Red-legged kittiwakes (Rissa brevirostris), a specialist predator, forage on fish and invertebrates from the mesopelagic zone, a part of the ocean with elevated methylmercury concentrations.  We used kittiwakes as bioindicators of MeHg concentrations in remote mesopelagic systems by examining how wintering distribution and habitat affected kittiwakes’ mercury exposure. In 2011-2017, we sampled winter-grown feathers on St. George Island, Alaska, from birds equipped with geolocation loggers. We measured total mercury (THg) and nitrogen stable in nape and head feathers grown during winter, respectively. THg concentration of kittiwake nape feathers averaged 4.61 ± 0.97 µg/g dry weight. Hierarchical cluster analysis was used to classify winter habitats with remotely sensed environmental variables along each bird’s track. Five habitat clusters were identified. Birds that spent more time in the Western Subarctic Gyre and those that wintered further south had elevated THg concentrations. In contrast to THg, trophic level varied annually but did not show strong spatial patterns. Our results documented spatial variability in THg exposure based on the oceanic wintering locations of red-legged kittiwakes and highlight their use as a bioindicator of MeHg across ocean basins.","language":"English","publisher":"ACS","doi":"10.1021/acs.est.9b03421","usgsCitation":"Fleishman, A., Orben, R., Kokubun, N., Will, A., Paredes, R., Ackerman, J., Takahashi, A., Kitaysky, A., and Shaffer, S.A., 2020, Wintering in the western subarctic pacific increases mercury contamination of Red-legged Kittiwakes: Environmental Science & Technology, v. 53, no. 22, p. 13398-13407, https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.9b03421.","productDescription":"10 p.","startPage":"13398","endPage":"13407","ipdsId":"IP-109002","costCenters":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":371619,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Alaska","otherGeospatial":"St. George Island","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -169.8211669921875,\n              56.52162451897936\n            ],\n            [\n              -169.43664550781247,\n              56.52162451897936\n            ],\n            [\n              -169.43664550781247,\n              56.654716773677215\n            ],\n            [\n              -169.8211669921875,\n              56.654716773677215\n            ],\n            [\n              -169.8211669921875,\n              56.52162451897936\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"53","issue":"22","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":1,"text":"Sacramento PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2019-11-06","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Fleishman, Abram S","contributorId":221840,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Fleishman","given":"Abram S","affiliations":[{"id":24620,"text":"San Jose State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":780480,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Orben, Rachael","contributorId":221841,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Orben","given":"Rachael","affiliations":[{"id":6680,"text":"Oregon State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":780481,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Kokubun, Nobuo","contributorId":221842,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kokubun","given":"Nobuo","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":40439,"text":"National Institute of Polar Research","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":780482,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Will, Alexis","contributorId":221843,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Will","given":"Alexis","affiliations":[{"id":40439,"text":"National Institute of Polar Research","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":780483,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Paredes, Rosana","contributorId":221844,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Paredes","given":"Rosana","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":6680,"text":"Oregon State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":780484,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Ackerman, Joshua T. 0000-0002-3074-8322 jackerman@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3074-8322","contributorId":147078,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ackerman","given":"Joshua T.","email":"jackerman@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":780479,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Takahashi, Akinori 0000-0002-9868-0408","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9868-0408","contributorId":221845,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Takahashi","given":"Akinori","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":40439,"text":"National Institute of Polar Research","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":780485,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Kitaysky, Alexander","contributorId":221846,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kitaysky","given":"Alexander","affiliations":[{"id":36971,"text":"University of Alaska","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":780486,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8},{"text":"Shaffer, Scott A. 0000-0002-7751-5059","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7751-5059","contributorId":202761,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Shaffer","given":"Scott","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":24620,"text":"San Jose State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":780487,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":9}]}}

One option is bear rehabilitation, the care and feeding of cubs or yearlings in a semi‐natural environment, followed by release. Unfortunately, the survival and movements of bears released from rehabilitation facilities are often poorly documented and the ultimate reasons for success or failure poorly understood. Our goal was to assess survival and post‐release conflict of orphaned bear cubs and yearlings following release from a rehabilitation facility, Appalachian Bear Rescue (ABR), in Townsend, Tennessee, USA, from 2015–2016. We predicted that rehabilitated bears would survive at similar rates, die from similar causes, and engage in similar conflict behavior to wild conspecifics. We equipped 42 black bear cubs and yearlings from ABR with global positioning system‐collars and released them in Great Smoky Mountains National Park or Cherokee National Forest, Tennessee and North Carolina, USA. Estimated annual survival using known‐fate methods for all released bears was 0.93 ± 0.06 [SE]). Survival for 13 bears released as cubs was 0.64 ± 0.14, whereas none of the bears released as yearlings died within 1 year after release (</span><i>n<span>&nbsp;</span></i><span> = 29). Survival of rehabilitated bears was similar to or higher than published rates for wild conspecifics. Three of 42 bears (7.1%) released from ABR engaged in conflict behavior up to 1 year following release, and those had spent time involved in conflict behavior with their mothers (e.g., approaching humans) prior to being orphaned. Despite not having the typical post‐natal experience with their mothers, the bears in our study appeared to behave and survive similarly to their wild conspecifics. Rehabilitation is effective for managing orphaned or injured bears. Best survival occurred for bears released as yearlings; however, managers can maximize cub survival through fall releases when plentiful wild foods are available.&nbsp;</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"The Wildlife Society","doi":"10.1002/jwmg.21783","usgsCitation":"Blair, C.D., Muller, L., Clark, J.D., and Stiver, W., 2020, Survival and conflict behavior of American black bears after rehabilitation: Journal of Wildlife Management, v. 84, no. 1, p. 75-84, https://doi.org/10.1002/jwmg.21783.","productDescription":"10 p.","startPage":"75","endPage":"84","ipdsId":"IP-104772","costCenters":[{"id":481,"text":"Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":458539,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/jwmg.21783","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":376124,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"North Carolina, Tennessee","otherGeospatial":"Cherokee National Forest, Great Smoky Mountains National Park","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -83.04290771484374,\n              35.572448615622804\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.03741455078125,\n              35.75988604933661\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.2269287109375,\n              35.78885488168885\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.858642578125,\n              35.6907639509368\n            ],\n            [\n              -84.1552734375,\n              35.55904339525896\n            ],\n            [\n              -84.4793701171875,\n              35.33977430038646\n            ],\n            [\n              -84.67987060546874,\n              35.09519259251624\n            ],\n            [\n              -84.42718505859375,\n              35.0367432201753\n            ],\n            [\n              -84.21844482421875,\n              35.20298910562885\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.8970947265625,\n              35.22991591449646\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.85589599609375,\n              35.411438052435464\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.56475830078124,\n              35.41367651903578\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.2928466796875,\n              35.43605776486772\n            ],\n            [\n              -83.04290771484374,\n              35.572448615622804\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"84","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2019-11-06","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Blair, Coy D","contributorId":228822,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Blair","given":"Coy","email":"","middleInitial":"D","affiliations":[{"id":12716,"text":"University of Tennessee","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":792176,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Muller, Lisa I","contributorId":228823,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Muller","given":"Lisa I","affiliations":[{"id":12716,"text":"University of Tennessee","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":792177,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Clark, Joseph D. 0000-0002-8547-8112 jclark1@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8547-8112","contributorId":2265,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Clark","given":"Joseph","email":"jclark1@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[{"id":365,"text":"Leetown Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":481,"text":"Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":792178,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Stiver, William H","contributorId":228824,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Stiver","given":"William H","affiliations":[{"id":36189,"text":"National Park Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":792179,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

