In addition, no studies have attempted to explain the variation across facilities. We digitized land transformation at 39 wind facilities using high resolution aerial imagery. We then modeled the effects of turbine size, configuration, land cover, and topography on the levels of land transformation at three spatial scales. The scales included strings (turbines with intervening roads only), sites (strings with roads connecting them, buried cables and other infrastructure), and entire facilities (sites and the roads or transmission lines connecting them to existing infrastructure). An information theoretic modeling approach indicated land cover and topography were well-supported variables affecting land transformation, but not turbine size or configuration. Tilled landscapes, despite larger distances between turbines, had lower average land transformation, while facilities in forested landscapes generally had the highest land transformation. At site and string scales, flat topographies had the lowest land transformation, while facilities on mesas had the largest. The results indicate the landscape in which the facilities are placed affects the levels of land transformation associated with wind energy. This creates opportunities for optimizing wind energy production while minimizing land cover change. In addition, the results indicate forecasting the impacts of wind energy on land transformation should include the geographic variables affecting land transformation reported here.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"PLoS ONE","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"Public Library of Science","publisherLocation":"San Francisco, CA","doi":"10.1371/journal.pone.0088914","usgsCitation":"Diffendorfer, J.E., and Compton, R.W., 2014, Land cover and topography affect the land transformation caused by wind facilities: PLoS ONE, v. 9, no. 2, 7 p., https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0088914.","productDescription":"7 p.","numberOfPages":"7","ipdsId":"IP-049019","costCenters":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473092,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0088914","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":284859,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":284841,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0088914"}],"country":"United States","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ 173.0,16.916667 ], [ 173.0,71.833333 ], [ -66.95,71.833333 ], [ -66.95,16.916667 ], [ 173.0,16.916667 ] ] ] } } ] }","volume":"9","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2014-02-18","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"53517051e4b05569d805a2fb","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Diffendorfer, Jay E. 0000-0003-1093-6948 jediffendorfer@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1093-6948","contributorId":55137,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Diffendorfer","given":"Jay","email":"jediffendorfer@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":491978,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Compton, Roger W. rwcompton@usgs.gov","contributorId":2780,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Compton","given":"Roger","email":"rwcompton@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[],"preferred":true,"id":491977,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

We used hunter harvest data from 2002 to 2013 to investigate chronic wasting disease (CWD) infection rate and transmission modes, and address how alternative management approaches affect disease dynamics in a Wisconsin white-tailed deer population. Uncertainty regarding demographic impacts of CWD on cervid populations, human and domestic animal health concerns, and potential economic consequences underscore the need for strategies to control CWD distribution and prevalence. Using maximum-likelihood methods to evaluate alternative multi-state deterministic models of CWD transmission, harvest data strongly supports a frequency-dependent transmission structure with sex-specific infection rates that are two times higher in males than females. As transmissible spongiform encephalopathies are an important and difficult-to-study class of diseases with major economic and ecological implications, our work supports the hypothesis of frequency-dependent transmission in wild deer at a broad spatial scale and indicates that effective harvest management can be implemented to control CWD prevalence. Specifically, we show that harvest focused on the greater-affected sex (males) can result in stable population dynamics and control of CWD within the next 50 years, given the constraints of the model. We also provide a quantitative estimate of geographic disease spread in southern Wisconsin, validating qualitative assessments that CWD spreads relatively slowly. Given increased discovery and distribution of CWD throughout North America, insights from our study are valuable to management agencies and to the general public concerned about the impacts of CWD on white-tailed deer populations.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"PLOS","doi":"10.1371/journal.pone.0091043","usgsCitation":"Jennelle, C., Henaux, V., Wasserberg, G., Thiagarajan, B., Rolley, R.E., and Samuel, M.D., 2014, Transmission of chronic wasting disease in Wisconsin white-tailed deer: Implications for disease spread and management: PLoS ONE, v. 9, no. 3, p. 1-12, https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0091043.","productDescription":" e91043; 12 p.","startPage":"1","endPage":"12","ipdsId":"IP-038460","costCenters":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473099,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0091043","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":340673,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Wisconsin","volume":"9","issue":"3","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2014-03-21","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"59084932e4b0fc4e448ffd82","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Jennelle, Christopher S.","contributorId":50823,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Jennelle","given":"Christopher S.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":693757,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Henaux, Viviane","contributorId":171388,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Henaux","given":"Viviane","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":24576,"text":"University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":693758,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Wasserberg, Gideon","contributorId":31185,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wasserberg","given":"Gideon","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":693759,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Thiagarajan, Bala","contributorId":92520,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Thiagarajan","given":"Bala","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":693760,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Rolley, Robert E.","contributorId":171376,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Rolley","given":"Robert","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":24833,"text":"Wisconsin DNR, Madison, WI","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":693761,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Samuel, Michael D. msamuel@usgs.gov","contributorId":1419,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Samuel","given":"Michael","email":"msamuel@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":693721,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

While research clearly demonstrates that AIVs can move across the Pacific or Atlantic Ocean, there has been no data to support the mechanism of how this occurs. In spring and autumn of 2010 and autumn of 2011 we obtained cloacal swab samples from 1078 waterfowl, gulls, and shorebirds of various species in southwest and west Iceland and tested them for AIV. From these, we isolated and fully sequenced the genomes of 29 AIVs from wild caught gulls (Charadriiformes) and waterfowl (Anseriformes) in Iceland. We detected viruses that were entirely (8 of 8 genomic segments) of American lineage, viruses that were entirely of Eurasian lineage, and viruses with mixed American-Eurasian lineage. Prior to this work only 2 AIVs had been reported from wild birds in Iceland and only the sequence from one segment was available in GenBank. This is the first report of finding AIVs of entirely American lineage and Eurasian lineage, as well as reassortant viruses, together in the same geographic location. Our study demonstrates the importance of the North Atlantic as a corridor for the movement of AIVs between Europe and North America.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Public Library of

