Seed production in perennial plants often shows strong year-to-year variation, a phenomenon known as masting. Masting is typically adaptive and driven by weather cues that synchronize reproduction by promoting or suppressing flowering and seed set. These cues, involving temperature, precipitation, and drought, differ across species and regions, yet a global synthesis is needed. Understanding such patterns is crucial, as reproductive responses to climate interact with resource constraints to shape plant fitness under climate change. Here, we analyze climate-reproduction relationships in 746 populations of 331 species worldwide using moving-window methods. We find that temperature is the dominant cue for reproductive investment, though its influence is weaker in the wettest and driest climates. In temperate and boreal regions, reproduction is most often linked to warmer conditions, whereas in the tropics, reproduction is disproportionately linked to cooler temperatures. Therefore, we expect rising temperatures to increase reproductive failures in the tropics, but to reduce interannual variability in temperate and boreal zones as favorable cues become more frequent. These results confirm long-standing theoretical predictions and provide a global framework for evaluating climate change risks to mast seeding.

We investigated the genesis of REE and lesser-known gold resources through fluid inclusion analysis of carbonatite, fluorite breccia, and smoky quartz vein samples. Physicochemical characteristics of inclusion-trapped fluids were evaluated using petrography, microthermometry, Raman spectroscopy, decrepitate mound analysis, energy-dispersive spectroscopy, laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, and noble gas isotope analysis.
Microthermometry results reveal three fluid types that affected carbonatite dikes within deeper zones that escaped near-surface, ore-grade REE enrichment: (1) high-temperature (330–432°C) magmatic fluid captured in fine-grained calcite; (2) REE-enriched alkali bicarbonate-sulfate brine; and (3) low-temperature (117–182°C) diluted magmatic or meteoric water. Multiphase brine-like inclusions contain burbankite, nahcolite, strontianite, celestine and alkali sulfate daughter crystals, linking them to early burbankite mineralization. Peripheral smoky quartz and fluorite occurrences at Smith Ridge, 1.5 km from the central carbonatite dike swarm, contain primary inclusions that are Cl-poor and rich in Na-HCO3-SO4, similar to secondary and pseudosecondary inclusions in carbonatites. Helium isotopes reveal a MORB-like source for carbonatite samples and an older crust signature at Smith Ridge, consistent with the proximal ridge-top exposures of Archean granite.
Results from this fluid inclusion study coupled with previous studies of carbonatite mineral paragenesis, show that light REEs (LREEs) were not mobilized great distances. Instead, burbankite crystallized within carbonatite from alkali bicarbonate fluids. With sodium retained in early burbankite, outward-emanating fluids enriched in potassium relative to sodium (higher K:Na) resulted in potassium–ferric iron metasomatism of silicate host rocks. This alkali fractionation was accompanied by fractionation of LREEs and heavy REEs (HREEs), with LREEs dominating the central carbonatite resources. In contrast, areas of peripheral REE mineralization at Bear Lodge are commonly characterized by higher HREE:LREE ratios. The K:Na ratio of associated fenites or alteration assemblages could be indicative of early crystallized burbankite in carbonatites and REE fractionation processes potentially leading to areas of concentrated HREEs with greater supply vulnerabilities.

The authors suggested that bighorn sheep may utilize the excavated spoil material from burrows as a mineral lick. To test that supposition, we collected soil samples from the spoil piles and undisturbed surface soil up to 1 m away at two desert tortoise study sites with bighorn sheep at the aforementioned site and another nearby site. We hypothesized that sodium concentrations would be greater in spoil than in nearby surface soil samples. Common major cations were quantified in soil samples using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry following microwave-assisted digestion to solubilize the fraction of elements that could become biologically or environmentally available. Mean sodium concentrations were greater in burrow spoil samples than in undisturbed soil samples at both sites, likely due to aqueous leaching of sodium from surface to subsurface soil horizons. Although we did not collect evidence of geophagy by bighorn sheep, the behavior is well known. However, trail camera photographs of bighorn sheep with their head next to the entrance of tortoise burrows suggests that they may periodically utilize sodium and other elements brought to the surface by desert tortoises that are otherwise unavailable to bighorn sheep on the surface.

