Mourning Dove (Zenaida macroura) and American Robin (Turdus migratorius) nesting activity was monitored in three organic and three conventional orchards during two breeding seasons.  Surveys were conducted to characterize the avian community within orchards under both management practices.  Organophosphorus (OP) and carbamate pesticides, known to be extremely toxic to birds, were repeatedly sprayed during the peaks in dove and robin breeding activity.  Spray card tests revealed that OP pesticides were deposited on 85.5% of the nests tested during routine spray operations.  The threat of direct pesticide exposure to eggs, nestlings, and adult birds was considerable.  Nest daily survival rates (DSRs) for both doves and robins, were significantly higher in the organic orchards than in the conventional orchards in 1991 and years combined (P < 0.05).  Species diversity was significantly greater in the organic orchards (H = 2.43) than in the conventional orchards (H = 1.79).  Results suggest that repeated applications of pesticides, within the conventional orchards, directly or indirectly, affected the reproductive success of doves and robins, as well as influenced species diversity within the treated orchards.   Organic orchards appear to provide more favorable nesting and foraging habitat for birds than conventional orchards.","language":"English","publisher":"Thesis (M.S.)--University of Maryland at College Park","usgsCitation":"Fluetsch, K., 1992, A comparison of the nesting success of mourning doves and American robins in conventionally managed and organic orchards, vi, 69.","productDescription":"vi, 69","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":201109,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4b27e4b07f02db6b0f0f","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Fluetsch, K.M.","contributorId":98420,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Fluetsch","given":"K.M.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":326817,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

Although the slope failures show no striking affinity for a particular depth as an origination level, there is a broad, primary mode centered at about 900 m. The resulting slides terminate at almost all depths and have a primary mode at 1100 m, but the slope/rise boundary (at 2200 m) also is an important mode. Slope failures have occurred at declivities ranging from 1° to 30° (typically, 4°); the resultant mass movement deposits vary in width from 0.2 to 50 km (typically, 1–2 km) and in length from 0.3 to 380 km (typically, 2–4 km), and they have been reported to be as thick as 650 m. On a numeric basis, mass movements are slightly more prevalent on open slopes than in other physiographic settings, and both translational and rotational failure surfaces are common. The typical mass movement is disintegrative in nature. Open slope slides tend to occur at lower slope angles and are larger than canyon slides. Further, large‐scale slides rather than small‐scale slides tend to originate on gentle slopes (≍ 3–4°). Rotational slope failures appear to have a slightly greater chance of occurring in canyons, but there is no analogous bias associated with translational failures. Similarly, disintegrative slides seem more likely to be associated with rotational slope failures than translational ones and are longer than their nondisintegrative counterparts. The occurrence of such a variety of mass movements at low declivities implies that a regional failure mechanism has prevailed. We suggest that earthquakes or, perhaps in some areas, gas hydrates are the most likely cause of the slope failures.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Taylor & Francis","doi":"10.1080/10641199109379879","usgsCitation":"Booth, J.S., and O'Leary, D., 1992, A statistical overview of mass movement characteristics on the North American Atlantic outer continental margin: Marine Geotechnology, v. 10, no. 1-2, p. 1-18, https://doi.org/10.1080/10641199109379879.","productDescription":"18 p.","startPage":"1","endPage":"18","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","costCenters":[{"id":678,"text":"Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":297238,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.er.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"10","issue":"1-2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"54dd2b22e4b08de9379b3269","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Booth, James S.","contributorId":93477,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Booth","given":"James","email":"","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[{"id":678,"text":"Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":538327,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"O'Leary, Dennis W.","contributorId":66793,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"O'Leary","given":"Dennis W.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":538328,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