Today, a stable island population of ~500 sheep supports limited big game hunting and restocking of depleted areas on the Mexican mainland. We discovered fossil dung morphologically similar to that of bighorn sheep in a dung mat deposit from Mojet Cave, in the mountains of Tiburón Island. To determine the origin of this cave deposit we compared pellet shape to fecal pellets of other large mammals, and extracted DNA to sequence mitochondrial DNA fragments at the 12S ribosomal RNA and control regions. The fossil dung was <sup>14</sup>C-dated to 1476–1632 calendar years before present and was confirmed as bighorn sheep by morphological and ancient DNA (aDNA) analysis. 12S sequences closely or exactly matched known bighorn sheep sequences; control region sequences exactly matched a haplotype described in desert bighorn sheep populations in southwest Arizona and southern California and showed subtle differentiation from the extant Tiburón population. Native desert bighorn sheep previously colonized this land-bridge island, most likely during the Pleistocene, when lower sea levels connected Tiburón to the mainland. They were extirpated sometime in the last ~1500 years, probably due to inherent dynamics of isolated populations, prolonged drought, and (or) human overkill. The reintroduced population is vulnerable to similar extinction risks. The discovery presented here refutes conventional wisdom that bighorn sheep are not native to Tiburón Island, and establishes its recent introduction as an example of unintentional rewilding, defined here as the introduction of a species without knowledge that it was once native and has since gone locally extinct.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"PLoS ONE","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"Public Library of Science","publisherLocation":"San Francisco, CA","doi":"10.1371/journal.pone.0091358","usgsCitation":"Wilder, B.T., Betancourt, J.L., Epps, C., Crowhurst, R., Mead, J.I., and Ezcurra, E., 2014, Local extinction and unintentional rewilding of bighorn sheep (<i>Ovis canadensis</i>) on a desert island: PLoS ONE, v. 9, no. 3, 9 p., https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0091358.","productDescription":"9 p.","numberOfPages":"9","onlineOnly":"Y","ipdsId":"IP-054087","costCenters":[{"id":436,"text":"National Research Program - Eastern Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473101,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0091358","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":288492,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":288491,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0091358"}],"country":"Mexico","otherGeospatial":"Gulf Of California;Tibur�n Island","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -112.799,28.6322 ], [ -112.799,29.2971 ], [ -112.0513,29.2971 ], [ -112.0513,28.6322 ], [ -112.799,28.6322 ] ] ] } } ] }","volume":"9","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2014-03-19","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"539acc09e4b0e83db6d08f87","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Wilder, Benjamin T.","contributorId":40518,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wilder","given":"Benjamin","email":"","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":494625,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Betancourt, Julio L. 0000-0002-7165-0743 jlbetanc@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7165-0743","contributorId":3376,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Betancourt","given":"Julio","email":"jlbetanc@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":554,"text":"Science and Decisions Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":436,"text":"National Research Program - Eastern Branch","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":438,"text":"National Research Program - Western Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":494623,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Epps, Clinton W.","contributorId":10917,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Epps","given":"Clinton W.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":494624,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Crowhurst, Rachel S.","contributorId":51010,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Crowhurst","given":"Rachel S.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":494626,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Mead, Jim I.","contributorId":87067,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Mead","given":"Jim","email":"","middleInitial":"I.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":494628,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Ezcurra, Exequiel","contributorId":52893,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ezcurra","given":"Exequiel","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":494627,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

Although little is known about nest-cavity availability for these species, one hypothesis to explain differences in population structure is reduced dispersal tendency of larger-bodied cavity-nesting species due to limited abundance of large cavities. To investigate this hypothesis, we examined population structure of three cavity-nesting waterfowl species distributed across much of North America: Barrow's Goldeneye (</span><i><i>Bucephala islandica</i></i><span>), Common Goldeneye (</span><i><i>B. clangula</i></i><span>), and Bufflehead (</span><i><i>B. albeola</i></i><span>). We compared patterns of population structure using both variation in mtDNA control-region sequences and band-recovery data for the same species and geographic regions. Results were highly congruent between data types, showing structured population patterns for Barrow's and Common Goldeneye but not for Bufflehead. Consistent with our prediction, the smallest cavity-nesting species, the Bufflehead, exhibited the lowest level of population differentiation due to increased dispersal and gene flow. Results provide evidence for discrete Old and New World populations of Common Goldeneye and for differentiation of regional groups of both goldeneye species in Alaska, the Pacific Northwest, and the eastern coast of North America. Results presented here will aid management objectives that require an understanding of population delineation and migratory connectivity between breeding and wintering areas. Comparative studies such as this one highlight factors that may drive patterns of genetic diversity and population trends.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"American Ornithological Society","doi":"10.1642/AUK-13-071.1","usgsCitation":"Pearce, J.M., Eadie, J.M., Savard, J.L., Christensen, T.K., Berdeen, J., Taylor, E., Boyd, S., and Einarsson, A., 2014, Comparative population structure of cavity-nesting sea ducks: The Auk, v. 131, no. 2, p. 195-207, https://doi.org/10.1642/AUK-13-071.1.","productDescription":"13 p.","startPage":"195","endPage":"207","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-049100","costCenters":[{"id":117,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology WTEB","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473102,"rank":2,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1642/auk-13-071.1","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":296071,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"131","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5465d630e4b04d4b7dbd6594","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Pearce, John M. 0000-0002-8503-5485 jpearce@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8503-5485","contributorId":181766,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Pearce","given":"John","email":"jpearce@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":114,"text":"Alaska Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":117,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology WTEB","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":524849,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Eadie, John M.","contributorId":34067,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Eadie","given":"John","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":6961,"text":"Department of Wildlife, Fish & Conservation Biology, University of California, Davis","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":525141,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Savard, Jean-Pierre L.","contributorId":101776,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Savard","given":"Jean-Pierre","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":6962,"text":"Science and Technology Branch, Environment Canada","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":525142,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Christensen, Thomas K.","contributorId":69381,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Christensen","given":"Thomas","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[{"id":6963,"text":"Department of Bioscience, Aarhus University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":525143,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Berdeen, James","contributorId":54319,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Berdeen","given":"James","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":6964,"text":"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":525144,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Taylor, Eric J.","contributorId":41966,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Taylor","given":"Eric J.","affiliations":[{"id":6661,"text":"US Fish and Wildlife Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":525145,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Boyd, Sean","contributorId":76672,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Boyd","given":"Sean","affiliations":[{"id":6962,"text":"Science and Technology Branch, Environment Canada","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":525146,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Einarsson, Arni","contributorId":127434,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Einarsson","given":"Arni","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":6965,"text":"Mývatn Research Station and Department of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Iceland","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":525147,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8}]}}

