However, the linear shape of fuel breaks greatly increases treatment perimeter: area and thus increased potential for edge effects, e.g., invasions by exotic plants. Potential for edge effects are further increased by the disturbances associated with fuel-break implementation. Fire risk in perennial-dominated and sagebrush-steppe rangelands are increased by exotic species, such as cheatgrass and other associated annuals, and therefore invasions after fuel-break implementation are problematic, yet have rarely been evaluated. Abundances of dominant invaders, cheatgrass and Russian thistle, were measured along treated and neighboring untreated edges in 40 paired plots along ∼61 km of 60-m wide fuel breaks. Fuel breaks were constructed using a variety of shrub-cutting and herbicide applications 1–4 yr before measurement. Generalized linear mixed effect models revealed that fractional cover significantly increased in treated compared with untreated areas by 0.02–0.12 for cheatgrass and 0–0.06 for Russian thistle within 9 m of treatment boundaries (on a scale of 0-1). We neither detected increased invasion in adjacent and untreated areas nor gradients of increasing invasion with proximity to treatment boundaries. Although these findings reveal invasions that were otherwise undetected across the entire 60 m width of fuel breaks, invasion levels did not surpass nominal management thresholds for fire behavior or risk of conversion to annual grasslands.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.rama.2024.08.031","usgsCitation":"Price, S.J., Germino, M., and Watt, C.R., 2025, Edge effects along roadside fuel treatments in sagebrush steppe: Rangeland Ecology and Management, v. 98, p. 155-159, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rama.2024.08.031.","productDescription":"5 p.","startPage":"155","endPage":"159","ipdsId":"IP-164496","costCenters":[{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":463846,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"98","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Price, Samuel J. 0000-0003-4172-4139","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4172-4139","contributorId":297001,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Price","given":"Samuel","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":918187,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Germino, Matthew J. 0000-0001-6326-7579","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6326-7579","contributorId":251901,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Germino","given":"Matthew J.","affiliations":[{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":918188,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Watt, Chloe Rose 0009-0008-3238-1764","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0009-0008-3238-1764","contributorId":345937,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Watt","given":"Chloe","email":"","middleInitial":"Rose","affiliations":[{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":918189,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Use of multiple harvest methods, including hunting over bait, is intended to increase harvest success rates to meet harvest and population management objectives. However, black bear population growth can be influenced by food availability, and some speculate the use of bait may inadvertently increase bear abundance through food resource supplementation. We collected hair from black bears captured from 2005–2019 and a selection of potential food items, including those used as bait from 3 study areas in Maine, USA, with different levels of human influence. We used stable isotope analysis of the black bear hair and food item samples to evaluate the contribution of different identified food groups to the diet of individual bears. We found no evidence that greater contribution of human food resources, including bait, increased the number of cubs per litter for reproductive females or that human foods comprised a greater part of the diet in years when natural food resources were less abundant. Approximately 69% of black bear harvest occurred over bait. We found the probability of reproductive-age females to be harvested increased with average representation of human foods with high carbon enrichment (including bait) in their diet, but the relationship was weak, likely because of sampling constraints. Additionally, the probability of being harvested was greater in years when natural food resources were scarce. We conclude that bait is not available on the landscape in large enough amounts or for a sufficient amount of time in Maine to substantially influence female reproduction. Our results indicate hunting over bait is an effective tool in a state that is attempting to maintain a stable bear population via harvest, and dispels conjecture that hunting over bait may increase cub production and offset the intention of harvest.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"The Wildlife Society","doi":"10.1002/jwmg.22681","usgsCitation":"Morin, D.J., Vashon, J.H., O’Neal,

