The spatial variability of this stress is large yet poorly understood. Along the Yampa and Green Rivers in Colorado and Utah, vapour pressure deficit and flow diversions increase downstream. To investigate effects of this gradient on cottonwoods, we measured the percent live canopy and height of randomly selected trees at three sites: Deerlodge Park on the Yampa River (DLP), Island Park on the upper Green (ILP) and Canyonlands National Park on the lower Green (CAN). From these same trees, we took increment cores to understand differences in tree growth in each forest over time. We then related tree metrics to local water availability, streamflow and climatic data. Cottonwoods at CAN were shorter and had lower percent live canopy and growth rate than similarly aged trees upstream. CAN trees that grew higher above the water surface also tended to have lower tree growth, height and live canopy percentage. Furthermore, the correlation between tree growth and maximum vapour pressure deficit showed a much stronger negative shift since 1990 at CAN than at the other sites. All of these differences suggest higher hydrologic stress at CAN, which we attribute to the combined effects of peak flow declines from Flaming Gorge Reservoir, flow diversion and the higher and increasing vapour pressure deficit at CAN. Further research on the variability of hydrologic stress on cottonwoods could help managers anticipate and mitigate the effects of drought stress in these iconic forests.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/eco.2693","usgsCitation":"Thaxton, R.D., Scott, M., Kemper, J.T., Rathburn, S.L., Butzke, S., and Friedman, J.M., 2024, Downstream decreases in water availability, tree height, canopy volume and growth rate in cottonwood forests along the Green River, southwestern USA: Ecohydrology, v. 17, no. 7, e2693, 14 p., https://doi.org/10.1002/eco.2693.","productDescription":"e2693, 14 p.","ipdsId":"IP-162936","costCenters":[{"id":291,"text":"Fort Collins Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":498885,"rank":2,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/eco.2693","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":432479,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"17","issue":"7","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2024-08-07","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Thaxton, Richard D.","contributorId":238181,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Thaxton","given":"Richard","email":"","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[{"id":6621,"text":"Colorado State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909499,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Scott, Michael L.","contributorId":244803,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Scott","given":"Michael L.","affiliations":[{"id":6682,"text":"Utah State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909500,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Kemper, John T.","contributorId":270040,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kemper","given":"John","email":"","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[{"id":6621,"text":"Colorado State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909501,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Rathburn, Sara L.","contributorId":140606,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Rathburn","given":"Sara","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":13539,"text":"Department of Geosciences, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909502,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Butzke, Sabrina","contributorId":342023,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Butzke","given":"Sabrina","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":81824,"text":"Contractor to U.S. Geological Survey","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909503,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Friedman, Jonathan M. 0000-0002-1329-0663","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1329-0663","contributorId":44495,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Friedman","given":"Jonathan","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":291,"text":"Fort Collins Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909504,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

Here, we used a Bayesian multistate model to investigate the movement of two invasive carp species, silver carp (</span><i>Hypophthalmichthys molitrix</i><span>) and bighead carp (</span><i>H. nobilis</i><span>), using acoustic telemetry. The invaded portions of the Illinois and Des Plaines Rivers, USA, are a high priority management zone in the broader efforts to combat the spread of invasive carps from reaching the Laurentian Great Lakes. Our main objective was to characterize the rates of upstream and downstream movements by carps between river pools that are maintained by navigation lock and dam structures. However, we also aimed to evaluate the efficacy of the available telemetry infrastructure to monitor carp movements through this system. We found that, on a monthly basis, most individuals of both species remained within their current river pools: averaging 76.2% of silver carp and 75.5% of bighead carp. Conversely, a smaller proportion of silver carp, averaging 14.2%, and bighead carp, averaging 13.9%, moved to downstream river pools. Movements towards upstream pools were the least likely for both species, with silver carp at an average of 6.7% and bighead carp at 7.9%. The highest probabilities for upstream movements were for fish originating from the three most downstream river pools, where most of the population recruitment occurs. However, our evaluation of the telemetry array’s effectiveness indicated low probability to detect fish in this portion of the river. We provide insights to enhance the placement and use of these monitoring tools, aiming to deepen our comprehension of these species’ movement patterns in the system.