The inundation maps, which can be accessed through the USGS Flood Inundation Mapping Science Web site at <a href=\"http://water.usgs.gov/osw/flood_inundation\">http://water.usgs.gov/osw/flood_inundation/</a>, depict estimates of the areal extent and depth of flooding corresponding to selected water levels (stages) at the USGS streamgage at Big Creek near Alpharetta, Georgia (02335700). Real-time stage information from this USGS streamgage may be obtained at <a href=\"http://waterdata.usgs.gov/\">http://waterdata.usgs.gov/</a> and can be used in conjunction with these maps to estimate near real-time areas of inundation. The National Weather Service (NWS) is incorporating results from this study into the Advanced Hydrologic Prediction Service (AHPS) flood-warning system <a href=\"http://water.weather.gov/ahps/\">http://water.weather.gov/ahps/</a>). The NWS forecasts flood hydrographs for many streams where the USGS operates streamgages and provides flow data.

Concentrations were relatively high among sites compared with other large rivers (mean wet wt for 6 fishes was 0.17&ndash;1.59&thinsp;&mu;g&thinsp;g</span><sup>&ndash;1</sup><span>&nbsp;Hg and 1.35&ndash;2.65&thinsp;&mu;g&thinsp;g</span><sup>&ndash;1</sup><span>&nbsp;Se), but consistent longitudinal patterns in Hg or Se concentrations relative to the dam were lacking. Mercury increased (slope&thinsp;=&thinsp;0.147) with &delta;</span><sup>15</sup><span>N, a metric of trophic position, indicating biomagnification similar to that observed in other freshwater systems. Organisms regularly exceeded exposure risk thresholds for wildlife and humans (6&ndash;100% and 56&ndash;100% of samples for Hg and Se, respectfully, among risk thresholds). In the Colorado River, Grand Canyon, Hg and Se concentrations pose exposure risks for fish, wildlife, and humans, and the findings of the present study add to a growing body of evidence showing that remote ecosystems are vulnerable to long-range transport and subsequent bioaccumulation of contaminants. Management of exposure risks in Grand Canyon will remain a challenge, as sources and transport mechanisms of Hg and Se extend far beyond park boundaries.&nbsp;</span><i>Environ Toxicol Chem</i><span>2015;9999:1&ndash;10</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry","doi":"10.1002/etc.3077","usgsCitation":"Walters, D.M., E.J.

Beginning in 2013, we initiated a new research project to determine the current status of fishers on Washington’s Olympic Peninsula 3–5 years after the releases and evaluate the short-term success of the restoration program. Objectives of the study are to determine the current distribution of fishers and proportion of the recovery area that is currently occupied by fishers, determine several genetic characteristics of the reintroduced population, and determine reproductive success of the founding animals through genetic studies. </p><p>During 2014, we continued working with a broad coalition of cooperating agencies, tribes, and nongovernmental organizations (NGO) to collect data on fisher distribution and genetics using noninvasive sampling methods. The primary sampling frame consisted of 157 24-square-kilometer hexagons (hexes) distributed across all major land ownerships within the Olympic Peninsula target survey area. In 2014 we expanded the study by adding 58 more hexes to an expanded study area in response to incidental fisher observations outside of the target area obtained in 2013; 49 hexes were added south and 9 to the east of the target area. During 2014, federal, state, tribal and NGO biologists and volunteers established three baited motion-sensing camera stations, paired with hair snaring devices, in 80 hexes; 69 in the targeted area 11 in the expansion areas. Each paired camera/hair station was left in place for approximately 6 weeks, with three checks on 2-week intervals. We documented fisher presence in 5 of the 80 hexagons, and identified 5 different fishers through a combination of microsatellite DNA analyses and camera detections. All fisher detections were in the target area. These 5 individuals included 2 of the original founding population of 90, 1 of the 2 rescued and rehabilitated kits that were released in 2010, and 1 new recruit to the population (1 individual was not identified). Additionally, we identified more than 40 other species of wildlife at the baited camera stations. We also obtained eight incidental fisher observations through photographs and carcass retrieval. </p><p>During 2015, we plan to sample 75 hexagons in the target area and 12 in the expansion area. We plan to sample all unsampled accessible hexes in the target area (26 hexes), and re-sample accessible hexes sampled in 2013 (49 hexes).</p>","language":"English","publisher":"National Park

