Primary outputs of the NCM are continuous velocity and density profiles from the Earth’s surface to the mantle transition zone at 410-kilometer (km) depth for each location on a 1-km grid across the conterminous United States. Datasets used to produce the NCM may have a resolution of better than 1 km near the Earth’s surface in some regions, but, with increasing depth, NCM resolution decreases to tens to hundreds of kilometers in the mantle. Basic subsurface information is provided by the NCM geologic framework, thermal model, and petrologic and mineral physics database. In this report, the velocities and densities that can be extracted from the NCM are calibrated through the development of a porosity model based on Biot-Gassmann theory and more than 2,000 compressional- and (or) shear-wave velocity profiles less than 10 km deep from across the conterminous United States and southwestern Canada.</p><p>Sediment and rock porosities are derived from shear-wave velocity and are found to depend on effective pressure, rock type, and age (for sedimentary and extrusive volcanic deposits). Porosity-effective pressure functions are then estimated for each rock type (and age for sedimentary and extrusive volcanic deposits). Unconsolidated sediments are found to have higher porosities than consolidated units, which have higher porosities than unweathered igneous units; young sedimentary units (for example, Quaternary age units) tend to have higher porosities than older sedimentary units (for example, pre-Cenozoic age units); porosity decreases with increasing effective pressure; and porosities can decrease quickly through the weathered layer of intrusive rocks.</p><p>Comparing two Los Angeles area velocity models and the U.S. Geological Survey Bay Area velocity model with the NCM, the NCM does a better job on average of reproducing observed shear-wave velocities below 1 km per second because it has less bias and uncertainty. Approaching and above 1 km per second, the NCM tends to underpredict observed shear-wave velocity. Whereas several factors could contribute to this, the primary factor is probably bias in the NCM geologic framework. For example, the NCM will predict lower velocities in places where the depth to bedrock and basement appear shallower in the measured velocity profiles than specified in the NCM geologic framework. With regard to observed compressional-wave velocity and density, the NCM has significantly less bias than California models for the former, especially below 2 km per second, and all models tend to overpredict density for densities less than about 2,200 kilograms per cubic meter.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston,

The model incorporates the strong seasonality and high degree of censoring common in pesticide data, and users can incorporate numerous ancillary variables such as streamflow anomalies. The model is fitted to pesticide data using maximum likelihood methods for censored data and is robust in terms of pesticide, stream location, and degree of censoring of the concentration data. This R package standardizes this methodology for trend analysis, documents the code, and provides help and tutorial information.</p><p>In previous investigations, the SEAWAVE-Q model assumed a linear trend across the period analyzed. For short trend periods, this assumption of a linear trend is adequate. However, as the period of record analyzed becomes longer, the assumption of linearity is problematic because of changes in pesticide regulation and use, some of which can be abrupt. In this update to the model, a restricted cubic spline option was added for long trend periods. This option allows for more flexibility in the time component of the model. Bootstrap functionality is included to determine statistical significance. Model results with the new restricted cubic spline option are compared to the linear trend option for two pesticide-site combinations.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/ofr20201082","collaboration":"National Water Quality Program","usgsCitation":"Ryberg, K.R., and York, B.C., 2020, seawaveQ—An R package providing a model and utilities for analyzing trends in chemical concentrations in streams with a seasonal wave (seawave) and adjustment for streamflow (Q) and other ancillary variables, version 2.0.0: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 2020–1082, 25 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr20201082.","productDescription":"Report: vi, 25; 3 Appendixes","numberOfPages":"36","onlineOnly":"Y","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","ipdsId":"IP-101011","costCenters":[{"id":37277,"text":"WMA - Earth System Processes Division","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":376796,"rank":3,"type":{"id":3,"text":"Appendix"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2020/1082/ofr20201082_appendix_1.pdf","text":"Appendix 1.","size":"356 kB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"OFR 2020–1082 Appendix 1","linkHelpText":"— Vignette for seawaveQ—An R Package Providing a Model and Utilities for Analyzing Trends in Chemical Concentrations in Streams with a Seasonal Wave (seawave) and Adjustment for Streamflow (Q) and Other Ancillary Variables"},{"id":376797,"rank":4,"type":{"id":3,"text":"Appendix"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2020/1082/ofr20201082_appendix_2.pdf","text":"Appendix 2.","size":"228 kB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"OFR 2020–1082 Appendix 2","linkHelpText":"— R Documentation"},{"id":376798,"rank":5,"type":{"id":3,"text":"Appendix"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2020/1082/ofr20201082_appendix_4.pdf","text":"Appendix 4.","size":"1.03 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"OFR 2020–1082 Appendix 4","linkHelpText":"— Model Comparisons Using seawaveQ"},{"id":376794,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2020/1082/coverthb.jpg"},{"id":376795,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2020/1082/ofr20201082.pdf","text":"Report","size":"2.29 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"OFR 2020–1082"}],"contact":"<p>Director, <a data-mce-href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/dakota-water\" href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/dakota-water\">Dakota Water Science Center</a> <br>U.S. Geological Survey<br>821 East Interstate Avenue <br>Bismarck, ND 58503<br><br></p><p>1608 Mountain View Road<br>Rapid City, SD</p>","tableOfContents":"<ul><li>Foreword</li><li>Abstract</li><li>Introduction</li><li>Description of the seawaveQ Package</li><li>Statistical Methodology of Original Model</li><li>Addition of Restricted Cubic Splines Option</li><li>Model Output</li><li>Load Calculation</li><li>Summary</li><li>Disclaimer</li><li>Acknowledgments</li><li>References Cited</li><li>Appendix 1.