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"PeerJ","doi":"10.7717/peerj.17834","usgsCitation":"Stanton, J.C., Brey, M.K., Coulter, A.A., Stewart, D.R., and Knights, B., 2024, Bayesian multistate models for measuring invasive carp movement and evaluating telemetry array performance: PeerJ, v. 12, e17834, 24 p., https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.17834.","productDescription":"e17834, 24 p.","ipdsId":"IP-151880","costCenters":[{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":439228,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.17834","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":432445,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Illinois","otherGeospatial":"Illinois Waterway","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -87.49554914748546,\n              41.90688869415442\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.45630498792075,\n              41.4339499690158\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.8325528903585,\n              39.87365631252747\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.76518343836855,\n              38.31770023259065\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.99975174472505,\n              40.02128386582143\n            ],\n            [\n              -88.86084431751425,\n              41.19214478105948\n            ],\n            [\n              -87.61745601726525,\n              41.47177424129181\n            ],\n            [\n              -87.49554914748546,\n              41.90688869415442\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"12","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2024-08-06","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Stanton, Jessica C. 0000-0002-6225-3703 jcstanton@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6225-3703","contributorId":5634,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Stanton","given":"Jessica","email":"jcstanton@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909278,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Brey, Marybeth K. 0000-0003-4403-9655 mbrey@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4403-9655","contributorId":187651,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Brey","given":"Marybeth","email":"mbrey@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909279,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Coulter, Alison A.","contributorId":90992,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Coulter","given":"Alison","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":26877,"text":"Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, IL","active":true,"usgs":false},{"id":13186,"text":"Purdue University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909281,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Stewart, David R.","contributorId":337778,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Stewart","given":"David","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":40296,"text":"United States Fish and Wildlife Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909282,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Knights, Brent 0000-0001-8526-8468","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8526-8468","contributorId":304124,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Knights","given":"Brent","affiliations":[{"id":65975,"text":"UMESC Retired","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909280,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

We found significant differences in removal rates among seed species. In general, seeds placed closer to nests were more vulnerable to predation than those placed farther away, and seeds in closely spaced patches were more vulnerable than seeds in widely spaced patches. However, the strength of these effects differed by seed species. Differences in handling time among seed species may help to explain these findings; the protective effect of from-nest distance was weaker for species that required less time to transport. For 2 of the seed species, there was an interaction between the distance of seed patches from nests and the distance between patches such that the protective effect of distance between patches decreased as the distance from nests increased. Cheatgrass and bluegrass cover both had small protective effects on seeds.

We found that global network metrics like density remained robust even with a lowered sample size, while local network metrics like eigenvector centrality were unreliable for four of the species.

