Because of severe hunting pressure during the 17th through 19th centuries, only small populations of the once widespread aquatic mammal remain. Fortunately, protections in Belize reduced hunting in the 1930s and allowed the country's manatee population to become the largest breeding population in the Wider Caribbean. However, increasing and emerging anthropogenic threats such as coastal development, pollution, watercraft collision and net entanglement represent challenges to this ecologically important population. To inform conservation and management decisions, a comprehensive molecular investigation of the genetic diversity, relatedness and population structure of the Belize manatee population was conducted using mitochondrial and microsatellite DNA. Compared with other mammal populations, a low degree of genetic diversity was detected (<i>H</i><sub>E</sub>=0.455; <i>N</i><sub>A</sub>=3.4), corresponding to the small population size and long-term exploitation. Manatees from the Belize City Cayes and Southern Lagoon system were genetically different, with microsatellite and mitochondrial <i>F</i><sub>ST</sub> values of 0.029 and 0.078, respectively (<i>P</i>&#8804;0.05). This, along with the distinct habitats and threats, indicates that separate protection of these two groups would best preserve the region's diversity. The Belize population and Florida subspecies appear to be unrelated with microsatellite and mitochondrial <i>F</i><sub>ST</sub> values of 0.141 and 0.63, respectively (<i>P</i>&#8804;0.001), supporting the subspecies designations and suggesting low vagility throughout the northern Caribbean habitat. Further monitoring and protection may allow an increase in the Belize manatee genetic diversity and population size. A large and expanding Belize population could potentially assist in the recovery of other threatened or functionally extinct Central American Antillean manatee populations.","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/j.1469-1795.2010.00383.x","usgsCitation":"Hunter, M., Auil-Gomez, N., Tucker, K., Bonde, R., Powell, J., and McGuire, P., 2010, Low genetic variation and evidence of limited dispersal in the regionally important Belize manatee: Animal Conservation, v. 13, no. 6, p. 592-602, https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1469-1795.2010.00383.x.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"592","endPage":"602","costCenters":[{"id":566,"text":"Southeast Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":382026,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Belize","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -88.4619140625,\n              18.458768120015126\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.09912109375,\n              17.97873309555617\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.2529296875,\n              15.876809064146757\n            ],\n            [\n              -88.87939453125,\n              15.982453522973508\n            ],\n            [\n              -88.1982421875,\n              16.88865978738161\n            ],\n            [\n              -88.08837890625,\n              18.312810846425442\n            ],\n            [\n              -88.4619140625,\n              18.458768120015126\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"13","issue":"6","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2010-12-06","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a74e4b07f02db644939","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Hunter, M.E.","contributorId":87672,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hunter","given":"M.E.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":349091,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Auil-Gomez, N.

Similar numbers of animals were captured from a reference site in southern Cape Krusenstern National Monument for comparison. Histopathological examination of selected organs, and analysis of cadmium, lead, and zinc concentrations in liver and blood samples were performed. Voles and small birds captured from near the haul road had about 20 times greater blood and liver lead concentrations and about three times greater cadmium concentrations when compared to those from the reference site, but there were no differences in zinc tissue concentrations. One vole had moderate metastatic mineralization of kidney tissue, otherwise we observed no abnormalities in internal organs or DNA damage in the blood of any of the animals. The affected vole also had the greatest liver and blood Cd concentration, indicating that the lesion might have been caused by Cd exposure. Blood and liver lead concentrations in animals captured near the haul road were below concentrations that have been associated with adverse biological effects in other studies; however, subtle effects resulting from lead exposure, such as the suppression of the activity of certain enzymes, cannot be ruled out for some individual animals. Results from our 2006 reconnaissance-level study indicate that overall, voles and small birds obtained from near the DMTS road in Cape Krusenstern National Monument were not adversely affected by metals exposure; however, because of the small sample size and other uncertainties, continued monitoring of lead and cadmium in terrestrial habitats near the DMTS road is advised.","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","publisherLocation":"Amsterdam, Netherlands","doi":"10.1007/s10661-009-1216-y","usgsCitation":"Brumbaugh, W.G., Mora, M.A., May, T.W., and Phalen, D.N., 2010, Metal exposure and effects in voles and small birds near a mining haul road in Cape Krusenstern National Monument, Alaska: Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, v. 170, no. 1, p. 73-86, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10661-009-1216-y.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"73","endPage":"86","costCenters":[{"id":192,"text":"Columbia Environmental Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":34983,"text":"Contaminant Biology Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":203886,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Alaska","otherGeospatial":"Cape Krusenstern National Monument","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -164.5,67 ], [ -164.5,68.08333333333333 ], [ -162.5,68.08333333333333 ], [ -162.5,67 ], [ -164.5,67 ] ] ] } } ] }","volume":"170","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2009-10-24","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4acce4b07f02db67e805","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Brumbaugh, William G. 0000-0003-0081-375X bbrumbaugh@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0081-375X","contributorId":493,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Brumbaugh","given":"William","email":"bbrumbaugh@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[{"id":192,"text":"Columbia Environmental Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":346921,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Mora, Miguel A. 0000-0002-8393-0216","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8393-0216","contributorId":46643,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Mora","given":"Miguel","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":346924,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"May, Thomas W. tmay@usgs.gov","contributorId":2598,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"May","given":"Thomas","email":"tmay@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":192,"text":"Columbia Environmental Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":346922,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Phalen, David N.","contributorId":30740,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Phalen","given":"David","email":"","middleInitial":"N.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":346923,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