In a nationwide study, at least one neonicotinoid was detected in 53&nbsp;% of the samples collected, with imidacloprid detected most frequently (37&nbsp;%), followed by clothianidin (24&nbsp;%), thiamethoxam (21&nbsp;%), dinotefuran (13&nbsp;%), acetamiprid (3&nbsp;%) and thiacloprid (0&nbsp;%). Clothianidin and thiamethoxam concentrations were positively related to the percentage of the land use in cultivated crop production and imidacloprid concentrations were positively related to the percentage of urban area within the basin. Additional sampling was also conducted in targeted research areas to complement these national-scale results, including determining: (1) neonicotinoid concentrations during elevated flow conditions in an intensely agricultural region; (2) temporal patterns of neonicotinoids in heavily urbanised basins; (3) neonicotinoid concentrations in agricultural basins in a nationally important ecosystem; and (4) in-stream transport of neonicotinoids near a wastewater treatment plant. Across all study areas, at least one neonicotinoid was detected in 63&nbsp;% of the 48 streams sampled.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"CSIRO

The Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan calls for monitoring and assessment of key ecosystem attributes, one of which is abundance of American alligators. We examined 10&nbsp;years of alligator night spotlight counts from Arthur R. Marshall Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge along two canals and in the interior marsh to determine trends and how dry years affect alligator abundance. Alligators showed population response to hydrologic conditions. In particular, there were declines in abundance after dry years followed by an apparent recovery in abundance in subsequent years. Increases in abundance were lower in the marsh than L-40 Canal. In addition, there was evidence that intensity of dry events affected population dynamics with greater declines observed in years with drier conditions. Results revealed that overall population of alligators increased from 2004 to 2013, but that increases varied by survey route. These results demonstrate that dry years cause a decline in alligator abundance proportional to the intensity of the dry event, and that it is important to make a distinction between canals and marsh when measuring alligator response to hydrology.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s13157-015-0677-8","usgsCitation":"Waddle, J., Brandt, L.A., Jeffery, B.M., and Mazzotti, F.J., 2015, Dry years decrease abundance of American alligators in the Florida Everglades: Wetlands, v. 35, no. 5, p. 865-875, https://doi.org/10.1007/s13157-015-0677-8.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"865","endPage":"875","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-051916","costCenters":[{"id":17705,"text":"Wetland and Aquatic Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":306938,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Florida","otherGeospatial":"Arthur R. .Marshall Loxhatchee National Wildlife Refuge","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -80.46936035156249,\n              26.347575438494673\n            ],\n            [\n              -80.46936035156249,\n              26.701452590314368\n            ],\n            [\n              -80.16998291015625,\n              26.701452590314368\n            ],\n            [\n              -80.16998291015625,\n              26.347575438494673\n            ],\n            [\n              -80.46936035156249,\n              26.347575438494673\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"35","issue":"5","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":5,"text":"Lafayette PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2015-07-24","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"55d59a9ee4b0518e3546a488","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Waddle, J.

