We hypothesized that, for passerines, minimizing risk from avian nest predators and brood parasites is an important factor in selecting a breeding site.  Through the early part of two breeding seasons, we spot-mapped locations of Acadian Flycatchers (Empidonax virescens, territory selectors), Red-bellied Woodpeckers (Melanerpes carolinus, nest predators) and Brown-headed Cowbirds (Molothrus ater, brood parasites) in a 56-ha study area within an extensive bottomland hardwood forest.  We were thereby able to determine the order of flycatcher territory settlement and nest initiation in relation to risk of predation and parasitism, while accounting for habitat structure.  Male settlement was influenced by both habitat structure and risk avoidance.  However, risk trom woodpeckers was relatively more important in the first season and risk from cowbirds in the second, evidently due to differences in the relative abundance of predator and brood-parasite in each year.  For male flycatchers, settlement choices appear to be flexible in the face of changing 'risk landscapes.'  For females, habitat structure was the most important predictor of nest site selection.  Even so, there was evidence that females avoided cowbirds.  Surprisingly, nest site selection was positively associated with woodpecker abundance in the first season when woodpeckers were present in greater numbers.  Possible explanations for this contradictory result are discussed.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Abstracts to XXIV International Ornithological Congress, Hamburg, 2006","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":4,"text":"Other Government Series"},"language":"English","usgsCitation":"HazIer, K., Cooper, R., and Twedt, D., 2006, Risky business: Site selection by Acadian Flycatchers under threat of nest predation and brood parasitism, chap. <i>of</i> Abstracts to XXIV International Ornithological Congress, Hamburg, 2006, p. 102-103(abs).","productDescription":"297","startPage":"102","endPage":"103(abs)","numberOfPages":"297","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":200837,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a10e4b07f02db5ff5e1","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"HazIer, K.R.","contributorId":105827,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"HazIer","given":"K.R.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":331007,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Cooper, R.J.","contributorId":89077,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Cooper","given":"R.J.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":331005,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Twedt, D.J. 0000-0003-1223-5045","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1223-5045","contributorId":105009,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Twedt","given":"D.J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":331006,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Standardized monitoring efforts provide the data necessary to estimate population trajectories of many species so that management agencies can identify declining species before they reach the point of endangerment.  Species that occur in tidal saltmarshes in North America are under sampled by existing broad-scale monitoring programs.  We summarize existing local and regional survey efforts for saltmarsh birds and propose a standardized continental protocol for assessing the status and population trends of birds that breed in saltmarshes in North America.  The objective of this proposed survey effort is to create a series of interconnected monitoring efforts that will provide information on the status and the changes in status of terrestrial birds living in saltmarsh systems of North America.  We describe detailed field protocols for standardized surveys of saltmarsh birds across North America.  We recommend morning point-count surveys with an initial 5-min passive period followed by a period of call broadcast.  Surveyors record all individual birds detected (regardless of distance) for all species that are associated with saltmarshes and estimate the distance to each individual bird detected.  We provide recommendations for standardizing distance between adjacent survey points, how repeat detections across points are recorded, daily and seasonal timing of surveys, timing of surveys relative to tidal cycles, number of replicate surveys per year, and focal species for this standardized survey effort.  Recommended survey protocols include methods that allow estimation of various components of detection probability so that stronger inferences can be made based on trends in count data.  We explain why the various survey recommendations are made so that potential participants understand the rationale for various aspects of the survey protocols.  We also provide sample data forms and an example of how to fill out a data form.  These protocols build upon the Standardized North American Marsh-Bird Monitoring Protocols by encouraging those interested in saltmarsh passerines (and other saltmarsh birds) to conduct surveys using a standardized protocol similar to that being used for secretive marsh birds.  