Although studies in freshwater ecosystems have received recent attention, research has rarely considered the potential trade-offs between protecting different dimensions of biodiversity and the ecological processes that maintain diversity. We provide the first systematic prioritization for freshwaters (focusing on the highly threatened and globally distinct fish fauna of the Lower Colorado River Basin, USA) simultaneously considering scenarios of: taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic diversity; contemporary threats to biodiversity (including interactions with nonnative species); and future climate change and human population growth. There was 75% congruence between areas of highest conservation priority for different aspects of biodiversity, suggesting that conservation efforts can concurrently achieve strong complementarity among all types of diversity. However, sizable fractions of the landscape were incongruent across conservation priorities for different diversity scenarios, underscoring the importance of considering multiple dimensions of biodiversity and highlighting catchments that contribute disproportionately to taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic diversity in the region. Regions of projected human population growth were not concordant with conservation priorities; however, higher human population abundance will likely have indirect effects on native biodiversity by increasing demand for water. This will come in direct conflict with projected reductions in precipitation and warmer temperatures, which have substantial overlap with regions of high contemporary diversity. Native and endemic fishes in arid ecosystems are critically endangered by both current and future threats, but our results highlight the use of systematic conservation planning for the optimal allocation of limited resources that incorporates multiple and complementary conservation values describing taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic diversity.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Ecological Society of America","doi":"10.1890/11-0599.1","usgsCitation":"Strecker, A.L., Olden, J., Whittier, J.B., and Paukert, C.P., 2011, Defining conservation priorities for freshwater fishes according to taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic diversity: Ecological Applications, v. 21, no. 8, p. 3002-3013, https://doi.org/10.1890/11-0599.1.","productDescription":"12 p.","startPage":"3002","endPage":"3013","costCenters":[{"id":198,"text":"Coop Res Unit Atlanta","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":411,"text":"National Climate Change and Wildlife Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":242879,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"21","issue":"8","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5059fe37e4b0c8380cd4ebcf","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Strecker, A.

The monoclinic tridymite occurs with quartz paramorphs after tridymite and K-feldspar in a microcrystalline groundmass of devitrified glass and Fe-rich smectite. Electron-microprobe analyses revealed that the tridymite and quartz paramorphs after tridymite contain different amounts of chemical impurities. Inspection by SEM showed that the tridymite crystal surfaces are smooth, whereas the quartz paramorphs contain irregular tabular voids. These voids may represent microporosity formed by volume decrease in the presence of fluid during transformation from tridymite to quartz, or skeletal growth in the original tridymite. Cristobalite locally rims spherulites within the same drill core interval. The occurrences of tridymite and cristobalite appear to be restricted to the thickest clast-rich impact melt body in the core at 1402.02–1407.49 m depth.