Avian predation on recently released Chinook Salmon (<i>Oncorhynchus tshawytscha</i>) in the Upper Klamath Basin has not been studied. To provide fisheries managers with the most up-to-date information, we estimated predation rates on passive integrated transponder tagged (PIT) suckers and Chinook Salmon by breeding colonies of American White Pelicans (<i>Pelecanus erythrorhynchos</i>), Double-crested Cormorants (<i>Nannopterum auritum</i>), Caspian Terns (<i>Hydroprogne caspia</i>), California Gulls (<i>Larus californicus</i>), Ring-billed Gulls (<i>L. delawarensis</i>), Great Blue Herons (<i>Ardea herodias</i>), and Great Egrets (<i>A. alba</i>) during 2021–2023. Predation rate estimates were variable depending on the fish species, age-class (juvenile, adult), waterbody (Upper Klamath Lake, Clear Lake Reservoir, Sheepy Lake), and year. Results indicated that avian predation rates were highest on juvenile suckers and on suckers in Clear Lake Reservoir. SARP fish released in the spring/summer were more likely to be consumed by breeding birds than those released in the fall/winter, although the number of fish released in the fall/winter that survived to the spring/summer was unknown and could bias predation estimates low. Predation rate estimates on Chinook Salmon varied by year, release timing (spring/summer, fall/winter), release location (Upper Klamath Lake, Klamath River), and age-class (subyearling, yearling). The location and size of colonies were also highly variable depending on the bird species, colony location, and year. Future research could focus on identifying biotic and abiotic factors associated with sucker susceptibility to piscivorous colonial waterbirds and determining to what degree avian predation limits the recovery of suckers in the Upper Klamath Basin. </p>","language":"English","publisher":"Bird Research Northwest (BRNW) website: birdresearchnw.org","collaboration":"RTR (RealTime Research) Report, Bureau of Reclaimation","usgsCitation":"Banet, N., Payton, Q., Evans, A., Paul-Wilson, R.K., Krause, J.R., Hayes, B., and Benham, E., 2025, Predation of Lost River and Shortnose suckers by piscivorous colonial waterbirds in the Upper Klamath Basin: An analysis of predation effects during 2021–2023, 34 p.","productDescription":"34 p.","ipdsId":"IP-170462","costCenters":[{"id":654,"text":"Western Fisheries Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":481605,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California, Oregon","otherGeospatial":"Upper Klamath basin","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -122.28212299679791,\n              42.72419140413197\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.28212299679791,\n              41.744754458675885\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.76750924697343,\n              41.744754458675885\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.76750924697343,\n              42.72419140413197\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.28212299679791,\n              42.72419140413197\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Banet, Nathan B","contributorId":350420,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Banet","given":"Nathan B","affiliations":[{"id":83736,"text":"Real Time Research, Inc., Bend, OR","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":925985,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Payton, Quinn","contributorId":149990,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Payton","given":"Quinn","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":17879,"text":"Real Time Research, Inc., 231 SW Scalehouse Loop, Suite 101, Bend, OR 97702","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":925986,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Evans, Allen","contributorId":149989,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Evans","given":"Allen","affiliations":[{"id":17879,"text":"Real Time Research, Inc., 231 SW Scalehouse Loop, Suite 101, Bend, OR 97702","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":925987,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Paul-Wilson, Rachael Katelyn 0000-0002-8213-1084","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8213-1084","contributorId":298894,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Paul-Wilson","given":"Rachael","email":"","middleInitial":"Katelyn","affiliations":[{"id":654,"text":"Western Fisheries Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":925988,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Krause, Jacob Richard 0000-0002-9804-2481","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9804-2481","contributorId":300701,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Krause","given":"Jacob","email":"","middleInitial":"Richard","affiliations":[{"id":654,"text":"Western Fisheries Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":925989,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Hayes, Brian S. 0000-0001-8229-4070","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8229-4070","contributorId":37022,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hayes","given":"Brian S.","affiliations":[{"id":654,"text":"Western Fisheries Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":925990,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Benham, Erin Marie 0009-0000-2972-1897","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0009-0000-2972-1897","contributorId":350421,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Benham","given":"Erin Marie","affiliations":[{"id":654,"text":"Western Fisheries Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":925991,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}

Anticipating future distribution shifts under changing climate will be critical to climate adaptation and conservation efforts in these ecosystems. Here, we evaluate drivers of PJ tree species’ distributions and project changes in response to future climate change. We developed species distribution models with dryland-focused predictors to project environmental suitability changes across the entirety of three pinyon and six juniper species ranges. We identify areas of robust suitability change by combining suitability projections from multiple emissions scenarios and time periods. PJ species’ suitabilities respond to many temperature and moisture covariates expected to change in the future. Projected responses among PJ species are highly variable, ranging from modest declines with concurrent gains for overall little net change to wide-ranging declines with no gains for overall range contractions. Environmental suitability is projected to decline broadly across the arid United States Southwest and remain relatively stable across the northern Great Basin and Colorado Plateau.

We found that species were projected to experience more losses than gains in suitability, for overall range shrinks rather than shifts.

We identify and describe two types of coupled events, 1) spasmodic burst coupled events, a burst of volcano tectonic (VT) events coupled with a large eruptive explosion (21 December 1994 and 5 March 1996), and 2) explosion-couplet coupled events, a pair of events with a deeper first event and whose second event correlates with a small gas emission or explosion. Explosion-couplets occurred with the onset of magmatic ash dominated eruptions and their properties are very useful for forecasting magmatic eruptions at Popocatépetl volcano. Measurable quantities including the time between the first and second phase, daily numbers of events, and the amplitude ratio between the second and first phase systematically changed as the first two domes approached the surface between March and June 1996. Interevent times decreased from many tens of seconds to a few seconds, while amplitude ratios increased from about 2 to 10 or more. Event numbers increased prior to and during initial dome extrusion. These changes were used to forecast the eruption of the first two domes. We also report on another unusual type of low frequency seismicity that accompanied emissions called fluidized bed events. Fluidized bed events occurred following the initial eruption on 21 December 1994, beginning mid-January 1995, when SO</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;emissions were initially elevated, and the conduit was open. Fluidized bed events began to wane in late March through the end of May 1995 as did SO</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;emissions.

