While we hypothesised a reciprocal intraguild predation dynamic, where competition and predation occur between predators based on size or age structure, our findings provided limited support for this hypothesis. Both dietary overlap and trophic position were minimal among burbot, brown trout and lake trout. Instances of reciprocal predation were rare; no predation between burbot and lake trout was observed; and brown trout was the only species consumed by all predators (burbot 0.02 mean proportion by weight; lake trout 0.09 mean proportion by weight). Predation by brown trout on burbot was negligible, contributing only 0.01 to the mean proportion by weight and frequency of occurrence. Additionally, both burbot and brown trout were less piscivorous than expected, with fish comprising 0.36 and 0.17 of their mean proportion by weight in their overall diets, respectively. Overall, our findings suggest that these predators coexist with limited competitive or predatory interactions, likely due to differences in prey selection.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/eff.70011","usgsCitation":"Eckelbecker, R.W., Guy, C.S., Gerrity, P.C., Deromedi, J.W., Neebling, T.E., Smith, M.A., 2025, Niche partitioning among three apex piscivorous fishes: Evidence of limited intraguild predation: Ecology of Freshwater Fish, v. 34, no. 3, e70011, 13 p., https://doi.org/10.1111/eff.70011.","productDescription":"e70011, 13 p.","ipdsId":"IP-174794","costCenters":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":500577,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1111/eff.70011","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":500348,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Wyoming","otherGeospatial":"Torrey Creek drainage","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -109.59097274253836,\n              43.48793506318529\n            ],\n            [\n              -109.59097274253836,\n              43.41362905156234\n            ],\n            [\n              -109.50333351033318,\n              43.41362905156234\n            ],\n            [\n              -109.50333351033318,\n              43.48793506318529\n            ],\n            [\n              -109.59097274253836,\n              43.48793506318529\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"34","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2025-06-21","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Eckelbecker, Robert W.","contributorId":366497,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Eckelbecker","given":"Robert","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":36555,"text":"Montana State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":955996,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Guy, Christopher S. 0000-0002-9936-4781 cguy@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9936-4781","contributorId":2876,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Guy","given":"Christopher","email":"cguy@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":5062,"text":"Office of the Chief Scientist for Ecosystems","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":438,"text":"National Research Program - Western Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":955997,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Gerrity, Paul C.","contributorId":366498,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Gerrity","given":"Paul","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":36596,"text":"Wyoming Game and Fish Department","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":955998,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Deromedi, Joe W.","contributorId":366499,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Deromedi","given":"Joe","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":36596,"text":"Wyoming Game and Fish Department","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":955999,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Neebling, Travis E.","contributorId":366500,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Neebling","given":"Travis","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":36596,"text":"Wyoming Game and Fish Department","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":956000,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Smith, Mark A.","contributorId":366501,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Smith","given":"Mark","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":36596,"text":"Wyoming Game and Fish Department","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":956001,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

Field and laboratory techniques are time consuming and limited by the maximum grain size that laboratories can accommodate. In this study, we present a new method to identify the coarse fraction of the grain size distribution at a debris-flow fan deposit surveyed with terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) in Glenwood Canyon, Colorado, USA. This method is a novel grain segmentation algorithm developed for application to point cloud data of deposits with complex surfaces and angular grains ranging in size from centimeters to a meter. This approach combines an existing random forest machine learning method with a novel iterative clustering algorithm. We compared the grain size distribution from our algorithm with a Wolman pebble count conducted in the field, and found a root mean squared error of less than 2&nbsp;cm from the 5th to 95th percentile of the grain size distribution of grains ranging from cobble to boulder sized (6.3–78&nbsp;cm in our application). Finally, we compared our new algorithm with an existing open-source grain segregation algorithm, and our method outperformed the selected alternative when applied to the debris-flow deposit point cloud.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"American Geophysical Union","doi":"10.1029/2025EA004376","usgsCitation":"Jacobson, H., Walton, G., Barnhart, K.R., and Rengers, F.K., 2025, A method to obtain remotely sensed grain size distributions from nonplanar granular deposits: Earth and Space Science, v. 12, e2025EA004376, 18 p., https://doi.org/10.1029/2025EA004376.","productDescription":"e2025EA004376, 18 p.","ipdsId":"IP-159354","costCenters":[{"id":78941,"text":"Geologic Hazards Science Center - Landslides / Earthquake Geology","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":491499,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1029/2025ea004376","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":491193,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Colorado","otherGeospatial":"Colorado River, Grizzly Creek Fire area","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -107.03314321384126,\n              39.68363920671021\n            ],\n            [\n              -107.34507070999592,\n              39.68363920671021\n            ],\n            [\n              -107.34507070999592,\n              39.525758441449966\n            ],\n            [\n              -107.03314321384126,\n              39.525758441449966\n            ],\n            [\n              -107.03314321384126,\n              39.68363920671021\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"12","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2025-06-21","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Jacobson, Hayden L. 0000-0003-4777-6626","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4777-6626","contributorId":357323,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Jacobson","given":"Hayden L.","affiliations":[{"id":6606,"text":"Colorado School of Mines","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":941193,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Walton, Gabriel 0000-0002-9214-0021","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9214-0021","contributorId":357324,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Walton","given":"Gabriel","affiliations":[{"id":6606,"text":"Colorado School of Mines","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":941194,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Barnhart, Katherine R. 0000-0001-5682-455X","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5682-455X","contributorId":257870,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Barnhart","given":"Katherine","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":300,"text":"Geologic Hazards Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":941195,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Rengers, Francis K. 0000-0002-1825-0943 frengers@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1825-0943","contributorId":150422,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rengers","given":"Francis","email":"frengers@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[{"id":300,"text":"Geologic Hazards Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":941196,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

To help address these knowledge gaps, we compiled capture records, citizen science reports, and other available data from across North America.

