This diversity of modeling approaches raises the question: how consistent are their projections of future land use? We compared projections from six LULC modeling applications for the United States and assessed quantitative, spatial, and conceptual inconsistencies. Each set of projections provided multiple scenarios covering a period from roughly 2000 to 2050. Given the unique spatial, thematic, and temporal characteristics of each set of projections, individual projections were aggregated to a common set of basic, generalized LULC classes (i.e., cropland, pasture, forest, range, and urban) and summarized at the county level across the conterminous United States. We found very little agreement in projected future LULC trends and patterns among the different models. Variability among scenarios for a given model was generally lower than variability among different models, in terms of both trends in the amounts of basic LULC classes and their projected spatial patterns. Even when different models assessed the same purported scenario, model projections varied substantially. Projections of agricultural trends were often far above the maximum historical amounts, raising concerns about the realism of the projections. Comparisons among models were hindered by major discrepancies in categorical definitions, and suggest a need for standardization of historical LULC data sources. To capture a broader range of uncertainties, ensemble modeling approaches are also recommended. However, the vast inconsistencies among LULC models raise questions about the theoretical and conceptual underpinnings of current modeling approaches. Given the substantial effects that land-use change can have on ecological and societal processes, there is a need for improvement in LULC theory and modeling capabilities to improve acceptance and use of regional- to national-scale LULC projections for the United States and elsewhere.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier Science Pub.

One common microbial interaction takes place between plants and fungal endophytes when fungi asymptomatically colonize host plant tissues. The objectives of this study were to isolate and sequence fungal endophytes colonizing non-native&nbsp;<i class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Phragmites australis</i>&nbsp;in the Great Lakes region to evaluate variation in endophyte community composition among three host tissue types and three geographical regions. We collected entire ramets from multiple clones and populations, surface sterilized plant tissues, and plated replicate tissue samples from leaves, stems, and rhizomes on corn meal agar plates to culture and isolate fungal endophytes. Isolates were then subjected to Sanger sequencing of the ITS region of the nuclear ribosomal DNA. Sequences were compared to fungal databases to define operational taxonomic units (OTUs) that were analyzed statistically for community composition. In total, we obtained 173 endophyte isolates corresponding to 55 OTUs, 39 of which were isolated only a single time. The most common OTU corresponded most closely to&nbsp;<i class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Sarocladium strictum</i>&nbsp;and comprised 25&nbsp;% of all fungal isolates. More OTUs were found in stem tissues, but endophyte diversity was greatest in rhizome tissues. PERMANOVA analyses indicated significant differences in endophyte communities among tissue types, geographical regions, and the interaction between those factors, but no differences among individual ramets were detected. The functional role of the isolated endophytes is not yet known, but one genus isolated here (<i class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Stagonospora</i>) has been reported to enhance&nbsp;<i class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Phragmites&nbsp;</i>growth. Understanding the diversity and functions of&nbsp;<i class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Phragmites</i>&nbsp;endophytes may provide targets for control measures based on disrupting host plant/endophyte interactions.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Kluwer Academic Publishers","doi":"10.1007/s10530-016-1137-y","usgsCitation":"Clay, K., Shearin, Z., Bourke, K., Bickford, W.A., and Kowalski, K., 2016, Diversity of fungal endophytes in non-native <i>Phragmites australis</i> in the Great Lakes: Biological Invasions, v. 18, no. 9, p. 2703-2716, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10530-016-1137-y.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"2703","endPage":"2716","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-069956","costCenters":[{"id":324,"text":"Great Lakes Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":326450,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Canada, United States","otherGeospatial":"Great Lakes region","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -93.42773437499999,\n              40.64730356252251\n            ],\n            [\n              -93.42773437499999,\n              49.66762782262194\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.5859375,\n              49.66762782262194\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.5859375,\n              40.64730356252251\n            ],\n            [\n              -93.42773437499999,\n              40.64730356252251\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"18","issue":"9","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":6,"text":"Columbus PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2016-04-04","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"57aee525e4b0fc09faadbd3a","chorus":{"doi":"10.1007/s10530-016-1137-y","url":"http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10530-016-1137-y","publisher":"Springer Nature","authors":"Clay Keith, Shearin Zackery R.

