These potential co-management approaches represent agricultural and urban runoff, wastewater treatment plant effluent, and combined sewer overflow replacements. Twelve estrogenic compounds and their metabolites were analysed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. Estrogenic activity (E<sub>2</sub>Eq) was measured by in vitro bioassay. We detected estrone E<sub>1</sub><span>&nbsp;</span>(0.05–6.97&nbsp;ng&nbsp;L<sup>−1</sup>) and estriol E<sub>3</sub><span>&nbsp;</span>(below detection-8.13&nbsp;ng&nbsp;L<sup>−1</sup>) and one conjugated estrogen (estrone-3-sulfate E<sub>1</sub>-3S; below detection-8.13&nbsp;ng&nbsp;L<sup>−1</sup>). E<sub>1</sub><span>&nbsp;</span>was widely distributed and positively correlated with E<sub>2</sub>Eq, water temperature, and dissolved organic carbon (DOC). Among nonpoint sources, E<sub>2</sub>Eq, and concentrations of E<sub>1</sub>, soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) and total dissolved nitrogen (TDN) decreased by 51–61%, 77–82%, 62–64%, 4–16% in restored urban and agricultural streams with best management practices (BMPs) relative to unrestored streams without BMPs. In a wastewater treatment plant (Blue Plains WWTP), &gt;94% of E<sub>1</sub>, E<sub>1</sub>-3S, E<sub>3</sub>, E<sub>2</sub>Eq and TDN were removed while SRP increased by 305% during nitrification/denitrification as a part of advanced wastewater treatment. Consequently, E<sub>1</sub><span>&nbsp;</span>and TDN concentrations in WWTP effluents were comparable or even lower than those observed in the receiving stream or river waters, and the effects of wastewater discharges on downstream E<sub>1</sub><span>&nbsp;</span>and TDN concentrations were minor. Highest E<sub>2</sub>Eq value and concentrations of E1, E3, and TDN were detected in combined sewer overflow (CSO). This study suggests that WWTP upgrades with biological nutrient removal, CSO management, and certain agricultural and urban BMPs for nutrient controls have the potential to remove estrogens from point and nonpoint sources along with other contaminants in streams and rivers.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.143904","usgsCitation":"Duan, S., Iwanowicz, L., Noguera-Oviedo, K., Kaushal, S., Rosenfeld, E., Aga, D., and Murthy, S., 2021, Evidence that watershed nutrient management practices effectively reduce estrogens in environmental waters: Science of the Total Environment, v. 758, 143904, 14 p., https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.143904.","productDescription":"143904, 14 p.","ipdsId":"IP-096144","costCenters":[{"id":365,"text":"Leetown Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":454170,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.143904","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":383195,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Maryland","otherGeospatial":"Potomac watershed","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -77.113037109375,\n              38.91668153637508\n            ],\n            [\n              -76.46484374999999,\n              38.91668153637508\n            ],\n            [\n              -76.46484374999999,\n              39.68605343225986\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.113037109375,\n              39.68605343225986\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.113037109375,\n              38.91668153637508\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"758","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Duan, Shuiwang","contributorId":248866,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Duan","given":"Shuiwang","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":7083,"text":"University of Maryland","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":810108,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Iwanowicz, Luke R. 0000-0002-1197-6178","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1197-6178","contributorId":79382,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Iwanowicz","given":"Luke R.","affiliations":[{"id":365,"text":"Leetown Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":810110,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Noguera-Oviedo, Katia","contributorId":248867,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Noguera-Oviedo","given":"Katia","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":50048,"text":"The State University of New York","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":810109,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Kaushal, Sujay S.","contributorId":210125,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kaushal","given":"Sujay S.","affiliations":[{"id":38074,"text":"Univ. of Maryland","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":810111,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Rosenfeld, Erik","contributorId":248868,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Rosenfeld","given":"Erik","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":34258,"text":"Hazen and Sawyer","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":810112,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Aga, Diana","contributorId":248869,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Aga","given":"Diana","affiliations":[{"id":50048,"text":"The State University of New York","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":810113,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Murthy, Sudhir","contributorId":248870,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Murthy","given":"Sudhir","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":50049,"text":"District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":810114,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}

Porphyry-type deposits are formed above magma chambers where fluids hydrofracture rock at 700–350 °C and at pressures ranging from supra-lithostatic to supra-hydrostatic. The depth of formation ranges from 2 to 10 km and influences orebody geometries and the types and mineralogy of veins, sulfides and wall-rock alteration.

