This effort compliments a similar effort in the nearby mouth of Cottonwood Canyon in 2015‒2016. Surveys were performed to locate tortoises, tortoise burrows, and tortoise remains at the eastern end of the CVMSHCP area north of the Orocopia Mountains and south of Interstate 10 in Riverside County, California. Although the area is considered Critical Habitat for the recovery of tortoise populations, it was heavily impacted by military training activities in the early 1940s and continues to be impacted by off-highway vehicle use. Data were collected from all live and dead tortoise specimens encountered. Only 22 live tortoises were found during transects covering approximately 21 km<sup>2</sup> of habitat surveyed. The sex ratio of live adult tortoises was strongly biased toward males and the sex ratio of recently (4‒5 years) dead carcasses during the long drought was strongly biased toward females. High female mortality may have resulted from the interaction of drought (including increased predation) and the reproductive strategy of tortoises. We located only one new live tortoise in the drought year of 2018 when there was no germination of winter annual food plants. A subsample of nine tortoises was outfitted with radio transmitters, and females (n = 4) were X-radiographed at approximately 10-day intervals from April–July. Mean clutch size was about 4 eggs as is typical for tortoises in this region. Additional tortoises were located opportunistically in and around the Santa Rosa Mountains (located in the southern end of the CVMSHCP area), and these tortoises were also marked for future identification. Blood samples were taken from adult tortoises and scute clips were taken from a subset of juveniles for ongoing studies to determine genetic diversity and relationships of desert tortoises within the CVMSHCP/NCCP area and beyond. The low tortoise density and high adult female mortality observed by us and others in the area may compromise the long-term viability of the population, especially given published predictions of the negative effects of future droughts on tortoises in the region.</p>","largerWorkType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"largerWorkTitle":"2019 Annual Report: Coachella Valley multiple species conservation plan/natural community conservation plan","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":4,"text":"Other Government Series"},"language":"English","publisher":"Coachella Valley Conservation Commission","usgsCitation":"Lovich, J.E., Puffer, S., and Cummings, K.L., 2019, Establishing an Agassiz’s Desert Tortoise monitoring program within the Coachella Valley multiple species habitat conservation plan area: Final report to the Coachella Valley conservation commission on work performed near the Orocopia Mountains, chap.

First, we built a data-base of metadata for 965 individual stations from 96 unique geographical locations that included the location, geomorphic setting, and wetland type for each SET-MH station. The dominant estuarine settings included in the analyses were back-barrier lagoonal marshes and emergent marshes along embayments and tidal tributaries. We then calculated prestorm elevation trends to compare to poststorm elevation measurements to determine the storm impact on each station trend. We hypothesized that the effect of Hurricane Sandy on marsh elevation trends would differ by position relative to landfall (right or left) and distance from landfall in southern New Jersey, as both of these variables influence the presence or absence of storm surge as a result of the physical characteristics of tropical cyclones (in other words, strongest winds typically occur to the right of landfall). Storm surge was spatially less extensive and less deep (~1 meter [m]) in marshes located to the left (in other words, south) of landfall compared to marshes located to the right (in other words, north) of landfall where storm surge covered a larger area and was deeper (3–4 m). About 63 percent of 223 eligible stations had a poststorm trend that was similar to the prestorm trend (in other words, less than ±5 millimeters [mm]), indicating little storm impact on elevation trends at those sites. The remaining 37 percent of stations exhibited significant poststorm deviations from the prestorm trend (in other words, greater than ±5 mm). Of these, stations located to the left of landfall had a significant and greater deviation in their elevation trend, and the deviation was more likely to be positive (elevation gain) compared to marshes located to the right of landfall, which had a significant deviation in their elevation trend that was more likely to be negative (elevation loss). This finding is directly related to storm surge impacts on marsh sediment deposition, where deep storm surge (3–4 m) results in sediment deposition in habitats inland of coastal marshes but less so in the marshes themselves. Substrate compaction by the storm surge over-burden may have contributed to elevation loss, but this was not measured because sufficient marker horizon data were not available for analysis. In contrast, to the left of landfall the wind-driven flooding of sediment laden water pushed into the headwaters of rivers and small bays with an ~1 m surge, and resulted in more prevalent sediment deposition on the marsh surfaces and elevation gain. In general, the findings support previous research showing that the physical characteristics of the storm (for example, wind speed, storm surge height, impact angle of landfall) combined with the local wetland conditions (for example, marsh productivity, groundwater level, tide height) are important factors determining a storm’s impact on soil elevation, and that the soil elevation response can vary widely among multiple wetland sites impacted by the same storm and among different storms for the same wetland site.</p><p>The final objective of this project was to create a framework using metadata from the opportunistic network of SET-MH stations that could be used to develop a strategic monitoring network designed to address specific climate change impacts and related phenomena identified by land managers and stakeholders. We evaluated the spatial distribution and density of SET-MH stations in relation to geographic coverage, marsh setting, availability of public land, and historical storm surge footprints and hurricane return intervals in order to identify gaps in our understanding of risk and our ability to assess it. Analyses revealed that the general geographic coverage of SET-MH stations is limited given the low percentage of marsh patches with stations, low density of stations, the clumped distribution of stations, and the often limited and uneven distribution of stations in wetlands with a high historical frequency of hurricane strikes and storm surge impacts. These findings can be used by managers and planners to inform the creation of a strategic monitoring network that can, in turn, inform management and adaptation plans for coastal resources in the region. Final plan designs will need to consider financial and infrastructural support required for station maintenance, as well as data collection and management over the long term.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/ofr20181142","usgsCitation":"Cahoon, D.R., Olker, J.H., Yeates, A.G., Guntenspergen, G.R., Grace, J.B., Adamowicz, S.C., Anisfeld, S., Baldwin, A.H., Barrett, N., Beckett, L., Benzecry, A., Blum, L.K., Burdick, D.M., Crouch, W., Ekberg, M.C., Fernald, S., Grimes, K.W., Grzyb, J., Hartig, E.K., Kreeger, D.A., Larson, M., Lerberg, S., Lynch, J.C., Maher, N., Maxwell-Doyle, M., Mitchell, L.R., Mora, J., O’Neill, V., Padeletti, A., Prosser, D., Quirk, T., Raposa, K.B., Reay, W.G., Siok, D., Snow, C., Starke, A., Staver, L., Stevenson, J.C., and Turner, V., 2019, Hurricane Sandy impacts on coastal wetland resilience: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 2018–1142, 117 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr20181142.","productDescription":"xii, 117 p.","ipdsId":"IP-089853","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":362852,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2018/1142/ofr20181142.pdf","text":"Report","size":"30.1 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"OFR 2018-1142"},{"id":362851,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2018/1142/coverthb1.jpg"}],"country":"United States","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -93.251953125,\n              17.811456088564483\n            ],\n            [\n              -70.9716796875,\n              17.811456088564483\n            ],\n            [\n              -70.9716796875,\n              41.07935114946899\n            ],\n            [\n              -93.251953125,\n              41.07935114946899\n            ],\n            [\n              -93.251953125,\n              17.811456088564483\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","contact":"<p>Director, <a href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/eesc\" data-mce-href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/eesc\">Eastern Ecological Science Center</a><br>U.S. Geological Survey<br>12311 Beech Forest Road<br>Laurel, MD 20708</p>","tableOfContents":"<ul><li>Acknowledgments</li><li>Abstract</li><li>Introduction</li><li>Inventory and Distribution of SET-MH Stations Along the Atlantic Coast</li><li>Data Formatting and Analyses</li><li>Location and Distribution of Stations</li><li>Metadata Summary</li><li>Hurricane Sandy Effects on Coastal Marsh Elevation Change</li><li>Introduction</li><li>Methods</li><li>Results</li><li>Discussion</li><li>Factors to Consider in Development of a Strategic Monitoring Framework</li><li>Methods</li><li>Incorporating Risk—Data Sources and Application</li><li>Results</li><li>Discussion</li><li>Conclusions</li><li>References Cited</li><li>Glossary</li><li>Appendix 1.

