The Pacific Ocean is particularly important in this respect because of its dominant role in exporting heat and moisture from the tropics to higher latitudes. Through targeting groundwaters in the Mojave Desert, California, we show that noble gas derived temperatures in California averaged 4.2 ?? 1.1 ??C cooler in the Late Pleistocene (from ???43 to ???12 ka) compared to the Holocene (from ???10 to ???5 ka). Furthermore, the older groundwaters contain higher concentrations of excess air (entrained air bubbles) and have elevated oxygen-18/oxygen-16 ratios (??<sup>18</sup>O) - indicators of vigorous aquifer recharge, and greater rainfall amounts and/or more intense precipitation events, respectively. Together, these paleoclimate indicators reveal that cooler and wetter conditions prevailed in the Mojave Desert from ???43 to ???12 ka. We suggest that during the Late Pleistocene, the Pacific ocean/atmosphere state was similar to present-day El Nino-like patterns, and was characterized by prolonged periods of weak trade winds, weak upwelling along the eastern Pacific margin, and increased precipitation in the southwestern U.S.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Quaternary Science Reviews","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","doi":"10.1016/j.quascirev.2009.05.008","issn":"02773791","usgsCitation":"Kulongoski, J., Hilton, D.R., Izbicki, J., and Belitz, K., 2009, Evidence for prolonged El Nino-like conditions in the Pacific during the Late Pleistocene: a 43 ka noble gas record from California groundwaters: Quaternary Science Reviews, v. 28, no. 23-24, p. 2465-2473, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2009.05.008.","startPage":"2465","endPage":"2473","numberOfPages":"9","costCenters":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":246526,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":218509,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2009.05.008"}],"volume":"28","issue":"23-24","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a0d4fe4b0c8380cd52f39","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Kulongoski, J.T. 0000-0002-3498-4154","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3498-4154","contributorId":61213,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kulongoski","given":"J.T.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":453787,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Hilton, David R.","contributorId":37116,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hilton","given":"David","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":453786,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Izbicki, J.

The data was collected to assess the groundwater suitability for domestic and agricultural use. Results of the study reveal that the pH of the groundwater in the area is slightly acidic to slightly alkaline. The electrical conductivity values, total dissolved solids (TDS) values and calcium, magnesium and sodium concentrations in the groundwater are generally below the limit set by the WHO for potable water supply. On the basis of activity diagrams, groundwater from the fractured aquifers appears to be stable within the montmorillonite field, suggesting weathering of silicate minerals. An inverse distance weighting interpolator with a power of 2 was applied to the data points to produce prediction maps for nitrate and fluoride. The distribution maps show the presence of high nitrate concentrations (50-194??mg/l) in some of the boreholes in the western part of the study area indicating anthropogenic impact on the groundwater. Elevated fluoride level (1.5-4??mg/l), higher than the WHO allowable fluoride concentration of 1.5, is recorded in the groundwater underlying the northeastern part of the study area, more specifically Bongo and its surrounding communities of the Upper East region. Results of this study suggest that groundwater from the fractured aquifers in the area exhibit low sodicity-low salinity (S1-C1), low sodicity-medium salinity (S1-C2) characteristics [United States Salinity Laboratory (USSL) classification scheme]. All data points from this study plot within the 'Excellent to good' category on a Wilcox diagram. Groundwater in this area thus appears to provide irrigation water of excellent quality. The hydrochemical results indicate that, although nitrate and fluoride concentrations in some boreholes are high, the groundwater in the study area, based on the parameters analyzed, is chemically potable and suitable for domestic and agricultural purposes. ??

The zircons occur in four textural variants of granitic orthogneiss from a large area of muscovite–biotite augen gneiss. Granitic orthogneiss from the nearby Fiftymile batholith, which straddles the Alaska–Yukon border, yielded a similar range in zircon U–Pb ages, suggesting that both the Fiftymile batholith and the Tanacross orthogneiss body consist of multiple intrusions. We interpret the overall tectonic setting for the Late Devonian and Early Mississippian magmatism as an extending continental margin (broad back-arc region) inboard of a northeast-dipping (present coordinates) subduction zone. New SHRIMP U–Pb ages of inherited zircon cores in the Tanacross orthogneisses and of detrital zircons from quartzite from the Jarvis belt in the Alaska Range (Mount Hayes quadrangle) include major 2.0–1.7 Ga clusters and lesser 2.7–2.3 Ga clusters, with subordinate 3.2, 1.4, and 1.1 Ga clusters in some orthogneiss samples. For the most part, these inherited and core U–Pb ages match those of basement provinces of the western Canadian Shield and indicate widespread potential sources within western Laurentia for most grain populations; these ages also match the detrital zircon reference for the northern North American miogeocline and support a correlation between the two areas.</p></div></div></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Canadian Science Publishing","doi":"10.1139/E09-005","issn":"00084077","usgsCitation":"Dusel-Bacon, C., and Williams, I., 2009, Evidence for prolonged mid-Paleozoic plutonism and ages of crustal sources in east-central Alaska from SHRIMP U-Pb dating of syn-magmatic, inherited, and detrital zircon: Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences, v. 46, no. 1, p. 21-39, https://doi.org/10.1139/E09-005.","productDescription":"19 p.","startPage":"21","endPage":"39","numberOfPages":"19","costCenters":[{"id":312,"text":"Geology, Minerals, Energy, and Geophysics Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":243998,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Alaska","otherGeospatial":"Yukon–Tanana Upland","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -154.599609375,\n              61.10078883158897\n            ],\n            [\n              -141.064453125,\n              61.10078883158897\n            ],\n            [\n              -141.064453125,\n              68.5924865825295\n            ],\n            [\n              -154.599609375,\n              68.5924865825295\n            ],\n            [\n              -154.599609375,\n              61.10078883158897\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"46","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a0d4fe4b0c8380cd52f3c","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Dusel-Bacon, Cynthia 0000-0001-8481-739X cdusel@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8481-739X","contributorId":2797,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Dusel-Bacon","given":"Cynthia","email":"cdusel@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":312,"text":"Geology, Minerals, Energy, and Geophysics Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":777935,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Williams, I.S.","contributorId":20094,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Williams","given":"I.S.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":453404,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