Here we measured the propensity of leachates from four crops and four aquatic macrophytes to form trihalomethanes (THMs)&mdash;a regulated class of DBPs&mdash;before and after 21 d of microbial degradation. We also measured lignin phenol content and specific UV absorbance (SUVA<sub>254</sub>) to test the assumption that aromatic compounds from vascular plants are resistant to microbial degradation and readily form DBPs. Leaching solubilized 9 to 26% of total plant carbon, which formed 1.93 to 6.72 mmol THM mol C<sup>-1</sup> However, leachate DOC concentrations decreased by 85 to 92% over the 21-d incubation, with a concomitant decrease of 67 to 92% in total THM formation potential. Carbon-normalized THM yields in the residual DOC pool increased by 2.5 times on average, consistent with the preferential uptake of nonprecursor material. Lignin phenol concentrations decreased by 64 to 96% over 21 d, but a lack of correlation between lignin content and THM yields or SUVA<sub>254</sub> suggested that lignin-derived compounds are not the source of increased THM precursor yields in the residual DOC pool. Our results indicate that microbial carbon utilization alters THM precursors in ecosystems with direct plant leaching, but more work is needed to identify the specific dissolved organic matter components with a greater propensity to form DBPs and affect watershed management, drinking water quality, and human health.","language":"English","publisher":"American Society of Agronomy","publisherLocation":"Madison, WI","doi":"10.2134/jeq2009.0487","usgsCitation":"Pellerin, B., Hernes, P.J., Saraceno, J., Spencer, R., and Bergamaschi, B., 2010, Microbial degradation of plant leachate alters lignin phenols and trihalomethane precursors: Journal of Environmental Quality, v. 39, no. 3, p. 946-954, https://doi.org/10.2134/jeq2009.0487.","productDescription":"9 p.","startPage":"946","endPage":"954","costCenters":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":204135,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"39","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a57e4b07f02db62df4c","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Pellerin, Brian A.","contributorId":58385,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Pellerin","given":"Brian A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348827,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Hernes, Peter J.","contributorId":85311,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hernes","given":"Peter","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348831,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Saraceno, John Franco 0000-0003-0064-1820","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0064-1820","contributorId":71686,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Saraceno","given":"John Franco","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348828,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Spencer, Robert G.M.","contributorId":76061,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Spencer","given":"Robert G.M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348830,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Bergamaschi, Brian A. 0000-0002-9610-5581","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9610-5581","contributorId":73241,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bergamaschi","given":"Brian A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348829,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

In contrast, we use simulations from five numerical models to quantify the conditions under which ecogeomorphic feedbacks allow coastal wetlands to adapt to projected changes in sea level. In contrast to previous sea-level assessments, we find that non-linear feedbacks among inundation, plant growth, organic matter accretion, and sediment deposition, allow marshes to survive conservative projections of sea-level rise where suspended sediment concentrations are greater than ~20 mg/L. Under scenarios of more rapid sea-level rise (e.g., those that include ice sheet melting), marshes will likely submerge near the end of the 21st century. Our results emphasize that in areas of rapid geomorphic change, predicting the response of ecosystems to climate change requires consideration of the ability of biological processes to modify their physical environment.","language":"English","publisher":"American Geophysical Union","doi":"10.1029/2010GL045489","usgsCitation":"Kirwan, M., Guntenspergen, G.R., D’Alpaos, A., Morris, J.T., Mudd, S.M., and Temmerman, S., 2010, Limits on the adaptability of coastal marshes to rising sea level: Geophysical Research Letters, v. 37, no. 23, p. 1-5, https://doi.org/10.1029/2010GL045489.","productDescription":"5 p.","startPage":"1","endPage":"5","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":475572,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1029/2010gl045489","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":382220,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","volume":"37","issue":"23","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4b16e4b07f02db6a533d","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Kirwan, Matthew L. 0000-0002-0658-3038","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0658-3038","contributorId":84060,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kirwan","given":"Matthew L.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347773,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Guntenspergen, Glenn R. 0000-0002-8593-0244 glenn_guntenspergen@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8593-0244","contributorId":2885,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Guntenspergen","given":"Glenn","email":"glenn_guntenspergen@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":347769,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"D’Alpaos, Andrea","contributorId":34247,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"D’Alpaos","given":"Andrea","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347771,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Morris, James T.","contributorId":29118,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Morris","given":"James","email":"","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347770,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Mudd, Simon M.","contributorId":107840,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Mudd","given":"Simon","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347774,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Temmerman, Stijn","contributorId":71682,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Temmerman","given":"Stijn","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347772,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

Edgecumbe Volcanic Field (MEVF), located on Kruzof Island near Sitka Sound in southeast Alaska, experienced a large multiple-stage eruption during the last glacial maximum (LGM)-Holocene transition that generated a regionally extensive series of compositionally similar rhyolite tephra horizons and a single well-dated dacite (MEd) tephra. Marine sediment cores collected from adjacent basins to the MEVF contain both tephra-fall and pyroclastic flow deposits that consist primarily of rhyolitic tephra and a minor dacitic tephra unit. The recovered dacite tephra correlates with the MEd tephra, whereas many of the rhyolitic tephras correlate with published MEVF rhyolites. Correlations were based on age constraints and major oxide compositions of glass shards. In addition to LGM-Holocene macroscopic tephra units, four marine cryptotephras were also identified. Three of these units appear to be derived from mid-Holocene MEVF activity, while the youngest cryptotephra corresponds well with the White River Ash eruption at not, vert, similar 1147 cal yr BP. Furthermore, the sedimentology of the Sitka Sound marine core EW0408-40JC and high-resolution SWATH bathymetry both suggest that extensive pyroclastic flow deposits associated with the activity that generated the MEd tephra underlie Sitka Sound, and that any future MEVF activity may pose significant risk to local population centers.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Quaternary Research","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","publisherLocation":"Amsterdam, Netherlands","doi":"10.1016/j.yqres.2009.10.007","usgsCitation":"Addison, J.A., Beget, J.E., Ager, T.A., and Finney, B., 2010, Marine tephrochronology of the Mt.