Both the incidence of storms and drier-than-average conditions in the preceding wet season (April–June) decreased survival. The sex of bird and net hours influenced capture probability, but weather influences on recruitment were equivocal. During nonstorm years, mean population growth was stable at 1.019 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.962, 1.098) but dropped to 0.843 (95% CI: 0.795, 0.846) in storm years. Increasing frequency of storms, such as back-to-back years, would likely push the growth rate lower. A protracted pattern of increased storm frequency, especially if coupled with a subsequent drought during the wet season, may lead to localized extirpations or strongly reduced populations.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Oxford Academic","doi":"10.1093/ornithology/ukae052","usgsCitation":"Boal, C.W., and Bibles, B., 2025, Weather events influence survival and recruitment of Coereba flaveola (Bananaquit) in the Caribbean: Ornithology, v. 142, no. 1, ukae052, 10 p., https://doi.org/10.1093/ornithology/ukae052.","productDescription":"ukae052, 10 p.","ipdsId":"IP-161040","costCenters":[{"id":198,"text":"Coop Res Unit Atlanta","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":496380,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1093/ornithology/ukae052","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":482455,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United Kingdom","otherGeospatial":"British Virgin Islands, Guana Island","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -64.57251334042952,\n              18.48346542262051\n            ],\n            [\n              -64.57922963213755,\n              18.48346542262051\n            ],\n            [\n              -64.57922963213755,\n              18.473199066754887\n            ],\n            [\n              -64.57251334042952,\n              18.473199066754887\n            ],\n            [\n              -64.57251334042952,\n              18.48346542262051\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"142","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2024-10-15","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Boal, Clint W. 0000-0001-6008-8911 cboal@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6008-8911","contributorId":1909,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Boal","given":"Clint","email":"cboal@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":198,"text":"Coop Res Unit Atlanta","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":928355,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Bibles, Brent D.","contributorId":341439,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Bibles","given":"Brent D.","affiliations":[{"id":81739,"text":"Unity College","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":928356,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

Among the most notable characteristics of behavioural research, compared to other established approaches in sub-lethal ecotoxicology (e.g. reproductive and developmental bioassays), are the wide range of study designs being used and the diversity of endpoints considered. At the same time, environmental hazard and risk assessment, which underpins regulatory decisions to protect the environment from potentially harmful chemicals, often recommends that ecotoxicological data be produced following accepted and validated test guidelines. These guidelines typically do not address behavioural changes, meaning that these, often sensitive, effects are not represented in hazard and risk assessments. Here, we propose a new tool, the EthoCRED evaluation method, for assessing the relevance and reliability of behavioural ecotoxicity data, which considers the unique requirements and challenges encountered in this field. This method and accompanying reporting recommendations are designed to serve as an extension of the “Criteria for Reporting and Evaluating Ecotoxicity Data (CRED)” project. As such, EthoCRED can both accommodate the wide array of experimental design approaches seen in behavioural ecotoxicology, and could be readily implemented into regulatory frameworks as deemed appropriate by policy makers of different jurisdictions to allow better integration of knowledge gained from behavioural testing into environmental protection. Furthermore, through our reporting recommendations, we aim to improve the reporting of behavioural studies in the peer-reviewed literature, and thereby increase their usefulness to inform chemical regulation.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/brv.13154","usgsCitation":"Bertram, M.G., Agerstrand, M., Thore, E.S., Allen, J., Balshine, S., Brand, J.A., Brooks,

Logjam size increased downstream, whereas logjam density and large wood recruits declined (upstream = 6 logjams/km, 33 recruits/km; downstream = 0.3 logjams/km, 6 recruits/km), particularly below a dam that reduced downstream wood transport and log-trapping locations (i.e., bars). Juvenile salmon occupied 68% of logjams; mid-network logjams had the highest densities (mean = 0.85 fish/m</span><sup>2</sup><span>). We modeled juvenile salmon counts with logjam-, stream reach-, and neighborhood-scale (&gt; 1 km) predictors. Covariates that best predicted juvenile salmon densities included bankfull flow and stream power at reach scales in addition to growth potential, spawning habitat quality, and logjam area within 1 km of the focal logjam at neighborhood-scales. Multiscale perspectives that link landscape characteristics, wood dynamics, and instream modifications with juvenile salmon production will be important to facilitate conservation and management of boreal streams.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/rra.4387","usgsCitation":"Cathcart, C.N., Falke, J.A., Fox, J., Henszey, R., and Lininger, K., 2025, Multiscale processes drive formation of logjam habitats and use by juvenile Chinook salmon across a boreal stream network in Alaska: River Research and Applications, v. 41, no. 3, p. 593-608, https://doi.org/10.1002/rra.4387.","productDescription":"16 p.","startPage":"593","endPage":"608","ipdsId":"IP-152306","costCenters":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":487895,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/rra.4387","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":485218,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Alaska","otherGeospatial":"Chena River watershed study area","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -144.67807493315854,\n              65.20202904924713\n            ],\n            [\n              -148.24621186080563,\n              65.20202904924713\n            ],\n            [\n              -148.24621186080563,\n              64.49202325327195\n            ],\n            [\n              -144.67807493315854,\n              64.49202325327195\n            ],\n            [\n              -144.67807493315854,\n              65.20202904924713\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"41","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2024-10-10","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Cathcart, Charles N.","contributorId":317814,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Cathcart","given":"Charles","email":"","middleInitial":"N.","affiliations":[{"id":7058,"text":"Alaska Department of Fish and Game","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":934944,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Falke, Jeffrey A. 0000-0002-6670-8250 jfalke@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6670-8250","contributorId":5195,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Falke","given":"Jeffrey","email":"jfalke@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":934945,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Fox, Jimmy","contributorId":354009,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Fox","given":"Jimmy","affiliations":[{"id":6661,"text":"US Fish and Wildlife Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":934946,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Henszey, Robert","contributorId":354010,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Henszey","given":"Robert","affiliations":[{"id":6661,"text":"US Fish and Wildlife Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":934947,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Lininger, Katherine","contributorId":354011,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Lininger","given":"Katherine","affiliations":[{"id":36621,"text":"University of Colorado","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":934948,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