In this paper, the concept and tenets of collective impact are described, the GLPC is offered as a model for other natural resource-focused collective impact efforts, and steps for establishing collaboratives are presented. Capitalizing on the interactive collective impact approach, the GLPC is moving toward a broadly accepted common agenda around which agencies and individuals will be able to better align their actions and generate measureable progress in the regional campaign to protect healthy, diverse ecosystems from damage caused by non-native&nbsp;</span><i class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Phragmites</i><span>.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Kluwer Academic Publishers","doi":"10.1007/s10530-016-1142-1","usgsCitation":"Braun, H.B., Kowalski, K., and Hollins, K., 2016, Applying the collective impact approach to address non-native species: A case study of the Great Lakes <i>Phragmites</i> Collaborative: Biological Invasions, v. 18, no. 9, p. 2729-2738, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10530-016-1142-1.","productDescription":"10 p.","startPage":"2729","endPage":"2738","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-069939","costCenters":[{"id":324,"text":"Great Lakes Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":326447,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"18","issue":"9","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":6,"text":"Columbus PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2016-04-22","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"57aee524e4b0fc09faadbd36","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Braun, H.

Consistent with our prediction, adult sea lamprey maintained an avoidance response to conspecific damage-released alarm cues (fresh and decayed sea lamprey extract), a predator cue presented at high relative concentration (PEA HCl) and a conspecific damage-released alarm cue and predator cue combination (fresh sea lamprey extract plus human saliva), irrespective of previous exposure level. As expected, adult sea lamprey habituated to a sympatric heterospecific damage-released alarm cue (white sucker extract) and a predator cue presented at lower relative concentration (human saliva). Adult sea lamprey did not show any avoidance of the Northern water snake washing and the Amazon sailfin catfish extract (heterospecific control). This study suggests that conspecific damage-released alarm cues and PEA HCl present the best options as natural repellents in an integrated management program aimed at controlling the abundance of sea lamprey in the Laurentian Great Lakes.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Kluwer Academic Publishers","publisherLocation":"Dordrecht","doi":"10.1007/s10641-016-0503-z","usgsCitation":"Imre, I., Di Rocco, R.T., Brown, G.E., and Johnson, N., 2016, Habituation of adult sea lamprey repeatedly exposed to damage-released alarm and predator cues: Environmental Biology of Fishes, v. 99, no. 8, p. 613-620, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10641-016-0503-z.","productDescription":"8 p.","startPage":"613","endPage":"620","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-066069","costCenters":[{"id":324,"text":"Great Lakes Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":326444,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"99","issue":"8","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":6,"text":"Columbus PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2016-08-05","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"57aee525e4b0fc09faadbd40","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Imre, Istvan","contributorId":150985,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Imre","given":"Istvan","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":6585,"text":"Algoma University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":645326,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Di Rocco, Richard T.","contributorId":150984,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Di Rocco","given":"Richard","email":"","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[{"id":6586,"text":"Concordia University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":645327,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Brown, Grant E.","contributorId":173005,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Brown","given":"Grant","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":6586,"text":"Concordia University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":645328,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Johnson, Nicholas S. 0000-0002-7419-6013 njohnson@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7419-6013","contributorId":150983,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Johnson","given":"Nicholas S.","email":"njohnson@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":324,"text":"Great Lakes Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":645325,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

Because wildlife agency budgets rarely accommodate this approach, most infer cougar density from published literature, rely on short-term studies, or use hunter harvest data as a surrogate in their jurisdictions; all of which may limit accuracy and increase risk of management actions. In an effort to develop a more cost-effective long-term strategy, we evaluated a research approach using citizen scientists with trained hounds to tree cougars and collect tissue samples with biopsy darts. We then used the DNA to individually identify cougars and employed spatially explicit capture–recapture models to estimate cougar densities. Overall, 240 tissue samples were collected in northeastern Washington, USA, producing 166 genotypes (including recaptures and excluding dependent kittens) of 133 different cougars (8-25/yr) from 2003 to 2011. Mark–recapture analyses revealed a mean density of 2.2 cougars/100 km<sup>2</sup> (95% CI=1.1-4.3) and stable to decreasing population trends (β=-0.048, 95% CI=-0.106–0.011) over the 9 years of study, with an average annual harvest rate of 14% (range=7-21%). The average annual cost per year for field sampling and genotyping was US$11,265 ($422.24/sample or $610.73/successfully genotyped sample). Our results demonstrated that long-term biopsy sampling using citizen scientists can increase capture success and provide reliable cougar-density information at a reasonable

Precipitation was relatively plentiful during 2010 and 2012 but scarce during 2011, the driest spring&ndash;summer on record for the northeastern grasslands of New Mexico. Unexpectedly, fleas were 200% more abundant in 2011 than in 2010 and 2012. Prairie dogs were in 27% better condition during 2010 and 2012, and they devoted 287% more time to grooming in 2012 than in 2011. During 2012, prairie dogs provided with supplemental food and water were in 23% better condition and carried 40% fewer fleas. Collectively, these results suggest that during dry years, prairie dogs are limited by food and water, and they exhibit weakened defenses against fleas.