Painted Buntings were uniquely color-banded from 1999 through 2003 at 40 study sites that were paired at 20 locations from southeastern North Carolina south to northeastern Florida. Survival analysis used capture histories through 2005 for 994 birds banded as hatch-year and 2420 birds banded as post-hatch-year (adults). Annual estimates of apparent survival (1999-2004) averaged 0.71 and 0.66 for adult males and females, respectively, and 0.33 for hatch-year birds. We did not find evidence that survival differed in relation to latitude or extent of human development near study sites, although estimates for adult females were higher for birds banded on sheltered islands compared to the mainland. Expected time in the population, based on estimated survival, was 3.9 and 3.4 years for adult males and females, respectively. The oldest observed birds were a 14-year old male observed in June 2016 at Harris Neck NWR, Georgia, the site at which he had been banded in July 2003 as a second-year bird, and a 13-year old male seen at Ft. George Island, Florida in June 2016, 2 km across a tidal estuary from the site where the bird was banded in August 2003 as hatch-year. The males were sighted at these two sites in 9 and 11 different years, respectively. Overall, 78% (males) and 81% (females) of re-sightings and re-captures of birds banded as adults occurred at the same study site where individuals were banded, compared to 59% (males) and 60% (females) of birds banded as hatch-year. Known mortalities of banded buntings included nine birds trapped for the caged-bird trade. This study shows the potential for high survival and longevity in the eastern coastal population of the Painted Bunting, and given evidence of high site fidelity in the breeding range, the vulnerability of the population to human development along the southeastern U.S. coast as well as to illegal trapping.","language":"English","publisher":"Wilson Ornithological Society","doi":"10.1676/18-56","usgsCitation":"Sykes, P.W., Freeman, M., Sykes, J.J., Seginak, J.T., M.

One of the most important factors influencing the long-term success and sustainability of future development is a comprehensive understanding of the region’s geologic regime, geotechnical conditions, natural resources, and environmental constraints.  To obtain this understanding, the Ministry of Municipality and Environment (MME) of the State of Qatar has undertaken the Qatar Geological Mapping Project (QGMP). The project was envisioned with the strategic foresight to compile and utilize existing and legacy subsurface data collected as part of its massive infrastructure and development projects as the foundation for developing modern scientific resources including geologic maps, digital thematic maps, and a 3-dimensional geological model of the Doha metropolitan area. Recently, the MME, in consultation with Gannett Fleming, Inc. (GF) and the United States Geological Survey (USGS) concluded the data collection and analysis phase (Phase I) of the two-phase QGMP. Phase I included: the development of a comprehensive geotechnical relational database populated with data digitized from more than 13,000 subsurface data logs; a detailed data quality analysis and distribution assessment; an extensive gap analysis and needs assessment; and careful design of the geologic mapping and subsurface investigation programs for the next phase of the project.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Geotechnical Special Publication","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":12,"text":"Conference publication"},"conferenceTitle":"Eighth International Conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering","conferenceDate":"March 24-27, 2019","conferenceLocation":"Philadelphia, Pennsylvania","language":"English","publisher":"American Society of Civil Engineers","doi":"10.1061/9780784482162.002","usgsCitation":"Krupansky, J.T., Knight, M.A., Orndorff, R., Al-Akhras, K.M., Mouradian, A.G., and Saleh, A.F., 2019, The Value of Data – The Qatar Geologic Mapping Project, <i>in</i> Geotechnical Special Publication, v. 314, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, March 24-27, 2019, p. 12-23, https://doi.org/10.1061/9780784482162.002.","productDescription":"12 p.","startPage":"12","endPage":"23","ipdsId":"IP-101378","costCenters":[{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":362877,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Qatar","volume":"314","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2019-03-21","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Krupansky, Joseph T.","contributorId":214600,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Krupansky","given":"Joseph","email":"","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[{"id":39084,"text":"Gannett Fleming, Inc","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":760354,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Knight, Michael A.","contributorId":214601,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Knight","given":"Michael","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":39084,"text":"Gannett Fleming, Inc","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":760355,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Orndorff, Randall 0000-0002-8956-5803","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8956-5803","contributorId":214599,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Orndorff","given":"Randall","affiliations":[{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":760353,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Al-Akhras, Khaled M.","contributorId":214602,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Al-Akhras","given":"Khaled","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":39085,"text":"Qatar Ministry of Municipality and Environment","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":760356,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Mouradian, Ara G.","contributorId":214603,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Mouradian","given":"Ara","email":"","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[{"id":39084,"text":"Gannett Fleming, Inc","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":760357,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Saleh, Ali F.","contributorId":214604,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Saleh","given":"Ali","email":"","middleInitial":"F.","affiliations":[{"id":39085,"text":"Qatar Ministry of Municipality and Environment","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":760358,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

Quantifying hydrologic alteration in the Mississippi Alluvial Plain is particularly difficult because of the lack of current reference, or even relatively undisturbed, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) streamflow-gaging stations. Water withdrawals for agriculture in the form of weirs, dams, channelization and other forms of regulation within the Mississippi Alluvial Plain increased substantially beginning around 1960 suggesting that streamflow is substantially altered after this time period. To overcome the lack of stations that exist in the present that are unaffected by anthropogenic activities (or current reference stations), historical streamflow data were used to estimate what streamflow would be in the present without anthropogenic influence (or current reference conditions). These data, when combined with current streamflow information collected by the USGS in south and eastern Arkansas, southwest corner Kentucky, Louisiana, western Mississippi, southeastern corner Missouri, extreme western Tennessee, and extreme southeastern Texas were used to assess the level of hydrologic alteration within the study area.","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/rra.3427","usgsCitation":"Hart, R.M., and Brian Breaker, 2019, Quantifying hydrologic alteration in an area lacking current reference conditions—The Mississippi Alluvial Plain of the South-Central U.S.: River Research and Applications, v. 35, no. 6, p. 553-565, https://doi.org/10.1002/rra.3427.","productDescription":"13 p.","startPage":"553","endPage":"565","ipdsId":"IP-094894","costCenters":[{"id":24708,"text":"Lower Mississippi-Gulf Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":467720,"rank":1,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/rra.3427","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":437506,"rank":0,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/P9PXSBVW","text":"USGS data release","linkHelpText":"Basin characteristics, climate data, and R-scripts to determine hydrologic alteration in the Mississippi Alluvial Plain"},{"id":362976,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Texas","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -95.3173828125,\n              29.075375179558346\n            ],\n            [\n              -87.5830078125,\n              29.075375179558346\n            ],\n            [\n              -87.5830078125,\n              37.38761749978395\n            ],\n            [\n              -95.3173828125,\n              37.38761749978395\n            ],\n            [\n              -95.3173828125,\n              29.075375179558346\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"35","issue":"6","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":5,"text":"Lafayette PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2019-04-08","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Hart, Rheannon M. 0000-0003-4657-5945 rmhart@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4657-5945","contributorId":5516,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hart","given":"Rheannon","email":"rmhart@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":129,"text":"Arkansas Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":24708,"text":"Lower Mississippi-Gulf Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":760945,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Brian Breaker","contributorId":214843,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Brian Breaker","affiliations":[{"id":12537,"text":"USACE","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":760946,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