In advance of the 2025 PRVI NSHM update, we created three geologic input databases to summarize new onshore and offshore fault source information in the northern Caribbean region between 62°–70° W and 16°–21° N. These databases, of fault sections, fault‐zone polygons, and geologic estimates of fault activity (fault‐slip rate and earthquake recurrence intervals) at specific sites, document updates to fault parameters used in prior seismic hazard models in PRVI. Fault sources were reviewed from published studies since 2003, which document substantial changes to the understanding of fault location, geometry, or activity. New fault section sources were added for features that meet the criteria of (1) length ≥7&nbsp;km, (2) unequivocal evidence of recurrent tectonic Quaternary activity, and (3) documentation that is publicly available in a peer‐reviewed source. In addition, we revised several broad areal sources, such as the Mona and Anegada extensional zones. The 2003 model included three fault sections and two fault‐zone polygons (areal sources). These databases include 35 fault sections, 6 fault‐zone polygons, and 51 earthquake geology sites. To characterize fault activity rates, slip‐rate bins were assigned based on landscape expression and paleoseismic trench observations for faults without published slip‐rate sites. Additional fault sources were evaluated but not included in these databases due to a lack of published information about fault location, geometry, or recurrent Quaternary activity.

Recent advances in MEMS technologies enable the design of instruments with improved capabilities that also allow the recording of small signals. As a result, MEMS can be useful across a broad dynamic range and for both major earthquakes and smaller magnitude events. Here, we analyze the performance of a MEMS‐based accelerometer with the capability of real‐time data transmission. We discuss the self‐noise level, dynamic range, and sensitivity, along with the timing precision and data transmission latency, and compare these parameters to other MEMS‐based instruments. We also summarize observations from a regional network deployed in southern Mexico over a period of 3+ yr for the purpose of earthquake early warning. In addition to the sensor evaluation, we present a large, openly available data set of strong motion data from the Mexican network that comprises continuous ground‐motion records from 24 accelerometers in the period between 2017 and 2022.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Seismological Society of America","doi":"10.1785/0220230272","usgsCitation":"Kuna, V., Ringler, A.T., and Melgar, D., 2025, Evaluation of an open earthquake early warning system in Mexico, and laboratory tests of their sensors: Seismological Research Letters, v. 96, no. 2A, p. 980-989, https://doi.org/10.1785/0220230272.","productDescription":"10 p.","startPage":"980","endPage":"989","ipdsId":"IP-163392","costCenters":[{"id":78686,"text":"Geologic Hazards Science Center - Seismology / Geomagnetism","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":462781,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"96","issue":"2A","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2024-10-03","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Kuna, Vaclav","contributorId":345061,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kuna","given":"Vaclav","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":82475,"text":"The Institute of Geophysics of the Czech Academy of Sciences","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":915486,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Ringler, Adam T. 0000-0002-9839-4188 aringler@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9839-4188","contributorId":3946,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ringler","given":"Adam","email":"aringler@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[{"id":300,"text":"Geologic Hazards Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":915487,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Melgar, Diego","contributorId":341315,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Melgar","given":"Diego","affiliations":[{"id":6604,"text":"University of Oregon","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":915488,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Although the water needs of these landscapes were not considered at the time water allocations were first negotiated, these needs were recognized in subsequent legislation and policy. Management goals address a range of aquatic and riparian resources, including fine sediment (sand, silt, and clay) which, in Grand Canyon, is important for ecological, cultural, and recreational resources. Over ~30 years, stakeholders, resource managers, and scientists collectively developed operational strategies for sediment management to meet goals outlined by an adaptive management program. However, prolonged drought, or “aridification,” resulting in declining runoff and the lowest reservoir storage elevations in decades has challenged those strategies. The paradigm for sustainable sediment management relies on (1) sand accumulation on the bed of the Colorado River during periods of sediment-rich tributary floods from summer/fall thunderstorms, and (2) dam-released controlled (artificial) floods, referred to as High-Flow Experiments (HFEs), to redistribute the accumulated sand to rebuild eroded bar and floodplain deposits. The management protocol, which specifies narrowly defined sand accumulation periods and HFE implementation windows, is based on implementing HFEs in late fall during the period of greatest sediment enrichment, before higher winter releases for hydropower erode the accumulated sand from the riverbed. Low dam releases associated with drought, however, have changed the pattern of sand accumulation and low reservoir elevations have prevented HFE implementation in the defined window. An alternative strategy for HFE planning and implementation was tested opportunistically in April 2023 following lower-than-normal winter dam releases. We present findings from this HFE indicating that sand enrichment and sandbar building equaled or exceeded that of HFEs conducted under the established management protocol. These findings show that management goals for sediment under conditions of prolonged drought may be achievable but will likely require substantial changes in dam management strategies.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/rra.4374","usgsCitation":"Grams, P.E., Topping, D.J., Salter, G.L., Chapman, K.A., Tusso, R.B., and Mueller, E., 2025, Implementation of controlled floods for sediment management on the Colorado River in Grand Canyon under aridification: River Research and Applications, v. 41, no. 2, p. 334-348, https://doi.org/10.1002/rra.4374.","productDescription":"15 p.","startPage":"334","endPage":"348","ipdsId":"IP-163271","costCenters":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":462680,"rank":2,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":466884,"rank":1,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/rra.4374","text":"Publisher Index Page"}],"country":"United States","state":"Arizona","otherGeospatial":"Colorado River","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -114.6737282778233,\n              35.126856331571815\n            ],\n            [\n              -111.42177515282343,\n              35.126856331571815\n            ],\n            [\n              -111.42177515282343,\n              37.18459338283438\n            ],\n            [\n              -114.6737282778233,\n              37.18459338283438\n            ],\n            [\n              -114.6737282778233,\n              35.126856331571815\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"41","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2024-10-02","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Grams, Paul E. 0000-0002-0873-0708","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0873-0708","contributorId":216115,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Grams","given":"Paul","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":915271,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Topping, David J. 0000-0002-2104-4577","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2104-4577","contributorId":215068,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Topping","given":"David","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":915272,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Salter, Gerard Lewis 0000-0001-6426-0133","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6426-0133","contributorId":333645,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Salter","given":"Gerard","email":"","middleInitial":"Lewis","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":915273,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Chapman, Katherine A. 0009-0009-1806-6474 kchapman@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0009-0009-1806-6474","contributorId":345014,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Chapman","given":"Katherine","email":"kchapman@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":915274,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Tusso, Robert B. 0000-0001-7541-3713 rtusso@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7541-3713","contributorId":4079,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Tusso","given":"Robert","email":"rtusso@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":915275,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Mueller, Erich R. 0000-0001-8202-154X","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8202-154X","contributorId":207750,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Mueller","given":"Erich R.","affiliations":[{"id":37626,"text":"Department of Geography, University of Wyoming, Laramie, WY, USA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":915276,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