The swarm’s proximity to the southern end of the San Andreas fault caused concern that a larger earthquake could be triggered. Within 1–2 days, different forecast models were used to evaluate the likelihood of a larger event with two agencies (the U.S. Geological Survey [USGS] and the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services) releasing probabilities and forecasts for larger earthquakes. Our research explores communication and news media efforts, as well as how people on a microblogging social media site (Twitter) responded to these forecasts. Our findings suggest that news media used a combination of information sources, basing their articles on what they learned from social media, as well as using information provided by government agencies. As the swarm slowed down, there is evidence of the continued interplay between news media and social media, with the USGS issuing revised probability reports and scientists from the USGS and other institutions participating in media interviews. In reporting on the swarm, news media often used language more generally than the scientists; terms such as probability, likelihood, chance, and possibility were used interchangeably. Knowledge of how news media used scientific information from the 2016 Bombay Beach forecasts can assist local, state, and federal agencies in developing effective communication strategies to respond to future earthquakes.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Seismological Society of America","doi":"10.1785/0220190082","usgsCitation":"McBride, S., Llenos, A.L., Page, M.T., and van der Elst, N., 2020, #EarthquakeAdvisory: Exploring discourse between government officials, news media and social media during the Bombay Beach 2016 Swarm: Seismological Research Letters, v. 91, no. 1, p. 438-451, https://doi.org/10.1785/0220190082.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"438","endPage":"451","ipdsId":"IP-104404","costCenters":[{"id":237,"text":"Earthquake Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":377873,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","county":"Imperial County","otherGeospatial":"Bombay Beach","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -115.740966796875,\n              33.330528249028085\n            ],\n            [\n              -115.63247680664062,\n              33.330528249028085\n            ],\n            [\n              -115.63247680664062,\n              33.37641235124676\n            ],\n            [\n              -115.740966796875,\n              33.37641235124676\n            ],\n            [\n              -115.740966796875,\n              33.330528249028085\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"91","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2019-11-06","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"McBride, Sara K. 0000-0002-8062-6542","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8062-6542","contributorId":206933,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"McBride","given":"Sara K.","affiliations":[{"id":657,"text":"Western Geographic Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":237,"text":"Earthquake Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":797308,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Llenos, Andrea L. 0000-0002-4088-6737 allenos@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4088-6737","contributorId":4455,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Llenos","given":"Andrea","email":"allenos@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":237,"text":"Earthquake Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":797309,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Page, Morgan T. 0000-0001-9321-2990 mpage@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9321-2990","contributorId":3762,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Page","given":"Morgan","email":"mpage@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[{"id":234,"text":"Earthquake Hazards Program","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":237,"text":"Earthquake Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":797310,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"van der Elst, Nicholas 0000-0002-3812-1153 nvanderelst@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3812-1153","contributorId":147858,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"van der Elst","given":"Nicholas","email":"nvanderelst@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":237,"text":"Earthquake Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":234,"text":"Earthquake Hazards Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":797311,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

Quantifying this risk across a variety of landscape settings is essential for successful adaptive management, particularly in light of a changing climate. In the Upper Colorado River Basin, there are nearly 25 000 km<sup>2</sup><span>&nbsp;</span>of rangelands with underlying soils derived from Mancos Shale, an erodible and saline geologic parent material. Salinity is a major concern within the Colorado River watershed, much of which is attributed to runoff and leaching from Mancos Shale deposits. In a 60-yr paired-watershed experiment in western Colorado, we used silt fences to measure differences in saline hillslope erosion, including both total sediment yield and concentrations of primary saline constituents (Na and Se), in watersheds that were either exposed to grazing or where livestock was excluded. After accounting for the strong effects of soil type, slope, and antecedent precipitation, we found that grazing increased sediment loss by ≈50% across our 8-yr time series (0.1–1.5 tn ha<sup>−1</sup>), consistent with levels reported at the watershed scale in early published work from studies at the same location. Eroded sediment Se levels were low and unaffected by grazing history, but Na concentrations were significantly reduced on grazed hillslopes, likely due to depletion of surface Na in soils exposed to chronic soil disturbance by livestock. Variable selection and path analysis identified that biological soil crust (BSC) cover, more than any other variable, explained the differences in sediment yields between grazed and ungrazed watersheds, partially through the enhancement of soil aggregate stability. Our results suggest that BSC cover should be granted heightened consideration in rangeland decision support tools (e.g., state-and-transition models) and that measures to reduce surface disturbance from livestock such as altering the timing or intensity of grazing may be effective for reducing downstream impacts.</p></div></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.rama.2019.08.007","usgsCitation":"Fick, S.E., Belnap, J., and Duniway, M.C., 2020, Grazing-induced changes to biological soil crust cover mediate hillslope erosion in a long-term exclosure experiment: Rangeland Ecology & Management, v. 73, no. 1, p. 61-72, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rama.2019.08.007.","productDescription":"12 p.","startPage":"61","endPage":"72","ipdsId":"IP-104884","costCenters":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":458543,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rama.2019.08.007","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":378005,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Colorado","otherGeospatial":"Upper Colorado River Basin","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -109.1162109375,\n              38.238180119798635\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.50146484374999,\n              38.238180119798635\n            ],\n            [\n              -106.50146484374999,\n              40.58058466412761\n            ],\n            [\n              -109.1162109375,\n              40.58058466412761\n            ],\n            [\n              -109.1162109375,\n              38.238180119798635\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"73","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Fick, Stephen E. 0000-0002-3548-6966","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3548-6966","contributorId":214319,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Fick","given":"Stephen","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":797565,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Belnap, Jayne 0000-0001-7471-2279 jayne_belnap@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7471-2279","contributorId":1332,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Belnap","given":"Jayne","email":"jayne_belnap@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":797566,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Duniway, Michael C. 0000-0002-9643-2785 mduniway@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9643-2785","contributorId":4212,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Duniway","given":"Michael","email":"mduniway@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":568,"text":"Southwest Biological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":797567,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