However, non-lethal behavioral changes resulting from radiomarking have the potential to affect inferences from telemetry data and may vary based on individual and environmental characteristics. We used a long-term, multi-species tracking study of sea ducks to assess behavioral patterns at multiple temporal scales following implantation of intracoelomic satellite transmitters. We applied state-space models to assess short-term behavioral patterns in individuals with implanted satellite transmitters, as well as comparing breeding site attendance and migratory phenology across multiple years after capture. In the short term, our results suggest an increase in dispersive behavior immediately following capture and transmitter implantation; however, behavior returned to seasonally-average patterns within approximately five days after release. Over multiple years, we found that breeding site attendance by both males and females was depressed during the first breeding season after radiomarking relative to subsequent years, with larger relative decreases in breeding site attendance among males than females. We also found that spring migration occurred later in the first year after radiomarking than in subsequent years. Across all behavioral effects, the severity of behavioral change often varied by species, sex, age, and capture season, suggesting heterogeneity in individual sensitivity. We conclude that, although individuals appear to adjust relatively quickly (i.e., within one week) to implanted satellite transmitters, changes in breeding phenology may occur over the longer term and should be considered when analyzing and reporting telemetry data.","language":"English","publisher":"Oxford Academic","doi":"10.1093/condor/duaa029","usgsCitation":"Lamb, J.S., Paton, P.W.,

One of these technologies is aquifer storage and recovery (ASR), where surface water is treated then recharged into a storage zone within an existing aquifer for later recovery and discharge into a body of water. During the storage phase of ASR, nutrient concentrations in the recharge water have been shown to decrease due, presumably via the uptake by the native aquifer microbial community. In this study, the native microbial community in an anaerobic carbonate aquifer zone targeted for ASR storage was segregated into planktonic and biofilm communities then challenged with NO</span><sub>3</sub><span>-N, PO</span><sub>4</sub><span>-P, and acetate as dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to determine their respective removal and uptake rates. The planktonic community removed NO</span><sub>3</sub><span>-N at a rate of 0.059 mg L</span><sup>–1</sup><span>d</span><sup>–1</sup><span>, PO</span><sub>4</sub><span>-P at 5.73 × 10</span><sup>–8</sup><span>–1.03 × 10</span><sup>–7</sup><span>&nbsp;mg L</span><sup>–1</sup><span>d</span><sup>–1</sup><span>&nbsp;and DOC at 0.015–0.244 mg L</span><sup>–1</sup><span>d</span><sup>–1</sup><span>.

These rates were applied to field data collected at an ASR facility in central Florida and from the same aquifer storage zone from which the biofilm communities were grown. With only 10% of the available surface area within the storage zone being colonized by biofilms, typical concentrations of NO</span><sub>3</sub><span>-N, PO4-P, and DOC in the recharged filtered surface waters would be reduced to below detection limits, and by 81.4 and 91.1%, respectively, during a 150 days storage period.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Frontiers Media","doi":"10.3389/fmicb.2020.01765","usgsCitation":"Lisle, J.T., 2020, Nutrient removal and uptake by native planktonic and biofilm bacterial communities in an anaerobic aquifer: Frontiers in Microbiology, v. 11, 1765, 13 p., https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2020.01765.","productDescription":"1765, 13 p.","ipdsId":"IP-111177","costCenters":[{"id":574,"text":"St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":455831,"rank":1,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2020.01765","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":436853,"rank":0,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/P9EOM5RC","text":"USGS data release","linkHelpText":"Microbial Nutrient Cycling in the Upper Floridan Aquifer"},{"id":436852,"rank":0,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/P9EOM5RC","text":"USGS data release","linkHelpText":"Microbial Nutrient Cycling in the Upper Floridan Aquifer"},{"id":383695,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Florida","otherGeospatial":"Kissimmee River","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -80.87735652923584,\n              27.15044802232913\n            ],\n            [\n              -80.86731433868408,\n              27.15044802232913\n            ],\n            [\n              -80.86731433868408,\n              27.15772232531679\n            ],\n            [\n              -80.87735652923584,\n              27.15772232531679\n            ],\n            [\n              -80.87735652923584,\n              27.15044802232913\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"11","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2020-07-29","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Lisle, John T. 0000-0002-5447-2092 jlisle@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5447-2092","contributorId":2944,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lisle","given":"John","email":"jlisle@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[{"id":574,"text":"St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":811085,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

The all‐sky images and magnetometers have the same objective, which is to monitor space weather and improve our understanding of auroral activity, including the influence on magnetic fields in the ground. These variations in the magnetic field are also visible on seismometers, to the extent that during an auroral event, the long‐period (40–800&nbsp;s) waves recorded by a seismometer are magnetic field variations, not true ground motion. Although this is a problem—one that can be rectified with magnetic shielding at each seismometer site—it is also an opportunity because the present seismic array in Alaska is much broader than the coverage by magnetometers and all‐sky cameras. Here we focus on three aurora events and document a direct link between aurora images in the night sky and seismometer recordings on ground. Simultaneous recordings by magnetometers provide a critical link between the sky images and the seismometer recordings. We document qualitative correlations among sky, magnetic, and seismic data. The findings suggest that the signature of auroral activity is widespread across seismometers in Alaska, implying that the seismic array could be used to enhance the spatial resolution of the existing network of all‐sky cameras and magnetometers. Future efforts to improve the multisensor seismic stations in Alaska, for the purpose of monitoring seismic and auroral activity, should consider installation of all‐sky cameras, installation of magnetometers, and magnetic shielding of seismic sensors.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Seismological Society of America","doi":"10.1785/0220200161","usgsCitation":"Tape, C., Ringler,