Eolian sediments consist of windblown sand,&nbsp;loess, and long-range-transported (LRT) dust, in order of decreasing particle size. Eolian sand forms some of the most dramatic landscapes in the world, particularly when these sediments are deposited as&nbsp;dunes&nbsp;in sand seas. The largest eolian sand seas are found in subtropical deserts and in mid-latitude basins that are arid because of rainshadow effects. Dunes can be helpful in interpreting past climates, both for understanding past moisture balance and paleowinds (past wind directions). Loess is windblown silt that can be recognized in the field and mapped as a geologic body. It can be many tens of meters thick, but usually decreases systematically with distance from its source or sources. Much loess is glaciogenic, the result of glacial grinding of bedrock into “rock flour” that is easily entrained by the wind, but some loess owes its origins to nonglacial processes or is simply inherited from silt-rich rocks. The geologic record shows that both glacial loess and non-glacial loess accumulated mostly during glacial periods, suggesting that particular environmental conditions are favorable for loess accumulation. These conditions include increased source sediments, a dry, windy environment with minimal vegetation cover, and a decreased intensity of the&nbsp;hydrological cycle. The same conditions apparently enhance the production of LRT dust, which consists of particles generally less than 10</span><span>&nbsp;</span><span>μm. At present, most dust sources are in the same regions where the largest eolian sand seas occur, although sandy sediments are not the only sources of finer-grained dust. LRT dust can be transported across oceans, from continent to continent, and may play important roles in the overall planetary radiation balance, as&nbsp;fertilizer&nbsp;to the world's primary producers in the oceans, and as a soil parent material. Geologic records of LRT dust transport can be found in&nbsp;deep-sea sediments, ice caps, lakes, distal loess deposits, and soils. These records indicate that, like loess, the flux of dust was greater during glacial periods. Although eolian sand, loess, and LRT dust all have rich geologic records in the Quaternary, there is an increasing recognition of the importance of all these features in the longer, pre-Quaternary geologic record.</span></p>","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Encyclopedia of Geology","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":15,"text":"Monograph"},"language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/B978-0-12-409548-9.12491-1","usgsCitation":"Muhs, D.R., 2021, Eolian sediments, chap. <i>of</i> Encyclopedia of Geology, p. 348-369, https://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-12-409548-9.12491-1.","productDescription":"22 p.","startPage":"348","endPage":"369","ipdsId":"IP-108752","costCenters":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":396901,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"edition":"2nd editionE","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Muhs, Daniel R. 0000-0001-7449-251X dmuhs@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7449-251X","contributorId":1857,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Muhs","given":"Daniel","email":"dmuhs@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":218,"text":"Denver Federal Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":837629,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

These same actions have also been associated with the restoration of highly altered frequent-fire forests. Perhaps the vital element in the compatibility of these treatments is that both need to incorporate the salient characteristics that frequent fire produced—variability in vegetation structure and composition across landscapes and the inability to support large patches of high-severity fire. These characteristics can be achieved with both fire and mechanical treatments. The possible key to convergence of fuel reduction and forest restoration strategies is integrated planning that permits treatment design flexibility and a longer-term focus on fire reintroduction for maintenance. With changing climate conditions, long-term forest conservation will probably need to be focused on keeping tree density low enough (i.e., in the lower range of historic variation) for forest