Decisions on where and how to restore bottomland forests are complex and dependent upon landowner objectives, but for conservation of silvicolous (forest-dwelling) birds, ecologists have espoused restoration through planting a diverse mix of densely spaced seedlings that includes fast-growing species. Application of this planting strategy on agricultural tracts that are adjacent to extant forest or within landscapes that are predominately forested has been advocated to increase forest area and enhance forested landscapes, thereby benefiting area-sensitive, silvicolous birds. We measured support for these hypothesized benefits through assessments of densities of breeding birds and reproductive success of 9 species on 36 bottomland forest restoration sites. Densities of thamnic (shrub–scrub dwelling) and silvicolous birds, such as yellow-breasted chat (</span><span class=\"genus-species\">Icteria virens</span><span>), indigo bunting (</span><span class=\"genus-species\">Passerina cyanea</span><span>), and white-eyed vireo (</span><span class=\"genus-species\">Vireo griseus</span><span>) were positively associated with 1) taller trees, 2) greater stem densities, and 3) a greater proportion of forest within the landscape, whereas densities of birds associated with grasslands, such as dickcissel (</span><span class=\"genus-species\">Spiza americana</span><span>) and red-winged blackbird (</span><span class=\"genus-species\">Agelaius phoeniceus</span><span>), were negatively associated with these variables. Vegetation structure, habitat edge, and temporal effects had greater influence on nest success than did landscape effects. Taller trees, increased density of woody stems, greater vegetation density, and more forest within the landscape were often associated with greater nest success. Nest success of grassland birds was positively related to distance from forest edge but, for thamnic birds, success was greater near edges. Moreover, nest success and estimated fecundity of thamnic species suggested their populations are self-sustaining on forest restoration sites, whereas these sites are likely population sinks for grassland and open-woodland species. We recommend restoration strategies that promote rapid development of dense forest stands within largely forested landscapes to recruit breeding populations of thamnic and silvicolous birds that have reproductive success sufficient to sustain their populations.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.2193/2008-563","usgsCitation":"Twedt, D.J., Somershoe, S.G., Hazler, K.R., and Cooper, R.J., 2010, Landscape and vegetation effects on avian reproduction on bottomland forest restorations: Journal of Wildlife Management, v. 74, no. 3, p. 423-436, https://doi.org/10.2193/2008-563.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"423","endPage":"436","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":382883,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","otherGeospatial":"Mississippi Alluvial Valley","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -88.857421875,\n              37.020098201368114\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.84619140625,\n              37.35269280367274\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.72509765625,\n              36.40359962073253\n            ],\n            [\n              -92.021484375,\n              33.797408767572485\n            ],\n            [\n              -92.43896484375,\n              30.80791068136646\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.791015625,\n              29.6880527498568\n            ],\n            [\n              -91.03271484375,\n              31.12819929911196\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.63720703125,\n              33.44977658311846\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.6044921875,\n              35.47856499535729\n            ],\n            [\n              -88.857421875,\n              37.020098201368114\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"74","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2010-12-13","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4b20e4b07f02db6abb8f","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Twedt, Daniel J. 0000-0003-1223-5045 dtwedt@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1223-5045","contributorId":398,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Twedt","given":"Daniel","email":"dtwedt@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":347367,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Somershoe, Scott G.","contributorId":58756,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Somershoe","given":"Scott","email":"","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347368,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Hazler, Kirsten R.","contributorId":94425,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hazler","given":"Kirsten","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347369,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Cooper, Robert J.","contributorId":99245,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Cooper","given":"Robert","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":6949,"text":"University of California, Santa Cruz","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":347370,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

