Observations from these three exploration cruises, coupled with computer modeling and published Global Positioning System (GPS) results and earthquake focal mechanisms, have provided new information that is changing the evaluation of the seismic and tsunami hazard from this plate boundary. The observations collected during these cruises also contributed to the basic understanding of the mechanisms that govern plate tectonics, in this case, the creation of the island of Puerto Rico and the deep trench north of it.

However, the lack of stream temperature (ST) data for the vast majority of streams and rivers severely compromises our ability to describe patterns of thermal variation among streams, test hypotheses regarding the effects of temperature on macroecological patterns, and assess the effects of altered STs on ecological resources. Our goal was to develop empirical models that could: 1) quantify the effects of stream and watershed alteration (SWA) on STs, and 2) accurately and precisely predict natural (i.e., reference condition) STs in conterminous USA streams and rivers. We modeled 3 ecologically important elements of the thermal regime: mean summer, mean winter, and mean annual ST. To build reference-condition models (RCMs), we used daily mean ST data obtained from several thousand US Geological Survey temperature sites distributed across the conterminous USA and iteratively modeled ST with Random Forests to identify sites in reference condition. We first created a set of dirty models (DMs) that related STs to both natural factors (e.g., climate, watershed area, topography) and measures of SWA, i.e., reservoirs, urbanization, and agriculture. The 3 models performed well (r<sup>2</sup> = 0.84–0.94, residual mean square error [RMSE] = 1.2–2.0<span>°</span>C). For each DM, we used partial dependence plots to identify SWA thresholds below which response in ST was minimal. We then used data from only the sites with upstream SWA below these thresholds to build RCMs with only natural factors as predictors (r<sup>2</sup> = 0.87–0.95, RMSE = 1.1–1.9<span>°</span>C). Use of only reference-quality sites caused RCMs to suffer modest loss of predictor space and spatial coverage, but this loss was associated with parts of ST response curves that were flat and, therefore, not responsive to further variation in predictor space. We then compared predictions made with the RCMs to predictions made with the DMs with SWA set to 0. For most DMs, setting SWAs to 0 resulted in biased estimates of thermal reference condition.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"University of Chicago Press","doi":"10.1899/12-009.1","usgsCitation":"Hill, R.A., Hawkins, C.P., and Carlisle, D.M., 2013, Predicting thermal reference conditions for USA streams and rivers: Freshwater Science, v. 32, no. 1, p. 39-55, https://doi.org/10.1899/12-009.1.","productDescription":"17 p.","startPage":"39","endPage":"55","ipdsId":"IP-039780","costCenters":[{"id":451,"text":"National Water Quality Assessment Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473978,"rank":0,"type":{"id":41,"text":"Open Access External Repository Page"},"url":"http://www.bioone.org/doi/10.1899/12-009.1","text":"External Repository"},{"id":347475,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"32","issue":"1","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5a07ef3de4b09af898c8cd84","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Hill, Ryan A.","contributorId":198332,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hill","given":"Ryan","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":6682,"text":"Utah State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":715712,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Hawkins, Charles P.","contributorId":198331,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hawkins","given":"Charles","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":6682,"text":"Utah State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":715711,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Carlisle, Daren M. 0000-0002-7367-348X dcarlisle@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7367-348X","contributorId":513,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Carlisle","given":"Daren","email":"dcarlisle@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":503,"text":"Office of Water Quality","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":37277,"text":"WMA - Earth System Processes Division","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":353,"text":"Kansas Water Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true},{"id":451,"text":"National Water Quality Assessment Program","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":27111,"text":"National Water Quality Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":715710,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Highly parameterized inversion refers to cases in which parameters are distributed in space or time and are correlated with one another. The Bayesian aspect of bgaPEST is related to Bayesian probability theory in which prior information about parameters is formally revised on the basis of the calibration dataset used for the inversion. Conceptually, this approach formalizes the conditionality of estimated parameters on the speciﬁc data and model available. The geostatistical component of the method refers to the way in which prior information about the parameters is used. A geostatistical autocorrelation function is used to enforce structure on the parameters to avoid overﬁtting and unrealistic results. Bayesian Geostatistical Approach is designed to provide the smoothest solution that is consistent with the data. Optionally, users can specify a level of ﬁt or estimate a balance between ﬁt and model complexity informed by the data.