However, due to the complexity of contributing factors such as multiple introductions, dispersal method, genetic admixture in founding populations, and variable propagule pressure, genetic patterns observed in invasive species may not always conform to a single theoretical expectation. Cuban treefrogs (Osteopilus septentrionalis) are invasive in peninsular Florida and sporadically in the Florida panhandle. Though O. septentrionalis has been occasionally reported in Louisiana since the 1990s, established populations were not present until the discovery of a breeding population in New Orleans in 2017. In this study we investigated the source of this novel population using existing and newly generated cytochrome B (cyt-b) mitochondrial gene sequences from the native and invasive range of O. septentrionalis. We recovered a total of 14 cyt-b haplotypes, nine novel and five previously published. Within the 95 Louisiana invasion samples, we recovered seven haplotypes including five novel haplotypes. The haplotypes most common in Louisiana were shared exclusively with west and east Florida localities in central Florida, indicating a possible source population. The presence of haplotypes private to the Louisiana locality suggests other unsampled localities may also be contributing to the Louisiana settlement. Metrics of genetic diversity across native and invasive localities did not significantly differ. Furthermore, the Louisiana samples had higher genetic diversity than any single location sampled within Florida. Thus, genetic diversity and our haplotype connectivity suggest the Louisiana population is derived from multiple introductions from Florida. Our study highlights how demographic and genetic analyses can be utilized to understand the source and future expansion potential of invasive populations.

and pelagic habitats on a daily timescale through diel vertical migration (DVM). However, quantifying how much Mysis biomass is exchanged between benthic and pelagic habitats at an ecosystem scale is difficult because of sampling limitations and variability in Mysis DVM behavior related to light and depth. Although Mysis are benthic-pelagic migrators, a portion remains pelagic during the day offshore in Lake Ontario, partially contradicting the assumption of population-level DVM over deep areas. To estimate the amount of biomass transferred from benthic to pelagic habitat via DVM in Lake Ontario, we estimated the portion of pelagic biomass at night originating from benthic habitat as the difference between night and day pelagic estimates from net tows along a bathymetric depth gradient. We then modeled the portion as a function of depth, extrapolated these depth-dependent estimates to an existing lake wide night-pelagic dataset, and summed amounts across depth strata. We estimated more biomass was transferred from benthic to pelagic habitat at intermediate lake depths (100–160 m) despite greater offshore (> 180 m) night-pelagic biomass. Our results suggest ways to improve estimates of Mysis habitat coupling and how to account for important factors such as depth and light for modeling Mysis DVM behavior at the population- and ecosystem-levels.

Precipitation events exacerbate these issues, due in part to increased erosion and transport of sediment from hillslopes to surface water. Both Mn and Fe are major redox-active elements in sediments that drive a variety of biogeochemical cycles, precipitate adsorptive phases, and can themselves be drinking water contaminants. By investigating Mn and Fe sediment geochemistry in post-wildfire sediment deposits, related water quality hazards can be assessed. To establish and strengthen this connection, we analyzed the geochemistry of sediment deposits and surface water in the Gallinas Creek watershed, New Mexico over 1.5 years post-wildfire. Analyses included particle size analysis, water extractions, sequential extractions and aqua regia extractions to determine metal partitioning in sediment deposits. Data demonstrate Mn concentrations were distributed across labile and reactive fractions, such as the exchangeable and oxyhydroxide fractions, while Fe concentrations were mainly associated with the residual fraction. Manganese concentrations in aqua regia extractions and several fractions of sequential extractions were also strongly and significantly correlated with fine-grained sediment while the same pools of Fe concentrations were not. Dissolved Mn concentrations in surface water were elevated (>50 μg L−1) multiple times over the 1.5 years post-wildfire, highlighting a relationship between sediment geochemistry and water quality. This work shows Mn in sediments mobilized post-wildfire has an influence on water quality and highlights how further investigation into Mn sediment redox processes and mineralogy post-wildfire can inform risk assessments and resource management.