Understanding landscape connectivity is important to determine the ecological processes that influence those movements, which lead to evolutionary change due to gene flow. Here, we used landscape genetics and statistical models to evaluate hypotheses that could explain isolation among locations of the threatened Mojave desert tortoise (</span><i>Gopherus agassizii</i><span>). Within a causal modeling framework, we investigated three factors that can influence landscape connectivity: geographic distance, barriers to dispersal, and landscape friction. A statistical model of habitat suitability for the Mojave desert tortoise, based on topography, vegetation, and climate variables, was used as a proxy for landscape friction and barriers to dispersal. We quantified landscape friction with least-cost distances and with resistance distances among sampling locations. A set of diagnostic partial Mantel tests statistically separated the hypotheses of potential causes of genetic isolation. The best-supported model varied depending upon how landscape friction was quantified. Patterns of genetic structure were related to a combination of geographic distance and barriers as defined by least-cost distances, suggesting that mountain ranges and extremely low-elevation valleys influence connectivity at the regional scale beyond the tortoises’ ability to disperse. However, geographic distance was the only influence detected using resistance distances, which we attributed to fundamental differences between the two ways of quantifying friction. Landscape friction, as we measured it, did not influence the observed patterns of genetic distances using either quantification. Barriers and distance may be more valuable predictors of observed population structure for species like the desert tortoise, which has high dispersal capability and a long generation time.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s10980-010-9550-6","usgsCitation":"Hagerty, B.E., Nussear, K.E., Esque, T., and Tracy, C.R., 2010, Making molehills out of mountains: Landscape genetics of the Mojave desert tortoise: Landscape Ecology, v. 26, no. 2, p. 267-280, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10980-010-9550-6.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"267","endPage":"280","costCenters":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":382886,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona","otherGeospatial":"Mojave Desert","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -117.94921874999999,\n              40.81380923056958\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.11328124999999,\n              39.16414104768742\n            ],\n            [\n              -116.89453125,\n              35.06597313798418\n            ],\n            [\n              -111.4892578125,\n              34.84987503195418\n            ],\n            [\n              -110.830078125,\n              38.75408327579141\n            ],\n            [\n              -113.203125,\n              40.84706035607122\n            ],\n            [\n              -117.94921874999999,\n              40.81380923056958\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"26","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2010-11-13","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a81e4b07f02db649f56","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Hagerty, Bridgette E.","contributorId":98868,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hagerty","given":"Bridgette","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":350019,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Nussear, Kenneth E. knussear@usgs.gov","contributorId":2695,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Nussear","given":"Kenneth","email":"knussear@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":350016,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Esque, Todd C. tesque@usgs.gov","contributorId":3221,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Esque","given":"Todd C.","email":"tesque@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":350017,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Tracy, C.

We conducted a meta-analysis of 7,929 photographs from 217 localities in 11 camera-trap studies across coastal southern California to describe habitat use and determine the effects of urban proximity (distance to urban edge) and intensity (percentage of area urbanized) on carnivore occurrence and species richness in natural habitats close to the urban boundary. Coyotes (Canis latrans) and bobcats (Lynx rufus) were distributed widely across the region. Domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris), striped skunks (Mephitis mephitis), raccoons (Procyon lotor), gray foxes (Urocyon cinereoargenteus), mountain lions (Puma concolor), and Virginia opossums (Didelphis virginiana) were detected less frequently, and long-tailed weasels (Mustela frenata), American badgers (Taxidea taxus), western spotted skunks (Spilogale gracilis), and domestic cats (Felis catus) were detected rarely. Habitat use generally reflected availability for most species. Coyote and raccoon occurrence increased with both proximity to and intensity of urbanization, whereas bobcat, gray fox, and mountain lion occurrence decreased with urban proximity and intensity. Domestic dogs and Virginia opossums exhibited positive and weak negative relationships, respectively, with urban intensity but were unaffected by urban proximity. Striped skunk occurrence increased with urban proximity but decreased with urban intensity. Native species richness was negatively associated with urban intensity but not urban proximity, probably because of the stronger negative response of individual species to urban intensity.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Journal of Mammalogy","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"American Society of Mammalogists","usgsCitation":"Ordenana, M.A., Crooks, K.R., Boydston, E.E., Fisher, R.N., Lyren, L.M., Siudyla, S., Haas, C.D., Harris, S., Hathaway, S.A., Turschak, G.M., Miles, A.K., and Van Vuren, D., 2010, Effects of urbanization on carnivore species distribution and richness: Journal of Mammalogy, v. 91, no. 6, p. 1322-1331.","productDescription":"10 p.","startPage":"1322","endPage":"1331","numberOfPages":"10","costCenters":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":203972,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":91774,"rank":100,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://www.bioone.org/doi/abs/10.1644/09-MAMM-A-312.1","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}}],"country":"United States","state":"California","volume":"91","issue":"6","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a26e4b07f02db60fe68","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Ordenana, Miguel A.","contributorId":67366,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ordenana","given":"Miguel","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348365,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Crooks, Kevin R.","contributorId":51137,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Crooks","given":"Kevin","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":6621,"text":"Colorado State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":348363,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Boydston, Erin E. 0000-0002-8452-835X eboydston@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8452-835X","contributorId":1705,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Boydston","given":"Erin","email":"eboydston@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":348358,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Fisher, Robert N. 0000-0002-2956-3240 rfisher@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2956-3240","contributorId":1529,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Fisher","given":"Robert","email":"rfisher@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"N.","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":348357,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Lyren, Lisa M. llyren@usgs.gov","contributorId":2398,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lyren","given":"Lisa","email":"llyren@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":348359,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Siudyla, Shalene","contributorId":28867,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Siudyla","given":"Shalene","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348362,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Haas, Christopher D.","contributorId":54076,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Haas","given":"Christopher","email":"","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348364,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Harris, Sierra","contributorId":93773,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Harris","given":"Sierra","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348367,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8},{"text":"Hathaway, Stacie A. 0000-0002-4167-8059 sahathaway@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4167-8059","contributorId":3420,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hathaway","given":"Stacie","email":"sahathaway@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":348360,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":9},{"text":"Turschak, Greta M.","contributorId":24641,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Turschak","given":"Greta","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348361,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":10},{"text":"Miles, A.