Communities in this upper segment resembled one another among sites (lower spatial turnover) but experienced greater temporal shifts in composition associated with hydrological disturbances. Conversely, invertebrate communities in the highly altered downstream segment, which is impaired by reduced flow, sedimentation, and hypoxia, were composed of smaller-bodied and pollution-tolerant taxa with lower<span>&nbsp;</span><i>α</i>-diversity. Unlike the upper segment, communities were patchily distributed among sites (higher spatial turnover), which made it more difficult to detect system-wide temporal variation in composition throughout the study. Our study underscores the benefit of including measures of connectivity and spatial heterogeneity when assessing the ecological integrity of lotic systems. Understanding the system-wide response to disturbances across longer time frames can help better predict and mitigate the impacts of climate change on ecosystem integrity in degraded rivers.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/rra.4385","usgsCitation":"Baumann, K.A., Scholl, E.A., Rantala, H.M., and Whiles, M., 2025, Macroinvertebrate community responses to disturbance in a fragmented river with contrasting legacies of alteration: River Research and Applications, v. 41, no. 3, p. 638-651, https://doi.org/10.1002/rra.4385.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"638","endPage":"651","ipdsId":"IP-159797","costCenters":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":462678,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"41","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Baumann, Karen A.","contributorId":345004,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Baumann","given":"Karen","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":82461,"text":"Dept of Zoology, Center for Ecology, and Cooperative Wildlife Research Laboratory Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, IL; School of Freshwater Sciences, University of Wisconsin Milwaukee, 600 E.