The necessity for making wet-weight concentration adjustments to account for natural moisture loss during incubation of viable eggs was realized.

In the absence of adjusting concentrations to the fresh wet-weight that was present at the time of egg laying, the uncorrected values exaggerated contaminant concentrations, yielding artifactual results and ultimately incorrect conclusions.

Determining a maximum level of allowable use, below which high-quality resource and experiential conditions would be sustained, was an early focus in the 1960s and 1970s. However, decades of recreation ecology research have shown that the severity and areal extent of visitor impact problems are influenced by an interrelated array of use-related, environmental, and managerial factors. This complexity, with similar findings from social science research, prompted scientists and managers to develop more comprehensive carrying capacity frameworks, including a new Visitor Use Management framework. These frameworks rely on a diverse array of management strategies and actions, often termed a &ldquo;management toolbox,&rdquo; for resolving visitor impact problems. This article reviews the most recent and relevant recreation ecology studies that have been applied in wildland settings to avoid or minimize resource impacts. The key findings and their management implications are highlighted to support the professional management of common trail, recreation site, and wildlife impact problems.

To evaluate this hypothesis, endophytic bacteria were isolated from P. australis. The majority of the shoot meristem isolates represent species from phyla Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, and Actinobacteria. We chose one species from each phylum to characterize further and to conduct growth promotion experiments in Phragmites. Bacteria tested include Bacillus amyloliquefaciens A9a, Achromobacter spanius B1, and Microbacterium oxydans B2. Isolates were characterized for known growth promotional traits, including indole acetic acid (IAA) production, secretion of hydrolytic enzymes, phosphate solubilization, and antibiosis activity. Potentially defensive antimicrobial lipopeptides were assayed for through application of co-culturing experiments and mass spectrometer analysis. B. amyloliquefaciens A9a and M. oxydans B2 produced IAA. B. amyloliquefaciens A9a secreted antifungal lipopeptides. Capability to promote growth of P. australis under low nitrogen conditions was evaluated in greenhouse experiments. All three isolates were found to increase the growth of P. australis under low soil nitrogen conditions and showed increased absorption of isotopic nitrogen into plants. This suggests that the Phragmites microbes we evaluated most likely promote growth of Phragmites by enhanced scavenging of nitrogenous compounds from the rhizosphere and transfer to host roots. Collectively, our results support the hypothesis that endophytic bacteria play a role in enhancing growth of P. australis in natural populations. Gaining a better understanding of the precise contributions and mechanisms of endophytes in enabling P. australis to develop high densities rapidly could lead to new symbiosis-based strategies for management and control of the host.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s00248-016-0793-x","usgsCitation":"Soares, M.A., Li, H., Kowalski, K., Bergen, M., Torres, M.S., and White, J.F., 2016, Functional role of bacteria from invasive <i>Phragmites australis</i> in promotion of host growth: Microbial Ecology, v. 72, no. 2, p. 407-417, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00248-016-0793-x.","productDescription":"10 p.","startPage":"407","endPage":"417","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-067030","costCenters":[{"id":324,"text":"Great Lakes Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":326467,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"New Jersey","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -74.51580047607422,\n              40.53754694556798\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.4876480102539,\n              40.550330732028456\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.47185516357422,\n              40.55372193931024\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.44095611572266,\n              40.55267850920821\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.42550659179688,\n              40.554243648263764\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.40628051757812,\n              40.53650326344772\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.3935775756836,\n              40.51353814357382\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.3990707397461,\n              40.48299278830798\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.40799713134766,\n              40.46836786826194\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.4279098510742,\n              40.458964451811894\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.47769165039062,\n              40.46575594018434\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.5089340209961,\n              40.48952074193398\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.5254135131836,\n              40.51353814357382\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.51580047607422,\n              40.53754694556798\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"72","issue":"2","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":6,"text":"Columbus PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2016-06-03","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"57aef33ce4b0fc09faae0377","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Soares, M.