Compared to alternatives, the most effective models share some combination of the following characteristics: simpler, smaller, faster, general, idiosyncratic or manipulable. We argue that biological soil crusts (biocrusts) have unique combinations of these features that should be more widely exploited in community, landscape and ecosystem ecology. In community ecology, biocrusts are elucidating the importance of biodiversity and spatial pattern for maintaining ecosystem multifunctionality due to their manipulability in experiments. Due to idiosyncrasies in their modes of facilitation and competition, biocrusts have led to new models on the interplay between environmental stress and biotic interactions and on the maintenance of biodiversity by competitive processes. Biocrusts are perhaps one of the best examples of micro-landscapes—real landscapes that are small in size. Although they exhibit varying patch heterogeneity, aggregation, connectivity and fragmentation, like macro-landscapes, they are also compatible with well-replicated experiments (unlike macro-landscapes). In ecosystem ecology, a number of studies are imposing small-scale, low cost manipulations of global change or state factors in biocrust micro-landscapes. The versatility of biocrusts to inform such disparate lines of inquiry suggests that they are an especially useful model system that can enable researchers to see ecological principles more clearly and quickly.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Biodiversity and Conservation","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"Chapman & Hall","publisherLocation":"Andover, Hants, UK","doi":"10.1007/s10531-014-0658-x","usgsCitation":"Bowker, M.A., Maestre, F.T., Eldridge, D., Belnap, J., Castillo-Monroy, A., Escolar, C., and Soliveres, S., 2014, Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) as a model system in community, landscape and ecosystem ecology: Biodiversity and Conservation, v. 23, no. 7, p. 1619-1637, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10531-014-0658-x.","productDescription":"19 p.","startPage":"1619","endPage":"1637","numberOfPages":"19","ipdsId":"IP-053108","costCenters":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":488369,"rank":0,"type":{"id":41,"text":"Open Access External Repository Page"},"url":"http://dspace.utpl.edu.ec/handle/123456789/19144","text":"External Repository"},{"id":294289,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":294258,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10531-014-0658-x"},{"id":294259,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs10531-014-0658-x"}],"volume":"23","issue":"7","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2014-03-09","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5422bb18e4b08312ac7cef45","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Bowker, Matthew A. mbowker@usgs.gov","contributorId":2875,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bowker","given":"Matthew","email":"mbowker@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":true,"id":501978,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Maestre, Fernando T.","contributorId":62450,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Maestre","given":"Fernando","email":"","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":501980,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Eldridge, David","contributorId":103595,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Eldridge","given":"David","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":501983,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Belnap, Jayne 0000-0001-7471-2279 jayne_belnap@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7471-2279","contributorId":1332,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Belnap","given":"Jayne","email":"jayne_belnap@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":501977,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Castillo-Monroy, Andrea","contributorId":69904,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Castillo-Monroy","given":"Andrea","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":501981,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Escolar, Cristina","contributorId":70241,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Escolar","given":"Cristina","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":501982,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Soliveres, Santiago","contributorId":37194,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Soliveres","given":"Santiago","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":501979,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}

Or perhaps the ultrasensitive electric organs decorating the underside of the snout can follow the map of the earth’s magnetic field. Either way, time to make a beeline for the welcoming waters of the Suwannee River, or maybe the Apalachicola, Choctawhatchee, or one of four other spawning rivers. Some of the adults are on a special mission – time to spawn, time to perpetuate the species. Mature males form the first wave in this homebound marathon, eager to get to the spawning grounds, eager to be the first to greet ready females with a series of sharp clicking sounds. Only spawning once each three years, females laden with large black eggs demure, taking their time, arriving in mid to late March, a month behind the early males. But most sturgeons, juveniles and immature adults not ready to spawn, are simply heading home. Not prompted by the spawning urge, they are just following the ancient annual cycle of intense winter feeding in the Gulf, followed by several months of fasting and R&amp;R in the river. </p>","language":"English","publisher":"North American Native Fishes Association","usgsCitation":"Sulak, K.J., 2014, Sex in the Suwannee, the secretive love life of Gulf Sturgeons: American Currents, v. 39, no. 3, p. 22-24.","productDescription":"3 p.","startPage":"22","endPage":"24","ipdsId":"IP-044494","costCenters":[{"id":566,"text":"Southeast Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":341668,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":341667,"rank":1,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://www.nanfa.org/ac2.shtml"}],"country":"United States","state":"Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -90.24169921875,\n              32.30570601389429\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.37353515625,\n              31.952162238024975\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.37353515625,\n              30.845647420182598\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.37353515625,\n              30.240086360983426\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.3076171875,\n              29.783449456820605\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.7802734375,\n              29.668962525992505\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.31884765624999,\n              29.726222319395504\n            ],\n            [\n              -88.83544921874999,\n              29.859701442126756\n            ],\n            [\n              -88.08837890625,\n              29.859701442126756\n            ],\n            [\n              -87.42919921875,\n              29.859701442126756\n            ],\n            [\n              -87.07763671875,\n              29.878755346037977\n            ],\n            [\n              -86.37451171875,\n              29.878755346037977\n            ],\n            [\n              -85.8251953125,\n              29.649868677972304\n            ],\n            [\n              -85.3857421875,\n              29.286398892934763\n            ],\n            [\n              -84.74853515625,\n              29.36302703778376\n            ],\n            [\n              -84.1552734375,\n              29.401319510041485\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.34228515625,\n              29.132970130878636\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.3974609375,\n              29.32472016151103\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.2216796875,\n              30.012030680358613\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.353515625,\n              30.543338954230222\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.5732421875,\n              31.071755902820133\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.68310546875,\n              31.765537409484374\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.232421875,\n              31.98944183792288\n            ],\n            [\n              -84.00146484374999,\n              32.008075959291055\n            ],\n            [\n              -84.83642578125,\n              31.98944183792288\n            ],\n            [\n              -85.67138671875,\n              32.008075959291055\n            ],\n            [\n              -86.63818359375,\n              32.02670629333614\n            ],\n            [\n              -87.62695312499999,\n              32.045332838858506\n            ],\n            [\n              -88.505859375,\n              32.08257455954592\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.3408203125,\n              32.194208672875384\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.97802734375,\n              32.194208672875384\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.24169921875,\n              32.30570601389429\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"39","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"59269bb7e4b0b7ff9fb48973","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Sulak, Kenneth J. 0000-0002-4795-9310 ksulak@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4795-9310","contributorId":2217,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Sulak","given":"Kenneth","email":"ksulak@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":17705,"text":"Wetland and Aquatic Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":566,"text":"Southeast Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":518388,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