The monitoring was done between 1990 and 2009 with the pre-BMP period ending in July 1994 and the post-BMP period beginning in October 2006. BMPs installed in this basin included streambank protection and fencing, stream crossings, grade stabilization, buffer strips, various barnyard-runoff controls, nutrient management, and a low degree of upland BMPs. Water-quality evaluations included base-flow concentrations and storm loads for total suspended solids, total phosphorus, and ammonia nitrogen. The only reductions detected between the base-flow samples of the pre- and post-BMP periods were in median concentrations of total phosphorus from base-flow samples, but not for total suspended solids or dissolved ammonia nitrogen. Differences in storm loads for the three water-quality constituents monitored were not observed during the study period.","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sir20125217","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources","usgsCitation":"Corsi, S., Horwatich, J.A., Rutter, T.D., and Bannerman, R.T., 2013, Effects of best-management practices in Bower Creek in the East River priority watershed, Wisconsin, 1991-2009: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2012-5217, viii, 21 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20125217.","productDescription":"viii, 21 p.","numberOfPages":"34","onlineOnly":"Y","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","temporalStart":"1990-01-01","temporalEnd":"2009-12-31","costCenters":[{"id":677,"text":"Wisconsin Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":265296,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/sir_2012_5217.gif"},{"id":265294,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2012/5217/"},{"id":265295,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2012/5217/pdf/sir2012-5217_508.pdf"}],"scale":"24000","country":"United States","state":"Wisconsin","county":"Brown","city":"Bellevue;De Pere;Green Leaf;Morrison","otherGeospatial":"Bower Creek","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -88.016667,44.341667 ], [ -88.016667,44.433333 ], [ -87.925,44.433333 ], [ -87.925,44.341667 ], [ -88.016667,44.341667 ] ] ] } } ] }","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"50eaab77e4b02dd6076fada3","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Corsi, Steven R. srcorsi@usgs.gov","contributorId":511,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Corsi","given":"Steven R.","email":"srcorsi@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":677,"text":"Wisconsin Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":471416,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Horwatich, Judy A. 0000-0003-0582-0836 jahorwat@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0582-0836","contributorId":1388,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Horwatich","given":"Judy","email":"jahorwat@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":37947,"text":"Upper Midwest Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":471417,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Rutter, Troy D. 0000-0001-5130-204X tdrutter@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5130-204X","contributorId":2081,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rutter","given":"Troy","email":"tdrutter@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[{"id":37947,"text":"Upper Midwest Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":471418,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Bannerman, Roger T. 0000-0001-9221-2905 rbannerman@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9221-2905","contributorId":5560,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bannerman","given":"Roger","email":"rbannerman@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[{"id":677,"text":"Wisconsin Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":471419,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

Birds are generally found dead on a body of water or are occasionally observed displaying neurologic clinical signs such as an inability to raise or control the head prior to death. Investigation of these epizootic mortality events has revealed the etiology to be accidental poisoning with the rodenticide zinc phosphide (Zn<sub>3</sub>P<sub>2</sub>). Gross and histologic changes are restricted to acute pulmonary congestion and edema, sometimes accompanied by distension of the upper alimentary tract by fresh grass. Geese are unusually susceptible to this pesticide; when combined with an epidemiologic confluence of depredation of specific agricultural crops by rodents and seasonal avian migration pathways, epizootic toxicosis may occur. Diagnosis requires a high index of suspicion, appropriate sample collection and handling, plus specific test calibration for this toxicant. Interagency cooperation, education of farmers regarding pesticide use, and enforcement of regulations has been successful in greatly decreasing these mortality events since 2009.</p>","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal

The most recent was in 1861, and it bankrupted the state. Such floods were most likely caused by atmospheric rivers: narrow bands of water vapor about a mile above the ocean that extend for thousands of miles. Much smaller forms of these rivers regularly hit California, as well as the western coasts of other countries.\nScientists who created a simulated megastorm, called ARkStorm, that was patterned after the 1861 flood but was less severe, found that such a torrent could force more than a million people to evacuate and cause $400 billion in losses if it happened in California today. Forecasters are getting better at predicting the arrival of atmospheric rivers, which will improve warnings about flooding from the common storms and about the potential for catastrophe from a megastorm.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Scientific American","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"Nature Publishing Group","doi":"10.1038/scientificamerican0113-64","usgsCitation":"Dettinger, M., and Ingram, B.L., 2013, The coming megafloods: Scientific American, v. 308, p. 64-71, https://doi.org/10.1038/scientificamerican0113-64.","startPage":"64","endPage":"71","ipdsId":"IP-041832","costCenters":[{"id":148,"text":"Branch of Regional Research-Western Region","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":279637,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":279636,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1038/scientificamerican0113-64"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","volume":"308","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2012-12-18","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"52947f87e4b01cca2b116131","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Dettinger, Michael D. 0000-0002-7509-7332","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7509-7332","contributorId":31743,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Dettinger","given":"Michael D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":468386,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Ingram, B.

