The northern Gulf is topographically complex and is a rich source of oil and gas deposits, which has led to a great deal of research on benthic ecosystems from the coastal zone to the deep sea. While not fully explored, the distribution of cold seeps and deep corals in the northern Gulf is reasonably well described. The eastern Gulf has a moratorium on energy industry development and consequently less exploration and research has been conducted in this region; however, recent explorations have revealed deep scleractinian reefs on the west Florida slope and extensive octocoral gardens on the deep escarpment. The Gulf is a productive sea with lucrative fisheries in addition to oil and gas. Exploitation of natural resources and potential climate change impacts threaten vulnerable ecosystems in the Gulf, including those in the deep sea. This chapter describes the oceanography and geology of the Gulf of Mexico, presents the current state of the knowledge of cold-water coral distribution, physiology and ecology, and provides an assessment of the threats to these vulnerable ecosystems.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Cold-water coral reefs of the

Accordingly, a firm understanding of species movement ecology is often foundational to effective management and conservation. However, despite movement being an inherently individual-level behavior, there remains a tendency to describe dispersal and migration patterns using simple population-level processes and effects. Overlooking within- and among-individual variation in movement risks incomplete understanding of the intrinsic and extrinsic factors that govern dispersal dynamics and could potentially result in inadequate management of critical behavioral phenotypes. In this study, we monitored movement of over 100 brook trout (</span><i>Salvelinus fontinalis</i><span>) and quantified the effect of individual-level traits, season, and their interactions to better understand factors that influence vagility. Our results suggest that movement was higher in fall than in summer, particularly for fish in poor condition. But we found no significant main effects for sex, providing no evidence for sex-biased dispersal. To better understand sources of individual variation, we also allowed for sex- and season-specific residual standard deviations. In doing so, we found that, on average, movement was more variable in fall compared to summer, and that females were more variable than males in vagility. Taken together, these results demonstrate how intrinsic, individual-level traits can interact with abiotic environmental conditions to determine movement. They also highlight the potential for simple explanations of movement ecology to overlook important traits that may help predict individual-level behaviors.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer Link","doi":"10.1007/s10641-023-01501-2","usgsCitation":"White, S.L., Keagy, J., Batchelor, S., Langlois, J., Thomas, N., and Wagner, T., 2023, Movement beyond the mean: decoupling sources of individual variation in brook trout movement across seasons: Environmental Biology of Fishes, v. 106, p. 2205-2218, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10641-023-01501-2.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"2205","endPage":"2218","ipdsId":"IP-154899","costCenters":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":433386,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Pennsylvania","otherGeospatial":"Loyalsock Creek","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -77.06519870933498,\n              41.59744767846257\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.06519870933498,\n              40.982390970848996\n            ],\n            [\n              -76.5874262429697,\n              40.982390970848996\n            ],\n            [\n              -76.5874262429697,\n              41.59744767846257\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.06519870933498,\n              41.59744767846257\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"106","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2023-12-27","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"White, Shannon L. 0000-0003-4687-6596","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4687-6596","contributorId":263424,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"White","given":"Shannon","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":365,"text":"Leetown Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":910280,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Keagy, Jason","contributorId":342684,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Keagy","given":"Jason","affiliations":[{"id":6738,"text":"The Pennsylvania State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":910281,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Batchelor, Sarah","contributorId":342686,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Batchelor","given":"Sarah","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":6738,"text":"The Pennsylvania State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":910282,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Langlois, Julia","contributorId":342688,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Langlois","given":"Julia","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":6738,"text":"The Pennsylvania State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":910283,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Thomas, Natalie","contributorId":342690,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Thomas","given":"Natalie","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":6738,"text":"The Pennsylvania State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":910284,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Wagner, Tyler 0000-0003-1726-016X twagner@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1726-016X","contributorId":1050,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wagner","given":"Tyler","email":"twagner@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":910285,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

Recent studies in the region suggest that Golden Eagles may be more widely distributed than previously recognized. For species specific conservation efforts to be effective, an understanding of the distribution of the species is essential. Thus, the goal of this study was to map the winter distribution of Golden Eagles in the eastern half of the USA. To accomplish this, we reviewed and compiled 11,981 Golden Eagle records from eight data sources, including literature and ornithology records, community science data, survey data, and telemetry data. We found that Golden Eagles were observed in winter in each of the 31 states that lie completely east of the 100th meridian and in 1244 of the 2045 counties (61%) in those states. The proportion of counties with records varied by physiographic province, with higher proportions in physiographic provinces with more rugged terrain and greater forest cover. Our study shows that Golden Eagles are more widely distributed during winter in eastern USA states than was previously recognized. This work provides an important foundation for future management and research at a time when threats to this species are expanding rapidly on the landscape.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"BioOne","doi":"10.3356/JRR-23-00012","usgsCitation":"Miller, T., Lanzone, M., Braham, M., Adam Duerr, Cooper, J., Somershoe, S., Hanni, D., Soehren,

On average, more than 12 billion gallons are withdrawn daily from the Mississippi River Valley alluvial aquifer. Declining groundwater levels, especially in the Delta region of northwest Mississippi and the Cache and Grand Prairie regions of eastern Arkansas, have led to concerns about future sustainability. The U.S. Geological Survey Mississippi Alluvial Plain Project is focused on quantifying the groundwater system in the alluvial plain and the response of groundwater resources to future development. A key objective of the project is to provide updated groundwater flow models supported by extensive data collection and analyses. MODFLOW 6, PEST++, and several open-source python packages were used to develop a simplified, faster running version of the Mississippi Embayment Regional Aquifer Study model that can provide boundary conditions for local inset models, including the Mississippi Delta model described in this report. An automated workflow was used for model construction, history matching, and development of baseline future climate scenarios. The models incorporate information from a Soil-Water-Balance code simulation of the terrestrial water balance, metering-based estimates of water use from thousands of wells, measured and estimated streamflow and stages, and the largest airborne electromagnetic survey flown to date in the United States. Baseline scenarios for the Mississippi Delta under potential future climates were constructed using recharge, surface runoff and irrigation pumping forcings from a future version of the Soil-Water-Balance model, driven by downscaled temperature and precipitation output from 10 general circulation model simulations, including high and moderate carbon emissions pathways.</p><p>Results indicate a complex water balance that varies in time and space in terms of the terrestrial recharge, stream leakage, and regional groundwater flow components, which are affected by seasonal forcings, human activity, and alluvial geomorphology. The general circulation model outputs indicate a continued rise in average temperatures but no clear precipitation trend. Increased crop water demand is anticipated from the higher temperatures, resulting in increased irrigation withdrawals to sustain current levels of irrigated agriculture. Simulated drawdowns in groundwater levels at the mid-21st century vary greatly. Under moderate or wet climate scenarios, and in parts of the aquifer that are well connected to surface water, little to no additional drawdown is anticipated. Under dry or warm scenarios, drawdowns of as much as 10 meters or more are possible in parts of the aquifer that are relatively disconnected from surface water. Under dry or warm scenarios, the portion of the Delta with greater than 60 feet of saturated thickness could be reduced from near 100 percent currently (2018) to 80–90 percent by mid-century. Future simulations with the model could include alternative management scenarios to identify options for improving groundwater sustainability. The automated model construction workflows are designed to facilitate regular updating, making this a “living” framework that the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality and other stakeholders can use for adaptive management going forward.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sir20235100","programNote":"Water Use and Availability Science Program","usgsCitation":"Leaf, A.T., Duncan, L.L., Haugh, C.J., Hunt, R.J., and Rigby, J.R., 2023, Simulating groundwater flow in the Mississippi Alluvial Plain with a focus on the Mississippi Delta: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2023–5100, 143 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20235100.","productDescription":"Report: viii, 143 p.;