We conducted comprehensive field surveys across the major drainages of northwestern Baja California to delineate the species' current distribution, identify critical threats to its persistence, and provide guidance for conservation actions. We documented the continued presence of A. pallida at 27 sites across 10 watersheds, ranging from sea level to 1,525 m in elevation. These include nine historically known sites and 18 newly recorded localities. The most pervasive threats we identified were habitat degradation, the proliferation of invasive aquatic species, and unsustainable water extraction. Despite these pressures, our findings confirm that A. pallida still occupies much of its historical range. However, urgent ecological research is needed to inform evidence-based strategies that ensure the long-term viability of this imperiled species.

Yet, some ecosystems appear to acclimate to multiyear drought, with constant or diminishing reductions in productivity as drought duration increases. We quantified the combined effects of drought duration and intensity on aboveground productivity in 74 grasslands and shrublands distributed globally. Ecosystem acclimation with multiyear drought was observed overall, except when droughts were extreme (i.e., ≤1-in-100-year likelihood of occurrence). Productivity losses after four consecutive years of extreme drought increased by ~2.5-fold compared with those of the first year. These results portend a foundational shift in ecosystem behavior if drought duration and intensity increase, from maintenance of reduced functioning over time to progressive and profound losses of productivity when droughts are extreme.

observations of vegetation cover at Great Basin experimental treatments.","docAbstract":"Vegetation treatments are frequently utilized in Western US rangelands to reduce woody plant cover in sagebrush stands threatened by increased wildfire risk and in pinyon-juniper woodlands expanding into formerly high-value sagebrush habitats. Despite widespread use of these treatments, monitoring data to evaluate long-term vegetation responses are often insufficient or absent. Long-term field experiments and remote-sensing based vegetation data may be complementary for assessing treatment effectiveness across temporal and spatial scales. The SageSTEP project experimentally implemented treatments at numerous sites across the Intermountain West and monitored the subsequent response of vegetation cover components with 15+ yr of field observations. However, while pretreatment data were collected in the year of implementation, long-term observations of pretreatment vegetation conditions are lacking in the SageSTEP database. Remote-sensing based time-series maps (1985–2023) of vegetation cover from Rangeland Condition Monitoring Assessment and Projection (RCMAP) could fill temporal gaps in monitoring data and scale findings across broader extents. We evaluate the relationship between pretreatment vegetation cover in the RCMAP data and the post-treatment response in both the RCMAP and field observations. Additionally, we explore the correspondence between SageSTEP field observations and RCMAP at various scales, and examine key factors related to the strength of relationships. Overall, SageSTEP and RCMAP data show a similar direction of treatment effect for each component, and to a lesser extent the magnitude of effect. SageSTEP and RCMAP data tended to agree most strongly where treatment effects were strong; when averaged across broader spatial scales; and for components such as tree and bare ground that are more easily distinguished spectrally. Remote sensing tools such as RCMAP, in combination with field-based climate and vegetation observations, can help assess postdisturbance recovery trajectories and facilitate regional decision-making around treatment alternatives, fire risk reduction, and protection of critical habitats.

However, there can be challenges to using museum data for analyses, such as spurious geographic information, misidentifications, and incorrect labeling. Museum records have been centralized by open-source repositories with flags for coordinate precision and out-of-range specimens, providing some information about record uncertainty in general. Verification of uncertain museum records could increase confidence in distribution data and improve understanding of biodiversity patterns and range dynamics through time. The goal of this study was to determine if museum records provide unique information about the distribution of the Yellow Lampmussel Lampsilis cariosa (Say, 1817), an at-risk freshwater mussel species. We created a dichotomous key based on a hierarchy of conchological characteristics to verify the taxonomic identity of flagged L. cariosa specimens and assessed records occurring outside of the species’ expected range as compiled from primary literature. Fifty percent of flagged specimens were confirmed as L. cariosa. Of the invalid records, 56% were misidentifications, mainly of other Lampsilis species. Overall, museum collections (1800s–present) contributed 32 unique watersheds not represented by modern survey records (1980s–present, comprising 92 watersheds) including 13 unexpected watersheds in regions of New York and Vermont (USA) and Québec and Ontario (Canada). Our study provides a reproducible method for the reverification of freshwater mussel museum records and highlights how these records can provide unique contributions to our understanding of the geographic range of a rare, at-risk mussel species.

