We introduce a predictive framework for assessing the future extent of Arctic tundra and boreal biomes in northern Alaska. We use geo-referenced museum specimens to predict the velocity of distributional change into the next century and compare predicted tundra refugial areas with current land-use. The reliability of predicted distributions, including differences between fundamental and realized niches, for two groups of species is strengthened by fossils and genetic signatures of demographic shifts. Evolutionary responses to environmental change through the late Quaternary are generally consistent with past distribution models. Predicted future refugia overlap managed areas and indicate potential hotspots for tundra diversity. To effectively assess future refugia, variable responses among closely related species to climate change warrants careful consideration of both evolutionary and ecological histories.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Nature Publishing Group","doi":"10.1038/nclimate1926","usgsCitation":"Hope, A.G., Waltari, E., Payer, D.C., Cook, J.A., and Talbot, S.L., 2013, Future distribution of tundra refugia in northern Alaska: Nature Climate Change, v. 3, p. 931-938, https://doi.org/10.1038/nclimate1926.","productDescription":"8 p.","startPage":"931","endPage":"938","numberOfPages":"8","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-043843","costCenters":[{"id":117,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology WTEB","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":297110,"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        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -174.55078125,\n              66.5482634621744\n            ],\n            [\n              -174.55078125,\n              71.30079291637452\n            ],\n            [\n              -140.9765625,\n              71.30079291637452\n            ],\n            [\n              -140.9765625,\n              66.5482634621744\n            ],\n            [\n              -174.55078125,\n              66.5482634621744\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"3","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":12,"text":"Tacoma PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2013-07-07","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"54dd2ba4e4b08de9379b344c","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Hope, Andrew G. 0000-0003-3814-2891 ahope@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3814-2891","contributorId":4309,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hope","given":"Andrew","email":"ahope@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[{"id":117,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology WTEB","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":537884,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Waltari, Eric","contributorId":105946,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Waltari","given":"Eric","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":537965,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Payer, David C.","contributorId":7495,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Payer","given":"David","email":"","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":6987,"text":"U.S. Fish and Wildlife Sevice","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":537966,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Cook, Joseph A.","contributorId":8323,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Cook","given":"Joseph","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":7000,"text":"Department of Biology, University of New Mexico","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":537967,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Talbot, Sandra L. 0000-0002-3312-7214 stalbot@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3312-7214","contributorId":140512,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Talbot","given":"Sandra","email":"stalbot@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":117,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology WTEB","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":114,"text":"Alaska Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":537885,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

Early estimates of the geographic range of the squirrel are just 20,000 km<sup>2</sup> in area (Hall 1981, Zeiner et al. 1988‐ 1990), one of the smallest distributions among North American ground squirrel species (Hoyt 1972, P. Leitner – pers. obs.). The closest living relative of the Mohave ground squirrel (MGS) is the round‐tailed ground squirrel (<i>Xerospermophilus tereticaudus</i>). Mohave ground squirrels have a “shorter tail with distichous hairs and white undersurface”, but visual differences between the two species are subtle (Hafner and Yates 1983). Speciation likely occurred when portions of the parent population were isolated 4‐1.6 million years ago during the accelerated uplift of the Sierra Nevada, the Transverse Ranges and the Mojave River system, resulting in separation and isolation with MGS evolving in refugia (Hafner 1992, Bell et al. 2009). Subsequently, fluvial‐ lacustrine systems in the Mojave River basin provided vicariance features during the Pleistocene (Hafner 1992, Bell et al. 2009). Responding to previous climate change, the two species potentially migrated into their current ranges from southern refugia after the Last Glacial Maximum, eventually abutting each other along the Mojave River (Hafner and Yates 1983). The species are capable of hybridizing, but intercrosses appear to be rare, and sampling near the zones of potential hybridization remains limited (Bell and Matocq 2011). The only other similar sized squirrel occupying the range of MGS is the white‐tailed antelope ground squirrel (<i>Ammospermophilus leucurus</i>) whose range entirely overlaps MGS, but is easily distinguished by its bright white dorso‐lateral stripes (Best 1995)</p>","largerWorkType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"largerWorkTitle":"Habitat modeling, landscape genetics, and habitat connectivity