The objectives of this study were to determine whether there were reproductive effects or physiological responses in a model bird species, the tree swallow (Tachycineta bicolor), associated with this extremely high exposure to PFASs.  The lack of exposure above background to other contaminants at this site allowed for an assessment of PFAS effects without the complication that responses may be caused by other contaminants.  A secondary objective was to determine the distribution of PFASs in multiple tissue types to better understand and interpret residues in different tissues.  This can best be done at highly exposed locations where tissue concentrations would be expected to be above detectable levels if they are present in that tissue.  There were no demonstrable effects of PFAS exposure on reproduction nor on most physiological responses.","language":"English","publisher":"Springer ","doi":"10.1007/s00244-019-00620-1","usgsCitation":"Custer, C.M., Custer, T.W., Delaney, R., Dummer, P.M., Schultz, S.L., and Karouna-Renier, N., 2019, Perfluoroalkyl contaminant exposure in tree swallows nesting at Clarks Marsh, Oscoda, Michigan, USA: Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, v. 77, no. 1, p. 1-13, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00244-019-00620-1.","productDescription":"13 p.","startPage":"1","endPage":"13","ipdsId":"IP-103625","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":437508,"rank":0,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/P9KKECVJ","text":"USGS data release","linkHelpText":"Perfluoroalkyl contaminant exposure in tree swallows nesting at Clarks Marsh, Oscoda, MI Dataset"},{"id":364426,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":364423,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1007/s00244-019-00620-1"}],"country":"United States","state":"Michigan","county":"Oscoda County","geographicExtents":"{\"type\":\"FeatureCollection\",\"features\":[{\"type\":\"Feature\",\"geometry\":{\"type\":\"Polygon\",\"coordinates\":[[[-83.89,44.8553],[-83.8892,44.7247],[-83.889,44.6809],[-83.8883,44.6325],[-83.8878,44.5946],[-83.8861,44.507],[-84.0098,44.5071],[-84.1309,44.5061],[-84.1808,44.5061],[-84.2507,44.5059],[-84.373,44.5075],[-84.3734,44.596],[-84.373,44.6698],[-84.3729,44.856],[-84.1328,44.8552],[-83.89,44.8553]]]},\"properties\":{\"name\":\"Oscoda\",\"state\":\"MI\"}}]}","volume":"77","issue":"1","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":15,"text":"Madison PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2019-04-06","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Custer, Christine M. 0000-0003-0500-1582 ccuster@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0500-1582","contributorId":1143,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Custer","given":"Christine","email":"ccuster@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":763789,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Custer, Thomas W. 0000-0003-3170-6519","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3170-6519","contributorId":216059,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Custer","given":"Thomas","email":"","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":763790,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Delaney, Robert","contributorId":216060,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Delaney","given":"Robert","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":17835,"text":"Michigan Department of Environmental Quality","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":763791,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Dummer, Paul M. 0000-0002-2055-9480 pdummer@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2055-9480","contributorId":3015,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Dummer","given":"Paul","email":"pdummer@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":763792,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Schultz, Sandra L. 0000-0003-3394-2857 sschultz@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3394-2857","contributorId":5966,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Schultz","given":"Sandra","email":"sschultz@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":763793,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Karouna-Renier, Natalie 0000-0001-7127-033X nkarouna@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7127-033X","contributorId":200983,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Karouna-Renier","given":"Natalie","email":"nkarouna@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":763794,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

For example, it is well known that the availability of updraft influences soaring flight and that topography interacts with weather to produce these updrafts. However, the influences of topography on flight are not well understood. We determined how topographic characteristics influenced flight altitude above ground level (AGL) of a large soaring bird, the Golden Eagle (Aquila chrysaetos), over several regions within the State of California, USA. Primary drivers of flight AGL, those to which eagles showed the same response at all spatial scales, were topographic roughness, ground elevation and the east-west component of aspect (eastness). Each of these is related to formation of thermal updrafts. Secondary drivers, those to which eagles showed region-specific patterns, included topographic position, percent slope, and the north-south component of aspect (northness). In contrast to primary drivers, these secondary drivers were related to formation of both thermal and orographic updrafts. Overall, drivers of flight altitudes that were related to thermal updrafts showed different levels of complexity due to spatial and temporal variation of those drivers than did flight altitudes related to orographic updrafts.","language":"English","publisher":"Oxford Academic","doi":"10.1093/auk/ukz002","usgsCitation":"Duerr, A.E., Miller, T.A., Dunn, L., Bell, D.A., Bloom, P.H., Fisher,

Historic wildfires may offer a suitable surrogate to assess long-term burn impacts on bats for planning, implementing and assessing burning programs going forward.  To examine effects of historic fire on bats, we sampled bat activity at 24 transect locations in burned and unburned forest stands in the central Appalachian Mountains of Shenandoah National Park (SNP), Virginia, USA, 2015. We found limited evidence positive fire effects over time on hoary bats (Lasiurus cinereus) and big brown bats (Eptesicus fuscus) occupancy. Overall, we found few or mostly equivocal relationships of bat occupancy relative to burn condition or time since fire at SNP across species using a false-positive occupancy approach. Our results suggest that fire does not strongly affect bat site occupancy at short or long-term time scales in the central Appalachians.","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s11676-019-00923-y","usgsCitation":"Ford, W., Austin, L.V., Alexander Silvis, and Powers, K.E., 2019, Effects of historic wildfire and prescribed fire on site occupancy of bats in Shenandoah National Park, Virginia, USA: Journal of Forestry Research, v. 31, p. 1255-1270, https://doi.org/10.1007/s11676-019-00923-y.","productDescription":"16 p.","startPage":"1255","endPage":"1270","ipdsId":"IP-090024","costCenters":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":467734,"rank":0,"type":{"id":41,"text":"Open Access External Repository Page"},"url":"https://zotero.org/groups/5435545/items/ZKUIYBMA","text":"External Repository"},{"id":369610,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Virginia","otherGeospatial":"Shenandoah National Park","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -79.4696044921875,\n              37.35269280367274\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.069091796875,\n              37.35269280367274\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.069091796875,\n              39.18969082109678\n            ],\n            [\n              -79.4696044921875,\n              39.18969082109678\n            ],\n            [\n              -79.4696044921875,\n              37.35269280367274\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"31","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2019-04-04","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Ford, W.

Benthic and planktic foraminifer assemblages from the South Dover Bridge (SDB) and Mattawoman Creek-Billingsley Road (MCBR) cores in the central Salisbury Embayment record changing latest Paleocene and earliest Eocene ecological conditions that began prior to the carbon isotope excursion (CIE) that marks the beginning of the PETM. The foraminiferal response reflects increases in productivity first in bottom water and then in the mixed layer, a minor dissolution event, and rising sea-surface temperatures in the latest Paleocene. Relative sea level changes, a sudden change in sedimentary regime, a decrease in bottom water oxygenation, and a downward expansion of the mixed layer occurred across the PETM onset. In the earliest Eocene, foraminiferal assemblages document a gradual shallowing of the thermocline and/or cooling of the surface layer. While SDB assemblages support a rise in sea level across the PETM onset, MCBR assemblages record a drop in sea level interpreted as delta progradation. Transitional carbon isotope values characterizing the nature of the CIE are recorded in these delta sediments. We present an initial bathymetric reconstruction of the Salisbury Embayment showing the physical effects of the CIE onset on shelf morphology and highlight the importance of understanding coastal zone processes when examining shelf sediments.","language":"English","publisher":"American Geophysical Union","doi":"10.1029/2018PA003357","usgsCitation":"Robinson, M.M., and Spivey, W., 2019, Environmental and geomorphological changes on the eastern North American Continental Shelf across the Paleocene-Eocene Boundary: Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, v. 34, no. 4, p. 715-732, https://doi.org/10.1029/2018PA003357.","productDescription":"18 p.","startPage":"715","endPage":"732","ipdsId":"IP-095858","costCenters":[{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":467737,"rank":1,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1029/2018pa003357","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":437513,"rank":0,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/P94HDUEE","text":"USGS data release","linkHelpText":"Paleocene-Eocene foraminifer census data from South Dover Bridge and Mattawoman Creek-Billingsley Road coreholes"},{"id":362970,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -78.57421875,\n              37.97884504049713\n            ],\n            [\n              -73.80615234375,\n              37.97884504049713\n            ],\n            [\n              -73.80615234375,\n              40.29628651711716\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.57421875,\n              40.29628651711716\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.57421875,\n              37.97884504049713\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"34","issue":"4","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2019-04-30","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Robinson, Marci M. 0000-0002-9200-4097 mmrobinson@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9200-4097","contributorId":2082,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Robinson","given":"Marci","email":"mmrobinson@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":40020,"text":"Florence Bascom Geoscience Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":760962,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Spivey, Whittney 0000-0003-1111-3361 wspivey@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1111-3361","contributorId":214849,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Spivey","given":"Whittney","email":"wspivey@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":40020,"text":"Florence Bascom Geoscience Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":760963,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