This is a difficult task, because of the time it takes to construct a tsunami model using real time data from the source. It is possible to construct a database of potential seismic sources and their corresponding tsunami a priori.However, such models are generally based on uniform slip distributions and thus oversimplify the knowledge of the earthquake source. Here, we show how to predict tsunami run-up from any seismic source model using an analytic solution, that was specifically designed for subduction zones with a well defined geometry, i.e., Chile, Japan, Nicaragua, Alaska. The main idea of this work is to provide a tool for emergency response, trading off accuracy for speed. The solutions we present for large earthquakes appear promising. Here, run-up models are computed for: The 1992 Mw 7.7 Nicaragua Earthquake, the 2001 Mw 8.4 Per&uacute; Earthquake, the 2003Mw 8.3 Hokkaido Earthquake, the 2007 Mw 8.1 Per&uacute; Earthquake, the 2010 Mw 8.8 Maule Earthquake, the 2011 Mw 9.0 Tohoku Earthquake and the recent 2014 Mw 8.2 Iquique Earthquake. The maximum run-up estimations are consistent with measurements made inland after each event, with a peak of 9&thinsp;m for Nicaragua, 8&thinsp;m for Per&uacute; (2001), 32&thinsp;m for Maule, 41&thinsp;m for Tohoku, and 4.1&thinsp;m for Iquique. Considering recent advances made in the analysis of real time GPS data and the ability to rapidly resolve the finiteness of a large earthquake close to existing GPS networks, it will be possible in the near future to perform these calculations within the first minutes after the occurrence of similar events. Thus, such calculations will provide faster run-up information than is available from existing uniform-slip seismic source databases or past events of pre-modeled seismic sources.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/2015JB012218","usgsCitation":"Riqueime, S., Fuentes, M., Hayes, G.P., and Campos, J., 2015, A rapid estimation of near field tsunami run-up: Journal of Geophysical Research, v. 120, no. 9, p. 6487-6500, https://doi.org/10.1002/2015JB012218.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"6487","endPage":"6500","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-068627","costCenters":[{"id":300,"text":"Geologic Hazards Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":471867,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/2015jb012218","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":308323,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"120","issue":"9","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":2,"text":"Denver PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2015-09-26","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"56012a39e4b03bc34f5443ee","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Riqueime, Sebastian","contributorId":147554,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Riqueime","given":"Sebastian","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":16869,"text":"National Seismological Center (CSN), University of Chile, Santiago, Chile","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":571999,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Fuentes, Mauricio","contributorId":147555,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Fuentes","given":"Mauricio","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":16870,"text":"Department of Geophysics, University of Chile, Santiago, Chile","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":572000,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Hayes, Gavin P. 0000-0003-3323-0112 ghayes@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3323-0112","contributorId":147556,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hayes","given":"Gavin","email":"ghayes@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":300,"text":"Geologic Hazards Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":572001,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Campos, Jamie","contributorId":147557,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Campos","given":"Jamie","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":16870,"text":"Department of Geophysics, University of Chile, Santiago, Chile","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":572002,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

In recent years, the NEIC has assumed a more prominent role in local and regional seismic monitoring, backup capabilities, and special studies. The NEIC uses numerous scientific algorithms to produce information products for local, national, and international disaster responders; infrastructure corporations (for example, utility providers and insurers); U.S. embassies worldwide; news agencies; national and international earth science research communities; and millions of public users.</p>\n<p>To support this mission, the NEIC operates a constant service to derive numerous information products as rapidly and accurately as possible. Derived information products and data sets provide a wealth of related earthquake information and include products such as location, magnitude, maps of shaking intensity, moment tensors, phase arrivals, and loss and damage reports. These information products are automatically derived in near real-time and refined over time. Earthquake information products vary from well formatted text files, to binary files, to directories full of many files. A team of analysts, who provide constant coverage, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, review the acquired data and automatically derived products (1) in near real-time for rapid release and (2) in the weeks following events to produce historical catalogs of global earthquakes in support of scientific research. Data and products are reviewed both in near real-time for rapid release and in the weeks following events to produce historical catalogs of global earthquakes in support of scientific research. At the present time, the NEIC publishes data for approximately 25,000 earthquakes annually.</p>\n<p>The NEIC software system that supports this service and mission comprises many subsystems. The internals of each subsystem are often complex, but the integration between all of the subsystems is well defined, standardized, and straightforward. This Open-File Report describes the systems&rsquo; integration infrastructure and how all the subsystems fit together. It provides summary views of the system as a whole, along with detailed views of the inputs, outputs, and dependencies for each subsystem. It also outlines the many shared data services that support these subsystems and applications as well as external customers. The NEIC systems-integration effort is ongoing. Additional integration steps, needed to reach our goals, are discussed.</p>\n<p>It is important to note that this document provides a brief introduction to the work of dozens of software developers and IT specialists, spanning in many cases more than a decade. References to significant amounts of supporting documentation, code, and information are supplied within.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston,

A total of 17 seabird species were observed at least once in each study plot.

Diving species showed large differences between the 2 study plots in their predicted winter distributions, which were largely explained by water depth acting as a stronger predictor of occupancy in Rhode Island than in Nantucket Sound.