These systems provide ecosystem services such as storm surge and wave attenuation, erosion protection to inland areas, habitat for fish and wildlife, recreation, and tourism. Given the importance of these ecosystems coupled with their dynamic nature, information on how these coastal systems are changing can help to inform natural resource management. Remote sensing advancements have led to an abundance of data for monitoring change in coastal settings. This study developed a multiscale framework that can provide trajectory information from screening-level analyses by using existing or custom moderate spatial resolution land cover maps. Using the north-central Gulf Coast as a case study, the trajectory of land cover area for barrier islands and mainland coastal zones was assessed using several geospatial data sets, including: (1) long-term moderate-resolution remote sensing products with an annual (or more frequent) temporal frequency; (2) a restoration database (</span><i>e.g.</i><span>, beach/dune restoration, sediment placement, and dune enhancement); and (3) a tropical storm database. Due to the coarser spatial resolution of data sets used for screening-level analyses, detailed or application-specific analyses are often needed to reduce uncertainty in smaller changes that may not be captured. These may include land cover change analyses (</span><i>i.e.</i><span>&nbsp;this study), periodic land cover maps with higher spatial resolution and more detailed land cover classes, or elevation-related analyses (</span><i>e.g.</i><span>, dune change or inundation change). Using this framework, abrupt changes in land cover on Dauphin Island, Alabama, resulting from extreme storms were detected using moderate spatial resolution screening-level data, while restoration impact analyses may require higher resolution data. Further, land cover change analyses that incorporate change allocation provide robust information for understanding land cover change in dynamic coastal settings.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Coastal Education and Research Foundation, Inc.","doi":"10.2112/JCOASTRES-D-24-00084.1","usgsCitation":"Enwright, N., Dalyander, P.S., Stuht, C.M., Han, M., Palmsten, M.L., Davenport, T.M., Kingwill, C.J., Steyer, G., and La Peyre, M., 2025, Multiscale framework for assessing land cover change on barrier islands from extreme storms and restoration: Journal of Coastal Research, v. 41, no. 6, p. 1029-1042, https://doi.org/10.2112/JCOASTRES-D-24-00084.1.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"1029","endPage":"1042","ipdsId":"IP-172879","costCenters":[{"id":17705,"text":"Wetland and Aquatic Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":497643,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Alabama, Florida","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -88.40937976247565,\n              30.743725811842268\n            ],\n            [\n              -88.40937976247565,\n              29.56478712694208\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.91845836432758,\n              29.56478712694208\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.91845836432758,\n              30.743725811842268\n            ],\n            [\n              -88.40937976247565,\n              30.743725811842268\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"41","issue":"6","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Enwright, Nicholas 0000-0002-7887-3261","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7887-3261","contributorId":214839,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Enwright","given":"Nicholas","affiliations":[{"id":17705,"text":"Wetland and Aquatic Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":952525,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Dalyander, P.

Thus, our understanding of long-term barrier island morphological change focuses on beach erosion, overwash, and inlet formation. In contrast, outwash events with inundation from the sound side, such as one that occurred in Cape Lookout National Seashore, North Carolina, USA during Hurricane Dorian (September 2019), are understudied. Studying such events can improve understanding of barrier island response and stability for a broader range of conditions. Here, we model the hydrodynamics and morphological evolution of a barrier island using a coupled wave-current-sediment transport modeling system. Wind-driven surge in Pamlico Sound led to overtopping from the sound side, which eroded outwash channels and transported sediment seaward into the nearshore. Simulations reproduce the channel features observed with aerial imagery and provide information not available from the remote-sensing observations, including channel depths (&gt;2&nbsp;m) and the fate of the eroded sand. We found that &gt;99% of the eroded sand was deposited in the nearshore, within 1,000&nbsp;m of the shoreline in depths &lt;10&nbsp;m, suggesting that the deposited sediment remains available for littoral transport and beach recovery. Simulations with combinations of coarse or fine sediment and vegetated or unvegetated landcover indicate that channel position did not vary with grain size or vegetation, while volume of erosion and channel morphology were more responsive to variations in grain size and less responsive to presence of vegetation.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"American Geophysical