LiDAR data, however, have revealed the presence of widespread eolian dunes and sand sheets (now covered by vegetation) at many inland locations throughout the U.S. Atlantic Coastal Plain (Swezey, in press).  To date, a total of 89 OSL ages ranging from ~92–5 thousand years ago (ka) have been published from these eolian sediments, and 61 of these 89 OSL ages occur within or near the interval of the last glacial maximum (LGM).  \nQuaternary eolian sediments have been identified in the following four inland settings of the U.S. Atlantic Coastal Plain: (1) on interfluvial upland areas of the northern coastal plain; (2) in the Carolina Sandhills region; (3) within river valleys; and (4) adjacent to low relief elliptical depressions known as Carolina Bays.  Most of these eolian sediments are composed of fine to medium quartz sand, although a substantial component of silt is present in the northern coastal plain, and a substantial component of coarse sand is present in the Carolina Sandhills region.  \nThe eolian sediments in interfluvial upland areas of the northern coastal plain (Delaware, Maryland) form both sand sheets and parabolic dunes (with dune tails pointing to the northwest).  These eolian sediments in the northern upland areas were probably remobilized from any loose sediments that were available in the area, and the location near the southern margin of the LGM ice sheet is similar to extensive Quaternary eolian sand and loess deposits in Europe, China, and the central United States.  \nThe eolian sediments in the Carolina Sandhills region form mostly sand sheets and some linear dunes of relatively short extent.  These eolian sediments are thought to have been derived from sand of the immediately underlying Cretaceous fluvial strata.  \nThe eolian sediments within river valleys form parabolic dunes that are located to the east of the modern river channels.  The tails of these eolian dunes within river valleys point northwest in the northern coastal plain (Delaware, Maryland) and they point west in the southern coastal plain (North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia).  These eolian sediments within river valleys are thought to have been derived from fluvial sand in the nearby river channels.  \n\tThe eolian sediments associated with Carolina Bays form arcuate ridges on the east and south sides of the depressions (“bays”).  Some Carolina Bays show cross-cutting relations with other Carolina Bays.  Other Carolina Bays show different stratigraphic relations with respect to eolian dunes within river valleys.  For example, Bear Swamp (Marion County, South Carolina) is a Carolina Bay that is inset into (i.e., younger than) eolian dunes in the valley of the Great Pee Dee River.  As another example, Big Bay (Sumter County, South Carolina) is a Carolina Bay that is overlain by (i.e., older than) eolian dunes in the valley at the confluence of the Congaree and Wateree Rivers.  Cores in Carolina Bays and their associated ridges reveal a few meters of sand and (or) muddy sand above an unconformity on various older fine-grained substrates that do not show signs of disturbance.  Most published OSL ages from Carolina Bay sand ridges range from ~45–8 ka.  Some bays have multiple sand ridges, and ridges closer to individual bays yield younger OSL ages.  \nIn summary, Quaternary eolian sediments are widespread throughout the U.S. Atlantic Coastal Plain province, and most of these sediments are thought to have been mobilized within or near the interval of the LGM when conditions were much colder, drier, and windier.  These eolian sediments are thus interpreted as relict features that have subsequently been stabilized and degraded by vegetation and pedoge","language":"English","publisher":"Minnesota Geological

Some eruptions began with only brief seismic unrest, while others followed several months to a year of increased seismicity. Once underway, its eruptions can produce lava flows that may reach the sea in less than 24 hours, severing roads and utilities. For example, lava flows erupted from the Southwest Rift Zone (SWRZ) in 1950 advanced at an average rate of 9.3 km per hour, and all three lobes reached the ocean within approximately 24 hours (Finch and Macdonald, 1953). Near the eruptive vents, the flows must have traveled even faster. In terms of eruption frequency, pre-eruption warning, and rapid flow emplacement, Mauna Loa poses an enormous volcanic-hazard threat to the Island of Hawai‘i. Volcanic hazards on Mauna Loa may be anticipated, and risk substantially mitigated, by documenting the past activity to refine our knowledge of the hazards and by alerting the public and local government officials of our findings and their implications for hazards assessments and risk.</p><p>From the geologic record, we may deduce several generalized facts about the geologic history of the Northeast Rift Zone (NERZ). The middle to uppermost segments of the rift zone were more active in the past 4,000 years than the lower portion of the rift zone. This may be due to buttressing of the lower east rift zone by Mauna Kea and Kīlauea volcanoes. The historical flows that erupted on the north side of the rift zone advanced toward Hilo. This flank of the volcano may be more vulnerable to inundation. Lockwood (1990) noted that the vents of historical activity are migrating to the south. The volcano appears to have a self-regulating mechanism that evenly distributes long-term activity across its flanks. The geologic record also supports this notion; the time prior to the historical period (Age Group 1, pre-A.D. 1832 to 1,000 yrs B.P.; orange units) is dominated by activity on the south side of the NERZ.</p><p>Although most Mauna Loa eruptions begin in the summit area at the 12,000-ft elevation (Lockwood and Lipman, 1987), the central-southeast flank has not been the source of any activity. All flows originated from the summit or the upper reaches of the Northeast Rift Zone (NERZ) or the Southwest Rift Zone (SWRZ). The NERZ was the source of eight flank eruptions since 1843. The NERZ extends from the 13,680-ft-high summit towards Hilo (population ~60,000; second-largest city in State of Hawaii). The northern portion of the map area is built entirely on flows erupted from the NERZ. The SWRZ extends from the summit towards Kalae (South Point) at sea level. The southern portion of the map area is built entirely on flows erupted from the SWRZ.</p><p>The map area extends from the <span>10,350</span>-ft elevation on Mauna Loa’s east flank toward the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and the town of Volcano (population approx. 2,000) in the northeast. At the south boundary of the map area is the town of Pāhala (population approx. 900). This map includes areas adjacent to and downslope of the NERZ and regions east of and directly downslope of Moku‘āweoweo, Mauna Loa’s summit caldera.</p><p>The map encompasses 506 km<sup>2 </sup>of the southeast flank (fig. 1) of Mauna Loa from <span>10,350</span>-ft elevation to sea level. The map of the central-southeast flank of Mauna Loa shows the distribution and relations of volcanic and surficial sedimentary deposits separated into 15 age groups ranging from a period greater than 50,000 yr B.P. to A.D. 1984.

Numerous foot traverses were completed along creeks and roads throughout the field area; the shore of Lake Anna was accessed by kayak to provide additional data. Distributions of soil units were considered when assigning bedrock type in areas where outcrop was lacking and helped to distinguish fluvial terrace deposits. Hill-shade raster images created from LiDAR datasets and geophysical data sets proved useful in the field to trace bedrock and surficial units. GPS location control and field data were collected and recorded in digital databases using a variety of geologic mapping applications for an iPad 3rd Gen Model A1403 and Motion C5v tablet using Fieldmove 2013.1.  Structural measurements were also plotted on field maps.  Data collected included lithology and the orientation of foliations, folds, lineations, joints, and faults.  Representative rock samples of significant formations were thin-sectioned for petrographic analysis; a few samples from these and surrounding quadrangles were analyzed for zircon U-Pb geochronology and geochemistry.","language":"English","publisher":"Virginia Department of Mines Minerals and Energy, Division of Geology and Mineral Resources","usgsCitation":"Carter, M.W., Burton, W.C., McAleer, R.J., DiGiacomo-Cohen, M., and Sauer, R.T., 2019, Geology of the Mineral and Lake Anna West Quadrangles, Virginia: Virginia Division of Geology and Mineral Resources Publication 189, Pamphlet: iv, 41 p.; 2 Plates: 37 x 59 and 32 x 47 inches.","productDescription":"Pamphlet: iv, 41 p.; 2 Plates: 37 x 59 and 32 x 47 inches","onlineOnly":"Y","ipdsId":"IP-099519","costCenters":[{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":245,"text":"Eastern Mineral and Environmental Resources Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":365402,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":365401,"rank":1,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://www.dmme.virginia.gov/commerce/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=3026"}],"country":"United States","state":"Virginia","county":"Louisa County, Orange County, Spotsylvania County","otherGeospatial":"Lake Anna Quadrangle, Mineral Quadrangle","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -77.96585083007812,\n              37.93444993515032\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.65960693359375,\n              37.93444993515032\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.65960693359375,\n              38.1334763895322\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.96585083007812,\n              38.1334763895322\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.96585083007812,\n              37.93444993515032\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Carter, Mark W. 0000-0003-0460-7638 mcarter@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0460-7638","contributorId":4808,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Carter","given":"Mark","email":"mcarter@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":40020,"text":"Florence Bascom Geoscience Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":245,"text":"Eastern Mineral and Environmental Resources Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":765553,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Burton, William C. 0000-0001-7519-5787 bburton@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7519-5787","contributorId":1293,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Burton","given":"William","email":"bburton@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":40020,"text":"Florence Bascom Geoscience Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":765554,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"McAleer, Ryan J. 0000-0003-3801-7441 rmcaleer@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3801-7441","contributorId":215498,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"McAleer","given":"Ryan","email":"rmcaleer@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":40020,"text":"Florence Bascom Geoscience Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":765555,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"DiGiacomo-Cohen, Mary 0000-0003-2384-8912","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2384-8912","contributorId":211592,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"DiGiacomo-Cohen","given":"Mary","affiliations":[{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":765557,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Sauer, R.