With the integration of environmental sensors, these automated systems are able to respond to local conditions and modify their imaging regimes as needed. In this report we describe in detail the design of one type of automated imaging system developed by our group. It is easily replicated, low-cost, highly robust, and is a stand-alone automated camera designed to be placed in remote locations, without wireless connectivity.","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/ofr20121271","usgsCitation":"Bogle, R., Velasco, M., and Vogel, J., 2013, An automated digital imaging system for environmental monitoring applications: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 2012-1271, vi, 18 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr20121271.","productDescription":"vi, 18 p.","numberOfPages":"24","onlineOnly":"Y","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","costCenters":[{"id":657,"text":"Western Geographic Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":265280,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/ofr_2012_1271.gif"},{"id":265278,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2012/1271/"},{"id":265279,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2012/1271/of2012-1271.pdf"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"50e7f9e2e4b033ce2d2433e5","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Bogle, Rian rbogle@usgs.gov","contributorId":81378,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bogle","given":"Rian","email":"rbogle@usgs.gov","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":471399,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Velasco, Miguel","contributorId":50214,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Velasco","given":"Miguel","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":471398,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Vogel, John","contributorId":99825,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Vogel","given":"John","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":471400,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

In this paper, we propose a new approach to analyze the GPS location history data of migratory birds. The stopover sites are first extracted from the location history data of birds, and their movement sequences are generated automatically. Then, a consistency calculation method is introduced for calculating the movement sequence consistency degrees among the birds. The common movement sequences and uncommon behaviors can be recognized on the basis of consistency. We conducted experiments on the data collected from bar-headed geese captured in the Qinghai Lake region. The experiment results indicate the correctness of our approach.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Proceedings of the 2012 International Conference on Information Technology and Software Engineering","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":4,"text":"Other Government Series"},"language":"English","publisher":"Springer","publisherLocation":"Amsterdam, Netherlands","collaboration":"Chapter 44 in <i>Proceedings of the 2012 International Conference on Information Technology and Software Engineering</i>, volume 211 in the Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering series","usgsCitation":"Luo, Z., Xiong, Y., Yan, B., Prosser, D.J., and Takekawa, J.Y., 2013, GPS location history data mining and anomalous detection: the scenario of bar-headed geese migration, chap. <i>of</i> Proceedings of the 2012 International Conference on Information Technology and Software Engineering, v. 211, p. 413-420.","productDescription":"Chapter 44: 8 p.","startPage":"413","endPage":"420","ipdsId":"IP-041488","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":265036,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":265035,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://www.springer.com/computer/database+management+%26+information+retrieval/book/978-3-642-34521-0"}],"volume":"211","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"50e5cfffe4b0a4aa5bb0af01","contributors":{"editors":[{"text":"Lu, W.","contributorId":47576,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lu","given":"W.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":509146,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Cai, G.","contributorId":111348,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Cai","given":"G.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":509148,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Liu, W.","contributorId":79250,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Liu","given":"W.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":509147,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Xing, W.","contributorId":112675,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Xing","given":"W.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":509149,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":4}],"authors":[{"text":"Luo, Ze","contributorId":41307,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Luo","given":"Ze","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":471198,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Xiong, Yan","contributorId":102764,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Xiong","given":"Yan","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":471200,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Yan, Baoping","contributorId":76871,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Yan","given":"Baoping","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":471199,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Prosser, Diann J. 0000-0002-5251-1799 dprosser@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5251-1799","contributorId":2389,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Prosser","given":"Diann","email":"dprosser@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":471197,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Takekawa, John Y. 0000-0003-0217-5907 john_takekawa@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0217-5907","contributorId":176168,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Takekawa","given":"John","email":"john_takekawa@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"Y.","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":471196,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