Although others have conducted extensive studies on trout-perch ecology, those efforts predated invasions of white perch <i>Morone americana</i>, <i>Dreissena</i> spp., <i>Bythotrephes longimanus</i> and round goby <i>Neogobius melanostomus</i>, suggesting the need to revisit past work. Trout-perch were sampled with bottom trawls at 56 sites during June and September 2010. We examined diets, fecundity, average annual mortality, sex ratio, and long-term population trends at sites sampled since 1961. Trout-perch abundance fluctuated periodically, with distinct shorter- (4-year) and longer-term (over period of 50 years) fluctuations. Males had higher average annual mortality than females. Both sexes were equally abundant at age 0, but females outnumbered males 4:1 by age 2. Diets of trout-perch were dominated by macroinvertebrates, particularly chironomids and <i>Hexagenia</i> sp. Size distributions of trout-perch eggs varied widely and exhibited multiple modes indicative of protracted batch spawning. A review of the few other studies of trout-perch revealed periodic fluctuations in sex ratio of adults, which in light of our evidence of periodicity in abundance suggests the potential for sex-ratio-mediated intrinsic population regulation. Despite the introduction of numerous invasive species in Lake Erie, trout-perch remain one of the most abundant benthic invertivores and the population is relatively stable.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"International Association for Great Lakes Research","publisherLocation":"Toronto","doi":"10.1016/j.jglr.2013.09.004","usgsCitation":"Kocovsky, P.,

Therefore, assessing resource selection by these avian scavengers requires quantifying the availability of terrestrial-based habitats, as well as meteorological variables that influence atmospheric conditions necessary for soaring. In this study, we undertook the first quantitative assessment of habitat- and meteorological-based resource selection in the endangered California condor (<i>Gymnogyps californianu</i>s) within its California range and across the annual cycle. We found that condor use of terrestrial areas did not change markedly within the annual cycle, and that condor use was greatest for habitats where food resources and potential predators could be detected and where terrain was amenable for taking off from the ground in flight (e.g., sparse habitats, coastal areas). Condors originating from different release sites differed in their use of habitat, but this was likely due in part to variation in habitats surrounding release sites. Meteorological conditions were linked to condor use of ecological subregions, with thermal height, thermal velocity, and wind speed having both positive (selection) and negative (avoidance) effects on condor use in different areas. We found little evidence of systematic effects between individual characteristics (i.e., sex, age, breeding status) or components of the species management program (i.e., release site, rearing method) relative to meteorological conditions. Our findings indicate that habitat type and meteorological conditions can interact in complex ways to influence condor resource selection across landscapes, which is noteworthy given the extent of anthropogenic stressors that may impact condor populations (e.g., lead poisoning, wind energy development). Additional studies will be valuable to assess small-scale condor movements in light of these stressors to help minimize their risk to this critically endangered species.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"PLoS","doi":"10.1371/journal.pone.0088430","usgsCitation":"Johnson, J.M., Haig, S.M., Schwarz, C.J., Glendening, J.W., Burnett, L.J., George, D., and Grantham, J., 2014, Resource selection by the California condor (Gymnogyps californianus) relative to terrestrial-based habitats and meteorological conditions: PLoS ONE, v. 9, no. 2, Article e88430; 13 p., https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0088430.","productDescription":"Article e88430; 13 p.","ipdsId":"IP-052760","costCenters":[{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473131,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0088430","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":287156,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -119.10278320312499,\n              36.39475669987386\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.95996093749999,\n              36.01356058518153\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.77319335937499,\n              35.46961797120201\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.66333007812499,\n              35.10193405724606\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.817138671875,\n              34.94899072578227\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.20166015625,\n              34.939985151560435\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.4873046875,\n              35.10193405724606\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.718017578125,\n              35.38904996691167\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.871826171875,\n              35.68407153314097\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.05859375,\n              36.00467348670187\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.311279296875,\n              36.19995805932895\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.62988281249999,\n              36.54494944148322\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.750732421875,\n              36.77409249464195\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.89355468749999,\n              36.914764288955936\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.35498046875,\n              36.923547681089296\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.46484375,\n              36.677230602346214\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.201171875,\n              36.36822190085111\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.91552734375,\n              35.9157474194997\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.58593749999999,\n              35.496456056584165\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.35546875000001,\n              34.66935854524543\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.553466796875,\n              34.42503613021332\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.27880859375001,\n              34.415973384481866\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.037109375,\n              34.551811369170494\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.311767578125,\n              34.687427949314845\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.553466796875,\n              34.867904962568716\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.46557617187499,\n              34.92197103616377\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.27880859375001,\n              35.12889434101051\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.30078125,\n              35.47856499535729\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.47656249999999,\n              36.03133177633187\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.47656249999999,\n              36.48314061639213\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.828125,\n              36.55377524336089\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.10278320312499,\n              36.39475669987386\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"9","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2014-02-11","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"53749075e4b0870f4d23cfe7","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Johnson, J.

Understanding the influence of individual factors (e.g., species, collar characteristics) and landscape characteristics (e.g., forested cover, shrubs, and fencing) on retention of expandable radiocollars for ungulates is important for obtaining empirical data on factors influencing ecology of young-of-the-year ungulates. During 2001&ndash;2009, we captured and radiocollared 198 white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) fawns, 142 pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) fawns, and 73 mule deer (O. hemionus) fawns in South Dakota, Minnesota, and California, USA. We documented 72 (36.4%), 8 (5.6%), and 7 (9.6%) premature (2, SE&thinsp;=&thinsp;0.1, n&thinsp;=&thinsp;75) compared with areas where fawns shed collars (x&thinsp;=&thinsp;3.24&thinsp;km/km<sup>2</sup>, SE&thinsp;=&thinsp;0.1, n&thinsp;=&thinsp;56) prior to 270 days. Researchers of fawns should consider that radiocollars can be shed prematurely when estimating desired sample size to yield a suitable strength of inference about some natural process of interest.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/wsb.366","usgsCitation":"Grovenburg, T.W., Klaver, R.W., Jacques, C.N., Brinkman, T.J., Swanson, C., DePerno, C.S., Monteith, K.L., Sievers, J.D., Bleich, V.C., Kie, J.G., and Jenks, J., 2014, Influence of landscape characteristics on retention of expandable radiocollars on young ungulates: Wildlife Society Bulletin, v. 38, no. 1, p. 89-95, https://doi.org/10.1002/wsb.366.","productDescription":"7 p.","startPage":"89","endPage":"95","numberOfPages":"7","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-029654","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":473138,"rank":0,"type":{"id":41,"text":"Open Access External Repository Page"},"url":"https://lib.dr.iastate.edu/nrem_pubs/232","text":"External Repository"},{"id":286324,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":286323,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1002/wsb.366"}],"country":"United States","state":"California;Minnesota;South Dakota","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -122.64,35.8 ], [ -122.64,45.92 ], [ -93.93,45.92 ], [ -93.93,35.8 ], [ -122.64,35.8 ] ] ] } } ] }","volume":"38","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2013-11-19","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"53517050e4b05569d805a2ec","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Grovenburg, Troy W.","contributorId":57712,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Grovenburg","given":"Troy","email":"","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":350477,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Klaver, Robert W. 0000-0002-3263-9701 bklaver@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3263-9701","contributorId":3285,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Klaver","given":"Robert","email":"bklaver@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":222,"text":"Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":350470,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Jacques, Christopher N.","contributorId":15521,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Jacques","given":"Christopher","email":"","middleInitial":"N.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":350474,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Brinkman, Todd J.","contributorId":39696,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Brinkman","given":"Todd","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":350475,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Swanson, Christopher C.","contributorId":58505,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Swanson","given":"Christopher C.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":350478,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"DePerno, Christopher S.","contributorId":10327,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"DePerno","given":"Christopher","email":"","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":350472,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Monteith, Kevin L.","contributorId":83400,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Monteith","given":"Kevin","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":350479,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Sievers, Jaret D.","contributorId":10717,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Sievers","given":"Jaret","email":"","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":350473,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8},{"text":"Bleich, Vernon C.","contributorId":10293,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bleich","given":"Vernon","email":"","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":350471,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":9},{"text":"Kie, John G.","contributorId":87274,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kie","given":"John","email":"","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":350480,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":10},{"text":"Jenks, Jonathan A.","contributorId":51591,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Jenks","given":"Jonathan A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":350476,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":11}]}}