Since the Middle Pleistocene, eruption of ~ 350 km<sup>3</sup> of basalt through rhyolite has produced a 30 km, arc front chain of nested calderas and overlapping stratovolcanoes. ELVC has experienced as many as five major caldera-forming eruptions, the most recent, at ~ 27 ka, produced ~ 50 km<sup>3</sup> of rhyolitic ignimbrite and ash fall. These violent silicic events were interspersed with less energetic, but prodigious, outpourings of basalt through dacite. Holocene eruptions are mostly basaltic andesite to andesite and historically recorded activity includes over 40 eruptions within the last 200 yr, all from Pavlof volcano, the most active site in the Aleutian Arc. Geochemical and geophysical observations suggest that although all ELVC eruptions derive from a common clinopyroxene + spinel + plagioclase fractionating high-aluminum basalt parent in the lower crust, magma follows one of two closely spaced, but distinct paths to the surface. Under the eastern end of the chain, magma moves rapidly and cleanly through a relatively young (~ 28 ka), hydraulically connected dike plexus. Steady supply, short magma residence times, and limited interaction with crustal rocks preserve the geochemistry of deep crustal processes. Below the western part of the chain, magma moves haltingly through a long-lived (~ 500 ka) and complex intrusive column in which many generations of basaltic to andesitic melts have mingled and fractionated. Buoyant, silicic melts periodically separate from the lower parts of the column to feed voluminous eruptions of dacite and rhyolite. Mafic lavas record a complicated passage through cumulate zones and hydrous silicic residues as manifested by disequilibrium phenocryst textures, incompatible element enrichments, and decoupling of REEs and HFSEs ratios. Such features are absent in mafic lavas from the younger part of the chain, highlighting the importance of plumbing architecture and longevity in creating petrologic diversity.

Separate equations were developed to estimate these statistics for stations within similar hydrologic and geologic regions. Use of separate regressions by region substantially improved the accuracy of the estimate for streams in eastern and central Oklahoma when compared with estimating equations developed for the entire State, especially for regressions estimating lower flow duration values. For all regions, the equations were more reliable for estimating higher flow duration values. The accuracy of regressions for estimating flow duration statistics in western Oklahoma was very poor, especially for lower flow duration values. ?? 2009 ASCE.","largerWorkTitle":"Proceedings of World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2009 - World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2009: Great Rivers","conferenceTitle":"World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2009: Great Rivers","conferenceDate":"17 May 2009 through 21 May 2009","conferenceLocation":"Kansas City, MO","language":"English","doi":"10.1061/41036(342)486","isbn":"9780784410363","usgsCitation":"Esralew, R., 2009, Development of regression models to estimate flow duration statistics at ungaged streams in Oklahoma using a regional approach, <i>in</i> Proceedings of World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2009 - World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2009: Great Rivers, v. 342, Kansas City, MO, 17 May 2009 through 21 May 2009, p. 4819-4831, https://doi.org/10.1061/41036(342)486.","startPage":"4819","endPage":"4831","numberOfPages":"13","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":216084,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1061/41036(342)486"},{"id":243926,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"342","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2012-04-26","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a0062e4b0c8380cd4f729","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Esralew, R.A.","contributorId":71030,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Esralew","given":"R.A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":452878,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

The Kamchatka Volcanic Eruption Response Team (KVERT) monitors and reports on volcanic hazards to aviation for Kamchatka and the north Kuriles. KVERT scientists utilize real-time seismic data, daily satellite views of the region, real-time video, and pilot and field reports of activity to track and alert the aviation industry of hazardous activity. Most Kurile Island volcanoes are monitored by the Sakhalin Volcanic Eruption Response Team (SVERT) based in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk. SVERT uses daily moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite images to look for volcanic activity along this 1,250-km chain of islands. Neither operation is staffed 24&nbsp;h per day. In addition, the vast majority of Russian volcanoes are not monitored seismically in real-time. Other challenges include multiple time-zones and language differences that hamper communication among volcanologists and meteorologists in the US, Japan, and Russia who share the responsibility to issue official warnings. Rapid, consistent verification of explosive eruptions and determination of cloud heights remain significant technical challenges. Despite these difficulties, in more than a decade of frequent eruptive activity in Kamchatka and the northern Kuriles, no damaging encounters with volcanic ash from Russian eruptions have been recorded.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s11069-009-9347-6","issn":"0921030X","usgsCitation":"Neal, C.A., Girina, O., Senyukov, S., Rybin, A., Osiensky, J.M., Izbekov, P., and Ferguson, G., 2009, Russian eruption warning systems for aviation: Natural Hazards, v. 51, no. 2, p. 245-262, https://doi.org/10.1007/s11069-009-9347-6.","productDescription":"18 p.","startPage":"245","endPage":"262","numberOfPages":"18","costCenters":[{"id":615,"text":"Volcano Hazards Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":476303,"rank":1,"type":{"id":41,"text":"Open Access External Repository Page"},"url":"http://repo.kscnet.ru/228/1/10.1007-s11069-009-9347-6.pdf","text":"External Repository"},{"id":244113,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Japan, Russia, United States","state":"Alaska","otherGeospatial":"Kamchatka Peninsula, Kurile Islands","volume":"51","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2009-02-12","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505aaee1e4b0c8380cd87285","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Neal, Christina A. 0000-0002-7697-7825 tneal@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7697-7825","contributorId":131135,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Neal","given":"Christina","email":"tneal@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":452248,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Girina, Olga","contributorId":37406,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Girina","given":"Olga","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":452245,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Senyukov, Sergey","contributorId":199610,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Senyukov","given":"Sergey","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":452249,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Rybin, Alexander","contributorId":65187,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rybin","given":"Alexander","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":452247,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Osiensky, Jeffery M.","contributorId":30186,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Osiensky","given":"Jeffery","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":452243,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Izbekov, Pavel","contributorId":237833,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Izbekov","given":"Pavel","affiliations":[{"id":6752,"text":"University of Alaska Fairbanks","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":452244,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Ferguson, Gail","contributorId":248779,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Ferguson","given":"Gail","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":452246,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}