Although complex biophysical interactions likely govern these ecosystem transitions, projections of sea level driven land conversion commonly rely on a simplified “threshold elevation” that represents the elevation of the marsh-upland boundary based on tidal datums alone. To determine the influence of biophysical drivers on threshold elevations, and their implication for land conversion, we examined almost 100,000 high-resolution marsh-forest boundary elevation points, determined independently from tidal datums, alongside hydrologic, ecologic, and geomorphic data in the Chesapeake Bay, the largest estuary in the U.S. located along the mid-Atlantic coast. We find five-fold variations in threshold elevation across the entire estuary, driven not only by tidal range, but also salinity and slope. However, more than half of the variability is unexplained by these variables, which we attribute largely to uncaptured local factors including groundwater discharge, microtopography, and anthropogenic impacts. In the Chesapeake Bay, observed threshold elevations deviate from predicted elevations used to determine sea level driven land conversion by as much as the amount of projected regional sea level rise by 2050. These results suggest that local drivers strongly mediate coastal ecosystem transitions, and that predictions based on elevation and tidal datums alone may misrepresent future land conversion.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"American Geophysical Union","doi":"10.1029/2023JG007525","usgsCitation":"Molino, G., Carr, J., Ganju, N., and Kirwan, M., 2023, Biophysical drivers of coastal treeline elevation: JGR Biogeosciences, v. 128, no. 12, e2023JG007525, 18 p., https://doi.org/10.1029/2023JG007525.","productDescription":"e2023JG007525, 18 p.","ipdsId":"IP-152726","costCenters":[{"id":678,"text":"Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":441370,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1029/2023jg007525","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":424278,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Delaware, Maryland, Virginia","otherGeospatial":"Chesapeake Bay area","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -76.8511875475028,\n              39.673022111699964\n            ],\n            [\n              -76.8511875475028,\n              36.994029518343055\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.03985116290059,\n              36.994029518343055\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.03985116290059,\n              39.673022111699964\n            ],\n            [\n              -76.8511875475028,\n              39.673022111699964\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"128","issue":"12","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2023-12-22","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Molino, Grace 0000-0001-7345-8619","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7345-8619","contributorId":292186,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Molino","given":"Grace","affiliations":[{"id":6708,"text":"Virginia Institute of Marine Science","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":891909,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Carr, Joel A. 0000-0002-9164-4156 jcarr@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9164-4156","contributorId":168645,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Carr","given":"Joel A.","email":"jcarr@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":891910,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Ganju, Neil K. 0000-0002-1096-0465","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1096-0465","contributorId":202878,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ganju","given":"Neil K.","affiliations":[{"id":678,"text":"Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":891911,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Kirwan, Mathew 0000-0002-0658-3038","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0658-3038","contributorId":333093,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kirwan","given":"Mathew","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":6708,"text":"Virginia Institute of Marine Science","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":891912,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

Scientists from across the USGS (with specialties in water quantity, water quality, limnology, avian biology, data science, landscape ecology, and science communication) formed the Saline Lake Ecosystems IWAAs Team. The team has developed this regional strategic science plan to guide data collection and assessment activities at terminal lakes in the Great Basin.</p><p>The U.S. Congress requested the USGS to establish the Saline Lake Ecosystems IWAAs in response to historically low water levels at terminal lakes and associated wetlands across the Great Basin. Not all Great Basin terminal lakes have high salinity; however, all terminal lakes occur in endorheic, closed, basins with no surface-water outflow. Low lake levels across the Great Basin are the result of increased water use for agriculture and municipalities, drought conditions, and a warming climate. Great Basin terminal lake water extents have decreased by as much as 90 percent over the last 150 years, and terminal lake wetlands have decreased in area by as much as 47 percent since 1984. Lake elevations and wetland areas are primarily supported by freshwater inputs from snowmelt feeding upgradient rivers, streams, and springs. These freshwater inputs have been severely reduced because of continued and increased surface-water diversions and surface-water capture through groundwater pumping for agriculture, mining, and public supply as well as unprecedented drought conditions and warming temperatures related to climate change.</p><p>Water quality, specifically salinity, is highly variable for terminal lakes of the Great Basin, and this variability is a result of the balance between freshwater inflow and evaporation. Variability of salinity at each of the terminal lakes can be affected by lake morphology, hydrogeologic features of the basin, annual variability in weather patterns, and changes in upgradient water use. Hypersaline terminal lakes provide abundant food resources such as brine shrimp and brine flies that support nesting and migrating birds. The density and composition of invertebrates are closely tied to lake salinity. Increased salinity can exceed the tolerance of invertebrates, severely limiting their biomass. In contrast, decreased salinity can lead to altered invertebrate community composition, reducing the abundance of optimal avian prey resources.</p><p>Great Basin terminal lake ecosystems, including open-water and adjacent aquatic and terrestrial environments, provide resources necessary to sustain many animal populations throughout the year. Although a variety of taxa use terminal lakes, these ecosystems are of acute importance for the millions of migratory waterbirds (for example, shorebirds, wading birds, and waterfowl) dependent on the network of terminal lakes and their associated wetlands. Migratory birds transiting the Pacific and Central Flyways use Great Basin terminal lake ecosystems throughout the year to feed, nest, and transit between wintering and breeding ranges. As such, successful conservation of birds and their habitats requires coordinated management of water and habitats across the Great Basin network of terminal lakes and wetlands.</p><p>The linkages between water availability and ecosystem vulnerability of terminal lakes in the Great Basin are not well understood. The vulnerability of terminal lakes is related to the factors driving change and adaptive capacity of the lake ecosystem. Saline lake ecosystems are vulnerable when changes in water quantity affect ecosystem function. Water quantity affects salinity, which affects food webs and habitat; these linkages can be investigated with water-quality and food web monitoring. Water quantity also affects inundated habitat, which can be quantified through remote sensing. It is necessary to quantify hydroclimatic and water use controls on water availability to terminal lakes to assess the response of the ecosystems. Remotely sensed data can provide a broad-scale and long-term synoptic view of terminal lake hydrologic characteristics, but ground observations are required to interpret changes in water quality and ecological functions. Some terminal lake basins have ongoing monitoring and modeling efforts within the Great Basin (for example, Great Salt Lake, Carson River Basin), yet most monitoring locations are hydrologically upgradient and too far away from lake inflows to provide an accurate assessment of hydrological trends for the lake ecosystems. Other terminal lakes have no long-term hydrological monitoring in their respective watersheds (for example, Lake Abert).</p><p>Ecological data collection in the Great Basin is also insufficient to understand how many birds exist on the landscape, how birds use the mosaic of terminal-lake habitats as an interconnected system, and how Great Basin terminal lakes are linked to the larger continental system of the Pacific and Central Flyways. Across agencies and organizations, tracking bird movement, abundance, and diversity is inconsistent, with some lakes having once- or twice-a-year bird survey efforts and a few locations having more intensive ecological data-gathering efforts (for example, Great Salt Lake, Lake Abert). Bridging hydrological and ecological information gaps will improve understanding of the trends in water supply and water quality, habitat availability and usage, and impacts on vulnerable waterbird species, all of which would be used by managers in coordinated conservation of this unique network of terminal-lake habitats.</p><p>The terminal lakes of the Great Basin are part of the Basin and Range physiographic province that extends from the Colorado Plateau on the east to the Sierra Nevada on the west, and from the Snake River Plain on the north to the Garlock fault and the Mojave block on the south. The Great Basin is larger than 650,000 square kilometers and encompasses most of the State of Nevada but also extends to western Utah, eastern California, southeastern Idaho, southwestern Wyoming, and southeastern Oregon. The climate is arid to semiarid with a hydrologic regime that is snowmelt dominated, providing as much as 75 percent of total annual runoff for the region. Terminal lakes of the Great Basin occupy the lowest areas of closed (endorheic) drainage basins, such that lake levels and water quality respond rapidly to surface-water inflow. Terminal lakes provide local and regional economic value to the States in the Great Basin, including mineral extraction, aquaculture, public works, and recreational uses. As an example, assessments of Great Salt Lake’s ecological health and economic impact find hemispheric importance for the former and regional importance for the latter. Great Salt Lake creates about 7,000 jobs and $2 billion of economic output per year, most of which would be lost with further declines in lake level.</p><p>The objectives of this Science Strategy are threefold: (1) to identify how changing water availability affects the quality, diversity, and abundance of habitats supporting continental waterbird populations; (2) to highlight the scientific monitoring and assessment needs of Great Basin terminal lakes; and (3) to support coordinated management and conservation actions to benefit those ecosystems, migratory birds, and other wildlife. There are long-term hydrological, ecological, and societal challenges associated with terminal lakes ecosystems in the Great Basin. This Science Strategy benefits partners by providing a conceptual model, nested at different spatial extents, that identifies key scientific information needs to inform coordinated implementation of management and conservation plans within and among hydrologic basins to address these complex challenges.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston,