Cyclic LP &ldquo;drumbeating&rdquo; was the characteristic seismicity accompanying the sustained dome-building phase of the 2004&ndash;2008 eruption of Mount St. Helens (MSH), WA. However, together with the LP drumbeating was a near-continuous, randomly occurring series of tiny LP seismic events (LP &ldquo;subevents&rdquo;), which may hold important additional information on the mechanism of seismogenesis at restless volcanoes. We employ template matching, phase-weighted stacking, and full-waveform inversion to image the source mechanism of one multiplet of these LP subevents at MSH in July 2005. The signal-to-noise ratios of the individual events are too low to produce reliable waveform-inversion results, but the events are repetitive and can be stacked. We apply network-based template matching to 8&thinsp;days of continuous velocity waveform data from 29 June to 7 July 2005 using a master event to detect 822 network triggers. We stack waveforms for 359 high-quality triggers at each station and component, using a combination of linear and phase-weighted stacking to produce clean stacks for use in waveform inversion. The derived source mechanism pointsto the volumetric oscillation (~10&thinsp;m</span><sup>3</sup><span>) of a subhorizontal crack located at shallow depth (~30&thinsp;m) in an area to the south of Crater Glacier in the southern portion of the breached MSH crater. A possible excitation mechanism is the sudden condensation of metastable steam from a shallow pressurized hydrothermal system as it encounters cool meteoric water in the outer parts of the edifice, perhaps supplied from snow melt.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/2015JB012279","usgsCitation":"Matoza, R.S., Chouet, B.A., Dawson, P.B., Shearer, P., Haney, M.M., Waite, G.P., Moran, S.C., and Mikesell, T.D., 2015, Source mechanism of small long-period events at Mount St. Helens in July 2005 using template matching, phase-weighted stacking, and full-waveform inversion: Journal of Geophysical Research, v. 120, no. 9, p. 6351-6364, https://doi.org/10.1002/2015JB012279.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"6351","endPage":"6364","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-066288","costCenters":[{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":471869,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7dv8w3bq","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":306870,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Washington","otherGeospatial":"Mount St. Helens","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -122.2723388671875,\n              46.14939437647686\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.2723388671875,\n              46.283376780187254\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.09793090820311,\n              46.283376780187254\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.09793090820311,\n              46.14939437647686\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.2723388671875,\n              46.14939437647686\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"120","issue":"9","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":14,"text":"Menlo Park PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2015-09-18","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"55d44923e4b0518e3546947c","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Matoza, Robin S.","contributorId":54873,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Matoza","given":"Robin","email":"","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":568434,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Chouet, Bernard A. 0000-0001-5527-0532 chouet@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5527-0532","contributorId":3304,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Chouet","given":"Bernard","email":"chouet@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":568433,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Dawson, Phillip B. dawson@usgs.gov","contributorId":2751,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Dawson","given":"Phillip","email":"dawson@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":568435,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Shearer, Peter M.","contributorId":78946,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Shearer","given":"Peter M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":568436,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Haney, Matthew M. mhaney@usgs.gov","contributorId":2943,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Haney","given":"Matthew","email":"mhaney@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":568437,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Waite, Gregory P.","contributorId":146613,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Waite","given":"Gregory","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":16203,"text":"Michigan Technological university","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":568438,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Moran, Seth C. 0000-0001-7308-9649 smoran@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7308-9649","contributorId":548,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Moran","given":"Seth","email":"smoran@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":615,"text":"Volcano Hazards Program","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":568439,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Mikesell, T.

Disparate data sets from previous bank erosion, fisheries, and large wood studies were used to compare the distribution of largemouth bass with logjam frequency. Logjams are related to the frequency of bank mass wasting increasing from near an upstream dam to the middle reach of the study segment and then decreasing as the river approaches sea level. The highest concentration of largemouth bass and logjams was in the middle reach (110 fish per hour and 21 jams per km). Another measure of largemouth bass distribution, fish biomass density (g h1 ), had a similar trend with logjams and was a better predictor of fish distribution versus logjams (R2= 0.6 and 0.8 and p = 0.08 and 0.02 for fish per hour and g h1 versus logjam, respectively). We theorize that the preference for adult bass to congregate near logjams indicates the use of the jams as feeding areas. The results of a principal component analysis indicate that fish biomass concentration is much more related to logjam frequency than channel geometry (width, depth, and bank height), bed grain size, bank erosion, or turbidity. The results of this research support recent studies on in-channel wood and fisheries: Logjams appear to be important for maintaining, or increasing, both largemouth bass numbers and total biomass of fish in large eastern North American rivers. Persistent logjams, important as habitat, exist where relatively undisturbed river reaches allow for bank erosion inputs of wood and available anchoring locations. Published 2014.