A user interface facilitates input of water chemistry data for one or two (mixed) influent AMD solutions and adjustment of kinetic variables. Graphical and tabular output indicates the changes in pH, metals and other solute concentrations, total dissolved solids, and specific conductance of treated effluent plus the cumulative quantity of precipitated solids as a function of retention time or the amount of caustic agent added. By adjusting kinetic variables or chemical dosing, the effects of independent or sequential treatment steps that have different retention time (volume/flow rate), aeration rate, quantities of reactive solids, and temperature can be simulated for the specified influent quality. The size (land area) of a treatment system can then be estimated using reaction time estimates (volume for a corresponding treatment step is the product of reaction time and flow rate; area is volume divided by depth). Given the estimated system size, the AMDTreat cost-analysis model may be used to compute approximate costs for installation (capital) and annual operations and maintenance. Thus, various passive and/or active treatment strategies can be identified that could potentially achieve the desired effluent quality, but require different land area, equipment, and costs for construction and operation.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.apgeochem.2020.104845","usgsCitation":"Cravotta, C., 2021, Interactive PHREEQ-N-AMDTreat water-quality modeling tools to evaluate performance and design of treatment systems for acid mine drainage: Applied Geochemistry, v. 126, 104845, 17 p., https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apgeochem.2020.104845.","productDescription":"104845, 17 p.","ipdsId":"IP-119826","costCenters":[{"id":532,"text":"Pennsylvania Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":454184,"rank":1,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apgeochem.2020.104845","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":436630,"rank":0,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/P9QEE3D5","text":"USGS data release","linkHelpText":"Interactive PHREEQ-N-AMDTreat Water-Quality Modeling Tools to Evaluate Performance and Design of Treatment Systems for Acid Mine Drainage (software download)"},{"id":385122,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"126","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Cravotta, Charles A.

Imaging sonar can be used to transform active sound waves into visual data, making it possible to obtain continuous underwater observations on the presence and interspecific interactions between predator‐size fish and prey (juvenile salmonids). Hourly counts of smolt‐size fish tracks, diel phase, water clarity and river discharge were used as covariates within a zero‐inflated Poisson model to determine how these factors may influence the number of predators in front of the FSC. Both the number of smolt‐size fish tracks and diel phase had the strongest effects on the number of predator‐size fish tracks, with more predator‐size fish tracks observed during the daytime, and as the number of smolt‐size fish tracks increased. Additionally, the presence of predator‐size fish may affect the abundance and direction of travel of juvenile salmonids, as fewer smolt‐size fish were observed when predators were present, and a greater proportion of smolt‐size fish were observed travelling away from the FSC when predator‐size fish were present. This study provides estimates of predator and prey fish abundance in the vicinity of surface collection systems at moderate‐sized hydropower projects and could help resource managers better understand mechanisms that can influence the survival and passage behaviour of juvenile salmonids using surface collection structures at dams.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/fme.12465","usgsCitation":"Smith, C.D., Plumb, J., Adams, N.S., and Wyatt, G.J., 2021, Predator and prey events at the entrance of a surface‐oriented fish collector at North Fork Dam, Oregon: Fisheries Management and Ecology, v. 28, no. 2, p. 172-182, https://doi.org/10.1111/fme.12465.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"172","endPage":"182","ipdsId":"IP-097283","costCenters":[{"id":654,"text":"Western Fisheries Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":384347,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United  States","state":"Oregon","city":"Estacada","otherGeospatial":"North Fork Dam","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -122.38632202148438,\n              45.273920035433605\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.27645874023438,\n              45.273920035433605\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.27645874023438,\n              45.319323121350145\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.38632202148438,\n              45.319323121350145\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.38632202148438,\n              45.273920035433605\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"28","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Smith, Collin D. 0000-0003-4184-5686 cdsmith@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4184-5686","contributorId":3111,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Smith","given":"Collin","email":"cdsmith@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[{"id":654,"text":"Western Fisheries Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":811722,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Plumb, John M. 0000-0003-4255-1612","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4255-1612","contributorId":220178,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Plumb","given":"John","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":654,"text":"Western Fisheries Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":811723,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Adams, Noah S. 0000-0002-8354-0293 nadams@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8354-0293","contributorId":3521,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Adams","given":"Noah","email":"nadams@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[{"id":654,"text":"Western Fisheries Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":811724,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Wyatt, Garth J","contributorId":214904,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Wyatt","given":"Garth","email":"","middleInitial":"J","affiliations":[{"id":39135,"text":"Portland General Electric, 33831 Faraday Rd., Estacada, Oregon 97023","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":811725,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