Because lampricides are not 100% effective, larvae that survive treatment maymetamorphose before streams are again treated. Larvae that survive treatment have not beenwidely studied, so their dynamics are notwell understood.Wetagged and released larvae in six Great Lake tributaries following lampricide treatment and estimated vital demographic rates using multistate tag-recovery models. Model-averaged larval survivals ranged from 56.8 to 57.6%. Model-averaged adult recovery rates, which were the product of juvenile survivals and adult capture probabilities, ranged from 6.8 to 9.3%. Using stochastic simulations, we estimated production of juvenile sea lampreys from a hypothetical population of treatment survivors under different growth conditions based on parameter estimates from this research. For fast-growing populations, juvenile production peaked 2 years after treatment. For slow-growing populations, juvenile production was approximately one-third that of fast-growing populations,with production not peaking until 4 years after treatment. Our results suggest that dynamics (i.e., survival, metamorphosis) of residual larval populations are very similar to those of untreated larval populations. Consequently, residual populations do not necessarily warrant special consideration for the purpose of sea lamprey control and can be ranked for treatment along with other populations. Consecutive lampricide treatments, which are under evaluation by the sea lamprey control program, would bemost effective for reducing juvenile production in large, fast-growing populations.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","publisherLocation":"Toronto, Canada","doi":"10.1016/j.jglr.2013.12.005","usgsCitation":"Johnson, N.S., Swink, W.D., Brenden, T.O., Slade,

More than 80 % of the annual flow in the Ganges River occurs during the 4-month monsoon, resulting in widespread flooding. During the rest of the year, irrigation, navigation, and ecosystems suffer because of water scarcity. Storage of monsoonal flow for utilization during the dry season is one approach to mitigating these problems. Three conjunctive use management strategies involving subsurface water storage are evaluated in this study: Ganges Water Machine (GWM), Pumping Along Canals (PAC), and Distributed Pumping and Recharge (DPR). Numerical models are used to determine the efficacy of these strategies. Results for the Indian State of Uttar Pradesh (UP) indicate that these strategies create seasonal subsurface storage from 6 to 37 % of the yearly average monsoonal flow in the Ganges exiting UP over the considered range of conditions. This has clear implications for flood reduction, and each strategy has the potential to provide irrigation water and to reduce soil waterlogging. However, GWM and PAC require significant public investment in infrastructure and management, as well as major shifts in existing water use practices; these also involve spatially-concentrated pumping, which may induce land subsidence. DPR also requires investment and management, but the distributed pumping is less costly and can be more easily implemented via adaptation of existing water use practices in the basin.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Water Resources Management","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s11269-014-0537-y","usgsCitation":"Khan, M.R., Voss, C.I., Yu, W., and Michael, H.A., 2014, Water resources management in the Ganges Basin: a comparison of three strategies for conjunctive use of groundwater and surface water: Water Resources Management, v. 28, no. 5, p. 1235-1250, https://doi.org/10.1007/s11269-014-0537-y.","productDescription":"16 p.","startPage":"1235","endPage":"1250","numberOfPages":"16","ipdsId":"IP-053808","costCenters":[{"id":438,"text":"National Research Program - Western Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473141,"rank":0,"type":{"id":41,"text":"Open Access External Repository Page"},"url":"http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2016/03/26044370/water-resources-management-ganges-basin-comparison-three-strategies-conjunctive-use-groundwater-surface-water","text":"External Repository"},{"id":295524,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":295486,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11269-014-0537-y"}],"country":"Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Tibet","otherGeospatial":"Ganges Basin","volume":"28","issue":"5","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2014-03-09","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"544775d5e4b0f888a81b835a","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Khan, Mahfuzur R.","contributorId":36477,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Khan","given":"Mahfuzur","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":503562,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Voss, Clifford I. 0000-0001-5923-2752 cvoss@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5923-2752","contributorId":1559,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Voss","given":"Clifford","email":"cvoss@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"I.","affiliations":[{"id":438,"text":"National Research Program - Western Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":503560,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Yu, Winston","contributorId":84293,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Yu","given":"Winston","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":503563,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Michael, Holly A.","contributorId":29336,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Michael","given":"Holly","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":503561,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