We propose that SO<sub>2</sub> release was triggered by static decompression caused by magma withdrawal from Kīlauea's shallow summit reservoir. Models of the deflation suggest a pressure drop of 0.5&ndash;3 MPa, which is sufficient to trigger exsolution of the observed excess SO<sub>2</sub> from a relatively small volume of magma at the modeled source depth beneath Kīlauea's summit. Static decompression may also explain other episodes of deflation accompanied by heightened gas emission, including the precursory phases of Kīlauea's 2008 summit eruption.

We constructed ontogenetic &delta;<sup>13</sup>C and &delta;<sup>15</sup>N profiles by analyzing tooth dentin growth layers from 13 individual killer whales <i>Orcinus orca</i> collected in the eastern northeast Pacific Ocean between 1961 and 2003. The individuals sampled were 6 to 52 yr old, representing 2 ecotypes&mdash;resident and transient&mdash;collected across ~25&deg; of latitude. The average isotopic values of transient individuals (n = 10) are consistent with a reliance on mammalian prey, while the average isotopic values of residents (n = 3) are consistent with piscivory. Regardless of ecotype, most individuals show a decrease in &delta;<sup>15</sup>N values of ~2.5&permil; through the first 3 yr of life, roughly equivalent to a decrease of one trophic level. We interpret this as evidence of gradual weaning, after which, ontogenetic shifts in isotopic values are highly variable. A few individuals (n = 2) maintained relatively stable &delta;<sup>15</sup>N and &delta;<sup>13</sup>C values throughout the remainder of their lives, whereas &delta;<sup>15</sup>N values of most (n = 11) increased by ~1.5&permil;, suggestive of an ontogenetic increase in trophic level. Significant differences in mean &delta;<sup>13</sup>C and &delta;<sup>15</sup>N values among transients collected off California suggest that individuality in prey preferences may be prevalent within this ecotype. Our approach provides retrospective individual life history and dietary information that cannot be obtained through traditional field observations of free-ranging and elusive species such as killer whales, including unique historic ecological information that pre-dates modern studies.

In Georgia and northern Florida, the species is associated with longleaf pine habitats that support Gopherus polyphemus (Gopher Tortoise) populations, the burrows of which D. couperi uses for shelter. The extent that D. couperi uses these burrows, in addition to the use of other underground shelters and the microhabitat features associated with these structures is largely unknown. From 2003 through 2004, we conducted a radiotelemetry study of D. couperi (n = 32) to examine use of shelters and microhabitat in Georgia. We used repeated measures regression on a candidate set of models created from a priori hypotheses using principal component scores, derived from analysis of microhabitat data to examine microhabitat use at underground shelters. Proportion of locations recorded underground did not differ seasonally or between sexes. In winter, we recorded >0.90 of underground locations at tortoise burrows. Use of these burrows was less pronounced in spring for males. Females used abandoned tortoise burrows more frequently than males year-round and used them on approximately 0.60 of their underground locations during spring. Microhabitat use at underground shelters was most influenced by season compared to sex, site, or body size. Females in spring and summer used more open microhabitat compared to males, potentially in response to gestation. Our results suggest that the availability of suitable underground shelters, especially G. polyphemus burrows, may be a limiting factor in the northern range of D. couperi, with important implications for its conservation. ?? 2009 by the American Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Copeia","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","doi":"10.1643/CH-07-171","issn":"00458511","usgsCitation":"Hyslop, N., Cooper, R., and Meyers, J., 2009, Seasonal shifts in shelter and microhabitat use of drymarchon couperi (eastern indigo snake) in Georgia: Copeia, v. 2009, no. 3, p. 458-464, https://doi.org/10.1643/CH-07-171.","startPage":"458","endPage":"464","numberOfPages":"7","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":243914,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":216072,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1643/CH-07-171"}],"volume":"2009","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505b88d7e4b08c986b316bcd","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Hyslop, N.L.","contributorId":22066,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hyslop","given":"N.L.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":451705,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Cooper, R.J.","contributorId":89077,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Cooper","given":"R.J.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":451707,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Meyers, J.M.","contributorId":54307,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Meyers","given":"J.M.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":451706,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Also changed are&nbsp;fire regimes, first by native peoples who used fire for a&nbsp;variety of purposes and then by European settlers, who&nbsp;directly and indirectly contributed to a great reduction&nbsp;in the frequency of fire on the landscape. Perhaps of&nbsp;even greater importance has been the introduction of&nbsp;nonnative plant species, which have come to impact&nbsp;every community type to some degree.&nbsp;Nonnative plants have a wide array of impacts on&nbsp;native ecosystems and populations in the Central&nbsp;bioregion, and these impacts continue to mount and&nbsp;evolve. Many long-time invaders, such as smooth brome&nbsp;(Bromus inermis), and leafy spurge (Euphorbia esula),&nbsp;have already spread to large areas, and their ranges&nbsp;may still be expanding. Others, such as tamarisk or&nbsp;saltcedar (Tamarix spp.) and buffelgrass (Pennisetum&nbsp;ciliare), are rapidly spreading at the present time,&nbsp;while still others have likely not yet shown their full&nbsp;potential for expansion. In this volume, as well as in&nbsp;this chapter, our emphasis is on the interaction of&nbsp;nonnatives with fire, how it affects them and how they&nbsp;affect it.&nbsp;The ecosystems of the Central bioregion have been&nbsp;shaped by fire, including fires associated with natural&nbsp;ignitions and those deliberately set by humans. Both&nbsp;grasslands and shrublands in this bioregion experienced frequent and widespread fires during their evolution (Stewart 2002). Prescribed fire is now widely used&nbsp;to manage some areas for their natural characteristics.&nbsp;Thus, while changed in character, both by conditions&nbsp;that now limit wildfire occurrence and spread and by&nbsp;prescribed burning, the Central bioregion remains one&nbsp;with a high fire frequency (Wade and others 2000).&nbsp;Fire interactions with nonnative plants can have&nbsp;important impacts. In some cases, fire can be a means&nbsp;of reducing impacts of nonnative species (chapter 4).&nbsp;In other cases, fire may facilitate the establishment&nbsp;and spread of nonnatives (chapter 2). Some nonnative species can radically change the fire regime itself&nbsp;(chapter3). Because of the widespread use of prescribed&nbsp;fire in this bioregion, it is important to know how nonnative species interact with fire and whether there are&nbsp;means whereby these interactions can be controlled.</p>","largerWorkType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"largerWorkTitle":"Wildland fire in ecosystems: Fire and nonnative invasive plants","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":1,"text":"Federal Government Series"},"language":"English","publisher":"U.