Extensive taxonomic analysis of the macrofauna has been done for over 100 years. However, documentation of the microfossil component at the type-locality has largely been ignored. This paper provides analysis of calcareous microfossils (benthic and planktonic foraminifera, calcareous nannofossils and ostracods) and palynomorphs (pollen, spores, algal remains and dinoflagellates) for detailed age control and information regarding environment of deposition. The Coon Creek type-locality is late Campanian (76.8–76.0 Ma) in age and was deposited in 35–60 m water depths. Calcareous nannofossil assemblages suggest that there was an influence of colder water through time, possibly by a connection to the northern Western Interior Seaway. The complex interplay between currents of the Gulf of Mexico and the Western Interior Seaway, upwelling and runoff influenced the palaeoenvironment. Increased influx of freshwater palynomorphs near the top of the section suggests placement proximal to the palaeoshoreline and that weathering increased through time. Changes in the dinoflagellate assemblage may be linked to a mosasaur mass mortality event and the presence of a harmful algal bloom.</div></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Geological Society, London","doi":"10.1144/SP545-2023-137","usgsCitation":"Self-Trail, J., Gardner, K.F., O’Keefe, J.M., Mason, P.H., Puckett, M., Gibson, M.A., and McCarty, M., 2023, Microfossils and biostratigraphy of the Upper Cretaceous Coon Creek Formation Lagerstätte, Mississippi Embayment, USA: Geological Society, London, Special Publications, v. 545, 22 p., https://doi.org/10.1144/SP545-2023-137.","productDescription":"22 p.","ipdsId":"IP-155094","costCenters":[{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":40020,"text":"Florence Bascom Geoscience Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":424063,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Tennessee","county":"McNairy County","geographicExtents":"{\"type\":\"FeatureCollection\",\"features\":[{\"type\":\"Feature\",\"geometry\":{\"type\":\"Polygon\",\"coordinates\":[[[-88.3641,35.3852],[-88.3638,35.3738],[-88.3642,35.3675],[-88.3653,35.3148],[-88.3755,35.3141],[-88.3763,35.3041],[-88.3776,35.2909],[-88.3686,35.2906],[-88.3722,35.1734],[-88.3798,34.9982],[-88.4123,34.9983],[-88.5458,34.9979],[-88.6689,34.9975],[-88.7867,34.9972],[-88.7849,35.133],[-88.7846,35.2475],[-88.7192,35.2477],[-88.7162,35.2582],[-88.7072,35.2579],[-88.7081,35.2637],[-88.6908,35.3056],[-88.6393,35.3038],[-88.6396,35.3138],[-88.6399,35.3184],[-88.6608,35.3204],[-88.6674,35.3405],[-88.6197,35.3675],[-88.5773,35.3812],[-88.5267,35.3863],[-88.3724,35.38],[-88.3726,35.385],[-88.3641,35.3852]]]},\"properties\":{\"name\":\"McNairy\",\"state\":\"TN\"}}]}","volume":"545","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2023-12-22","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Self-Trail, Jean 0000-0002-3018-4985 jstrail@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3018-4985","contributorId":147370,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Self-Trail","given":"Jean","email":"jstrail@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":40020,"text":"Florence Bascom Geoscience Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":891272,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Gardner, Kristina Frank 0000-0001-9872-9294","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9872-9294","contributorId":297849,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Gardner","given":"Kristina","email":"","middleInitial":"Frank","affiliations":[{"id":40020,"text":"Florence Bascom Geoscience Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":891273,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"O’Keefe, Jennifer M K","contributorId":200148,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"O’Keefe","given":"Jennifer","email":"","middleInitial":"M K","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":891274,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Mason, Patricia H.","contributorId":332897,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Mason","given":"Patricia","email":"","middleInitial":"H.","affiliations":[{"id":24668,"text":"University of North Carolina, Wilmington","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":891275,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Puckett, Mark","contributorId":317218,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Puckett","given":"Mark","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":891276,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Gibson, Michael A.","contributorId":332898,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Gibson","given":"Michael","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":12716,"text":"University of Tennessee","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":891277,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"McCarty, Maeve","contributorId":317219,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"McCarty","given":"Maeve","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":891278,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}