While geophysical methods have a long history in resource exploration and studies of Earth’s interior, the subdiscipline of “near-surface geophysics” has evolved in recent decades for examination of the shallow, near-surface environment for a range of purposes ranging from archaeological or forensic investigations to assessment of geologic, hydrologic, biologic, and geochemical properties and processes. “Environmental geophysics” are near-surface geophysical studies and methods that focus on understanding natural systems (e.g., watershed hydrology, groundwater–surface water connections, biophysical processes) as well as research pertaining to anthropogenic impacts and land management, (e.g., contamination and remediation, saltwater intrusion, agricultural practices). This field can be further subdivided into subdisciplines focused on specific topics and applications, such as water resources and hydrology (hydrogeophysics) or biologic and microbial processes (biogeophysics). Studies in environmental geophysics span a range of scales, from pore-scale laboratory tests to watershed-scale or regional field experiments. Methods vary by the nature of physics employed, the specific measurement acquired, and how that data is ultimately processed and analyzed to produce interpretable results. There exists further diversity in the acquisition logistics, geometry, and timing of data collection. Geophysical data can be collected in boreholes (one-dimensional, 1-D, vertical profiles), along survey lines (two-dimensional, 2-D, cross-sections), or in dense sensor arrays or gridded profiles (three-dimensional, 3-D, models). Regarding the temporal aspect, studies can conduct one-time geophysical surveys to obtain detailed imaging of subsurface structure or use timelapse and continuous monitoring to investigate variations in subsurface properties over time. The cumulation of all possible permutations of these factors (method, acquisition geometry, survey design, and target application) results in an immense diversity among environmental geophysical studies. Nevertheless, this field remains unified in the pursuit of understanding natural and human-impacted near-surface environments through geophysical investigations. Here we highlight some key references within environmental geophysics. Resources on geophysical theory, acquisition logistics, processing and inversion workflows, and example case studies are categorized into the most common geophysical classes within Geophysical Methods. Lastly, example references for the dominant types of applications in environmental geophysical studies are catalogued in Environmental Applications.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Oxford Bibliographies","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":11,"text":"Bibliography"},"language":"English","publisher":"Oxford University Press","doi":"10.1093/obo/9780199363445-0146","usgsCitation":"James, S.R., Glaser, D.R., and Garcia, A., 2025, Near-surface geophysics: Environmental applications, chap. <i>of</i> Oxford Bibliographies, HTML Document, https://doi.org/10.1093/obo/9780199363445-0146.","productDescription":"HTML Document","ipdsId":"IP-172909","costCenters":[{"id":35995,"text":"Geology, Geophysics, and Geochemistry Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":501916,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2025-06-20","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"James, Stephanie R. 0000-0001-5715-253X","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5715-253X","contributorId":260620,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"James","given":"Stephanie","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":35995,"text":"Geology, Geophysics, and Geochemistry Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":958466,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Glaser, Dan R.","contributorId":292710,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Glaser","given":"Dan","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":958467,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Garcia, Alejandro","contributorId":369112,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Garcia","given":"Alejandro","affiliations":[{"id":12727,"text":"Rutgers University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":958468,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

However, some management practices can have unforeseen consequences that negate the intended benefit. For example, nest exclosures are often used for ground-nesting avian species to reduce nest predation but may increase depredation of adults. Tradeoffs between nest survival and adult mortality of nest exclosures likely depend on local predator community dynamics. Therefore, investigations are most informative when assessed in specific settings. Piping Plovers (</span><i>Charadrius melodus</i><span>, hereafter plovers) in the lower Platte River system, Nebraska, nest at off-river sandpit sites, which provide an additional study system and habitat to assess the context-dependent effects of nest exclosures. The Tern and Plover Conservation Partnership monitors plovers at off-river sites by monitoring nests, installing nest exclosures, and banding and resighting. Effects of nest exclosures were tested on both nest survival, from 340 plover nests from 2008–2024, and weekly within-season apparent survival, from 71 breeding adults from 2011–2024. There was weak evidence that nest exclosures marginally improved nest survival but no evidence of an effect for within-season survival of breeding adults. Daily nest survival was slightly higher for exclosed nests (0.99, [85% CI = 0.98–0.99]) than unexclosed nests (0.98, [0.98–0.99]). Within-season apparent weekly survival for breeding plovers was 0.90 (95% CI = 0.83–0.93); cumulative survival over the breeding period was 0.51 (0.33–0.69). Nest exclosures may be used to increase nest survival at off-river sites with minimal threat to adult survival unless considerable concerns arise.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"BioOne","doi":"10.1675/063.048.0104","usgsCitation":"Forsberg, E., Jorgensen, J., Swift, R.J., Powell, L., and Vrtiska, M., 2025, Effects of nest exclosure on nest and adult survival of piping plover (Charadrius melodus) in the lower Platte River System, Nebraska: Waterbirds, v. 48, no. 1, p. 1-11, https://doi.org/10.1675/063.048.0104.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"1","endPage":"11","ipdsId":"IP-172280","costCenters":[{"id":480,"text":"Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":491843,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Nebraska","otherGeospatial":"lower Platte River","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -97.33459195909862,\n              41.998911775825974\n            ],\n            [\n              -97.33459195909862,\n              40.042135850408954\n            ],\n            [\n              -95.48004775335434,\n              40.042135850408954\n            ],\n            [\n              -95.48004775335434,\n              41.998911775825974\n            ],\n            [\n              -97.33459195909862,\n              41.998911775825974\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"48","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Forsberg, Elsa M.","contributorId":357514,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Forsberg","given":"Elsa M.","affiliations":[{"id":16602,"text":"University of Nebraska, Lincoln","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":941630,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Jorgensen, Joel G.","contributorId":169604,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Jorgensen","given":"Joel G.","affiliations":[{"id":25564,"text":"Nongame Bird Program, Nebraska Game and Parks Commission, Lincoln, NE 68503","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":941631,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Swift, Rose J. 0000-0001-7044-6196","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7044-6196","contributorId":212082,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Swift","given":"Rose","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":480,"text":"Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":941632,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Powell, Larkin A.","contributorId":352292,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Powell","given":"Larkin A.","affiliations":[{"id":84162,"text":"School of Natural Resources, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Lincoln, Nebraska USA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":941633,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Vrtiska, Mark P.","contributorId":342638,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Vrtiska","given":"Mark P.","affiliations":[{"id":81901,"text":"Nebraska-Lincoln, Lincoln","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":941634,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