In this study, we examined chemical and isotopic data to assess if thermogenic gas or saline water from oil producing formations have mixed with groundwater near the Elk Hills and North Coles Levee Oil Fields in the southwestern San Joaquin Valley. Major ion concentrations and stable isotope compositions were largely consistent with natural processes, including mixing of different recharge sources and water-rock interactions. Trace methane concentrations likely resulted from microbial rather than thermogenic sources. Trace concentrations of benzene and other dissolved hydrocarbons in three wells had uncertain sources that could occur naturally or be derived from oil and gas development activities or other anthropogenic sources. In the mid-1990s, two industrial supply wells had increasing Cl and B concentrations likely explained by mixing with up to 15 percent saline oil-field water injected for disposal in nearby injection disposal wells. Shallow groundwater along the western margin of Buena Vista Lake Bed had elevated Cl, B, and SO</span><sub>4</sub><span>&nbsp;concentrations that could be explained by accumulation of salts during natural wetting and drying cycles or, alternatively, legacy surface disposal of saline oil-field water in upgradient ephemeral drainages. This study showed that groundwater had relatively little evidence of thermogenic gas or saline water from oil and gas sources in most parts of the study area. However, the evidence for groundwater mixing with injected disposal water, and possibly legacy surface disposal water, demonstrates produced water management practices as a potential risk factor for groundwater-quality degradation near oil and gas fields. Additional studies in the San Joaquin Valley and elsewhere could improve understanding of such risks by assessing the locations, volumes, and types of produced water disposal practices used during the life of oil fields.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"PLoS","doi":"10.1371/journal.pwat.0000258","usgsCitation":"Warden, J.G., Landon, M.K., Stephens, M.J., Davis, T., Gillespie, J.M.,

Likewise, reef degradation can increase coastal flood risks to people and property. In this study, the valuation of coral reefs in the United States Virgin Islands (USVI), along the coasts of St. Croix, St. John, and St. Thomas, demonstrated the social and economic benefits provided by these natural defenses. Across the territory, more than 481 people and $31.2 million of infrastructure were estimated to receive protection from coral reefs per year (2010 U.S. dollars). In 2017, Hurricanes Irma and Maria significantly damaged coral reefs throughout the archipelago. By combining engineering, ecological, geospatial, social, and economic data and tools, this study provided a rigorous valuation of where potential coral reef restoration projects could help rebuild these damaged habitats and decrease the risks from coastal hazards faced by USVI’s reef-fronted communities. Multiple restoration scenarios were considered in the analysis, two of which are detailed in this report. These include (1) ‘Ecological’ restoration, where restoration creates a structure that is 0.25 m high and 25-m-wide reef, and (2) ‘Hybrid’ restoration, where restoration creates a structure that is 1.25 m high and 5 m wide. There are many ways that such structures could be developed. In the hydrodynamic analyses, there are no assumptions about how the restoration is developed. Many practitioners of both coral (and oyster reef) restoration consider that a reef height of 0.25 m might be delivered from planting corals alone and that 1.25 m might require a combination of artificial structures and coral planting. In a third scenario, the analysis investigated the reduction of protection benefits that would occur through the reduction of 1 meter of naturally occurring reef height due to reef degradation. The reduction of protection due to the loss of reefs can also be interpreted as the protection value of the existing reefs.</p><p><br></p><p>In all studied restoration scenarios, it was assumed that the planting of corals would enhance hydrodynamic roughness, effectively dissipating incident wave energy and reducing the potential for coastal flooding. A standardized approach was employed to strategically locate potential restoration projects along the entire linear extent of existing reefs bordering the USVI, and to identify where coral reef restoration could offer valuable benefits in flood reduction. Potential restoration projects were only located within the existing distribution of reefs across the region, even though numerous sites were positioned far offshore (2-3 km), and some were at relatively deep depths (up to 7 m). Risk-based valuation approaches were followed to delineate flood zones at a 10 m<sup>2</sup><span>&nbsp;</span>resolution along the entire region's reef-lined shorelines for all the potential coral reef restoration scenarios. These were subsequently compared to flood zones without coral reef restoration.</p><p><br></p><p>The potential reduction in coastal flood risk provided by coral reef restoration, and the protection value of existing reefs, were quantified utilizing the latest information available at the time of analysis from the U.S. Census Bureau, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), and Bureau of Economic Analysis for return-interval storm events. The change in Expected Annual Damages (EAD), a metric indicating the annual protection gained due to coral reef restoration, was calculated based on the damages associated with each storm probability. The findings suggest that the benefits of reef restoration are spatially variable within the USVI. In some areas, the analysis showed limited benefits from reef restoration, which may be attributed to the depth or offshore distances of proposed restoration sites. However, there were a number of key areas where reef restoration could have substantial benefits for flood risk reduction.