Although the exact location, extent, and severity of wildfire or subsequent rainfall intensity and duration cannot be known, probabilities of fire and debris‑flow occurrence for given locations can be estimated with geospatial analysis and modeling. The purpose of this report is to provide information on which watersheds might constitute the most serious potential debris<span class=\"s1\">-</span>flow hazards in the event of a large<span class=\"s1\">-</span>scale wildfire and subsequent rainfall in the Jemez Mountains. Potential probabilities and estimated volumes of postwildfire debris flows in both the unburned and previously burned areas of the Jemez Mountains and surrounding areas were estimated using empirical debris<span class=\"s1\">-</span>flow models developed by the U.S. Geological Survey in combination with fire behavior and burn probability models developed by the U.S. Forest Service.</p><p>Of the 4,998 subbasins modeled for this study, computed debris-flow probabilities in 671 subbasins were greater than 80 percent in response to the 100<span class=\"s1\">-</span>year recurrence interval, 30-minute duration rainfall event. These subbasins ranged in size from 0.01 to 6.57 square kilometers (km<sup>2</sup>), with an average area of 0.29 km<sup>2</sup>, and were mostly steep, upstream tributaries to larger channels in the area. Modeled debris-flow volumes in 465 subbasins were greater than 10,000 cubic meters (m<sup>3</sup>), and 14 of those subbasins had modeled debris‑flow volumes greater than 100,000 m<sup>3</sup>.</p><p>The rankings of integrated relative debris<span class=\"s1\">-</span>flow hazard indexes for each subbasin were generated by multiplying the individual subbasin values for debris<span class=\"s1\">-</span>flow volume, debris‑flow probability, and average burn probability. The subbasins with integrated hazard index values in the top 2 percent typically are large, upland tributaries to canyons and channels primarily in the Upper Rio Grande and Rio Grande-Santa Fe watershed areas. No subbasins in this group have basin areas less than 1.0 km<sup>2</sup>. Many of these areas already had significant mass‑wasting episodes following the Las Conchas Fire in 2011. Other subbasins with integrated hazard index values in the top 2 percent are scattered throughout the Jemez River watershed area, including some subbasins in the interior of the Valles Caldera. Only a few subbasins in the top integrated hazard index group are in the Rio Chama watershed area.</p><p>This prewildfire assessment approach is valuable to resource managers because the analysis of the debris-flow threat is made before a wildfire occurs, which facilitates prewildfire management, planning, and mitigation. In north‑central New Mexico, widespread watershed restoration efforts are being done to safeguard vital watersheds against the threat of catastrophic wildfire. This study was designed to help select ideal locations for the restoration efforts that could have the best return on investment.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological

Of particular concern are endocrine-disrupting compounds, such as estrogens, which can affect the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis function in exposed organisms. The present study examined reproductive effects in fathead minnows exposed for 21 d to a historically estrogenic WWTP effluent. Fathead minnow breeding pairs were held in control water or 1 of 3 effluent concentrations (5%, 20%, and 100%) in a novel onsite, flow-through system providing real-time exposure. The authors examined molecular and biochemical endpoints representing key events along adverse outcome pathways linking estrogen receptor activation and other molecular initiating events to reproductive impairment. In addition, the authors used chemical analysis of the effluent to construct a chemical-gene interaction network to aid in targeted gene expression analyses and identifying potentially impacted biological pathways. Cumulative fecundity was significantly reduced in fish exposed to 100% effluent but increased in those exposed to 20% effluent, the approximate dilution factor in the receiving waters. Plasma vitellogenin concentrations in males increased in a dose-dependent manner with effluent concentration; however, male fertility was not impacted. Although in vitro analyses, analytical chemistry, and biomarker responses confirmed the effluent was estrogenic, estrogen receptor agonists were unlikely the primary driver of impaired reproduction. The results provide insights into the significance of pathway-based effects with regard to predicting adverse reproductive outcomes.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier Science","publisherLocation":"New York, NY","doi":"10.1002/etc.3228","collaboration":"U.S. Environmental Protection Agency; University of Minnesota-Duluth","usgsCitation":"Cavallin, J.E., Jensen, K.M., Kahl, M.D., Villeneuve, D.L., Lee, K., Schroeder, A.L., Mayasich, J., Eid, E.P., Nelson, K.R., Milsk, R.Y., Blackwell, B., Berninger, J., LaLone, C.A., Blanskma, C., Jicha, T.M., Elonen, C.M., Johnson, R.C., and Ankley, G., 2016, Pathway-based approaches for assessment of real-time exposure to an estrogenic wastewater treatment plant effluent on fathead minnow reproduction: Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, v. 35, no. 3, p. 702-716, https://doi.org/10.1002/etc.3228.","productDescription":"15 p.","startPage":"702","endPage":"716","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-065529","costCenters":[{"id":392,"text":"Minnesota Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":326390,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":326389,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1002/etc.3228"}],"volume":"35","issue":"3","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":4,"text":"Rolla PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2015-09-01","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"57ad93a1e4b0d18356765103","chorus":{"doi":"10.1002/etc.3228","url":"http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/etc.3228","publisher":"Wiley-Blackwell","authors":"Cavallin Jenna E., Jensen Kathleen M., Kahl Michael D., Villeneuve Daniel L., Lee Kathy E., Schroeder Anthony L., Mayasich Joe, Eid Evan P., Nelson Krysta R., Milsk Rebecca Y., Blackwell Brett R., Berninger Jason P., LaLone Carlie A., Blanksma Chad, Jicha Terri, Elonen Colleen, Johnson Rodney, Ankley Gerald T.","journalName":"Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry","publicationDate":"2/9/2016"},"contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Cavallin, Jenna E.","contributorId":146304,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Cavallin","given":"Jenna","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":645210,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Jensen, Kathleen M.","contributorId":84492,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Jensen","given":"Kathleen","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":645211,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Kahl, Michael D.","contributorId":146306,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kahl","given":"Michael","email":"","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":645212,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Villeneuve, Daniel L.","contributorId":141084,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Villeneuve","given":"Daniel","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":6784,"text":"US EPA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":645213,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Lee, Kathy 0000-0002-7683-1367 klee@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7683-1367","contributorId":2538,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lee","given":"Kathy","email":"klee@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":589,"text":"Toxic Substances Hydrology Program","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":392,"text":"Minnesota Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":645214,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Schroeder, Anthony L.","contributorId":173596,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Schroeder","given":"Anthony","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":6914,"text":"U.S. Environmental Protection Agency","active":true,"usgs":false},{"id":12503,"text":"University of Minnesota -