We estimated consumption of Bythotrephes by planktivorous and benthivorous fishes, using bioenergetics and daily ration models at nearshore (18 m), intermediate (46 m), and offshore (110 m) depths along one western Lake Superior transect (April, and September-November) and two northern Lake Michigan transects (April, July, September). In Lake Superior, consumption (primarily by cisco Coregonus artedi) exceeded Bythotrephes production at all offshore sites in September-November (up to 396% of production consumed) and at the intermediate site in November (842%) with no evidence of consumption nearshore. By comparing Bythotrephes biomass following months of excessive consumption, we conservatively concluded that top-down control was evident only at the offshore site during September-October. In Lake Michigan, consumption by fishes (primarily alewife Alosa pseudoharengus) exceeded production at nearshore sites (up to 178%), but not in deeper sites (&lt; 15%). Evidence for top-down control in the nearshore was not supported, however, as Bythotrephes never subsequently declined. Using generalized additive models, temperature, and not fish consumption, not zooplankton prey density, best explained variability in Bythotrephes biomass. The non-linear pattern revealed Bythotrephes to increase with temperature up to 16 &deg;C, and then decline between 16 and 23 &deg;C. We discuss how temperature likely has direct negative impacts on Bythotrephes when temperatures near 23 &deg;C, but speculate that predation also contributes to declining biomass when temperatures exceed 16 &deg;C.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.jglr.2015.07.010","usgsCitation":"Keeler, K.M., Bunnell, D., Diana, J., Adams, J.V., Mychek-Londer, J., Warner,

We construct a 3-D dynamic rupture model of an earthquake on the Pitas Point and Lower Red Mountain faults to model low-frequency ground motion and the resulting tsunami, with a goal of elucidating the seismic and tsunami hazard in this area. Our model results in an average stress drop of 6&thinsp;MPa, an average fault slip of 7.4&thinsp;m, and a moment magnitude of 7.7, consistent with regional paleoseismic data. Our corresponding tsunami model uses final seafloor displacement from the rupture model as initial conditions to compute local propagation and inundation, resulting in large peak tsunami amplitudes northward and eastward due to site and path effects. Modeled inundation in the Ventura area is significantly greater than that indicated by state of California's current reference inundation line.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/2015GL064507","usgsCitation":"Kenny J.

Recent changes in federal fire policy implementation guidance and fire science information suggest the need for substantial changes in federal fire management plans of the United States. Federal land management agencies are also undergoing land management planning efforts that will initiate revision of fire management plans across the country. Using the southern Sierra Nevada as a case study, we briefly describe the underlying framework of fire management plans, assess their consistency with guiding principles based on current science information and federal policy guidance, and provide recommendations for the development of future fire management plans. Based on our review, we recommend that future fire management plans be: (1) consistent and compatible, (2) collaborative, (3) clear and comprehensive, (4) spatially and temporally scalable, (5) informed by the best available science, and (6) flexible and adaptive. In addition, we identify and describe several strategic guides or &ldquo;tools&rdquo; that can enhance these core principles and benefit future fire management plans in the following areas: planning and prioritization, science integration, climate change adaptation, partnerships, monitoring, education and communication, and applied fire management. These principles and tools are essential to successfully realize fire management goals and objectives in a rapidly changing world.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Association for Fire Ecology","doi":"10.4996/fireecology.1102059","usgsCitation":"Meyer, M.D., Roberts, S.L., Wills, R., Brooks, M.L., and Winford, E.M., 2015, Principles of effective USA federal fire management plans: Fire Ecology, v. 11, no. 2, p. 59-83, https://doi.org/10.4996/fireecology.1102059.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"59","endPage":"83","numberOfPages":"14","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-062999","costCenters":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":471871,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.4996/fireecology.1102059","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":306811,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","otherGeospatial":"Southern Sierra Nevada mountain","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -118.828125,\n              34.94899072578227\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.36669921875,\n              35.04798673426734\n            ],\n            [\n              -117.784423828125,\n              35.40696093270201\n            ],\n            [\n              -117.80639648437499,\n              35.94243575255426\n            ],\n            [\n              -117.90527343750001,\n              36.677230602346214\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.41064453125,\n              37.405073750176925\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.10278320312499,\n              38.28131307922966\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.718017578125,\n              39.0533181067413\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.44311523437499,\n              39.9602803542957\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.28906250000001,\n              40.66397287638688\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.97021484374999,\n              40.82212357516945\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.95922851562501,\n              40.287906612507406\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.5087890625,\n              38.85682013474361\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.62988281249999,\n              37.76202988573211\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.63012695312499,\n              36.96744946416934\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.85009765625,\n              35.90684930677121\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.828125,\n              34.94899072578227\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"11","issue":"2","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":1,"text":"Sacramento PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2015-08-01","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"55d2f7a3e4b0518e35468cbf","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Meyer, Marc D.","contributorId":146492,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Meyer","given":"Marc","email":"","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[{"id":16711,"text":"USDA Forest Service, Clovis, CA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":568036,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Roberts, Susan L.","contributorId":85312,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Roberts","given":"Susan","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":568037,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Wills, Robin","contributorId":146493,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Wills","given":"Robin","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":16712,"text":"National Parks Service, San Francisco, CA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":568038,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Brooks, Matthew L. 0000-0002-3518-6787 mlbrooks@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3518-6787","contributorId":393,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Brooks","given":"Matthew","email":"mlbrooks@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":568035,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Winford, Eric M.","contributorId":146494,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Winford","given":"Eric","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":16713,"text":"NPS, Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, Three Rivers, CA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":568039,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