High-Flow Experiments or HFEs) when the greatest amount of the finest sand is available on the bed of the Colorado River (Topping and others, 2010). Conducting HFEs when the sand on the bed of the Colorado River is depleted and coarse can result in relatively widespread erosion of sandbars during HFEs (Hazel and others, 1999; Schmidt, 1999, Rubin and others, 2002). Here we show that sandbar building during HFEs is maximized during periods following tributary floods that resupply the river with large amounts of very fine sand. Conversely, sandbars erode during HFEs when the antecedent sand supply is depleted and coarse. HFEs should be conducted during the fall-winter months of October through January to take advantage of having the greatest amount of very fine sand available on the bed of the Colorado River in Marble Canyon. Conducting HFEs in the spring would necessitate lowering dam operations over the winter months in order to retain the very fine sand supplied during the previous summer.</p>","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"High-Flow Experiments Assessment Extended Abstracts ","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":12,"text":"Conference

Simultaneously, Kīlauea’s summit experienced its largest collapse in 200 years, with a total of 500 meters (1,640 feet) subsidence and tens of earthquakes each day rattling surrounding communities. These simultaneous events impacted residential, agricultural, business, tourist, and scientific areas. Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park closed, slowing tourism and the local economy. The building housing the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Hawai'ian Volcano Observatory also closed, displacing scientists responsible for monitoring the erupting volcano. The eruption lasted 107 days, one of the longest eruptions in recent history in lower Puna. Throughout the eruption, uncertainty regarding the duration of the event, its extent, and total damage remained high. This uncertainty led to social tensions and fatigue across the affected community, responders, and local officials. </p><p>At the direction of the USGS Director, serving as the Science Advisor to the Secretary of the of the Interior, the Department of the Interior (DOI, hereafter also referred to as “the Department”) Strategic Sciences Group (SSG) convened a multidisciplinary group of 13 experts in Hilo, Hawai'i, on July 17-19, 2018. The SSG was charged with considering the cascading short- and long-term social, economic, and environmental consequences of the 2018 Kīlauea eruption to DOI resources, employees, and facilities as well as to the surrounding communities. Established in 2012, the SSG is designed to complement ongoing response efforts by providing strategic science to identify potential social, environmental, and economic consequences and potential interventions during a crisis event affecting Departmental resources. This activation of the SSG was funded by the USGS. It was the first official activation of the SSG since it supported Hurricane Sandy recovery in 2013 and provided the unique opportunity to test new methods, including bolstering the social science expertise on the team and interacting directly with stakeholders before, during, and after deployment. </p><p>The SSG Kīlauea Team developed three scenarios focused on 1) the impacts of continued seismicity and deformation at the summit; 2) vog (volcanic smog); and 3) the eruption in the lower East Rift Zone. Across all scenarios, areas of concern included human health (physical and mental); biosecurity (for example, protecting threatened and endangered species); infrastructure (impacts caused by seismic activity, vog, and lava); communications (internal and public-facing); long-term planning (related to tourism, access, housing); and ongoing needs for community engagement and empowerment. The SSG Kīlauea Team identified 59 potential actions for mitigation. Highlights of these actions were delivered to stakeholders during briefings in August and September 2018. Examples of potential actions included: ● Seize opportunities to develop new partnerships within and outside of DOI to address facilities issues caused by seismic damage and park closure. ● Educate community members and new workers to increase early detection of invasive species and establish new wash stations to address biosecurity threats to the park posed by more frequent commuting from new temporary Hilo locations. ● Create a \"vog officer\" position to ensure coordination and consistency in communication about vog hazards across federal, state, and county agencies. </p><p>It is important to note that the potential actions are suggestions and are not intended to be prescriptive. The SSG uses “blue sky thinking” when developing these potential actions to encourage creative approaches to problem solving. In some cases, some of the suggested potential actions derived by the SSG are actions that were already underway, or already under consideration and helped to affirm 3 activities by different stakeholders. In other cases, the actions may be new ideas. Some were applicable to immediate response, while others are more relevant to long-term recovery. </p><p>This report details the results from the July 2018 activation of the SSG. It includes background on Kīlauea and the 2018 eruption, an overview of SSG methodology, and a complete list of the potential actions to mitigate cascading consequences identified by the SSG. Importantly, Appendix 4 includes several rapidly assembled “issue papers” on a variety of topics for consideration for recovery and future preparedness and response activities. This report is designed to be used by both the Department and more broadly by partners, including the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Hawai'i County, Hawai'i Department of Health, and the Hawai'i Emergency Management Agency. </p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Department of the Interior","usgsCitation":"Ludwig, K.A., Pennaz, A., and Wilkins, A., 2019, Results from the Department of the Interior Strategic Sciences Group Technical Support for the 2018 Kīlauea Eruption: Cooperator Report, 56 p.","productDescription":"56 p.","ipdsId":"IP-106209","costCenters":[{"id":508,"text":"Office of the AD Hazards","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":368843,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":368841,"rank":1,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://edit.doi.gov/sites/doi.gov/files/uploads/ssg-kilauea-cooperator-report-508.pdf"}],"country":"United States","state":"Hawaii","otherGeospatial":"Kīlauea Volcano","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -155.3243637084961,\n              19.279711728098313\n            ],\n            [\n              -155.05828857421875,\n              19.279711728098313\n            ],\n            [\n              -155.05828857421875,\n              19.45008284272312\n            ],\n            [\n              -155.3243637084961,\n              19.45008284272312\n            ],\n            [\n              -155.3243637084961,\n              19.279711728098313\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Ludwig, K.

Application of the concept of extensional\nstrain to ancient orogenic systems, like the Grenville province of eastern North\nAmerica, has helped decipher the structural evolution of these regions. The Marcy\nmassif is a ~3000 km2 Mesoproterozoic anorthosite batholith in the Adirondack\nMountains (New York, USA) of the southern Grenville province. Bedrock geology\nmapping at 1:24,000 scale paired with characterization of bedrock exposed by recent\nlandslides provides a glimpse into the structural architecture of the massif and\nits margin. New data demonstrate granulite- to amphibolite-facies deformational\nfabrics parallel the margin of the batholith, and that the Marcy massif is draped by\na southeast-directed detachment zone. Within the massif, strain is localized into\nmutually offsetting conjugate shear zones with antithetic kinematic indicators.\nThese relationships indicate that strain was coaxial within the Marcy massif, and\nthat subsimple shear components of strain were partitioned along its margin. In\nsitu U–Th–total Pb monazite analysis shows that deformation around and over the\nMarcy massif occurred from 1070 to 1060 Ma during granulite-facies metamorphism,\nand monazite from all samples record evidence for fluid-mediated dissolution reprecipitation\nfrom 1050 to 980 Ma. We interpret that rocks cooled isobarically after accretionary\norogenesis and emplacement of the anorthosite- mangerite- charnockitegranite\nplutonic suite at ca. 1160–1140 Ma. Gravitational collapse during the Ottawan\nphase of the Grenville orogeny initiated along a southeast-directed detachment\nzone (Marcy massif detachment zone), which accommodated intrusion of the Lyon\nMountain Granite Gneiss, and facilitated substantial fluid flow that catalyzed the\nformation of major ore deposits in the Adirondack Highlands.","language":"English","publisher":"Geological Society of America","doi":"10.1130/GES02029.1","usgsCitation":"Regan, S., Walsh, G.J., Williams, M.L., Chiarenzelli, J.R., Toft, M.E., and McAleer, R.J., 2019, Syn-collisional exhumation of hot middle crust in the Adirondack Mountains (New York, USA): Implications for extensional orogenesis in the southern Grenville province: Geosphere, v. 15, p. 1-22, https://doi.org/10.1130/GES02029.1.","productDescription":"22 p.","startPage":"1","endPage":"22","ipdsId":"IP-097058","costCenters":[{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":467760,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1130/ges02029.1","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":363690,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"New York","otherGeospatial":"Adirondack Mountains","volume":"15","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2019-05-08","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Regan, Sean 0000-0002-8445-5138","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8445-5138","contributorId":215494,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Regan","given":"Sean","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":762484,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Walsh, Gregory J. 0000-0003-4264-8836 gwalsh@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4264-8836","contributorId":873,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Walsh","given":"Gregory","email":"gwalsh@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":40020,"text":"Florence Bascom Geoscience Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":762485,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Williams, Michael L.","contributorId":215495,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Williams","given":"Michael","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":37201,"text":"UMass Amherst","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":762486,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Chiarenzelli, Jeffrey R.","contributorId":215496,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Chiarenzelli","given":"Jeffrey","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":39266,"text":"St. Lawrence University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":762487,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Toft, Megan E.","contributorId":215497,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Toft","given":"Megan","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":37201,"text":"UMass Amherst","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":762488,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"McAleer, Ryan J. 0000-0003-3801-7441 rmcaleer@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3801-7441","contributorId":215498,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"McAleer","given":"Ryan","email":"rmcaleer@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":40020,"text":"Florence Bascom Geoscience Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":762489,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