Complementary approaches using geospatial analysis and literature synthesis integrated information on ecosystem biogeography and biodiversity, climate projections, vegetation dynamics, soil and water characteristics, anthropogenic threats, conservation status, sea-level rise, and coastal flooding impacts. Across a diverse set of ecosystems—ranging in size from dozens of square meters to thousands of square kilometers—quantitative and qualitative assessments identified types of climate-change exposure, evaluated sensitivity, and explored potential adaptive capacity. These analyses highlighted key gaps in scientific understanding and suggested priorities for future research. Together, these studies help create a foundation for ecosystem-level analysis of climate-change vulnerability to support effective biodiversity conservation in the southeastern United States.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/fs20163052","usgsCitation":"Cartwright, J.M., and Costanza, Jennifer, 2016,

Assessing the potential vulnerability of ecosystems to future changes in climate is an important first step in prioritizing and planning for conservation. Although assessments of climate change vulnerability commonly are done for species, fewer have been done for ecosystems. To aid regional conservation planning efforts, we assessed climate change vulnerability for ecosystems in the Southeastern United States and Caribbean.</p><p>First, we solicited input from experts to create a list of candidate ecosystems for assessment. From that list, 12 ecosystems were selected for a vulnerability assessment that was based on a synthesis of available geographic information system (GIS) data and literature related to 3 components of vulnerability—sensitivity, exposure, and adaptive capacity. This literature and data synthesis comprised “Phase I” of the assessment. Sensitivity is the degree to which the species or processes in the ecosystem are affected by climate. Exposure is the likely future change in important climate and sea level variables. Adaptive capacity is the degree to which ecosystems can adjust to changing conditions. Where available, GIS data relevant to each of these components were used. For example, we summarized observed and projected climate, protected areas existing in 2011, projected sea-level rise, and projected urbanization across each ecosystem’s distribution. These summaries were supplemented with information in the literature, and a short narrative assessment was compiled for each ecosystem. We also summarized all information into a qualitative vulnerability rating for each ecosystem.</p><p>Next, for 2 of the 12 ecosystems (East Gulf Coastal Plain Near-Coast Pine Flatwoods and Nashville Basin Limestone Glade and Woodland), the NatureServe Habitat Climate Change Vulnerability Index (HCCVI) framework was used as an alternative approach for assessing vulnerability. Use of the HCCVI approach comprised “Phase II” of the assessment. This approach uses summaries of GIS data and models to develop a series of numeric indices for components of vulnerability. We incorporated many of the data sources used in Phase I, but added the results of several other data sources, including climate envelope modeling and vegetation dynamics modeling. The results of Phase II were high and low numeric vulnerability ratings for mid-century and the end of century for each ecosystem. The high and low ratings represented the potential range of vulnerability scores owing to uncertainties in future climate conditions and ecosystem effects.</p><p>Of the 12 ecosystems assessed in the first approach, five were rated as having high vulnerability (Caribbean Coastal Mangrove, Caribbean Montane Wet Elfin Forest, East Gulf Coastal Plain Southern Loess Bluff Forest, Edwards Plateau Limestone Shrubland, and Nashville Basin Limestone Glade and Woodland). Six ecosystems had medium vulnerability, and one ecosystem had low vulnerability. For the two ecosystems assessed with both approaches, vulnerability ratings generally agreed. The assessment concluded by comparing the two approaches, identifying critical research needs, and making suggestions for future ecosystem vulnerability assessments in the Southeast and beyond. Research needs include reducing uncertainty in the degree of climate exposure likely in the future, as well as acquiring more information on how climate might affect biotic interactions and hydrologic processes. Ideally, a comprehensive vulnerability assessment would include both the narrative summaries that resulted from the synthesis in Phase I, as well as a numeric index that incorporates uncertainty as in Phase II.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/ofr20161073","usgsCitation":"Costanza, Jennifer, Beck, Scott, Pyne, Milo,