</p><p><br></p><p>The annual flood risk reduction attributed to potential ‘ecological’ coral reef restoration in the USVI was 99 people and $6.1 million (2010 U.S. dollars). The Benefit-to-Cost Ratio (BCR) for this restoration approach was found to be larger than 1 (i.e., cost-effective) along 11% of the St. Croix coastline, 4.9% of the St. John coastline, and 8.7% of the St. Thomas coastline. This analysis offers stakeholders and decision-makers a spatially explicit and rigorous evaluation that illustrates how, where, and when potential coral reef restoration efforts in St. Croix, St. John, and St. Thomas could be instrumental to reducing coastal storm-induced flooding. Understanding areas where reef management, recovery, and restoration could effectively reduce climate hazard-related risks is crucial to protect and enhance the resilience of coastal communities in USVI.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"UC Santa Cruz: Institute of Marine Sciences","doi":"10.48330/E2KW29","usgsCitation":"Gaido-Lasserre, C., Pietsch McNulty, V., Storlazzi, C.D., Reguero, B.,

Furthermore, short-term drought conditions occurring over one season can exacerbate long-term, multidecadal droughts or aridification, by limiting soil water recharge, decreasing plant growth, and altering biogeochemical cycles. Here, we examine how experimentally altered seasonal precipitation regimes in a mixed shrub grassland on the Colorado Plateau impact soil moisture, vegetation, and carbon and nitrogen cycling. The experiment was conducted from 2015 to 2019, during a regional multidecadal drought event, and consisted of three precipitation treatments, which were implemented with removable drought shelters intercepting ~66% of incoming precipitation including: control (ambient precipitation conditions, no shelter), warm season drought (sheltered April–October), and cool season drought (sheltered November–March). To track changes in vegetation, we measured biomass of the dominant shrub,<span>&nbsp;</span><i>Ephedra viridis</i>, and estimated perennial plant and ground cover in the spring and the fall. Soil moisture dynamics suggested that warm season experimental drought had longer and more consistent drought legacy effects (occurring two out of the four drought cycles) than either cool season drought or ambient conditions, even during the driest years. We also found that<span>&nbsp;</span><i>E. viridis</i><span>&nbsp;</span>biomass remained consistent across treatments, while bunchgrass cover declined by 25% by 2019 across all treatments, with the earliest declines noticeable in the warm season drought plots. Extractable dissolved inorganic nitrogen and microbial biomass nitrogen concentrations appeared sensitive to seasonal drought conditions, with dissolved inorganic nitrogen increasing and microbial biomass nitrogen decreasing with reduced soil volumetric water content. Carbon stocks were not sensitive to drought but were greater under<span>&nbsp;</span><i>E. viridis</i><span>&nbsp;</span>patches. Additionally, we found that under<span>&nbsp;</span><i>E. viridis</i>, there was a negative relationship between dissolved inorganic nitrogen and microbial biomass nitrogen, suggesting that drought-induced increases in dissolved inorganic nitrogen may be due to declines in nitrogen uptake from microbes and plants alike. This work suggests that perennial grass plant–soil feedbacks are more vulnerable to both short-term (seasonal) and long-term (multiyear) drought events than shrubs, which can impact the future trajectory of dryland mixed shrub grassland ecosystems as drought frequency and intensity will likely continue to increase with ongoing climate change.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Ecological Society of America","doi":"10.1002/ecy.4393","usgsCitation":"Finger-Higgens, R.A., Hoover, D.L., Knight, A.C., Wilson, S., Bishop, T.B., Reibold, R.H., Reed, S., and Duniway, M.C., 2024, Seasonal drought treatments impact plant and microbial uptake of nitrogen in a mixed shrub grassland on the Colorado Plateau: Ecology, v. 105, no. 9, e4393, 17 p., https://doi.org/10.1002/ecy.4393.","productDescription":"e4393, 17 p.","ipdsId":"IP-158238","costCenters":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":439231,"rank":2,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/ecy.4393","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":432331,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"105","issue":"9","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2024-08-05","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Finger-Higgens, Rebecca A 0000-0002-7645-504X","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7645-504X","contributorId":290211,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Finger-Higgens","given":"Rebecca","email":"","middleInitial":"A","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909206,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Hoover, David L. dlhoover@usgs.gov","contributorId":245331,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hoover","given":"David","email":"dlhoover@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":49151,"text":"USDA-ARS Rangeland Resources Research Unit, Crops Research Laboratory, Fort Collins, CO","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909207,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Knight, Anna C. 