Whereas most of the Gila Wilderness is dominated by silicic, caldera-forming supervolcanoes of Eocene to Oligocene age, this part of NM-15 traverses a volcanic terrain of similar age, but composed mainly of intermediate composition lava flows and minor associated rhyolitic intrusions and pyroclastic rocks, which are related to the here-named Copperas Creek volcano. This volcanic complex is bounded by Basin and Range structures: on the south by the Sapillo Creek graben, and on the north by the Gila Hot Springs graben, both of which are filled with Gila Conglomerate of late Tertiary to Pleistocene(?) age. Hot springs in the Gila River valley are localized along faults in the deepest part of the Gila Hot Springs graben. The cliff dwellings of the National Monument were constructed in caves in Gila Conglomerate in the western part of the Gila Hot Springs graben. The eastern edge of the Gila Cliff Dwellings caldera is buried by younger rocks east of the cliff dwellings, but spectacular cliffs of Bloodgood Canyon Tuff, which fills the caldera, can be viewed along the West Fork of the Gila River from the trail starting at the cliff dwellings. Although this is not intended as a formal road log, highway mileage markers (MM) will be used to locate geologic features more or less progressively from south to north along NM-15.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"New Mexico Geological Society Fall Field Conference Guidebook 59 Geology of the Gila Wilderness-Silver City area","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":12,"text":"Conference publication"},"language":"English","publisher":"New Mexico Geological Society","doi":"10.56577/FFC-59.129","usgsCitation":"Ratte, J.C., 2008, The Early Oligocene Copperas Creek Volcano and geology along New Mexico Higway 15 between Sapillo Creek and the Gila Cliff Dwellings National Monument, Grant and Catron Counties, New Mexico, <i>in</i> New Mexico Geological Society Fall Field Conference Guidebook 59 Geology of the Gila Wilderness-Silver City area, p. 129-140, https://doi.org/10.56577/FFC-59.129.","productDescription":"12 p.","startPage":"129","endPage":"140","ipdsId":"IP-004856","costCenters":[{"id":171,"text":"Central Mineral and Environmental Resources Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":275598,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"New Mexico","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -109.05,31.33 ], [ -109.05,37.0 ], [ -103.0,37.0 ], [ -103.0,31.33 ], [ -109.05,31.33 ] ] ] } } ] }","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"51f8e066e4b0cecbe8fa98bd","contributors":{"editors":[{"text":"Mack, Greg","contributorId":111993,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Mack","given":"Greg","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":509269,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Witcher, James","contributorId":111782,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Witcher","given":"James","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":509268,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Lueth, Virgil W.","contributorId":113648,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lueth","given":"Virgil","email":"","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":509270,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":3}],"authors":[{"text":"Ratte, James C.","contributorId":47671,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ratte","given":"James","email":"","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":476224,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