A long-term perspective would enable assessment of the historical range of variability in forest ecosystems and better determination of recent forest dynamics and historical thresholds. The objectives of this study were to (1) develop tree-ring chronologies for Engelmann spruce and Douglas fir growing at the study location, (2) correlate the annual ring widths of each species to monthly climate variables, (3) examine the instrumental climate data for regimes shifts in the mean state of variables, and (4) determine when ecological disturbances occurred through a quantification of growth releases. Finally, we discuss both climate-growth relationships and growth releases in the context of climate regime shifts and known forest disturbances. Engelmann spruce and Douglas fir showed some similar climate responses using moving correlation analysis including negative correlations between ring width and June – August current year temperature and previous growing season temperature. Regime shift analysis indicated significant (<i>p</i>&nbsp;&lt;&nbsp;0.05) shifts in minimum and maximum GYE temperature in the latter half of the 20th century. Disturbance analysis indicated that both tree species responded to wildfire and insect outbreak events with growth releases in up to 25% of the trees. Disentangling the influence of climate regime shifts and forest disturbances on the climate-growth relationships can be difficult because climate and forest disturbances are intricately linked. Our evidence indicates that regime shifts in monthly climate variables and forest disturbances as recorded by growth releases can influence the ring width response to climate over time.

Interstitial spaces created by the structure of rocky reefs form microenvironments where incubating embryos and juvenile fish are potentially protected from predators and physical displacement. However, if interstitial spaces are filled or blocked by sediment or biofouling, the reef structure may lose these benefits. Common practices to restore reef habitat include augmentation of existing reef structures or construction of new reefs, though these practices can be costly. We explored an alternative approach for reef remediation. In 2018, we developed two benthic sled cleaning devices that used either propulsion or pressurized water jets and were towed behind a small vessel to clean reefs. We used the devices to clean two impaired natural rocky reefs in Saginaw Bay, Lake Huron. We indexed effectiveness of cleaning by measured changes in substrate relative hardness before and after cleaning. A biological response to reef cleaning was also measured by egg deposition of fall (Lake Whitefish<span>&nbsp;</span><i>Coregonus clupeaformis</i>) and spring (Walleye<span>&nbsp;</span><i>Sander vitreus</i>) lithophilic spawners. We found that our propulsion cleaning device was more effective in increasing substrate relative hardness than was the water jet device, although this was not consistent among all study locations. We also found that egg deposition on study plots was variable, but in general, egg deposition was highest on study plots that had the greatest increases in relative hardness post‐cleaning. The practicality of cleaning devices is likely related to the magnitude of site‐specific degradation. Our results indicate that the use of these or similar devices can potentially increase the quality of spawning habitat by displacing sediments that have deposited on reef structures.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"American Fisheries Society","doi":"10.1002/nafm.10557","usgsCitation":"Gatch, A., Koenigbauer, S., Roseman, E., and Hook, T., 2021, Assessment of two techniques for remediation of lacustrine rocky reef spawning habitat: North American Journal of Fisheries Management, v. 41, no. 2, p. 484-497, https://doi.org/10.1002/nafm.10557.","productDescription":"16 p.","startPage":"484","endPage":"497","ipdsId":"IP-122227","costCenters":[{"id":324,"text":"Great Lakes Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":467264,"rank":0,"type":{"id":41,"text":"Open Access External Repository Page"},"url":"https://repository.library.noaa.gov/view/noaa/62230","text":"External Repository"},{"id":383819,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"41","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2020-11-30","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Gatch, Alex","contributorId":222574,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Gatch","given":"Alex","affiliations":[{"id":13186,"text":"Purdue University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":811301,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Koenigbauer, S.K.","contributorId":222575,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Koenigbauer","given":"S.K.","affiliations":[{"id":13186,"text":"Purdue University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":811302,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Roseman, Edward F. 0000-0002-5315-9838","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5315-9838","contributorId":217909,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Roseman","given":"Edward F.","affiliations":[{"id":324,"text":"Great Lakes Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":811303,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Hook, T.","contributorId":222576,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hook","given":"T.","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":13186,"text":"Purdue University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":811304,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