The area consists of karst and siliciclastic aquifers of Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian, and Mississippian age and is in parts of two physiographic provinces: the Valley and Ridge Province to the east of Peters Mountain, and the Appalachian Plateau Province to the west of Peters Mountain. This study was developed in response to inquiries from the Monroe County Commission requesting assessment of the water resources of the county to better understand the quantity of the county’s groundwater resources, for both current [2023] and future demand, and to provide information to support protection and management of the county’s valuable groundwater resources.</p><p>Various products were developed for this study that provide knowledge with respect to water availability and contamination susceptibility of the karst aquifers within the county. U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) geologists conducted extensive geologic mapping in support of the project, producing (1) a countywide bedrock geologic map, (2) a countywide hydrogeologic map, and (3) a light detection and ranging (lidar)-derived countywide digital elevation model and associated sinkhole map. A significant part of this work was to map in detail the Greenbrier Group at the formation level, which prior to this study had only partially been completed. The report also includes (4) a description of the lithologic units identified as part of the geologic mapping process.</p><p>U.S. Geological Survey hydrologists completed several additional products for the hydrology part of the effort, including development of (1) a countywide potentiometric surface (water-table) map, (2) a countywide base-flow stream assessment, (3) countywide water-budget estimates, (4) well log surveys for 15 wells to better understand subsurface controls on groundwater flow within the study area, (5) two groundwater tracer tests to better refine the groundwater divide from the northern and southern parts of the karst aquifer in Monroe County; and finally, based on all available data collected for the study including the potentiometric surface map, geologic map, current [2023] and legacy fluorometric groundwater tracer tests, and base-flow stream assessments, (6) groundwater-basin delineations were reassessed for principal groundwater basins within the Greenbrier aquifer.</p><p>In Monroe County, four principal hydrogeologic settings produce large yields of water for residential, agricultural, and other uses. The most relied upon water-bearing zone with respect to current [2023] public water supply is from springs along Peters Mountain. These springs are derived from intervals of fractured sandstone and resultant alluvial deposits. Groundwater flows downslope through these permeable alluvial deposits and discharges at the contact with less permeable strata, such as the Reedsville Shale. The second most relied upon water-bearing zone in Monroe County is within the karstic Greenbrier Group aquifer, in which the basal Hillsdale Limestone overlies the less permeable Maccrady Shale. This geologic contact between the Hillsdale Limestone and Maccrady Shale is not only targeted as a source of water for agricultural supply but also is targeted as a source of water for residential supply. The third most relied upon water-bearing zone is composed of shallow perched aquifers within the Greenbrier Group. The discontinuous nature of these perched aquifers makes mapping their extent impossible, but they are related to permeable geologic strata, such as karstified limestones with solutionally enhanced permeability that overlies less permeable shale or chert bedrock. During geologic mapping of the county, several of these perched aquifers were documented in the Pickaway, Union, and Alderson Limestones. A fourth zone consists of springs from Ordovician carbonates at the base of Peters Mountain, which are influenced by sinking streams as well as upwelling along faults. In terms of water quantity, the most sustainable springs are those having deeper-sourced flows.</p><p>Public supplies are a principal source of water used for residential and commercial supply in the region, accounting for 0.49 million gallons per day (Mgal/d) of fresh-water withdrawals (0.14 Mgal/d of groundwater and 0.35 Mgal/d of surface water) for residential and commercial use and serving 6,645 individuals (49.2 percent of the population). An estimated 6,861 people, (50.8 percent of the population) primarily rely on private wells or other unregulated sources, such as springs, and withdraw 0.55 Mgal/d of groundwater for their residential use. Public water supply in the region is primarily (71.4 percent) derived from springs and augmented by stream withdrawals (backup sources mainly during low-flow periods), with the remaining portion (28.6 percent) derived from groundwater withdrawals from wells. For rural residents, however, 100 percent of their withdrawals are derived from groundwater (wells or springs).</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological

However, most studies producing SDMs rely on sparse species occurrence datasets from herbarium records and public databases, along with random pseudoabsences. While environmental covariates used to fit SDMS are increasingly precise due to satellite data, the availability of species occurrence records is still a large source of bias in model predictions. We developed distribution models for hybridizing sister species of western and eastern Joshua trees (<i>Yucca brevifolia</i><span>&nbsp;</span>and<span>&nbsp;</span><i>Y. jaegeriana</i>, respectively), iconic Mojave Desert species that are threatened by climate change and habitat loss.</p><p><strong>Methods:</strong><span>&nbsp;</span>We conducted an intensive visual grid search of online satellite imagery for 672,043 0.25 km<sup>2</sup><span>&nbsp;</span>grid cells to identify the two species' presences and absences on the landscape with exceptional resolution, and field validated 29,050 cells in 15,001 km of driving. We used the resulting presence/absence data to train SDMs for each Joshua tree species, revealing the contemporary environmental gradients (during the past 40 years) with greatest influence on the current distribution of adult trees.</p><p><strong>Results:</strong><span>&nbsp;</span>While the environments occupied by<span>&nbsp;</span><i>Y. brevifolia</i><span>&nbsp;</span>and<span>&nbsp;</span><i>Y. jaegeriana</i><span>&nbsp;</span>were similar in total aridity, they differed with respect to seasonal precipitation and temperature ranges, suggesting the two species may have differing responses to climate change. Moreover, the species showed differing potential to occupy each other's geographic ranges: modeled potential habitat for<span>&nbsp;</span><i>Y. jaegeriana</i><span>&nbsp;</span>extends throughout the range of<span>&nbsp;</span><i>Y. brevifolia</i>, while potential habitat for<span>&nbsp;</span><i>Y. brevifolia</i><span>&nbsp;</span>is not well represented within the range of<span>&nbsp;</span><i>Y. jaegeriana</i>.</p><p><strong>Discussion:</strong><span>&nbsp;</span>By reproducing the current range of the Joshua trees with high fidelity, our dataset can serve as a baseline for future research, monitoring, and management of this species, including an increased understanding of dynamics at the trailing and leading margins of the species' ranges and potential for climate refugia.</p></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Frontiers","doi":"10.3389/fevo.2023.1266892","usgsCitation":"Esque, T., Shryock, D., Berr, G.A., Chen, F., DeFalco, L., Lewicki, S.M.,

However, many of these models are based on statistical relationships developed from historical conditions that may not perform well under changing or even analogous conditions caused by climate change. In this paper, we used a mechanistic species distribution model called GR3D (Global Repositioning Dynamics for Diadromous Fish Distribution) to examine the integrated dynamics of American shad (<i>Alosa sapidissima</i>) populations across their native range along the Eastern U.S. coast, where the species demonstrates latitudinal variations in life histories and reproductive strategies. The initial design of the model was adapted to incorporate region-specific parameterization to fit the species ecology. Then, a sensitivity analysis was performed to test the influences of uncertain processes regarding American shad distribution at sea, straying and reproduction on key characteristics of the species distribution. The sensitivity analysis showed the influence of the Allee effect (i.e., “depensatory” process) and the homing rate (i.e., fidelity to the breeding sites) on the probability of presence and abundances among catchments and metapopulations estimated by the model. Contrary to the homing rate, the distance of straying did not change the estimated number of metapopulations or abundances. Homing strength, however, was quite influential. The integration of complex migration patterns during the marine phase (i.e., wintering and summering offshore areas) provided more likely estimates of the species' overall distribution. Overall, our study illustrated the utility of incorporating factors governing the large-scale distribution of migratory species to improve local management.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Ecological Society of America","doi":"10.1002/ecs2.4712","usgsCitation":"Poulet, C., Lassalle, G., Jordaan, A., Limburg, K., Nack, C.C.,