Standardization of this sort will allow data from surveys focusing on saltmarsh passerines to be easily pooled with data from surveys focusing on secretive marsh birds.  Implementing these standardized surveys in saltmarshes across North America will help document regional and continental patterns in distribution and abundance of all birds associated with tidal marshes.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Terrestrial vertebrates of tidal marshes: evolution, ecology, and conservation: Studies in Avian Biology No. 32","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":15,"text":"Monograph"},"language":"English","publisher":"Cooper Ornithological Society","publisherLocation":"Camarillo, CA","usgsCitation":"Conway, C., and Droege, S., 2006, A unified strategy for monitoring changes in abundance of birds associated with North American tidal marshes, chap. <i>of</i> Terrestrial vertebrates of tidal marshes: evolution, ecology, and conservation: Studies in Avian Biology No. 32, p. 282-297.","productDescription":"16 p.","startPage":"282","endPage":"297","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":200891,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4b16e4b07f02db6a543e","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Conway, C.J.","contributorId":33417,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Conway","given":"C.J.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":330828,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Droege, Sam 0000-0003-4393-0403","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4393-0403","contributorId":64185,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Droege","given":"Sam","affiliations":[{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":330829,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

Striking taxonomic differences in avian susceptibility have been noted, offering the opportunity to strategically select species on the basis of life history traits to examine aspects of pathogen virulence or host immunity.  We hypothesized that avian brood parasites would show increased resistance to pathogens compared to related taxa, because they have been exposed in their evolutionary history to a wide array of infectious organisms from their different parenting species.  The Brown-headed Cowbird (Molothrus ater) is a generalist brood parasite that parasitizes 200+ North American species.  Elevated exposure to other species? parasites may have created an unusual degree of pathogen resistance.  We compared the relative susceptibility of adult cowbirds to three closely-related non-parasitic species, Red-winged blackbirds, Tricolored blackbirds and Brewer?s blackbirds, to invading NY99 strain of WNV that is highly virulent for many passeriform birds.  Previously we had experimentally infected these species with two North American mosquitoborne encephalitis viruses, western equine encephalomyelitis virus [WEEV, Togaviridae, Alphavirus] and St. Louis encephalitis virus [SLEV, Flaviviridae, Flavivirus].   Our results showed that cowbirds exhibited significantly lower viremia responses against all three viruses as well as after co-infection with both WEEV and WNV than did the three related, non-parasitic species.  These data supported our hypothesis and indicated that cowbirds were more resistant to infection to both native and introduced viruses.

Static simulations of the response of coastal wetlands to sea-level rise using LIDAR and GIS lack the biological and physical feedback mechanisms present in such systems.  Evidence from current research suggests that biotic processes are likely to have a major influence on marsh vulnerability to future accelerated rates of sea-level rise and the influence of biotic processes likely varies depending on hydrogeomorphic setting and external stressors.  We have initiated a new research approach using a series of controlled mesocosm and field experiments, landscape scale studies, a comparative network of brackish coastal wetland monitoring sites and a suite of predictive models that address critical questions regarding the vulnerability of coastal brackish wetland systems to global change.  Specifically, this research project evaluates the interaction of sea level rise and elevated CO2 concentrations with flooding, nutrient enrichment and disturbance effects.  The study is organized in a hierarchical structure that links mesocosm, field, landscape and biogeographic levels so as to provide important new information that recognizes that coastal wetland systems respond to multiple interacting drivers and feedback effects controlling wetland surface elevation, habitat stability and ecosystem function.  We also present a new statistical modelling technique (Structural Equation Modelling) that synthesizes and integrates our environmental and biotic measures in a predictive framework that forecasts ecosystem change and informs managers to consider adaptive shifts in strategies for the sustainable management of coastal wetlands.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Catchments to Coast:  Australian Marine Sciences Association, 44th annual conference and the Society of Wetland Scientists 27th International Conference.