Field observations in layered sedimentary bedrock in southwestern Wisconsin, USA, provide evidence of a stable, laterally extensive perched aquifer. Data from a densely instrumented field site show a perched aquifer in shallow dolomite, underlain by a shale‐and‐dolomite aquitard approximately 25 m thick, which is in turn underlain by sandstone containing a 30‐m‐thick unsaturated zone above a regional aquifer. Heads in water supply wells indicate that perched conditions extend at least several kilometers into hillsides, which is consistent with published modeling studies. Observations of unsaturated conditions in the sandstone over a 4‐year period, historical development of the perched aquifer, and perennial flow from upland springs emanating from the shallow dolomite suggest that perched groundwater is a stable hydrogeologic feature under current climate conditions. Water‐table hydrographs exhibit apparent differences in the amount and timing of recharge to the perched and regional flow systems; steep hydraulic gradients and tritium and chloride concentrations suggest there is limited hydraulic connection between the two. Recognition and characterization of perched flow systems have practical importance because their groundwater flow and transport pathways may differ significantly from those in underlying flow systems. Construction of multi‐aquifer wells and groundwater withdrawal in perched systems can further alter such pathways.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"National Groundwater Association","doi":"10.1111/j.1745-6584.2010.00736.x","issn":"0017467X","usgsCitation":"Carter, J., Gotkowitz, M., and Anderson, M.P., 2011, Field verification of stable perched groundwater in layered bedrock uplands: Ground Water, v. 49, no. 3, p. 383-392, https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1745-6584.2010.00736.x.","productDescription":"10 p.","startPage":"383","endPage":"392","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":243039,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Wisconsin","otherGeospatial":"Southwestern Wisconsin","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -90.68115234375,\n              42.53689200787315\n            ],\n            [\n              -88.76953125,\n              42.50450285299051\n            ],\n            [\n              -88.87939453125,\n              43.197167282501276\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.033203125,\n              43.50075243569041\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.7470703125,\n              43.50075243569041\n            ],\n            [\n              -91.20849609375,\n              43.46886761482925\n            ],\n            [\n              -91.12060546875,\n              43.24520272203356\n            ],\n            [\n              -91.14257812499999,\n              43.11702412135048\n            ],\n            [\n              -91.12060546875,\n              42.74701217318067\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.68115234375,\n              42.53689200787315\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"49","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2011-04-25","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a0fa0e4b0c8380cd53966","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Carter, J.T.","contributorId":24587,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Carter","given":"J.T.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":449965,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Gotkowitz, M.B.","contributorId":37537,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Gotkowitz","given":"M.B.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":449966,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Anderson, Marilyn P.","contributorId":102970,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Anderson","given":"Marilyn","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":449967,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Natural resource managers, policy makers, and stakeholders rely on science to provide timely and accurate management recommendations. However, the time necessary to untangle the complexities of interactions within ecosystems is often far greater than the time available to make management decisions. One method of coping with this problem is multimodel inference. Multimodel inference assesses uncertainty by calculating likelihoods among multiple competing hypotheses, but multimodel inference results are often equivocal. Despite this, there may be pressure for ecologists to provide management recommendations regardless of the strength of their study&rsquo;s inference. We reviewed papers in the Journal of Wildlife Management (JWM) and the journal Conservation Biology (CB) to quantify the prevalence of multimodel inference approaches, the resulting inference (weak versus strong), and how authors dealt with the uncertainty. Thirty-eight percent and 14%, respectively, of articles in the JWM and CB used multimodel inference approaches. Strong inference was rarely observed, with only 7% of JWM and 20% of CB articles resulting in strong inference. We found the majority of weak inference papers in both journals (59%) gave specific management recommendations. Model selection uncertainty was ignored in most recommendations for management. We suggest that adaptive management is an ideal method to resolve uncertainty when research results in weak inference.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.jenvman.2010.10.012","issn":"03014797","usgsCitation":"Rehme, S., Powell, L., and Allen, C.R., 2011, Multimodel inference and adaptive management: Journal of Environmental Management, v. 92, no. 5, p. 1360-1364, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvman.2010.10.012.","startPage":"1360","endPage":"1364","numberOfPages":"5","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-021299","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":215535,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvman.2010.10.012"},{"id":243346,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"92","issue":"5","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a6031e4b0c8380cd71363","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Rehme, S.E.","contributorId":9890,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rehme","given":"S.E.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":448936,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Powell, L.A.","contributorId":51262,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Powell","given":"L.A.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":448937,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Allen, Craig R. 0000-0001-8655-8272 allencr@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8655-8272","contributorId":1979,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Allen","given":"Craig","email":"allencr@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":198,"text":"Coop Res Unit Atlanta","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":448938,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