This is particularly true for species with divergent demographic patterns across large geographic areas. The contrasting abundance trends observed across the range of Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus) have been studied extensively, with research suggesting that the primary drivers of localized population dynamics vary over time and space. We developed a Bayesian integrated population model for the endangered western distinct population segment of Steller sea lions that combines mark-recapture and count data from 2000-2021 to estimate demographic rates, abundance trends, and the effects of environmental variability on population growth. Our results highlight subregional demographic differences, including reduced pup survival in the central Aleutian Islands and reduced yearling survival west of Samalga Pass. Range-wide abundance increased by 1.7% yr-1 (95% credible interval: 0.14; 3.4%) over the study period, with a positive annual growth rate of 3.0% (1.1; 5.1%) yr-1 east of Samalga Pass, a negative growth rate of -2.1% (-4.6; 0.5%) yr-1 west of Samalga Pass, and an overall low probability of local extirpation (<2%) in 100 years even in subregions experiencing continued decline. The effect of environmental variability on population growth varied depending on subpopulation size and vital rates and was strongest in the area of greatest decline. Our model improves upon existing approaches for estimating abundance, accounts for environmental variability within the viability analysis, and can facilitate evaluating the efficacy of conservation actions and progress toward recovery goals.","language":"English","publisher":"Inter-Research","doi":"10.3354/esr01282","usgsCitation":"Warlick, A., Johnson, D., Sweeney, K., Gelatt, T., and Converse, S.J., 2023, Examining the effect of environmental variability on the viability of endangered Steller sea lions using an integrated population model: Endangered Species Research, v. 52, p. 343-361, https://doi.org/10.3354/esr01282.","productDescription":"19 p.","startPage":"343","endPage":"361","ipdsId":"IP-151798","costCenters":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":487889,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.3354/esr01282","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":485208,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Alaska","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -192.3038114894406,\n              57.51067207764723\n            ],\n            [\n              -192.3038114894406,\n              51.43442138881829\n            ],\n            [\n              -154.88087376804862,\n              51.43442138881829\n            ],\n            [\n              -154.88087376804862,\n              57.51067207764723\n            ],\n            [\n              -192.3038114894406,\n              57.51067207764723\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"52","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Warlick, Amanda J.","contributorId":353988,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Warlick","given":"Amanda J.","affiliations":[{"id":6934,"text":"University of Washington","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":934927,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Johnson, Devin S.","contributorId":353989,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Johnson","given":"Devin S.","affiliations":[{"id":36612,"text":"National Marine Fisheries Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":934928,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Sweeney, Katie L.","contributorId":353990,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Sweeney","given":"Katie L.","affiliations":[{"id":36612,"text":"National Marine Fisheries Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":934929,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Gelatt, Tom S.","contributorId":353991,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Gelatt","given":"Tom S.","affiliations":[{"id":36612,"text":"National Marine Fisheries Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":934930,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Converse, Sarah J. 0000-0002-3719-5441 sconverse@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3719-5441","contributorId":173772,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Converse","given":"Sarah","email":"sconverse@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":934931,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

We applied a capture-mark-recapture model to 17 years (1997–2013) of live trapping data to estimate species-specific abundances. The big-eared woodrat was the most frequently captured species in the area, contributing 58% of total captures. All small mammal populations exhibited seasonal fluctuations, whereas those of the California mouse, brush mouse, and pinyon mouse declined during the study period. We also applied a multispecies dynamic occupancy model to our small mammal detection history data to estimate species richness, occupancy ( ), detection (p), local extinction ( ), and colonization ( ) probabilities, and to discern factors affecting these parameters. We found that decreased from 0.369 ± 0.088 in 1997 to 0.248 ± 0.054 in 2013; was lower during the dry season (May–September) than the wet season (October–April) and was positively influenced by total seasonal rainfall (slope parameter,  = 0.859 ± 0.371; 95% CI = 0.132–1.587). Mean mammalian species richness decreased from 11.943 ± 0.461 in 1997 to 7.185 ± 0.425 in 2013. With highly variable climatic patterns expected in the future, especially increased frequency and intensity of droughts, it is important to monitor small mammal communities inhabiting threatened California oak woodlands.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/ece3.10611","usgsCitation":"Ghimirey, Y.P., Tietje, W.D., Polyakov, A.Y., Hines, J.E., and Oli, M.K., 2023, Decline in small mammal species richness in coastal-central California, 1997–2013: Ecology and Evolution, v. 13, no. 12, e10611, 11 p., https://doi.org/10.1002/ece3.10611.","productDescription":"e10611, 11 p.","ipdsId":"IP-157415","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":441442,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/ece3.10611","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":423789,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","otherGeospatial":"Camp Roberts","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -120.94253263683494,\n              35.90849811107087\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.94253263683494,\n              35.64500150778204\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.60126981945214,\n              35.64500150778204\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.60126981945214,\n              35.90849811107087\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.94253263683494,\n              35.90849811107087\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"13","issue":"12","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2023-12-10","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Ghimirey, Yadav P.","contributorId":332600,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Ghimirey","given":"Yadav","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":79505,"text":"Univ. of FL","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":890598,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Tietje, William D.","contributorId":332601,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Tietje","given":"William","email":"","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[{"id":79506,"text":"Friends of Nature, Nepal","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":890599,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Polyakov, Anne Y.","contributorId":332602,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Polyakov","given":"Anne","email":"","middleInitial":"Y.","affiliations":[{"id":79507,"text":"Univ. of CA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":890600,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Hines, James E. 0000-0001-5478-7230 jhines@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5478-7230","contributorId":146530,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hines","given":"James","email":"jhines@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":890601,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Oli, Madan K. 0000-0001-6944-0061","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6944-0061","contributorId":201302,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Oli","given":"Madan","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[{"id":13453,"text":"University of Florida, Gainesville, FL","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":890602,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

Despite many negative consequences, barriers can serve to protect native species by limiting the spread of&nbsp;invasive species. For example, in the Laurentian Great Lakes, physical barriers have long been used to control invasive&nbsp;sea lamprey&nbsp;(</span><i>Petromyzon marinus</i><span>) populations by limiting access to potential upstream spawning and rearing habitat. Selective fish passage systems could solve this management trade-off, termed the “connectivity conundrum”, but must efficiently pass multiple native or desirable species while blocking invasive species. Designing such fish passage systems requires an understanding of the attribute dimensions of the fish community, specifically, the&nbsp;phenology, morphology, physiology, and behaviour of each species. Here, we describe the first comprehensive collection of sortable attributes associated with fish passage. The integrated database consists of 21 biological attributes that influence the movement and passage of 220 species in the Great Lakes, including native species, established non-native species, and unestablished but potentially invasive fishes. Data coverage varies with species, taxonomic orders, and attribute dimensions. Behavioural attributes were typically underrepresented in the literature, and the ecology of potential invaders was not well understood. The synthesis described herein is a critical step towards a holistic approach to fish passage design and may help to inform management actions related to population connectivity. The database is openly accessible online and is expected to be updated periodically.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.jglr.2023.08.006","usgsCitation":"Benoit,