To evaluate and prioritize pollutant hazards for terrestrial vertebrates, a ?Contaminant Exposure and EffectsTerrestrial Vertebrates? (CEE-TV) database (www.pwrc.usgs.gov/contaminants-online) was developed.  The CEE-TV database has been used to conduct simple searches for exposure and biological effects information for a given species or location, identification of temporal contaminant exposure trends, information gap analyses for national wildlife refuge and national park units, and ranking of terrestrial vertebrate ecotoxicological information needs based on data density and water quality problems.  Despite widespread concerns about environmental contamination, during the past decade only about one-half of the coastal National Park units appear to have terrestrial vertebrate ecotoxicological data.  Based upon known environmental contaminant hazards, it is recommended that regionalized monitoring programs or efforts focused on lands managed by the Department of the Interior should be undertaken to prevent serious natural resource problems.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"People, Places, and Parks: Proceedings of the 2005 George Wright Society Conference on Parks, Protected Areas, and Cultural Sites","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":15,"text":"Monograph"},"language":"English","publisher":"George Wright Society","usgsCitation":"Rattner, B., Ackerson, B., Eisenreich, K., and McKernan, M., 2006, Environmental contaminant exposure data and monitoring priorities for wild terrestrial vertebrates at national parks in coastal and estuarine habitat, chap. <i>of</i> People, Places, and Parks: Proceedings of the 2005 George Wright Society Conference on Parks, Protected Areas, and Cultural Sites, p. 304-307.","productDescription":"4 p.","startPage":"304","endPage":"307","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":195892,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a14e4b07f02db602532","contributors":{"editors":[{"text":"Harmon, David","contributorId":111703,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Harmon","given":"David","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":507997,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":1}],"authors":[{"text":"Rattner, Barnett A. 0000-0003-3676-2843","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3676-2843","contributorId":95843,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rattner","given":"Barnett A.","affiliations":[{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":330774,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Ackerson, B.K.","contributorId":20853,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ackerson","given":"B.K.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":330772,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Eisenreich, K.M.","contributorId":37023,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Eisenreich","given":"K.M.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":330773,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"McKernan, M.A.","contributorId":6554,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"McKernan","given":"M.A.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":330771,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

During 2002 and 2004, nine black scoters (four males, five females) were tracked to breeding areas in Quebec, Manitoba, and Northwest Territories.  In addition, in 2001?04, seven surf scoters (three males, four females) were tracked to breeding areas in Labrador, Quebec, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut. Based on satellite telemetry data, locations of black and surf scoters in breeding areas were not significantly different in regard to latitude and longitude.  Presumed breeding areas were manually plotted on topographic maps and percent cover type and water were estimated.  Breeding habitat of black scoters was significantly different than that for surf scoters, with black scoters mainly using open (tundra) areas (44%) and surf scoters using mainly forest areas (66%).  Surf scoters presumed breeding areas were at significantly higher elevations than areas used by black scoters.  Some breeding areas were associated with islands, but the role of islands for breeding areas is equivocal.  These results aid in the identification of potentially critical breeding areas and provide a baseline classification of breeding habitats used by these two species.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Limnology and Waterbirds 2003.

Some of this uncertainty is a result of a lack of estimates of albatross demographic parameters such as survival.  To begin to address these informational needs, a database of albatross banding and encounter records was constructed.  Due to uncertainty concerning data collection and validity of assumptions required for mark-recapture analyses, these data should be used with caution.  Although demographic parameter estimates are of interest to many, band loss rates, temporary emigration rates, and discontinuous banding effort can confound these estimates.  We suggest a number of improvements in data collection that can help ameliorate problems, including the use of double banding and collecting data using a `robust? design.  Additionally, sustained banding and encounter efforts are needed to maximize the value of these data.  With these modifications, the usefulness of the banding data could be improved markedly.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Northwestern Hawaiian Islands Third Scientific Symposium.

It is acutely toxic to some birds at 5-15 parts per million (ppm) wet weight in the diet, and it can damage the central nervous system, impair reproduction, and retard growth and development.  The effects of MeHg on reproduction in wild raptors are poorly known, and experiments with captive raptors have not included measures of reproductive response.  In this study, breeding pairs of captive American kestrels (Falco sparverius) were exposed to environmentally realistic concentrations of MeHg in the diet and their subsequent reproduction was measured.  Egg production, incubation performance, and the number of eggs hatched markedly decreased between 3.2 and 4.6 ppm MeHg dry weight in the diet.  The percent of eggs hatched declined between 0.75 and 2 ppm MeHg dry weight in the diet and further declined to almost total hatching failure between 3.2 and 4.6 ppm.  The number of fledglings and the percent of nestlings fledged were greatly reduced at 0.75 ppm MeHg dry weight in the diet and began a final sharp decline between 2 and 3.2 ppm.  Dietary concentrations of > 4.6 ppm MeHg dry weight were associated with total fledging failure.  Mercury concentrations in a set of 19 `second-laid? eggs collected from all groups were related to dietary concentrations of MeHg and the reproductive responses of kestrels in each group.  Observed percentage declines in fledgling production caused by diets containing >2 ppm MeHg dry weight would result in the production of insufficient numbers of young kestrels for maintenance of wild populations.  Concentrations of total Hg in eggs from the highest diet group (5.9 ppm dry weight) were higher than egg concentrations reported for either wild birds or for captive birds fed dry commercial food containing 5 ppm MeHg wet weight.