Maintenance of this biodiversity depends upon regimes of abiotic stress and disturbance, incorporating factors such as soil surface temperature, widely fluctuating hydrologic conditions, fires, flood scouring, and episodic droughts that may be subject to alteration by climate change. Over several decades, numerous localized, site-level investigations have yielded important information about the floristics, physical environments, and ecological dynamics of these insular ecosystems; however, the literature from these investigations has generally remained fragmented. This report consists of literature syntheses for eight categories of insular ecosystems of the southeastern United States, concerning (1) physical geography, (2) ecological determinants of community structures including vegetation dynamics and regimes of abiotic stress and disturbance, (3) contributions to regional and global biodiversity, (4) historical and current anthropogenic threats and conservation approaches, and (5) key knowledge gaps relevant to conservation, particularly in terms of climate-change effects on biodiversity. This regional synthesis was undertaken to discern patterns across ecosystems, identify knowledge gaps, and lay the groundwork for future analyses of climate-change vulnerability. Findings from this synthesis indicate that, despite their importance to regional and global biodiversity, insular ecosystems of the southeastern United States have been subjected to a variety of direct and indirect human alterations. In many cases, important questions remain concerning key determinants of ecosystem function. In particular, few empirical investigations in these ecosystems have focused on possible climate-change effects, despite the well-documented ecological effects of climate change at a global level. Long-term management of these ecosystems could benefit from increased scientific effort to characterize and quantify the linkages between changing environmental conditions and the ecological processes that sustain biodiversity.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/pp1828","usgsCitation":"Cartwright, J.M., and Wolfe, W.J.,

The U.S. Geological Survey has operated two continuous real-time water-quality monitoring stations since 1995 on the Little Arkansas River in Kansas. Regression models were developed to establish relations between discretely sampled constituent concentrations and continuously measured physical properties to compute concentrations of those constituents of interest. Site-specific regression models were originally published in 2000 for the near Halstead and near Sedgwick U.S. Geological Survey streamgaging stations and the site-specific regression models were then updated in 2003. This report updates those regression models using discrete and continuous data collected during May 1998 through August 2014. In addition to the constituents listed in the 2003 update, new regression models were developed for total organic carbon. The real-time computations of water-quality concentrations and loads are available at <a href=\"http://nrtwq.usgs.gov\" data-mce-href=\"http://nrtwq.usgs.gov\">http://nrtwq.usgs.gov</a>. The water-quality information in this report is important to the city of Wichita because water-quality information allows for real-time quantification and characterization of chemicals of concern (including chloride), in addition to nutrients, sediment, bacteria, and atrazine transported in the Little Arkansas River. The water-quality information in this report aids in the decision making for water treatment before artificial recharge.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/ofr20161057","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the city of Wichita, Kansas","usgsCitation":"Rasmussen, P.P., Eslick, P.J., and Ziegler, A.C., 2016, Relations between continuous real-time physical properties and discrete water-quality constituents in the Little Arkansas River, south-central Kansas, 1998-2014: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 2016–1057, 20 p., https://dx.doi.org/10.3133/ofr20161057.","productDescription":"Report: ii, 16 p.; Appendixes 1-2","numberOfPages":"21","onlineOnly":"Y","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","ipdsId":"IP-073013","costCenters":[{"id":353,"text":"Kansas Water Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":326275,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2016/1057/ofr20161057.pdf","text":"Report","size":"783 kB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"OFR 2016–1057"},{"id":326274,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2016/1057/coverthb.jpg"},{"id":326280,"rank":4,"type":{"id":3,"text":"Appendix"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2016/1057/ofr20161057_appendix2.pdf","text":"Appendix 2","size":"2.90 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"OFR 2016–1057 Appendix 2"},{"id":326276,"rank":3,"type":{"id":3,"text":"Appendix"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2016/1057/ofr20161057_appendix1.pdf","text":"Appendix 1","size":"2.65 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"OFR 2016–1057 Appendix 1"}],"country":"United States","state":"Kansas","otherGeospatial":"Little Arkansas River Basin","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -98.2,\n              37.75\n            ],\n            [\n              -98.2,\n              38.6\n            ],\n            [\n              -97.25,\n              38.6\n            ],\n            [\n              -97.25,\n              37.75\n            ],\n            [\n              -98.2,\n              37.75\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","contact":"<p>Director, Kansas Water Science Center<br />U.S. Geological Survey<br />4821 Quail Crest Place <br />Lawrence, KS 66049</p>\n<p><a href=\"http://ks.water.usgs.gov\">http://ks.water.usgs.gov</a></p>","tableOfContents":"<ul>\n<li>Abstract</li>\n<li>Introduction</li>\n<li>Methods</li>\n<li>Results of Regression Analysis for Selected Constituents</li>\n<li>Summary</li>\n<li>References Cited</li>\n</ul>","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":4,"text":"Rolla PSC"},"publishedDate":"2016-08-11","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2016-08-11","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"57ad93a2e4b0d1835676510a","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Rasmussen, Patrick P. 0000-0002-3287-6010 pras@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3287-6010","contributorId":3530,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rasmussen","given":"Patrick","email":"pras@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":353,"text":"Kansas Water Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":632395,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Eslick, Patrick J. peslick@usgs.gov","contributorId":148966,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Eslick","given":"Patrick J.","email":"peslick@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":353,"text":"Kansas Water Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":645021,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Ziegler, Andrew C. aziegler@usgs.gov","contributorId":433,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ziegler","given":"Andrew C.","email":"aziegler@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":353,"text":"Kansas Water Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":645022,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