However, there is limited research on how key species respond to turbidity caused by terrigenous sediment and how this response may change with increased water temperatures. This study investigated the effects of ambient and elevated turbidity (+ 26 NTU) in combination with ambient (27.1 °C) and elevated temperature (+ 4.1 °C; 31.2 °C) on the dominant Hawaiian reef coral Montipora capitata, collected from two Kāneʻohe Bay watersheds with distinct environmental histories. Using intermittent flow respirometry, we found that acute (12 h) exposure to elevated turbidity and temperature impacted algal symbionts (Symbiodinium spp.) but not the coral host, suggesting a potential delayed host physiological response. Corals from south Kāneʻohe Bay, where restricted water circulation and urbanization have degraded water quality, were more sensitive to stressors than those from the less-impacted northern sites, indicating that physiological responses vary by location and may be influenced by watershed conditions. The findings suggest that while short-term turbidity and warming impact Symbiodinium spp. immediately, prolonged exposure may lead to cascading effects on the coral host. Understanding these species-specific and location-dependent responses enhances our ability to guide restoration and conservation efforts for coral ecosystems facing both local (turbidity) and global (warming) stressors.

While earthquake focal mechanisms are frequently determined using P-wave polarities and S/P amplitude ratios with inertial seismometers, the dense sampling of DAS over potentially large portions of the focal sphere can aid our solutions. Here, we consider ∼200 regional earthquakes and thousands of S/P measurements on a DAS cable colocated with a network of inertial seismometers near Arcata, California. We demonstrate the S/P ratio measurements made on DAS are similar to those made on the inertial seismometers and can be used to constrain focal mechanism solutions.

Rivers worldwide have recently undergone desirable regime shifts related to re-oligotrophy, which is a notable and ongoing reduction in concentrations of total suspended solids (TSS), total N, total P, or phytoplankton. For example, the Upper Mississippi River, USA, has experienced major water-quality changes in multiple river reaches in recent decades. In this study, we sought to understand the timing and magnitude of re-oligotrophy in the Mississippi River over a 20-y period. We used 2 topological data analysis algorithms to address hypotheses related to the following questions: What were the order and timing of water-quality changes? What was the time period over which the major changes occurred? What was the magnitude of water-quality change before and after change points (i.e., specific years when water-quality conditions transitioned abruptly to new states)? We examined 6 water-quality state variables that defined the ecological regime for the Upper Mississippi River. In one river reach, we found that strong reductions in phytoplankton/chlorophyll a had occurred first (2008), followed by total P (2013), and last in TSS (2014). In a downriver reach, we found notable reductions for chlorophyll a (2007) but substantial increases in TSS (2013). In both reaches, the water-quality changes trended over ≥15 y, but the largest changes and a likely regime shift occurred in just 6 y. The timing (2007–2014) and range (~6 y) of water-quality changes were similar between the 2 river reaches, but the directionality of the regime shift indicated re-oligotrophy for the upstream reach and water-quality degradation for the downstream reach. Topological methods applied to long-term datasets can aid our understanding of re-oligotrophication and degradation processes and may help resource managers restore desirable regimes.