First isolated in 2008, the origins of this fungus in North America and its ability to persist in the environment remain undefined. To investigate the correlation between manifestation of WNS and distribution of <i>G. destructans</i> in the U.S., we analyzed sediment samples collected from 55 bat hibernacula (caves and mines) both within and outside the known range of WNS using a newly developed real-time PCR assay. <i>Geomyces destructans</i> was detected in 17 of 21 sites within the known range of WNS at the time the samples were collected; the fungus was not found in 28 sites beyond the known range of the disease at the time that environmental samples were collected. These data indicate that distribution of <i>G. destructans</i> is correlated with disease in hibernating bats and support the hypothesis that the fungus is likely an exotic species in North America. Additionally, we examined whether <i>G. destructans</i> persists in infested bat hibernacula when bats are absent. Sediment samples were collected from 14 WNS-positive hibernacula, and the samples were screened for viable fungus using a culture technique. Viable <i>G. destructans</i> was cultivated from 7 of the 14 sites sampled during late summer when bats were no longer in hibernation, suggesting the fungus can persist in the environment in the absence of bat hosts for long periods of time.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"American Society for Microbiology","publisherLocation":"Washington,

A recent study quantified water use by riparian woodlands along central reaches of the Platte River, Nebraska, finding that water use was mainly regulated below maximum predicted levels. A comparative study was launched through a cooperative partnership between the U.S. Geological Survey, the Central Platte Natural Resources District, the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources, and the Nebraska Environmental Trust to compare water use of a riparian woodland with that of a grazed riparian grassland along the central Platte River. This report describes the results of the 3-year study by the U.S. Geological Survey to measure the evapotranspiration (ET) rates in the two riparian vegetation communities.  Evapotranspiration was measured during 2008–09 and 2011 using the eddy-covariance method at a riparian woodland near Odessa, hereinafter referred to as the “woodland site,” and a riparian grassland pasture near Elm Creek, hereinafter referred to as the “grassland site.” Overall, annual ET totals at the grassland site were 90 percent of the annual ET measured at the woodland site, with averages of 653 millimeters (mm) and 726 mm, respectively. Evapotranspiration rates were similar at the grassland site and the woodland site during the spring and fall seasons, but at the woodland site ET rates were higher than those of the grassland site during the peak-growth summer months of June through August. These seasonal differences and the slightly lower ET rates at the grassland site were likely the result of differing plant communities, disturbance effects related to grazing and flooding, and climatic differences between the sites.  The annual water balance was calculated for each site and indicated that the predominant factors in the water balance at both sites were ET and precipitation. Annual precipitation for the study period ranged from near to above the normal precipitation of 640 mm. Substantial precipitation fell in May and October 2008 that caused flooding along the Platte River in May of this especially wet year. There was a deficit in precipitation compared to ET at both sites in 2009 and 2011, leading to a net groundwater use of greater than 140 mm per year at the woodland site and greater than 55 mm per year at the grassland site. This indicates that the net annual groundwater use or recharge depends predominately upon the relation between ET and precipitation in these riparian areas with shallow soil layers above the groundwater table.  Prior research at the woodland site provided four additional annual water balances dating back to 2002 for comparison with the study period at the woodland site. Perhaps most striking in this comparison was the 25-percent increase in annual ET for 2008–09 and 2011 despite precipitation totals and potential ET rates that were within the range of those measured in 2002–05. As a result, the water balance indicates that groundwater was discharged 2 of the 3 years of the study. This likely was caused by higher groundwater levels and a healthier plant community in 2008–09 and 2011 relative to the drought-affected years of 2002–05. As a result of these changes, the crop coefficients developed for riparian woodlands during the prior research underestimated 2008–09 and 2011 annual ET rates by an average of 35 percent. Though new crop coefficients were developed by this study, the importance of soil-moisture stress and plant community successional dynamics need to be considered when applying these coefficients at other riparian sites or into the future. Nonetheless, their development and the data on which they are based may provide improved understanding of water consumption by riparian grasslands and riparian woodlands along the central Platte River.","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sir20135203","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the Central Platte Natural Resources District, the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources, and the Nebraska Environmental Trust","usgsCitation":"Hall, B.M., and Rus, D.L., 2013, Comparison of water consumption in two riparian vegetation communities along the central Platte River, Nebraska, 2008–09 and 2011: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2013-5203, Report: vi, 26 p.; Downloads Directory, https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20135203.","productDescription":"Report: vi, 26 p.; Downloads Directory","numberOfPages":"38","onlineOnly":"Y","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","ipdsId":"IP-045289","costCenters":[{"id":464,"text":"Nebraska Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":280577,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/usgs_thumb.jpg"},{"id":280572,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2013/5203/"},{"id":280575,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2013/5203/pdf/sir2013-5203.pdf"},{"id":280576,"type":{"id":7,"text":"Companion Files"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2013/5203/downloads/"}],"country":"United States","state":"Nebraska","otherGeospatial":"Central Platte River","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -100.5,40 ], [ -100.5,41.5 ], [ 98,41.5 ], [ 98,40 ], [ -100.5,40 ] ] ] } } ] }","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"53cd521ee4b0b290850f4577","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Hall, Brent M. 0000-0003-3815-5158 bhall@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3815-5158","contributorId":4547,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hall","given":"Brent","email":"bhall@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":464,"text":"Nebraska Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":485985,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Rus, David L. 0000-0003-3538-7826 dlrus@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3538-7826","contributorId":881,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rus","given":"David","email":"dlrus@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":464,"text":"Nebraska Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":485984,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