As a result, it is becoming increasingly important to determine how resource-dependent people are vulnerable to environmental hazards. This is particularly true in coastal Louisiana where the current era of rapid land loss has the potential to undermine oyster fisheries. Yet, little is known about how such environmental change might differentially impact resource-users and stakeholders. We examined social components of vulnerability to environmental hazards using indicators of susceptibility and adaptive capacity within the oyster fishery of Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana. Specifically, we used structured interviews to compare three resource-user roles: oyster fishers, oyster fishers/lease owners, and oyster lease owners only. Results indicated that oyster fishers/lease owners were highly dependent and thus susceptible to changes in the fishery due to high levels of occupational identity. The same people, however, were the most adaptable to change, which was reflected in their willingness to learn about new practices and evolve over time; higher susceptibility in this group was offset by an increased ability to adapt, cope, and respond to changes in the environment. In contrast to these findings, oyster fishers that did not own any portion of a lease or business in which they operated were bad at coping with change and frequently held negative or fatalistic views on financial planning. These attributes made them the most vulnerable to environmental hazards. Overall, the most vulnerable participants in the Terrebonne Parish oyster fishery were those with low to moderate levels of personal and financial buffers and trust, coupled with high occupational identity and a low motivation to change. Local policy actions that target these attributes are likely to be the best entry points to reducing vulnerability of stakeholders to hazards.","language":"English","publisher":"Resilience Alliance","doi":"10.5751/ES-11101-240337","usgsCitation":"Humphries, A.T., Josephs, L., LaPeyre, M.K., Hall, S.A., and Beech, R., 2020, Vulnerability of resource-users in Louisiana’s oyster fishery to environmental hazards: Ecology and Society, v. 24, no. 3, 37, 18 p., https://doi.org/10.5751/ES-11101-240337.","productDescription":"37, 18 p.","ipdsId":"IP-104132","costCenters":[{"id":198,"text":"Coop Res Unit Atlanta","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":458545,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5751/es-11101-240337","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":380177,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Louisianna","county":"Terrebonne Parish","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -90.94482421875,\n              30.259067203213018\n            ],\n            [\n              -91.62597656249999,\n              29.76437737516313\n            ],\n            [\n              -91.29638671875,\n              29.209713225868185\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.19226074218749,\n              29.05136777451729\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.9176025390625,\n              29.252855985973763\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.41748046874999,\n              29.921613319695577\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.94482421875,\n              30.259067203213018\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"24","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Humphries, A.

We assess spatial and\ntemporal variability of isotopic and geochemical compositions of vadose and phreatic\ngroundwater sampled from cave drip sites and production wells, respectively, to better\nunderstand the vulnerability of the freshwater lens on Guam to variability in hydroclimate. We\nindependently evaluate the existing conceptual model of the Northern Guam Lens Aquifer that is largely based on physical, as opposed to geochemical, observations. Sampling was conducted from 2008 to 2015, over which rainfall gradually increased. Major ion geochemistry and Sr isotope values of groundwater show varying influence from soil, limestone bedrock, and\nseawater. Geochemical modeling that can explain spatial variability in groundwater Na+ and\nMg2+ concentrations and Sr/Ca and 87Sr/86 Sr values indicates that groundwater compositions are dominantly controlled by mixing of freshwater with seawater and water-rock interaction.\nDifferences between amount-weighted annual average precipitation δ18 O values and groundwater\nδ18 O values indicate a recharge bias toward the wet season, consistent with other tropical\ncarbonate island aquifer settings. Intra- and inter-annual variations in Na+ concentrations and\nδ18 O values in groundwater reflect sensitivity of recharge to seasonal variations in rainfall\namount and changes in annual rainfall amounts. Our results indicate the influence of multiple\nmodes of recharge on groundwater compositions and spatial variability in the sensitivity of\ngroundwater to seawater mixing. This sensitivity of the freshwater lens points to the vulnerability\nof groundwater resources to changes in recharge associated with climate, land-use change, and\nincreases in population.","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.jhydrol.2018.10.049","usgsCitation":"Beal, L., Wong, C.I., Bautista, K.K., Jenson, J.W., Banner, J.L., Lander, M.A., Gingerich, S.B., Partin, J.W., Hardt, B., and van Oort, N., 2020, Isotopic and geochemical assessment of the sensitivity of groundwater resources of Guam, Mariana Islands, to intra- and inter-annual variations in hydroclimate: Journal of Hydrology, v. 568, p. 174-183, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2018.10.049.","productDescription":"10 p.","startPage":"174","endPage":"183","ipdsId":"IP-097993","costCenters":[{"id":525,"text":"Pacific Islands Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":380175,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"otherGeospatial":"Guam, Mariana Islands","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              143.50341796875,\n              12.683214911818666\n            ],\n            [\n              146.95312499999997,\n              12.683214911818666\n            ],\n            [\n              146.95312499999997,\n              16.088042220148818\n            ],\n            [\n              143.50341796875,\n              16.088042220148818\n            ],\n            [\n              143.50341796875,\n              12.683214911818666\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"568","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Beal, Lakin","contributorId":244457,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Beal","given":"Lakin","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":12430,"text":"University of Texas at Austin","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":803988,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Wong, Corinne I.","contributorId":218689,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Wong","given":"Corinne","email":"","middleInitial":"I.","affiliations":[{"id":39889,"text":"Environmental Science Institute, University of Texas at Austin","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":803989,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Bautista, Kaylyn K","contributorId":244458,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Bautista","given":"Kaylyn","email":"","middleInitial":"K","affiliations":[{"id":39888,"text":"University of Guam, Water and Environmental Research Institute of the Western Pacific","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":803990,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Jenson, John W.","contributorId":218688,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Jenson","given":"John","email":"","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":39888,"text":"University of Guam, Water and Environmental Research Institute of the Western Pacific","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":803991,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Banner, Jay L.","contributorId":218690,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Banner","given":"Jay","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":39890,"text":"University of Texas at Austin, Jackson School of Geosciences","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":803992,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Lander, Mark A","contributorId":244459,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Lander","given":"Mark","email":"","middleInitial":"A","affiliations":[{"id":39888,"text":"University of Guam, Water and Environmental Research Institute of the Western Pacific","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":803993,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Gingerich, Stephen B. 0000-0002-4381-0746 sbginger@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4381-0746","contributorId":1426,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Gingerich","given":"Stephen","email":"sbginger@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[{"id":525,"text":"Pacific Islands Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":518,"text":"Oregon Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":803994,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Partin, Judson W.","contributorId":203459,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Partin","given":"Judson","email":"","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":36624,"text":"Institute for Geophysics, Jackson School of Geosciences, University of Texas at Austin, J.