The map represents a new compilation of the surficial geology that encompasses deposits within the late Pliocene to Quaternary. The map is based primarily on new mapping conducted between 2001 and 2009. Map compilation was supported by field observations distributed across the map area, combined with reference to several published and unpublished mapping sources that mostly emphasized neotectonic deformation. The surficial-deposit units included in the map follow a classification scheme that systematically denotes depositional process, relative age, and any secondary sedimentologic or morphologic characteristics. Identification, correlation, and age estimation of map units are based primarily on the relative degree of development of certain time-dependent characteristics such as surface morphology, including local dissection and surface preservation, surface clast modification, and degree of soil development; these characteristics are implicitly incorporated into unit designations. The map represents a detailed and regionally uniform synthesis of the late Neogene geology for this large area that provides a framework applicable to many interpretative studies, such as regional patterns of deposition and dissection; surface drainage development and evolution; and the distribution, style, and timing of neotectonic deformation.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sim3496","usgsCitation":"Menges, C.M., and Cossette, P.M., 2023, Surficial geologic map of the Owlshead Mountains 30' x 60' quadrangle, Inyo and San Bernardino Counties, California: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Map 3496, pamphlet 46 p., 2 sheets, 1:62,500, https://doi.org/10.3133/sim3496.","productDescription":"Report: iv, 46 p.; 2 Sheet: 59.92 × 42.54 inches and 50.57 × 30.83 inches; Database; Data Release","numberOfPages":"46","onlineOnly":"Y","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","ipdsId":"IP-107100","costCenters":[{"id":312,"text":"Geology, Minerals, Energy, and Geophysics Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":500199,"rank":6,"type":{"id":36,"text":"NGMDB Index Page"},"url":"https://ngmdb.usgs.gov/Prodesc/proddesc_115656.htm","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}},{"id":423113,"rank":5,"type":{"id":9,"text":"Database"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sim/3496/sim3496_database.zip","text":"Database","size":"140 MB","linkFileType":{"id":6,"text":"zip"}},{"id":423112,"rank":4,"type":{"id":26,"text":"Sheet"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sim/3496/sim3496_sheet2.pdf","text":"Sheet 2","size":"1 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":423109,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sim/3496/covrthb_.jpg"},{"id":423110,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sim/3496/sim3496_pamphlet.pdf","text":"Pamphlet","size":"8 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":423111,"rank":3,"type":{"id":26,"text":"Sheet"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sim/3496/sim3496_sheet1.pdf","text":"Sheet 1","size":"26 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"country":"United States","state":"California","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -117.00,\n              36.00\n            ],\n            [\n              -117.00,\n              35.30\n            ],\n            [\n              -116.00,\n              35.30\n            ],\n            [\n              -116.00,\n              36.00\n            ],\n            [\n              -117.00,\n              36.00\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","contact":"<p><a href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/gmeg\" data-mce-href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/gmeg\">Geology, Minerals, Energy, &amp; Geophysics Science Center</a><br><a href=\"https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fusgs.gov%2F&amp;data=05%7C01%7Cjtran%40usgs.gov%7C2acc9ccfe04c490508e208db57150e3b%7C0693b5ba4b184d7b9341f32f400a5494%7C0%7C0%7C638199520171483214%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=M5pIPYGVMGFOGVgSlKnAjJ%2FMw0n5BBDivZ0f4E1wjFs%3D&amp;reserved=0\" data-mce-href=\"https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fusgs.gov%2F&amp;data=05%7C01%7Cjtran%40usgs.gov%7C2acc9ccfe04c490508e208db57150e3b%7C0693b5ba4b184d7b9341f32f400a5494%7C0%7C0%7C638199520171483214%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=M5pIPYGVMGFOGVgSlKnAjJ%2FMw0n5BBDivZ0f4E1wjFs%3D&amp;reserved=0\">U.S. Geological Survey</a><br>Building 19, 350 N.

Considerable effort is directed toward its recovery by striving to remove threats. In this report, we describe the development of a population viability analysis for right whales that is designed to assess the current status, evaluate the contributions of various threats, and explore the management interventions needed to achieve recovery. The individual-based model that underlies this analysis accounts for age- and stagespecific survival and reproductive rates, the effects of severe injury from entanglement or vessel strike, and future changes in prey availability and accessibility. Several new or updated empirical analyses supplied parameter estimates, and parametric uncertainty was carefully incorporated into the model results. </p><p>We find that under the status quo conditions of 2019, prior to the enactment of new regulations by the U.S. and Canada after 2020, the North Atlantic right whale population would be expected to continue to fall, with a median decline of 75% in 100 years (95% projection interval, –98% to +9% change) and a probability of falling below 50 proven females of 0.934 in 100 years. If the recently enacted regulations reduce entanglement risk by 25%, however, the population would be expected to decrease by 42% over 100 years (95% projection interval –92% to +154% change), with a risk of falling below 50 proven females in 100 years of 0.705. If, instead, the recently enacted regulations reduce entanglement risk by 50%, the population would be expected to increase by 52% in 100 years (95% projection interval –83% to +497% change), with a probability of falling below 50 proven females of 0.349. </p><p>Of the 3 primary threats explored in this analysis, the risk of entanglement contributes the most to the long-term risk of quasi-extinction, followed closely by the risk of vessel strike, and much more distantly by a decrease in prey availability. In hypothetical scenarios that fully remove one threat at a time, removal of the entanglement threat alone reduces the probability of falling below 50 proven females in 100 years from 0.934 to 0.053; removal of the vessel strike threat alone reduces it to 0.343; and a return to higher prey conditions, but with both human-related threats still in place, reduces it to 0.875. </p><p>We explored a wide range of management intervention scenarios that changed the rate of entanglement risk (e.g., endline reductions, closures, implementation of ropeless/on-demand gear); the effect of entanglement (through use of weak rope technology); the rate of vessel traffic increase over time; and the severity of vessel strike risk through speed restrictions. We found, for example, that reducing entanglement risk alone by 25% reduces the risk of quasi-extinction from 0.934 to 0.705; reducing vessel strike risk alone by 25% reduces the risk of quasi-extinction from 0.934 to 0.846; but the combination of reducing both entanglement risk and vessel strike risk by 25% reduces the risk of quasi-extinction to 0.528. </p><p>This model and the results it produced are meant to represent an assessment of the current status of North Atlantic right whales using the best available scientific and commercial data and state-of-the-art analytical tools. Our knowledge of the future of the right whale population, however, has limitations.

We conducted a mark-recapture-resight investigation to estimate the passage population of Red Knots at Delaware Bay in 2023. We used a Bayesian analysis of a Jolly-Seber model, which accounts for turnover in the population and the probability of detection during surveys. The 2023 passage population size was estimated at 39,361 (95% credible interval: 33,724–47,556). Although there is broad overlap in the credible intervals for population estimates from 2020–2023, the population estimate for 2023 was below 40,000 birds for only the second time since 2011. Horseshoe crabs have been harvested for use as bait in eel (<i>Anguilla rostrata</i>) and whelk (<i>Busycon</i>) fisheries since at least 1990. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, the number of Red Knots counted during aerial surveys at Delaware Bay declined from ~50,000 to ~13,000 and some avian conservation biologists hypothesized that horseshoe crab harvest levels in the 1990s prevented sufficient refueling for successful migration to the Arctic breeding grounds, reproduction, and survival for the remainder of the annual cycle. Since 2013, the harvest of horseshoe crabs in the Delaware Bay region has been managed using an Adaptive Resource Management (ARM) framework. The objective of the ARM framework is to manage sustainable harvest of Delaware Bay horseshoe crabs while maintaining ecosystem integrity and supporting Red Knot recovery with adequate stopover habitat for Red Knots and other migrating shorebirds. For annual harvest recommendations, the ARM framework requires annual estimates of horseshoe crab population size and the Red Knot stopover population size. The 2023 population size estimate will inform harvest recommendations in the next management cycle for decision making by the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Delaware Division of Fish and Wildlife","usgsCitation":"Lyons, J.E., 2023, Red Knot stopover population size and migration ecology at Delaware Bay, USA, 2023, 15 p.","productDescription":"15 p.","ipdsId":"IP-159297","costCenters":[{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":484058,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":484043,"rank":1,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://dnrec.alpha.delaware.gov/fish-wildlife/conservation/shorebirds/research/"}],"country":"United States","state":"Delaware, New Jersey","otherGeospatial":"Delaware Bay","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -75.08367028503963,\n              38.719590525784895\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.91863610562206,\n              38.97012711441013\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.8543007475435,\n              39.15256976333487\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.3829695595777,\n              39.44695257658836\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.51443746521609,\n              39.64539134375613\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.65429693929858,\n              39.619540213656876\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.56198968640427,\n              39.36698574058866\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.42772459128453,\n              39.14606207448017\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.3745779911329,\n              38.9679523390096\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.08367028503963,\n              38.719590525784895\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Lyons, James E. 0000-0002-9810-8751","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9810-8751","contributorId":222844,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lyons","given":"James","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":932440,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