This review assesses these varied responses within five critical categories: climate, vegetation, hydrogeology, fire characteristics, and the cryosphere, examining both short-term (within 2 years) and intermediate (2–10 years post-fire) effects. Despite considerable variability, some consistent patterns emerge. For instance, in hydroclimatic settings where water input and evaporative demand cycles are out of sync, post-wildfire groundwater responses tend to be positive (i.e., increased flux or storage), whereas under low fire severity conditions or in vegetation types that quickly recover, groundwater responses tend to be negative (i.e., decreased flux or storage). We synthesize relevant findings into a compendium of testable hypotheses aimed at explaining the spatiotemporal variability in observed post-wildfire groundwater responses. A recurring theme is the critical influence of the pre-wildfire groundwater regime on expected response and recovery. We identify opportunities for specific improvements in post-wildfire monitoring and modeling that would further advance capabilities to predict groundwater response. A key area for further research is understanding how wildfire effects on snow dynamics and other cryospheric processes translate to changes in groundwater.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews","doi":"10.1002/wat2.70029","usgsCitation":"Walvoord, M.A., Ebel, B., Partridge, T.F., Rey, D., and Rosenberry, D., 2025, Disparate groundwater responses to wildfire: WIREs Water, v. 12, no. 3, e70029, 22 p., https://doi.org/10.1002/wat2.70029.","productDescription":"e70029, 22 p.","ipdsId":"IP-178452","costCenters":[{"id":37277,"text":"WMA - Earth System Processes Division","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":491494,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/wat2.70029","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":491099,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"12","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2025-06-19","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Walvoord, Michelle A. 0000-0003-4269-8366","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4269-8366","contributorId":211843,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Walvoord","given":"Michelle","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":37277,"text":"WMA - Earth System Processes Division","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":940839,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Ebel, Brian A. 0000-0002-5413-3963","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5413-3963","contributorId":211845,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ebel","given":"Brian A.","affiliations":[{"id":37277,"text":"WMA - Earth System Processes Division","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":940840,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Partridge, Trevor Fuess 0000-0003-1589-4783","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1589-4783","contributorId":302668,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Partridge","given":"Trevor","email":"","middleInitial":"Fuess","affiliations":[{"id":37277,"text":"WMA - Earth System Processes Division","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":940841,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Rey, David M. 0000-0003-2629-365X","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2629-365X","contributorId":211848,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rey","given":"David M.","affiliations":[{"id":37277,"text":"WMA - Earth System Processes Division","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":940842,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Rosenberry, D.O. 0000-0003-0681-5641","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0681-5641","contributorId":38500,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rosenberry","given":"D.O.","affiliations":[],"preferred":true,"id":940843,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

Deliveries for public water supply are crucial for associating water use amounts with populations because they often differ from total withdrawals due to wholesales, transfers, losses, and other factors. Understanding these differences helps identify the drivers for each type of delivery. The goal of this study was to compile all available public water supply delivery data for the CONUS and develop a data-driven model to estimate deliveries for all water service areas within the CONUS. Annual deliveries were estimated between 2010 and 2020, encompassing total water deliveries; combined commercial, industrial, and institutional deliveries (CII); and domestic deliveries. Data were compiled for 2,744 water service areas to produce the most comprehensive public water supply delivery data set for the CONUS to date. Three ensemble modeling approaches were developed to estimate total, CII, and domestic per capita (DPC) deliveries using a gradient boosted regression tree modeling approach. Estimates of daily domestic and CII per capita deliveries were generated from these models for approximately 18,800 water service areas, covering most public water systems in the CONUS. Domestic delivery was found to be lowest in the midwestern region and higher in the southern and southwest regions of the United States. Results indicate that climate and land use can be associated with regional differences in DPC delivery. Population metrics and land use were identified as significant contributors to CII delivery estimates.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"American Geophysical