Vegetation in natural landscapes changes gradually and the ability of species to adaptively adjust their habitat use to long-term changes is largely unstudied. We studied nest patch and territory use over 28 yr in Orange-crowned Warblers (</span><i>Oreothlypis celata</i><span>) in a system that has undergone natural long-term changes in vegetation. Abundance of maple (</span><i>Acer grandidentatum</i><span>), its preferred nesting habitat, gradually declined from 1987 to 2015. We examined whether habitat use and its fitness consequences changed as the availability of preferred habitat decreased. We used resource selection function models to determine changes over time in the probability of using a nest patch given available patches, and the probability of using a territory given available territories. We estimated nest survival to evaluate changes over time in the fitness consequences of nest patch use. We also compared habitat use (nest patch and territory) and fitness (nest survival) between areas with naturally reduced abundance of maple and experimentally increased abundance of maple (fenced areas). Nest patch use depended on maple abundance and did not change drastically across 28 yr, even though the availability of preferred maple patches decreased over time. In contrast, nest survival tended to decrease over time. We did not see differences in nest patch use and nest survival between unfenced and fenced areas, unlike territory use, which increased with the abundance of maple in fenced areas and decreased in unfenced areas. Our study depicts one example of relatively unchanged habitat use in the face of decreased availability of preferred vegetation across years, with a resulting decrease in reproductive success. Investigating changes in habitat use and fitness consequences for animals exposed to long-term habitat change is necessary to understand adaptive behavioral responses.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","doi":"10.1093/auk/ukz061","usgsCitation":"Fierro-Calderón, K., and Martin, T.E., 2020, Does vegetation change over 28 years affect habitat use and reproductive success?: The Auk, v. 137, no. 1, p. 1-9, https://doi.org/10.1093/auk/ukz061.","productDescription":"ukz061, 9 p.","startPage":"1","endPage":"9","ipdsId":"IP-107208","costCenters":[{"id":399,"text":"Montana Cooperative Wildlife Research Unit","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":458549,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1093/auk/ukz061","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":393648,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Arizona","otherGeospatial":"Mogollon Rim","volume":"137","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2019-11-04","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Fierro-Calderón, Karolina","contributorId":270677,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Fierro-Calderón","given":"Karolina","affiliations":[{"id":48645,"text":"umt","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":829732,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Martin, Thomas E. 0000-0002-4028-4867 tmartin@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4028-4867","contributorId":1208,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Martin","given":"Thomas","email":"tmartin@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":829731,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

However, as an ecological process evolves, we need statistical models that can adapt to changing dynamics as new data are collected. We developed a model that combines an ecological diffusion equation and logistic growth to characterize colonization processes of a population that establishes long-term equilibrium over a heterogeneous environment. We also developed a homogenization strategy to statistically upscale the PDE for faster computation and adopted a hierarchical framework to accommodate multiple data sources collected at different spatial scales. We highlighted the advantages of using a logistic reaction component instead of a Malthusian component when population growth demonstrates asymptotic behavior. As a case study, we demonstrated that our model improves spatiotemporal abundance forecasts of sea otters in Glacier Bay, Alaska. Furthermore, we predicted spatially varying local equilibrium abundances as a result of environmentally driven diffusion and density-regulated growth.

This study investigated eight methods for detecting change points in the location (central tendency, seven methods) and scale (dispersion or spread, one method) of annual peak streamflows, using simulated data with and without change points, and peak-streamflow series from basins with known large additions of reservoir storage. Parametric methods tested, including a Bayesian one, did not perform well, even when transforming peak streamflows to approximate normality by using logarithms. Nonparametric methods other than the Pettitt test allow for more than one change point but have an unacceptable number of false positives. Based on the results of our methods comparisons, we used the Pettitt and the Mood tests to find change points in location and scale, respectively, in thousands of streamgage records in the conterminous United States. Change points in location (median) and scale are abundant, with the changes in median peak streamflow showing regional patterns, as well as a strong increased streamflow signal around 1970. The changes in scale of peak streamflows are dominated more by temporal than spatial patterns; more streamgages had decreases in scale in earlier decades than recent decades and more streamgages had increases in scale occurring in recent decades than earlier decades.","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.jhydrol.2019.124307","collaboration":"","usgsCitation":"Ryberg, K.R.,