The certain craters have morphologies similar to impact craters on rocky planets, as well as two with radar bright, jagged rims. The less certain craters often appear to be eroded versions of the certain ones. Titan's craters are modified by a variety of processes including fluvial erosion, mass wasting, burial by dunes and submergence in seas, but there is no compelling evidence of isostatic adjustments as on other icy moons, nor draping by thick atmospheric deposits. The paucity of craters implies that Titan's surface is quite young, but the modeled age depends on which published crater production rate is assumed. Using the model of Artemieva and Lunine (2005) suggests that craters with diameters smaller than about 35 km are younger than 200 million years old, and larger craters are older. Craters are not distributed uniformly; Xanadu has a crater density 2-9 times greater than the rest of Titan, and the density on equatorial dune areas is much lower than average. There is a small excess of craters on the leading hemisphere, and craters are deficient in the north polar region compared to the rest of the world. The youthful age of Titan overall, and the various erosional states of its likely impact craters, demonstrate that dynamic processes have destroyed most of the early history of the moon, and that multiple processes continue to strongly modify its surface. The existence of 24 possible impact craters with diameters less than 20 km appears consistent with the Ivanov, Basilevsky and Neukum (1997) model of the effectiveness of Titan's atmosphere in destroying most but not all small projectiles.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Icarus","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","publisherLocation":"Amsterdam, Netherlands","usgsCitation":"Wood, C.A., Lorenz, R., Kirk, R., Lopes, R., Mitchell, K., Stofan, E., and Cassini RADAR Team, 2010, Impact craters on Titan: Icarus, p. 334-344.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"334","endPage":"344","costCenters":[{"id":131,"text":"Astrogeology Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":204121,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":91757,"rank":100,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0019103509003753","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e49ffe4b07f02db5f78ec","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Wood, Charles A.","contributorId":27599,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wood","given":"Charles","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348173,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Lorenz, Ralph","contributorId":53933,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lorenz","given":"Ralph","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348176,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Kirk, Randy","contributorId":107841,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kirk","given":"Randy","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348178,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Lopes, Rosaly","contributorId":50280,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lopes","given":"Rosaly","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348174,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Mitchell, Karl","contributorId":53515,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Mitchell","given":"Karl","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348175,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Stofan, Ellen","contributorId":101373,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Stofan","given":"Ellen","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348177,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Cassini RADAR Team","contributorId":127942,"corporation":true,"usgs":false,"organization":"Cassini RADAR Team","id":535120,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}

However, existing studies present conflicting evidence concerning the roles of these factors, in part due to the short temporal extent of most data sets and inability to test indirect effects of environmental variables modulated by biotic interactions. Using structural equation modeling to analyze 65 years of perennial vegetation change in the Sonoran Desert, we found that precipitation had a stronger positive effect on recruitment beneath existing canopies than in open microsites due to reduced evaporation rates. Variation in perennial canopy cover had additional facilitative effects on juvenile recruitment, which was indirectly driven by effects of density and precipitation on cover. Mortality was strongly influenced by competition as indicated by negative density‐dependence, whereas precipitation had no effect. The combined direct, indirect, and interactive facilitative effects of precipitation and cover on recruitment were substantial, as was the effect of competition on mortality, providing strong evidence for dual control of community dynamics by climate and biotic interactions. Through an empirically derived simulation model, we also found that the positive feedback of density on cover produces unique temporal abundance patterns, buffering changes in abundance from high frequency variation in precipitation, amplifying effects of low frequency variation, and decoupling community abundance from precipitation patterns at high abundance. Such dynamics should be generally applicable to low‐productivity systems in which facilitation is important and can only be understood within the context of long‐term variation in climatic patterns. This predictive model can be applied to better manage low‐productivity ecosystems, in which variation in biogeochemical processes and trophic dynamics may be driven by positive density‐dependent feedbacks that influence temporal abundance and productivity patterns.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Ecological Society of America","doi":"10.1890/09-0145.1","usgsCitation":"Butterfield, B., Betancourt, J.L., Turner, R., and Briggs, J.M., 2010, Facilitation drives 65 years of vegetation change in the Sonoran Desert: Ecology, v. 91, no. 4, p. 1132-1139, https://doi.org/10.1890/09-0145.1.","productDescription":"8 p.","startPage":"1132","endPage":"1139","costCenters":[{"id":148,"text":"Branch of Regional Research-Western Region","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":382189,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"91","issue":"4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a06e4b07f02db5f8906","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Butterfield, Bradley J.","contributorId":18096,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Butterfield","given":"Bradley J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":349216,"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":349213,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Turner, Raymond M.","contributorId":7383,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Turner","given":"Raymond M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":349215,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Briggs, John M.","contributorId":6986,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Briggs","given":"John","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":349214,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