Over the past decade, ARUs have become a popular tool for monitoring birds for their potential to reduce the labor and costs of traditional in-person sampling procedures. However, uncertainty surrounding factors affecting detection of avian taxa using ARUs can inhibit their monitoring efficacy. Eastern Black Rails (Laterallus jamaicensis jamaicensis) are a secretive marsh bird listed as a federally threatened species in the U.S.A. Eastern Black Rail vocalizations are difficult to detect by field personnel, and numerous in-person surveys can be required to confirm their presence at a site. While ARUs are an alternative for detecting Eastern Black Rails, it is unknown at what maximum distance an ARU can detect their vocalizations. We evaluated factors affecting the detection distance of simulated vocalizations for ARUs in four marsh vegetation types under a range of environmental conditions. Detection distances varied across models, vocalization and vegetation types, and call volume. Kickeedo vocalizations were detected at greater distances, and detection distances increased for all vocalization types in open vegetation. High relative humidity increased detection distances, while louder background noise decreased detection distances. High wind speeds in cordgrass (Spartina spp.) decreased detection probability disproportionately relative to other vegetation types. Based on these results, considerations of survey area, vegetation type, and site condition can allow land managers and researchers to optimize Eastern Black Rail monitoring using ARUs. Given the substantial staff time needed to monitor this species, ARUs may increase the likelihood of detection and provide an efficient alternative to in-person monitoring.

Mysis species couple pelagic and benthic habitats in lakes by diel vertical migrations (DVM), transporting energy and nutrients through the water column and food web. Although Mysis are generally assumed to remain on the bottom during the day, some have been observed in the pelagic zone during the day, indicating incomplete benthic-pelagic coupling in some systems. The degree to which light attenuation and lake depth interact to affect occurrence of mysids within the water column during the day is understudied. We used standardized Mysis net sampling in summers 2020 and 2021 across nine north-temperate lakes to test the hypotheses that 1) Mysis remain pelagic during the day at depths with sufficiently low light levels, and 2) pelagic-caught individuals during the day are, on average, smaller than those caught at night. To test these hypotheses, we assessed light, dissolved oxygen (DO), Mysis densities, and size distribution between night and day across bathymetric depths. In deep lakes and darkly colored shallow lakes, Mysis suspended in the water column during the day where light levels decreased to their light avoidance threshold (∼10-5 to 10-6 lx). Mysis suspended in the water column during the day were smaller than those collected at night. Further, Mysis were not captured when DO reached levels < 3 mg/L, regardless of light conditions. Our results suggest that benthic-pelagic coupling by Mysis is mediated through light conditions, lake morphometry, and DO conditions, and may include some degree of size-dependent behavior.

use","docAbstract":"For nearly half a century, ecologists have sought to explain animal space use through characteristics of the environment (i.e., habitat). Recent evidence suggests animals also use memory of previous experiences to decide when and where to move. Yet, the relative influence of the two in explaining animal space use has not been resolved. Using six large ungulate species in the Rocky Mountains (USA), we evaluated the performance of a habitat selection model with 16 environmental variables and another with two variables representing previous use (i.e., memory). While memory outperformed the environment for two species and the environment outperformed memory for four species, the influence of memory and the environment was overall comparable. The environment best explained the space use of specialists, while memory best explained species with strong site fidelity. Our work challenges traditional habitat selection theory, showcasing that animals build their spatial preferences through experience just as much as merely responding to their environment.

We address this gap for 4 bat species that are listed, proposed for listing, or under Endangered Species Act listing review by highlighting a framework for estimating summer roost suitability with a presence-background approach to aid development of conservation policy and management plans. The 4 species of concern are the Little Brown Bat (Myotis lucifugus), the Northern Long-eared Bat (M. septentrionalis), the Indiana Bat (M. sodalis), and the Tricolored Bat (Perimyotis subflavus). Our estimates of summer roost suitability were developed for the eastern United States at a fine spatial resolution (250 m pixels) suitable for conservation planning across multiple scales. Summer roost habitat suitability was higher in areas with higher tree canopy cover for each of these species, though subtle differences were observed between the species that often use buildings (e.g., Little Brown Bat), tree crevices, cavities, and elements of dead or dying trees (e.g., Northern Long-eared Bat and Indiana Bat), and foliage (e.g., Tricolored Bat). To this end, roost suitability was not identical among species, and each showed subtly different relationships to the environmental covariates considered here. We also use a novel approach, gradient surface metrics, to quantify differences in the spatial pattern of summer roost suitability among the 4 species and found that tricolored bats and northern long-eared bats showed the most homogeneous and spatially smooth habitat suitability surfaces. Estimates of summer roost suitability developed here were also used to identify areas of good summer habitat where our models showed the least uncertainty that may be beneficial for targeted conservation, such as limiting disturbance to potential roost habitat. We also identified areas where additional data would benefit future summer roost modeling efforts. This work provides a first step toward developing multistate inventories of summer roost habitat suitable for implementing effective conservation planning at multiple scales.