Playa wetlands provide critical wildlife habitat, but may be impacted by intensifying droughts and previous hydrologic modifications. To inform playa restoration planning, we asked: (1) what are the trends in playa inundation? (2) what are the factors influencing inundation? (3) how is playa inundation affected by increasingly severe drought? (4) do certain playas provide hydrologic refugia during droughts, and (5) if so, how are refugia patterns related to historical modifications? Using remotely sensed surface-water data, we evaluated a 30-year time series (1985–2015) of inundation for 153 playas of the Great Basin, USA. Inundation likelihood and duration increased with wetter weather conditions and were greater in modified playas. Inundation probability was projected to decrease from 22% under average conditions to 11% under extreme drought, with respective annual inundation decreasing from 1.7 to 0.9&nbsp;months. Only 4% of playas were inundated for at least 2&nbsp;months in each of the 5 driest years, suggesting their potential as drought refugia. Refugial playas were larger and more likely to have been modified, possibly because previous land managers selected refugial playas for modification. These inundation patterns can inform efforts to restore wetland functions and to conserve playa habitats as climate conditions change.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s13157-020-01334-0","usgsCitation":"Russell, M.T., Cartwright, J.M., Collins, G.H., Long, R.A., and Eitel, J., 2020, Legacy effects of hydrologic alteration in playa wetland responses to droughts: Wetlands, v. 40, p. 2011-2024, https://doi.org/10.1007/s13157-020-01334-0.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"2011","endPage":"2024","ipdsId":"IP-111867","costCenters":[{"id":24708,"text":"Lower Mississippi-Gulf Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":455846,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1007/s13157-020-01334-0","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":377103,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Nevada, Oregon","otherGeospatial":"Sheldon-Hart Mountain National Wildlife Refuge Complex","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -119.96246337890624,\n              41.52091689636249\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.69354248046875,\n              41.52091689636249\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.69354248046875,\n              42.84777884235988\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.96246337890624,\n              42.84777884235988\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.96246337890624,\n              41.52091689636249\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"40","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2020-07-28","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Russell, Micah T.","contributorId":236988,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Russell","given":"Micah","email":"","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[{"id":38118,"text":"Western Colorado University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":794877,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Cartwright, Jennifer M. 0000-0003-0851-8456 jmcart@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0851-8456","contributorId":5386,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Cartwright","given":"Jennifer","email":"jmcart@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":24708,"text":"Lower Mississippi-Gulf Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":581,"text":"Tennessee Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":794878,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Collins, Gail H.","contributorId":59170,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Collins","given":"Gail","email":"","middleInitial":"H.","affiliations":[{"id":6987,"text":"U.S. Fish and Wildlife Sevice","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":794879,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Long, Ryan A.","contributorId":236989,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Long","given":"Ryan","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":36394,"text":"University of Idaho","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":794880,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Eitel, Jan H.","contributorId":236991,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Eitel","given":"Jan H.","affiliations":[{"id":36394,"text":"University of Idaho","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":794881,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

Mojave desert tortoises Gopherus agassizii are listed as threatened under the US Endangered Species Act, and Sonoran desert tortoises G. morafkai are protected in Arizona (USA) and Mexico. Substantial habitat for both species occurs on multiple-use public lands, where development associated with traditional and renewable energy production, recreation, and other activities is likely to continue. Our goal was to quantify development to inform and evaluate actions implemented to protect and manage desert tortoise habitat. We quantified a landscape-level index of development across the Mojave and Sonoran desert tortoise ranges using models of potential habitat for each species (152485 total observations). We used 13 years of Mojave desert tortoise monitoring data (4732 observations) to inform the levels and spatial scales at which tortoises may be affected by development. Most (66–70%) desert tortoise habitat has some development within 1 km. Development levels on desert tortoise habitat are lower inside versus outside areas protected by actions at national, state, and local levels, suggesting that protection efforts may be having the desired effects and providing a needed baseline for future effectiveness evaluations. Of the relatively undeveloped desert tortoise habitat, 43% (74030 km2) occurs outside of existing protections. These lands are managed by multiple federal, state, and local entities and private landowners, and may provide opportunities for future land acquisition or protection, including as mitigation for energy development on public lands.","language":"English","publisher":"Inter-Research Science Publisher","doi":"10.3354/esr01045","usgsCitation":"Carter, S.K., Nussear, K., Esque, T., Leinwand, I.I.,

We assessed genetic and morphological differentiation between the widespread Northern Smallmouth Bass (<i>M. d. dolomieu</i>) and the more restricted Neosho Smallmouth Bass (<i>M. d. velox</i>) where their ranges meet in the Central Interior Highlands ecoregion (CIH). Data from 14 microsatellite loci were used to conduct S<span class=\"u-small-caps\">TRUCTURE</span><span>&nbsp;</span>and principal components analyses to evaluate diversity across populations and screen for hybridization with sympatric Spotted Bass (<i>M. punctulatus</i>). We also tested for morphological differences using five morphometric traits and one meristic trait. We found support for three genetic clusters corresponding to previously described taxonomic variation; five clusters largely corresponding to river systems; and nine clusters representing hierarchical population structure within both ranges. We found evidence of a unique genetic cluster in tributaries of the White River within the Northern Smallmouth Bass range and admixture between the subspecies throughout the Neosho range. We also found evidence of morphological differentiation between subspecies; Neosho Smallmouth Bass exhibited larger head length than Northern Smallmouth Bass relative to total length, and there was a significant interaction of subspecies and orbital length, possibly indicating differential growth patterns between subspecies. Our results reveal multiple levels of divergence, suggesting the CIH harbors greater and more complex Smallmouth Bass diversity than previously thought.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s10592-020-01295-1","usgsCitation":"Gunn, J.C., Berkman, L.K., Koppelman, J.K., Taylor, A.T., Brewer, S.K., Long, J.M., and Eggert, L.S., 2020, Complex patterns of genetic and morphological differentiation in the Smallmouth Bass subspecies (Micropterus dolomieu dolomieu and M. d. velox) of the Central Interior Highlands: Conservation Genetics, v. 21, p. 891-904, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10592-020-01295-1.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"891","endPage":"904","ipdsId":"IP-111223","costCenters":[{"id":198,"text":"Coop Res Unit Atlanta","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":395679,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Arkansas, Illinois, Kansas, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -98.7890625,\n              33.99802726234877\n            ],\n            [\n              -88.41796875,\n              33.99802726234877\n            ],\n            [\n              -88.41796875,\n              39.80853604144591\n            ],\n            [\n              -98.7890625,\n              39.80853604144591\n            ],\n            [\n              -98.7890625,\n              33.99802726234877\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"21","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2020-07-28","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Gunn, Joe C.","contributorId":275348,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Gunn","given":"Joe","email":"","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":6754,"text":"University of Missouri","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":834024,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Berkman, Leah K.","contributorId":275349,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Berkman","given":"Leah","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[{"id":16971,"text":"Missouri Department of Conservation","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":834025,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Koppelman, Jeff K.","contributorId":275350,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Koppelman","given":"Jeff","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[{"id":16971,"text":"Missouri Department of Conservation","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":834026,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Taylor, A.