Mineralization occurs as vein fillings and irregular replacement ore bodies consisting of sphalerite, banded sphalerite, galena, pyrite, sulfosalts (jordanite and geocronite), barite, and calcite in the Middle Triassic carbonate host rock. Combining paragenetic information, fluid inclusion investigations, stable isotope and mineral chemistry with thermodynamic modeling, we have derived a model for the formation of the Wiesloch deposit. This model involves fluid mixing between ascending hot brines (originating in the crystalline basement) with sedimentary formation waters. The ascending brines originally had a near-neutral pH (around 6) and intermediate oxidation state, reflecting equilibrium with granites and gneisses in the basement. During fluid ascent and cooling, the pH of the brine shifted towards more acidic (around 4) and the oxidation state increased to conditions above the hematite-magnetite buffer. These chemical characteristics contrast strongly with those of the pore and fracture fluid residing in the limestone aquifer, which had a pH between 8 and 9 in equilibrium with calcite and was rather reduced due to the presence of organic matter in the limestone. Mixing between these two fluids resulted in a strong decrease in the solubility of silver-bearing sphalerite and galena, and calcite. Besides Wiesloch, several Pb–Zn deposits are known along the Upper Rhinegraben, including hydrothermal vein-type deposits like Badenweiler and the Michael mine near Lahr. They all share the same fluid origin and formation process and only differ in details of their host rock and fluid cooling paths. The mechanism of fluid mixing also seems to be responsible for the formation of other MVT deposits in Europe (e.g., Réocin, Northern Spain; Trèves, Southern France; and Cracow-Silesia, Poland), which show notable similarities in terms of their age, mineralogy. and mineral chemistry to the MVT deposit near Wiesloch.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s00126-010-0296-5","usgsCitation":"Pfaff, K., Hildebrandt, L.H., Leach, D.L., Jacob, D.E., and Markl, G., 2010, Formation of the Wiesloch Mississippi Valley-type Zn-Pb-Ag deposit in the extensional setting of the Upper Rhinegraben, SW Germany: Mineralium Deposita, v. 45, no. 7, p. 647-666, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00126-010-0296-5.","productDescription":"20 p.","startPage":"647","endPage":"666","costCenters":[{"id":171,"text":"Central Mineral and Environmental Resources Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":382889,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Germany","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              9.063720703124998,\n              50.38050249104245\n            ],\n            [\n              8.0419921875,\n              50.15578588538455\n            ],\n            [\n              7.646484374999999,\n              48.63290858589535\n            ],\n            [\n              7.130126953125,\n              47.73932336136857\n            ],\n            [\n              8.10791015625,\n              47.70976154266637\n            ],\n            [\n              9.173583984375,\n              50.366488762738264\n            ],\n            [\n              9.063720703124998,\n              50.38050249104245\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"45","issue":"7","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2010-06-30","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4b24e4b07f02db6ae419","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Pfaff, Katharina","contributorId":49916,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Pfaff","given":"Katharina","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":346984,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Hildebrandt, Ludwig H.","contributorId":101375,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hildebrandt","given":"Ludwig","email":"","middleInitial":"H.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":346988,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Leach, David L.","contributorId":83902,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Leach","given":"David","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":346987,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Jacob, Dorrit E.","contributorId":51008,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Jacob","given":"Dorrit","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":346985,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Markl, Gregor","contributorId":73732,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Markl","given":"Gregor","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":346986,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

This meeting was supported later in 2000 by the United Nations in a resolution adopted by the General Assembly. By 2002, the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme (KPCS) was ratified and signed by diamond-producing and diamond-importing countries. Over 70 countries were included as members of the KPCS at the end of 2007. To prevent trade in \"conflict diamonds\" while protecting legitimate trade, the KPCS requires that each country set up an internal system of controls to prevent conflict diamonds from entering any imported or exported shipments of rough diamonds. Every diamond or diamond shipment must be accompanied by a Kimberley Process (KP) certificate and be contained in tamper-proof packaging. The objective of this study was (1) to assess the naturally occurring endowment of diamonds in Mali (potential resources) based on geological evidence, previous studies, and recent field data and (2) to assess the diamond-production capacity and measure the intensity of mining activity. Several possible methods can be used to estimate the potential diamond resource. However, because there is generally a lack of sufficient and consistent data recording all diamond mining in Mali and because time to conduct fieldwork and accessibility to the diamond mining areas are limited, four different methodologies were used: the cylindrical calculation of the primary kimberlitic deposits, the surface area methodology, the volume and grade approach, and the content per kilometer approach. Approximately 700,000 carats are estimated to be in the alluvial deposits of the Kenieba region, with 540,000 carats calculated to lie within the concentration grade deposits. Additionally, 580,000 carats are estimated to have been released from the primary kimberlites in the region. Therefore, the total estimated diamond resources in the Kenieba region are thought to be nearly 1,300,000 carats. The Bougouni zones are estimated to have 1,000,000 carats with more than half, 630,000 carats, contained in concentrated deposits. When combined, the Kenieba and Bougouni regions of Mali are estimated to be host to 2,300,000 carats of diamonds.","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sir20105044","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the Bureau de Recherches Geologiques et Minieres and the Direction Nationale de la Geologie et des Mines under the auspices of the U.S. Department of State","usgsCitation":"Chirico, P., Barthelemy, F., and Kone, F., 2010, Alluvial diamond resource potential and production capacity assessment of Mali (Originally posted on April 7, 2010; French translation November 18, 2013): U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2010-5044, iv, 23 p.; Rapport PDF en français, https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20105044.","productDescription":"iv, 23 p.; Rapport PDF en français","startPage":"i","endPage":"23","numberOfPages":"27","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","costCenters":[{"id":410,"text":"National Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":116959,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/sir_2010_5044.jpg"},{"id":91754,"rank":100,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2010/5044/","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}},{"id":279228,"type":{"id":2,"text":"Additional Report Piece"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2010/5044/french/pdf/sir2010-5044_french.pdf"},{"id":279229,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2010/5044/pdf/sir2010-5044.pdf"},{"id":279227,"type":{"id":2,"text":"Additional Report Piece"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2010/5044/french/"}],"country":"Mali","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -15,8 ], [ -15,27 ], [ 8,27 ], [ 8,8 ], [ -15,8 ] ] ] } } ] }","edition":"Originally posted on April 7, 2010; French translation November 18, 2013","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4ae6e4b07f02db68b47e","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Chirico, Peter G.","contributorId":27086,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Chirico","given":"Peter G.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":352097,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Barthelemy, Francis","contributorId":88473,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Barthelemy","given":"Francis","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":352099,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Kone, Fatiaga","contributorId":87030,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kone","given":"Fatiaga","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":352098,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