The lake shifted to a turbid state in the 1990s with suspended-sediment concentrations sometimes exceeding 1000 mg/L and minimal light available in the water column for submerged aquatic vegetation. Resource managers intend to enhance bird habitat quality by restoring the lake to a clear, vegetated state. Ten mesocosms were installed to experimentally test the effects of wave-reduction barriers and flocculation (aluminum sulfate followed by lanthanum-modified bentonite clay) on dependent variables including turbidity, suspended-sediment concentrations, nutrient concentrations, and photosynthetically active radiation. Flocculation additions temporarily decreased turbidity by ≥ 90% and significantly increased photosynthetically active radiation by > 400% through the water column. Orthophosphate concentrations significantly decreased following the first flocculation addition. The clay did not cap the flocculated material, and turbidity increased within a few days from wind-wave action. Wind directions in the middle of the lake were variable, minimizing the effect of wave-reduction barriers on dependent variables. This study showed that the light required for submerged aquatic vegetation can be temporarily attained at the lakebed using flocculation. Future experiments could attempt to prolong the duration of low turbidity by effectively capping the flocculated material. The findings demonstrate the complexity of disrupting shallow lake feedback loops and offer insights for turbid-state lake restoration.

Cyanobacterial blooms can produce several groups of toxins, among which microcystin-LR (MC-LR) is one of the most abundant. Effects of MC-LR on avian microbiome have not been studied and studies in laboratory murines have been limited to metabarcoding of prokaryotes.
Methods: Using RNA shotgun sequencing, we compared the richness and composition of metabolically active prokaryotes, expressed virulence factors, antimicrobial resistance genes, metabolic pathways, Gene Ontology terms, enzymes, and proteins in mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) that were orally exposed to a sublethal dose of MC-LR for one week and unexposed birds.
Results: Richness and composition of all compared features did not differ between exposed and control birds and none were differentially expressed between exposure groups. However, richness and/or composition of all features except virulence factors and Carbohydrate Active enzymes had multiple-fold greater dispersion in exposed birds than in controls. This effect was especially pronounced in expressed metabolic (MetaCyc) pathways.
Discussion: Our results suggest that MC-LR exposure had a stochastic (rather than deterministic) effect on cecal microbiota, especially its function. Observed disturbance of the microbiota homeostasis is consistent with the Anna Karenina Principle. This principle has been documented in a wide range of eukaryotes using primarily microbial community metabarcoding. Although stochastic disturbance of microbiota function has been hypothesized, our study seems to be the first to demonstrate this in an experimental study.

orbital data of NASA’s Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover (VIPER) mission area in order to derive a variety of maps to help the science team identify scientifically interesting places for the rover to visit and to provide scientific context for our mission. Some of these maps also fulfilled engineering and mission design needs to enable safe and efficient landing and roving. We incorporated data from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera, the Lunar Orbital Laser Altimeter, the Mini-RF instrument, the Chandrayaan-2 Orbital High Resolution Camera, the Korean Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter’s Shadowcam, the Kaguya Spectral Profiler and Multiband Imager, and the Chandrayaan-1 Moon Mineralogy Mapper. We used a variety of techniques to build these maps, including stereogrammetry, shape-from-shading, ice stability depth and surface temperature calculations, and the horizon method for solar illumination and direct-to-Earth communications maps. Altogether, these maps allowed us to survey for boulders, evaluate features in permanently shadowed regions that VIPER might explore, provide mineralogic context for what VIPER’s instruments may learn, estimate the ages and radar properties of craters in the VIPER mission area, and evaluate the potential for gravity traverses with the rover. These data and techniques provided a rich set of information from which both the VIPER science team and engineering teams were able to draw in order to plan a safe landing and to plan a VIPER surface mission that will be both scientifically valuable and robust from an operational perspective.