The middle East Rift Zone (MERZ) map includes about 27 square kilometers of the MERZ and shows the distribution of the products of 34 separate eruptions during late Holocene time. Lava flows erupted during 1983–86 have reached the mapped area. The subaerial part of the MERZ is 3–4 km wide and about 18 km long. It is a constructional ridge, 50–150 m above the adjoining terrain, marked by low spatter ramparts and cones as high as 60 m. Lava typically flowed either northeast or southeast, depending on vent location relative to the topographic crest of the rift zone. The MERZ receives more than 100 inches of rainfall annually and is covered by tropical rain forest. Vegetation begins to grow on lava a few months after its eruption. Relative heights of trees can be a guide to relative ages of underlying lava flows, but proximity to faults, presence of easily weathered cinders, and human activity also affect the rate of growth. The rocks have been grouped into five basic age groups. The framework for the ages assigned is provided by eight radiocarbon ages from nearby mapping by the authors and a single date from within this investigation area. The numerical ages are supplemented by observations of stratigraphic relations, degree of weathering, soil development, and vegetative cover.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/ds1111","usgsCitation":"Zoeller, M.H., Trusdell, F.A., and Moore, R.B., 2019, Digital database of the geologic map of the middle east rift geothermal subzone, Kīlauea Volcano, Hawai'i: U.S. Geological Survey Data Series 1111, scale 1:24,000, https://doi.org/10.3133/ds1111.","productDescription":"Database; Metadata; Read Me","onlineOnly":"Y","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","ipdsId":"IP-101940","costCenters":[{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":362530,"rank":5,"type":{"id":22,"text":"Related Work"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/imap/2614/","text":"Geologic Investigations Series I-2614"},{"id":362524,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/1111/coverthb.jpg"},{"id":362525,"rank":2,"type":{"id":20,"text":"Read Me"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/1111/readme.txt","size":"5 KB","linkFileType":{"id":2,"text":"txt"},"description":"Data Series 1111 Readme"},{"id":362528,"rank":3,"type":{"id":9,"text":"Database"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/1111/Database.zip","text":"ZIP","size":"2 MB","description":"Data Series 1111 Database Zip","linkHelpText":" - Zip file containing all database files"},{"id":362529,"rank":4,"type":{"id":16,"text":"Metadata"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/1111/Metadata.zip","text":"ZIP","size":"583 KB","description":"Data Series 1111 Metadata Zip","linkHelpText":" - Zip file containing all metadata files"}],"country":"United States","state":"Hawaii","otherGeospatial":"Kilauea volcano middle East Rift Zone","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -154.996477,\n              19.403433\n            ],\n            [\n              -154.996477,\n              19.463472\n            ],\n            [\n              -155.072903,\n              19.463472\n            ],\n            [\n              -155.072903,\n              19.403433\n            ],\n            [\n              -154.996477,\n              19.403433\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","contact":"<p><a href=\"https://hvo.wr.usgs.gov/observatory/contactHVO.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-mce-href=\"https://hvo.wr.usgs.gov/observatory/contactHVO.html\">Contact HVO</a><br><a href=\"https://hvo.wr.usgs.gov/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-mce-href=\"https://hvo.wr.usgs.gov/\">Volcano Science Center, Hawaiian Volcano Observatory</a><br><a href=\"https://usgs.gov/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-mce-href=\"https://usgs.gov/\">U.S. Geological Survey</a><br>P.O.

Fire refugia, unburned or low-severity burned patches where trees survived fire, may serve as essential propagule sources that enable forest regeneration.</p><h3 class=\"c-article__sub-heading\" data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Objectives</h3><p>To quantify the influence of fire refugia spatial pattern and other biophysical factors on the process of post-fire tree regeneration; in particular examining both the proximity and density of surrounding refugia to characterize the landscape of refugial seed sources.</p><h3 class=\"c-article__sub-heading\" data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Methods</h3><p>We surveyed regeneration at 135 sites in stand-replacement patches across a gradient of fire refugia density in eastern Oregon, USA. We characterized the influence of refugial seed source pattern and other environmental factors on the abundance of regenerating seedlings, and examined the relationship between post-fire climate and the temporal pattern of ponderosa pine seedling establishment.</p><h3 class=\"c-article__sub-heading\" data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Results</h3><p>Tree seedlings&nbsp;were present in 83% of plots 12–17&nbsp;years post-fire, and densities varied substantially (0–67800 stems ha<sup>−1</sup>, median = 1100). Variation in seedling abundance was driven by the spatial patterns of refugial seed sources.

The composition and volume of Cenozoic&nbsp;magmas&nbsp;reflect a complex interaction between mantle-derived magmas and highly diverse crust, where both&nbsp;mantle sources&nbsp;and magmatic processes were modulated by tectonic environment. The Fish Creek Mountains in north-central Nevada underwent multiple igneous events ranging from ca. 40 Ma to 1 Ma that span all of the complex Cenozoic tectono-magmatic episodes of the Great Basin. The Fish Creek Mountains, therefore, is an ideal location to evaluate the different sources and processes involved in&nbsp;magma generation. Many plutons were emplaced in the region between about 40 and 38 Ma, several of which host base and precious metal deposits. Between 36 and 33 Ma, lava fields and calderas of the 37–19 Ma Ignimbrite Flare-up were emplaced. Both these and the preceding plutons resulted from southwestward rollback of the Farallon plate beneath North America during by far the most voluminous phase of Cenozoic&nbsp;magmatism. The lavas range from rare&nbsp;basalt&nbsp;and basaltic&nbsp;andesite&nbsp;to andesite,&nbsp;dacite, and&nbsp;rhyolite, have continental arc-like incompatible element patterns, and high initial&nbsp;</span><sup>87</sup>Sr/<sup>86</sup>Sr and low εNd that require a metasomatized lithospheric mantle source combined with minor crustal component. Ignimbrites of the 34.4 Ma Cove Mine (trachydacite to rhyolite) and 34.0 Ma Caetano calderas (rhyolite to high-silica rhyolite) are abundantly porphyritic, include hydrous phases, were largely derived from partial melts of crustal rocks, but likely include 20–30% of a mantle-derived component.</p><p id=\"sp0285\">Igneous activity ceased in the region as the rollback-arc migrated to the southwest, but at 24.9 Ma a new caldera formed in the southern Fish Creek Mountains that was filled by ignimbrites of the Fish Creek Mountains Tuff. Intracaldera rhyolite ignimbrites range from aphyric, pumice-rich deposits at the base to progressively more quartz-feldspar phyric ignimbrites at higher levels; all flow units lack hydrous phases. No contemporaneous mafic or intermediate igneous activity accompanied caldera formation, but initial<span>&nbsp;</span><sup>87</sup>Sr/<sup>86</sup>Sr values in the Fish Creek Mountains tuffs are lower than in the Caetano Tuff, suggesting a greater mantle contribution to the 24.9 Ma ignimbrites.</p><p id=\"sp0290\">After another hiatus in igneous activity, the region was intruded and overlain by basalt to rhyolite dykes and lavas of the northern Nevada rift between 16.8 and 15.1 Ma. The primarily tholeiitic igneous suite is of the same age, chemistry, and<span>&nbsp;</span>isotopic composition<span>&nbsp;as the Grande Ronde Formation of the Columbia River&nbsp;flood basalts, and evolved members (trachydacite and rhyolite) are crustally contaminated. The youngest northern Nevada rift lava is an alkali olivine basalt with isotopic affinity to basalts of the eastern Snake&nbsp;River Plain.</span></p><p id=\"sp0295\"><span>After 10 Ma of quiescence, the region was locally covered by mafic&nbsp;lava flows&nbsp;with high-alumina olivine&nbsp;tholeiite&nbsp;compositions, represented by the 5.4 Ma Pumpernickel Valley flows. Their mid-ocean ridge-like incompatible element compositions indicate a depleted mantle source for the lavas, but radiogenic isotopic compositions indicate that the lavas of this region include a significant contribution from a mafic to ultramafic, high-</span><sup>87</sup>Sr/<sup>86</sup>Sr source.</p><p id=\"sp0300\"><span>The final igneous event in the Fish Creek Mountains region, the 4.0 to 1.0 Ma Buffalo Valley volcanic field, includes flows and spatter cones of transitional to alkalic basalt that are divided into two geochemical groups with identical isotopic compositions. They represent variable, low percent partial melts of the&nbsp;asthenosphere&nbsp;at different depths, yielding different&nbsp;rare earth element&nbsp;characteristics.