Advances in geospatial semantic technology offer data model alternatives for explicating concepts and articulating complex data queries and statements. To understand and enrich the vocabulary of topographic feature properties for semantic technology, English language spatial relation predicates were analyzed in three standard topographic feature glossaries. The analytical approach drew from disciplinary concepts in geography, linguistics, and information science. Five major classes of spatial relation predicates were identified from the analysis; representations for most of these are not widely available. The classes are: part-whole (which are commonly modeled throughout semantic and linked-data networks), geometric, processes, human intention, and spatial prepositions. These are commonly found in the &lsquo;real world&rsquo; and support the environmental science basis for digital topographical mapping. The spatial relation concepts are based on sets of relation terms presented in this chapter, though these lists are not prescriptive or exhaustive. The results of this study make explicit the concepts forming a broad set of spatial relation expressions, which in turn form the basis for expanding the range of possible queries for topographical data analysis and mapping.</p>","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Cognitive and Linguistic Aspects of Geographic Space","language":"English","publisher":"Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg","doi":"10.1007/978-3-642-34359-9_10","usgsCitation":"Varanka, D.E., and Caro, H.K., 2013, Spatial Relation Predicates in Topographic Feature Semantics, chap. <i>of</i> Cognitive and Linguistic Aspects of Geographic Space, p. 175-193, https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-34359-9_10.","productDescription":"19","startPage":"175","endPage":"193","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-020826","costCenters":[{"id":5074,"text":"Center for Geospatial Information Science (CEGIS)","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":309988,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"publishingServiceCenter":{"id":4,"text":"Rolla PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2013-01-30","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"56221fb5e4b06217fc47922b","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Varanka, Dalia E. 0000-0003-2857-9600 dvaranka@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2857-9600","contributorId":1296,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Varanka","given":"Dalia","email":"dvaranka@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":5074,"text":"Center for Geospatial Information Science (CEGIS)","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":404,"text":"NGTOC Rolla","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":540224,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Caro, Holly K.","contributorId":59548,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Caro","given":"Holly","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":577756,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

This approach allowed for estimation of a suite of vital rates, including survival and reproduction. These vital rates were used to parameterize a Bayesian population model to evaluate population trends and project potential population outcomes under different environmental scenarios.</li>\n<li>Survival of female polar bears of all age classes was significantly correlated with sea ice conditions; particularly with the timing of sea ice break-up in the spring and formation in the fall and the interaction of the two. This is consistent with previous findings linking body condition and survival of WH polar bears to environmental changes associated with climatic warming and supports the ecological dependence of polar bears on the availability of sea ice.</li>\n<li>Survival of male polar bears was not correlated with sea ice conditions. This was likely because a higher proportion of mortality for males was caused by humans rather than by natural factors. For example, approximately 73% of mortality for young male bears (i.e., 5-9 years old) was due to direct human-caused removals, largely because of sex selectivity in the subsistence harvest.</li>\n<li>The declining trend in size of the WH subpopulation over the period 1987-2004 was similar to a previous analysis (Regehr et al. 2007), suggesting consistency between the two demographic evaluations. Point estimates of abundance were somewhat lower using the updated statistical approach. It is important to recognize that the analyzed data were not collected in a manner that is optimal for estimating abundance and that the goal of the current analysis was to estimate vital rates and demographic trends.</li>\n<li>Estimates of population growth rate were also derived using a Bayesian population model based on estimated survival and reproductive rates from the multistate capture-recapture model. For the recent decade 2001-2011, the growth rate of the female segment of the population was 1.02 (95% CI = 0.98-1.06). Apparently stable to positive population growth for females may be due in large part to nonlinearity (i.e., short-term stability) in the long-term observed and forecasted trend toward earlier sea ice break-up in western Hudson Bay.</li>\n<li>The 2011 abundance estimate from this analysis was 806 bears with a 95% Bayesian credible interval of 653-984. This is lower than, but broadly consistent with, the abundance estimate of 1,030 (95% confidence interval = 745-1406) from a 2011 aerial survey (Stapleton et al. 2014). The capture-recapture and aerial survey approaches have different spatial and temporal coverage of the WH subpopulation and, consequently, the effective study population considered by each approach is different.</li>\n</ul>","largerWorkType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"largerWorkTitle":"Research Report","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":4,"text":"Other Government Series"},"language":"English","publisher":"Environment Canada","usgsCitation":"Lunn, N., Regher, E.V., Servanty, S., Converse, S.J., Richardson, E.S., and Stirling, I., 2013, Demography and population status of polar bears in western Hudson Bay, 50 p.","productDescription":"50 p.","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-058521","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":326582,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"publishingServiceCenter":{"id":10,"text":"Baltimore PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"57b43942e4b03bcb01039fa5","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Lunn, Nicholas J.","contributorId":78421,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lunn","given":"Nicholas J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":547162,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Regher, Eric V","contributorId":140838,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Regher","given":"Eric","email":"","middleInitial":"V","affiliations":[{"id":6661,"text":"US Fish and Wildlife Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":547165,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Servanty, Sabrina","contributorId":53296,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Servanty","given":"Sabrina","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":547164,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Converse, Sarah J. 0000-0002-3719-5441 sconverse@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3719-5441","contributorId":3513,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Converse","given":"Sarah","email":"sconverse@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":547163,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Richardson, Evan S.","contributorId":139901,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Richardson","given":"Evan","email":"","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[{"id":6962,"text":"Science and Technology Branch, Environment Canada","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":547166,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Stirling, Ian","contributorId":72079,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Stirling","given":"Ian","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":6962,"text":"Science and Technology Branch, Environment Canada","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":547167,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