A WY is defined as October 1–September 30. Selenium is a trace element that bioaccumulates in aquatic food chains and can cause reproductive failure, deformities, and other harmful effects. This report presents information on the dissolved-selenium loads at 18 sites in the lower Gunnison River Basin for WYs 2011–2014. Annual dissolved-selenium loads were calculated at 5 sites with continuous U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) streamflow gages, whereas instantaneous dissolved-selenium loads were calculated for the remaining 13 sites using water-quality samples that had been collected periodically during WYs 2011–2014. Annual dissolved-selenium loads for WY 2014 ranged from 336 pounds (lb) at Uncompahgre River at Colona to 13,300 lb at Gunnison River near Grand Junction (Whitewater). Most sites in the basin had a median instantaneous dissolved-selenium load of less than 20.0 lb per day. In general, dissolved-selenium loads at Gunnison River main-stem sites showed an increase from upstream to downstream.</p><p>The State of Colorado water-quality standard for dissolved selenium of 4.6 micrograms per liter (µg/L) was compared to the 85th percentiles for dissolved selenium at selected water-quality sites. Annual 85th percentiles for dissolved selenium were calculated for the five core USGS sites having streamflow gages using estimated dissolved-selenium concentrations from linear regression models. These annual 85th percentiles in WY 2014 ranged from 0.97 µg/L at Uncompahgre River at Colona to 16.7 µg/L at Uncompahgre River at Delta. Uncompahgre River at Delta and Whitewater were the only core sites where water samples exceeded the State of Colorado water-quality standard for dissolved selenium of 4.6 µg/L.</p><p>Instantaneous 85th percentiles for dissolved selenium were calculated for sites with sufficient data using water-quality samples collected during WYs 2011–2014. The instantaneous 85th percentiles for samples for WY 2014 ranged from 1.1 µg/L at Uncompahgre River at Colona to 125 µg/L at Loutzenhizer Arroyo at North River Road.</p><p>A trend analysis was completed for Whitewater to determine if dissolved-selenium loads are increasing or decreasing. The trend analysis indicates a decrease of 8,000 lb from WY 1986 to WY 2014, a 34.8 percent reduction during the time period, and an additional 6.2 percent reduction from a reported 28.6 percent reduction during WYs 1986–2008. The trend analysis for WY 1992 to WY 2014 indicates a decrease of 5,800 lb per year, or 27.9 percent.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/ofr20161129","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the Bureau of Reclamation","usgsCitation":"Henneberg, M.F., 2016, 2014 annual summary of the lower Gunnison River Basin Selenium Management Program water-quality monitoring, Colorado: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 2016–1129, 25 p., https://dx.doi.org/10.3133/ofr20161129.

Although baseline conditions are rapidly changing, effective decisions about research and monitoring investments must be based on reliable information and plausible future scenarios. For the first time, this synthesis presents a comprehensive evaluation of the marine fish fauna from both seas in a single reference.

