In 2007, the “Preliminary Non-Fuel Resource Assessment of Afghanistan 2007” was completed by members of the U.S. Geological Survey and Afghan Geological Survey (Peters and others, 2007). The assessment delineated 20 mineralized areas for further study using a geologic-based methodology. In 2011, a follow-on data product, “Summaries and Data Packages of Important Areas for Mineral Investment and Production Opportunities of Nonfuel Minerals in Afghanistan,” was released (Peters and others, 2011). As part of this more recent work, geologic, geohydrologic, and hyperspectral studies were carried out in the areas of interest (AOIs) to assess the location and characteristics of the mineral resources. The 2011 publication included a dataset of 24 identified AOIs containing subareas, a corresponding digital elevation model (DEM), elevation contours, areal extent, and hydrography for each AOI. In 2012, project scientists identified five new AOIs and two subareas in Afghanistan. These new areas are Ahankashan, Kandahar, Parwan, North Bamyan, and South Bamyan. The two identified subareas include Obatu-Shela and Sekhab-ZamtoKalay, both located within the larger Kandahar AOI. In addition, an extended Kandahar AOI is included in the project for water resource modeling purposes. The dataset presented in this publication consists of the areal extent of the five new AOIs, two subareas, and the extended Kandahar AOI, elevation contours at 100-, 50-, and 25-meter intervals, an enhanced DEM, and a hydrographic dataset covering the extent of the new study area. The resulting raster and vector layers are intended for use by government agencies, developmental organizations, and private companies in Afghanistan to assist with mineral assessments, monitoring, management, and investment.","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/ofr20131124","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the Afghan Geological Survey under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Defense Task Force for Business and Stability Operations","usgsCitation":"Casey, B.N., and Chirico, P., 2013, Topographic and hydrographic GIS datasets for the Afghan Geological Survey and U.S. Geological Survey 2013 mineral areas of interest: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 2013-1124, Report: vi, 18 p.; Downloads Directory, https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr20131124.","productDescription":"Report: vi, 18 p.; Downloads Directory","numberOfPages":"26","onlineOnly":"Y","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","costCenters":[{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":275158,"type":{"id":7,"text":"Companion Files"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2013/1124/Downloads"},{"id":275159,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/ofr20131124.gif"},{"id":275156,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2013/1124/"},{"id":275157,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2013/1124/pdf/ofr2013-1124.pdf"}],"country":"Afghanistan","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ 60.52,29.38 ], [ 60.52,38.49 ], [ 74.89,38.49 ], [ 74.89,29.38 ], [ 60.52,29.38 ] ] ] } } ] }","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"51e90055e4b0e157e9e86eea","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Casey, Brittany N.","contributorId":69037,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Casey","given":"Brittany","email":"","middleInitial":"N.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":481085,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Chirico, Peter G.","contributorId":27086,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Chirico","given":"Peter G.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":481084,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

However, causes of plant mortality, which are central to vegetation change, are understudied, and physiological mechanisms remain unclear, particularly the roles of carbon metabolism and xylem function.\n* We report analysis of foliar nonstructural carbohydrates (NSCs) and associated physiology from a previous experiment where earlier drought-induced mortality of Pinus edulis at elevated temperatures was associated with greater cumulative respiration. Here, we predicted faster NSC decline for warmed trees than for ambient-temperature trees.\n* Foliar NSC in droughted trees declined by 30% through mortality and was lower than in watered controls. NSC decline resulted primarily from decreased sugar concentrations. Starch initially declined, and then increased above pre-drought concentrations before mortality. Although temperature did not affect NSC and sugar, starch concentrations ceased declining and increased earlier with higher temperatures.\n* Reduced foliar NSC during lethal drought indicates a carbon metabolism role in mortality mechanism. Although carbohydrates were not completely exhausted at mortality, temperature differences in starch accumulation timing suggest that carbon metabolism changes are associated with time to death. Drought mortality appears to be related to temperature-dependent carbon dynamics concurrent with increasing hydraulic stress in P. edulis and potentially other similar species.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"New Phytologist","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"New Phytologist Trust","doi":"10.1111/nph.12102","usgsCitation":"Adams, H., Germino, M., Breshears, D.D., Barron-Gafford, G.A., Guardiola-Claramonte, M., Zou, C., and Huxman, T.E., 2013, Nonstructural leaf carbohydrates dynamics of <i>Pinus edulis</i> during drought-induced tree mortality reveal role for carbon metabolism in mortality mechanism: New Phytologist, v. 197, no. 4, p. 1142-1151, https://doi.org/10.1111/nph.12102.","productDescription":"10 p.","startPage":"1142","endPage":"1151","ipdsId":"IP-041844","costCenters":[{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473669,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1111/nph.12102","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":275141,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":275140,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1111/nph.12102"}],"volume":"197","issue":"4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2013-01-11","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"51e90055e4b0e157e9e86ee6","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Adams, Henry D.","contributorId":105619,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Adams","given":"Henry D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":481056,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Germino, Matthew J.","contributorId":50029,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Germino","given":"Matthew J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":481052,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Breshears, David D.","contributorId":51620,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Breshears","given":"David","email":"","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[{"id":7042,"text":"University of Arizona","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":481053,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Barron-Gafford, Greg A.","contributorId":19058,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Barron-Gafford","given":"Greg","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":7042,"text":"University of Arizona","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":481050,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Guardiola-Claramonte, Maite","contributorId":54092,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Guardiola-Claramonte","given":"Maite","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":481055,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Zou, Chris B.","contributorId":31657,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Zou","given":"Chris B.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":481051,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Huxman, Travis E.","contributorId":53898,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Huxman","given":"Travis","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":481054,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}