The erosion results from a long term relative sea level rise coupled with day to day wind and wave action that ultimately favours erosion over deposition. At a site in the central Isles Dernieres, 8 days of wind and beach profile measurements during the passage of one winter cold front documented aeolian erosion and deposition patterns under both onshore and offshore winds. For offshore winds, the theoretical erosion rate, based on wind shear velocity, closely matched the measured erosion rate; for onshore winds, the theoretical rate matched the measured rate only after being corrected by a factor that accounted for beach face morphology.</span></p><p><span>In late February 1989, a strong cold front moved into coastal Louisiana. That cold front stalled over the Gulf of Mexico, resulting in 4 days of strong northerly winds at a study site on the Isles Dernieres. During those 4 days, the wind moved sand from the backshore to the upper beach face. When the cold front finally moved out of the area, the wind shifted to the south and decreased in strength. The onshore wind then restored some of the upper beach face sand to the backshore while increased wave activity moved the rest into the nearshore.</span></p><p><span>The theoretical estimate of 1·28 m<sup>3</sup>&nbsp;m<sup>−1</sup>&nbsp;for the rate of sand transport by the northerly wind compares well with the measured backshore erosion rate of 1·26 m<sup>3</sup>&nbsp;m<sup>−1</sup>, which was determined by comparing beach profiles from the start and end of the period of northerly winds. The theoretical estimate of 0·04 m<sup>3</sup>&nbsp;m<sup>−1</sup>&nbsp;for the rate of sand transport by the southerly wind, however, is notably less than the measured rate of 0·45 m<sup>3</sup>&nbsp;m<sup>−1</sup>. The large discrepancy between the two rates can be explained by a difference in the shear velocity of the wind between the beach face, where the erosion occurred, and the backshore, where the wind stress was measured. Using an empirical relationship for the wind shear drag coefficient as a function of coastal environment, the theoretical estimate for the rate of sand transport by the southerly wind becomes 0·44 m<sup>3</sup>&nbsp;m<sup>−1</sup><span id=\"_mce_caret\" data-mce-bogus=\"1\" data-mce-type=\"format-caret\">.</span></span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/j.1365-3091.1992.tb01995.x","issn":"00370746","usgsCitation":"Dingman, J.R., Hsu, S., and Reiss, T.E., 1992, Theoretical and measured aeolian sand transport on a barrier island, Louisiana, USA: Sedimentology, v. 39, no. 6, p. 1031-1043, https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-3091.1992.tb01995.x.","productDescription":"13 p.","startPage":"1031","endPage":"1043","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":224851,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Louisiana","otherGeospatial":"Isles Dernieres","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -90.98449916362239,\n              29.092384944604603\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.98449916362239,\n              29.01624841213905\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.65250653375439,\n              29.01624841213905\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.65250653375439,\n              29.092384944604603\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.98449916362239,\n              29.092384944604603\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"39","issue":"6","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2006-06-14","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505bb1f6e4b08c986b325500","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Dingman, John R.","contributorId":150408,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Dingman","given":"John","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":18016,"text":"CA Air Resources Board","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":374587,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Hsu, S.A.","contributorId":94161,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hsu","given":"S.A.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":374588,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Reiss, Thomas E. 0000-0003-0388-7076 treiss@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0388-7076","contributorId":4149,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Reiss","given":"Thomas","email":"treiss@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":520,"text":"Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":374586,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

These strata contain valley fill deposits, anastomosed channel systems and widespread coals. The coals constitute a relatively minor part of the Dakota Formation in terms of sediment volume, but may represent a substantial amount of the time represented by the formation. The coals are separated by clastic units up to 20 m thick.</span></p><p><span>The stratigraphically lowest clastic unit of the Dakota Formation lies above an unconformity cut into Jurassic rocks. Incised valleys associated with the unconformity are up to 12 m deep. Two discrete episodes of valley fill sedimentation are recognized, including a lower sandstone unit with conglomerate layers, and an upper, discontinuous, coal-bearing unit. After the valleys filled, the area became one of low relief where extensive mires formed. Peat accumulation was interrupted at least three times by deposition of clastic sediment derived from the west.</span></p><p><span>The clastic units consist of sandstone, mudstone or heterolithic ribbon bodies, stacked tabular sandstones, and laminated mudstones, and contain minor coal beds less than 0·35 m thick. Ribbon bodies are 1–9 m thick and 15–160 m wide, have pronounced basal scours, and are filled with both lateral and vertical accretion deposits. An anastomosed channel complex is suggested by the large number of coeval channels of varying dimensions, the variation in the structure and grain size of channel fills, and the presence of abundant tabular sandstones interpreted as crevasse splays. Although some sandstone bodies have well developed lateral accretion surfaces, the overall ribbon geometry indicates that mature meandering streams were not well developed. This is in contrast to modern anastomosed systems, which are commonly thought to be a transitional morphology caused by avulsion of a meander belt to a new position on its floodplain. Rather than being a transitional channel pattern related to river avulsion, the anastomosed channels of the Dakota Formation may have formed part of a large inland delta that episodically invaded widespread mires. The mires developed during periods when clastic influx was reduced either by high rates of subsidence close to the thrust belt or by deflection of rivers by emergent thrusts.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/j.1365-3091.1992.tb02138.x","issn":"00370746","usgsCitation":"Kirschbaum, M., and McCabe, P., 1992, Controls on the accumulation of coal and on the development of anastomosed fluvial systems in the Cretaceous Dakota Formation of southern Utah: Sedimentology, v. 39, no. 4, p. 581-598, https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-3091.1992.tb02138.x.","productDescription":"18 p.","startPage":"581","endPage":"598","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":225130,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Utah","otherGeospatial":"southern Utah","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -112.67664651654788,\n              37.84164146988323\n            ],\n            [\n              -112.67664651654788,\n              37.00456026130664\n            ],\n            [\n              -111.44358687219949,\n              37.00456026130664\n            ],\n            [\n              -111.44358687219949,\n              37.84164146988323\n            ],\n            [\n              -112.67664651654788,\n              37.84164146988323\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"39","issue":"4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2006-06-14","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5059fbd4e4b0c8380cd4dfbb","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Kirschbaum, M.A.","contributorId":79471,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kirschbaum","given":"M.A.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":374490,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"McCabe, P.J.","contributorId":57608,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"McCabe","given":"P.J.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":374489,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