Early attempts can be characterized as intuitive decision processes, and later efforts were guided increasingly by population models and associated predictions.  In 1995, a formal adaptive management process was implemented, and annual decisions about duck harvest regulations in the United States are still based on this process.  This formal decision process is designed to deal appropriately with the various forms of uncertainty that characterize management decisions, environmental uncertainty, structural uncertainty, partial controllability and partial observability.  The key components of the process are (1) objectives, (2) potential management actions, (3) model(s) of population response to management actions, (4) credibility measures for these models, and (5) a monitoring program.  The operation of this iterative process is described, and a brief history of a decade of its use is presented.  Future challenges range from social and political issues such as appropriate objectives and management actions, to technical issues such as multispecies management, geographic allocation of harvest, and incorporation of actions that include habitat acquisition and management.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"XXIV International Ornithological Congress, Hamburg, 2006, Abstracts","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":4,"text":"Other Government Series"},"language":"English","collaboration":"Symposia 16, Demographic mechanisms of population changes at large spatial scales","usgsCitation":"Nichols, J., Runge, M., Johnson, F., and Williams, B.K., 2006, Adaptive harvest management of North American waterfowl populations - recent successes and future prospects, chap. <i>of</i> XXIV International Ornithological Congress, Hamburg, 2006, Abstracts.","productDescription":"297","startPage":"28 (abs)","numberOfPages":"297","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":200887,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4affe4b07f02db697ccb","contributors":{"editors":[{"text":"Schodde, Richard","contributorId":112709,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Schodde","given":"Richard","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":508007,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Hannon, Susan","contributorId":111506,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hannon","given":"Susan","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":508005,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Scheiffarth, Gregor","contributorId":113316,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Scheiffarth","given":"Gregor","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":508008,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Bairlein, Franz","contributorId":111596,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bairlein","given":"Franz","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":508006,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":4}],"authors":[{"text":"Nichols, J.D. 0000-0002-7631-2890","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7631-2890","contributorId":14332,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Nichols","given":"J.D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":330785,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Runge, M.C. 0000-0002-8081-536X","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8081-536X","contributorId":49312,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Runge","given":"M.C.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":330786,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Johnson, Fred A.","contributorId":93863,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Johnson","given":"Fred A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":330787,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Williams, B.

Tidal and wind-driven fluctuations in water levels affecting marshes, their invertebrate communities, and their dependent waterbirds are manifested in daily, monthly, seasonal, annual, and supra-annual (e.g., decadal or 18.6-yr) periodicities.  Superimposed on these cyclic patterns is a long-term (50?80 yr) increase in relative sea-level rise that varies from about 2?4 + mm/yr along the Atlantic coastline.  At five study sites selected on marsh islands from Cape Cod, Massachusetts to coastal Virginia, we monitored marsh elevation changes and flooding, tide variations over time, and waterbird use.  We found from longterm marsh core data that marsh elevations at three of five sites may not be sufficient to maintain pace with current sea-level rise.  Results of the short-term (3?4 yr) measures using surface elevation tables suggest a more dramatic difference, with marsh elevation change at four of five sites falling below relative sea-level rise.  In addition, we have found a significant increase (in three of four cases) in the rate of surface marsh flooding in New Jersey and Virginia over the past 70?80 yr during May?July when waterbirds are nesting on or near the marsh surface.  Short-term, immediate effects of flooding will jeopardize annual fecundity of many species of concern to federal and state agencies, most notably American Black Duck (Anas rubripes), Nelson?s Sharp-tailed Sparrow (Ammodramus nelsoni), Saltmarsh Sharp-tailed Sparrow (A. caudacutus), Seaside Sparrow (A. maritima), Coastal Plain Swamp Sparrow (Melospiza georgiana nigrescens), Black Rail (Laterallus jamaicensis), Forster?s Tern (Sterna forsteri), Gull-billed Tern (S. nilotica), Black Skimmer (Rynchops niger), and American Oystercatcher (Haemotopus palliatus).  Forster?s Terns are probably most at risk given the large proportion of their breeding range in the mid-Atlantic and their saltmarsh specialization.  At a scale of 1?2 decades, vegetation changes (saltmeadow cordgrass [Spartina patens] and salt grass [Distichlis spicata] converting to smooth cordgrass [Spartina alternifl ora]), interior pond expansion and erosion of marshes will reduce nesting habitat for many of these species, but may enhance feeding habitat of migrant shorebirds and/or migrant or wintering waterfowl.  At scales of 50?100 yr, reversion of marsh island complexes to open water may enhance populations of open-bay waterfowl, e.g., Bufflehead (Bucephala albeola) and Canvasback (Aythya valisneria), but reduce nesting habitats dramatically for the above named marsh-nesting species, may reduce estuarine productivity by loss of the detrital food web and nursery habitat for fish and invertebrates, and cause redistribution of waterfowl, shorebirds, and other species.  Such scenarios are more likely to occur in the mid- and north Atlantic regions since these estuaries are lower in sediment delivery on average than those in the Southeast.  A simple hypothetical example from New Jersey is presented where waterbirds are forced to shift from submerged natural marshes to nearby impoundments, resulting in roughly a 10-fold increase in density.  Whether prey fauna are sufficiently abundant to support this level of increase remains an open question, but extreme densities in confined habitats would exacerbate competition, increase disease risk, and possibly increase predation.