However, attributing biotic patterns to specific stressors is difficult given the dearth of preimpact studies and prevalence of confounding factors. Analysing species distributions and abundances, especially stratified by species traits, provides insights into how assemblage composition shifts occur. We evaluated stream habitats and fish assemblages along a mining intensity gradient in 83 headwater (2nd- and 3rd-order) streams of the upper Clinch and Powell river basins in Virginia. Our multivariate gradient (MINE.PC1) was based on percentages of watershed area covered by surface mine, underground mine and valley fill to represent spatial variance in mining intensity. MINE.PC1 was positively correlated with conductivity and percentage of substrate as cobble. Forty fish-assemblage metrics were analysed via boosted regression trees to assess assemblage responses to mining intensity, while accounting for environmental variation and spatial structure among sites. Conductivity and MINE.PC1 were strongly negatively related to occurrences of Fantail Darter (</span><i>Etheostoma flabellare</i><span>) and sculpin (</span><i>Cottus</i><span>) spp. Several taxonomic, trophic and reproductive metrics of assemblage composition responded strongly to mining intensity or its instream correlates. For example, coal mining favoured omnivore-herbivores, but inhibited invertivores, simple lithophils and nonsimple nonlithophils. We revealed distinct negative and positive responses to mining-related stressors, which suggest changes to macroinvertebrate prey availability and/or contaminant loads contribute to fish extirpations in coalfield streams. Future assessments of mining impacts on fish assemblages could be more instructive by including characterisations of physicochemical stressors and regionally calibrated biotic metrics with demonstrated sensitivity to mining.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/eff.12588","usgsCitation":"Martin, Z.P., Angermeier, P.L., Ciparis, S., and Orth, D., 2021, Coal-mining intensity influences species and trait distributions of stream fishes in two Central Appalachian watersheds: Ecology of Freshwater Fish, v. 30, no. 3, p. 347-365, https://doi.org/10.1111/eff.12588.","productDescription":"19 p.","startPage":"347","endPage":"365","ipdsId":"IP-113479","costCenters":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":454189,"rank":0,"type":{"id":41,"text":"Open Access External Repository Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1111/eff.12588","text":"External Repository"},{"id":396022,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Virginia","otherGeospatial":"Powell River, upper Clinch River","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -81.71630859375,\n              37.153749608429415\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.03765869140625,\n              37.470498470798724\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.89459228515624,\n              36.96306042436515\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.6444091796875,\n              36.61773216000592\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.694091796875,\n              36.602299135790446\n            ],\n            [\n              -81.71630859375,\n              37.153749608429415\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"30","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2020-11-29","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Martin, Zachary P. 0000-0001-5779-3548 zmartin@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5779-3548","contributorId":279461,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Martin","given":"Zachary","email":"zmartin@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":36967,"text":"Virginia Tech University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":834958,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Angermeier, Paul L. 0000-0003-2864-170X biota@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2864-170X","contributorId":166679,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Angermeier","given":"Paul","email":"biota@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":834957,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Ciparis, Serena","contributorId":279464,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Ciparis","given":"Serena","affiliations":[{"id":12428,"text":"U.

Today, Utah prairie dogs exist in small, isolated populations, making them less demographically stable and more susceptible to erosion of genetic variation by genetic drift. We characterized patterns of genetic structure at neutral and putatively adaptive loci in order to evaluate the relative effects of genetic drift and local adaptation on population divergence. We sampled individuals across the Utah prairie dog species range and generated 2,955 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using double digest restriction site associated DNA sequencing (ddRAD). Genetic diversity was lower in low elevation sites compared to high elevation sites. Population divergence was high among sites and followed an isolation‐by‐distance (IBD) model. Our results indicate that genetic drift plays a substantial role in the population divergence of the Utah prairie dog, and colonies would likely benefit from translocation of individuals between recovery units, which are characterized by distinct elevations, despite the detection of environmental associations with outlier loci. By understanding the processes that shape genetic structure, better informed decisions can be made with respect to the management of threatened species to ensure that adaptation is not stymied.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/eva.13179","usgsCitation":"Giglio, R.M., Rocke, T.E., Osorio, J., and Latch, E.K., 2021, Characterizing patterns of

To enable predictions of ice breakup in the future, we analyzed a dataset of mountain lake ice breakup dates derived from remote sensing and historical downscaled climate data. We evaluated drivers of ice breakup, constructed a predictive statistical model, and developed projections of mountain lake ice breakup date with global climate models. Using Random Forest analysis, we determined that winter and spring cumulative snow fraction (portion of precipitation falling as snow) and air temperature are the strongest predictors of ice breakup on mountain lakes.

