The anti-passerine antibody exhibited significantly higher IgY reactivity compared to the anti-chicken and/or anti-bird antibodies in 80% of the passerine families tested. Birds in the order Piciformes (woodpeckers) and order Suliformes (cormorants) were poorly detected by all three secondary antibodies. A comparison of serum and plasma IgY levels was made within the same individuals for two passerine species (house finch and white-crowned sparrow), and serum exhibited significantly more IgY than the plasma for all three secondary antibodies. This result indicates that serum may be preferred to plasma when measuring total antibody levels in blood.</p>\n<p>4.This study indicates that the anti-passerine IgY secondary antibody can effectively be used in immunological assays to detect passerine IgY for species in most passerine families and is preferred over anti-chicken and anti-bird secondary antibodies for the majority of passerine species. This anti-passerine antibody will allow for more accurate detection and quantification of IgY in more wild bird species than was possible with previously available secondary antibodies.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"John Wiley","doi":"10.1111/2041-210X.12583","usgsCitation":"Fassbinder-Orth, C.A., Wilcoxen, T.E., Tran, T., Boughton, R.K., Fair, J.M., Hofmeister, E.K., Grindstaff, J.L., and Owen, J.C., 2016, Immunoglobulin detection in wild birds: Effectiveness of three secondary anti-avian IgY antibodies in direct ELISAs in 41 avian species: Methods in Ecology and Evolution, v. 7, no. 10, p. 1174-1181, https://doi.org/10.1111/2041-210X.12583.","productDescription":"8 p.","startPage":"1174","endPage":"1181","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-074662","costCenters":[{"id":456,"text":"National Wildlife Health Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":470958,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/5084450","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":330424,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"7","issue":"10","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":6,"text":"Columbus PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2016-05-28","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5811c0f2e4b0f497e79a5a6d","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Fassbinder-Orth, Carol A.","contributorId":176331,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Fassbinder-Orth","given":"Carol","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":652229,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Wilcoxen, Travis E.","contributorId":176332,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Wilcoxen","given":"Travis","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":652230,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Tran, Tiffany","contributorId":176333,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Tran","given":"Tiffany","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":652231,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Boughton, Raoul K.","contributorId":176334,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Boughton","given":"Raoul","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":652232,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Fair, Jeanne M.","contributorId":176335,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Fair","given":"Jeanne","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":652233,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Hofmeister, Erik K. 0000-0002-6360-3912 ehofmeister@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6360-3912","contributorId":3230,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hofmeister","given":"Erik","email":"ehofmeister@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[{"id":456,"text":"National Wildlife Health Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":652228,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Grindstaff, Jennifer L.","contributorId":176336,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Grindstaff","given":"Jennifer","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":652234,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Owen, Jen C.","contributorId":176337,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Owen","given":"Jen","email":"","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":652235,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8}]}}

In the western US, prairie dog populations experience nearly 100% mortality during plague outbreaks, suggesting that multiple transmission pathways combine to amplify plague dynamics. Several alternate pathways in addition to flea vectors have been proposed, such as transmission via direct contact with bodily fluids or inhalation of infectious droplets, consumption of carcasses, and environmental sources of plague bacteria, such as contaminated soil. However, evidence supporting the ability of these proposed alternate pathways to trigger large-scale epizootics remains elusive. Here we present a short review of potential plague transmission pathways and use an ordinary differential equation model to assess the contribution of each pathway to resulting plague dynamics in black-tailed prairie dogs (</span><i class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Cynomys ludovicianus</i><span>) and their fleas (</span><i class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Oropsylla hirsuta</i><span>). Using our model, we found little evidence to suggest that soil contamination was capable of producing plague epizootics in prairie dogs. However, in the absence of flea transmission, direct transmission, i.e., contact with bodily fluids or inhalation of infectious droplets, could produce enzootic dynamics, and transmission via contact with or consumption of carcasses could produce epizootics. This suggests that these pathways warrant further investigation.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"SpringerLink","doi":"10.1007/s10393-016-1133-9","usgsCitation":"Richgels, K., Russell,