This lava flow issued from a&nbsp;∼10-km-long continuous fissure now known as the Great Crack, and has an unusually thin sheet flow morphology with margin thicknesses of ∼15–110&nbsp;cm (average of 42&nbsp;cm). Based on field observations of the lava flow at its fissure vent (e.g., drain-back features), we propose that the Great Crack formed, or at least significantly widened, just prior to and syn-eruptively with this 1823 eruption. The absence of pyroclastic cones or spatter ramparts indicates that the eruption consisted of a rapid outpouring of relatively degassed lava as the fissure unzipped. The rapidly moving lava flow overtopped pre-existing tumuli and scoria cones (e.g., Lava Plastered Cones) up to ∼10&nbsp;m tall. Glass and whole-rock chemistry yield homogeneous compositions for the lavas erupted from the Great Crack, with glass compositions of 6.40&nbsp;±&nbsp;0.10&nbsp;wt% MgO and whole-rock compositions of 7.39&nbsp;±&nbsp;0.07&nbsp;wt% MgO. Lava pads erupted from a short western fissure system are richer in mafic minerals (e.g., olivine and clinopyroxene), and show slightly more MgO-rich whole-rock compositions (7.79&nbsp;±&nbsp;0.05&nbsp;wt%). MgO-in-glass thermometry on juvenile spatter yield eruption temperatures of 1153&nbsp;±&nbsp;13°C that are typical of Kīlauea lavas. Thus, the extensive sheet-like lava flow morphology is not a direct consequence of unusual magmatic or rheological conditions (i.e., low viscosity). Instead, the flow morphology is associated with high effusion rates caused by sudden drainage of uprift magma as it erupted from the Great Crack. Lava flow modeling on a 2-m-resolution digital elevation model indicates that a minimum bulk effusion rate of ∼5800&nbsp;m</span><sup>3</sup><span>/s (∼3500&nbsp;m</span><sup>3</sup><span>/s dense rock equivalent) and a minimum flow velocity of ∼11&nbsp;m/s are required for the lava flow to overcome the topography of the Lava Plastered Cones. This effusion rate is among the highest inferred for eruptions in Hawaiʻi and around the world. This study highlights a less frequent eruption style at Hawaiian volcanoes characterized by a sudden outpouring of lava from an unusual fissure system. Local eyewitness accounts indicate that the 1823 eruption was preceded by seismicity. Given the complex magmatic-volcanic-tectonic relations across Kīlauea, we speculate that the south flank could have slipped over one or more events that ultimately triggered unzipping of the Great Crack and passive release of briefly stored uprift magma. An eruption similar to 1823 at Kīlauea or Mauna Loa, with an eruptive timeframe that could be as short as an hour, with high effusion rates and rapid flow front velocities, would not easily allow for a timely response.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2025.108391","usgsCitation":"Tonato, A., Shea, T., Downs, D.T., and Kelfoun, K., 2025, Rapid emplacement of the Keaiwa Lava Flow of 1823 from the Great Crack in the Southwest Rift Zone of Kilauea volcano: Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, v. 466, 108391, 18 p., https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2025.108391.","productDescription":"108391, 18 p.","ipdsId":"IP-169862","costCenters":[{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":494405,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2025.108391","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":491181,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Hawaii","otherGeospatial":"Great Crack in the Southwest Rift Zone of Kīlauea volcano, Keaīwa Lava Flow","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -155.2184297752859,\n              19.437317498221987\n            ],\n            [\n              -155.5,\n              19.437317498221987\n            ],\n            [\n              -155.5,\n              19.1667\n            ],\n            [\n              -155.2184297752859,\n              19.1667\n            ],\n            [\n              -155.2184297752859,\n              19.437317498221987\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"466","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2025-06-19","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Tonato, Andrea","contributorId":352882,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Tonato","given":"Andrea","affiliations":[{"id":64253,"text":"University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":941184,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Shea, Thomas","contributorId":236886,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Shea","given":"Thomas","affiliations":[{"id":47560,"text":"University of Hawaii Manoa","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":941185,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Downs, Drew T. 0000-0002-9056-1404 ddowns@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9056-1404","contributorId":173516,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Downs","given":"Drew","email":"ddowns@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":941186,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Kelfoun, Karim","contributorId":333750,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kelfoun","given":"Karim","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":79967,"text":"Laboratoire Magmas et Volcans, Université Clermont Auvergne, Clermont-Ferrand, France","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":941187,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

ACK55 was not detected in soil a year after application, and it caused only transient and marginally significant reductions in annual grass cover accompanied by small reductions in soil fungi species richness.

Although small in size, the vast area that biocrusts cover and the critical functions they provide make them a cornerstone of dryland health and resiliency. In addition to being important, biocrusts are exceptionally vulnerable to certain types of disturbance. Although they can withstand a wide range of temperatures and long periods without precipitation, biocrusts are highly sensitive to land-use change and are vulnerable to physical and compressional disturbance (i.e., trampling, vehicles, cattle, heavy machinery). In the face of these disturbances, a critical, long-standing question of interest to dryland ecologists is: Can biocrusts recover following disturbance without active intervention. If so, how long does it take? Early estimates of biocrust recovery suggested recovery can be incredibly slow (on the order of thousands of years), with more modern studies finding potential for faster recovery, especially with intervention. Multiple lines of evidence agree that recovery is context dependent, differing across climates, soils, and with the types of disturbance and biocrust. Additionally, active restoration of biocrusts is becoming more common as tractable strategies are developed for facilitating the establishment of biocrusts after disturbance. Here, we add to the body of knowledge about biocrust recovery following disturbances by reviewing recovery patterns, their connection to climate change, considerations for recovery in changing climates, and the role of restoration.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Botanical Society of AMerica","doi":"10.1002/ajb2.70055","usgsCitation":"Phillips, M.L., Young, K.E., Lauria, C.M., Jech, S., Giraldo-Silva, A., and Reed, S., 2025, Navigating the possibilities and pitfalls of biocrust recovery in a changing climate: American Journal of Botany, v. 112, e70055, 8 p., https://doi.org/10.1002/ajb2.70055.","productDescription":"e70055, 8 p.","ipdsId":"IP-176307","costCenters":[{"id":521,"text":"Pacific Island Ecosystems Research Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":492481,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/ajb2.70055","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":492193,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"112","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2025-06-19","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Phillips, Michala Lee 0000-0001-7005-8740","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7005-8740","contributorId":245186,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Phillips","given":"Michala","email":"","middleInitial":"Lee","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":942951,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Young, Kristina E.","contributorId":210572,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Young","given":"Kristina","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":38116,"text":"Department of Biological Sciences, University of Texas at El Paso, El Paso, TX 79902, USA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":942952,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Lauria, Cara Marie 0000-0001-8914-8041","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8914-8041","contributorId":271066,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lauria","given":"Cara","email":"","middleInitial":"Marie","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":942953,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Jech, Sierra","contributorId":292726,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Jech","given":"Sierra","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":36627,"text":"University of Colorado, Boulder","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":942954,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Giraldo-Silva, Ana","contributorId":357982,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Giraldo-Silva","given":"Ana","affiliations":[{"id":85571,"text":"Public University of Navarre","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":942955,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Reed, Sasha C. 0000-0002-8597-8619","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8597-8619","contributorId":207498,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Reed","given":"Sasha C.","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":942956,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