This study investigated the effects of hydrologic connectivity to stream water on soil nutrient fluxes in plots (n = 20) located among four created and two natural freshwater wetlands of varying hydrology in the Piedmont physiographic province of Virginia. Surface water was slightly deeper; hydrologic inputs of sediment, sediment-N, and ammonium were greater; and soil net ammonification, N mineralization, and N turnover were greater in plots with stream water classified as their primary water source compared with plots with precipitation or groundwater as their primary water source. Soil water-filled pore space, inputs of nitrate, and soil net nitrification, P mineralization, and denitrification enzyme activity (DEA) were similar among plots. Soil ammonification, N mineralization, and N turnover rates increased with the loading rate of ammonium to the soil surface. Phosphorus mineralization and ammonification also increased with sedimentation and sediment-N loading rate. Nitrification flux and DEA were positively associated in these wetlands. In conclusion, hydrologic connectivity to stream water increased allochthonous inputs that stimulated soil N and P cycling and that likely led to greater retention of sediment and nutrients in created and natural wetlands. Our findings suggest that wetland creation and restoration projects should be designed to allow connectivity with stream water if the goal is to optimize the function of water quality improvement in a watershed.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Journal of Environmental Quality","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"Crop Science Society of America","doi":"10.2134/jeq2012.0466","usgsCitation":"Wolf, K.L., Noe, G., and Ahn, C., 2013, Hydrologic connectivity to streams increases nitrogen and phosphorus inputs and cycling in soils of created and natural floodplain wetlands: Journal of Environmental Quality, v. 42, no. 4, p. 1245-1255, https://doi.org/10.2134/jeq2012.0466.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"1245","endPage":"1255","costCenters":[{"id":434,"text":"National Research Program","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":275139,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":275138,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.2134/jeq2012.0466"}],"volume":"42","issue":"4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2013-07-01","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"51e90054e4b0e157e9e86ee2","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Wolf, Kristin L.","contributorId":92151,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wolf","given":"Kristin","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":481049,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Noe, Gregory B.","contributorId":77805,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Noe","given":"Gregory B.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":481048,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Ahn, Changwoo","contributorId":38047,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ahn","given":"Changwoo","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":481047,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Model-estimated nutrient yields were generally higher in catchments on the wetter, western side of the Cascade Range than in catchments on the drier, eastern side. The largest source of locally generated total nitrogen stream load in most catchments was runoff from forestland, whereas the largest source of locally generated total phosphorus stream load in most catchments was either geologic material or livestock manure (primarily from grazing livestock). However, the highest total nitrogen and total phosphorus yields were predicted in the relatively small number of catchments where urban sources were the largest contributor to local stream load. Two examples are presented that show how SPARROW results can be applied to large rivers—the relative contribution of different nutrient sources to the total nitrogen load in the Willamette River and the total phosphorus load in the Snake River. The results from this study provided an understanding of the regional patterns in surface-water nutrient conditions and should be useful to researchers and water-quality managers performing local nutrient assessments.","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sir20135103","usgsCitation":"Wise, D.R., and Johnson, H.M., 2013, Application of the SPARROW model to assess surface-water nutrient conditions and sources in the United States Pacific Northwest: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2013-5103, vi, 32 p.; 2 Appendixes; ASCII Data File, https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20135103.","productDescription":"vi, 32 p.; 2 Appendixes; ASCII Data File","numberOfPages":"42","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","costCenters":[{"id":518,"text":"Oregon Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":275137,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/sir20135103.jpg"},{"id":275133,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2013/5103/pdf/sir20135103.pdf"},{"id":275134,"type":{"id":3,"text":"Appendix"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2013/5103/pdf/sir20135103_appendix_a.pdf"},{"id":275135,"type":{"id":3,"text":"Appendix"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2013/5103/pdf/sir20135103_appendix_b.pdf"},{"id":275136,"type":{"id":7,"text":"Companion Files"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2013/5103/sir20135103_PNW_SPARROW_NHD_predict_data.txt"},{"id":275132,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2013/5103/"}],"country":"United States","otherGeospatial":"Pacific Northwest","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -126.0,41.0 ], [ -126.0,50.0 ], [ -109.0,50.0 ], [ -109.0,41.0 ], [ -126.0,41.0 ] ] ] } } ] }","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"51e9004ee4b0e157e9e86ed6","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Wise, Daniel R. 0000-0002-1215-9612 dawise@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1215-9612","contributorId":29891,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wise","given":"Daniel","email":"dawise@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":518,"text":"Oregon Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":481045,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Johnson, Henry M. 0000-0002-7571-4994","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7571-4994","contributorId":105291,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Johnson","given":"Henry","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":481046,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