For fish stocked in Lake Lone Chimney, stocking contribution was lower (3&ndash;35%), and average length and weight of stocked fish by age-2 reached 230&nbsp;mm TL and 85&nbsp;g, whereas the stocking contribution (84&ndash;98%) and growth in length (340&nbsp;mm TL) and weight (280&nbsp;g) were higher by age-2 in Lake Greenleaf. Given these unambiguous differences of post-stocking performance, benchmark metrics that represent population-level information such as relative abundance and average length and weight of the sample masked these significant differences, highlighting the importance of marking hatchery-fish and then following them through time to determine the effectiveness of stocking. These results suggest that stock enhancement programmes would benefit from studies that quantify post-stocking performance of hatchery fish.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/jai.12797","usgsCitation":"Stewart, D., and Long, J.M., 2015, Growth and contribution of stocked channel catfish, <i>Ictalurus

The model was developed to help policy makers, natural resource managers, and the public better understand and manage the water resources in the region. The Groundwater and Surface-water FLOW model (GSFLOW), which is an integration of the Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System (PRMS) and the Modular Groundwater Flow Model (MODFLOW-NWT), was used to simulate surface water and groundwater in the Spring Creek Basin for water years 2000&ndash;06. Because the groundwater and surface-water divides for the Spring Creek Basin do not coincide, the study area includes the Nittany Creek Basin and headwaters of the Spruce Creek Basin. The hydrologic model was developed by the use of a stepwise process: (1) develop and calibrate a PRMS model and steady-state MODFLOW-NWT model; (2) re-calibrate the steady-state MODFLOW-NWT model using potential recharge estimates simulated from the PRMS model, and (3) integrate the PRMS and MODFLOW-NWT models into GSFLOW. The individually calibrated PRMS and MODFLOW-NWT models were used as a starting point for the calibration of the fully coupled GSFLOW model. The GSFLOW model calibration was done by comparing observations and corresponding simulated values of streamflow from 11 streamgages and groundwater levels from 16 wells. The cumulative water budget and individual water budgets for water years 2000&ndash;06 were simulated by using GSFLOW. The largest source and sink terms are represented by precipitation and evapotranspiration, respectively. For the period simulated, a net surplus in the water budget was computed where inflows exceeded outflows by about 1.7 billion cubic feet (0.47 inches per year over the basin area); storage increased by about the same amount to balance the budget. The rate and distribution of recharge throughout the Spring Creek, Nittany Creek, and Spruce Creek Basins is variable as a result of the high degree of hydrogeologic heterogeneity and karst features. The greatest amount of recharge was simulated in the carbonate-bedrock valley, near the toe slopes of Nittany and Tussey Mountains, in the Scotia Barrens, and along the area coinciding with the Gatesburg Formation. Runoff extremes were observed for water years 2001 (dry year) and 2004 (wet year). Simulated average recharge rates (water reaching the saturated zone as defined in GSFLOW) for 2001 and 2004 were 5.4 in/yr and 22.0 in/yr, respectively. Areas where simulations show large variations in annual recharge between wet and dry years are the same areas where simulated recharge was large. Those areas where rates of groundwater recharge are much higher than average, and are capable of accepting substantially greater quantities of recharge during wet years, might be considered critical for maintaining the flow of springs, stream base flow, or the source of water to supply wells. The slopes of the Bald Eagle, Tussey, and Nittany Mountains are relatively insensitive to variations in recharge, primarily because of reduced infiltration rates and steep slopes.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sir20155073","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the Clearwater Conservancy and Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection","usgsCitation":"Fulton, J.W., Risser, D.W., Regan, R.S., Walker, J.F., Hunt, R.J., Niswonger, R.G., Hoffman, S.A., and Markstrom, S.L., 2015, Water-budgets and recharge-area simulations for the Spring Creek and Nittany Creek Basins and parts of the Spruce Creek Basin, Centre and Huntingdon Counties, Pennsylvania, Water Years 2000–06: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2015–5073, 86 p, https://dx.doi.org/10.3133/sir20155073.","productDescription":"x, 86 