This increase is coincident with increasing brucellosis seroprevalence in elk (Cervus elaphus), which is correlated with elk density. Vaccines are a seductive solution, but their use in wildlife systems remains limited by logistical, financial, and scientific constraints. Cattle vaccination is ongoing in the region.

The authors review recent ecological studies of brucellosis, with particular emphasis on the Greater Yellowstone Area, and highlight the management options and implications of this work, including the potential utility of habitat modifications and targeted hunts, as well as scavengers and predators.

The food-related factors influencing this movement have not been explored, but can be important for understanding the benefits and costs to black bear foraging behavior and the fundamental origins of bear conflicts. We tested whether the scarcity of wildland foods or the availability of urban foods can explain when black bears forage near houses, examined the extent to which male bears use urban areas in comparison to females, and identified the most important food items influencing bear movement into urban areas. We monitored 16 collared black bears in and around Missoula, Montana, during 2009 and 2010, while quantifying the rate of change in green vegetation and the availability of 5 native berry-producing species outside the urban area, the rate of change in green vegetation, and the availability of apples and garbage inside the urban area. We used parametric time-to-event models in which an event was a bear location collected within 100 m of a house. We also visited feeding sites located near houses and quantified food items bears had eaten. The probability of a bear being located near a house was 1.6 times higher for males, and increased during apple season and the urban green-up. Fruit trees accounted for most of the forage items at urban feeding sites (49%), whereas wildland foods composed &lt;10%. Black bears foraged on human foods near houses even when wildland foods were available, suggesting that the absence of wildland foods may not influence the probability of bears foraging near houses. Additionally, other attractants, in this case fruit trees, appear to be more important than the availability of garbage in influencing when bears forage near houses.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"American Society of Mammalogists","publisherLocation":"Lawrence, KS","doi":"10.1644/12-MAMM-A-002.1","usgsCitation":"Merkle, J., Robinson, H.S., Krausman, P.R., and Alaback, P.B., 2013, Food availability and foraging near human developments by black bears: Journal of Mammalogy, v. 94, no. 2, p. 378-385, https://doi.org/10.1644/12-MAMM-A-002.1.","productDescription":"8 p.","startPage":"378","endPage":"385","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-012056","costCenters":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":474053,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1644/12-mamm-a-002.1","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":325412,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Montana","city":"Missoula","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -114.576416015625,\n              46.44164232762498\n            ],\n            [\n              -114.576416015625,\n              47.08508535995384\n            ],\n            [\n              -113.2965087890625,\n              47.08508535995384\n            ],\n            [\n              -113.2965087890625,\n              46.44164232762498\n            ],\n            [\n              -114.576416015625,\n              46.44164232762498\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"94","issue":"2","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2013-04-16","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"578dfdb2e4b0f1bea0e0f85a","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Merkle, Jerod","contributorId":172972,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Merkle","given":"Jerod","affiliations":[{"id":35288,"text":"Wyoming Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit, University of Wyoming","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":642826,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Robinson, Hugh S.","contributorId":139243,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Robinson","given":"Hugh","email":"","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":642827,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Krausman, Paul R.","contributorId":31467,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Krausman","given":"Paul","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":642828,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Alaback, Paul B.","contributorId":172217,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Alaback","given":"Paul","email":"","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":642829,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