However, considerable uncertainty exists regarding the mechanisms underlying differential migration distance in birds despite it being a common phenomenon. We leveraged migration distances from GPS-tracked rough-legged hawks&nbsp;</span><i>Buteo lagopus</i><span>&nbsp;to test predictions deduced from seven hypotheses proposed to explain the underlying cause(s) of differential migration distance. We provide the first empirical evidence in support of a social dominance food maximization hypothesis whereby dominant individuals migrate to higher quality nonbreeding locations with respect to foraging efficiency regardless of migration distance. Within females, larger more dominant individuals migrated intermediate distances while smaller, subordinate individuals migrated both longer and shorter distances. We also found support for the social dominance distance minimization hypothesis because more aggressive females migrated shorter distances, although increased aggression at shorter distances may be a consequence of poor body condition. Within males, we found some support for the fasting endurance and thermal tolerance hypotheses because body size was negatively correlated with migration distance. Body size was also negatively correlated with food availability and winter minimum temperatures within both sexes, providing additional mechanistic support for the fasting endurance and thermal tolerance hypotheses. Overall, our results suggest differential migration distance within rough-legged hawks is caused by a combination of competition for nonbreeding resources and constraints on fasting endurance or thermal tolerance, but is unrelated to competition for breeding opportunities, dietary preferences, or flight efficiency.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Oxford Academic","doi":"10.1093/beheco/araf072","usgsCitation":"Paprocki, N., Kidd, J., Warne, R., Macedo, A., and Conway, C.J., 2025, Causes of differential migration distance: Test of seven mechanistic hypotheses in an arctic raptor: Behavioral Ecology, v. 36, no. 4, araf072, https://doi.org/10.1093/beheco/araf072.","productDescription":"araf072","ipdsId":"IP-173781","costCenters":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":492136,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"36","issue":"4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Paprocki, Neil","contributorId":354983,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Paprocki","given":"Neil","affiliations":[{"id":36394,"text":"University of Idaho","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":942674,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Kidd, Jeff W","contributorId":243473,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kidd","given":"Jeff W","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":942675,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Warne, Robin","contributorId":274838,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Warne","given":"Robin","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":56665,"text":"Cooperative Wildlife Research Laboratory and School of Biological Sciences, Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, IL USA 62901","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":942676,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Macedo, Adrian","contributorId":357839,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Macedo","given":"Adrian","affiliations":[{"id":85556,"text":"Southern Illinois University Carbondale","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":942677,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Conway, Courtney J. 0000-0003-0492-2953 cconway@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0492-2953","contributorId":2951,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Conway","given":"Courtney","email":"cconway@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":942678,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

We applied a recent ecological hazard assessment methodology to identify the biological significance of a database of 21,441 surface water CEC concentrations compiled from 7,162 surface water samples collected at 1,021 sampling sites in 387 individual waterbodies throughout the Great Lakes Basin. We assessed hazard to fish in 12 effect categories (e.g., mortality, developmental, reproductive) from aqueous exposure to 16 emerging contaminants. Our hazard assessment used pairs of screening values to generate contaminant- and effect-specific ordinal hazard scores. Using this novel methodology, we generated a database of 93,864 hazard scores. We found the highest level of hazard to fish, indicating probable adverse impacts, was broadly distributed and often associated with municipalities. Mortality, reproductive, and developmental effect categories combined accounted for 17.5% of high hazard observations. Low hazard, indicating possible adverse effects, was prevalent for numerous effect categories and occurred throughout the period 1991–2021. For mortality, reproductive, and developmental effect categories, the incidence of elevated hazard (low or high hazard) among assessed water samples was 20.4%, 39.5%, and 20.3%, respectively. On a local scale, effect-based assessment is an efficient and conceptually simple tool for natural resource managers to obtain effect- and site-specific hazard information concerning CEC effects in fish that can be used in project planning and results interpretation for natural resource monitoring, restoration, and protection.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Oxford University Press","doi":"10.1093/etojnl/vgaf147","usgsCitation":"Gefell, D.J., Bellamy, A.R., Kiesling, R.L., Elliott, S.M., and Hummel, S.L., 2025, Biological implications for contaminants of emerging concern in the Great Lakes–Upper St Lawrence River drainage: An effect-based ecological hazard assessment in fish: Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, v. 44, no. 10, p. 3004-3023, https://doi.org/10.1093/etojnl/vgaf147.","productDescription":"20 p.","startPage":"3004","endPage":"3023","ipdsId":"IP-147082","costCenters":[{"id":37947,"text":"Upper Midwest Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":494969,"rank":1,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/P93MA2EU","text":"USGS data release","linkHelpText":"Compilation of contaminant of emerging concern concentrations (1991 - 2021) and associated hazard scores for assessment of potential hazard to fish in the Great Lakes Basin"},{"id":494295,"rank":2,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Canada, United States","otherGeospatial":"Great Lakes–Upper St Lawrence River study area","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -90.12093747053447,\n              50.24282738097176\n            ],\n            [\n              -93.18555897072864,\n              46.549737302479485\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.35016735282879,\n              41.120841480697436\n            ],\n            [\n              -81.2766505886645,\n              40.818536101438454\n            ],\n            [\n              -73.52805108109916,\n              43.298089640713215\n            ],\n            [\n              -68.77067561630659,\n              48.516842742090205\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.03461005100947,\n              47.16888316144038\n            ],\n            [\n              -86.53622259614193,\n              49.82835744099062\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.12093747053447,\n              50.24282738097176\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"44","issue":"10","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Gefell, Daniel J.","contributorId":138671,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Gefell","given":"Daniel","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":6678,"text":"U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":946302,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Bellamy, Amber R","contributorId":265773,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Bellamy","given":"Amber","email":"","middleInitial":"R","affiliations":[{"id":36630,"text":"Ohio State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":946304,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Kiesling, Richard L. 0000-0002-3017-1826 kiesling@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3017-1826","contributorId":1837,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kiesling","given":"Richard","email":"kiesling@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":392,"text":"Minnesota Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":37947,"text":"Upper Midwest Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":946303,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Elliott, Sarah M. 0000-0002-1414-3024 selliott@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1414-3024","contributorId":1472,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Elliott","given":"Sarah","email":"selliott@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":392,"text":"Minnesota Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":946305,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Hummel, Stephanie L.","contributorId":359795,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hummel","given":"Stephanie","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":36188,"text":"U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":946306,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