Usually, the model of F&G is applied in one of two ways: (1) using a single <sup>13</sup>C fractionation factor of gaseous CO<sub>2</sub> with respect to a solid carbonate mineral, εg/s, regardless of whether the carbon isotopic exchange is controlled by soil CO<sub>2</sub> in the unsaturated zone, or by solid carbonate mineral in the saturated zone; or (2) using different fractionation factors if the exchange process is dominated by soil CO<sub>2</sub> gas as opposed to solid carbonate mineral (typically calcite). An analysis of the F&G model shows an inadequate conceptualization, resulting in underestimation of the initial <sup>14</sup>C values (<sup>14</sup>C<sub>0</sub>) for groundwater systems that have undergone isotopic exchange. The degree to which the <sup>14</sup>C<sub>0</sub> is underestimated increases with the extent of isotopic exchange. Examples show that in extreme cases, the error in calculated adjusted initial <sup>14</sup>C values can be more than 20% modern carbon (pmc). A model is derived that revises the mass balance method of F&G by using a modified model conceptualization. The derivation yields a “global” model both for carbon isotopic exchange dominated by gaseous CO<sub>2</sub> in the unsaturated zone, and for carbon isotopic exchange dominated by solid carbonate mineral in the saturated zone. However, the revised model requires different parameters for exchange dominated by gaseous CO<sub>2</sub> as opposed to exchange dominated by solid carbonate minerals. The revised model for exchange dominated by gaseous CO<sub>2</sub> is shown to be identical to the model of Mook (Mook, 1976). For groundwater systems where exchange occurs both in the unsaturated zone and saturated zone, the revised model can still be used; however, <sup>14</sup>C<sub>0</sub> will be slightly underestimated. Finally, in carbonate systems undergoing complex geochemical reactions, such as oxidation of organic carbon, radiocarbon ages are best estimated by inverse geochemical modeling techniques.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Chemical Geology","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.chemgeo.2013.05.011","usgsCitation":"Han, L., and Plummer, N., 2013, Revision of Fontes & Garnier's model for the initial <sup>14</sup>C content of dissolved inorganic carbon used in groundwater dating: Chemical Geology, v. 351, p. 105-114, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemgeo.2013.05.011.","productDescription":"10 p.","startPage":"105","endPage":"114","ipdsId":"IP-045165","costCenters":[{"id":436,"text":"National Research Program - Eastern Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473674,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemgeo.2013.05.011","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":275107,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":273714,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.chemgeo.2013.05.011"}],"country":"United States","volume":"351","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"51e7aed7e4b080b82b09c616","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Han, Liang-Feng","contributorId":101537,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Han","given":"Liang-Feng","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":479806,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Plummer, Niel 0000-0002-4020-1013 nplummer@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4020-1013","contributorId":190100,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Plummer","given":"Niel","email":"nplummer@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":436,"text":"National Research Program - Eastern Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":479805,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

Intensive urbanization of the southeast Florida coast and intensification of climate change over the last few centuries changed the character of coastal ecosystems in the semi-enclosed Biscayne Bay, Florida. In order to develop management policies for the Bay, it is vital to obtain reliable scientific evidence of past ecological conditions. The long-term records of subfossil diatoms obtained from No Name Bank and Featherbed Bank in the Central Biscayne Bay, and from the Card Sound Bank in the neighboring Card Sound, were used to study the magnitude of the environmental change caused by climate variability and water management over the last ~ 600 yr. Analyses of these records revealed that the major shifts in the diatom assemblage structures at No Name Bank occurred in 1956, at Featherbed Bank in 1966, and at Card Sound Bank in 1957. Smaller magnitude shifts were also recorded at Featherbed Bank in 1893, 1942, 1974 and 1983. Most of these changes coincided with severe drought periods that developed during the cold phases of El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO), Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) and Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO), or when AMO was in warm phase and PDO was in the cold phase. Only the 1983 change coincided with an unusually wet period that developed during the warm phases of ENSO and PDO. Quantitative reconstructions of salinity using the weighted averaging partial least squares (WA-PLS) diatom-based salinity model revealed a gradual increase in salinity at the three coring locations over the last ~ 600 yr, which was primarily caused by continuously rising sea level and in the last several decades also by the reduction of the amount of freshwater inflow from the mainland. Concentration of sediment total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP) and total organic carbon (TOC) increased in the second half of the 20th century, which coincided with the construction of canals, landfills, marinas and water treatment plants along the western margin of Biscayne Bay. Increased magnitude and rate of the diatom assemblage restructuring in the mid- and late-1900s, suggest that large environmental changes are occurring more rapidly now than in the past.","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.palaeo.2012.12.020","usgsCitation":"Wachnicka, A., Gaiser, E., Wingard, G.L., Briceno, H., and Harlem, P., 2013, Impact of Late Holocene climate variability and anthropogenic activities on Biscayne Bay (Florida, U.S.A.): Evidence from diatoms: Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, v. 371, p. 80-92, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.palaeo.2012.12.020.","productDescription":"13 p.","startPage":"80","endPage":"92","ipdsId":"IP-038980","costCenters":[{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":563,"text":"South Florida Information Access","active":false,"usgs":true},{"id":40020,"text":"Florence Bascom Geoscience Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":275111,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Florida","otherGeospatial":"Biscayne Bay","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -80.313083,25.414719 ], [ -80.313083,25.920597 ], [ -80.125669,25.920597 ], [ -80.125669,25.414719 ], [ -80.313083,25.414719 ] ] ] } } ] }","volume":"371","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"51e7aed6e4b080b82b09c60a","chorus":{"doi":"10.1016/j.palaeo.2012.12.020","url":"http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.palaeo.2012.12.020","publisher":"Elsevier BV","authors":"Wachnicka Anna, Gaiser Evelyn, Wingard Lynn, Briceo Henry, Harlem Peter","journalName":"Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology","publicationDate":"2/2013","auditedOn":"11/1/2014"},"contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Wachnicka, Anna","contributorId":15500,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wachnicka","given":"Anna","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":480539,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Gaiser, Evelyn","contributorId":61727,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Gaiser","given":"Evelyn","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":480541,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Wingard, G.