In 2009, efforts to restore marine&ndash;freshwater connectivity in the system culminated with removal of the lowermost dam, thus providing access to an additional 4.6&nbsp;km of lotic habitat. Because Sea Lampreys utilized accessible habitat prior to dam removal, they were chosen as a focal species with which to quantify recolonization. During spawning runs of 2008&ndash;2011 (before and after dam removal), individuals were marked with PIT tags and their activity was tracked with daily recapture surveys.

During the initial recolonization event (i.e., in 2010), Sea Lampreys took 6 d to move past the former dam site and 9 d to expand into the furthest upstream reaches. Conversely, during the 2011 spawning run, Sea Lampreys took only 3 d to penetrate into the upstream reaches, thus suggesting a potential positive feedback in which larval recruitment into the system may have attracted adult spawners via conspecific pheromone cues.

However, the disease transmission function is rarely known for free-living wildlife, leading to uncertainty regarding the impacts of diseases on host populations and effective control actions. We evaluated the influence of deer density, landscape features, and soil clay content on transmission of chronic wasting disease (CWD) in young (&lt;2-year-old) white-tailed deer (</span><i>Odocoileus virginianus</i><span>) in south-central Wisconsin, USA. We evaluated how frequency-dependent, density-dependent, and intermediate transmission models predicted CWD incidence rates in harvested yearling deer. An intermediate transmission model, incorporating both disease prevalence and density of infected deer, performed better than simple density- and frequency-dependent models. Our results indicate a combination of social structure, non-linear relationships between infectious contact and deer density, and distribution of disease among groups are important factors driving CWD infection in young deer. The landscape covariates % deciduous forest cover and forest edge density also were positively associated with infection rates, but soil clay content had no measurable influences on CWD transmission. Lack of strong density-dependent transmission rates indicates that controlling CWD by reducing deer density will be difficult. The consequences of non-linear disease transmission and aggregation of disease on cervid populations deserves further consideration.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1890/ES12-00141.1","usgsCitation":"Samuel, M.D., Richards, B.J., Storm, D.J., Rolley, R.E., Shelton, P., Keuler, N.S., and Timothy R.

However, few studies have quantitatively evaluated habitat quality in these areas. Our main objective was to evaluate the habitat quality of back and main channel areas for several species using habitat suitability index (HSI) models. To test the effectiveness of these models, we attempted to relate HSI scores and the variables measured for each model with measures of relative abundance for the model species. The mean belted kingfisher (Ceryle alcyon) HSI was greater on the main than back channel. However, the model failed to predict kingfisher abundance. The mean reproduction component of the great blue heron (Ardea herodias) HSI, total common muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus) HSI, winter cover component of the snapping turtle (Chelydra serpentina) HSI, and brood-rearing component of the wood duck (Aix sponsa) HSI were all greater on the back than main channel, and were positively related with the relative abundance of each species. We found that island back channels provide characteristics not found elsewhere on the Ohio River and warrant conservation as important riparian wildlife habitat. The effectiveness of using HSI models to predict species abundance on the river was mixed.