0000-0002-9455-2855","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9455-2855","contributorId":255113,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Knight","given":"Anna","email":"","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909208,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Wilson, Savannah 0000-0003-4229-4089","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4229-4089","contributorId":341940,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Wilson","given":"Savannah","affiliations":[{"id":81811,"text":"formerly: USGS Southwest Biological Science Center; current:Center for Ecosystem Science and Society, Northern Arizona University, Flagstaff, AZ, USA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909209,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Bishop, Tara Boyce Belnap 0000-0001-7828-1541","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7828-1541","contributorId":302273,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bishop","given":"Tara","email":"","middleInitial":"Boyce Belnap","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909210,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Reibold, Robin H. 0000-0002-3323-487X","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3323-487X","contributorId":207499,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Reibold","given":"Robin","email":"","middleInitial":"H.","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909211,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Reed, Sasha C. 0000-0002-8597-8619","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8597-8619","contributorId":207498,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Reed","given":"Sasha C.","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909212,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Duniway, Michael C. 0000-0002-9643-2785 mduniway@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9643-2785","contributorId":4212,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Duniway","given":"Michael","email":"mduniway@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909213,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8}]}}

Understanding how risk changes along a migration route supports time-area based fishery management, but quantifying risk can be complicated when multiple fishing methods are geographically segregated and when bycatch species are considered. Further, habitat selection in dynamic environments can influence migration behavior, interacting with other management objectives such as water quality and habitat restoration. As a case study, we examined a novel acoustic telemetry data set for Lake Whitefish in Lake Erie, where they migrate through multiple spatial management units that are variably affected by seasonal hypoxia and host a variety of fisheries. Combining telemetry results with fishery catch and water quality monitoring, we demonstrate three exploitation risk scenarios: i) high risk due to high residency and high catch, ii) high risk due to high residency in time-areas with moderate catch, and iii) low risk due to residency in time-areas with low catch. Interestingly, occupation of low risk refugia was increased by the development of hypoxia in adjacent areas. Consequently, fishery management goals to sustainably manage other target species may be directly and indirectly linked to water quality management goals through Lake Whitefish.","language":"English","publisher":"Springer Nature","doi":"10.1038/s41598-024-65147-5","usgsCitation":"Kraus, R., Cook, H., Sakis, A., MacDougall, T., Faust, M., Schmitt, J., and Vandergoot, C., 2024, Risk of capture is modified by hypoxia and interjurisdictional migration of Lake Whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis): Scientific Reports, v. 14, no. 1, 180061, 13 p., https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-024-65147-5.","productDescription":"180061, 13 p.","ipdsId":"IP-161549","costCenters":[{"id":324,"text":"Great Lakes Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":490619,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-024-65147-5","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":489682,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Canada, United Sates","otherGeospatial":"Lake Erie","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -83.3340237734879,\n              42.2003107892165\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.76123811265276,\n              41.36759241460828\n            ],\n            [\n              -81.80316880718208,\n              41.3146825621337\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.64522615109004,\n              42.56891605267103\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.69689358833503,\n              42.91401349265345\n            ],\n            [\n              -79.6373646641363,\n              43.07393720267635\n            ],\n            [\n              -81.57717526647028,\n              42.625802175312444\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.3340237734879,\n              42.2003107892165\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"14","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2024-08-05","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Kraus, Richard 0000-0003-4494-1841","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4494-1841","contributorId":216548,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kraus","given":"Richard","affiliations":[{"id":324,"text":"Great Lakes Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":939160,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Cook, H.