We distinguish five types of basalt there based on their amount and kind of slab component: backarc basalts (BAB) with little or no slab component, modified BAB with slight amounts, reararc (RA) with more, remnants of the preexisting arc (Colville Ridge horsts), and arc front volcanoes within the HT. Previous subarc mantle is quickly removed and replaced by more fertile mantle with less slab component. The ambient mantle is “Pacific” isotopically, and more enriched in Nb/Yb and Nd and Hf isotope ratios north of the Central Kermadec Discontinuity at 32°S than to the south. The contrast may reflect inheritance in the south of mantle that was depleted during spreading that formed the southern South Fiji Basin and a higher degree of melting because of a wetter slab-derived flux. The slab component also differs along strike, more like a dry melt in the north and a supercritical fluid in the south. The mass fraction of slab component increases southward in the backarc as well as the arc front. RA volcanoes have the most slab component (1%–2%) and form indistinct ridges at high angles to, and &lt;50&nbsp;km behind, frontal volcanoes. Backarc basalts have less and occur throughout the basin. Slab components are distributed further into the backarc, and more irregularly, during the rifting than spreading stage of backarc basin development. The rifting stage is disorganized geochemically as well as spatially.</p></div>","language":"English","publisher":"American Geophysical Union","doi":"10.1029/2020GC009339","usgsCitation":"Gill, J.B., Hoernle, K., Todd, E., Hauff, F., Werner, R., Timm, C., Garbe-Schönberg, D., and Gutjahr, M., 2021, Basalt geochemistry and mantle flow during early backarc basin evolution: Havre Trough and Kermadec Arc, southwest Pacific: Geochemistry Geophysics Geosystems, v. 22, no. 2, e2020GC009339, 27 p., https://doi.org/10.1029/2020GC009339.","productDescription":"e2020GC009339, 27 p.","ipdsId":"IP-122065","costCenters":[{"id":119,"text":"Alaska Science Center Geology Minerals","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":454198,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1029/2020gc009339","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":391673,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"22","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2021-02-24","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Gill, James B 0000-0003-2584-9687","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2584-9687","contributorId":248602,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Gill","given":"James","email":"","middleInitial":"B","affiliations":[{"id":6949,"text":"University of California, Santa Cruz","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":826675,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Hoernle, Kaj 0000-0002-3165-3480","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3165-3480","contributorId":268792,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hoernle","given":"Kaj","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":55666,"text":"GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research AND Institute of Geosciences, Kiel University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":826676,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Todd, Erin 0000-0002-4871-9730 etodd@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4871-9730","contributorId":202811,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Todd","given":"Erin","email":"etodd@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":119,"text":"Alaska Science Center Geology Minerals","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":826677,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Hauff, Folkmar 0000-0001-9503-9714","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9503-9714","contributorId":268793,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hauff","given":"Folkmar","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":13697,"text":"GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":826678,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Werner, Reinhard","contributorId":268794,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Werner","given":"Reinhard","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":13697,"text":"GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":826679,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Timm, Christian","contributorId":243349,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Timm","given":"Christian","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":48696,"text":"GEOMAR","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":826680,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Garbe-Schönberg, Dieter","contributorId":268795,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Garbe-Schönberg","given":"Dieter","affiliations":[{"id":55669,"text":"Institute of Geosciences, Kiel University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":826681,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Gutjahr, Marcus","contributorId":268796,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Gutjahr","given":"Marcus","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":13697,"text":"GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":826682,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8}]}}

Creation of grassland and early-successional habitats resulting from mining in a forested landscape has resulted in novel, non-analog habitat conditions. Depending on the taxa, the extent of mining on the landscape, and reclamation practices, effects have ranged across a gradient of negative to positive. Forest-obligate species such as woodland salamanders and forest-interior birds or those that depend on aquatic systems in their life cycle have been most impacted. Others, such as grassland and early-successional bird species have responded favorably. Some bat species, as an unintended consequence, use legacy deep mines as winter hibernacula in a region with limited karst geology. Recolonization of impacted wildlife often depends on life strategies and species’ vagility, but also on altered or arrested successional processes on the post-surface mine landscape.