Conservation farming (CF) is precision farming, often combining minimum tillage, crop rotation and residue retention. In the present farmer-led field trials carried out in Zambia, the use of a low dosage biochar combined with CF minimum tillage was tested as a way to increase crop yields. Using CF minimum tillage allows the biochar to be applied to the area where most of the plant roots are present and mirrors the fertilizer application in CF practices. The CF practice used comprised manually hoe-dug planting 10-L sized basins, where 10%–12% of the land was tilled. Pilot trials were performed with maize cob biochar and wood biochar on five soils with variable physical/chemical characteristics. At a dosage as low as 4 tons/ha, both biochars had a strong positive effect on maize yields in the coarse white aeolian sand of Kaoma, West-Zambia, with yields of 444% ± 114% (</span><i>p</i><span> = 0.06) and 352% ± 139% (</span><i>p</i><span> = 0.1) of the fertilized reference plots for maize and wood biochar, respectively. Thus for sandy acidic soils, CF and biochar amendment can be a promising combination for increasing harvest yield. Moderate but non-significant effects on yields were observed for maize and wood biochar in a red sandy clay loam ultisol east of Lusaka, central Zambia (University of Zambia, UNZA, site) with growth of 142% ± 42% (</span><i>p</i><span> &gt; 0.2) and 131% ± 62% (</span><i>p</i><span> &gt; 0.2) of fertilized reference plots, respectively. For three other soils (acidic and neutral clay loams and silty clay with variable cation exchange capacity, CEC), no significant effects on maize yields were observed (</span><i>p</i><span> &gt; 0.2). In laboratory trials, 5% of the two biochars were added to the soil samples in order to study the effect of the biochar on physical and chemical soil characteristics. The large increase in crop yield in Kaoma soil was tentatively explained by a combination of an increased base saturation (from &lt;50% to 60%–100%) and cation exchange capacity (CEC; from 2–3 to 5–9 cmol/kg) and increased plant-available water (from 17% to 21%) as well as water vapor uptake (70 mg/g on maize cob biochar at 50% relative humidity).</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"MDPI","doi":"10.3390/agronomy3020256","usgsCitation":"Cornelissen, G., Martinsen, V., Shitumbanuma, V., Alling, V., Breedveld, G.D., Rutherford, D.W., Sparrevik, M., Hale, S.E., Obia, A., and Mulder, J., 2013, Biochar effect on maize yield and soil characteristics in five conservation farming sites in Zambia: Agronomy Journal, v. 3, no. 2, p. 256-274, https://doi.org/10.3390/agronomy3020256.","productDescription":"19 p.","startPage":"256","endPage":"274","ipdsId":"IP-042187","costCenters":[{"id":5044,"text":"National Research Program - Central Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":474024,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.3390/agronomy3020256","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":328332,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Zambia","volume":"3","issue":"2","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":2,"text":"Denver PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2013-04-11","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"57d13a2fe4b0571647cf8d24","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Cornelissen, Gerard","contributorId":174426,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Cornelissen","given":"Gerard","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":27452,"text":"Norwegian Geotechnical Institute","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":648276,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Martinsen, Vegard","contributorId":174427,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Martinsen","given":"Vegard","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":27453,"text":"Norwegian Univ of Life Sciences","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":648268,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Shitumbanuma, Victor","contributorId":174433,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Shitumbanuma","given":"Victor","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":648269,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Alling, Vanja","contributorId":174434,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Alling","given":"Vanja","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":648270,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Breedveld, Gijs D.","contributorId":174435,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Breedveld","given":"Gijs","email":"","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":648271,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Rutherford, David W. dwruther@usgs.gov","contributorId":1325,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rutherford","given":"David","email":"dwruther@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[],"preferred":true,"id":648255,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Sparrevik, Magnus","contributorId":174436,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Sparrevik","given":"Magnus","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":648272,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Hale, Sarah E.","contributorId":174437,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hale","given":"Sarah","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":648273,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8},{"text":"Obia, Alfred","contributorId":174438,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Obia","given":"Alfred","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":648274,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":9},{"text":"Mulder, Jan","contributorId":174439,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Mulder","given":"Jan","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":648275,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":10}]}}