(2024) allege that there are many “unresolved issues” with the geochronology of White Sands National Park (WHSA) Locality 2. They suggest there are substantial age offsets due to hard-water effects in the aquatic plants that were dated and that radiocarbon ages of pollen may be anomalously old due to reworking. In their view, the luminescence ages are likely to be maximum ages because of the probable presence of partially bleached quartz grains, overestimation of water content, and stratigraphic position of the samples. They also assert the ages of the footprint trackways are not as internally consistent as suggested and can be interpreted in various ways. We review each of these issues and show they are without merit, often irrelevant, at odds with first principles, and stem from a lack of firsthand understanding of the studies we conducted at WHSA Locality 2.","language":"English","publisher":"Taylor & Francis","doi":"10.1080/20555563.2024.2376298","usgsCitation":"Pigati, J.S., Springer, K.B., Gray, H., Bennett, M.R., and Bustos, D., 2024, The geochronology of White Sands Locality 2 is resolved: PaleoAmerica, v. 10, no. 1, p. 28-44, https://doi.org/10.1080/20555563.2024.2376298.","productDescription":"17 p.","startPage":"28","endPage":"44","ipdsId":"IP-166672","costCenters":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":432272,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"New Mexico","otherGeospatial":"White Sands National Park Locality 2","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -106.1550582066009,\n              32.872849990711984\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.48245412248755,\n              32.86930180329608\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.47897029431002,\n              32.69297332923759\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.43042966433936,\n              32.65346535926231\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.37842168773055,\n              32.65559686141792\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.24026970932155,\n              32.68647249739145\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.17377551355794,\n              32.76467012980471\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.13625775965107,\n              32.76682115134125\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.13541548471069,\n              32.789043826774915\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.16611008296357,\n              32.7883270898179\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.16697948523209,\n              32.82630293543325\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.1516350497139,\n              32.829884382487975\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.1550582066009,\n              32.872849990711984\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"10","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2024-08-05","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Pigati, Jeffrey S. 0000-0001-5843-6219 jpigati@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5843-6219","contributorId":201167,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Pigati","given":"Jeffrey","email":"jpigati@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909103,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Springer, Kathleen B. 0000-0002-2404-0264 kspringer@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2404-0264","contributorId":149826,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Springer","given":"Kathleen","email":"kspringer@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909104,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Gray, Harrison J. 0000-0002-4555-7473","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4555-7473","contributorId":207019,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Gray","given":"Harrison J.","affiliations":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909105,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Bennett, Matthew R.","contributorId":265968,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Bennett","given":"Matthew","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":54847,"text":"Bournemouth University, U.K.","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909106,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Bustos, David","contributorId":265969,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Bustos","given":"David","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":36189,"text":"National Park Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909107,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

Rotenone and Carbon Dioxide-Carp are currently the only available registered pesticides for grass carp; they are nonselective and typically applied throughout the water, equally exposing target and native species. A more selective control tool or pesticide application could be used by resource managers to support mitigation efforts. Development of delivery systems that exploit carp feeding strategies could increase selectivity of pesticides and minimize effects on native fishes. A pesticide with selective delivery could be less labor intensive and used within an integrative pest management strategy. The present study examined Antimycin A toxicity in juvenile and sub-adult grass carp and rainbow trout (<i>Oncorhynchus mykiss</i>) across two routes of exposure. Water-based toxicity studies were used to calculate the concentration to cause lethality in 50% of treated fish (LC<sub>50</sub>) at 24-h, while oral gavage toxicity studies were used to calculate the dose to cause lethality in 50% of treated grass carp and rainbow trout (LD<sub>50</sub>) 24- to 96-h. Although rainbow trout were more sensitive than grass carp to Antimycin A through water-based exposure, oral toxicity was similar between species, even with inherent gastrointestinal morphological differences. Successful delivery of a lethal dose of Antimycin A to grass carp was achieved through an oral route of exposure using the rapeseed bait and shows promise for registration as a control tool and eventual use in pest management plans. Although a lethal dose of Antimycin A could be incorporated into a single bait pellet, more bait was required to achieve desired mortality when fed to fish under laboratory conditions.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s10646-024-02771-x","usgsCitation":"Wamboldt, J.J., Steiner, J.N., Sauey, B.W., Lada, B., Putnam, J.G., Korducki, B.M., and Saari, G.N., 2024, Toxicity of a management bait for grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) incorporated with Antimycin A: Ecotoxicology, v. 33, p. 984-995, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10646-024-02771-x.","productDescription":"12 p.","startPage":"984","endPage":"995","ipdsId":"IP-157421","costCenters":[{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":433150,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"33","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2024-08-03","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Wamboldt, James J. 0000-0003-3043-5198","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3043-5198","contributorId":219060,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wamboldt","given":"James","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":911550,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Steiner, J.