We analyzed stable hydrogen isotopic compositions in tail feathers ($Dw) collected from 26 sites in 11 countries throughout the wintering range of the American Redstart (Setophaga ruticilla), a Nearctic- Neotropical migratory passerine bird.  Feathers were assumed to have molted on the breeding grounds, and $Dw was used to estimate breeding origin.  Values of $Dw were highly correlated with longitude of sampling location, indicating that breeding populations were generally distributed along the east-west axis of the wintering grounds.  Within the Caribbean region, Florida, and Bahamas, $Dw values were negatively correlated with winter latitude, which suggests that American Redstarts exhibit a pattern of chain migration in which individuals wintering at northern latitudes are also the most northern breeders.  To identify the most probable breeding regions, we used a likelihood-assignment test incorporated with a prior probability of breeding abundance using Bayes?s rule.  Expected $D values of feathers from five breeding regions were based on interpolated $D values from a model of continent-wide growing-season $D values in precipitation ($Dp) and were adjusted to account for a discrimination factor between precipitation and feathers.  At most wintering locations, breeding assignments were significantly different from expected frequencies based on relative breeding abundance.  Birds wintering in eastern and western Mexico had a high probability of breeding in northwest and midwest North America, whereas birds in the Greater and Lesser Antilles were likely to have originated from breeding regions in the northeast and southeast, respectively.  Migratory connectivity, such as we report here, implies that the dynamics of breeding and nonbreeding populations may be linked at a regional scale.  These results provide a key opportunity for studying the year-round ecology and evolution of spatially connected populations in a migratory species.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Patterns of migratory connectivity in two nearctic-neotropical songbirds:  New insights from intrinsic markers","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":4,"text":"Other Government Series"},"language":"English","collaboration":"OCLC: 75417389  PDF on file: 6763_Norris.pdf","usgsCitation":"Norris, D., Marra, P., Bowen, G., Ratcliffe, L., Royle, J., and Kyser, T., 2006, Migratory connectivity of a widely distributed songbird, the American redstart (Setophaga ruticilla), chap. <i>of</i> Patterns of migratory connectivity in two nearctic-neotropical songbirds:  New insights from intrinsic markers, p. 14-28.","productDescription":"vii, 88","startPage":"14","endPage":"28","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":202436,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a60e4b07f02db6355a8","contributors":{"editors":[{"text":"Boulet, Marylene","contributorId":112422,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Boulet","given":"Marylene","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":508048,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Norris, D.

USA consisted of over 809 hectares (2000 acres) of freshwater tidal wetlands before mandatory dredging removed most of them in the first half of the 20th century.  Much of this13 kilometer (8 mile) reach was transferred to the National Park Service (NPS).  Planning processes in the 1980's envisioned a restoration (rejuvenation) of some wetlands for habitat, aesthetics, water quality and interpretative purposes.  Subsequently, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in a cost share agreement with the District of Columbia reconstructed wetlands on NPS lands at Kenilworth - 12.5 hectares (1993), Kingman 27 hectares (2000), a Fringe Marsh - 6.5 hectares (2003) and is currently constructing Heritage Marsh - 2.5 hectares (2005/2006). The USGS Patuxent Wildlife Research Center in conjunction with the University of Maryland Biological Engineering Department was contracted to conduct post-reconstruction monitoring (2000-2004) to document the relative success and progress of the Kingman Marsh reconstruction primarily based on vegetative response but also in conjunction with seed bank and soil characteristics.  Results from Kingman were compared to Kenilworth Marsh (reconstructed 7 years prior), Dueling Creek Marsh (last best remaining freshwater tidal wetland bench in the urbanized Anacostia watershed) and Patuxent River Marsh (in a more natural adjacent watershed).  Vegetation establishment was initially strong at Kingman, but declined rapidly as measured by cover, richness, diversity, etc. under grazing pressure from resident Canada geese and associated reduction in sediment levels.  This decline did not occur at the other wetlands.  The decline occurred despite a substantial seed bank that was sustained primarily be water born propagules.  Soil development, as true for most juvenile wetlands, was slow with almost no organic matter accumulation.  By 2004 only two of 7 planted species remained (mostly Peltandra virginica) at Kingman which did provide almost 50% of the approximately 1/3 total vegetation cover remaining.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Catchments to Coast:  Australian Marine Sciences Association, 44th annual conference and the Society of Wetland Scientists 27th International Conference.