Hydrologic models have the capacity to provide an estimate of the quantity of available water at ungauged locations (i.e., areas of the country where a U.S. Geological Survey [USGS] continuous record gauge is not installed) and provide the baseline flow information necessary to develop the linkages between water availability and characteristics of streamflow that support ecological communities (i.e., support the development of flow-ecology response models). This report inventories and then directly examines and compares a subset of hydrologic models used to estimate streamflow at a number of gauged basins across the SEUS and PR. This effort was designed to evaluate, quantify, and compare the magnitude of error and to investigate the potential causes of error associated with predicted streamflows from seven hydrologic models of varying complexity and calibration strategy. This was accomplished by computing and then comparing classical hydrologic model fit statistics (e.g., mean bias, coefficient of determination [R2], root mean squared error [RMSE], Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency [NSE]) and understanding the bias in the prediction in these and a subset of ecologically relevant flow metrics (ERFMs). Additionally, streamflow predictions from a larger regional-scale hydrologic model were compared to those of several fine-scale hydrologic models under a range of hypothetical climate change scenarios to determine the range of predicted streamflow responses to fixed climate perturbations. A pilot study was conducted using predicted streamflow and boosted regression trees to develop a set of predictive flow-ecology response models to assess the potential change in fish species richness in the North Carolina Piedmont under several scenarios of water availability change. This report is intended to provide a general assessment of all the tools and techniques available to support hydrologic modeling for flow-ecology science in the SEUS and PR. It is our hope that the approach used herein to understand differences in streamflow predictions among a subset of hydrologic models that have been applied in the SEUS for developing flow-ecology response models will provide water resource managers and stakeholders with an informed pathway for developing the capacity to link streamflow and ecological response and an understanding of some of the limitations associated with these type of modeling efforts.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service","usgsCitation":"Caldwell, P.V., Kennen, J.,

Here, we present the first study to measure coral community metabolism - calcification and photosynthesis - in a manipulative mesocosm experiment simulating a pulse sediment event. We exposed a mixed benthic community composed of 75% live carbonate rubble cover and 25% Montipora capitata coral cover to an approximately 275 mg cm−1 (sediment accumulation) acute pulse sediment loading event. No differences were found in net calcification or net photosynthesis between the control and treated mesocosms 48 h and 25 d following exposure to pulse sediment input. Results from this community experiment indicate the ability of Montipora capitata, a common reef coral, to persist under these acute sediment levels, demonstrating resistance to episodic sediment events.","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.ocecoaman.2019.105007","usgsCitation":"Bahr, K., Rodgers, K., Jokiel, P., Prouty, N.G., and Storlazzi, C.D., 2020, Pulse sediment event does not impact the metabolism of a mixed coral reef community: Ocean and Coastal Management, v. 184, 105007, 8 p., https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ocecoaman.2019.105007.","productDescription":"105007, 8 p.","ipdsId":"IP-098718","costCenters":[{"id":520,"text":"Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":458557,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ocecoaman.2019.105007","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":369321,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Hawaii","otherGeospatial":"Kāneʻohe Bay","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -157.8371429443359,\n              21.524627220545295\n            ],\n            [\n              -157.85362243652344,\n              21.50801854220741\n            ],\n            [\n              -157.84332275390625,\n              21.45498583936925\n            ],\n            [\n              -157.8179168701172,\n              21.44987323326115\n            ],\n            [\n              -157.8131103515625,\n              21.43964748332894\n            ],\n            [\n              -157.80418395996094,\n              21.422389905231366\n            ],\n            [\n              -157.77328491210938,\n              21.4121622297254\n            ],\n            [\n              -157.75955200195312,\n              21.429421016671633\n            ],\n            [\n              -157.75955200195312,\n              21.43900835015781\n            ],\n            [\n              -157.77465820312497,\n              21.44795595975583\n            ],\n            [\n              -157.77603149414062,\n              21.45945922264566\n            ],\n            [\n              -157.8371429443359,\n              21.524627220545295\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"184","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":14,"text":"Menlo Park PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Bahr, Keisha 0000-0002-8092-833X","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8092-833X","contributorId":220709,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Bahr","given":"Keisha","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":36402,"text":"University of Hawaii","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":775504,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Rodgers, Ku’ulei 0000-0002-8420-4208","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8420-4208","contributorId":220710,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Rodgers","given":"Ku’ulei","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":36402,"text":"University of Hawaii","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":775505,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Jokiel, Paul","contributorId":220711,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Jokiel","given":"Paul","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":36402,"text":"University of Hawaii","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":775506,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Prouty, Nancy G. 0000-0002-8922-0688 nprouty@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8922-0688","contributorId":3350,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Prouty","given":"Nancy","email":"nprouty@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[{"id":520,"text":"Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":775503,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Storlazzi, Curt D. 0000-0001-8057-4490 cstorlazzi@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8057-4490","contributorId":140584,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Storlazzi","given":"Curt","email":"cstorlazzi@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[{"id":186,"text":"Coastal and Marine Geology Program","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":520,"text":"Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":775507,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

Trait variation along geographic gradients provides a convenient heuristic for understanding what drives and maintains diversity.

Furthermore, a negative association between adult survival and breeding elevation and a positive association between nest survival and breeding elevation help explain both the downslope and reciprocal upslope seasonal migratory movements that characterize altitudinal migration in many birds.