Minor channels at the bases of these shales exhibit three general types of fill: (1) shale, (2) bioturbated, heterolithic strata, and (3) coal overlain by shale or bioturbated, heterolithic strata. Most of the scours at the bases of the channels were formed during a depositional hiatus that preceded transgression. Some may also have been formed by transgressive reworking of underlying estuarine and deltaic siliciclastics. The channel fills are bioturbated and may contain crudely cyclical rhythmites, subordinate and dominant siltstone-laminae couplets, wave ripples, and bimodal current ripple trends. The fills are interpreted to represent estuarine sedimentation during marine transgression. Channels are capped by sideritic, bioturbated sandstones that separate the fills from the overlying dark shales deposited under brackish- to marine-water conditions. Some of these sandstones may represent local transgressive surfaces. The occurrence of these types of channels in different parts of the coal-bearing Breathitt Formation supports the hypothesis of multiple transgressions during the Late Carboniferous in the Central Appalachian Basin.&nbsp;</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/0037-0738(92)90093-7","issn":"00370738","usgsCitation":"Greb, S., and Chesnut, D., 1992, Transgressive channel filling in the Breathitt Formation (Upper Carboniferous), Eastern Kentucky Coal Field, USA: Sedimentary Geology, v. 75, no. 3-4, p. 209-221, https://doi.org/10.1016/0037-0738(92)90093-7.","productDescription":"13 p.","startPage":"209","endPage":"221","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":224841,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Kentucky","otherGeospatial":"Eastern Kentucky Coal Field","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -83.37969067719774,\n              38.65378229149155\n            ],\n            [\n              -84.16282458709651,\n              36.63695154647705\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.44608082707052,\n              36.65181484510983\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.9468797904434,\n              36.774689225116845\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.60043606143404,\n              37.0924633587493\n            ],\n            [\n              -81.92278752199785,\n              37.439218071529645\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.16713836062353,\n              37.70730154410995\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.45569286120354,\n              38.067226741667085\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.60346110783942,\n              38.60054509776265\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.96605425603165,\n              38.73256281662067\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.37969067719774,\n              38.65378229149155\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"75","issue":"3-4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505bb6f5e4b08c986b326f73","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Greb, S.F.","contributorId":48294,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Greb","given":"S.F.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":374161,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Chesnut, D.R.

These contamination effects preclude straightforward determination of the isotopic character of mantle sources for both BLI and the anorthositic rocks.</div></div></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/0301-9268(92)90084-2","issn":"03019268","usgsCitation":"Ashwal, L., Wiebe, R., Wooden, J.L., Whitehouse, M., and Snyder, D., 1992, Pre-Elsonian mafic magmatism in the Nain Igneous Complex, Labrador: The bridges layered intrusion: Precambrian Research, v. 56, no. 1-2, p. 73-87, https://doi.org/10.1016/0301-9268(92)90084-2.","productDescription":"15 p.","startPage":"73","endPage":"87","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":225208,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Canada","otherGeospatial":"Labrador","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -65.04046943288049,\n              60.58003658170372\n            ],\n            [\n              -64.8640215760002,\n              58.058223552551766\n            ],\n            [\n              -64.02892105863678,\n              54.922897221029416\n            ],\n            [\n              -67.31535361754129,\n              55.37515415597392\n            ],\n            [\n              -68.35447607795484,\n              53.968648320593616\n            ],\n            [\n              -67.32348163702423,\n              52.651072576144315\n            ],\n            [\n              -65.04046943288049,\n              51.41119663151659\n            ],\n            [\n              -63.78833310417982,\n              52.04841715934056\n            ],\n            [\n              -57.203745785692306,\n              51.935160124917985\n            ],\n            [\n              -57.19684610410794,\n              51.48602276317298\n            ],\n            [\n              -55.526842021798544,\n              51.87536513013893\n            ],\n            [\n              -55.78139547812777,\n              54.163890352297145\n            ],\n            [\n              -59.67934564559819,\n              56.40657968959453\n            ],\n            [\n              -64.1783693821173,\n              60.637117341360295\n            ],\n            [\n              -65.04046943288049,\n              60.58003658170372\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"56","issue":"1-2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a80c8e4b0c8380cd7b1c5","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Ashwal, L.D.","contributorId":82060,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ashwal","given":"L.D.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":375785,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Wiebe, R.A.","contributorId":81258,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wiebe","given":"R.A.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":375784,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Wooden, J.

The granitoid source was important during deposition of the upper part of the succession (the Mazatzal Group) as shown by increases in K<sub>2</sub>O, Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, and Th in pelites with stratigraphic height, and increases in Zr and Hf and decreases in Eu/Eu<sup>∗</sup>, Cr, and Ni in in pelites of the Maverick Shale. Sediment provenance characteristics and paleocurrent indicators are consistent with deposition of the supergroup in a continental-margin back-arc basin.