The effects of sediment size on turbidity are well documented; however, effects from changes in particle size distributions (PSD) are rarely evaluated. Hysteresis in relations of SSC-to-turbidity (SSC~T) for single stormflow events was observed and quantified for a data set of 195 concurrent measurements of SSC, turbidity, discharge, velocity, and volumetric PSD collected during five stormflows in 2009–2010 on Yellow River at Gees Mill Road in metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia. Regressions of SSC-normalized turbidity (T/SSC) on concurrently measured PSD percentiles show an inverse, exponential influence of particle size on turbidity that is not constant across the size range of the PSD. The majority of the influence of PSD on T/SSC is from particles of fine-silt and smaller sizes (finer than 16 microns). This study shows that small changes in the often assumed stability of the PSD are significant to SSC~T relations. Changes of only 5 microns in the fine silt and smaller size fractions of suspended sediment PSD can produce hysteresis in the SSC~T rating that can increase error and produce bias. Observed SSC~T hysteresis may be an indicator of changes in sediment properties during stormflows and of potential changes in sediment sources. Trends in the PSD time series indicate that sediment transport is capacity-limited for sand-sized sediment in the channel and supply-limited for fine silt and smaller sediment from the hillslope.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Water Resources Research","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"American Geophysical Union","doi":"10.1002/wrcr.20394","usgsCitation":"Landers, M.N., and Sturm, T.W., 2013, Hysteresis in suspended sediment to turbidity relations due to changing particle size distributions: Water Resources Research, v. 49, no. 9, p. 5487-5500, https://doi.org/10.1002/wrcr.20394.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"5487","endPage":"5500","numberOfPages":"14","ipdsId":"IP-040416","costCenters":[{"id":502,"text":"Office of Surface Water","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":275109,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":275108,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1002/wrcr.20394"}],"scale":"100000","country":"United States","state":"Georgia","otherGeospatial":"Yellow River","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -84.256897,33.648922 ], [ -84.256897,34.100434 ], [ -83.909626,34.100434 ], [ -83.909626,33.648922 ], [ -84.256897,33.648922 ] ] ] } } ] }","volume":"49","issue":"9","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2013-09-09","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"51e7aed6e4b080b82b09c606","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Landers, Mark N. 0000-0002-3014-0480 landers@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3014-0480","contributorId":1103,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Landers","given":"Mark","email":"landers@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"N.","affiliations":[{"id":502,"text":"Office of Surface Water","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":480452,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Sturm, Terry W.","contributorId":36445,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Sturm","given":"Terry","email":"","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":480453,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

Numerous springs issue from rock outcrops within and surrounding the Trinity aquifer in northern Bexar County (fig. 1). The effects of increased groundwater withdrawals from the Trinity aquifer on springflow in the area are not well documented, but because the total amount of water entering, leaving, and being stored in a groundwater system must be conserved, increased groundwater withdrawals will result in decreases in springflow (Alley and others, 1999). Documenting the location, discharge, and basic water-quality information of the springs in northern Bexar County can provide a baseline assessment for comparison to future conditions. Accordingly, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Trinity Glen Rose Groundwater Conservation District, the Edwards Aquifer Authority, and the San Antonio River Authority, developed a geodatabase populated with data associated with springs within and surrounding outcrops of the Trinity aquifer in northern Bexar County during 2010&ndash;11.