Historical daily streamflow data for active and inactive gages were considered for this study with periods of record as recent as March 31, 2022, adding 50 years of data to the last published low-streamflow statistics report for New York and including 119 new gages where low-streamflow statistics are calculated for the first time. Gages were evaluated across several criteria to identify gages that were not suitable for low-streamflow frequency analysis. In addition, gages were evaluated for the presence of alteration within the streamflow period of record based on previous studies and U.S. Geological Survey National Water Information System site metadata including peak flow codes.</p><p>A trend analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon rank-sum hypothesis test comparing data from the most recent 30 years of record to data from 30 years and earlier for each long-record gage (30 years or more of available data). Results from the trend analysis indicated that 45 unaltered and 32 altered long-record sites had a statistically significant trend for the annual minimum <i>n</i>-day time series; most gages showed increasing trends in the annual minimum <i>n</i>-day time series. Low-streamflow statistics were calculated using the most recent 30 years of record for gages with a statistically significant trend. Before and after 1972, the lowest annual 7-day and 30-day average streamflow that occurs (on average) once every 10 years (7Q10 and 30Q10 statistics respectively) increased significantly at 41 unaltered gages and decreased significantly at 3 unaltered gages where data were available.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston,

The increase of antibiotic resistant pathogens threatens public health through direct and indirect exposure, and natural resource managers need information on the spatial patterns of antibiotic resistant bacteria and environmental factors associated with their distribution to improve water quality monitoring and to better assess human, animal, and environmental health risks. We collected water and epilithic biofilm samples and measured physicochemical environmental variables at 29 sites distributed longitudinally in the Green-Duwamish River basin, Washington, USA. We characterized catchment-wide patterns of gram-negative fecal indicator bacteria and hypothesized that the presence of antibiotic resistance would be associated with environmental heterogeneity, bacterial primary ecology, stream compartment, and stream type. Antibiotic resistance was determined by microbial growth on selective media supplemented with 3 different antibiotics (ampicillin, chloramphenicol, or tetracycline). Phenotypic antibiotic resistance was positively associated with disturbance, but resistance to at least 1 antibiotic was also detected in undeveloped river segments, with an 83% overall detection rate (i.e., 24 out of 29 sites, 17 in the mainstem and 7 in tributaries).

Phenotypic resistance was highest among non-<i>E. coli</i><span>&nbsp;</span>coliforms in the water column of tributaries draining moderately to extensively developed subcatchments. Generalized linear mixed-effects model results showed that 18% of the variance in presence of antibiotic resistance was explained by the fixed effects (summed CV across environmental variables, stream type, primary ecology, and stream compartment), and when a spatial random effect was included, the model explained 27% of the variance. Our study provides new evidence that environmental factors and bacterial primary ecology are important underlying factors associated with spatial patterns of antibiotic resistant enteric coliforms. We used macroecological concepts and a riverscape approach to characterize the distribution of antibiotic resistance with methods applicable to municipalities.</p></div></div></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"University of Chicago Press","doi":"10.1086/731976","usgsCitation":"Klock, A.M., Torgersen, C.E., Roberts, M.C., Vogt, D.J., and Vogt, K.A., 2024, Environmental drivers and spatial patterns of antibiotic-resistant, enteric coliforms across a forest–urban riverscape: Freshwater Science, v. 43, no. 3, p. 231-249, https://doi.org/10.1086/731976.","productDescription":"19 p.","startPage":"231","endPage":"249","ipdsId":"IP-100689","costCenters":[{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":432756,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"43","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Klock, Angela M","contributorId":342283,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Klock","given":"Angela","email":"","middleInitial":"M","affiliations":[{"id":6934,"text":"University of Washington","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909967,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Torgersen, Christian E. 0000-0001-8325-2737 ctorgersen@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8325-2737","contributorId":146935,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Torgersen","given":"Christian","email":"ctorgersen@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":289,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosys Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909969,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Roberts, Marilyn C","contributorId":342285,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Roberts","given":"Marilyn","email":"","middleInitial":"C","affiliations":[{"id":6934,"text":"University of Washington","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909968,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Vogt, Daniel J","contributorId":342289,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Vogt","given":"Daniel","email":"","middleInitial":"J","affiliations":[{"id":6934,"text":"University of Washington","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909970,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Vogt, Kristiina A","contributorId":342291,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Vogt","given":"Kristiina","email":"","middleInitial":"A","affiliations":[{"id":6934,"text":"University of Washington","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":909971,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