They were Kenilworth Marsh which was reconstructed in 1993 and Kingman Marsh seven years later in 2000.  Other studies were already underway looking at vegetation, seeds, soils and contaminants.  Even though these new wetlands were relatively small, together about 70 acres, it was felt this might be sufficient area to sustain and attract birds to the habitat.  Birds have been used elsewhere as wetland indicators and we hoped they could prove useful here especially in terms of numbers and species richness.  The study was conducted for almost four years (2001-2004) and was designed to ascertain if the recently reconstructed Kingman Marsh evolved similarly with respect to the avi fauna as Kenilworth which had the seven year head start.  Twelve observation points were established, six at each marsh, which were to be used weekly so as to alternate the high and low tidal regimes and the observation start times.  Additional notations were recorded for species while walking between observation points.  The course of the study became interrupted with the incursion of resident Canada geese particularly upon the Kingman Marsh site.  Goose herbivory coupled with lowered sediment elevations reduced vegetation cover at Kingman Marsh to less than one-third its intended scope while Kenilworth was barely affected.  The result was actually much less impact on the bird populations than on the vegetation.  In fact the additional mudflat area at Kingman may have actually helped attract some birds.  Together 177 species were identified at the marshes comprising 14 taxonomic orders and 16 families, 137 species at Kingman and 164 at Kenilworth.  However, Kingman actually attracted more birds than Kenilworth, whether or not Canada Geese were included.  At both wetlands winter usage was significantly greater than at other seasons; however, there were more species in the spring and summer.  Three functional guilds were looked at in particular: wetland users, freshwater marsh users and mudflat/shore users.  Mudflat users were greatest during the winter while marsh users were greater in the fall.  Additional useful data was collected relative to the Canada Goose impacts.  The interruption in marsh evolution at Kingman driven by the goose herbivory precluded the opportunity to use the avifauna as an indicator of marsh restoration success.","language":"English","publisher":"[USGS Patuxent Wildlife Research Center]","publisherLocation":"[Laurel, Maryland]","collaboration":"  PDF on file: 6589_Paul.pdf","usgsCitation":"Paul, M., Krafft, C., and Hammerschlag, D., 2006, Avian comparisons between Kingman and Kenilworth Marshes:  Final report 2001-2004, 79.","productDescription":"79","numberOfPages":"79","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":195890,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":91975,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://www.pwrc.usgs.gov/resshow/hammerschlag/FINAL%20VERSION_Avian%20Study.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a82e4b07f02db64af7b","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Paul, M.","contributorId":100096,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Paul","given":"M.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":327469,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Krafft, C.","contributorId":32263,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Krafft","given":"C.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":327468,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Hammerschlag, D.","contributorId":17335,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hammerschlag","given":"D.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":327467,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

The focus of the study was on the two main areas of Kingman Marsh, which were reconstructed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in 2000 using Anacostia dredge material.  Populations from this 'new' marsh were compared to those of similarly reconstructed Kenilworth Marsh (1993) just one half mile upstream, the relic reference Dueling Creek Marsh in the upper Anacostia estuary and the outside reference Patuxent freshwater tidal marsh in an adjacent watershed.  Benthic macro invertebrate organisms were collected using selected techniques for evaluation including the Ekman bottom grab sampler, sediment corer, D-net and Hester-Dendy sampler.  Samples were collected at least seasonally from tidal channels, tidal mudflats, three vegetation/sediment zones (low, middle and high marsh), and pools over a 3-year period (late 2001-2004).  The macroinvertebrate communities present at the marsh sites proved to be good indicators of disturbance and stress (Kingman Marsh), pollution, urban vs. rural location (Kenilworth and Patuxent), and similarities between reconstructed and remnant wetlands (Kenilworth and Dueling Creek).  Macroinvertebrate density was significantly greater at Kingman Marsh than Kenilworth Marsh due to more numerous chironomids and oligochaetes.  