For instance, the climate-driven encroachment of woody mangrove species into grassy marshland areas is predicted to impact coastal ecosystems, with consequences for the ecosystem services these landscapes provide to people. However, there is a dearth of knowledge concerning coastal resident perceptions of the effects of mangrove expansion on wetlands and their ecosystem services, which may impact residents’ behavior around shorelines and landscape-level patterns. We surveyed waterfront residents in the northern Gulf of Mexico (USA) to understand perceptions of the relative performance of marshes and mangroves to deliver fisheries ecosystem services. Residential-scale shoreline condition and preference, recreational fishing activity, geography, and demographics were evaluated as potential predictors of resident perceptions through non-parametric comparisons across groups and ordered logit modeling. Significant predictors included area of residence, marsh shoreline condition, marsh shoreline preference, fishing frequency, and household income. Florida residents (where mangroves are most prevalent) and frequent recreational fishing participants exhibited stronger preference for mangroves. Unexpectedly, residents with marsh currently present on their shoreline also perceived that mangroves were better at delivering fisheries ecosystem services than marshes. Considering the important role that coastal residents play in shoreline management decisions, these results demonstrate how coastal resident attitudes may drive or mediate climate-driven processes in ways that are not evident by examining environmental conditions alone. Understanding social-ecological shifts due to climate change will be important to inform effective landscape management that promotes resilience in coastal ecosystems and societies.</div></div></div></div><div id=\"reading-assistant-main-body-section\"><br></div><ul id=\"issue-navigation\" class=\"issue-navigation u-margin-s-bottom u-bg-grey1\"></ul>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.landurbplan.2024.105203","usgsCitation":"Swinea, S.H., Hughes, A.R., Osland, M., Shepard, C., Thorne, K.B., Alemu I, J., Bardou, R., and Scyphers, S.B., 2025, Marshes to mangroves: Residential surveys reveal perceived wetland trade-offs for ecosystem services: Landscape and Urban Planning, v. 253, 105203, 11 p., https://doi.org/10.1016/j.landurbplan.2024.105203.","productDescription":"105203, 11 p.","ipdsId":"IP-162480","costCenters":[{"id":17705,"text":"Wetland and Aquatic Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":466691,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.landurbplan.2024.105203","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":462658,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -78.58436977313119,\n              32.14300702907593\n            ],\n            [\n              -99.15077602313066,\n              32.14300702907593\n            ],\n            [\n              -99.15077602313066,\n              24.492090610525764\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.58436977313119,\n              24.492090610525764\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.58436977313119,\n              32.14300702907593\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"253","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Swinea, Savannah H.","contributorId":274811,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Swinea","given":"Savannah","email":"","middleInitial":"H.","affiliations":[{"id":56654,"text":"Northeastern University Marine Science Center, 430 Nahant Rd, Nahant, Massachusetts, USA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":915180,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Hughes, A.

Understanding the watershed portfolio of foraging and growth opportunities that sustain productive and resilient fish populations is important for prioritizing conservation and restoration. However, the spatiotemporal distribution and availability of fish food are poorly understood relative to other factors such as abiotic habitat quantity and quality (e.g., water temperature). In this paper, we build on the concept of “foodscapes,” and describe three components of food for fish, including abundance, accessibility, and quality. We then discuss methodological advances to help address three key questions: (1) Why is food availability hard to estimate? (2) What are the consequences of uncertainty in food availability estimates? and (3) What approaches are available or emerging for quantifying food available to fish? To address the first question, we characterize data acquisition and analytical challenges; for the second, we demonstrate the importance of evaluating and communicating potential consequences of uncertainty; and for the third, we posit opportunities for future work. Collectively, we highlight the need for greater appreciation of the role food plays in stream fish conservation, especially given its critical influence on responses to warming temperatures.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews","doi":"10.1002/wat2.1752","usgsCitation":"Ouellet, V., Fullerton, A.H., Kaylor, M.J., Naman, S.M.,

Urban and suburban waterways are directly impacted by plastic pollution due to their proximity to population centers and many different types single use plastic waste sources. In this study, plastic waste accumulation and fragmentation was investigated along the Cooper River in Camden County, NJ. Polymer composition was identified for individual plastic waste particles collected along the Cooper River using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometry. Multiple human-built structures (Wallworth Lake, Evans Pond and Hopkins Pond dams) along the Cooper River were found to accumulate different types of plastic waste. The accumulation of plastic waste along these structures resulted in the initial stages of plastic fragmentation and the identification of large MP particles (1&nbsp;to&nbsp;5&nbsp;mm). Quantitative analysis revealed that fragmented polystyrene (PS) particles constituted 82.8% of the total plastic fragments identified, most of which were identified at the Wallworth Lake dam. Many other types of fragmented plastic litter, including polyethylene and polypropylene, were identified at the Wallworth Lake dam, as well. This research demonstrates that engineered structures within urban and suburban aquatic ecosystems serve as significant aggregators of plastic debris, thereby catalyzing its breakdown into microplastics. Considering the escalating ecological and human health ramifications of microplastic proliferation, the fragmentation of plastic waste in an urban and suburban waterway observed in this study can also result in potentially toxic smaller MP particles, and increased exposure to aquatic organisms and humans.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s13762-024-05962-5","usgsCitation":"Moore, E.K., Pittman, L., Heminghaus, M., Heintzelman, D., and Hatter, A., 2025,

We further caution the metadata updates, particularly when involving small temporal change signals. We focus on the main points in ZW24 and demonstrate that its arguments are problematic in many aspects and do not diminish the credibility of YSR21 or other related works by Yang and Song in support of the IC differential rotation.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Seismological Society of America","doi":"10.1785/0220240004","usgsCitation":"Yang, Y., Song, X., and Ringler, A.T., 2025, Reply to “comment on ‘an evaluation of the timing accuracy of global and regional seismic stations and networks’ by Yang et al.