We analyzed 364 eligible (≥100 ha) Maine lakes during late summer (Aug–early Sep) 2000–2011. The red band was strongly correlated with natural log-transformed Secchi depth (SD), and the addition of ancillary lake and watershed variables explained some variability in ln(SD) (R</span><sup>2</sup><span>&nbsp;= 0.68–0.85; 9 models). Weak spectral resolution and variable lake conditions limited accurate lake monitoring to relatively productive periods in late summer, as indicated by inconsistent, sometimes weak regressions during June and July when lakes were clearer and less stable (R</span><sup>2</sup><span>&nbsp;= 0.19–0.74; 8 models). Additionally, SD estimates derived from 2 sets of concurrent MODIS and Landsat imagery generally did not agree unless Landsat imagery (30&nbsp;m) was resampled to 250&nbsp;m, likely owing to various factors related to scale. Average MODIS estimates exceeded those of Landsat by 0.35 and 0.49&nbsp;m on the 2 dates. Overall, MODIS 250&nbsp;m imagery are potentially useful for remote lake monitoring during productive periods when Landsat data are unavailable; however, analyses must occur when algal communities are stable and well-developed, are biased toward large lakes, may overestimate SD, and accuracy may be unreliable without non-spectral lake predictors.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Taylor & Francis","doi":"10.1080/10402381.2013.778926","usgsCitation":"Ian M.

These include fisheries in freshwater rivers, lakes and reservoirs. Although these GIS applications have increased rapidly since the late 1980s, this area of fish production receives less attention than either aquaculture or marine fisheries. This is probably because inland fisheries are often practised in remote areas, at a semi-subsistence level, or are recreational in many developed countries, and data on most aspects of the fisheries are scattered, fragmented and frequently unsuited for use as inputs to GIS. The GIS-based inland fisheries work has concentrated on mapping the distribution and abundance of fish species and mapping and modelling habitats in rivers, reservoirs and lakes, and relating the two. Much of the material included in the chapter on inland fisheries comes from either Fisher and Rahel (2004) or from the series of symposium proceedings published by the Fishery-Aquatic GIS Research Group (Nishida and Caton, 2010).</p>","largerWorkType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"largerWorkTitle":"Advances in geographic information systems and remote sensing for fisheries and aquaculture: Summary version (FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Technical Paper 552)","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":3,"text":"Organization Series"},"language":"English","publisher":"Food and Agriculture Organizaiton of the United Nations","publisherLocation":"Rome, Italy","issn":"2070-7010","isbn":"9789251073919","usgsCitation":"Fisher, W., 2013, Current status, issues and applications of GIS to inland fisheries, chap. 9 <i>of</i> Advances in geographic information systems and remote sensing for fisheries and aquaculture: Summary version (FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Technical Paper 552), p. 59-64.","productDescription":"6 p.","startPage":"59","endPage":"64","ipdsId":"IP-033397","costCenters":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":357017,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":357016,"rank":1,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://www.fao.org/publications/card/en/c/50c7a0ee-1879-5306-94bb-e602f382fee8"}],"publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5b98af08e4b0702d0e843f59","contributors":{"editors":[{"text":"Meaden, Geoffery J.","contributorId":50763,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Meaden","given":"Geoffery","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":25526,"text":"FAO","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":744022,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Aguilar-Manjarrez, Jose","contributorId":115575,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Aguilar-Manjarrez","given":"Jose","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":25526,"text":"FAO","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":744023,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":2}],"authors":[{"text":"Fisher, William wfisher@usgs.gov","contributorId":206607,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Fisher","given":"William","email":"wfisher@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":741272,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

While there is agreement between models and data, details of regional climate differ. Uncertainties in prescribed forcings and in proxy data limit the utility of the interval to understand the dynamics of a warmer than present climate or evaluate models. This uncertainty comes, in part, from the reconstruction of a </span><i>time slab</i><span> rather than a </span><i>time slice</i><span>, where forcings required by climate models can be more adequately constrained. Here, we describe the rationale and approach for identifying a time slice(s) for Pliocene environmental reconstruction. A time slice centred on 3.205 Ma BP (3.204–3.207 Ma BP) has been identified as a priority for investigation. It is a warm interval characterized by a negative benthic oxygen isotope excursion (0.21–0.23‰) centred on marine isotope stage KM5c (KM5.3). It occurred during a period of orbital forcing that was very similar to present day. Climate model simulations indicate that proxy temperature estimates are unlikely to be significantly affected by orbital forcing for at least a precession cycle centred on the time slice, with the North Atlantic potentially being an important exception.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"The Royal Society Publishing","doi":"10.1098/rsta.2012.0515","usgsCitation":"Haywood, A.M.,