p.","numberOfPages":"100","onlineOnly":"Y","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-006529","costCenters":[{"id":532,"text":"Pennsylvania Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":306786,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2015/5073/coverthb.jpg"},{"id":306791,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2015/5073/sir20155073.pdf","text":"Report","size":"27.3 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"SIR 2015-5-83"}],"country":"United States","state":"Pennsylvania","county":"Centre County, Huntingdon County","otherGeospatial":"Nittany Creek Basin, Spring Creek Basin, Spruce Creek Basin","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -77.7179718017578,\n              40.979898069620155\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.55661010742188,\n              40.86004454780482\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.76466369628905,\n              40.7743018636372\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.87384033203124,\n              40.74205475883487\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.93975830078125,\n              40.706148461723764\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.05648803710938,\n              40.66188943992171\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.11897277832031,\n              40.62385529380968\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.16154479980469,\n              40.59283882963389\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.277587890625,\n              40.643135583312805\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.16497802734375,\n              40.730608477796636\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.01666259765625,\n              40.82212357516945\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.82440185546875,\n              40.9280401053324\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.7179718017578,\n              40.979898069620155\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","contact":"<p>Director, Pennsylvania Water Science Center<br /> U.S. Geological Survey<br /> 215 Limekiln Road<br /> New Cumberland, PA 17070<br /> <a href=\"http://pa.water.usgs.gov/\">http://pa.water.usgs.gov/</a></p>","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":10,"text":"Baltimore PSC"},"publishedDate":"2015-08-17","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2015-08-17","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"57f7eec4e4b0bc0bec09eca9","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Fulton, John W. 0000-0002-5335-0720 jwfulton@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5335-0720","contributorId":2298,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Fulton","given":"John","email":"jwfulton@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":532,"text":"Pennsylvania Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":568223,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Risser, Dennis W. 0000-0001-9597-5406 dwrisser@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9597-5406","contributorId":898,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Risser","given":"Dennis","email":"dwrisser@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":532,"text":"Pennsylvania Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":568221,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Regan, R.

We examine spatiotemporal variability in riparian vegetation for the Colorado River in Grand Canyon relative to river regulation and climate, over the five decades since completion of the upstream Glen Canyon Dam in 1963. Long-term changes along this highly modified, large segment of the river provide insights for management of similar riparian ecosystems around the world. We analyze vegetation extent based on maps and imagery from eight dates between 1965 and 2009, coupled with the instantaneous hydrograph for the entire period. Analysis confirms a net increase in vegetated area since completion of the dam. Magnitude and timing of such vegetation changes are river stage-dependent. Vegetation expansion is coincident with inundation frequency changes and is unlikely to occur for time periods when inundation frequency exceeds approximately 5%. Vegetation expansion at lower zones of the riparian area is greater during the periods with lower peak and higher base flows, while vegetation at higher zones couples with precipitation patterns and decreases during drought. Short pulses of high flow, such as the controlled floods of the Colorado River in 1996, 2004, and 2008, do not keep vegetation from expanding onto bare sand habitat. Management intended to promote resilience of riparian vegetation must contend with communities that are sensitive to the interacting effects of altered flood regimes and water availability from river and precipitation.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/2015JG002991","usgsCitation":"Sankey, J.B., Ralston, B.E., Grams, P.E., Schmidt, J.C., and Cagney, L.E., 2015, Riparian