The western two-fifths of the State falls within the Rocky Mountains and the eastern three-fifths is in the Great Plains. Because of its location along the Continental Divide, the rivers in Montana drain into either the Pacific Ocean or the Gulf of Mexico. Montana is often called the Treasure State due to its mineral wealth, which includes oil, gas, and coal, but the State’s primary economic activity is agriculture. Other economic activities include natural resources conservation, water supply and quality, infrastructure and construction management, flood risk management, and geologic resource assessment and hazard mitigation. Critical applications that meet the State’s management needs depend on light detection and ranging (lidar) data that provide a highly detailed three-dimensional (3D) model of the Earth’s surface and

Habitat loss, non-native predators, and damage by feral ungulates are limiting factors for ground-nesting petrels at Haleakalā and throughout Hawai‘i. Because nesting habitats differ among the Hawaiian Islands, habitat distribution modeling for Hawaiian petrel has been island specific. Based on 2453 known nest site locations, we provide the first landscape-scale predictive model describing relative abundance and habitat available for nesting petrels throughout upper Haleakalā (1830 to 3055 m). We evaluated (principal components analyses and Pearson’s correlation) 13 spatial landscape and climate predictor variables associated with nest sites and the background landscape followed by random forest modeling to predict nest site density. Six variables (elevation, slope, topographic position index at 2 scales, heat load index, presence-absence ash/cinder, and presence-absence vegetation) indicated nest sites occurred non-randomly throughout the central part of the summit and crater; greatest concentrations were predicted along the crater rim and a ridgeline extending southwest from the summit. Moderately high predicted density occurred in the northeastern and northern crater. Lower elevations to the north, west, and south flanks of Haleakalā had relatively fewer predicted nest sites. Although we focused on higher elevations on Haleakalā, there is no reason to suspect that conservation efforts would not be successful at lower elevations, provided nesting petrels were protected from invasive predators, grazing ungulates, and significant land alteration.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Inter-Research Science Publisher","doi":"10.3354/esr01280","usgsCitation":"Adams, J.,

This report describes the results from\nfisheries community sampling from 2017-2021 and the concurrent bio-telemetry project aimed at understanding phenological changes in the fish community and movement and space-use of a variety of large-bodied fishes in the LBR against which selective fish passage treatments will be developed and evaluated.\nFish migration in riverine environments is a growing area of concern as mounting anthropogenic influences, particularly fragmentation from dams and barriers, constitute a major threat to global river species diversity. Specifically, In the Laurentian Great Lakes basin, more than 250,000 dams, weirs, culverts, and other significant obstructions prevent the movement of species both between the Great Lakes and rivers, and within rivers. Barriers\nimpede the movement of fishes between areas critical to the completion of their lifecycle, affecting both population and ecosystem viability. However, a conundrum arises in that the same barriers can also prevent the upstream invasion of non-native or undesirable species (most notably the sea lamprey Petromyzon marinus in the Great Lakes),prevent the transfer of contaminants and diseases, halt deleterious genes, provide recreational opportunities, or\ngenerate power. As a result, fish passage solutions with the capability of selectively passing desirable taxa while restricting the dispersal of undesirable taxa (selective connectivity) are sought to solve this connectivity conundrum. FishPass is a multi-agency initiative planned to replace the Union Street Dam on the Boardman River in Traverse City,MI (USA), aimed at developing and implementing automatic or semiautomatic selective bi-directional fish guidance,\nsorting, and passage techniques and technologies. Pivotal to both the successful development of selective connectivity and assessment of its effects is a more complete understanding of the Boardman River’s fishery. Specifically, understanding the species and size composition of the fish community, fish movement phenology and the associated abiotic conditions.\n\nFish community sampling confirmed the presence of 28 unique species in the LBR (Boardman River reach below Union Street Dam). Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) tag telemetry increased the resolution of phenological shifts in the fish community that could not have been captured from periodic fish sampling. This data demonstrates large variation within species and overlap between species presence. However, discrete periods of presence were identified across most species when considering the central tendencies in the distribution of their presence. Rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss were found to be omni-present in the river while brown trout Salmo trutta and smallmouth bass Micropterus dolomieu also persisted throughout a majority of the year; all of which will require continually sorting at FishPass. PIT tag telemetry also provided the important understanding that individuals (3-64%) of all species return to\nthe LBR across multiple years.\n\nRadio telemetry (RT) proved useful in refining the entry and exit timing and in evaluating the proportion of individuals that encountered the current Union Street Dam and Kid’s Creek (the only tributary confluence below the Union Street Dam) across six species (common white sucker Catostomus commersonii, rainbow trout, smallmouth bass, walleye Sander vitreus, brown trout, and common carp Cyprinus carpio). The RT results show that these species are present in FishPass Research Publication: baseline assessment\nof fish community assemblage and migratory pattern in the Boardman River, Traverse City, Michigan, USA November 2023 7 between April and August. Our analysis also demonstrated that not all fish that entered the river proceeded to the Union Street Dam, but those that did, did so prior to being detected encountering Kid’s Creek. Common white sucker and rainbow trout were the only species to be detected encountering Kid’s Creek.\n\nCollectively, the results of this study provide a baseline understanding of the seasonal fish diversity and relative abundance of fishes in the LBR, and a basic description of observed movement patterns of a subset of species in the context of seasonal phenology, entry and exit behavior within the LBR, and the propensity at which telemetered individuals encounter the Union Street dam and/or Kid’s Creek.","language":"English","publisher":"Great Lakes Fishery Commission","collaboration":"Great Lakes Fisheries Commission","usgsCitation":"Swanson, R.G., Zielinski, D.P., Castro-Santos, T., and Muir, A., 2023, FishPass baseline assessment of fish community assemblage and migratory patterns in in the Boardman River, Traverse City, Michigan, USA, 49 p.","productDescription":"49 p.","ipdsId":"IP-155321","costCenters":[{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":423903,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":423897,"rank":1,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"http://www.glfc.org/pubs/pdfs/research/FishPassResearchPublication2023-CommunityAssemblage.pdf"}],"country":"United States","state":"Michigan","city":"Traverse City","otherGeospatial":"Boardman River","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -85.7182012975478,\n              44.78761727288912\n            ],\n            [\n              -85.7182012975478,\n              44.70666411909653\n            ],\n            [\n              -85.53349365594626,\n              44.70666411909653\n            ],\n            [\n              -85.53349365594626,\n              44.78761727288912\n            ],\n            [\n              -85.7182012975478,\n              44.78761727288912\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Swanson, Reid G.","contributorId":332833,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Swanson","given":"Reid","email":"","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[{"id":65273,"text":"GLFC","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":891020,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Zielinski, Daniel P.","contributorId":211034,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Zielinski","given":"Daniel","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":34820,"text":"Great Lakes Fisheries Commission, Ann Arbor, MI","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":891021,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Castro-Santos, Theodore 0000-0003-2575-9120","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2575-9120","contributorId":315433,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Castro-Santos","given":"Theodore","affiliations":[{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":891022,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Muir, Andrew M.","contributorId":103933,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Muir","given":"Andrew M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":891023,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