However, present-day slope seafloor-morphology is complicated by shaping processes, which are not readily separable through pure bathymetric analysis. This study aims to explore the utility of bathymetric spectral decomposition in order to separate and characterize interleaved seafloor imprints of mass wasting, and for clarifying their role in the morphological evolution of the slope of the southeastern Mediterranean Sea passive continental margin. Controlled by margin-parallel transport of Nilotic sediments from the south, this margin exhibits an intertwined variety of mass transport features. Our spectral decomposition of digital bathymetry, integrated with interpretation of seismic reflection data, highlights the long-term shape of the slope and separates the observed mass transport elements into several genetic groups: 1) a series of ~25 km wide, now buried slide scars and lobes; 2) slope-parallel bathymetric scarps representing shallow faults; 3) slope-perpendicular, open slope slide scars; .4) bathymetric roughness representing open slope debris lobes; 5) slope confined gullies. Our results provide a multi-scale view of the interplay between sliding and erosive flows, and shallow faulting accommodating internal deformation and salt retreat, in the evolution of continental slope morphology. The base of the slope and focused disturbances are controlled by relatively deep-seated (~1 km) salt retreat, and therefore mimic the Messinian base of slope. The top of the open slope is delimited by faults, accommodating internal collapse of the margin. The now-buried slide scars appear to have been cohesive and slope-confined and have mostly nucleated along the upper slope faults. The collapse of sediments infilling accommodation spaces created by these buried slides nucleated the more recent open slope slides. The open slope slides transported ~10 km3 of sediments, depositing on the lower slope and basin edge an average sediments thickness of ~3 m. Such a thickness is a significant fraction of the sediments accumulated along the base of the studied continental slope within the last <50 ka. South to north changes in population and size distribution of the open-slope slide scars highlight their role in counterbalancing the northwards diminishing sediment supply and helping to maintain a long-term steady-state bathymetric profile. The latest phase slope-confined gullies were presumably created by channeling of bottom currents into recent slide-scar depressions, possibly establishing incipient canyon headword erosion.","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/bre.12420","usgsCitation":"Omri, G., Tibor, G., ten Brink, U., Hall, J.K., Groves-Gidney, G., Bar-Am, G., Hubscher, C., and Makovsky,

Pennisi (“Forest giants are the trees most at risk,” News, 6 September, p. 962) interprets presentations of three studies as suggesting that “for trees, size is not strength, and forest giants are disproportionately vulnerable.” However, this conclusion is not well supported.\nThe observation that lightning is a major cause of large-tree mortality on Barro Colorado Island (BCI) is best interpreted in context: when all sources of mortality are considered, small, not large BCI trees are most vulnerable to mortality (1). We have no a priori reason to assume that relative size vulnerabilities must reverse if mortality rates increase in the future.\nRather than reflecting universally high drought vulnerability of large trees, the remotely-sensed observation of increasing mortality with tree height in California’s Sierra Nevada (2) likely reflects changing species dominance with height. During the drought, sizes of trees suffering greatest mortality varied widely among species, a consequence of idiosyncratic host-tree selection by different bark beetle taxa (3). Pines were the only common species with mortality that increased with size, and pines also increased in relative dominance with canopy height (4, 5). More broadly, increasing tree mortality across western USA has affected trees of all sizes (6), and a recent multi-continent compilation showed no consistent size vulnerability to drought (3).\nBecause large trees typically are both the most highly valued and the most visible in aerial mortality surveys, the literature used to define the most damaging invasive forest pests (7) may be biased toward pests that kill large trees. Additionally, greater proportional mortality increase of large trees in the presence of invasive pests does not necessarily reflect greater absolute mortality rates relative to small trees (3, 8).\nFinally, Pennisi overlooked contrasting examples. For example, fire is increasing in many forests globally, and often disproportionately kills small trees (9). While large trees are certainly vulnerable to many ongoing environmental changes (10), they are not consistently the most vulnerable.","language":"English","publisher":"AAAS","doi":"10.1126/science.365.6457.962","usgsCitation":"Stephenson, N.L., and Das, A., 2020, Size matters, but not consistently: Science, v. 365, no. 6457, p. 962-963, https://doi.org/10.1126/science.365.6457.962.","productDescription":"2 p.","startPage":"962","endPage":"963","ipdsId":"IP-112348","costCenters":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":371622,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"365","issue":"6457","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":1,"text":"Sacramento PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Stephenson, Nathan L. 0000-0003-0208-7229 nstephenson@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0208-7229","contributorId":2836,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Stephenson","given":"Nathan","email":"nstephenson@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":780469,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Das, Adrian J. 0000-0002-3937-2616 adas@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3937-2616","contributorId":3842,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Das","given":"Adrian J.","email":"adas@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":780470,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