Avian fatalities caused by collisions with overhead power lines are an important conservation issue worldwide. Although mitigation strategies can help reduce mortalities, given their considerable cost and the vast scale of power line infrastructure, cost-effective action requires that these efforts be prioritised to areas with the highest potential risk to birds. To date, this risk assessment has usually been guided by potentially biased information on the location of recorded fatalities. </p><p>2. Here we use five years of GPS tracking data from endangered Tasmanian wedge-tailed eagles to develop an alternative approach to risk assessment: fine-scale spatial risk models based on behavioural analyses. We built and cross-validated a model that generates spatially explicit predictions of the probability that eagles would cross power lines at hazardous altitudes throughout the entire Tasmanian electricity distribution network. </p><p>3. In our model, probability of power line crossings was most strongly associated with the proportion of forest edges, wet forest, open habitat, freshwater sources, and rural residential developments in the area surrounding the power lines. Cross-validation indicated that the model effectively predicted where Tasmanian wedge-tailed eagles cross power lines at low altitude. </p><p>4. Model validation suggested our approach was a powerful predictor of the locations of power line collisions involving eagles. The locations of almost all (94%) confirmed eagle fatalities were in the half of the total Tasmanian power line area assigned the higher risk by the model, and 50% of incidents occurred in the 30% of the power line area estimated to be highest risk. </p><p>5. <i>Synthesis and applications</i>. Our study illustrates a framework for using bird movement data to provide insights into avian behaviour and the risk they encounter around power line infrastructure. Electricity delivery industries can use these models to identify the electrical infrastructure that poses the highest risk to avian survival and prioritise mitigation efforts, thereby optimizing the benefit of investments to reduce detrimental effects on biodiversity. Our model can direct pre-emptive mitigation across Tasmania’s 20,310 km of distribution infrastructure to meet management targets aiming to reduce the negative effects of power lines on the Tasmanian wedge-tailed eagle.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"British Ecological Society","doi":"10.1111/1365-2664.70076","usgsCitation":"Pay, J.M., Cameron, E.Z., Hawkins, C.E., Johnson, C., Koch, A.J., Wiersma, J., and Katzner, T., 2025, Fine-scale spatial risk models to predict avian collisions with power lines: Journal of Applied Ecology, v. 62, no. 8, p. 1820-1830, https://doi.org/10.1111/1365-2664.70076.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"1820","endPage":"1830","ipdsId":"IP-163294","costCenters":[{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":493113,"rank":2,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":493326,"rank":1,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1111/1365-2664.70076","text":"Publisher Index Page"}],"country":"Australia","otherGeospatial":"Tasmania","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              143.86088831282336,\n              -40.405798345451885\n            ],\n            [\n              143.86088831282336,\n              -44.063653865697944\n            ],\n            [\n              149.28385412411444,\n              -44.063653865697944\n            ],\n            [\n              149.28385412411444,\n              -40.405798345451885\n            ],\n            [\n              143.86088831282336,\n              -40.405798345451885\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"62","issue":"8","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Pay, James M.","contributorId":245078,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Pay","given":"James","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":944335,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Cameron, Elissa Z.","contributorId":245084,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Cameron","given":"Elissa","email":"","middleInitial":"Z.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":944336,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Hawkins, Clare E.","contributorId":245079,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hawkins","given":"Clare","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":944337,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Johnson, Christopher","contributorId":334072,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Johnson","given":"Christopher","affiliations":[{"id":36942,"text":"University of California, Berkeley","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":944338,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Koch, Amelia J.","contributorId":245080,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Koch","given":"Amelia","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":944339,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Wiersma, Jason M.","contributorId":358878,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Wiersma","given":"Jason M.","affiliations":[{"id":85698,"text":"Forest Practices Authority, 30 Patrick St, Hobart, TAS, AustraliaForest Practices Authority, 30 Patrick St, Hobart, TAS, Australia","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":944340,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Katzner, Todd E. 0000-0003-4503-8435 tkatzner@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4503-8435","contributorId":191353,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Katzner","given":"Todd E.","email":"tkatzner@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":944341,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}