Understanding the impacts of renewable energy development on wildlife is a priority for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) in compliance with Department of Interior Order No. 3285 (U.S. Department of the Interior, 2009) to “develop best management practices for renewable energy and transmission projects on the public lands to ensure the most environmentally responsible development and delivery of renewable energy.” Recent studies examining effects of renewable energy development on mortality of migratory birds have primarily focused on wind energy (California Energy Commission and California Department of Fish and Game, 2007), and in 2012 the FWS published guidance for addressing wildlife conservation concerns at all stages of land-based wind energy development (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 2012). As yet, no similar guidelines exist for solar development, and no published studies have directly addressed the methodology needed to accurately estimate mortality of birds and bats at solar facilities. In the absence of such guidelines, ad hoc methodologies applied to solar energy projects may lead to estimates of wildlife mortality rates that are insufficiently accurate and precise to meaningfully inform conversations regarding unintended consequences of this energy source and management decisions to mitigate impacts. Although significant advances in monitoring protocols for wind facilities have been made in recent years, there remains a need to provide consistent guidance and study design to quantify mortality of bats, and resident and migrating birds at solar power facilities (Walston and others, 2015).</p><p>In this document, we suggest methods for mortality monitoring at solar facilities that are based on current methods used at wind power facilities but adapted for the unique conditions encountered at solar facilities. In particular, unlike at wind-power facilities, the unimpeded access to almost all areas within the facilities, the typically flat terrain, and general absence of thick vegetation allow distance-sampling techniques (Buckland and others, 2001, 2004) to be exploited to advantage at industrial solar sites. These protocols build on the work of Nicolai and others (2011), and as our understanding and techniques for monitoring improve, the methods may be further modified to incorporate improvements in the future. We present case studies based on monitoring methods currently implemented at different utility-scale solar facilities to illustrate how distance-sampling techniques may improve overall detectability without substantially increasing costs. Every facility is unique, and the protocols presented may be adapted based on specific monitoring objectives and conditions at each site.</p><p>We provide guidance for designing monitoring programs whose objective it is to estimate the total number of bird and bat fatalities occurring at a facility over an extended period of time. We address spatial variation in causes of mortality, as well as potential sources of imperfect detection, for example, animals falling in or moving to unsearched areas, carcasses removed by predators, and carcasses missed by searchers. We suggest methods to estimate and account for each source of imperfect detection. This document focuses on monitoring design only and does not discuss approaches for estimating mortality from collected data. The development of statistically sound estimators relevant to the solar context is a current topic of research, although there are already strong foundations for estimation with distance-sampling methods in similar open, arid environments (Anderson and others, 2001; Freilich and others, 2005).

Such intraguild predation is common in nature, despite models predicting instability. Using a series of manipulations and field surveys, we examined intraguild predation from several angles, including the effects of stage-dependent predation along with direct consumptive and nonconsumptive predator effects on intraguild prey. In the laboratory, we found that crabs fed on macroalgae, snail eggs, and snails, and the size of consumed snails increased with predator crab size. In field experiments, snails grew less in the presence of crabs partially because snails behaved differently and were buried in the sediment (nonconsumptive effects). Consistent with these results, crab and snail abundances were negatively correlated in three field surveys conducted at three different spatial scales in estuaries of California, Baja California, and Baja California Sur: (1) among 61 sites spanning multiple habitat types in three estuaries, (2) among the habitats of 13 estuaries, and (3) among 34 tidal creek sites in one estuary. These results indicate that shore crabs are intraguild predators on California horn snails that affect snail populations via predation and by influencing snail behavior and performance.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Ecological Society of America","doi":"10.1002/ecs2.1262","usgsCitation":"Lorda, J., Hechinger, R.F., Cooper, S., Kuris, A., and Lafferty, K.D., 2016, Intraguild predation by shore crabs affects mortality, behavior, growth, and densities of California horn snails: Ecosphere, v. 7, no. 5, e01262; 17 p., https://doi.org/10.1002/ecs2.1262.","productDescription":"e01262; 17 p.","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-069609","costCenters":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":470961,"rank":2,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/ecs2.1262","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":321827,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"7","issue":"5","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":1,"text":"Sacramento PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2016-05-25","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5749619ce4b07e28b6650f9e","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Lorda, J.","contributorId":74717,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lorda","given":"J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":630603,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Hechinger, R.

Introduced in the 1970s to counter genetic resistance in rodent populations to first-generation compounds such as warfarin, SGARs are extremely toxic and highly effective killers. However, their tendency to persist and accumulate in the body has led to the widespread contamination of terrestrial predators and scavengers. Commercial chemicals that are classified by regulators as persistent, bio-accumulative, and toxic (PBT) chemicals and that are widely used with potential environmental release, such as dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane (DDT) or polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), have been removed from commerce. However, despite consistently failing ecological risk assessments, SGARs remain in use because of the demand for effective rodent-control options and the lack of safe and humane alternatives. Although new risk-mitigation measures for rodenticides are now in effect in some countries, the contamination and poisoning of nontarget wildlife are expected to continue. Here, we suggest options to further attenuate this problem.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Oxford Journals","doi":"10.1093/biosci/biw028","usgsCitation":"Elliott, J., Rattner, B.A., Shore, R.F., and van den Brink, N.W., 2016, Paying the pipers: Mitigating the impact of anticoagulant rodenticides on predators and scavengers: BioScience, v. 66, no. 5, p. 401-407, https://doi.org/10.1093/biosci/biw028.","productDescription":"7 p.","startPage":"401","endPage":"407","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-055450","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":34983,"text":"Contaminant Biology Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":470959,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1093/biosci/biw028","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":321825,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"66","issue":"5","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":10,"text":"Baltimore PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2016-04-27","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5749619de4b07e28b6650fa6","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Elliott, John E.","contributorId":127368,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Elliott","given":"John E.","affiliations":[{"id":6779,"text":"Environment Canada, Burlington, Ontario, Canada","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":630676,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Rattner, Barnett A. 0000-0003-3676-2843 brattner@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3676-2843","contributorId":4142,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rattner","given":"Barnett","email":"brattner@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":630635,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Shore, Richard F.","contributorId":127369,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Shore","given":"Richard","email":"","middleInitial":"F.","affiliations":[{"id":6919,"text":"Natural Environment Research Council, UK","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":630677,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"van den Brink, Nico W.","contributorId":39229,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"van den Brink","given":"Nico","email":"","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":630678,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}