Since the fruiting bodies of these fungi are part of the diet of multiple rodent species, filling data gaps is important to understanding more about truffle species distribution and habitat associations. During a microhabitat study on radio-collared Virginia Northern Flying Squirrels (Glaucomys sabrinus fuscus Miller) in 2013, we opportunistically sampled truffles at small mammal digs and scratches within our microhabitat plots. All sampling was conducted within known squirrel foraging home ranges. We found three Elaphomyces species: Elaphomyces macrosporus Castellano and Elliott, E. verruculosus Castellano, and E. americanum Castellano.

For the associated NAWQA study of pesticide occurrence and concentration in groundwater, and for other studies using pesticide results determined by S2437, it is necessary to assess the ability of reported results to meet data-quality requirements that will allow study objectives to be achieved. This assessment of the quality of S2437 results reported in 2013–18 examined data from field and laboratory quality-control samples, along with third-party performance assessment samples, to estimate bias and variability and to identify their potential sources, with an emphasis on implications for the interpretation of pesticide data for groundwater. Results indicate that measurements produced by the S2437 method for most pesticides have bias and variability that would be considered acceptable for many interpretative studies, which could therefore use the results without qualification or censoring. However, the reported data for a subset of pesticides have the potential for unacceptable contamination bias, high or low recovery bias, or high variability as a consequence of method performance and (or) nonlaboratory factors that could preclude their use for certain common objectives or could necessitate adjustment or qualification to meet those objectives.</p><p>Based on data for laboratory blanks, censoring of some detections for a subset of pesticides reported by the laboratory in environmental samples might be necessary or desirable to avoid an unacceptably high likelihood of a false-positive result caused by laboratory contamination. The 90-percent upper confidence limit for the 95th percentile of laboratory blank concentration equals or exceeds the minimum reported groundwater concentration in at least 1 water year for 28 pesticides. During at least 1 water year, this upper confidence limit exceeds the maximum laboratory detection limit for 17 pesticides and exceeds the maximum laboratory reporting limit for 3 pesticides (ametryn, atrazine, and diazinon). The level of contamination indicated by this upper confidence limit should not substantially affect the suitability of reported environmental concentrations for any compound for comparison with corresponding human-health benchmarks.</p><p>Despite being subjected to the same laboratory processes as laboratory blanks, field blanks indicated little evidence of contamination bias. This observation could largely be the consequence of data-reporting practices, which utilize detections in laboratory blanks to censor results in associated field samples (including blanks and environmental samples) when relative concentrations indicate that a result could have a substantial contribution from laboratory contamination. Laboratory censoring appears likely to reduce the risk of false-positive results in environmental samples below the level that laboratory blank results alone would imply.</p><p>Whereas data available for third-party blind blank samples analyzed in 2018 indicate that only propoxur had any false-positive results, data for pesticides that were not spiked into blind spike samples analyzed in 2013–18 indicate that the false-positive rates for 31 pesticides exceeded 1 percent when considering only detections reported at concentrations greater than the maximum detection limit. Although about half of these pesticides lack substantial supporting evidence of contamination bias based on laboratory blank or field blank detections, indicating that spiking issues or degradation of parent compounds within the spiked samples might be a contributing factor to some false-positive results, these results indicate the need to closely examine detections reported for some pesticides in environmental samples analyzed during a similar period for possible contributions from contamination bias. Data for blind spike samples that were spiked at concentrations above the maximum reporting limit indicate that false-negative rates for eight pesticides exceed 10 percent; substantial low bias could affect results reported for these pesticides in environmental samples analyzed during a similar period.</p><p>Data for laboratory reagent spikes, which measure recovery of pesticides in blank water, show little evidence for unacceptable recovery bias for S2437 pesticides. However, field matrix spikes, which measure recovery of pesticides in environmental matrices, indicate that degradation and (or) matrix effects could result in moderate to substantial low bias for groundwater results for several pesticides. Low bias could cause some reported concentrations to be categorized as being below a benchmark when the actual concentration in groundwater is greater than the benchmark. Occurrence and concentrations in groundwater could be substantially underrepresented for six pesticides with benchmarks (1H-1,2,4-triazole, asulam, bifenthrin, cis-permethrin, fenbutatin oxide, and naled) that have median recoveries between zero and 50 percent in field matrix spikes. Two compounds (didealkylatrazine and 2-hydroxy-6-ethylamino-4-amino-s-triazine) have median recoveries near or greater than 150 percent in field matrix spikes, indicating a substantial high bias. Plots of data for all spike types show clear changes in the typical recovery with time for some pesticides, which would require further examination for evaluation of temporal trends in environmental concentrations.</p><p>Data for laboratory reagent spikes indicate that nearly all S2437 pesticides have acceptable variability resulting from random measurement error. Only two compounds (fenbutatin oxide and naled) have F-pseudosigma values greater than 30 percent for recovery, which implies the potential for relatively high variability in reported concentrations and could affect comparison of concentrations to benchmarks and determination of whether concentrations for samples collected at separate locations or times are truly different with a specified level of confidence. Data for third-party blind spike samples show relatively high variability for a greater number of pesticides, although these results likely reflect the influence of degradation and (or) differences in the magnitude and variability of concentrations used for blind spikes relative to laboratory reagent spikes. Detailed analysis of variability using field replicate data is possible for only 12 pesticides on S2437; low variability in analyte detection and concentration is indicated for most of these pesticides in groundwater.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sir20205072","collaboration":"National Water-Quality