Monitoring the effectiveness of ISCO can be hindered because of insufficient observations to assess oxidant delivery. Advantageously, potassium permanganate, one type of oxidant, provides the opportunity to use its strong electrical signal as a surrogate to track oxidant delivery using time-series borehole geophysical methods, like electromagnetic (EM) induction logging. Here we report a passive ISCO (P-ISCO) experiment, using potassium permanganate cylinders emplaced in boreholes, at a chlorinated ethene contamination site, Naval Air Station Pensacola, Florida. The contaminants are found primarily at the base of a shallow sandy aquifer in contact with an underlying silty-clay confining bed. We used results of the time-series borehole logging collected between 2017 and 2022 in 4 monitoring wells to track oxidant delivery. The EM-induction logs from the monitoring wells showed an increase in EM response primarily along the contact, likely from pooling of the oxidant, during P-ISCO treatment in 2021. Interestingly, concurrent natural gamma-ray (NGR) logging showed a decrease in NGR response at 3 of the 4 wells possibly from the formation of manganese precipitates coating sediments. The coupling of time-series logging and well-chemistry data allowed for an improved assessment of passive ISCO treatment effectiveness.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"MDPI","doi":"10.3390/hydrology12060155","usgsCitation":"Harte, P., Singletary, M., and Landmeyer, J., 2025, Borehole geophysical time-series logging to monitor passive ISCO treatment of residual chlorinated-ethenes in a confining bed, NAS Pensacola, Florida: Hydrology Journal, v. 12, no. 6, 155, 21 p., https://doi.org/10.3390/hydrology12060155.","productDescription":"155, 21 p.","ipdsId":"IP-172305","costCenters":[{"id":466,"text":"New England Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":491498,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.3390/hydrology12060155","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":491184,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Florida","city":"Pensacola","otherGeospatial":"NAS Pensacola","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -87.35238712915951,\n              30.378828812173666\n            ],\n            [\n              -87.35238712915951,\n              30.32983549008638\n            ],\n            [\n              -87.23991634365869,\n              30.32983549008638\n            ],\n            [\n              -87.23991634365869,\n              30.378828812173666\n            ],\n            [\n              -87.35238712915951,\n              30.378828812173666\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"12","issue":"6","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Harte, Philip 0000-0002-7718-1204","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7718-1204","contributorId":217273,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Harte","given":"Philip","affiliations":[{"id":466,"text":"New England Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":941145,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Singletary, Michael A.","contributorId":357307,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Singletary","given":"Michael A.","affiliations":[{"id":85401,"text":"U.S. Navy Facilities Command, Southeast","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":941146,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Landmeyer, James E. 0000-0002-5640-3816","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5640-3816","contributorId":346430,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Landmeyer","given":"James E.","affiliations":[{"id":13634,"text":"South Atlantic Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":941147,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Tag–return studies are one approach that can be used to assess the efficacy of targeted removals. However, there are many decisions to make when designing a tag–return study. We used simulation modeling to outline general guidelines for consideration when designing efficient tag–return studies to measure annual removal rates of invasive fish, particularly invasive carps.</span></p><p><span>Methods</span></p><p><span>We simulated data sets using scenarios with varying numbers of fish tagged per year, removal rates, tag reporting rates, tag retention rates, and study durations. We generated the data sets under a set of “known” parameters with added stochasticity; we then fitted the simulated data sets to a Bayesian tag–return model and measured the precision and accuracy of the model-estimated removal rates.</span></p><p><span>Results</span></p><p><span>We found that the model was able to predict removal rates without bias for most of the scenarios. However, we did find patterns in the precision of the predictions that could help to inform tag–return studies. When the proportion of the population removed through harvest was constant, the proportion of the population removed per year and the probability that harvested tags were reported had the largest effect on precision. The number of tags released per year and the study duration also had moderate effects. For scenarios testing the ability of the model to predict removal rates in stochastic populations, the precision of the model was primarily influenced by the number of fish tagged, the underlying nature of the stochasticity, and whether fish were tagged during the year of the prediction.</span></p><p><span>Conclusions</span></p><p><span>Based on our simulations, we outline how study objectives, the underlying population variability, and the tolerance range for error can guide decisions regarding the number of fish to tag, how to monitor tag return rates, and how long to conduct a study.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"American Fisheries Society","doi":"10.1093/najfmt/vqaf049","usgsCitation":"Stanton, J.C., Marcek, B.J., and Brey, M.K., 2025, Considerations for using tag-returns to monitor targeted removal of invasive fishes: North American Journal of Fisheries Management, v. 45, no. 4, p. 669-683, https://doi.org/10.1093/najfmt/vqaf049.","productDescription":"15 p.","startPage":"669","endPage":"683","ipdsId":"IP-164064","costCenters":[{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":501964,"rank":1,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/P13DJCBK","text":"USGS data release","linkHelpText":"Code release for simulated tag-return study for monitoring invasive fish removals"},{"id":501681,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1093/najfmt/vqaf049","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":501474,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"45","issue":"4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Stanton, Jessica C. 0000-0002-6225-3703 jcstanton@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6225-3703","contributorId":5634,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Stanton","given":"Jessica","email":"jcstanton@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":957555,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Marcek, Benjamin J.","contributorId":367732,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Marcek","given":"Benjamin","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":36188,"text":"U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":957556,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Brey, Marybeth K. 0000-0003-4403-9655 mbrey@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4403-9655","contributorId":187651,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Brey","given":"Marybeth","email":"mbrey@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":957557,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}