support estuarine fishes?","docAbstract":"Evaluation of tidal marsh restoration success is typically based on the recovery of habitat size and target species. However, food-web structure may provide valuable insight into ecosystem functioning trajectories. Here, we studied restored tidal marshes of different ages (new, young, old; spanning 1–150 years) in comparison with nearby reference sites along the San Francisco Estuary. We asked: (1) How does restoration help recover energy pathways that support fishes? (2) Do fishes rely more on algal versus detrital pathways in restored sites?; and (3) How does food-web structure vary as a function of species origin and life history? To answer these questions, we sampled fish (n = 806) and basal resources (emergent vegetation and phytoplankton; n = 109) seasonally over two hydrologically contrasting years. Using stable isotopes (δ13C, δ15N, and δ34S), we calculated fish isotopic niche volumes, food chain lengths, and the relative importance of algal versus detrital energy pathways. We found that food chains in restored sites were 8% shorter than in their paired reference sites. Additionally, the young and old restored sites had 37% smaller niche volumes than their references, but the opposite was true for the new restored site (11% larger), illustrating the characteristic trophic surge of early succession. Fishes found in restored sites relied significantly less on detrital energy (7% less) than fishes found in reference sites, and resident fishes showed 12% higher reliance on the detrital pathway than transient species. Finally, most of the native niche volume overlapped with that of introduced fish, which was in turn 38% larger, and a similar pattern was observed when comparing resident to transient fish. Our findings demonstrate that food-web structure does not immediately recover with tidal marsh restoration, even if fish assemblages are species-rich; and show that transient trophic surges may complicate restoration success assessments of newly restored marshes. We contend that incorporating recovery of energy pathways as an indicator of performance may help strengthen monitoring and design of wetland ecosystem restoration projects.

Bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus), a piscivorous salmonid and one of North America's most threatened cold-water species, has declined significantly due to habitat loss, overfishing, invasive species, and climate change. While recovery efforts have primarily targeted these threats, the role of prey availability in influencing bull trout population dynamics under multiple stressors remains poorly understood. Using a stage-based integrated population model, we quantified the effects of non-native prey availability (kokanee; Oncorhynchus nerka), angling pressure, climatic variation, and density-dependent processes on bull trout population dynamics in Lake Koocanusa, a transboundary reservoir and river system (United States and Canada), over a 40-year period (1980–2023). Our results show that bull trout populations are regulated by density-dependent processes, including over-compensation in sub-adult recruitment and reduced adult survival at high densities. Increased kokanee biomass and restricted harvest significantly enhanced bull trout survival and abundance, whereas reduced water availability had a limited negative effect on sub-adult production. Model simulations indicate that as kokanee biomass availability increases, the number of bull trout that can be sustainably harvested also increases. In fact, a modest annual fishery (300 individuals) can be sustained, especially under moderate to high kokanee biomass conditions. These results underscore the importance of prey availability, including non-native species, in supporting bull trout populations. Effective management of threatened apex fish predators like bull trout requires addressing the complex interplay between environmental threats, prey dynamics, and density-dependent mechanisms across all life stages.