Bedrock, soil, streambed sediment, and surface-water samples were collected in three watersheds that cross the basal part of the Duluth Complex with different mineral-deposit settings: (1) copper-nickel-platinum group element mineralization (Filson Creek), (2) iron-titanium-oxide mineralization (headwaters of the St. Louis River), and (3) no identified mineralization (Keeley Creek). At least 10 bedrock, 30 soil (2 each from 15 sites), and as many as 13 streambed sediment samples were collected in each watershed and analyzed for 44 major and trace elements, total and inorganic carbon, and 10 loosely bound metals (when possible). Surface-water samples were collected at four to nine locations in each watershed three to four times per year for 2 years (total of 141 environmental samples). Surface-water samples were analyzed for 10 trace metals (total and dissolved concentrations), 8 trace elements, 8 major ions (dissolved concentrations), alkalinity, and total and dissolved organic carbon.</p><p>Metal and element concentrations in solid media varied by watershed, representing local geology. Copper-nickel sulfide mineralization in the Filson Creek watershed was evidenced in bedrock, soil, and streambed sediments. In the Keeley Creek watershed, silicate mineralogy of underlying bedrock contributed metals to streambed sediments. Thick glacial cover masked potential bedrock contributions to solid media in the St. Louis River watershed. Water-quality data indicate that waters in all three watersheds are dilute. Water quality is more similar between the Filson and Keeley Creek watersheds, compared to the St. Louis River watershed, because of the difference in glacial cover. Metal concentrations (copper and nickel, in particular) in surface-water samples follow similar patterns of concentrations in solid media, indicating the influence of bedrock on water quality in Filson and Keeley Creeks. Data from this study provide a baseline of metal concentrations and general water quality within an area of active mineral exploration.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological

The HIIWG examined several traits and factors associated with nonnative insects feeding on conifers (a conifer specialist) already established in&nbsp;North America.&nbsp;Using these data,&nbsp;the HIIWG identified which combination of factors best predicted the risk that a conifer specialist would have a high impact. The researchers then developed a statistical model to predict the probability that a conifer specialist yet to arrive in North America would cause significant damage to conifers if the insect&nbsp;became established.&nbsp;Using three factors, the model calculates the odds of any particular conifer specialist having a high impact on a North American conifer in a range between 1 in 6.5 to 1 in 2,858.&nbsp;This model&nbsp;is a valuable tool&nbsp;to help identify invading insects with the potential to be&nbsp;the most damaging if the insect becomes established in North&nbsp;America.

The installation was founded by the U.S. Army during World War I. It has been home to a variety of military organizations over the course of its more than 100-year history and currently houses more than 145 mission partners. The installation consists of two noncontiguous units, the Main Post, and a smaller area to the northwest, Fort Belvoir North Area (FTNA). FTBL encompasses 8.91 square miles.</p><p>There is concern that activities on FTBL, including a long history of training, operations, and maintenance, may have resulted in contamination of stream water, streambed sediment, and (or) soils. Of particular concern is the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Target Analyte List (TAL). TAL refers to “the list of inorganic compounds/elements designated for analysis as contained in the version of the EPA Contract Laboratory Program Statement of Work for Inorganics Analysis, Multi-Media, Multi-Concentration in effect as of the date on which the laboratory is performing the analysis” (<a href=\"https://www.nj.gov/dep/srp/guidance/tcl_tal/\" data-mce-href=\"https://www.nj.gov/dep/srp/guidance/tcl_tal/\">https://www.nj.gov/dep/srp/guidance/tcl_tal/</a>). Because of the potential for TAL contamination at FTBL, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with U.S. Army Fort Belvoir, conducted a survey of FTBL’s stream water, streambed sediment, and soils during calendar year 2019.</p><p>The terminology “ambient concentrations” is used in this report to represent the concentrations of the TAL and other constituents at the time of sampling. This is in contrast to “background concentrations,” a term that “refers to areas in which the concentrations of chemicals have not been elevated by site activities”. Although some of the samples collected for this project may represent “background concentrations,” there is no assurance that they do, so all data collected are described as having “ambient concentrations.”</p><p>The purpose of the study was to obtain environmental data to characterize ambient concentrations of EPA TAL constituents in stream water, streambed sediment, and soils in FTBL, Virginia. This report describes methods and results of sampling stream water, streambed sediment, and soils during 2019.