It discusses the ecological consequences of cessation of livestock grazing and present a case study from the Mojave Desert, United States of America. A primary effect of grazing is selective removal and ingestion of herbaceous plants, in contrast to removal of woody biomass from woody plants by browsing herbivores. The consequences of grazing–and resilience of a system to grazing disturbance–are highly context-dependent and vary across rangelands globally. Synergistic interactions between soil depth and plant structural properties, such as rooting depth and water-use efficiency, also influence plant access to water, and therefore moderate plant responses to drought and resilience to grazing. In some ecosystems, livestock grazing constitutes a novel or intensified disturbance. Application of the Intermediate Disturbance Hypothesis to grazing disturbance has been relatively infrequently tested relative to other ecological disturbances.</span></p>","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Disturbance ecology and biological diversity: Scale, context, and nature","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":15,"text":"Monograph"},"language":"English","publisher":"CRC Press","usgsCitation":"Veblen, K.E., Beever, E., and Pyke, D.A., 2020, Context-dependent effects of livestock grazing in deserts of western North America, chap. <i>of</i> Disturbance ecology and biological diversity: Scale, context, and nature, p. 89-113.","productDescription":"26 p.","startPage":"89","endPage":"113","ipdsId":"IP-105934","costCenters":[{"id":289,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosys Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":481,"text":"Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":379839,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":379838,"rank":1,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9780429095146"}],"country":"United States","state":"California, Nevada","otherGeospatial":"Mojave Desert","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -116.73522949218751,\n              34.00713506435885\n            ],\n            [\n              -114.093017578125,\n              34.00713506435885\n            ],\n            [\n              -114.093017578125,\n              35.40696093270201\n            ],\n            [\n              -116.73522949218751,\n              35.40696093270201\n            ],\n            [\n              -116.73522949218751,\n              34.00713506435885\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Veblen, Kari E.","contributorId":76872,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Veblen","given":"Kari","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":6682,"text":"Utah State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":802948,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Beever, Erik A. 0000-0002-9369-486X ebeever@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9369-486X","contributorId":147685,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Beever","given":"Erik A.","email":"ebeever@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":5072,"text":"Office of Communication and Publishing","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":481,"text":"Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":802949,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Pyke, David A. 0000-0002-4578-8335 david_a_pyke@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4578-8335","contributorId":3118,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Pyke","given":"David","email":"david_a_pyke@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true},{"id":289,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosys Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":802950,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Additionally, many alpine environments have faced repeated glacial episodes over the past two million years, fracturing these endemics into isolated populations. In this “glacial pulse” model of alpine diversification, cycles of allopatry and ecologically divergent glacial refugia play a role in generating biodiversity, including novel admixed (“fused”) lineages. We tested for patterns of glacial pulse lineage diversification in the Yosemite toad (<i>Anaxyrus </i>[<i>Bufo</i>] <i>canorus</i>), an alpine endemic tied to glacially influenced meadow environments. Using double‐digest RADseq on populations densely sampled from a portion of the species range, we identified nine distinct lineages with divergence times ranging from 18 to 724 thousand years ago (ka), coinciding with multiple Sierra Nevada glacial events. Three lineages have admixed origins, and demographic models suggest these fused lineages have persisted throughout past glacial cycles. Directionality indices supported the hypothesis that some lineages recolonized Yosemite from east of the ice sheet, whereas other lineages remained in western refugia. Finally, refugial niche reconstructions suggest that low‐ and high‐elevation lineages have convergently adapted to similar climatic niches. Our results suggest glacial cycles and refugia may be important crucibles of adaptive diversity across deep evolutionary time.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/evo.13868","usgsCitation":"Maier, P., Vandergast, A.G., Ostoja, S.M., Aguilar, A., and Bohonak, A.J., 2020, Pleistocene glacial cycles drove lineage diversification and fusion in the Yosemite toad (Anaxyrus canorus): Evolution, p. 2476-2496, https://doi.org/10.1111/evo.13868.","productDescription":"21 p.","startPage":"2476","endPage":"2496","ipdsId":"IP-110890","costCenters":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":487192,"rank":1,"type":{"id":41,"text":"Open Access External Repository Page"},"url":"https://figshare.com/articles/journal_contribution/Pleistocene_glacial_cycles_drove_lineage_diversification_and_fusion_in_the_Yosemite_toad_Anaxyrus_canorus_/10260362","text":"External Repository"},{"id":437207,"rank":0,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/P9KABYPU","text":"USGS data release","linkHelpText":"Reduced representation sequencing data for Yosemite Toad (Anaxyrus canorus) populations in the southern Sierra Nevada "},{"id":371626,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","otherGeospatial":"Yosemite National Park","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -119.76470947265625,\n              37.61640705577992\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.12750244140625,\n              37.61640705577992\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.12750244140625,\n              37.93769926732864\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.76470947265625,\n              37.93769926732864\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.76470947265625,\n              37.61640705577992\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":1,"text":"Sacramento PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2019-11-11","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Maier, Paul A. 0000-0003-0851-8827","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0851-8827","contributorId":221033,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Maier","given":"Paul A.","affiliations":[{"id":40313,"text":"Department of Biology, San Diego State","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":780458,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Vandergast, Amy G. 0000-0002-7835-6571 avandergast@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7835-6571","contributorId":3963,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Vandergast","given":"Amy","email":"avandergast@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":780457,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Ostoja, Steven M sostoja@usgs.gov","contributorId":192955,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Ostoja","given":"Steven","email":"sostoja@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":780459,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Aguilar, Andres","contributorId":195155,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Aguilar","given":"Andres","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":780460,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Bohonak, Andrew J.","contributorId":195156,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Bohonak","given":"Andrew","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":780461,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

The Canadian Wildlife Service conducts an annual breeding waterfowl survey that we used to explore the hypothesis that black duck carrying capacity is limited by wetlands available for breeding in Québec, Canada. We applied single‐visit, multi‐species occupancy models to the 1990–2015 population survey data to determine if there was evidence the black duck population was limited by breeding habitat. Using a dynamic (multi‐season) occupancy modeling approach, we estimated latent occupancy (occupancy accounting for imperfect detection) of black ducks and then used latent occupancy estimates to derive occupancy, colonization, and extirpation rates. We jointly modeled the occupancy dynamics of black ducks and other duck species in wetlands where both species were present. Throughout the duration of the survey, 44% of wetlands were never observed to be occupied by black ducks. Occupancy models showed wetland size was positively associated with occupancy at the first time step (initial occupancy) and colonization. All 2‐species models indicated initial black duck occupancy, persistence (continued occupancy), and colonization were positively associated with the presence of a second species. Colonization rate over the 26‐year period ranged from 7% to 27% across all models. Extirpation rates were similar and were constant through time within each model. Low occupancy rates, combined with approximately equal colonization and extirpation rates, suggest there are available wetlands for breeding black ducks in their core breeding area. If breeding habitats are not saturated, this suggests migration or wintering areas may be more limiting to black duck population abundance.&nbsp;</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wildlife Society","doi":"10.1002/jwmg.21775","usgsCitation":"Roberts, A.J., Royle, J.A., Padding, P.I., Devers, P.K., Lepage, C., and Bordage, D., 2020, Occupancy Patterns of Breeding American Black Ducks: Journal of Wildlife Management, v. 84, no. 1, p. 150-160, https://doi.org/10.1002/jwmg.21775.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"150","endPage":"160","ipdsId":"IP-109082","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":373864,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Canada","state":"Ontario, Quebec","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -56.9091796875,\n              51.34433866059924\n            ],\n            [\n              -57.041015625,\n              52.07950600379697\n            ],\n            [\n              -63.80859374999999,\n              52.07950600379697\n            ],\n            [\n              -63.28125,\n              52.802761415419674\n            ],\n            [\n              -64.3359375,\n              52.802761415419674\n            ],\n            [\n              -65.126953125,\n              51.944264879028765\n            ],\n            [\n              -67.32421875,\n              52.9883372533954\n            ],\n            [\n              -67.1044921875,\n              54.95238569063361\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.3974609375,\n              54.316523240258256\n            ],\n            [\n              -82.177734375,\n              45.30580259943578\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.8828125,\n              45.1510532655634\n            ],\n            [\n              -73.1689453125,\n              45.02695045318546\n            ],\n            [\n              -71.279296875,\n              45.1510532655634\n            ],\n            [\n              -69.43359375,\n              47.42808726171425\n            ],\n            [\n              -68.994140625,\n              47.42808726171425\n            ],\n            [\n              -68.90625,\n              47.15984001304432\n            ],\n            [\n              -61.52343749999999,\n              49.1242192485914\n            ],\n            [\n              -56.9091796875,\n              51.34433866059924\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"84","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2019-10-29","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Roberts, Anthony J.","contributorId":191131,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Roberts","given":"Anthony","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":786634,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Royle, J.