Here we summarize results for 2,773 shorebirds that were live-trapped on the Pacific coast of the United States during 2006-2007 and tested for avian influenza virus using real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and virus isolation. As was the case throughout North America, HPAI H5N1 was not detected in shorebirds during this interval. Contrary to other wild bird groups, most notably waterfowl, the prevalence of even low pathogenicity virus among shorebirds in our study areas in California, Washington, and Alaska was extremely low (0.5%). Virus was detected by RT-PCR from four different species, including, Dunlin (Calidris alpina; N = 3), Western Sandpiper (C. mauri; N = 8), Long-billed Dowitcher (Limnodromus scolopaceus; N = 1), and American Avocet (Recurvirostra americana; N = 1), with the detections in the latter three constituting the first published records for these birds. Based on studies in the eastern United States, we expected, but did not detect (H<sub>1</sub> = 1.6, P = 0.21) elevated avian influenza prevalence among shorebirds during spring migration. Diagnostic tests, which were designed to evaluate testing and sampling methods, indicated poor functioning of traditional virus isolation methods and no improvement in detection likelihood by collecting oropharyngeal swabs in addition to cloacal swab samples for low pathogenicity viruses (Z<sub>1</sub> = 0.7, P = 0.48).","language":"English","publisher":"The Waterbird Society","doi":"10.1675/1524-4695-31.4.602","usgsCitation":"Iverson, S.A., Takekawa, J.Y., Schwarzbach, S., Cardona, C.J., Warnock, N., Bishop, M.A., Schirato, G.A., Paroulek, S., Ackerman, J., Ip, S., and Boyce, W.M., 2008, Low prevalence of avian influenza virus in shorebirds on the Pacific coast of North America: Waterbirds, v. 31, no. 4, p. 602-610, https://doi.org/10.1675/1524-4695-31.4.602.","productDescription":"9 p.","startPage":"602","endPage":"610","costCenters":[{"id":456,"text":"National Wildlife Health Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":271653,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":271651,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1675/1524-4695-31.4.602"}],"volume":"31","issue":"4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2008-12-01","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5180e7e6e4b0df838b924d67","contributors":{"authors":[{"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":478136,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"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":478133,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Schwarzbach, Steven","contributorId":88038,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Schwarzbach","given":"Steven","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":478141,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Cardona, Carol J.","contributorId":10536,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Cardona","given":"Carol","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":478134,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Warnock, Nils","contributorId":64534,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Warnock","given":"Nils","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":478137,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Bishop, Mary Anne","contributorId":10698,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bishop","given":"Mary","email":"","middleInitial":"Anne","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":478135,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Schirato, Greg A.","contributorId":68627,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Schirato","given":"Greg","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":478138,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Paroulek, Sara","contributorId":75041,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Paroulek","given":"Sara","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":478139,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8},{"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":478143,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":9},{"text":"Ip, S. 0000-0003-4844-7533 hip@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4844-7533","contributorId":727,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ip","given":"S.","email":"hip@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":456,"text":"National Wildlife Health Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":478142,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":10},{"text":"Boyce, Walter M.","contributorId":75671,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Boyce","given":"Walter","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":478140,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":11}]}}

Traps are principally stratigraphic and structural/stratigraphic, with most discovered accumulations occurring in deep-sea channel, fan, and braided submarine channel deposits of the late Miocene Stevens sand. Smaller and fewer accumulations are found in older sandstones such as the Vedder and Jewett Sands of Oligocene to Miocene age. Compared to the west side of the basin, the AU is largely unstructured, except for localized down-to-the-basin normal faults. Map boundaries of the assessment unit are shown in figures 14.1 and 14.2; this assessment unit supersedes the Lower Bakersfield Arch play 1003 considered by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in the 1995 National Assessment (Beyer, 1996). Stratigraphically, the AU extends from the uppermost crystalline basement to the topographic surface (fig. 14.3). The AU is bounded on the east and north by the limit of basinal- facies sandstones of the Stevens sand; this eastern boundary corresponds to the approximate location of the shelf-slope break of the San Joaquin Basin in late Miocene time. The western boundary of the AU is the approximate eastern limit of structural deformation on the basin’s west side. The White Wolf Fault bounds the AU on the south.","largerWorkType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"largerWorkTitle":"Petroleum systems and geologic assessment of oil and gas in the San Joaquin Basin Province, California (PP 1713)","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":5,"text":"USGS Numbered Series"},"language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/pp171314","usgsCitation":"Gautier, D.L., and Hosford Scheirer, A., 2008, Miocene Total Petroleum System -- Lower Bakersfield Arch Assessment Unit of the San Joaquin Basin Province: Chapter 14 in <i>Petroleum systems and geologic assessment of oil and gas in the San Joaquin Basin Province, California</i>: U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 1713-14, Chapter 14: 17 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/pp171314.","productDescription":"Chapter 14: 17 p.","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","costCenters":[{"id":255,"text":"Energy Resources Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":266961,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/pp_1713_14.jpg"},{"id":266959,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/pp1713/","text":"Index Page","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}},{"id":266960,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/pp1713/14/pp1713_ch14.pdf","text":"Report","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"country":"United States","state":"California","otherGeospatial":"San Joaquin basin","publicComments":"This report is Chapter 14 in <i>Petroleum systems and geologic assessment of oil and gas in the San Joaquin Basin Province, California</i>.

(1998) and Glynn and Voss (1999; also published in Glynn et al., 1999) considered the possibility that during future glaciations, oxygenated glacial meltwaters from two- to three-kilometer thick ice sheets could potentially intrude to the 500 m depth of planned nuclear-waste repositories. This possibility has been of concern because of potential negative effects on the stability of the repository engineered environment, and because of the potential mobilization of radionuclides should the oxygenated waters come into contact with the radioactive waste. The above reports argued that given the current state of knowledge, it was hard to discount the possibility that oxygenated waters could penetrate to repository level depth. The reports also suggested that oxidizing conditions might be present in the fractured rock environment for significant amounts of time, on the order of thousands to tens of thousands of years. In some earlier reports, Swedish and Finnish governmental agencies in charge of nuclear-waste disposal had considered the possibility that oxygenated meltwaters might intrude to the repository depth (SKI: 1992; Martinerie et al, 1992; Ahonen and Vieno, 1994).

(1999) and Glynn and Voss (1999), the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Handling Company (SKB) commissioned efforts to examine more thoroughly the possibilities that oxygenated meltwaters might occur under ice-sheet conditions and intrude to the repository depth.","largerWorkType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"largerWorkTitle":"Review of SKB's safety assessment SR-Can: Contributions in support of SKI's and SSI's review by external consultants","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":4,"text":"Other Government Series"},"language":"English","publisher":"Swedish Nuclear Power Inspectorate (SKI)","publisherLocation":"Stockholm, Sweden","usgsCitation":"Glynn, P., 2008, Future intrusion of oxygenated glacial meltwaters into the Fennoscandian shield: A possibility to consider in performance assessments for nuclear-waste disposal sites?, chap. 6 <i>of</i> Review of SKB's safety assessment SR-Can: Contributions in support of SKI's and SSI's review by external consultants, 15 p.","productDescription":"15 p.","ipdsId":"IP-005604","costCenters":[{"id":436,"text":"National Research Program - Eastern Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":273820,"rank":2,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":273819,"rank":1,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://www.stralsakerhetsmyndigheten.se/en/publications/reports/waste-shipments-physical-protection/2008/200816/"}],"country":"Finland, Norway, Russia, Sweden","otherGeospatial":"Fennoscandian Shield","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ 0.0,54.5 ], [ 0.0,72.0 ], [ 44.0,72.0 ], [ 44.0,54.5 ], [ 0.0,54.5 ] ] ] } } ] }","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"51c02feae4b0ee1529ed3cd8","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Glynn, Pierre","contributorId":88248,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Glynn","given":"Pierre","affiliations":[{"id":595,"text":"U.S. Geological Survey","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":479728,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