To inform land managers of trends on protected landscapes and identify potential conservation strategies, we collected occurrence data for five wetland-breeding amphibian species in four national parks in the U.S. Rocky Mountains during 2002&ndash;2011. We used explicit dynamics models to estimate variation in annual occupancy, extinction, and colonization of wetlands according to summer drought and several biophysical characteristics (e.g., wetland size, elevation), including the influence of North American beaver (</span><i>Castor canadensis</i><span>). We found more declines in occupancy than increases, especially in Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks (NP), where three of four species declined since 2002. However, most species in Rocky Mountain NP were too rare to include in our analysis, which likely reflects significant historical declines. Although beaver were uncommon, their creation or modification of wetlands was associated with higher colonization rates for 4 of 5 amphibian species, producing a 34% increase in occupancy in beaver-influenced wetlands compared to wetlands without beaver influence. Also, colonization rates and occupancy of boreal toads (</span><i>Anaxyrus boreas</i><span>) and Columbia spotted frogs (</span><i>Rana luteiventris</i><span>) were ⩾2 times higher in beaver-influenced wetlands. These strong relationships suggest management for beaver that fosters amphibian recovery could counter declines in some areas. Our data reinforce reports of widespread declines of formerly and currently common species, even in areas assumed to be protected from most forms of human disturbance, and demonstrate the close ecological association between beaver and wetland-dependent species.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.biocon.2015.05.005","usgsCitation":"Hossack, B.R., Gould,

Surveys on inshore and offshore reefs were conducted at 13 sites in 2010, with 12 sites resurveyed in 2013. Thirty coral diseases affecting 15 coral genera were found, with low overall disease prevalence (&lt;1%).

We found the first trematode infection in&nbsp;<i>Porites</i>&nbsp;outside of Hawaii. Disease prevalence differed among coral genera, with&nbsp;<i>Porites</i>&nbsp;having more lesions, and&nbsp;<i>Acropora</i>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<i>Montipora</i>&nbsp;fewer lesions, than expected on the basis of field abundance. Inshore reefs had a lower coral-colony density, species diversity and reduced CCA cover than did the offshore reefs. Disease prevalence was significantly higher on inshore reefs in 2013 than in 2010, but did not change on offshore reefs. The potential ecological impact of individual coral diseases was assessed using an integrative-scoring and relative-ranking scheme based on average frequency of occurrence, prevalence and estimated degree of virulence. The top-five ranked diseases were all tissue-loss diseases.</p>\n<p>&nbsp;</p>","language":"English","publisher":"CSIRO Publishing","doi":"10.1071/MF14151","usgsCitation":"Aeby, G.S., Tribollet, A., Lasne, G., and Work, T.M., 2015, Assessing threats from coral and crustose coralline algae disease on the reefs of New Caledonia: Marine and Freshwater Research, v. 34, p. 393-406, https://doi.org/10.1071/MF14151.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"393","endPage":"406","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-057806","costCenters":[{"id":456,"text":"National Wildlife Health Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":306906,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"34","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":6,"text":"Columbus PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"55d5a8ade4b0518e3546a4b1","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Aeby, Greta S.","contributorId":64783,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Aeby","given":"Greta","email":"","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[{"id":13394,"text":"Hawai‘i Institute of Marine Biology","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":568103,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Tribollet, Aline","contributorId":71886,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Tribollet","given":"Aline","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":568104,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Lasne, Gregory","contributorId":41339,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lasne","given":"Gregory","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":568105,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Work, Thierry M. 0000-0002-4426-9090 thierry_work@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4426-9090","contributorId":1187,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Work","given":"Thierry","email":"thierry_work@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":456,"text":"National Wildlife Health Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":568102,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}