Results indicate two modes of joint variability that explain 57% of the variability in FLD and 69% of the variability in SWE. The first mode of joint variability is related to widespread late winter–spring warming or cooling across the entire west. The second mode can be described as a north–south dipole in temperature for FLD, as well as in cool season temperature and precipitation for SWE, that is closely correlated to the El Niño–Southern Oscillation. Additionally, both modes of variability indicate a relation with the Pacific–North American atmospheric pattern. These results indicate that there is a substantial amount of common variance in FLD and SWE that is related to large-scale modes of climate variability.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"American Meteorological Society","doi":"10.1175/2013EI000549.1","usgsCitation":"McCabe, G., Betancourt, J.L., Pederson, G.T., and Schwartz, M., 2013, Variability common to first leaf dates and snowpack in the western conterminous United States: Earth Interactions, v. 17, Paper 26: 18 p., https://doi.org/10.1175/2013EI000549.1.","productDescription":"Paper 26: 18 p.","ipdsId":"IP-049239","costCenters":[{"id":5044,"text":"National Research Program - Central Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":473677,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1175/2013ei000549.1","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":344780,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -127.35351562499999,\n              28.69058765425071\n            ],\n            [\n              -103.095703125,\n              28.69058765425071\n            ],\n            [\n              -103.095703125,\n              49.38237278700955\n            ],\n            [\n              -127.35351562499999,\n              49.38237278700955\n            ],\n            [\n              -127.35351562499999,\n              28.69058765425071\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"17","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":2,"text":"Denver PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2013-11-26","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5990139ae4b09fa1cb178931","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"McCabe, Gregory J. 0000-0002-9258-2997 gmccabe@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9258-2997","contributorId":167116,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"McCabe","given":"Gregory J.","email":"gmccabe@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":438,"text":"National Research Program - Western Branch","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":5044,"text":"National Research Program - Central Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":707571,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Betancourt, Julio L. 0000-0002-7165-0743 jlbetanc@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7165-0743","contributorId":3376,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Betancourt","given":"Julio","email":"jlbetanc@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":554,"text":"Science and Decisions Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":436,"text":"National Research Program - Eastern Branch","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":438,"text":"National Research Program - Western Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":707572,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Pederson, Gregory T. 0000-0002-6014-1425 gpederson@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6014-1425","contributorId":3106,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Pederson","given":"Gregory","email":"gpederson@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[{"id":481,"text":"Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":707573,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Schwartz, Mark D.","contributorId":11092,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Schwartz","given":"Mark D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":707574,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

For\n26% of the lakes studied, evaporative losses exceeded\nsupply.

During 2008 and 2009 we collected a time series of virus samples from six deep municipal water-supply wells. The wells range in depth from approximately 220 to 300 m and draw water from a sandstone aquifer. Three of these wells draw water from beneath a regional aquitard, and three draw water from both above and below the aquitard. We also sampled a local lake and untreated sewage as potential virus sources. Viruses were detected up to 61% of the time in each well sampled, and many groundwater samples were positive for virus infectivity. Lake samples contained viruses over 75% of the time. Virus concentrations and serotypes observed varied markedly with time in all samples. Sewage samples were all extremely high in virus concentration. Virus serotypes detected in sewage and groundwater were temporally correlated, suggesting very rapid virus transport, on the order of weeks, from the source(s) to wells. Adenovirus and enterovirus levels in the wells were associated with precipitation events. The most likely source of the viruses in the wells was leakage of untreated sewage from sanitary sewer pipes.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Environmental Science and Technology","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"ACS Publications","doi":"10.1021/es400509b","usgsCitation":"Bradbury, K.R., Borchardt, M., Gotkowitz, M., Spencer, S., Zhu, J., and Hunt, R.J., 2013, Source and transport of human enteric viruses in deep municipal water supply wells: Environmental Science & Technology, v. 47, no. 9, p. 4096-4103, https://doi.org/10.1021/es400509b.","productDescription":"8 p.","startPage":"4096","endPage":"4103","numberOfPages":"8","ipdsId":"IP-045591","costCenters":[{"id":677,"text":"Wisconsin Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":275089,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":275088,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1021/es400509b"}],"country":"United States","state":"Wisconsin","city":"Madison","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -89.556084,42.999625 ], [ -89.556084,43.169129 ], [ -89.244003,43.169129 ], [ -89.244003,42.999625 ], [ -89.556084,42.999625 ] ] ] } } ] }","volume":"47","issue":"9","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2013-04-19","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"51e65d59e4b017be1ba34739","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Bradbury, Kenneth R.","contributorId":49419,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bradbury","given":"Kenneth","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":478471,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Borchardt, Mark A.","contributorId":106255,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Borchardt","given":"Mark A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":478473,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Gotkowitz, Madeline","contributorId":32428,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Gotkowitz","given":"Madeline","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":478469,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Spencer, Susan K.","contributorId":39511,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Spencer","given":"Susan K.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":478470,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Zhu, Jun","contributorId":73485,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Zhu","given":"Jun","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":478472,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Hunt, Randall J. 0000-0001-6465-9304 rjhunt@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6465-9304","contributorId":1129,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hunt","given":"Randall","email":"rjhunt@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":677,"text":"Wisconsin Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":478468,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