Model input includes 3-D structural and stratigraphic data for key horizons and maps of unit thickness, lithology, paleobathymetry, heat flow, original total organic carbon, and original Rock-Eval pyrolysis hydrogen index for each source rock. The four principal petroleum source rocks in the basin are the Miocene Antelope shale of Graham and Williams (1985; hereafter referred to as Antelope shale), the Eocene Kreyenhagen Formation, the Eocene Tumey formation of Atwill (1935; hereafter referred to as Tumey formation), and the Cretaceous to Paleocene Moreno Formation. Due to limited Rock-Eval/total organic carbon data, the Tumey formation was modeled using constant values of original total organic carbon and original hydrogen index. Maps of original total organic carbon and original hydrogen index were created for the other three source rocks. The Antelope shale was modeled using Type IIS kerogen kinetics, whereas Type II kinetics were used for the other source rocks. Four-dimensional modeling and geologic field evidence indicate that maximum burial of the three principal Cenozoic source rocks occurred in latest Pliocene to Holocene time. For example, a 1-D extraction of burial history from the 4-D model in the Tejon depocenter shows that the bottom of the Antelope shale source rock began expulsion (10 percent transformation ratio) about 4.6 Ma and reached peak expulsion (50 percent transformation ratio) about 3.6 Ma. Except on the west flank of the basin, where steep dips in outcrop and seismic data indicate substantial uplift, little or no section has been eroded. Most petroleum migration occurred during late Cenozoic time in distinct stratigraphic intervals along east-west pathways from pods of active petroleum source rock in the Tejon and Buttonwillow depocenters to updip sandstone reservoirs. Satisfactory runs of the model required about 18 hours of computation time for each simulation using parallel processing on a Linux-based cluster.","largerWorkType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"largerWorkTitle":"Petroleum systems and geologic assessment of oil and gas in the San Joaquin Basin Province, California (PP 1713)","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":5,"text":"USGS Numbered Series"},"language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/pp171312","usgsCitation":"Peters, K., Magoon, L.B., Lampe, C., Scheirer, A.H., Lillis, P.G., and Gautier, D.L., 2008, A four-dimensional petroleum systems model for the San Joaquin Basin Province, California: Chapter 12 in <i>Petroleum systems and geologic assessment of oil and gas in the San Joaquin Basin Province, California</i>: U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 1713-12, Chapter 12: 35 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/pp171312.","productDescription":"Chapter 12: 35 p.","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","costCenters":[{"id":255,"text":"Energy Resources Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":266301,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/pp_1713_12.jpg"},{"id":266299,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/pp1713/","text":"Index Page","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}},{"id":266300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/pp1713/12/pp1713_ch12.pdf","text":"Report","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"country":"United States","state":"California","otherGeospatial":"San Joaquin Basin","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -121.75,34.75 ], [ -121.75,38.0 ], [ -118.75,38.0 ], [ -118.75,34.75 ], [ -121.75,34.75 ] ] ] } } ] }","publicComments":"This report is Chapter 12 in <i>Petroleum systems and geologic assessment of oil and gas in the San Joaquin Basin Province, California</i>.

The black flea beetles (<i>Aphthona lacertosa</i> and <i>A. czwalinae</i>) in particular have been shown to cause reductions in leafy spurge stem counts in the northern Great Plains, while the brown flea beetle (<i>A. nigriscutis</i>) has persisted and spread, but has not been found to be as effective at controlling leafy spurge. The ability of black flea beetles to control leafy spurge in any given year, however, has been found to vary. To better understand the long-term effects of flea beetle herbivory on leafy spurge, we monitored stem counts of leafy spurge and numbers of black and brown flea beetles at three sites on two National Wildlife Refuges in east-central North Dakota, USA, from 1998 to 2006. Brown flea beetle numbers were observed to be negligible on these sites. Over the 9 years of the study, black flea beetles were seen to spread over the three study sites and leafy spurge stem counts declined substantially on two of the three sites. Even at low densities of spurge, black flea beetle populations persisted, a necessary prerequisite for long-term control. We used structural equation models (SEM) to assess the yearly effects of black flea beetles, soil texture, and refuge site on leafy spurge stem counts over this time period. We then used equations developed from the SEM analysis to explore flea beetle&ndash;leafy spurge dynamics over time, after controlling for soil texture and refuge. Yearly effect strength of black flea beetles on leafy spurge was found to be modest, largely owing to substantial spatial variability in control. However, simulation results based on prediction coefficients revealed leafy spurge to be highly responsive to increases in flea beetle populations on average.","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.biocontrol.2008.07.016","usgsCitation":"Larson, D.L., Grace, J.B., and Larson, J.L., 2008, Long-term dynamics of leafy spurge