I used multiple regression to assess effects of streamflow and climate (12&ndash;14 years of data) or climate alone (up to 60 years of data) on radial growth of clonal narrowleaf cottonwood (</span><i>Populus angustifolia</i><span>), a foundation species in the arid, Closed Basin portion of the San Luis Valley, Colorado. I collected increment cores from trees (14&ndash;90&nbsp;cm DBH) at four sites along each of Sand and Deadman creeks (total&nbsp;</span><i>N</i><span>&nbsp;=&nbsp;85), including both perennial and ephemeral reaches. Analyses on trees &lt;110&nbsp;m from the stream channel explained 33&ndash;64% of the variation in standardized growth index (SGI) over the period having discharge measurements. Only 3 of 7 models included a streamflow variable; inclusion of prior-year conditions was common. Models for trees farther from the channel or over a deep water table explained 23&ndash;71% of SGI variability, and 4 of 5 contained a streamflow variable. Analyses using solely climate variables over longer time periods explained 17&ndash;85% of SGI variability, and 10 of 12 included a variable indexing summer precipitation. Three large, abrupt shifts in recent decades from wet to dry conditions (indexed by a seasonal Palmer Drought Severity Index) coincided with dramatically reduced radial growth. Each shift was presumably associated with branch dieback that produced a legacy effect apparent in many SGI series: uncharacteristically low SGI in the year following the shift. My results suggest trees in locations distant from the active channel rely on the regional shallow unconfined aquifer, summer rainfall, or both to meet water demands. The landscape-level differences in the water supplies sustaining these trees imply variable effects from shifts in winter-versus monsoon-related precipitation, and from climate change versus streamflow or groundwater management.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Academic Press","publisherLocation":"London","doi":"10.1016/j.jaridenv.2016.07.005","usgsCitation":"Andersen, D., 2016, Climate, streamflow, and legacy effects on growth of riparian <i>Populus angustifolia</i> in the arid San Luis Valley, Colorado: Journal of Arid Environments, v. 134, p. 104-121, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jaridenv.2016.07.005.","startPage":"104","endPage":"121","numberOfPages":"18","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-071295","costCenters":[{"id":291,"text":"Fort Collins Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":470671,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jaridenv.2016.07.005","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":326343,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","otherGeospatial":"San Luis Valley","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -105.84983825683594,\n              37.62075814551956\n            ],\n            [\n              -105.84983825683594,\n              38.03078569382294\n            ],\n            [\n              -105.47561645507812,\n              38.03078569382294\n            ],\n            [\n              -105.47561645507812,\n              37.62075814551956\n            ],\n            [\n              -105.84983825683594,\n              37.62075814551956\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"134","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":2,"text":"Denver PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"57ac4227e4b0d183567452ec","chorus":{"doi":"10.1016/j.jaridenv.2016.07.005","url":"http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jaridenv.2016.07.005","publisher":"Elsevier BV","authors":"Andersen Douglas C.","journalName":"Journal of Arid Environments","publicationDate":"11/2016"},"contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Andersen, Douglas doug_andersen@usgs.gov","contributorId":152661,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Andersen","given":"Douglas","email":"doug_andersen@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":291,"text":"Fort Collins Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":645133,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

Geologic sequestration of anthropogenic CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;in depleted oil reservoirs is one option for reducing CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;emissions to the atmosphere while enhancing oil recovery. In order to evaluate the feasibility of using enhanced oil recovery (EOR) sites in the United States for permanent CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;storage, an active multi-stage miscible CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>flooding project in the Permian Basin (North Ward Estes Field, near Wickett, Texas) was investigated. In addition, two major natural CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;reservoirs in the southeastern Paradox Basin (McElmo Dome and Doe Canyon) were also investigated as they provide CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;for EOR operations in the Permian Basin. Produced gas and water were collected from three different CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;flooding phases (with different start dates) within the North Ward Estes Field to evaluate possible CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;storage mechanisms and amounts of total CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>retention. McElmo Dome and Doe Canyon were sampled for produced gas to determine the noble gas and stable isotope signature of the original injected EOR gas and to confirm the source of this naturally-occurring CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>. As expected, the natural CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>produced from McElmo Dome and Doe Canyon is a mix of mantle and crustal sources. When comparing CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;injection and production rates for the CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;floods in the North Ward Estes Field, it appears that CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;retention in the reservoir decreased over the course of the three injections, retaining 39%, 49% and 61% of the injected CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;for the 2008, 2010, and 2013 projects, respectively, characteristic of maturing CO</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;miscible flood projects.