As part of a regional effort to characterize groundwater in rural areas of Pennsylvania, samples from 54 domestic wells in Clinton County were collected and analyzed in 2017. The samples were evaluated for a wide range of constituents and compared to drinking-water health standards and geochemical characteristics. The sampled wells were completed to depths ranging from 46 to 500 feet in bedrock that was of predominantly sandstone, shale, or carbonate lithology. Results of this study show that the sampled groundwater quality in Clinton County generally met most drinking-water standards that apply to public water supplies. However, a percentage of samples exceeded drinking-water maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) for total coliform bacteria (57.4 percent), <i>Escherichia coli</i> (<i>E. coli</i>) (25.9 percent), nitrate (1.9 percent), and arsenic (1.9 percent); and secondary maximum contaminant levels (SMCLs) for pH (31.5 percent), manganese (29.6 percent), iron (13 percent), total dissolved solids (7.4 percent), aluminum (1.9 percent), and chloride (1.9 percent). Sodium concentrations exceeded the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency drinking-water advisory recommendation in 16.7 percent of the samples. Radon-222 activities exceeded the proposed drinking-water standard of 300 picocuries per liter (pCi/L) in 59.3 percent of the samples. The only volatile organic compounds (VOCs) detected were acetone and methyl ethyl ketone in two separate samples; neither constituent exceeded drinking-water standards.</p><p>Higher median nitrate concentrations were found in the carbonate (3.26 milligrams per liter [mg/L]) versus shale (less than 0.04 mg/L) and sandstone (0.27 mg/L) aquifer subsets. Most of the elevated nitrate concentrations were associated with <i>E. coli</i> detections in the carbonate aquifers, where transmissive bedrock can facilitate groundwater contamination by human activities at the land surface.</p><p>The median pH of groundwater from the sandstone aquifers (6.53) was less than those for the shale aquifers (7.31) and carbonate aquifers (7.43). Generally, the lower pH samples had greater potential for elevated concentrations of dissolved metals, including beryllium, copper, lead, nickel, and zinc, whereas the higher pH samples had greater potential for elevated concentrations of total dissolved solids, sodium, fluoride, boron, and uranium. Near-neutral samples (pH 6.5 to 7.5) had greater hardness and alkalinity concentrations than other samples with pH outside this range. Many samples from the shale or sandstone aquifers, particularly those with pH less than 6.5, were identified as having serious potential corrosivity based on the combination of the calcite saturation index and the chloride to sulfate mass ratio; however, none of the samples from the carbonate aquifers was identified as seriously corrosive.</p><p>Groundwater from 3.7 percent of the wells had concentrations of methane greater than the Pennsylvania action level of 7 mg/L, and 48 of the 54 wells (88.9 percent) had detectable concentrations of methane greater than the 0.0002 mg/L detection limit. Greater methane concentrations were found more frequently in groundwater sampled from the shale aquifers than the carbonate or sandstone aquifers in the study area. Most of the samples containing elevated methane (greater than 0.2 mg/L) were located outside the area of the Appalachian Plateaus. The elevated concentrations of methane generally were associated with suboxic groundwater (dissolved oxygen less than 0.5 mg/L) that had near-neutral to alkaline pH and were correlated with concentrations of iron, manganese, ammonia, sodium, lithium, barium, fluoride, and boron. The stable carbon and hydrogen isotopic compositions of methane in two of four samples analyzed for isotopes were consistent with compositions reported for mud-gas logging samples from gas-bearing geologic units (thermogenic gas) in the Appalachian Plateaus region, whereas two others were consistent with methane of microbial origin or a mixture of microbial and thermogenic gas.</p><p>Forty-two percent of samples had chloride concentrations greater than 20 mg/L with variable bromide concentrations. Corresponding chloride/bromide ratios are consistent with low-bromide sources such as road-deicing salt and septic effluent or animal waste, or, in a few cases, high-bromide brine. Brines characterized by relatively high bromide are naturally present in deeper parts of the regional groundwater system and, in some cases, may be mobilized by gas drilling. The chloride, bromide, and other constituents in road-deicing salt or brine solutions tend to be diluted by mixing with fresh groundwater in shallow aquifers used for water supply. One of the four groundwater samples with methane concentrations greater than 4 mg/L had chloride and bromide concentrations and a chloride/bromide ratio that indicates mixing with a salinity source such as road-deicing salt, whereas the chloride and bromide concentrations and ratios for the other three high-methane samples indicate mixing with a small amount of brine (0.03 percent or less). In two other eastern Pennsylvania county studies where gas drilling is absent, groundwater with comparable chloride/bromide ratios, bromide, and chloride concentrations plus other element associations have been reported. Additional sampling and analysis, such as isotopic analysis of the dissolved gas, fracture analysis, and more detailed evaluation of surrounding land uses, may be warranted to better understand the origin of the methane and brine constituents in groundwater at specific locations.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston,

However, determining whether or not chlorophyll&nbsp;</span><i>a</i><span>&nbsp;(CHL) is limited by phosphorus (P) and/or nitrogen (N) is rarely considered using a probabilistic method in studies of hundreds of lakes across broad spatial extents. Several studies have applied a unified CHL-nutrient relationship to determine nutrient limitation, but pose a risk of ecological fallacy because they neglect spatial heterogeneity in ecological contexts. To examine whether or not CHL is limited by P, N, or both nutrients in hundreds of lakes and across diverse ecological settings, a probabilistic machine learning method, Bayesian Network, was applied. Spatial heterogeneity in ecological context was accommodated by the probabilistic nature of the results. We analyzed data from 1382 lakes in 17 US states to evaluate the cause-effect relationships between CHL and nutrients. Observations of CHL, total phosphorus (TP), and total nitrogen (TN) were discretized into three trophic states (oligo-mesotrophic, eutrophic, and hypereutrophic) to train the model. We found that although both nutrients were related to CHL trophic state, TP was more related to CHL than TN, especially under oligo-mesotrophic and eutrophic CHL conditions. However, when the CHL trophic state was hypereutrophic, both TP and TN were important. These results provide additional evidence that P-limitation is more likely under oligo-mesotrophic or eutrophic CHL conditions and that co-limitation of P and N occurs under hypereutrophic CHL conditions. We also found a decreasing pattern of the TN/TP ratio with increasing CHL concentrations, which might be a key driver for the role change of nutrients. Previous work performed at smaller scales support our findings, indicating potential for extension of our findings to other regions. Our findings enhance the understanding of nutrient limitation at macroscales and revealed that the current debate on the limiting nutrient might be caused by failure to consider CHL trophic state. Our findings also provide prior information for the site-specific eutrophication management of unsampled or data-limited lakes.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.watres.2020.116236","usgsCitation":"Liang, Z., Soranno, P., and Wagner, T., 2020, The role of phosphorus and nitrogen on chlorophyll a: Evidence from hundreds of lakes: Water Research, v. 185, 116236, 9 p., https://doi.org/10.1016/j.watres.2020.116236.","productDescription":"116236, 9 p.","ipdsId":"IP-113421","costCenters":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":455860,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.watres.2020.116236","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":396014,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"185","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Liang, Zhongyao","contributorId":279427,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Liang","given":"Zhongyao","affiliations":[{"id":36985,"text":"Penn State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":834941,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Soranno, Patricia A.","contributorId":279428,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Soranno","given":"Patricia A.","affiliations":[{"id":6601,"text":"Michigan State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":834942,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"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":834940,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Each guidebook chapter was created using a standardized template to summarize a spatial dataset or a group of closely related datasets. Datasets were selected according to standardized criteria based on input through a collaborative process involving researchers and natural-resource managers throughout the Pacific Northwest region. In each chapter, basic spatial and temporal information is provided for the dataset, along with a conceptual overview, glossary of key terms, links to download data and supporting documentation, a brief methods summary describing how the dataset was created, guidelines for dataset interpretation, assessment of uncertainties along with evaluation of caveats and simplifying assumptions, and information about potential and actual conservation applications of the dataset. Collectively, this information provides natural-resource managers with “snapshots” of a variety of datasets representing diverse processes and conditions, including climate projections, changes in hydrologic conditions, vegetation and fire-regime shifts, animal habitat changes, species movements, and topographic and soil conditions relevant to climate change. Along with other types of data and site-specific information, the datasets described in this guidebook have the potential to inform management of valued natural resources throughout the Pacific Northwest region in the context of adaptation to changing climate conditions.","language":"English","publisher":"Department of Interior Northwest Climate Adaptation Science