This may reflect an increase in unvegetated sediments at Kingman (even at elevations above natural mudflat) due to grazing pressure from over-abundant resident Canada geese.  Unvegetated sediments yielded greater macroinvertebrate abundance but lower richness than vegetated marsh sites.  Data collected from this study provides information on the extent that benthic macroinvertebrate communities can serve as indicators of the relative success of freshwater tidal marsh reconstruction.","language":"English","publisher":"[USGS Patuxent Wildlife Research Center]","publisherLocation":"[Laurel, Maryland]","collaboration":"  PDF on file: 6591_Brittingham.pdf","usgsCitation":"Brittingham, K., and Hammerschlag, R., 2006, Final report (2002-2004):  Benthic macroinvertebrate communities of reconstructed freshwater tidal wetlands in the Anacostia River, Washington, D.C, 50.","productDescription":"50","numberOfPages":"50","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":91976,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://www.pwrc.usgs.gov/resshow/hammerschlag/Final%20Benthic%20Report_0706.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":201426,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4ae0e4b07f02db6883d9","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Brittingham, K.D.","contributorId":75663,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Brittingham","given":"K.D.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":327478,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Hammerschlag, R.S.","contributorId":78050,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hammerschlag","given":"R.S.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":327479,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

USA consisted of over 809 hectares (2000 acres) of freshwater tidal wetlands before mandatory dredging removed most of them in the first half of the 20th century.  Much of this13 kilometer (8 mile) reach was transferred to the National Park Service (NPS).  Planning processes in the 1980?s envisioned a restoration (rejuvenation) of some wetlands for habitat, aesthetics, water quality and interpretative purposes.  Subsequently, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in a cost share agreement with the District of Columbia reconstructed wetlands on NPS lands at Kenilworth  - 12.5 hectares (1993), Kingman - 27 hectares (2000), a Fringe Marsh - 6.5 hectares (2003) and is currently constructing Heritage Marsh - 2.5 hectares (2005/2006).  The USGS Patuxent Wildlife Research Center in conjunction with the University of Maryland Biological Engineering Department was contracted to conduct post-reconstruction monitoring (2000-2004) to document the relative success and progress of the Kingman Marsh reconstruction primarily based on vegetative response but also in conjunction with seed bank and soil characteristics.  Results from Kingman were compared to Kenilworth Marsh (reconstructed 7 years prior), Dueling Creek Marsh (last best remaining freshwater tidal wetland bench in the urbanized Anacostia watershed) and Patuxent River Marsh (in a more natural adjacent watershed).  Vegetation establishment was initially strong at Kingman, but declined rapidly as measured by cover, richness, diversity , etc. under grazing pressure from resident Canada geese and associated reduction in sediment levels.  This decline did not occur at the other wetlands.  The decline occurred despite a substantial seed bank that was sustained primarily be water born propagules.  Soil development, as true for most juvenile wetlands, was slow with almost no organic matter accumulation.  By 2004 only two of 7 planted species remained (mostly Peltandra virginica) at Kingman which did provide almost 50% of the approximately 1/3 total vegetation cover remaining.","language":"English","publisher":"[USGS Patuxent Wildlife Research Center]","publisherLocation":"[Laurel, Maryland]","collaboration":"  PDF on file: 6590_Hammerschlag.pdf  6.2 MB","usgsCitation":"Hammerschlag, R., Baldwin, A., Krafft, C., Neff, K.P., Paul, M., Brittingham, K., Rusello, K., and Hatfield, J., 2006, Final Report:  Five years of monitoring reconstructed freshwater tidal wetlands in the urban Anacostia River (2000-2004), 101.","productDescription":"101","numberOfPages":"101","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":201430,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e49fbe4b07f02db5f484d","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Hammerschlag, R.S.","contributorId":78050,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hammerschlag","given":"R.S.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":327473,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Baldwin, A.H.","contributorId":24064,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Baldwin","given":"A.H.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":327470,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Krafft, C.C.","contributorId":82425,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Krafft","given":"C.C.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":327475,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Neff, K.