Magmatism began as pre-extension, subduction-related, primarily lithospherically-derived magmas emplaced on/in tectonically-thickened crust. The onset of extension was partially driven by impingement of the Yellowstone plume that resulted in emplacement of rift-related volcanic and intrusive rocks in the northern Nevada rift, followed by the eruption of extension-related HAOT lavas along the northwest margin of the Great Basin. Finally, lithospheric thinning allowed for partial melting of the asthenosphere and eruption of alkaline basaltic lavas.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.earscirev.2019.03.013","usgsCitation":"Cousens, B.L., Henry, C., Stevens, C., Varve, S., John, D.A., and Wetmore, S., 2019, Igneous rocks in the Fish Creek Mountains and environs, Battle Mountain area, north-central Nevada:  A microcosm of Cenozoic igneous activity in the northern Great Basin, Basin and Range Province, USA: Earth Science Reviews, v. 192, p. 403-444, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2019.03.013.","productDescription":"42 p.","startPage":"403","endPage":"444","ipdsId":"IP-106227","costCenters":[{"id":312,"text":"Geology, Minerals, Energy, and Geophysics Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":467764,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2019.03.013","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":426126,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Nevada","otherGeospatial":"Fish Creek Mountains","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -117.47697929230347,\n              40.28016235329471\n            ],\n            [\n              -117.47697929230347,\n              40.07291126292276\n            ],\n            [\n              -117.18999422148758,\n              40.07291126292276\n            ],\n            [\n              -117.18999422148758,\n              40.28016235329471\n            ],\n            [\n              -117.47697929230347,\n              40.28016235329471\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"192","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Cousens, Brian L. 0000-0002-9704-6974","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9704-6974","contributorId":242801,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Cousens","given":"Brian","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":17786,"text":"Carleton University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":895636,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Henry, Christopher D.","contributorId":36556,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Henry","given":"Christopher D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":895637,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Stevens, Christopher","contributorId":334440,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Stevens","given":"Christopher","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":17786,"text":"Carleton University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":895638,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Varve, Susan","contributorId":334441,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Varve","given":"Susan","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":17786,"text":"Carleton University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":895639,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"John, David A. 0000-0001-7977-9106 djohn@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7977-9106","contributorId":1748,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"John","given":"David","email":"djohn@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":312,"text":"Geology, Minerals, Energy, and Geophysics Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":895640,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Wetmore, Stacey","contributorId":334442,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Wetmore","given":"Stacey","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":17786,"text":"Carleton University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":895641,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

However, little is known about its environmental behavior or impacts, including its concentrations or cycling in the atmosphere. This study determined indium concentrations in air particulate matter at five locations across the northeastern United States over the course of one year, in 1995. Historical records from a Massachusetts bog core showed that indium atmospheric concentrations in this region changed only modestly between 1995 and 2010. Atmospheric indium concentrations varied significantly both geographically and temporally, with average concentrations in PM</span><small><sub>3</sub></small><span>&nbsp;of 2.1 ± 1.6 pg m</span><small><sup>−3</sup></small><span>&nbsp;(1 standard deviation), and average particle-normalized concentrations of 0.2 ± 0.2 μg In per g PM</span><small><sub>3</sub></small><span>. Peaks in the particle-normalized concentrations in two New York sites were correlated with wind direction; air coming from the north contributed higher concentrations of indium than air coming from the west. This correlation, along with measurements of indium in zinc smelter emissions and coal fly ash, suggests that indium in the atmosphere in the northeastern United States comes from a relatively constant low-level input from coal combustion in the midwest, and higher but more sporadic contributions from the smelting of lead, zinc, copper, tin, and nickel north of the New York sample sites. Understanding the industrial sources of indium to the atmosphere and how they compare with natural sources can lead to a better understanding of the impact of human activities on the indium cycle, and may help to establish a baseline for monitoring future impacts as indium use grows.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Royal Society of Chemistry","doi":"10.1039/c8em00485d","usgsCitation":"White, S.J., and Hemond, H.F., 2019, Emerging investigator series: Atmospheric cycling of indium in the northeastern United States: Environmental Science: Processes and Impacts, v. 21, no. 4, p. 623-634, https://doi.org/10.1039/c8em00485d.","productDescription":"12 p.","startPage":"623","endPage":"634","ipdsId":"IP-104440","costCenters":[{"id":245,"text":"Eastern Mineral and Environmental Resources Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":365317,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Massachusetts, New York","city":"Boston, Brockport, Reading, Rochester, Thoreau's Bog","otherGeospatial":"Quabbin Reservoir","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -78.31054687499999,\n              42.89206418807337\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.18994140625,\n              42.89206418807337\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.18994140625,\n              43.389081939117496\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.31054687499999,\n              43.389081939117496\n            ],\n            [\n              -78.31054687499999,\n              42.89206418807337\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    },\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -72.4658203125,\n              42.049292638686836\n            ],\n            [\n              -71.015625,\n              42.049292638686836\n            ],\n            [\n              -71.015625,\n              42.68243539838623\n            ],\n            [\n              -72.4658203125,\n              42.68243539838623\n            ],\n            [\n              -72.4658203125,\n              42.049292638686836\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"21","issue":"4","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"White, Sarah Jane 0000-0002-4055-8207","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4055-8207","contributorId":216796,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"White","given":"Sarah","email":"","middleInitial":"Jane","affiliations":[{"id":245,"text":"Eastern Mineral and Environmental Resources Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":765551,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Hemond, Harold F.","contributorId":34673,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hemond","given":"Harold","email":"","middleInitial":"F.","affiliations":[{"id":13299,"text":"Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":765552,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