We developed a framework for monitoring and assessment of endangered light-footed Ridgway’s rails (<i>Rallus obsoletus levipes</i>) across their U.S. range, relative to multi-scale recovery goals. We created spatially explicit sample units and a sampling frame covering all potential habitat to facilitate range-wide probability sampling, and also built a model of the call-broadcast process commonly used to survey marsh birds that included heterogeneity in availability for detection and conditional detectability for each bird during each survey. We used the model to simulate 96 sampling strategies that included different levels of replication, multiple approaches for sample allocation amongst strata, and both simple random and weighted probability sampling (i.e., weights proportional to local rail abundance) of sample units within strata. Effective monitoring surveyed ≥20–30% of the sampling frame on ≥3 occasions, with weighted sample selection and more targeted sampling (50% of units) for strata that are key to species recovery. We also tested Bayesian N-mixture models for estimating abundance and show that multiple models provide reasonable estimates. This work lays the foundation for statistical sampling and multi-scale population estimation for an endangered bird, and for refinement of abundance estimation models. Moreover, this work provides a replicable process for building customized and statistically defensible sampling frameworks to assess recovery of endangered species that can used for other sensitive species.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer Nature","doi":"10.1007/s10531-024-02919-5","usgsCitation":"Stevens, B.S., Conway, C.J., Sawyer, K.A., Kershek, L., Block, G., Hamilton, S.E., and Kolstrom, R., 2025, Developing a range-wide sampling framework for endangered species: A case study with light-footed Ridgway’s rail: Biodiversity and Conservation, v. 33, p. 3703-3726, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10531-024-02919-5.","productDescription":"24 p.","startPage":"3703","endPage":"3726","ipdsId":"IP-158842","costCenters":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":487934,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10531-024-02919-5","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":485343,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","otherGeospatial":"southern California","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -119.11985966366927,\n              34.43986019915313\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.11985966366927,\n              32.5790213915529\n            ],\n            [\n              -117.03786824500196,\n              32.5790213915529\n            ],\n            [\n              -117.03786824500196,\n              34.43986019915313\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.11985966366927,\n              34.43986019915313\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"33","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2024-08-29","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Stevens, Bryan S.","contributorId":171809,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Stevens","given":"Bryan","email":"","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":935078,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Conway, Courtney J. 0000-0003-0492-2953 cconway@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0492-2953","contributorId":2951,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Conway","given":"Courtney","email":"cconway@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":935079,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Sawyer, Kimberley A.","contributorId":167850,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Sawyer","given":"Kimberley","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":935080,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Kershek, Lauren","contributorId":354083,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kershek","given":"Lauren","affiliations":[{"id":6661,"text":"US Fish and Wildlife Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":935081,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Block, Giselle","contributorId":139324,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Block","given":"Giselle","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":6927,"text":"USFWS, National Wildlife Refuge System","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":935641,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Hamilton, Sandra E.","contributorId":62318,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hamilton","given":"Sandra","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":935642,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Kolstrom, Rebecca","contributorId":275658,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kolstrom","given":"Rebecca","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":935643,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}