To better understand and quantify how land management practices, local climate conditions, and soil physicochemical properties affect these agricultural N2O emissions, we conducted a review of the peer-reviewed literature on N2O emission from corn [Zea mays L.] and soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] fields. We evaluated the seasonal, cumulative effects of three nitrogen fertilizer rates—no fertilizer (0), low (<188 kg N ha−1), and high (188–400 kg N ha−1)—tillage practices, local climate (precipitation and temperature), soil texture, and soil pH on soil N2O emissions. This meta-analysis included 77 articles for corn and 22 articles for soybean fields. Average N2O emissions during the corn rotation were 2.34 and 2.45 kg N2O-N ha−1 season−1 under low and high N fertilizer rates, respectively, and were both substantially (p < 0.0001) greater than those of non-fertilized corn fields (0.91 kg N2O-N ha−1 season−1). Non-fertilized soybean fields showed seasonal N2O emissions of 0.74 kg N2O-N ha−1, while low fertilizer application triggered a sharp increase (1.87 kg N2O-N ha−1) in N2O emissions by roughly 2.5 times (p < 0.028). Increased temperature did not significantly (p > 0.05) affect the emission of N2O from fertilized or non-fertilized corn fields. Regardless of fertilization and tillage practices, our analysis, including Principal Component Analysis, revealed that in corn fields, precipitation and soil pH are the dominant factors influencing soil N2O emissions. This study uniquely quantifies the influence of climate–soil factors, such as precipitation and soil pH, alongside agronomic practices, on N2O emissions, offering new insights beyond previous reviews focused primarily on fertilizer rates or tillage effects.

Most previous reports of secondary sap consumption relied on human observers and were based on either brief or incidental observations. However, modern technology can greatly enhance observational techniques and provide additional insights into the functional, community-level importance of sap wells. We used visual surveys, camera traps, and environmental DNA (eDNA) to identify secondary consumers of sap from wells created by red-naped (Sphyrapicus nuchalis) and Williamson's (S. thyroideus) sapsuckers among three functional groups of shrubs and trees in south-central Colorado: shrub willows (Salix spp.), Rocky Mountain maple (Acer glabrum), and conifer trees (Pinopsida). Camera traps and eDNA revealed additional sap-well visitors not identified from direct observations. Camera traps were effective for detecting nocturnal sap-well visitors such as small rodents as well as occasional diurnal visitors. Environmental DNA analyses corroborated findings from other methods and identified four additional taxa as possible sap consumers. The physiology of sap-well visitors, such as the ability to taste and assimilate compounds within sap, may aid in determining consumption versus contact when evaluating the results of eDNA analyses. Total vertebrate taxa detected using all 3 methods included 17 bird taxa in 10 families within 3 orders and 8 mammal taxa in 6 families within 4 orders. Shrub-willow sap wells attracted the most diverse vertebrate taxa (23), followed by Rocky Mountain maple (13) and conifer trees (10). Invertebrates in 13 families within 3 orders were observed feeding from sap wells during visual surveys. Because many secondary sap consumers perform ecological services such as pollination, seed dispersal, and pest control, the methods described here may aid in elucidating the importance of sap-well creators in supporting biodiversity and ecosystem functioning.

The Forestry Reclamation Approach (FRA) is a mine reclamation method that emphasizes best management practices in forestry. FRA practices have demonstrated success in establishing native forests and accelerating natural succession on coal mines; however, no studies have empirically examined the effects of the FRA on bird communities. Our study aimed to assess the avian community composition within young forests reclaimed using the FRA after one decade of forest growth. Whereas traditional reclamation practices often support grassland avian guilds, we expected that the FRA would provide habitat for shrubland and young forest avian guilds. Moreover, we sought to determine whether FRA forests would contain known avian indicator species of the native forest land cover. In June 2022, we conducted point count surveys in high-elevation, red spruce-northern hardwood (RS-NH) forests in the Appalachian Mountains of eastern West Virginia, USA. Using Bayesian multispecies occupancy models, we assessed avian guild occupancy and species richness within two FRA forest age classes (2–5 years and 8–11 years). We also examined avian community composition within two older RS-NH reference age classes to predict the future avian composition within FRA forests if reclamation succeeds. We found that the FRA breeding bird community included all of the avian indicator species expected to inhabit a young RS-NH forest. These results suggest that after approximately one decade, legacy mines reclaimed using the FRA are progressing toward a native RS-NH forest that supports associated forest bird communities.