As the promise of robust ES-driven management is put to the test, shortcomings in our ability to accurately measure, map, and value ES have surfaced. On the research side, mainstream methods for ES assessment still fall short of addressing the complex, multi-scale biophysical and socioeconomic dynamics inherent in ES provision, flow, and use. On the practitioner side, application of methods remains onerous due to data and model parameterization requirements. Further, it is increasingly clear that the dominant “one model fits all” paradigm is often ill-suited to address the diversity of real-world management situations that exist across the broad spectrum of coupled human-natural systems. This article introduces an integrated ES modeling methodology, named ARIES (ARtificial Intelligence for Ecosystem Services), which aims to introduce improvements on these fronts. To improve conceptual detail and representation of ES dynamics, it adopts a uniform conceptualization of ES that gives equal emphasis to their production, flow and use by society, while keeping model complexity low enough to enable rapid and inexpensive assessment in many contexts and for multiple services. To improve fit to diverse application contexts, the methodology is assisted by model integration technologies that allow assembly of customized models from a growing model base. By using computer learning and reasoning, model structure may be specialized for each application context without requiring costly expertise. In this article we discuss the founding principles of ARIES - both its innovative aspects for ES science and as an example of a new strategy to support more accurate decision making in diverse application contexts.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"PLoS ONE","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"PLoS ONE","doi":"10.1371/journal.pone.0091001","usgsCitation":"Villa, F., Bagstad, K.J., Voigt, B., Johnson, G.W., Portela, R., Honzak, M., and Batker, D., 2014, A methodology for adaptable and robust ecosystem services assessment: PLoS ONE, v. 9, no. 3, e91001; 18 p., https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0091001.","productDescription":"e91001; 18 p.","ipdsId":"IP-051219","costCenters":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473151,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0091001","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":283998,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":283997,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0091001"}],"volume":"9","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2014-03-13","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"53516ef2e4b05569d8059f23","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Villa, Ferdinando","contributorId":84249,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Villa","given":"Ferdinando","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":491526,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Bagstad, Kenneth J. 0000-0001-8857-5615 kjbagstad@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8857-5615","contributorId":3680,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bagstad","given":"Kenneth","email":"kjbagstad@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":491524,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Voigt, Brian","contributorId":102962,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Voigt","given":"Brian","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":491530,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Johnson, Gary W.","contributorId":90618,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Johnson","given":"Gary","email":"","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":491527,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Portela, Rosimeiry","contributorId":102791,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Portela","given":"Rosimeiry","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":491529,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Honzak, Miroslav","contributorId":97815,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Honzak","given":"Miroslav","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":491528,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Batker, David","contributorId":39288,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Batker","given":"David","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":491525,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}

Soil and vegetation samples were taken at three unaltered andesite and three hydrothermally altered (acid-sulfate) sites located in and around Lassen VolcanicNational Park in northeastern California. In addition, three different types of disturbed areas (clearcut, thinned, and pipeline) were sampled in acid-sulfate altered sites. Soils were sampled (0–15 cm) in mid-summer 2010 from both under-canopy and between-canopy areas within each of the sites. Soils were analyzed for numerous physical and chemical properties along with soil enzyme assays, C and N mineralization potential, microbial biomass-C and C-substrate utilization. Field vegetation measurements consisted of canopy cover by life form (tree, shrub, forb, and grass), tree and shrub density, and above-ground net primary productivity of the understory. Overall, parameters at the clearcut sites were more similar to the unaltered sites, while parameters at the thinned and pipeline sites were more similar to the altered sites. We employed principal components analysis (PCA) to develop two soil quality indices (SQI) to help quantify the differences among the sites: one based on the correlation between soil parameters and canopy cover, and the second based on six sub-indices. Soil quality indices developed in these systems could provide a means for monitoring and identifying key relations between the vegetation, soils, and microorganisms.","language":"English","publisher":"Soil Science Society of America","doi":"10.2136/sssaj2013.07.0298","usgsCitation":"Blecker, S., Stillings, L., DeCrappeo, N., and Ippolito, J., 2014, Soil-plant-microbial relations in hydrothermally altered soils of Northern California: Soil Science Society of America Journal, v. 78, no. 2, p. 509-519, https://doi.org/10.2136/sssaj2013.07.0298.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"509","endPage":"519","ipdsId":"IP-052476","costCenters":[{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true},{"id":34983,"text":"Contaminant Biology Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473153,"rank":0,"type":{"id":41,"text":"Open Access External Repository Page"},"url":"https://eprints.nwisrl.ars.usda.gov/id/eprint/1575/1/1531.pdf","text":"External Repository"},{"id":286410,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","volume":"78","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2014-02-21","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"53517064e4b05569d805a3c1","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Blecker, S.W.","contributorId":99671,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Blecker","given":"S.W.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":492850,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Stillings, L.L.","contributorId":52229,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Stillings","given":"L.L.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":492847,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"DeCrappeo, N.M.","contributorId":86269,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"DeCrappeo","given":"N.M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":492849,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Ippolito, J.A.","contributorId":54890,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ippolito","given":"J.A.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":492848,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