In the Congaree River, floodwaters frequently originate in the Blue Ridge and Piedmont regions, where wetlands coverage and surface water dissolved methylmercury (MeHg) concentrations are low. Piedmont-driven flood events can lead to downward hydraulic gradients in the Coastal Plain riparian wetland margins, inhibiting MeHg transport from wetland sediments, and decreasing MeHg availability in the Congaree River habitat. In the adjacent Edisto River basin, floodwaters originate only within Coastal Plain sediments, maintaining upward hydraulic gradients even during flood events, promoting MeHg transport to the water column, and enhancing MeHg availability in the Edisto River habitat. These results indicate that flood hydrodynamics contribute to the variability in Hg vulnerability between Coastal Plain rivers and that comprehensive regional assessment of the relationship between flood hydrodynamics and Hg risk in Coastal Plain streams is warranted.","language":"English","publisher":"ACS Publications","publisherLocation":"Washington,

Seep sediments also contain smaller macrofaunal invertebrates whose nutritional pathways are not well understood. Using stable-isotope analysis, we investigate the utilization of chemosynthetically fixed and methane-derived organic matter by macrofauna. Biological sampling was conducted in three lower-slope GOM seep environs: Green Canyon (GC852, 1428 m), Atwater Valley (AT340, 2230 m), and Alaminos Canyon (AC601, 2384 m). Infaunal delta<sup>13</sup>C and delta<sup>15</sup>N exhibited a broad range of values; most infauna appeared to be heterotrophic, although several taxa had very light delta<sup>15</sup>N and delta<sup>13</sup>C values, indicating possible reliance on chemoautotrophic symbioses. The lightest delta<sup>13</sup>C and delta<sup>15</sup>N values were observed in nematodes (delta<sup>13</sup>C=-54.6 + or - 0.1 per mil, delta<sup>15</sup>N=-6.1 + or - 0.2 per mil) and one gastropod (delta<sup>13</sup>C=-54.1 per mil, delta<sup>15</sup>N=-1.1 per mil) from Green Canyon. Mixing-model results indicated that sulfur-oxidizing Beggiatoa may be an important food source for seep infauna; the rate of utilization ranged from 60% to 100% at Green Canyon and Atwater Valley. The overall range in isotope values was similar across the three sites, suggesting that biogeochemical processes may be very similar in these geographically distinct areas.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Deep-Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","publisherLocation":"Amsterdam, Netherlands","doi":"10.1016/j.dsr2.2010.05.011","usgsCitation":"Demopoulos, A., Gualtieri, D., and Kovacs, K., 2010, Food-web structure of seep sediment macrobenthos from the Gulf of Mexico: Deep-Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography, v. 57, no. 21-23, p. 1972-1981, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.dsr2.2010.05.011.","productDescription":"10 p.","startPage":"1972","endPage":"1981","costCenters":[{"id":566,"text":"Southeast Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":269283,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.dsr2.2010.05.011"},{"id":203994,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"otherGeospatial":"Gulf Of Mexico","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -98.5,22 ], [ -98.5,32.5 ], [ -85.5,32.5 ], [ -85.5,22 ], [ -98.5,22 ] ] ] } } ] }","volume":"57","issue":"21-23","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4b24e4b07f02db6ae6a5","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Demopoulos, Amanda W.J. 0000-0003-2096-4694","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2096-4694","contributorId":28938,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Demopoulos","given":"Amanda W.J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347848,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Gualtieri, Daniel","contributorId":28351,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Gualtieri","given":"Daniel","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347847,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Kovacs, Kaitlin 0000-0002-4089-434X","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4089-434X","contributorId":24078,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kovacs","given":"Kaitlin","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347846,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

For instance, landfalls of several recent major hurricanes have caused significant changes to the U.S. coastline, particularly along the Gulf of Mexico. Some of these hurricanes (e.g., Ivan in 2004, Katrina and Rita in 2005, and Gustav and Ike in 2008) led to shoreline position changes of about 100 meters. Sand dunes, which protect the coast from waves and surge, eroded, losing several meters of elevation in the course of a single storm. Observations during these events raise the question of how storm-related changes affect the future vulnerability of a coast.","language":"English","publisher":"American Geophysical Union","doi":"10.1029/2010EO070001","usgsCitation":"Plant, N.G., Stockdon, H.F., Sallenger, Turco, M.J., East, J., Taylor, A.A., and Shaffer, W.A., 2010, Forecasting hurricane impact on coastal topography: Hurricane Ike: Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union, v. 91, no. 7, p. 65-72, https://doi.org/10.1029/2010EO070001.","productDescription":"8 p.","startPage":"65","endPage":"72","costCenters":[{"id":574,"text":"St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":204014,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","volume":"91","issue":"7","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2011-06-03","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e49d6e4b07f02db5de3b2","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Plant, Nathaniel G. 0000-0002-5703-5672 nplant@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5703-5672","contributorId":3503,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Plant","given":"Nathaniel","email":"nplant@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[{"id":508,"text":"Office of the AD Hazards","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":574,"text":"St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":347939,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Stockdon, Hilary F. 0000-0003-0791-4676 hstockdon@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0791-4676","contributorId":2153,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Stockdon","given":"Hilary","email":"hstockdon@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"F.","affiliations":[{"id":186,"text":"Coastal and Marine Geology Program","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":574,"text":"St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":347938,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Sallenger, Jr.","contributorId":105768,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Sallenger","suffix":"Jr.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347942,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Turco, Michael J. mjturco@usgs.gov","contributorId":1011,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Turco","given":"Michael","email":"mjturco@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":true,"id":347936,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"East, Jeffery W. jweast@usgs.gov","contributorId":1683,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"East","given":"Jeffery W.","email":"jweast@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":583,"text":"Texas Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":347937,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Taylor, Arthur A.","contributorId":54716,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Taylor","given":"Arthur","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347941,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Shaffer, Wilson A.","contributorId":7826,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Shaffer","given":"Wilson","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347940,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}