Discriminating between individual peri-Gondwanan terranes in the detrital record is difficult due to their similar geologic histories. However, characterization of this provenance is critical for understanding late Paleozoic sediment routing during development of Pangea. Along southeastern Laurentia, in the Arkoma Basin (present-day Arkansas and eastern Oklahoma, southeastern United States), we identified Middle Pennsylvanian (Desmoinesian) strata that exhibit a concentrated peri-Gondwanan detrital zircon signature (e.g., ca. 800–550 Ma). Although several southern peri-Gondwanan terranes (e.g., Maya, Suwannee) are closer to the Arkoma Basin, geologic data, such as predominantly north-to-south paleocurrents and proximal-to-distal facies relationships in these Desmoinesian strata, support a northern source (e.g., Ganderia, Avalonia, Meguma). Further evidence of a northern source comes from detrital zircon source mapping, which reveals the persistence of this peri-Gondwanan signal in depocenters to the north of the basin after the signal had diminished in the Arkoma Basin. To this end, bottom-up detrital zircon source modeling, source mapping, regional stratigraphy, paleocurrent data, and sandstone petrography allow us to reconstruct the evolution of this Middle Pennsylvanian (Desmoinesian) sediment pathway in the context of intraplate and plate-margin tectonic activity. This reconstruction documents processes affecting Earth’s surface (e.g., tectonics, climate) during the assembly of Pangea and describes in detail part of a dynamic continental-scale drainage system.</p></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Geological Society of America","doi":"10.1130/GES02740.1","usgsCitation":"Smith, T.M., Dechesne, M., Hirtz, J.A., Sharman, G.R., Hudson, M.R., Lutz, B.M., and Griffis, N.P., 2024, Peri-Gondwanan sediment in the Arkoma Basin derived from the north: The detrital zircon record of a uniquely concentrated non-Laurentian source signal in the late Paleozoic: Geosphere, v. 20, no. 5, p. 1286-1314, https://doi.org/10.1130/GES02740.1.","productDescription":"29 p.","startPage":"1286","endPage":"1314","ipdsId":"IP-159412","costCenters":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":486904,"rank":2,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1130/ges02740.1","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":432430,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"20","issue":"5","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2024-08-02","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Smith, Tyson Michael 0000-0003-2834-3526","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2834-3526","contributorId":330276,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Smith","given":"Tyson","email":"","middleInitial":"Michael","affiliations":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909355,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Dechesne, Marieke 0000-0002-4468-7495","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4468-7495","contributorId":213936,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Dechesne","given":"Marieke","affiliations":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909356,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Hirtz, Jaime Ann Megumi 0000-0002-6701-0137","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6701-0137","contributorId":292911,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hirtz","given":"Jaime","email":"","middleInitial":"Ann Megumi","affiliations":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909357,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Sharman, Glenn R.","contributorId":341980,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Sharman","given":"Glenn","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":909358,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Hudson, Mark R. 0000-0003-4447-7989 mhudson@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4447-7989","contributorId":341982,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hudson","given":"Mark","email":"mhudson@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909359,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Lutz, Brandon Michael 0000-0002-6580-9025","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6580-9025","contributorId":299272,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lutz","given":"Brandon","email":"","middleInitial":"Michael","affiliations":[{"id":64806,"text":"National Cooperative Geologic Mapping","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909360,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Griffis, Neil Patrick 0000-0002-2506-7549","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2506-7549","contributorId":330218,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Griffis","given":"Neil","email":"","middleInitial":"Patrick","affiliations":[{"id":35995,"text":"Geology, Geophysics, and Geochemistry Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":909361,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}