Despite its importance, winter limnology remains relatively understudied. Here, we provide a primer on the predominant drivers of freshwater lake ice cover and the current methodologies used to study lake ice, including in situ and remote sensing observations, physical based models, and experiments. We highlight opportunities for future research by integrating these four disciplines to address key knowledge gaps in our understanding of lake ice dynamics in changing winters. Advances in technology, data integration, and interdisciplinary collaboration will allow the field to move toward developing global forecasts of lake ice cover for small to large lakes across broad spatial and temporal scales, quantifying ice quality and ice thickness, moving from binary to continuous ice records, and determining how winter ice conditions and quality impact ecosystem processes in lakes over winter. Ultimately, integrating disciplines will improve our ability to understand the impacts of changing winters on lake ice.</p></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1029/2020JG005799","usgsCitation":"Sharma, S., Meyer, M.F., Culpepper, J., Yang, X., Hampton, S., Berger, S.A., Brousil, M.R., Fradkin, S.C., Higgins, S.N., Jankowski, K.J., Kirillin, G., Smits, A.P., Whitaker, E.C., Yousef, F., and Zhang, S., 2020, Integrating perspectives to understand lake ice dynamics in a changing world: Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, v. 125, no. 8, e2020JG005799, 18 p., https://doi.org/10.1029/2020JG005799.","productDescription":"e2020JG005799, 18 p.","ipdsId":"IP-118500","costCenters":[{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":379863,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"125","issue":"8","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2020-08-12","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Sharma, Sapna","contributorId":150332,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Sharma","given":"Sapna","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":16184,"text":"York University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":803226,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Meyer, Michael F. 0000-0002-8034-9434","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8034-9434","contributorId":244065,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Meyer","given":"Michael","email":"","middleInitial":"F.","affiliations":[{"id":37380,"text":"Washington State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":803227,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Culpepper, Joshua","contributorId":244067,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Culpepper","given":"Joshua","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":37455,"text":"University of Nevada","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":803228,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Yang, Xiao","contributorId":149701,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Yang","given":"Xiao","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":803229,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Hampton, Stephanie","contributorId":150338,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hampton","given":"Stephanie","affiliations":[{"id":5127,"text":"Washington State University, P.O.

That requirement prompted the initiation of the assessment of three existing watershed models that were developed to simulate those processes. Three existing rainfall-runoff modeling software packages—Hydrologic Engineering Center Hydrologic Modeling System (HEC-HMS) (using two sets of methods), Program for Predicting Polluting Particle Passage Through Pits, Puddles, and Ponds (P8), and Arid-Lands Hydrologic Model (AHYMO)—were compared to determine which provided the best balance of accuracy and usability for simulating storm runoff in small watersheds in the urbanized area of Albuquerque, New Mexico. Additionally, results of this study could help inform model users who have interest in simulating storm runoff in similar urban areas throughout the United States. Each model was used to simulate storm runoff in the Hahn Arroyo watershed, an urbanized watershed with concrete-lined arroyo channels in the northeastern quadrant of Albuquerque that exhibits flashy, monsoonal-driven storm runoff. Model results were compared to observed discharge data, according to literature-recommended performance measures and performance evaluation criteria. The HEC-HMS model using the Soil Conservation Service (SCS) curve number (CN) and SCS unit hydrograph methods ranked the highest when averaging the individual performance measures (Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency, percent bias, and coefficient of determination) rankings together across the hourly calibration and validation periods, followed by P8, which was tied with the HEC-HMS initial and constant approach. For daily rankings using the same rank-averaging approach, the HEC-HMS CN-based model and P8 were tied for the highest ranking, followed by the HEC-HMS initial and constant approach. Alternatively, rating performance using validation period results as an indication of the expected confidence in forecasted results for future conditions, the P8 model performed best for both hourly and daily time-steps, followed by the HEC-HMS CN-based model and the HEC-HMS initial and constant-based model. However, based on the literature performance evaluation criteria, the HEC-HMS and P8 models overall had marginally satisfactory performance only for operation at the daily time-step. Direct comparison of the HEC-HMS and P8 models to the AHYMO is difficult, given the different performance assessment criteria used to assess these models separately in this study, as recommended by the literature. The AHYMO results generally lacked precision, given the wide range in the performance assessment values across events in percent error in peak discharge, difference in timing of peak discharge, percent error in total runoff volume, and difference in duration of event relative to observed data. For some events, however, the AHYMO results were fairly accurate, and AHYMO was likely a good predictor of the timing of storm runoff and the shape of the hydrograph. This study did not assess the results for all potential applications of the models in the Albuquerque urbanized area. Further study may be required to assess the model performance capabilities in other modeling applications.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sir20205058","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the City of Albuquerque","usgsCitation":"Shephard, Z.M., and Douglas-Mankin, K.R., 2020, Comparison of storm runoff models for a small watershed in an urban metropolitan area, Albuquerque, New Mexico: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2020–5058, 30 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20205058.","productDescription":"Report: viii, 30 p.; Data Release","numberOfPages":"42","onlineOnly":"Y","ipdsId":"IP-113457","costCenters":[{"id":472,"text":"New Mexico Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":376561,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2020/5058/coverthb.jpg"},{"id":376562,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2020/5058/sir20205058.pdf","text":"Report","size":"1.63 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"SIR 2020–5058"},{"id":376563,"rank":3,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/P930WKCH","text":"USGS data release","description":"USGS Data Release","linkHelpText":"Input and output data used to compare storm runoff models for a small watershed in an urban metropolitan area, Albuquerque, New Mexico"}],"country":"United States","state":"New Mexico","city":"Albuquerque","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -106.71844482421874,\n              35.08395557927643\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.44996643066406,\n              35.08395557927643\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.45545959472653,\n              35.19345038573419\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.66694641113278,\n              35.19232810975203\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.71844482421874,\n              35.08395557927643\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","contact":"<p>Director, <a data-mce-href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/nm-water\" href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/nm-water\">New Mexico Water Science Center</a> <br>U.S. Geological Survey<br>6700 Edith Blvd NE<br>Albuquerque, New Mexico 87113<br> </p>","tableOfContents":"<ul><li>Acknowledgments</li><li>Abstract</li><li>Introduction</li><li>Description of Study Area</li><li>Watershed Model Descriptions</li><li>Study Methods</li><li>Model Data Requirement Comparison</li><li>Model Process Assessment and Model Limitations</li><li>Model Performance Assessment</li><li>Model Selection Considerations</li><li>Summary</li><li>References Cited</li></ul>","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":5,"text":"Lafayette PSC"},"publishedDate":"2020-07-26","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2020-07-26","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Shephard, Zachary M. 0000-0003-2994-3355","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2994-3355","contributorId":218999,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Shephard","given":"Zachary M.","affiliations":[{"id":472,"text":"New Mexico Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":793451,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Douglas-Mankin, Kyle R. 0000-0002-3155-3666","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3155-3666","contributorId":203927,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Douglas-Mankin","given":"Kyle","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":472,"text":"New Mexico Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":793452,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