In addition to different methods used for discrete streamflow measurements, the density and range of discrete measurements used to define the rating curve (stage versus streamflow) have also changed. Several authors have utilized published water surface elevation (stage) and streamflow data to assess changes in the rating curve, which may be attributed to be caused by flood control and/or navigation structures. The purpose of this paper is to provide a thorough review of the available flow measurement data and techniques and to assess how a strict awareness of the limitations of the data may affect previous analyses. It is concluded that the pre-1930s discrete streamflow measurement data are not of sufficient accuracy to be compared with modern streamflow values in establishing long-term trends of river behavior.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Journal of Hydraulic Engineering","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"American Society of Civil Engineers","doi":"10.1061/(ASCE)HY.1943-7900.0000752","usgsCitation":"Wastson, C.C., Holmes, R.R., and Biedenham, D.S., 2013, Mississippi River streamflow measurement techniques at St. Louis, Missouri: Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, v. 139, no. 10, p. 1062-1070, https://doi.org/10.1061/(ASCE)HY.1943-7900.0000752.","productDescription":"9 p.","startPage":"1062","endPage":"1070","numberOfPages":"9","ipdsId":"IP-044176","costCenters":[{"id":502,"text":"Office of Surface Water","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":278492,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":278491,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1061/(ASCE)HY.1943-7900.0000752"}],"country":"United States","state":"Missouri","city":"St. Louis","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -90.320515,38.532322 ], [ -90.320515,38.774346 ], [ -90.166721,38.774346 ], [ -90.166721,38.532322 ], [ -90.320515,38.532322 ] ] ] } } ] }","volume":"139","issue":"10","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"526f8779e4b0493c992ecdaa","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Wastson, Chester C.","contributorId":102376,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wastson","given":"Chester","email":"","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":476188,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Holmes, Robert R.

However, only 6% of >200 studies investigating mercury in bird eggs have actually measured methylmercury concentrations in eggs. Instead, studies typically measure total mercury in eggs (both organic and inorganic forms of mercury), with the explicit assumption that total mercury concentrations in eggs are a reliable proxy for methylmercury concentrations in eggs. This assumption is rarely tested, but has important implications for assessing risk of mercury to birds. We conducted a detailed assessment of this assumption by (1) collecting original data to examine the relationship between total and methylmercury in eggs of two species, and (2) reviewing the published literature on mercury concentrations in bird eggs to examine whether the percentage of total mercury in the methylmercury form differed among species. Within American avocets (<i>Recurvirostra americana</i>) and Forster’s terns (<i>Sterna forsteri</i>), methylmercury concentrations were highly correlated (R<sup>2</sup> = 0.99) with total mercury concentrations in individual eggs (range: 0.03–7.33 μg/g fww), and the regression slope (log scale) was not different from one (m = 0.992). The mean percentage of total mercury in the methylmercury form in eggs was 97% for American avocets (n = 30 eggs), 96% for Forster’s terns (n = 30 eggs), and 96% among all 22 species of birds (n = 30 estimates of species means). The percentage of total mercury in the methylmercury form ranged from 63% to 116% among individual eggs and 82% to 111% among species means, but this variation was not related to total mercury concentrations in eggs, foraging guild, nor to a species life history strategy as characterized along the precocial to altricial spectrum. Our results support the use of total mercury concentrations to estimate methylmercury concentrations in bird eggs.","language":"English","publisher":"American Chemical Society","doi":"10.1021/es304385y","usgsCitation":"Ackerman, J., Herzog, M., and Schwarzbach, S.E., 2013, Methylmercury is the predominant form of mercury in bird eggs: a synthesis: Environmental Science & Technology, v. 47, no. 4, p. 2052-2060, https://doi.org/10.1021/es304385y.","productDescription":"9 p.","startPage":"2052","endPage":"2060","numberOfPages":"9","ipdsId":"IP-043304","costCenters":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":294255,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":294225,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1021/es304385y"}],"volume":"47","issue":"4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2013-01-31","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"541d459fe4b0f68901ec30ca","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Ackerman, Joshua T. 0000-0002-3074-8322 jackerman@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3074-8322","contributorId":147078,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ackerman","given":"Joshua T.","email":"jackerman@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":501921,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Herzog, Mark P. mherzog@usgs.gov","contributorId":3965,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Herzog","given":"Mark P.","email":"mherzog@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":501920,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Schwarzbach, Steven E. steven_schwarzbach@usgs.gov","contributorId":1025,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Schwarzbach","given":"Steven","email":"steven_schwarzbach@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":501919,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