The study area is located in the Atlantic Coastal Plain province, approximately 50 to 70 kilometers (km) inland from the coast. The data are compiled from geological field mapping, light detection and ranging (lidar) elevation data, cores, optically stimulated luminescence ages, radiocarbon ages, and biostratigraphic interpretations. Most of the study area is occupied by the valley of the Savannah River, and exposures of geologic units are very limited. Traditional geologic mapping in this area is difficult because of limited access, subdued topography, extensive swamps, and abundant vegetation.</p><p>The Savannah River flows predominantly southeast, and forms most of the border between the States of South Carolina and Georgia. The river is approximately 483 km long and has a total drainage area of approximately 15,850 square km. Although upstream tributaries drain the southeastern side of the Appalachian Blue Ridge province, the Savannah River begins in the Piedmont province and then flows across the Atlantic Coastal Plain province to the Atlantic Ocean. For much of its extent, the modern channel of the Savannah River is located on the southwestern side of the river valley, and the southwestern bank of the valley is the active cut bank. Within the study area, the valley of the Savannah River trends southeast and is relatively straight. The valley has relatively low relief, although the southwestern valley wall is steeper and has greater relief than the northeastern valley wall.</p><p>Elevations within the valley mostly range from 3 to 15 meters (m) above sea level, whereas elevations on the high terrace that forms the eastern margin of the Savannah River valley are 15 to 20 m above sea level. The width of the valley is 6 to 7 km in the northern part of the study area and expands to 10 to 12 km farther south. The modern river channel occupies the southwestern side of the valley, and some modern (active) creeks enter the river from the west. Sand hills and low-relief terraces are present to the east of the modern river channel, and the eastern side of the valley is characterized by abandoned meandering and linear channels. Fan-shaped deposits of sand and mud are present where relict (inactive) channels enter the eastern side of the valley. Abandoned meandering channels of low relief (&lt;3 m) are also present to the east on the high terrace (&gt;15 m elevation) that forms the eastern margin of the Savannah River valley. Within the study area, most of the Savannah River valley is covered by alluvial wetland community vegetation dominated by cypress and tupelo trees, although sand hills within the valley are covered by xeric sand community vegetation dominated by pine trees.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sim3424","usgsCitation":"Swezey, C.S., Schultz, A.P., Doar, W.R., III, Garrity, C.P., Bernhardt, C.E., Crider, E.A., Jr., Edwards, L.E., and McGeehin, J.P., 2019, Geology of the Hardeeville NW quadrangle and parts of the Brighton and Pineland quadrangles, Jasper County, South Carolina: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Map 3424, 2 sheets, scale 1:24,000, https://doi.org/10.3133/sim3424.","productDescription":"2 Sheets: 51.79 x 40.25 inches and 32.20 x 40.22 inches; Companion File; Database; XML Metadata","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","ipdsId":"IP-040734","costCenters":[{"id":40020,"text":"Florence Bascom Geoscience Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":361223,"rank":5,"type":{"id":16,"text":"Metadata"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sim/3424/metadata/sim3424_fgdc.xml","text":"XML Metadata","size":"37.3 KB xml"},{"id":361056,"rank":2,"type":{"id":26,"text":"Sheet"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sim/3424/sim3424_sheet1.pdf","text":"Sheet 1 ","size":"185 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"linkHelpText":"- Geologic Map and Lidar Shaded-Relief Map"},{"id":361057,"rank":3,"type":{"id":26,"text":"Sheet"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sim/3424/sim3424_sheet2.pdf","text":"Sheet 2","size":"6.95 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"linkHelpText":"- Cross Sections, Stratigraphic Descriptions from Cores, Optically Stimulated Luminescence and Radiocarbon Ages, and Dinoflagellate Biostratigraphic Interpretations"},{"id":361055,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sim/3424/coverthb2.jpg"},{"id":361222,"rank":4,"type":{"id":9,"text":"Database"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sim/3424/metadata/sim3424.gdb.zip","size":"1.44 MB","linkFileType":{"id":6,"text":"zip"}}],"country":"United States","state":"South Carolina","county":"Jasper County","otherGeospatial":"Brighton Quadrangle, Pineland Quadrangle","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -81.14295959472656,\n              32.146257633327764\n            ],\n            [\n              -81.1007308959961,\n              32.146257633327764\n            ],\n            [\n              -81.1007308959961,\n              32.222967176706305\n            ],\n            [\n              -81.14295959472656,\n              32.222967176706305\n            ],\n            [\n              -81.14295959472656,\n              32.146257633327764\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","contact":"<p><a href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/fbgc\" data-mce-href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/fbgc\">Florence Bascom Geoscience Center</a><br>U.S. Geological Survey<br>926A National Center<br>12201 Sunrise Valley Drive<br>Reston, VA</p>","tableOfContents":"<ul><li>Description of Map Units (Sheet 1)</li><li>Explanation of Map Symbols (Sheet 1)</li><li>Introduction (Sheet 2)</li><li>Previous Work (Sheet 2)</li><li>Summary of Map Units (Sheet 2)</li><li>Discussion (Sheet 2)</li><li>Acknowledgments (Sheet 2)</li><li>References Cited (Sheet 2)</li></ul>","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"publishedDate":"2019-03-28","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2019-03-28","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Swezey, Christopher S. 0000-0003-4019-9264 cswezey@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4019-9264","contributorId":173033,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Swezey","given":"Christopher","email":"cswezey@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[{"id":40020,"text":"Florence Bascom Geoscience Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":241,"text":"Eastern Energy Resources Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":243,"text":"Eastern Geology and Paleoclimate Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":756708,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Schultz, Arthur P.","contributorId":212837,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Schultz","given":"Arthur P.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":756710,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Doar, William R.

Techniques capable of identifying multiple prey species from fish stomach contents have been developed. In this study, a multi-locus metabarcoding approach was used to identify fish and invertebrate prey in stomach samples of <i>Ictalurus furcatus</i> (blue catfish), which were collected from two sites on the Mattawomen Creek and Nanjemoy Creek in Maryland.</p><p>The mitochondrial 12S (mt12S) and mitochondrial 16S (mt16S) gene regions were sequenced and compared. First, a mock sample for each gene region was created with the pooled polymerase chain reaction product of known fish species, and quantities of the sample were used to determine efficacy of the amplicon. Results varied between gene regions analyzed. Then, when using the mt12S primers, next-generation sequencing determined that nine fish species were found at levels greater than 1 percent of the diet of blue catfish. The most common species were <i>Perca flavescens</i> (yellow perch) and <i>Cyprinus carpio</i> (common carp). The mt16S gene region analyses found 10 fish species at greater than 1 percent of the diet, which primarily included <i>Orconectes limosus</i> (spinycheek crayfish), <i>Alosa pseudoharengus</i> (alewife), and yellow perch. Partially digested eggs were identified using next-generation sequencing of yellow perch in two of the stomach samples, and a TaqMan® quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assay was developed to more economically identify egg species in the future.</p><p>The yellow-perch-specific TaqMan® qPCR assay was tested using primers that were developed to detect a 154-base-pair amplicon in the mitochondrial control region. Consumption of yellow perch eggs indicates that blue catfish could potentially negatively affect young-of-year recruitment of this native sportfish. Analyses of two gene regions helped confirm the major prey of the fish sampled and allowed identification of fish species as prey that were not included in a database for the two gene regions. We concluded that the mitochondrial ribosomal-marker-based next-generation sequencing method is useful in determining the prey of fish species.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/ofr20191021","usgsCitation":"Iwanowicz, D.D., Schill, W.B., Sanders, L.R., Groves, T., and Groves, M.C., 2019, Establishing molecular methods to quantitatively profile gastric diet items of fish—Application to the invasive blue catfish (<i>Ictalurus furcatus</i>): U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 2019–1021, 15 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr20191021.","productDescription":"Report: vii, 15 p.; Appendix","numberOfPages":"27","onlineOnly":"Y","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","ipdsId":"IP-103768","costCenters":[{"id":365,"text":"Leetown Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":362344,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2019/1021/ofr20191021.pdf","text":"Report","size":"1.89 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"OFR 2019-1021"},{"id":362345,"rank":3,"type":{"id":3,"text":"Appendix"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2019/1021/ofr20191021_appendix.pdf","size":"660 KB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":362343,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2019/1021/coverthb2.jpg"}],"country":"United States","otherGeospatial":"Potomac River","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -77.26272583007812,\n              38.396029684120315\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.12059020996094,\n              38.396029684120315\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.12059020996094,\n              38.634036452919226\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.26272583007812,\n              38.634036452919226\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.26272583007812,\n              38.396029684120315\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","contact":"<p>Director, <a href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/eesc\" data-mce-href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/eesc\">Eastern Ecological Science Center</a><br>U.S. Geological Survey<br>11649 Leetown Road<br>Kearneysville, WV 25430</p>","tableOfContents":"<ul><li>Abstract</li><li>Introduction</li><li>Methods</li><li>Results</li><li>Discussion</li><li>References Cited</li><li>Appendix 1.