One of these materials is ash, which is the particulate residue remaining or deposited on the ground that consists of mineral materials and charred organic components. The quantity and characteristics of ash produced during a wildland fire depend mainly on (1) the total burned fuel (i.e. fuel load), (2) fuel type and (3) its combustion completeness. For a given fuel load and type, a higher combustion completeness will reduce the ash organic carbon content, increasing the relative mineral content, and hence reducing total mass of ash produced. The homogeneity and thickness of the ash layer can vary substantially in space and time and reported average thicknesses range from close to 0 to 50&nbsp;mm. Ash is a highly mobile material that, after its deposition, may be incorporated into the soil profile, redistributed or removed from a burned site within days or weeks by wind and water erosion to surface depressions, footslopes, streams, lakes, reservoirs and, potentially, into marine deposits.</p><p id=\"sp0010\">Research on the composition, properties and effects of ash on the burned ecosystem has been conducted on material collected in the field after wildland and prescribed fires as well as on material produced in the laboratory. At low combustion completeness (typically T&nbsp;&lt;&nbsp;450&nbsp;°C), ash is organic-rich, with organic carbon as the main component. At high combustion completeness (T&nbsp;&gt;&nbsp;450&nbsp;°C), most organic carbon is volatized and the remaining mineral ash has elevated pH when in solution. It is composed mainly of calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, silicon and phosphorous in the form of inorganic carbonates, whereas at T&nbsp;&gt;&nbsp;580&nbsp;°C the most common forms are oxides. Ash produced under lower combustion completeness is usually darker, coarser, and less dense and has a higher saturated hydraulic conductivity than ash with higher combustion completeness, although physical reactions with CO<sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;</span>and when moistened produce further changes in ash characteristics.</p><p id=\"sp0015\">As a new material present after a wildland fire, ash can have profound effects on ecosystems. It affects biogeochemical cycles, including the C cycle, not only within the burned area, but also globally. Ash incorporated into the soil increases temporarily soil pH and nutrient pools and changes physical properties such as albedo, soil texture and hydraulic properties including water repellency. Ash modifies soil hydrologic behavior by creating a two-layer system: the soil and the ash layer, which can function in different ways depending on (1) ash depth and type, (2) soil type and (3) rainfall characteristics. Key parameters are the ash's water holding capacity, hydraulic conductivity and its potential to clog soil pores. Runoff from burned areas carries soluble nutrients contained in ash, which can lead to problems for potable water supplies. Ash deposition also stimulates soil microbial activity and vegetation growth.</p><p id=\"sp0020\">Further work is needed to (1) standardize methods for investigating ash and its effects on the ecosystem, (2) characterize ash properties for specific ecosystems and wildland fire types, (3) determine the effects of ash on human and ecosystem health, especially when transported by wind or water, (4) investigate ash's controls on water and soil losses at slope and catchment scales, (5) examine its role in the C cycle, and (6) study its redistribution and fate in the environment.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.earscirev.2013.12.007","usgsCitation":"Bodi, M.B., Martin, D.A., Balfour, V.N., Santin, C., Doerr, S.H., Pereira, P., Cerda, A., and Mataix-Solera, J., 2014, Wildland fire ash: Production, composition and eco-hydro-geomorphic effects: Earth-Science Reviews, v. 130, p. 103-127, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2013.12.007.","productDescription":"25 p.","startPage":"103","endPage":"127","ipdsId":"IP-053418","costCenters":[{"id":5044,"text":"National Research Program - Central Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":343399,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"130","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":2,"text":"Denver PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"595f4c42e4b0d1f9f057e360","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Bodi, Merche B.","contributorId":194266,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Bodi","given":"Merche","email":"","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":703627,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Martin, Deborah A. 0000-0001-8237-0838 damartin@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8237-0838","contributorId":168662,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Martin","given":"Deborah","email":"damartin@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":5044,"text":"National Research Program - Central Branch","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":37277,"text":"WMA - Earth System Processes Division","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":438,"text":"National Research Program - Western Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":703626,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Balfour, Victoria N.","contributorId":194267,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Balfour","given":"Victoria","email":"","middleInitial":"N.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":703628,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Santin, Cristina","contributorId":194268,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Santin","given":"Cristina","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":703629,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Doerr, Stefan H.","contributorId":194269,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Doerr","given":"Stefan","email":"","middleInitial":"H.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":703630,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Pereira, Paulo","contributorId":194270,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Pereira","given":"Paulo","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":703631,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Cerda, Artemi","contributorId":194271,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Cerda","given":"Artemi","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":703632,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Mataix-Solera, Jorge","contributorId":194272,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Mataix-Solera","given":"Jorge","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":703633,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8}]}}

Communities in limed lakes usually return to acidified conditions once liming is discontinued, suggesting that liming is unlikely to shift acidified lakes to a state equivalent to pre-acidification conditions that requires no further management intervention. While this suggests a low resilience of limed lakes, attributes that confer resilience have not been assessed, limiting our understanding of the efficiency of costly management programs. In this study, we assessed community metrics (diversity, richness, evenness, biovolume), multivariate community structure and the relative resilience of phytoplankton in limed, acidified and circum-neutral lakes from 1997 to 2009, using multivariate time series modeling. We identified dominant temporal frequencies in the data, allowing us to track community change at distinct temporal scales. We assessed two attributes of relative resilience (cross-scale and within-scale structure) of the phytoplankton communities, based on the fluctuation frequency patterns identified. We also assessed species with stochastic temporal dynamics. Liming increased phytoplankton diversity and richness; however, multivariate community structure differed in limed relative to acidified and circum-neutral lakes. Cross-scale and within-scale attributes of resilience were similar across all lakes studied but the contribution of those species exhibiting stochastic dynamics was higher in the acidified and limed compared to circum-neutral lakes. From a resilience perspective, our results suggest that limed lakes comprise a particular condition of an acidified lake state. This explains why liming does not move acidified lakes out of a &ldquo;degraded&rdquo; basin of attraction. In addition, our study demonstrates the potential of time series modeling to assess the efficiency of restoration and management outcomes through quantification of the attributes contributing to resilience in ecosystems.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"PLOS","doi":"10.1371/journal.pone.0091881","usgsCitation":"Baho, D.L., Drakare, S., Johnson, R.K., Allen, C.R., and Angeler, D., 2014, Similar resilience attributes in lakes with different management practices: PLoS ONE, v. 9, no. 3, e91881: 10 p., https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0091881.","productDescription":"e91881: 10 p.","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-054485","costCenters":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473159,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0091881","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":317958,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Sweden","geographicExtents":"{\"type\":\"FeatureCollection\",\"features\":[{\"type\":\"Feature\",\"geometry\":{\"type\":\"Polygon\",\"coordinates\":[[[22.18317,65.72374],[21.21352,65.02601],[21.36963,64.41359],[19.77888,63.60955],[17.84778,62.7494],[17.11955,61.34117],[17.83135,60.63658],[18.78772,60.08191],[17.86922,58.95377],[16.82919,58.71983],[16.44771,57.04112],[15.87979,56.1043],[14.66668,56.20089],[14.10072,55.40778],[12.94291,55.36174],[12.6251,56.30708],[11.78794,57.44182],[11.02737,58.85615],[11.46827,59.43239],[12.30037,60.11793],[12.63115,61.29357],[11.99206,61.80036],[11.93057,63.12832],[12.57994,64.06622],[13.57192,64.04911],[13.91991,64.44542],[13.55569,64.78703],[15.10841,66.19387],[16.10871,67.30246],[16.76888,68.01394],[17.72918,68.01055],[17.99387,68.56739],[19.87856,68.40719],[20.02527,69.06514],[20.64559,69.10625],[21.97853,68.61685],[23.53947,67.93601],[23.56588,66.39605],[23.90338,66.00693],[22.18317,65.72374]]]},\"properties\":{\"name\":\"Sweden\"}}]}","volume":"9","issue":"3","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":12,"text":"Tacoma PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2014-03-11","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"56bdbecbe4b06458514aeee2","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Baho, Didier L.","contributorId":166724,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Baho","given":"Didier","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":619958,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Drakare, Stina","contributorId":166738,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Drakare","given":"Stina","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":619959,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Johnson, Richard K.","contributorId":21810,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Johnson","given":"Richard","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":619960,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Allen, Craig R. 0000-0001-8655-8272 allencr@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8655-8272","contributorId":1979,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Allen","given":"Craig","email":"allencr@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":198,"text":"Coop Res Unit Atlanta","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":619838,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Angeler, David G.","contributorId":25027,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Angeler","given":"David G.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":619961,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