To address this issue, we propose a genetic algorithm that minimizes any sensible, criteria‐based objective function to produce near‐optimal sampling designs. To motivate the idea of optimality, we compare the performance of designs optimized using three model‐based criteria related to the probability of capture. We use simulation to show that these designs out‐perform those based on existing recommendations in terms of bias, precision, and accuracy in the estimation of population size.

To better understand these challenges, we explored two key questions: (1) What additional data are needed to implement e-flows? and (2) What are the major socio-political barriers to implementing e-flows? We surveyed water and natural resource decision makers in the semi-arid Red River basin, Texas-Oklahoma, USA, and used social network analysis to analyze their communication patterns. Most respondents agreed that e-flows can provide important benefits and identified the same data needs. However, respondents sharply in their beliefs on other issues, and a clustering analysis revealed two distinct groups of decision makers. One cluster of decision makers tended to be bearish, or pessimistic, and believed that: current flow conditions are not adequate, there are many serious socio-political barriers to implementation, water conflicts will likely increase in the future, and climate change is likely to exacerbate these issues. The other cluster of respondents was bullish, or optimistic: they foresaw fewer future water conflicts and fewer socio-political barriers to implementation. Despite these differences, both clusters largely identified the same data needs and barriers to e-flows implementation. Our social network analysis revealed that the frequency of communication between clusters was not significantly different than the frequency of communication within clusters. Overall, our results suggest that the different perspectives of decision-makers could complicate efforts to implement e-flows and proactively plan for climate change. However, there are opportunities for collaboration on addressing common data needs and barriers to implementation. Overall, our study provides a key socio-environmental perspective on e-flows implementation from a semi-arid and socio-politically complex river basin and contextualizes the many challenges facing e-flows implementation in river basins globally.</p></div></div></div><ul id=\"issue-navigation\" class=\"issue-navigation u-margin-s-bottom u-bg-grey1\"></ul>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.jenvman.2020.111694","usgsCitation":"Wineland, S.M., Fovargue, R., York, B., Lynch, A., Paukert, C.P., and Neeson, T.M., 2021, Is there enough water?

Monitoring of mussel populations with environmental DNA (eDNA) is an attractive alternative to traditional methods because it is noninvasive and requires less labor and taxonomic knowledge from field personnel. We developed eDNA metabarcoding assays specific to freshwater mussels and tested them at six sites in the Clinch River, located in the southeastern United States. Our objective was to determine the utility of eDNA metabarcoding for future monitoring of mussel populations and restoration efforts in this watershed. Two metabarcoding assays that target the mitochondrial DNA regions of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) and NADH dehydrogenase subunit (ND1) genes were developed and tested. Our assays appear to be order specific, amplifying members from the two families found in North America, Unionidae and Margaritiferidae, while not amplifying nontarget fish or other bivalve species. From the field collected samples, our assays together detected 19 species, eight of which are listed as federally endangered. The assays also detected 42%, 58%, and 54% of the species identified by recent quantitative visual mussel surveys at three sampling sites. Increased sampling effort by processing a greater water volume or number of samples will likely increase species detections. These eDNA metabarcoding assays may enable enhanced monitoring of freshwater mussel assemblages and subsequently inform conservation efforts.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/edn3.166","usgsCitation":"Klymus, K.E., Richter, C.A., Thompson, N., Hinck, J.E., and Jones, J.W., 2021, Metabarcoding assays for the detection of freshwater mussels (Unionida) with environmental DNA: Environmental DNA, v. 3, no. 1, p. 231-247, https://doi.org/10.1002/edn3.166.","productDescription":"17 p.","startPage":"231","endPage":"247","ipdsId":"IP-118949","costCenters":[{"id":192,"text":"Columbia Environmental Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":454206,"rank":1,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/edn3.166","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":436631,"rank":0,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/P9GO0A2R","text":"USGS data release","linkHelpText":"Metabarcoding data from freshwater mussel eDNA collected in Clinch River, Virginia 2017"},{"id":381496,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Virginia","otherGeospatial":"Clinch River","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -82.77099609375,\n              36.56260003738545\n            ],\n            [\n              -81.4306640625,\n              36.56260003738545\n            ],\n            [\n              -81.4306640625,\n              37.45741810262938\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.77099609375,\n              37.45741810262938\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.77099609375,\n              36.56260003738545\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"3","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2020-11-26","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Klymus, Katy E. 0000-0002-8843-6241 kklymus@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8843-6241","contributorId":5043,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Klymus","given":"Katy","email":"kklymus@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":192,"text":"Columbia Environmental Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":807089,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Richter, Catherine A. 0000-0001-7322-4206 crichter@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7322-4206","contributorId":138994,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Richter","given":"Catherine","email":"crichter@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":192,"text":"Columbia Environmental Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":807090,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Thompson, Nathan 0000-0002-1372-6340 nthompson@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1372-6340","contributorId":196133,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Thompson","given":"Nathan","email":"nthompson@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":192,"text":"Columbia Environmental Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":807091,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Hinck, Jo Ellen 0000-0002-4912-5766 jhinck@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4912-5766","contributorId":2743,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hinck","given":"Jo","email":"jhinck@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"Ellen","affiliations":[{"id":192,"text":"Columbia Environmental Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":807092,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Jones, Jess W.","contributorId":245826,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Jones","given":"Jess","email":"","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":49337,"text":"U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Department of Fish and Wildlife Conservation, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Blacksburg, VA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":807093,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