Environmental contamination and pollution processes are well recognized stressors addressed by its management policies and plans. A recent study indicates that contemporary terrestrial vertebrate ecotoxicological data are lacking for 59 of 126 Park Service units located in coastal watersheds exhibiting serious water quality problems or high vulnerability to pollution. Based upon these findings, a more in-depth evaluation of contaminant threats and ecotoxicological data gaps related to terrestrial vertebrates was undertaken at 23 Inventory and Monitoring National Park units in National Capital Region and Mid-Atlantic Networks.</div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"201.60799999999998\">Ecotoxicological data were compiled for each park unit through literature searches and meetings with Park Service personnel. Information on contemporary and on persistent legacy pollutants in air, water, soil, and terrestrial vertebrates (amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals) were evaluated. To identify contaminant threats in proximity to the 23 Park Service study units, data was gathered on National Priority List Superfund sites, Section 303(d) Impaired Waterbodies, the number and relative toxicity of current use pesticides and herbicides, Toxic Release Inventory sites and discharge of priority pollutants, and Fish Consumption Advisories. A metric was derived that described the quality and quantity of existing data for each park, and in combination with known contaminant threats, park units in need of additional study were identified.</div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"201.60799999999998\">Results demonstrated that over half of the Park Service study units are near Toxic Release Inventory sites discharging dioxins, polychlorinated biphenyls, lead or mercury into air or water, and fish consumption advisories are in effect at or near 22 of the 23 study units. Pesticide and herbicide use at the park units is minimal, with the exception of those units with significant agricultural leases. Despite highly regulated use, many of the pesticides and herbicides applied are believed to be highly toxic to amphibians, and some of the compounds are also highly toxic to birds. Only 70 reports were found that describe terrestrial vertebrate ecotoxicology data on or near the study units. Of the greater than 75,000 compounds in commerce in the United States, existing terrestrial vertebrate exposure and effects data in the pr esent study were limited to 58 legacy organochlorine pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls and individual congeners, insecticides and rodenticides, metals, and some contemporary compounds (e.g., polybrominated diphenyl ether flame retardants, and alkylphenol and ethoxylate surfactants).</div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"201.60799999999998\">Based upon these and other findings, ecotoxicological monitoring and research investigations of terrestrial vertebrates are warranted at several National Parks. These include Shenandoah National Park, Richmond National Battlefield, Chesapeake &amp; Ohio Canal National Historic Park, Valley Forge National Historic Park, Hopewell Furnace National Historic Site, Monocacy National Battlefield, and Harpers Ferry National Historic Park. The types of investigations vary according to the species present at these parks and potential contaminant threats, but should focus on contemporary use pesticides and herbicides, polychlorinated biphenyls, mercury, lead, and perhaps, emerging contaminants including antibiotics, flame retardants, pharmaceuticals, and surfactants. Other management recommendations include additional training for natural resource staff members in the area of ecotoxicology, inclusion of terrestrial vertebrate contaminant monitoring and the Contaminant Assessment Process (U.S. Geological Survey Biomonitoring of Environmental Status and Trends Project) into the National Park Service Vital Signs Program, development of protocols for hand ling and toxicological analysis of dead or seemingly affected wildlife, consideration of some alternative methods and compounds for pest management and weed control, and use of non-toxic fishing tackle by visitors.&nbsp;</div>","language":"English","publisher":"National Park Service","publisherLocation":"Washington, D.C.","collaboration":"Interagency Acquisition Agreement  F3992040005","usgsCitation":"Rattner, B., and Ackerson, B., 2006, Contaminant exposure and potential effects on terrestrial vertebrates residing in the National Capital Region network and Mid-Atlantic network, viii, 201.","productDescription":"viii, 201","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":201316,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":320942,"rank":1,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://nature.nps.gov/air/Pubs/toxics.cfm?CFID=23307971&CFTOKEN=bcf94406d30857b8-D86DBD88-155D-AD0C-81B255FF925F11D0"}],"country":"United States","state":"Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -79.8486328125,\n              36.870832155646326\n            ],\n            [\n              -79.8486328125,\n              40.463666324587685\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.1025390625,\n              40.463666324587685\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.1025390625,\n              36.870832155646326\n            ],\n            [\n              -79.8486328125,\n              36.870832155646326\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4afde4b07f02db69705e","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Rattner, Barnett A. 0000-0003-3676-2843","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3676-2843","contributorId":95843,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rattner","given":"Barnett A.","affiliations":[{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":327481,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Ackerson, B.K.","contributorId":20853,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ackerson","given":"B.K.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":327480,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}