Despite the discharge of substantial amounts of suspended sediment from many of these rivers, as well as the probable influx of substantial amounts of eroded material from the surrounding basins, the geochemical effects on the <63-µm fractions of the bed sediments appear relatively limited [<20% of the constituents determined (256 out of 1394)]. Based on surface area measurements, this lack of change occurred despite substantial alterations in both the grain size distribution and the composition of the bed sediments. The sediment-associated constituents which display both concentration increases and decreases include: total sulfur (TS), Hg, Ag, total organic carbon (TOC), total nitrogen (TN), Zn, Se, Co, Cu, Pb, As, Cr, and total carbon (TC). As a group, these constituents tend to be associated either with urbanization/elevated population densities and/or wastewater/solid sludge. The limited number of significant sediment-associated chemical changes that were detected probably resulted from two potential processes: (1) the flushing of in-stream land-use affected sediments that were replaced by baseline material more representative of local geology and/or soils (declining concentrations), and/or (2) the inclusion of more heavily affected material as a result of urban nonpoint-source runoff and/or releases from flooded treatment facilities (increasing concentrations).

Among the city’s potential water sources are city wells that produce water that exceeds the 10 micrograms per liter primary drinking-water standard for arsenic. The City of Norman was interested in investigating low-cost means of using natural attenuation to remove arsenic from well water and augment the water supply of Lake Thunderbird, the primary water source for the city. The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the City of Norman, conducted a preliminary investigation (pilot study) to determine if discharge of water from those wells into the Little River over a 12-day period would reduce arsenic concentrations through natural-attenuation processes. Water in the Little River flows into Lake Thunderbird, the principal water source for the city, so the discharged well water would improve the water balance of that reservoir.\n\nDuring this pilot study, 150–250 gallons per minute from each of six city wells were discharged to the Little River over a 12-day period. Water-quality samples were collected from the wells during discharge and from the river before, during, and after well discharges. Streambed-sediment samples were collected at nine sites in the river before and after the well-discharge period. Water discharge from the six wells added 0.3 kilogram per day of arsenic to the river at the nearest downstream streamflow-gaging station. Dissolved arsenic concentration in the Little River at the closest downstream sampling site from the wells increased from about 4 micrograms per liter to as much as 24 micrograms per liter. Base flow in the river increased by about 1.7 cubic feet per second at the nearest downstream streamflow-gaging station. Streamflow in the river was two-thirds of that expected from the amount of water discharged from the wells because of seepage to soils and evapotranspiration of well water along drainage ways to the river. Arsenic concentrations at the nearest downstream streamflow-gaging station were less than arsenic concentrations measured in many of the well-water samples during the well-pumping period.\n\nArsenic concentrations, loads, and yields in the Little River generally decreased downstream from the closest streamflow-gaging station to the wells by 50 percent or more, indicating removal of about 0.25 kilogram or 0.53 pound per day of arsenic during base-flow conditions. Measured river-water arsenic concentrations near the confluence of the Little River with Lake Thunderbird were in compliance with the primary drinking-water standard. Arsenic concentrations measured at four downstream stations in the Little River also were less than established criteria set for protection of aquatic biota. After well discharges to the Little River were stopped, arsenic concentrations, loads, and yields in the river gradually decreased over 14 days to concentrations measured prior to the well-water discharges. Cumulative loads of arsenic discharged at the wells and the closest and farthest downstream streamflow-gaging stations indicated removal of about 2.5 kilograms of arsenic as well-water flowed to and down the river. Arsenic concentrations in streambed-sediment samples collected before and after the well-water discharges were not significantly different. Results of this pilot study indicate that using natural-attenuation processes to remove arsenic from water and supplement city water supplies may be a viable, relatively low-cost method for attenuating arsenic in well water and for augmenting the water supply of Lake Thunderbird.","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sir20135055","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the City of Norman, Oklahoma","usgsCitation":"Andrews, W.J., Masoner, J.R., Rendon, S.H., Smith, K.A., Greer, J.R., and Chatterton, L.A., 2013, Pilot study of natural attenuation of arsenic in well water discharged to the Little River above Lake Thunderbird, Norman, Oklahoma, 2012: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2013-5055, vii, 31 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20135055.","productDescription":"vii, 31 p.","numberOfPages":"43","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","costCenters":[{"id":516,"text":"Oklahoma Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":275060,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/sir20135055.gif"},{"id":275059,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2013/5055/sir2013-5055.pdf"}],"country":"United States","state":"Oklahoma","city":"Norman","otherGeospatial":"Lake Thunderbird","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -98.0,34.75 ], [ -98.0,36.1 ], [ -96.5,36.1 ], [ -96.5,34.75 ], [ -98.0,34.75 ] ] ] } } ] }","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"51e65d58e4b017be1ba34735","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Andrews, William J. 0000-0003-4780-8835 wandrews@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4780-8835","contributorId":328,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Andrews","given":"William","email":"wandrews@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":516,"text":"Oklahoma Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":480951,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Masoner, Jason R. 0000-0002-4829-6379 jmasoner@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4829-6379","contributorId":3193,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Masoner","given":"Jason","email":"jmasoner@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":436,"text":"National Research Program - Eastern Branch","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":516,"text":"Oklahoma Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":480953,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Rendon, Samuel H. 0000-0001-5589-0563 srendon@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5589-0563","contributorId":3940,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rendon","given":"Samuel","email":"srendon@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"H.","affiliations":[{"id":583,"text":"Texas Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":480954,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Smith, Kevin A. 0000-0001-6846-5929","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6846-5929","contributorId":50612,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Smith","given":"Kevin","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":48595,"text":"Oklahoma-Texas Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":480956,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Greer, James R. jrgreer@usgs.gov","contributorId":978,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Greer","given":"James","email":"jrgreer@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":true,"id":480952,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Chatterton, Logan A.","contributorId":28882,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Chatterton","given":"Logan","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":480955,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