The affected area is mountainous, featuring densely-vegetated, steep slopes through which narrowly confined rivers and streams flow. Numerous types of landslides occurred in the area, including rock avalanches, rock falls, translational and rotational slides, lateral spreads and debris flows. Some landslides mobilized hundreds of million cubic meters of material, often resulting in the damming of rivers and streams, impacting river ecosystems and morphology. Through an extensive search of both Chinese- and English-language publications we provide a summary of pertinent research on environmental effects, emphasizing key findings. Environmental effects caused by landslides include the alteration of agriculture, changes to natural ecosystems, changes in river morphology due to landslide dams and other effects such as sedimentation and flooding. Damage by landslides to the giant panda reserve infrastructure and habitat, was severe, threatening the survival of one of the world’s rarest species. The Panda reserves are of national significance to China, and to the vital tourism economy of the region. One of the major impacts to both the natural and built environment is the complete relocation of some human populations and infrastructure to new areas, resulting in the abandonment of towns and other areas that were damaged by the earthquake and landslides. The landslide effects have affected the biodiversity of the affected area, and it has been hypothesized that strict forest preservation measures taken in the years preceding the earthquake resulted in a reduction of the environmental damage to the area.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Landslide Science and Practice","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/978-3-642-31427-8_23","usgsCitation":"Highland, L.M., and Sun, P., 2013, Environmental impact of the landslides caused by the 12 May 2008, Wenchuan, China earthquake, chap. <i>of</i> Landslide Science and Practice, p. 179-184, https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-31427-8_23.","productDescription":"6 p.","startPage":"179","endPage":"184","ipdsId":"IP-030745","costCenters":[{"id":300,"text":"Geologic Hazards Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":281066,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"China","state":"Wenchuan","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ 102.8627,30.7646 ], [ 102.8627,31.7162 ], [ 103.7466,31.7162 ], [ 103.7466,30.7646 ], [ 102.8627,30.7646 ] ] ] } } ] }","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2013-02-06","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"53cd57a6e4b0b290850f7987","contributors":{"editors":[{"text":"Margottini, Claudio","contributorId":113700,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Margottini","given":"Claudio","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":508261,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Canuti, Paolo","contributorId":114064,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Canuti","given":"Paolo","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":508262,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Sassa, Kyoji","contributorId":113023,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Sassa","given":"Kyoji","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":508260,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":3}],"authors":[{"text":"Highland, Lynn M. highland@usgs.gov","contributorId":1292,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Highland","given":"Lynn","email":"highland@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":true,"id":351437,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Sun, Ping","contributorId":94215,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Sun","given":"Ping","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":351438,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

This prototype tool guides users through a stakeholder-based vulnerability assessment that breaks the process into four easy-to-implement steps. Data sources are integrated in the online environment so that perceived risks—defined and prioritized qualitatively by users—can be compared and discussed against the impacts that past events have had on the community. The support system is limited in scope, and the locations of the case studies do not provide a sufficiently broad range of sample cases.