In the context of wildlife, emerging infectious diseases have repeatedly caused widespread host morbidity and population declines of numerous taxa. In areas yet unaffected by a pathogen, a proactive management approach has the potential to minimize or prevent host mortality. However, typically critical information on disease dynamics in a novel host system is lacking, empirical evidence on efficacy of management interventions is limited, and there is a lack of validated predictive models. As such, quantitative support for identifying effective management interventions is largely absent, and the opportunity for proactive management is often missed. We considered the potential invasion of the chytrid fungus,&nbsp;</span><i>Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans</i><span>&nbsp;(Bsal), whose expected emergence in North America poses a severe threat to hundreds of salamander species in this global salamander biodiversity hotspot. We developed and parameterized a dynamic multistate occupancy model to forecast host and pathogen occurrence, following expected emergence of the pathogen, and evaluated the response of salamander populations to different management scenarios.&nbsp;Our model forecasted that taking no action is expected to be catastrophic to salamander populations. Proactive action was predicted to maximize host occupancy outcomes relative to wait-and-see reactive management, thus providing quantitative support for proactive management opportunities. The eradication of Bsal was unlikely under all the evaluated management options. Contrary to our expectations, even early pathogen detection had little effect on Bsal or host occupancy outcomes. Our results provide quantitative support that proactive management is the optimal strategy for promoting persistence of disease-threatened salamander populations. Our approach fills a critical gap by defining a framework for evaluating management options prior to pathogen invasion and can thus serve as a template for addressing novel disease threats that jeopardize wildlife and human health.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Society for Conservation Biology","doi":"10.1111/cobi.14363","usgsCitation":"Bletz, M., Campbell Grant, E.H., and DiRenzo, G.V., 2025, Quantitative support for the benefits of proactive management for wildlife disease control: Conservation Biology, v. 39, no. 1, e14363, 15 p., https://doi.org/10.1111/cobi.14363.","productDescription":"e14363, 15 p.","ipdsId":"IP-152843","costCenters":[{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":439191,"rank":1,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1111/cobi.14363","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":434764,"rank":2,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"39","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2024-08-26","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Bletz, Molly","contributorId":344177,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Bletz","given":"Molly","affiliations":[{"id":37062,"text":"UMASS","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":913080,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Campbell Grant, Evan H. 0000-0003-4401-6496 ehgrant@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4401-6496","contributorId":150443,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Campbell Grant","given":"Evan","email":"ehgrant@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"H.","affiliations":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":913081,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"DiRenzo, Graziella Vittoria 0000-0001-5264-4762","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5264-4762","contributorId":243404,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"DiRenzo","given":"Graziella","email":"","middleInitial":"Vittoria","affiliations":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":913082,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Conventional flow measurement instruments such as acoustic Doppler velocimeters (ADVs) do not perform well during low-flow conditions in small streams, truncating the development of rating curves during critical baseflow conditions dominated by groundwater inflow. We revisited an instantaneous solute tracer injection method as an alternative to ADVs based on paired measurements to compare their precision, efficiency, and feasibility within headwater streams across a range of flow conditions. We show that the precision of discharge measurements using salt dilution by slug injection and ADV methods were comparable overall, but salt dilution was more precise during the lowest flows and required less time to implement. Often, headwater streams were at or below the depth threshold where ADV measurements could even be attempted and transects were complicated by coarse bed material and cobbles. We discuss the methodological benefits and limitations of salt dilution by slug injection and conclude that the method could facilitate a proliferation of streamflow observation across headwater stream networks that are highly undersampled compared to larger streams.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"National Groundwater Association","doi":"10.1111/gwat.13437","usgsCitation":"Rogers, K.M., Fair, J.H., Hitt, N.P., Kessler, K.G., Kelly, Z.A., and Briggs, M., 2025, Utility of an instantaneous salt dilution method for measuring streamflow in headwater streams: Groundwater, v. 63, no. 1, p. 80-92, https://doi.org/10.1111/gwat.13437.","productDescription":"13 p.","startPage":"80","endPage":"92","ipdsId":"IP-154604","costCenters":[{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":498027,"rank":2,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1111/gwat.13437","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":432856,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Virginia","otherGeospatial":"Shenandoah National Park","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -78.79191984899838,\n              38.003747532365935\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.43265603792327,\n              38.30672144762764\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.1306661677441,\n              38.74663683672705\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.18273338674035,\n              38.94129061181346\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.36496865322779,\n              38.79129202372505\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.62009802630988,\n              38.49849659640472\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.82836690229541,\n              38.26176445428902\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.8752273993925,\n              38.06936203399192\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.79191984899838,\n              38.003747532365935\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"63","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Rogers, Karli M. 0000-0002-6188-7405","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6188-7405","contributorId":237955,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rogers","given":"Karli","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":365,"text":"Leetown Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":910411,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Fair, Jennifer H. 0000-0002-9902-1893","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9902-1893","contributorId":245941,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Fair","given":"Jennifer","middleInitial":"H.","affiliations":[{"id":466,"text":"New England Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":910412,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Hitt, Nathaniel P. 0000-0002-1046-4568","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1046-4568","contributorId":238185,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hitt","given":"Nathaniel","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":365,"text":"Leetown Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":910413,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Kessler, Karmann G. 0000-0001-5681-4909","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5681-4909","contributorId":242765,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kessler","given":"Karmann","email":"","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[{"id":365,"text":"Leetown Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":910414,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Kelly, Zachary A. 0000-0003-4684-2345","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4684-2345","contributorId":222459,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kelly","given":"Zachary","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":365,"text":"Leetown Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":910415,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Briggs, Martin A. 0000-0003-3206-4132","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3206-4132","contributorId":222759,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Briggs","given":"Martin A.","affiliations":[{"id":37277,"text":"WMA - Earth System Processes Division","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":910416,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

Phenotypic plasticity can buffer against the challenges presented by novel environments, while adaptation to local ecosystems may limit resilience in novel ecosystems. Outbreeding depression during the mixing of disparate gene pools can also reduce reproductive success after long-distance movement. Here, we use a ‘common-garden’ population of gopher tortoises (</span><i>Gopherus polyphemus</i><span>), translocated from numerous sites across the state of Florida, USA, to a mitigation site in the north-west (panhandle) region to assess whether geographic origin, outbreeding effects, and behavioral plasticity influence reproductive success in this threatened keystone species. We found that females from north-east Florida produced clutches with lower hatching success than females from other regions. We detected regional differentiation in nest site selection behavior in the common environment of the translocation site, though these differences did not mediate the regional effect on hatching success. We also found evidence for outbreeding depression: hatching success declined with increasing parental geographic and genetic distances, dropping from 93% to 67% across the range of observed parental genetic distances. Together, these results suggest that newly admixed populations may suffer reproductive costs due to historical population differentiation, and that undetected outbreeding depression could significantly hamper conservation efforts for this species and others undergoing a variety of human-mediated movements.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/acv.12977","usgsCitation":"Loope, K., DeSha, J.N., Aresco, M.J., Shoemaker, K., and Hunter, E.A., 2025, Common-garden