This type of discharge estimate is called an “indirect measurement” because it relies on evidence left behind by the flood, such as high-water marks on trees or buildings. When combined with the cross-sectional geometry of the channel upstream from the culvert and the culvert size, shape, roughness, and orientation, the high-water marks define a water-surface profile that can be used to estimate the peak discharge by using the methods described by Bodhaine (1968). This type of measurement is in contrast to a “direct” measurement of discharge made during the flood where cross-sectional area is measured and a current meter or acoustic equipment is used to measure the water velocity. When a direct discharge measurement cannot be made at a streamgage during high flows because of logistics or safety reasons, an indirect measurement of a peak discharge is useful for defining the high-flow section of the stage-discharge relation (rating curve) at the streamgage, resulting in more accurate computation of high flows. The Culvert Analysis Program (CAP) (Fulford, 1998) is a command-line program written in Fortran for computing peak discharges and culvert rating surfaces or curves. CAP reads input data from a formatted text file and prints results to another formatted text file. Preparing and correctly formatting the input file may be time-consuming and prone to errors.

To address this complexity, we used a chronosequence approach to assess changes in vegetation composition, water storage and soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks along successional gradients within four landscapes: (1) rocky uplands on ice-poor hillside colluvium, (2) silty uplands on extremely ice-rich loess, (3) gravelly–sandy lowlands on ice-poor eolian sand and (4) peaty–silty lowlands on thick ice-rich peat deposits over reworked lowland loess. In rocky uplands, after fire permafrost thawed rapidly due to low ice contents, soils became well drained and SOC stocks decreased slightly. In silty uplands, after fire permafrost persisted, soils remained saturated and SOC decreased slightly. In gravelly–sandy lowlands where permafrost persisted in drier forest soils, loss of deeper permafrost around lakes has allowed recent widespread drainage of lakes that has exposed limnic material with high SOC to aerobic decomposition. In peaty–silty lowlands, 2–4 m of thaw settlement led to fragmented drainage patterns in isolated thermokarst bogs and flooding of soils, and surface soils accumulated new bog peat. We were not able to detect SOC changes in deeper soils, however, due to high variability. Complicated soil stratigraphy revealed that permafrost has repeatedly aggraded and degraded in all landscapes during the Holocene, although in silty uplands only the upper permafrost was affected. Overall, permafrost thaw has led to the reorganization of vegetation, water storage and flow paths, and patterns of SOC accumulation. However, changes have occurred over different timescales among landscapes: over decades in rocky uplands and gravelly–sandy lowlands in response to fire and lake drainage, over decades to centuries in peaty–silty lowlands with a legacy of complicated Holocene changes, and over centuries in silty uplands where ice-rich soil and ecological recovery protect permafrost.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"IOP Science","doi":"10.1088/1748-9326/8/3/035017","usgsCitation":"Jorgenson, M., Harden, J.W., Kanevskiy, M., O'Donnell, J., Wickland, K., Ewing, S., Manies, K.L., Zhuang, Q., Shur, Y., Striegl, R.G., and Koch, J.C., 2013, Reorganization of vegetation, hydrology and soil carbon after permafrost degradation across heterogeneous boreal landscapes: Enivronmental Research Letters, v. 8, no. 3, 035017, 13 p., https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/8/3/035017.","productDescription":"035017, 13 p.","ipdsId":"IP-049320","costCenters":[{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":498470,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/8/3/035017","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":498357,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Alaska","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -141.27773613760382,\n              67.4727665846045\n            ],\n            [\n              -159.5068799426073,\n              67.4727665846045\n            ],\n            [\n              -159.5068799426073,\n              61.63719004329275\n            ],\n            [\n              -141.27773613760382,\n              61.63719004329275\n            ],\n            [\n              -141.27773613760382,\n              67.4727665846045\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"8","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2013-07-16","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Jorgenson, M.T.","contributorId":364861,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Jorgenson","given":"M.T.","affiliations":[{"id":13506,"text":"Alaska Ecoscience","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":953338,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Harden, Jennifer W. 0000-0002-6570-8259 jharden@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6570-8259","contributorId":1971,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Harden","given":"Jennifer","email":"jharden@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":615,"text":"Volcano Hazards Program","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":312,"text":"Geology, Minerals, Energy, and Geophysics Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":953339,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Kanevskiy, M.","contributorId":364863,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kanevskiy","given":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":86994,"text":"Dept. of Civil and Environmental Engineering -

Viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV) is enzootic in BC and causes serious disease in wild Pacific herring, Clupea pallasii, which often enter and remain in Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, netpens. Isolation of VHSV from farmed Atlantic salmon has been previously documented, but the effects on the health of farmed salmon and the wild fish sharing the environment are unknown. To determine their susceptibility, Atlantic salmon were exposed to a pool of 9 isolates of VHSV obtained from farmed Atlantic salmon in BC by IP-injection or by waterborne exposure and cohabitation with diseased Pacific herring. Disease intensity was quantified by recording mortality, clinical signs, histopathological changes, cellular sites of viral replication, expression of interferon-related genes, and viral tissue titers. Disease ensued in Atlantic salmon after both VHSV exposure methods. Fish demonstrated gross disease signs including darkening of the dorsal skin, bilateral exophthalmia, light cutaneous hemorrhage, and lethargy. The virus replicated within endothelial cells causing endothelial cell necrosis and extensive hemorrhage in anterior kidney. Infected fish demonstrated a type I interferon response as seen by up-regulation of genes for IFNα, Mx, and ISG15. In a separate trial infected salmon transmitted the virus to sympatric Pacific herring. The results demonstrate that farmed Atlantic salmon can develop clinical VHS and virus can persist in the tissues for at least 10 weeks. Avoiding VHS epizootics in Atlantic salmon farms would limit the potential of VHS in farmed Atlantic salmon, the possibility for further host adaptation in this species, and virus spillback to sympatric wild fishes.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Veterinary Microbiology","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.vetmic.2013.05.019","usgsCitation":"Lovy, J., Piesik, P., Hershberger, P., and Garver, K., 2013, Experimental infection studies demonstrating Atlantic salmon as a host and reservoir of viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus type IVa with insights into pathology and host immunity: Veterinary Microbiology, v. 166, no. 1-2, p. 91-101, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.vetmic.2013.05.019.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"91","endPage":"101","ipdsId":"IP-044808","costCenters":[{"id":654,"text":"Western Fisheries Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":274981,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":274875,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.vetmic.2013.05.019"}],"volume":"166","issue":"1-2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"51e50bd9e4b069f8d27cca77","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Lovy, Jan","contributorId":14708,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Lovy","given":"Jan","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":480778,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Piesik, P.","contributorId":82604,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Piesik","given":"P.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":480781,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Hershberger, P.K. 0000-0002-2261-7760","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2261-7760","contributorId":58818,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hershberger","given":"P.K.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":480780,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Garver, K.A.","contributorId":42766,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Garver","given":"K.A.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":480779,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

We compared sampling results from traditional field methods with eDNA methods for two amphibians in 13 streams in central Idaho, USA. We also evaluated three water collection protocols and the influence of sampling location, time of day, and distance from animals on eDNA concentration in the water. We found no difference in detection or amount of eDNA among water collection protocols. eDNA methods had slightly higher detection rates than traditional field methods, particularly when species occurred at low densities. eDNA concentration was positively related to field-measured density, biomass, and proportion of transects occupied. Precision of eDNA-based abundance estimates increased with the amount of eDNA in the water and the number of replicate subsamples collected. eDNA concentration did not vary significantly with sample location in the stream, time of day, or distance downstream from animals. Our results further advance the implementation of eDNA methods for monitoring aquatic vertebrates in stream habitats.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"NRC Research Press","doi":"10.1139/cjfas-2013-0047","usgsCitation":"Pilliod, D., Goldberg, C.S., Arkle, R., and Waits, L.P., 2013, Estimating occupancy and abundance of stream amphibians using environmental DNA from filtered water samples: Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, v. 70, no. 8, p. 1123-1130, https://doi.org/10.1139/cjfas-2013-0047.","productDescription":"8 p.","startPage":"1123","endPage":"1130","ipdsId":"IP-045459","costCenters":[{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":274976,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":274876,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://www.nrcresearchpress.com/doi/pdf/10.1139/cjfas-2013-0047"},{"id":274975,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1139/cjfas-2013-0047"}],"volume":"70","issue":"8","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"51e50bd8e4b069f8d27cca6b","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Pilliod, David S.","contributorId":101760,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Pilliod","given":"David S.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":480785,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Goldberg, Caren S.","contributorId":76879,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Goldberg","given":"Caren","email":"","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[{"id":5132,"text":"Washington State University, Pullman","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":480783,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Arkle, Robert S.","contributorId":55679,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Arkle","given":"Robert S.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":480782,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Waits, Lisette P.","contributorId":87673,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Waits","given":"Lisette","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":480784,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}