The conjunctive use now includes many facets of water rights, water use, and emerging demands between the states of New Mexico and Texas, the United States and Mexico, and various water-supply agencies. The analysis of the complex relations between irrigation and streamflow supplyand-demand components and the effects of surface-water and groundwater use requires an integrated hydrologic model to track all of the use and movement of water. MODFLOW with the Farm Process (MFFMP) provides the integrated approach needed to assess the stream-aquifer interactions that are dynamically affected by irrigation demands on streamflow allotments that are supplemented with groundwater pumpage. As a first step to the ongoing full implementation of MF-FMP by the USGS, the existing model (LRG_2007) was modified to include some FMP features, demonstrating the ability to simulate the existing streamflow-diversion relations known as the D2 and D3 curves, departure of downstream deliveries from these curves during low allocation years and with increasing efficiency upstream, and the dynamic relation between surface-water conveyance and estimates of pumpage and recharge. This new MF-FMP modeling framework can now internally analyze complex relations within the Lower Rio Grande Hydrologic Model (LRGHM_2011) that previous techniques had limited ability to assess.</p>","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"MODFLOW and more 2013--Translating science into practice","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":12,"text":"Conference publication"},"language":"English","publisher":"Colorado School of Mines, Integrated Groundwater Modeling Center","publisherLocation":"Golden, CO","usgsCitation":"Hanson, R.T., Schmid, W., Knight, J.E., and Maddock, T., 2013, Integrated hydrologic modeling of a transboundary aquifer system —Lower Rio Grande, <i>in</i> MODFLOW and more 2013--Translating science into practice, p. 57-61.","productDescription":"5 p.","startPage":"57","endPage":"61","ipdsId":"IP-042752","costCenters":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":333539,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"publishingServiceCenter":{"id":1,"text":"Sacramento PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"58833023e4b0d0023163779a","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Hanson, Randall T. 0000-0002-9819-7141 rthanson@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9819-7141","contributorId":801,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hanson","given":"Randall","email":"rthanson@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":654190,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Schmid, Wolfgang","contributorId":140408,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Schmid","given":"Wolfgang","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":6624,"text":"University of Arizona, Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":654192,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Knight, Jacob E. 0000-0003-0271-9011 jknight@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0271-9011","contributorId":5143,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Knight","given":"Jacob","email":"jknight@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":128,"text":"Arizona Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":654189,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Maddock, Thomas III","contributorId":32983,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Maddock","given":"Thomas","suffix":"III","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":654191,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":12}]}}

One of the principal causes of the increased risk of post-wildﬁre hydrologically driven hazards is reduced in ﬁltration rates (e.g. Scott and van Wyk, 1990; Cerdà, 1998; Robichaud, 2000; Martin and Moody, 2001). Beyond the reduction in peak inﬁltration rate, there is mounting evidence that the fundamental physics of inﬁltration in wild ﬁre-affected soils is different from unburned soils (e.g. Imeson <i>et al.</i>, 1992; Moody <i>et al.</i>, 2009; Moody and Ebel, 2012).</p><p>Understanding post-wildﬁre hydrology is critical given the increasing wildﬁre incidence in the western USA (Westerling <i>et al.</i>, 2006) and elsewhere in the world (Kasischke and Turetsky, 2006; Holz and Veblen, 2011; Pausas and Fernández-Muñoz, 2012).

It is essential that the ﬁre community have conceptual models, physical equations and tools (i.e. numerical models) to predict inﬁltration and thus excess rainfall (after Horton, 1933), which can provide estimates of peak discharge, start of runoff, time to peak and total runoff for hydroclimatic scenarios after wildﬁres.