To test the response of foraminifera, the accuracy of the transfer function method, and the presence of a pre-seismic signal, we simulated a great earthquake near Coos Bay, Oregon, by transplanting a bed of modern high salt-marsh sediment into the tidal flat, an elevation change that mimics a coseismic subsidence of 0.64 m. The transplanted bed was quickly buried by mud; after 12 mo and 5 yr, we sampled it for foraminifera. Reconstruction of the simulated coseismic subsidence using our transfer function was 0.61 m, nearly identical to the actual elevation change. Our transplant experiment, and additional analyses spanning the A.D. 1700 earthquake contact at the nearby Coquille River 15 km to the south, show that sediment mixing may explain assemblage changes previously interpreted as evidence of pre-seismic land-level change in Cascadia and elsewhere.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Geological Survey of America","doi":"10.1130/G34544.1","usgsCitation":"Engelhart, S.E., Horton, B.P., Nelson, A.R., Hawkes, A.D., Witter, R., Wang, K., Wang, P., and Vane, C.H., 2013, Testing the use of microfossils to reconstruct great earthquakes at Cascadia: Geology, v. 41, no. 10, p. 1067-1070, https://doi.org/10.1130/G34544.1.","productDescription":"4 p.","startPage":"1067","endPage":"1070","ipdsId":"IP-046321","costCenters":[{"id":119,"text":"Alaska Science Center Geology Minerals","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473983,"rank":0,"type":{"id":41,"text":"Open Access External Repository Page"},"url":"https://durham-repository.worktribe.com/output/1285333","text":"External Repository"},{"id":356121,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"41","issue":"10","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":12,"text":"Tacoma PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5b6fd37fe4b0f5d57878edba","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Engelhart, S.

We detected statistically significant change (99% confidence interval), defined as contiguous areas (&gt;10&nbsp;m</span><sup>2</sup><span>) that had changed in height by at least 0.55&nbsp;m, in 0.3% of the study region. Erosional features indicative of ice-rich permafrost degradation were associated with ice-bonded coastal, river, and lake bluffs, frost mounds, ice wedges, and thermo-erosional gullies. These features accounted for about half of the area where vertical change was detected. Inferred thermo-denudation and thermo-abrasion of coastal and river bluffs likely accounted for the dominant permafrost-related degradational processes with respect to area (42%) and volume (51%). More than 300 thermokarst pits significantly subsided during the study period, likely as a result of storm surge flooding of low-lying tundra (&lt;1.4&nbsp;m asl) as well as the lasting impact of warm summers in the late-1980s and mid-1990s. Our results indicate that repeat airborne LiDAR can be used to detect landscape change in arctic coastal lowland regions at large spatial scales over sub-decadal time periods.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"IOP Publishing","doi":"10.1088/1748-9326/8/4/045025","usgsCitation":"Jones, B.M., Stoker, J.M., Gibbs, A.E., Grosse, G., Romanovsky, V.E., Douglas, T.A., Kinsman, N.E., and Richmond, B.M., 2013, Quantifying landscape change in an arctic coastal lowland using repeat airborne LiDAR: Environmental Research Letters, v. 8, no. 4, Article 045025; 10 p., https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/8/4/045025.","productDescription":"Article 045025; 10 p.","onlineOnly":"Y","ipdsId":"IP-051098","costCenters":[{"id":118,"text":"Alaska Science Center Geography","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":222,"text":"Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":520,"text":"Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473984,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/8/4/045025","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":281597,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Alaska","otherGeospatial":"Beaufort Sea","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -148.5,70.0 ], [ -148.5,70.5 ], [ -146.5,70.5 ], [ -146.5,70.0 ], [ -148.5,70.0 ] ] ] } } ] }","volume":"8","issue":"4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2013-11-21","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"53cd6ec7e4b0b29085105fdb","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Jones, Benjamin M. 0000-0002-1517-4711 bjones@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1517-4711","contributorId":2286,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Jones","given":"Benjamin","email":"bjones@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":118,"text":"Alaska Science Center Geography","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":114,"text":"Alaska Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":489384,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Stoker, Jason M. 0000-0003-2455-0931 jstoker@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2455-0931","contributorId":3021,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Stoker","given":"Jason","email":"jstoker@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":223,"text":"Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center (Geography)","active":false,"usgs":true},{"id":423,"text":"National Geospatial Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":489389,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Gibbs, Ann E. 0000-0002-0883-3774 agibbs@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0883-3774","contributorId":2644,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Gibbs","given":"Ann","email":"agibbs@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":520,"text":"Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":489386,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Grosse, Guido","contributorId":101475,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Grosse","given":"Guido","affiliations":[{"id":34291,"text":"University of Potsdam, Germany","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":489391,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Romanovsky, Vladimir E.","contributorId":40113,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Romanovsky","given":"Vladimir","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":489387,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Douglas, Thomas A. 0000-0003-1314-1905","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1314-1905","contributorId":64553,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Douglas","given":"Thomas","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":33087,"text":"Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":true,"id":489388,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Kinsman, Nichole E.M.","contributorId":100285,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kinsman","given":"Nichole","email":"","middleInitial":"E.M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":489390,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Richmond, Bruce M. 0000-0002-0056-5832 brichmond@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0056-5832","contributorId":2459,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Richmond","given":"Bruce","email":"brichmond@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":520,"text":"Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":489385,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8}]}}