Recent laboratory and semi-field assessments of pesticide impacts on bees have focused on neonicotinoid insecticides. However, field studies evaluating influences of neonicotinoid seed treatments on native bee communities of North America are absent from the literature. On four Conservation Areas of Missouri, we sampled row-cropped (treated,&nbsp;</span><i>n</i><span> = 15) and reference (untreated,&nbsp;</span><i>n</i><span> = 9) agricultural fields, and their surrounding field margins for neonicotinoids in soil and non-target vegetation (i.e., native wildflowers). Wildflowers were further collected and screened for the presence of fungicides. Concurrently, we sampled native bees over three discrete time points throughout the agricultural growing season to assess potential impacts of seed treatment use on local bee populations over time. Neonicotinoids were detected in 87% to 100% of treated field soils and 22% to 56% of reference field soils. In adjacent field margin soils, quantifiable concentrations were measured near treated (53% to 93% detection) and untreated fields (33% to 56% detection). Fungicides were detected in &lt; 40% of wildflowers, whereas neonicotinoids were rarely detected in field margin vegetation (&lt; 7%). Neonicotinoid concentrations in margin soils were negatively associated with native bee richness (</span><i>β</i><span>&nbsp;= −0.21,&nbsp;</span><i>P</i><span> &lt; 0.05). Field margins with a combination of greater neonicotinoid concentrations in soil and fungicides in wildflowers also contained fewer wild bee species (</span><i>β</i><span>&nbsp;= −0.21,&nbsp;</span><i>P</i><span> &lt;  0.001). By comparison, bee abundance was positively influenced by the number of wildflower species in bloom with no apparent impact of pesticides. Results of this study indicate that neonicotinoids in soil are a potential route of exposure for pollinator communities, specifically ground-nesting species. Importantly, native bee richness in non-target field margins may be negatively affected by the use of neonicotinoid seed treatments in agroecosystems.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.agee.2019.106693","usgsCitation":"Main, A., Webb, E.B., Goyne, K., and Mengel, D., 2020, Reduced species richness of native bees in field margins associated with neonicotinoid concentrations in non-target soils: Agriculture, Ecosystems and Environment, v. 287, 106693, 10 p., https://doi.org/10.1016/j.agee.2019.106693.","productDescription":"106693, 10 p.","ipdsId":"IP-099433","costCenters":[{"id":198,"text":"Coop Res Unit Atlanta","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":458568,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"http://hdl.handle.net/10919/98743","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":395368,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Missouri","volume":"287","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Main, A.R.","contributorId":244517,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Main","given":"A.R.","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":6754,"text":"University of Missouri","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":832859,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Webb, Elisabeth B. 0000-0003-3851-6056 ewebb@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3851-6056","contributorId":3981,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Webb","given":"Elisabeth","email":"ewebb@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":832860,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Goyne, K.

By using dynamical system theory, we exclude periodic solution in the one-patch subsystem and demonstrate its global dynamics. Then we exhibit uniform persistence of the two-patch system and demonstrate uniqueness of the positive equilibrium, which is shown to be asymptotically stable when the diffusion rates are sufficiently large. By a thorough analysis on the asymptotic population abundance, we demonstrate necessary and sufficient conditions under which the asymmetric diffusion rates can lead to the result that total equilibrium population abundance in heterogeneous environments is larger than that in heterogeneous/homogeneous environments with no diffusion, which is not intuitive. Our result extends previous work to the situation of asymmetric diffusion and provides new insights.

We used a remotely controlled recapture collar to determine whether nine female and five male free-ranging wolves handled four to 17 times in NE Minnesota, US showed similar cycles. Hematocrit, hemoglobin, red blood cell count, mean corpuscular hemoglobin, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, and body mass increased from summer toward a winter peak and then decreased again toward summer. Several hematologic values differed considerably from those of captive wolves, and the ranges in free-ranging wolves were much greater than those of captives.</p></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Wildlife Disease Association","doi":"10.7589/2018-06-156","usgsCitation":"Mech, L.D., and Buhl, D.A., 2020, Seasonal cycles in hematology and

While biocrusts can be readily propagated under environmentally controlled conditions, rehabilitation in the field is complicated by environmental stresses which may be particularly acute in degraded, destabilized soils with harsh climatic conditions at the soil surface. In this study, we first present the results of a field trial at a severely degraded rangeland site examining the stabilizing effects of various soil amendments (polysaccharide glues and polyacrylamides) in combination with biocrust inoculum. We found that a psyllium compound was the only amendment to maintain effectiveness after 19 months, and the only treatment that maintained biocrust inoculum throughout the trial. In a subsequent short‐term experiment where plots were shaded and watered, we examined how biocrust inoculation rate (0, 20, and 40% initial cover) and the psyllium‐based amendment affected biocrust growth. After 4&nbsp;months, visible biocrust cover in inoculated plots was greater than in controls, but only chlorophyll<span>&nbsp;</span><i>a</i><span>&nbsp;</span>exhibited a dosage‐response to inoculum application rate, indicating preferential establishment of cyanobacteria. Psyllium did not affect biocrust development but did improve soil stability. Shade and watering buffered against temperature extremes (up to 15°C) and increased the duration of moist surface conditions necessary for biocrust growth by up to 30%, mimicking conditions more common in the fall and winter months. Our results suggest that inducing early successional biocrusts on a highly degraded site is possible with suitable microclimate conditions.</p></div></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/rec.13071","usgsCitation":"Fick, S.E., Day, N.K., Duniway, M.C., Hoy-Skubik, S.L., and Barger, N.N., 2020, Microsite enhancements for soil stabilization and rapid biocrust colonization in degraded drylands: Restoration Ecology, v. 28, no.