Structured decision-making is an application of decision science that strives to produce transparent, replicable, and defensible decisions that recognize the appropriate roles of management policy and science in decision-making. We present a multi-objective decision framework, where management objectives include successful establishment of a whooping crane population in Florida, minimization of costs, positive public relations, information gain, and providing a supply of captive-reared birds to alternative crane release projects, such as the Eastern Migratory Population. We developed models to predict the outcome relative to each of these objectives under 29 different scenarios of the release methodology used from 1993 to 2004, including options of no further releases and variable numbers of releases per year over the next 5-30 years. In particular, we developed a detailed set of population projection models, which make substantially different predictions about the probability of successful establishment of the FNMP. We used expert elicitation to develop prior model weights (measures of confidence in population model predictions); the results of the population model weighting and modelaveraging exercise indicated that the probability of successful establishment of the FNMP ranged from 9% if no additional releases are made, to as high as 41% with additional releases. We also used expert elicitation to develop weights (relative values) on the set of identified objectives, and we then used a formal optimization technique for identifying the optimal decision, which considers the tradeoffs between objectives. The optimal decision was identified as release of 3 cohorts (24 birds) per year over the next 10 years. However, any decision that involved release of 1-3 cohorts (8-24 birds) per year over the next 5 to 20 years, as well as decisions that involve skipping releases in every other year, performed better in our analysis than the alternative of no further releases. These results were driven by the relatively high objective weights that experts placed on the population objective (i.e., successful establishment of the FNMP) and the information gain objective (where releases are expected to accelerate learning on what was identified as a primary uncertainty: the demographic performance of wild-hatched birds). Additional considerations that were not formally integrated into the analysis are also discussed.","language":"English","publisher":"Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission","publisherLocation":"Tallahassee, FL","usgsCitation":"Moore, C., Converse, S., Folk, M.J., Boughton, R., Brooks, B., French, J.B., O’Meara, T., Putnam, M., Rodgers, J., and Spalding, M., 2008, Releases of whooping cranes to the Florida nonmigratory flock: a structured decision-making approach: report to the International Whooping Crane Recovery Team, September 22, 2008: FWRI Inhouse Report 2008-009, 26 p.; col. ill.","productDescription":"26 p.; col. ill.","numberOfPages":"26","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":21717,"rank":100,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://research.myfwc.com/publications/publication_info.asp?id=58528","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}},{"id":258155,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://research.myfwc.com/engine/download_redirection_process.asp?file=ihr2008%2D009%5F2726%2Epdf&objid=58528&dltype=publication","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":258160,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Florida","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505aa6b0e4b0c8380cd84fc6","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Moore, Clinton T.","contributorId":9767,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Moore","given":"Clinton T.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347426,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Converse, Sarah J.","contributorId":85716,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Converse","given":"Sarah J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347433,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Folk, Martin J.","contributorId":82568,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Folk","given":"Martin","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347432,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Boughton, Robin","contributorId":45175,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Boughton","given":"Robin","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347429,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Brooks, Bill","contributorId":90151,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Brooks","given":"Bill","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347434,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"French, John B. 0000-0001-8901-7092 jbfrench@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8901-7092","contributorId":377,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"French","given":"John","email":"jbfrench@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":347425,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"O’Meara, Timothy","contributorId":73454,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"O’Meara","given":"Timothy","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347431,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Putnam, Michael","contributorId":25815,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Putnam","given":"Michael","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347428,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8},{"text":"Rodgers, James","contributorId":56091,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rodgers","given":"James","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347430,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":9},{"text":"Spalding, Marilyn","contributorId":18220,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Spalding","given":"Marilyn","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":347427,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":10}]}}

Our new data indicate that only loess adjacent to the Platte River has Pb isotopic characteristics suggesting derivation from this river. Most Peoria Loess in central Nebraska (up to 20 m thick) is non-glaciogenic, on the basis of Pb isotope ratios in K-feldspars and the presence of 34-Ma detrital zircons. These isotopic characteristics suggest derivation primarily from the Oligocene White River Group in southern South Dakota, western Nebraska, southeastern Wyoming, and northeastern Colorado. The occurrence of 10&ndash;25 Ma detrital zircons suggests additional minor contributions of silt from the Oligocene-Miocene Arikaree Group and Miocene Ogallala Group. Isotopic data from detrital K-feldspar and zircon grains from Peoria Loess deposits in eastern Nebraska and western Iowa suggest that the immediate source of this loess was alluvium of the Missouri River. We conclude that this silt probably is of glaciogenic origin, primarily derived from outwash from the western margin of the Laurentide Ice Sheet. Identification of the White River Group as the main provenance of Peoria Loess of central Nebraska and the Missouri River valley as the immediate source of western Iowa Peoria Loess indicates that paleowind directions during the late Wisconsin were primarily from the northwest and west, in agreement with earlier studies of particle size and loess thickness variation. In addition, the results are in agreement with recent simulations of non-glaciogenic dust sources from linked climate-vegetation modeling, suggesting dry, windy, and minimally vegetated areas in parts of the Great Plains during the last glacial period.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"GSA Bulletin","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"Geological Society of America","publisherLocation":"Boulder, CO","doi":"10.1130/B26222.1","usgsCitation":"Aleinikoff, J.N., Muhs, D.R., Bettis, E., Johnson, W.C., Fanning, C., and Benton, R., 2008, Isotopic evidence for the diversity of late Quaternary loess in Nebraska: Glaciogenic and nonglaciogenic sources: GSA Bulletin, v. 120, no. 11-12, p. 1362-1377, https://doi.org/10.1130/B26222.1.","productDescription":"16 p.","startPage":"1362","endPage":"1377","costCenters":[{"id":308,"text":"Geology and Environmental Change Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":257680,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":257671,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1130/B26222.1","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}}],"country":"United States","state":"Nebraska","volume":"120","issue":"11-12","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2008-11-07","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a3faee4b0c8380cd64718","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Aleinikoff, John N. 0000-0003-3494-6841 jaleinikoff@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3494-6841","contributorId":1478,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Aleinikoff","given":"John","email":"jaleinikoff@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"N.","affiliations":[{"id":171,"text":"Central Mineral and Environmental Resources Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":464813,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Muhs, Daniel R. 0000-0001-7449-251X dmuhs@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7449-251X","contributorId":1857,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Muhs","given":"Daniel","email":"dmuhs@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":218,"text":"Denver Federal Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":464814,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Bettis, E.