The purpose\nof our investigation was to reconnoiter outcrops in the basin and along its periphery to gather new information\ntowards understanding the basin formation history and stratigraphy. This reconnaissance data represents the first\nstep toward better understanding the basin’s hydrocarbon potential, a key component of DGGS’s multi-year In-\nState Gas Program. This program is focused on collecting baseline geologic information from potential frontier\ngas basins to encourage new exploration to help, in part, reduce the high cost of energy in rural Alaska. Our work\nrepresents the first season of this three-year project. Preliminary results from year two, a companion project within\nthe Nenana and Tanana basins in interior Alaska, are described by Wartes and others (2013). DGGS plans to return\nto the Susitna basin for follow-up fieldwork during the third and final year of the program.</p>\n<br>\n<p>The motivation for developing a better understanding of the Susitna basin stems from the recognition that\nthe Susitna basin shares similar age coal-bearing strata with the adjacent, petroliferous Cook Inlet forearc basin\n(Barnes, 1966; Reed and Nelson, 1980) and with exhumed strata in the Matanuska Valley forearc basin (Trop and\nothers, 2003) (figs. 1 and 2). Cook Inlet basin has eight producing oil fields, more than 25 producing gas fields,\nand likely contains many additional undiscovered oil and gas accumulations (LePain and others, in press). Most\nof the Cook Inlet gas is of microbial origin and apparently was sourced from abundant coalbeds of primarily\nMiocene age in the Tyonek, Beluga, and Sterling Formations (Claypool and others, 1980; Magoon, 1994). If the\nbiogenic gas model for Cook Inlet is applicable to the Susitna basin, then the latter may be a viable source for\nAlaska Railbelt and rural energy needs.</p>\n<br>\n<p>This brief overview report summarizes the reconnaissance field data collected in the Susitna basin during the\nfirst summer of the program. As the data are developed, this report will be followed by interpretive technical reports\naddressing the stratigraphy, reservoir quality, coal quality and gas potential, hydrocarbon seal integrity, subsurface\nstructure, and uplift history of the basin and sub-basin margins.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys","publisherLocation":"Fairbanks, AK","doi":"10.14509/25015","usgsCitation":"Gillis, R., Stanley, R.G., LePain, D., Mauel, D.J., Herriott, T., Helmold, K.P., Peterson, C.S., Wartes, M.A., and Shellenbaum, D.P., 2013, Status of a reconnaissance field study of the Susitna basin, 2011, 8 p., https://doi.org/10.14509/25015.","productDescription":"8 p.","numberOfPages":"12","ipdsId":"IP-042889","costCenters":[{"id":312,"text":"Geology, Minerals, Energy, and Geophysics Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473985,"rank":2,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.14509/25015","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":287641,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Alaska","otherGeospatial":"Susitna Basin","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -152.0762,61.2797 ], [ -152.0762,62.9966 ], [ -147.3878,62.9966 ], [ -147.3878,61.2797 ], [ -152.0762,61.2797 ] ] ] } } ] }","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5385b401e4b09e18fc023aaa","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Gillis, Robert J.","contributorId":69438,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Gillis","given":"Robert J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":484184,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Stanley, Richard G. 0000-0001-6192-8783 rstanley@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6192-8783","contributorId":1832,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Stanley","given":"Richard","email":"rstanley@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[{"id":312,"text":"Geology, Minerals, Energy, and Geophysics Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":484179,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"LePain, David L.","contributorId":105209,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"LePain","given":"David L.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":484187,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Mauel, David J.","contributorId":99049,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Mauel","given":"David","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":484186,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Herriott, Trystan M.","contributorId":68845,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Herriott","given":"Trystan M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":484183,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Helmold, Kenneth P.","contributorId":69456,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Helmold","given":"Kenneth","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":484185,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Peterson, C.