Occupancy studies come at a cost, however: the collection of additional data to account for nondetections at sites where the species is present. The most common occupancy designs (repeated measures designs) require repeat visits to sites or the use of multiple observers or detection methods. Time‐to‐detection methods have been identified as a potentially efficient alternative, requiring only one visit to each site by a single observer. A comparison of time‐to‐detection methods to repeated measures designs for visual encounter surveys would allow researchers to evaluate whether time‐to‐detection methods might be appropriate for their study system and can inform optimal survey design. We collected time‐to‐detection data during two different repeated measures design occupancy surveys for four amphibians and compared the performance of time‐to‐detection methods to the other designs using the location (potential bias) and precision of posterior distributions for occurrence parameters. We further used results of time‐to‐detection surveys to optimize survey design. Time‐to‐detection methods performed best for species that are widespread and have high detection probabilities and rates, but performed less well for cryptic species with lower probability of occurrence or whose detection was strongly affected by survey conditions. In all cases single surveys were most efficient in terms of person‐hours expended, but under some conditions the survey duration required to achieve high detection probabilities would be prohibitively long for a single survey. Regardless of occupancy survey design, time‐to‐detection methods provide important information that can be used to optimize surveys, allowing researchers and resource managers to efficiently achieve monitoring and conservation goals. Collecting time‐to‐detection data while conducting repeated measures occupancy surveys requires only small modifications to field methods but could have large benefits in terms of time spent surveying in the long‐term.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Ecological Society of America","doi":"10.1002/eap.2267","usgsCitation":"Halstead, B., Rose, J.P., and Kleeman, P.M., 2021, Time-to-detection occupancy methods: Performance and utility for improving efficiency of surveys: Ecological Applications, v. 31, no. 3, e2267, 13 p., https://doi.org/10.1002/eap.2267.","productDescription":"e2267, 13 p.","ipdsId":"IP-116145","costCenters":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":454208,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/eap.2267","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":382258,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","otherGeospatial":"Yosemite National Park","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -120.25634765624999,\n              37.05956083025126\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.7347412109375,\n              37.05956083025126\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.7347412109375,\n              38.30718056188316\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.25634765624999,\n              38.30718056188316\n            ],\n            [\n              -120.25634765624999,\n              37.05956083025126\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"31","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2021-01-27","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Halstead, Brian J. 0000-0002-5535-6528 bhalstead@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5535-6528","contributorId":3051,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Halstead","given":"Brian J.","email":"bhalstead@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":808296,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Rose, Jonathan P. 0000-0003-0874-9166 jprose@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0874-9166","contributorId":199339,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rose","given":"Jonathan","email":"jprose@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":808297,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Kleeman, Patrick M. 0000-0001-6567-3239 pkleeman@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6567-3239","contributorId":3948,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kleeman","given":"Patrick","email":"pkleeman@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":808298,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}