These included northern California, southern California, and the central and eastern United States. ENS is a \"one-stop shopping\" system that allows Internet users to subscribe to flexible and customizable notifications for earthquakes anywhere in the world. The customization capability allows users to define the what (magnitude threshold), the when (day and night thresholds), and the where (specific regions) for their notifications. Customization is achieved by employing a per-user based request profile, allowing the notifications to be tailored for each individual's requirements. Such earthquake-parameter-specific custom delivery was not possible with simple e-mail list-servers. Now that event and user profiles are in a structured query language (SQL) database, additional flexibility is possible. At the time of this writing, ENS had more than 114,000 subscribers, with more than 200,000 separate user profiles. On a typical day, more than 188,000 messages get sent to a variety of widely distributed users for a wide range of earthquake locations and magnitudes. The purpose of this article is to describe how ENS works, highlight the features it offers, and summarize plans for future developments.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Seismological Research Letters","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"Seismological Society of America","publisherLocation":"El Cerrito, CA","usgsCitation":"Wald, L.A., Wald, D.J., Schwarz, S., Presgrave, B., Earle, P.S., Martinez, E., and Oppenheimer, D., 2008, The USGS Earthquake Notification Service (ENS): Customizable notifications of earthquakes around the globe: Seismological Research Letters, v. 79, no. 1, p. 103-110.","productDescription":"8 p.","startPage":"103","endPage":"110","numberOfPages":"14","costCenters":[{"id":300,"text":"Geologic Hazards Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":204437,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":112436,"rank":100,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://srl.geoscienceworld.org/content/79/1/103.extract","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}}],"country":"United States","volume":"79","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505ba94fe4b08c986b322197","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Wald, Lisa A. 0000-0002-5467-0523 lisa@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5467-0523","contributorId":449,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wald","given":"Lisa","email":"lisa@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":300,"text":"Geologic Hazards Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":348137,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Wald, David J. 0000-0002-1454-4514 wald@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1454-4514","contributorId":795,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wald","given":"David","email":"wald@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":300,"text":"Geologic Hazards Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":348138,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Schwarz, Stan sschwarz@usgs.gov","contributorId":1114,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Schwarz","given":"Stan","email":"sschwarz@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":237,"text":"Earthquake Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":348140,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Presgrave, Bruce","contributorId":69702,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Presgrave","given":"Bruce","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348143,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Earle, Paul S. pearle@usgs.gov","contributorId":840,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Earle","given":"Paul","email":"pearle@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[{"id":300,"text":"Geologic Hazards Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":348139,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Martinez, Eric","contributorId":51445,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Martinez","given":"Eric","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348141,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Oppenheimer, David","contributorId":58323,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Oppenheimer","given":"David","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":348142,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}

Traps typically display low dip angles, gentle folds, and normal faults. Reservoirs, which range in age from fractured Mesozoic basement rocks to Holocene nonmarine rocks, are mainly Oligocene to Miocene sandstones from the uppermost slope and adjacent shelf of the San Joaquin Basin, shallow marine shelf sandstones mainly of Miocene age, and nonmarine sandstones and conglomerates mostly of Pliocene- Pleistocene age. Faults have relatively small vertical displacements. Map boundaries of the assessment unit are shown in figures 13.1 and 13.2; this assessment unit replaces the Southeast Stable Shelf play 1002 considered by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in its 1995 National Assessment (Beyer, 1996). Stratigraphically, the AU extends from the uppermost crystalline basement to the topographic surface (fig. 13.3). The AU is bounded on the west by the approximate location of the shelfslope break of the San Joaquin Basin in late Miocene time, thus excluding reservoirs in the deep-water Stevens sand of Eckis (1940). The eastern boundary of the AU is the edge of onlap of Neogene sedimentary sequences on crystalline basement rocks of the Sierra Nevada. The northern AU boundary is placed at the approximate northern extent of oils in shelf-facies reservoirs known to be sourced by the Miocene Total Petroleum System. This northern boundary explicitly excludes the Deer Creek and Jasmin fields, which were included in the corresponding earlier (1995) USGS play (Beyer, 1996), but which are now known to contain oil generated from Eocene source rocks. The White Wolf Fault bounds the AU on the south.","largerWorkType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"largerWorkTitle":"Petroleum systems and geologic assessment of oil and gas in the San Joaquin Basin Province, California (PP 1713)","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":5,"text":"USGS Numbered Series"},"language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/pp171313","usgsCitation":"Gautier, D.L., and Hosford Scheirer, A., 2008, Miocene Total Petroleum System -- Southeast Stable Shelf Assessment Unit of the San Joaquin Basin Province: Chapter 13 in <i>Petroleum systems and geologic assessment of oil and gas in the San Joaquin Basin Province, California</i>: U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 1713-13, Chapter 13: 19 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/pp171313.","productDescription":"Chapter 13: 19 p.","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","costCenters":[{"id":255,"text":"Energy Resources Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":266956,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/pp_1713_13.jpg"},{"id":266954,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/pp1713/","text":"Index Page","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}},{"id":266955,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/pp1713/13/pp1713_ch13.pdf","text":"Report","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"country":"United States","state":"California","otherGeospatial":"San Joaquin Basin","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -121.75,34.75 ], [ -121.75,38.0 ], [ -118.75,38.0 ], [ -118.75,34.75 ], [ -121.75,34.75 ] ] ] } } ] }","publicComments":"This report is Chapter 13 in <i>Petroleum systems and geologic assessment of oil and gas in the San Joaquin Basin Province, California</i>.