The results contribute new information to an ongoing controversy over whether the eastern wolf (Canis lycaon) is a valid unique species that could be subject to the U. S. Endangered Species Act. Attempts with transcervically deposited wolf semen into nine coyotes over two breeding seasons yielded three coyote pregnancies. One coyote ate her pups, another produced a resorbed fetus and a dead fetus by C-section, and the third produced seven hybrids, six of which survived. These results show that, although it might be unlikely for male western wolves to successfully produce offspring with female western coyotes under natural conditions, western-gray-wolf sperm are compatible with western-coyote ova and that at least one coyote could produce and nurture hybrid offspring. This finding in turn demonstrates that gamete incompatibility would not have prevented western, gray wolves from inseminating western coyotes and thus producing hybrids with coyote mtDNA, a claim that counters the view that the eastern wolf is a separate species. However, some of the difficulties experienced by the other inseminated coyotes tend to temper that finding and suggest that more experimentation is needed, including determining the behavioral and physical compatibility of western gray wolves copulating with western coyotes. Thus although our study adds new information to the controversy, it does not settle it. Further study is needed to determine whether the putative Canis lycaon is indeed a unique species.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"PLoS ONE","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"Public Library of Science","doi":"10.1371/journal.pone.0088861","usgsCitation":"Mech, L.D., Christensen, B., Asa, C., Callahan, M., and Young, J.K., 2014, Production of hybrids between western gray wolves and western coyotes: PLoS ONE, v. 9, no. 2, 7 p., https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0088861.","productDescription":"7 p.","onlineOnly":"Y","ipdsId":"IP-052381","costCenters":[{"id":480,"text":"Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473165,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0088861","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":282814,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":282803,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0088861"}],"volume":"9","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2014-02-25","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5351705be4b05569d805a375","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Mech, L.

The Paglia River drains the Mt. Amiata Hg district, one of the largest Hg-rich regions worldwide. Quantification of Hg, As, and Sb mass loads in this watershed allowed (1) identification of the contamination sources, (2) evaluation of the effects of Hg on the environment, and (3) determination of processes affecting Hg transport. The dominant source of Hg in the Paglia River is runoff from Hg mines in the Mt. Amiata region. The maximum Hg mass load was found to be related to runoff from the inactive Abbadia San Salvatore Mine (ASSM), and up to 30 g day<sup>−1</sup> of Hg, dominantly in the particulate form, was transported both in high and low flow conditions in 2011. In addition, enrichment factors (EFs) calculated for suspended particulate matter (SPM) were similar in different seasons indicating that water discharge controls the quantities of Hg transported in the PRB, and considerable Hg was transported in all seasons studied. Overall, as much as 11 kg of Hg are discharged annually in the PRB and this Hg is transported downstream to the Tiber River, and eventually to the Mediterranean Sea. Similar to Hg, maximum mass loads for As and Sb were found in March 2011, when as much as 190 g day<sup>−1</sup> each of As and Sb were measured from sites downstream from the ASSM. Therefore, the Paglia River represents a significant source of Hg, Sb, and As to the Mediterranean Sea.","language":"English","publisher":"Springer Berlin","publisherLocation":"Heidelberg, Germany","doi":"10.1007/s11356-013-2476-1","usgsCitation":"Rimondi, V., Costagliola, P., Gray, J.E., Lattanzi, P., Nannucci, M., Paolieri, M., and Salvadori, A., 2014, Mass loads of dissolved and particulate mercury and other trace elements in the Mt.

Woody debris, particularly smaller diameter woody debris, plays a key role in maintaining ecosystem nutrient stores following disturbance. Understanding nutrient concentrations within woody debris is necessary for assessing the long-term nutrient balance consequences of altered woody debris retention, particularly in forests slated for use as bioenergy feedstocks. Nutrient concentrations in downed woody debris of various sizes, decay classes, and species were characterized within one such forest type, Populus tremuloides Michx.-dominated forests of northern Minnesota, USA. Nutrient concentrations differed significantly between size and decay classes and generally increased as decay progressed. Fine woody debris (≤ 7.5 cm diameter) had higher nutrient concentrations than coarse woody debris (> 7.5 cm diameter) for all nutrients examined except Na and Mn, and nutrient concentrations varied among species. Concentrations of N, Mn, Al, Fe, and Zn in coarse woody debris increased between one and three orders of magnitude, while K decreased by an order of magnitude with progressing decay. The variations in nutrient concentrations observed here underscore the complexity of woody debris nutrient stores in forested ecosystems and suggest that retaining fine woody debris at harvest may provide a potentially important source of nutrients following intensive removals of bioenergy feedstocks.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Silva Fennica","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"Finnish Society of Forest Science","doi":"10.14214/sf.962","usgsCitation":"Klockow, P.A., D’Amato, A.W., Bradford, J.B., and Fraver, S., 2014, Nutrient concentrations in coarse and fine woody debris of Populus tremuloides Michx.-dominated forests, northern Minnesota, USA: Silva Fennica, v. 48, no. 1, 24 p., https://doi.org/10.14214/sf.962.","productDescription":"24 p.","numberOfPages":"24","ipdsId":"IP-038982","costCenters":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473167,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.14214/sf.962","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":282666,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":282651,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.14214/sf.962"}],"country":"United States","state":"Minnesota","county":"Saint Louis County","city":"Independence;Melrude;Orr","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -93.0966,46.6492 ], [ -93.0966,48.6316 ], [ -91.7893,48.6316 ], [ -91.7893,46.6492 ], [ -93.0966,46.6492 ] ] ] } } ] }","volume":"48","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"53517058e4b05569d805a34b","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Klockow, Paul A.","contributorId":78222,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Klockow","given":"Paul","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":490804,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"D’Amato, Anthony W.","contributorId":28140,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"D’Amato","given":"Anthony","email":"","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":6735,"text":"University of Vermont, Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources","active":true,"usgs":false},{"id":13478,"text":"Department of Forest Resources, University of Minnesota, St. Paul, Minnesota (Correspondence to: russellm@umn.edu)","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":490803,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Bradford, John B. 0000-0001-9257-6303 jbradford@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9257-6303","contributorId":611,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bradford","given":"John","email":"jbradford@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":490802,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Fraver, Shawn","contributorId":91379,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Fraver","given":"Shawn","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":7063,"text":"University of Maine","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":490805,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}