We constructed a comprehensive N budget for the transboundary Nooksack River Watershed (British Columbia, Canada, and Washington, USA) using locally derived data, national statistics, and standard parameters. Feed imports for dairy (mainly in the United States) and poultry (mainly in Canada) accounted for 30% and 29% of the total N input to the watershed, respectively. Synthetic fertilizer was the next largest source contributing 21% of inputs. Food imports for humans and pets together accounted for 9% of total inputs, lower than atmospheric deposition (10%). N imported by returning salmon representing marine‐derived nutrients accounted for &lt;0.06% of total N input. Quantified N export was 80% of total N input, driven by ammonia emission (32% of exports). Animal product export was the second largest output of N (31%) as milk and cattle in the United States and poultry products in Canada. Riverine export of N was estimated at 28% of total N export. The commonly used crop nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) metric alone did not provide sufficient information on farming activities but in combination with other criteria such as farm‐gate NUE may better represent management efficiency. Agriculture was the primary driver of N inputs to the environment as a result of its regional importance; the N budget information can inform management to minimize N losses. The N budget provides key information for stakeholders across sectors and borders to create environmentally and economically viable and effective solutions.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"American Geophysical Union","doi":"10.1029/2019JG005577","usgsCitation":"Lin, J., Compton, J., Clark, C., Bittman, S., Schwede, D.,

In 2016, augmented flows occurred during the summer (July) and required the pumping of Sacramento River water by local Reclamation Districts into the Colusa Basin Drain and Yolo Bypass Toe Drain. In contrast, augmented flows in 2018 occurred in the fall (August–September) and used agricultural tailwater (primarily rice field discharge water) to create the flow pulse. Water samples were analyzed by the U.S. Geological Survey for a suite of 175 current-use pesticides and pesticide degradates using gas chromatography with mass spectrometry and liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry laboratory methods.

Overall, total pesticide concentrations tended to be higher at sites in the northern part of the Yolo Bypass and lower at southern sites, except for the farthest downstream site which received additional pesticide inputs from the Sacramento River.

To understand how these ecosystems will respond under potential future conditions, we correlated changes in National Land Cover Dataset “Back-in-Time” fractional cover maps from 1985-2018 with Daymet climate data in three federally managed preserves in the sagebrush steppe ecosystem: Beaty Butte Herd Management Area, Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge, and Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge. Future (2018 to 2050) abundance and distribution of vegetation cover were modeled at a 300-m resolution under a business-as-usual climate (BAU) scenario and a Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 8.5 climate change scenario. Spatially explicit map projections suggest that climate influences may make the landscape more homogeneous in the near future. Specifically, projections indicate that pixels with high bare ground cover become less bare ground dominant, pixels with moderate herbaceous cover contain less herbaceous cover, and pixels with low shrub cover contain more shrub cover. General vegetation patterns and composition do not differ dramatically between scenarios despite RCP 8.5 projections of + 1.2 °C mean annual minimum temperatures and +7.6 mm total annual precipitation. Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge is forecast to undergo the most change, with both models projecting larger declines in bare ground and larger increases in average herbaceous and shrub cover compared to Beaty Butte Herd Management Area and Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge. These scenarios present plausible future outcomes intended to guide federal land managers to identify vegetation cover changes that may affect habitat condition and availability for species of interest.","language":"English","publisher":"MDPI","doi":"10.3390/rs12152360","usgsCitation":"Soulard, C.E., and Rigge, M.B., 2020, Application of empirical land-cover changes to construct climate change scenarios in federally managed lands: Remote Sensing, v. 12, no. 15, 22 p., https://doi.org/10.3390/rs12152360.","productDescription":"22 p.","ipdsId":"IP-118423","costCenters":[{"id":222,"text":"Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":657,"text":"Western Geographic Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":455891,"rank":1,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.3390/rs12152360","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":436862,"rank":0,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/P9LJ1FI4","text":"USGS data release","linkHelpText":"Spatially-explicit land-cover scenarios of federal lands in the northern Great Basin, 2018-2050"},{"id":376686,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"12","issue":"15","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2020-07-23","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Soulard, Christopher E. 0000-0002-5777-9516 csoulard@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5777-9516","contributorId":2642,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Soulard","given":"Christopher","email":"csoulard@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":657,"text":"Western Geographic Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":793783,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Rigge, Matthew B. 0000-0003-4471-8009 mrigge@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4471-8009","contributorId":751,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rigge","given":"Matthew","email":"mrigge@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[{"id":223,"text":"Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center (Geography)","active":false,"usgs":true},{"id":222,"text":"Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":793784,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}