Passive drift cannot account for the rapidity of observed population expansions. To test the reaction-diffusion mechanism for spread of the fish, we estimated their diffusion coefficient and applied a reaction-diffusion model. This mechanism was also too weak to account for the spatial dynamics. Two other hypotheses were tested through modeling. The first--the 'refuge mechanism--hypothesizes that small remnant populations of small fishes survive the dry season in small permanent bodies of water (refugia), sites where the water level is otherwise below the surface. The second mechanism, which we call the 'dynamic ideal free distribution mechanism' is that consumption by the fish creates a prey density gradient and that fish taxis along this gradient can lead to rapid population expansion in space. We examined the two alternatives and concluded that although refugia may play an important role in recolonization by the fish population during reflooding, only the second, taxis in the direction of the flooding front, seems capable of matching empirical observations. This study has important implications for management of wetlands, as fish biomass is an essential support of higher trophic levels.","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2009.12.021","usgsCitation":"DeAngelis, D., Trexler, J.C., Cosner, C., Obaza, A., and Jopp, F., 2010, Fish population dynamics in a seasonally varying wetland: Ecological Modelling, v. 221, no. 8, p. 1131-1137, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2009.12.021.","productDescription":"7 p.","startPage":"1131","endPage":"1137","costCenters":[{"id":566,"text":"Southeast Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":203866,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Florida","otherGeospatial":"Everglades","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -81.815185546875,\n              25.095548539604252\n            ],\n            [\n              -80.474853515625,\n              25.095548539604252\n            ],\n            [\n              -80.474853515625,\n              26.175158990178133\n            ],\n            [\n              -81.815185546875,\n              26.175158990178133\n            ],\n            [\n              -81.815185546875,\n              25.095548539604252\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"221","issue":"8","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e49f3e4b07f02db5ef538","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"DeAngelis, Donald L. 0000-0002-1570-4057","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1570-4057","contributorId":88015,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"DeAngelis","given":"Donald L.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348605,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Trexler, Joel C.","contributorId":36267,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Trexler","given":"Joel","email":"","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":7017,"text":"Florida International University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":348602,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Cosner, Chris","contributorId":38698,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Cosner","given":"Chris","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348603,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Obaza, Adam","contributorId":14099,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Obaza","given":"Adam","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348601,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Jopp, Fred","contributorId":62336,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Jopp","given":"Fred","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348604,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

Sampling of wild birds is often conducted in remote regions, but results are often delayed because of limited local analytical capabilities, difficulties with sample transportation and permitting, or problems keeping samples cold in the field. In response to these challenges, the performance of a portable real-time, reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR) unit (RAPID(Registered), Idaho Technologies, Salt Lake City, UT) that employed lyophilized reagents (Influenza A Target 1 Taqman; ASAY-ASY-0109, Idaho Technologies) was compared to virus isolation combined with real-time RT-PCR conducted in a laboratory. This study included both field and experimental-based sampling. Field samples were collected from migratory shorebirds captured in northern California, while experimental samples were prepared by spiking fecal material with an H6N2 AIV isolate. Results indicated that the portable rRT-PCR unit had equivalent specificity to virus isolation with no false positives, but sensitivity was compromised at low viral titers. Use of portable rRT-PCR with lyophilized reagents may expedite surveillance results, paving the way to a better understanding of wild bird involvement in HPAIV H5N1 transmission.","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.jviromet.2010.02.029","usgsCitation":"Takekawa, J.Y., Iverson, S.A., Schultz, A.K., Hill, N., Cardona, C.J., Boyce, W.M., and Dudley, J.P., 2010, Field detection of avian influenza virus in wild birds: evaluation of a portable rRT-PCR system and freeze-dried reagents: Journal of Virological Methods, v. 166, no. 1-2, p. 92-97, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jviromet.2010.02.029.","productDescription":"6 p.","startPage":"92","endPage":"97","costCenters":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":382875,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"166","issue":"1-2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e49fbe4b07f02db5f4d0c","contributors":{"authors":[{"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":350113,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Iverson, Samuel A.","contributorId":52308,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Iverson","given":"Samuel","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":12437,"text":"Simon Fraser University, Centre for Wildlife Ecology","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":350118,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Schultz, Annie K. akschultz@usgs.gov","contributorId":3769,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Schultz","given":"Annie","email":"akschultz@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[],"preferred":true,"id":350114,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Hill, Nichola J.","contributorId":30342,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hill","given":"Nichola J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":350117,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Cardona, Carol J.","contributorId":10536,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Cardona","given":"Carol","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":350115,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Boyce, Walter M.","contributorId":75671,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Boyce","given":"Walter","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":350119,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Dudley, Joseph P.","contributorId":18495,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Dudley","given":"Joseph","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":350116,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}