In recent years, deep learning methods have emerged as a promising tool for image-based fish recognition. Our study is focused on the re-identification of masu salmon from Japan, wherein fish were individually marked and photographed to evaluate discriminative body characteristics. Unlike previous studies where fish were sampled during the same time period, we evaluated individual re-identification across seasons and years to address challenges due to aging, seasonal variation, and other factors. In this paper, we propose a new contrastive learning framework called&nbsp;</span><u>Ag</u><span>ing&nbsp;</span><u>Co</u><span>ntrast (AgCo) and evaluate its performance on the masu salmon dataset. Our analysis indicates that, unlike large changes in body size over time, the pattern of parr marks on the lateral line of the fish body remains relatively stable, despite some change in coloration across seasons. AgCo accounts for such seasonally-invariant features and performs re-identification based on the cosine similarity of these features. Extensive experiments show that our AgCo method outperforms other state-of-the-art methods.</span></p>","conferenceTitle":"AI 2023: Advances in Artificial Intelligence: 36th Australasian Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, AI 2023","conferenceDate":"November 28-December 1, 2023","conferenceLocation":"Brisbane, Australia","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/978-981-99-8388-9_21","usgsCitation":"Shi, W., Zhou, Z., Letcher, B., Hitt, N.P., Kanno, Y., Futamura, R., Kishida, O., Morita, K., and Li, S., 2023, Aging contrast: A contrastive learning framework for fish re-identification across seasons and years., AI 2023: Advances in Artificial Intelligence: 36th Australasian Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, AI 2023, v. 14471, Brisbane, Australia, November 28-December 1, 2023, p. 252-264, https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-99-8388-9_21.","productDescription":"13 p.","startPage":"252","endPage":"264","ipdsId":"IP-150815","costCenters":[{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":426128,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"14471","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Shi, Weili","contributorId":305925,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Shi","given":"Weili","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":25492,"text":"University of Virginia","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":874101,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Zhou, Z.","contributorId":305926,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Zhou","given":"Z.","affiliations":[{"id":12697,"text":"University of Georgia","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":874102,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Letcher, Benjamin 0000-0003-0191-5678","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0191-5678","contributorId":242666,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Letcher","given":"Benjamin","affiliations":[{"id":365,"text":"Leetown Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":874104,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Hitt, Nathaniel P. 0000-0002-1046-4568","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1046-4568","contributorId":238185,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hitt","given":"Nathaniel","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":365,"text":"Leetown Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":874103,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Kanno, Yoichiro ykanno@usgs.gov","contributorId":4876,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kanno","given":"Yoichiro","email":"ykanno@usgs.gov","affiliations":[],"preferred":true,"id":874105,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Futamura, R.","contributorId":305928,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Futamura","given":"R.","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":16855,"text":"Hokkaido University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":874106,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Kishida, O.","contributorId":305927,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kishida","given":"O.","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":16855,"text":"Hokkaido University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":895666,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Morita, K.","contributorId":305929,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Morita","given":"K.","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":7267,"text":"University of Tokyo","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":874108,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8},{"text":"Li, Sheng","contributorId":297449,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Li","given":"Sheng","affiliations":[{"id":12697,"text":"University of Georgia","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":874109,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":9}]}}

From 2014–2016, we surveyed 45 wetlands among 19 easements for occupancy by Eastern Tiger Salamanders (</span><i>Ambystoma tigrinum tigrinum</i><span>) and used radio-telemetry to measure their patterns of movement and habitat use. Rates of occupancy increased with wetland age, from &lt; 25% for wetlands 1–2 years old to ∼75% for wetlands &gt; 11 years old. A two-year survey (2014 and 2015) of ten wetlands restored in 2013 showed that nine were occupied after two years; we did not find a relationship between distance to the nearest salamander population and occupancy of newly restored wetlands by salamanders. We tracked 30 salamanders after they left their breeding wetlands for an average of 69±37 d (range = 14–109 d) and relocated them a total of 393 times. Typically, once a salamander left its breeding wetland, it traveled 50–350 m over several days, found a suitable burrow, then remained for much of the rest of the season. Mean daily distances traveled by salamanders were 7.9±5.6 m (range = 0–135 m); the range of maximum straight-line distances moved was 26–659 m; only one individual salamander traveled in a statistically linear path, relative to a random walk. While ∼90% of the landscape was composed of row-crop fields, salamanders used protective grassy habitats (e.g., restored prairie, road ditches) on ∼88% of our observations. Only three salamanders used row-crop fields, and two of them were killed by heavy equipment. Regardless of the terrestrial habitat types used by salamanders, we found them underground on 336 (84.8%) of our observations.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"BioOne","doi":"10.1643/h2020083","usgsCitation":"Bartelt, P., Devries, A., and Klaver, R.W., 2023, Response of Tiger Salamanders (Ambystoma t. tigrinum) to wetland restoration in a midwestern agricultural landscape, U.S.A.: Ichthyology & Herpetology, v. 111, no. 4, p. 571-583, https://doi.org/10.1643/h2020083.","productDescription":"13 p.","startPage":"571","endPage":"583","ipdsId":"IP-116927","costCenters":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":480939,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Iowa","county":"Winnebago County","geographicExtents":"{\"type\":\"FeatureCollection\",\"features\":[{\"type\":\"Feature\",\"geometry\":{\"type\":\"Polygon\",\"coordinates\":[[[-93.9691,43.5044],[-93.6782,43.5047],[-93.6485,43.5045],[-93.4964,43.504],[-93.4971,43.4347],[-93.4971,43.3446],[-93.4977,43.2568],[-93.6184,43.2572],[-93.7354,43.257],[-93.853,43.2568],[-93.9699,43.2573],[-93.9705,43.3447],[-93.9699,43.4334],[-93.9691,43.5044]]]},\"properties\":{\"name\":\"Winnebago\",\"state\":\"IA\"}}]}","volume":"111","issue":"4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Bartelt, Paul E.","contributorId":348825,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Bartelt","given":"Paul E.","affiliations":[{"id":56262,"text":"Waldorf University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":923810,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Devries, Alyse T.","contributorId":348826,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Devries","given":"Alyse T.","affiliations":[{"id":56262,"text":"Waldorf University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":923811,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Klaver, Robert W. 0000-0002-3263-9701 bklaver@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3263-9701","contributorId":3285,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Klaver","given":"Robert","email":"bklaver@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":222,"text":"Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":923809,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Realistic longer-term projections may, however, be possible under well-defined scenarios that specify the future state of critical epidemic drivers. Since December 2020, the U.S. COVID-19 Scenario Modeling Hub (SMH) has convened multiple modeling teams to make months ahead projections of SARS-CoV-2 burden, totaling nearly 1.8 million national and state-level projections. Here, we find SMH performance varied widely as a function of both scenario validity and model calibration. We show scenarios remained close to reality for 22 weeks on average before the arrival of unanticipated SARS-CoV-2 variants invalidated key assumptions. An ensemble of participating models that preserved variation between models (using the linear opinion pool method) was consistently more reliable than any single model in periods of valid scenario assumptions, while projection interval coverage was near target levels. SMH projections were used to guide pandemic response, illustrating the value of collaborative hubs for longer-term scenario projections.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Nature","doi":"10.1038/s41467-023-42680-x","usgsCitation":"Howerton, E., Contamin, L., Mullany, L.C., Qin, M., Reich, N.G., Bents, S.,