We developed an extension of Royle and Kéry's (2007) single species model to estimate simultaneously temporal changes in probabilities of detection, occupancy, colonization, extinction, and species turnover using data on calling anuran amphibians, collected from 2002 to 2006 in the Lower Mississippi Alluvial Valley of Louisiana, USA. During our 5‐year study, estimates of occurrence probabilities declined for all 12 species detected. These declines occurred primarily in conjunction with variation in estimates of local extinction probabilities (cajun chorus frog [</span><i>Pseudacris fouquettei</i><span>], spring peeper [</span><i>P. crucifer</i><span>], northern cricket frog [</span><i>Acris crepitans</i><span>], Cope's gray treefrog [</span><i>Hyla chrysoscelis</i><span>], green treefrog [</span><i>H. cinerea</i><span>], squirrel treefrog [</span><i>H. squirella</i><span>], southern leopard frog [</span><i>Lithobates sphenocephalus</i><span>], bronze frog [</span><i>L. clamitans</i><span>], American bullfrog [</span><i>L. catesbeianus</i><span>], and Fowler's toad [</span><i>Anaxyrus fowleri</i><span>]). For 2 species (eastern narrow‐mouthed toad [</span><i>Gastrophryne carolinensis</i><span>] and Gulf Coast toad [</span><i>Incilius nebulifer</i><span>]), declines in occupancy appeared to be a consequence of both increased local extinction and decreased colonization events. The eastern narrow‐mouthed toad experienced a 2.5‐fold increase in estimates of occupancy in 2004, possibly because of the high amount of rainfall received during that year, along with a decrease in extinction and increase in colonization of new sites between 2003 and 2004. Our model can be incorporated into monitoring programs to estimate simultaneously the occupancy dynamics for multiple species that show similar responses to ecological conditions. It will likely be an important asset for those monitoring programs that employ the same methods to sample assemblages of ecologically similar species, including those that are rare. By combining information from multiple species to decrease the variance on estimates of individual species, our results are advantageous compared to single‐species models. This feature enables managers and researchers to use an entire community, rather than just one species, as an ecological indicator in monitoring programs.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"The Wildlife Society","doi":"10.1002/jwmg.98","issn":"0022541X","usgsCitation":"Miller, M., Pearlstine, E., Dorazio, R., and Mazzotti, F., 2011, Occupancy and abundance of wintering birds in a dynamic agricultural landscape: Journal of Wildlife Management, v. 75, no. 4, p. 751-761, https://doi.org/10.1002/jwmg.98.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"751","endPage":"761","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":243760,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":215924,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1002/jwmg.97"}],"volume":"75","issue":"4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2011-05-25","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a6b17e4b0c8380cd744f2","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Miller, M.W.","contributorId":57012,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Miller","given":"M.W.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":447017,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Pearlstine, E.V.","contributorId":15857,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Pearlstine","given":"E.V.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":447015,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Dorazio, Robert 0000-0003-2663-0468 bob_dorazio@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2663-0468","contributorId":172151,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Dorazio","given":"Robert","email":"bob_dorazio@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":5051,"text":"FLWSC-Orlando","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":17705,"text":"Wetland and Aquatic Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":447016,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Mazzotti, F.J.","contributorId":10136,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Mazzotti","given":"F.J.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":447014,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

Rare earth elements, especially the middle REE (MREE), decrease from centers to rims of sphene phenocrysts along with Zr, demonstrating the effect of progressive sphene fractionation.

Glacier Creek is a small, glacially fed stream which enters the estuary tangentially near Girdwood, Alaska. Trenches and daily sedimentation measurements were made in a mudflat along the fluvio–estuarine transition of Glacier Creek during several summers since 2003. Each year, the flats appear to erode during the winter and then accrete vertically in the spring and summer. In each of the years studied, tidal laminae in vertically thickening and thinning laminae bundles were deposited by twice daily tides in neap–spring tidal cycles. In 2004, bundles of thickening and thinning laminae couplets were noted in trenches cut into the flats. Five laminae bundles alternated between thicker and thinner bundles, corresponding to the perigean (high spring) and apogean (low spring) tides. Well‐preserved apogean–perigean cycles have rarely been documented in modern tidal flat sediments. At this location, vertical accretion of tidal rhythmites with well‐developed neap–spring cyclicity is possible because of the near‐complete removal of the flat from the previous year, which creates accommodation space for vertical accretion without significant reworking. Macrotidal conditions, no reworking by infaunal invertebrates, protection from the main tidal channel by a gravel bar and protection from storm waves and fluvial erosion by a recess in the sedge marsh that surrounds the flats all aid in preservation of rhythmites during aggradation. The position of the flats relative to tidal range allows for accumulation of complete spring cycles and incomplete neap cycles. In the summer of 2004, apogee and perigee were closely aligned with the new and full moons, resulting in successive strong perigee and apogee tides which probably aided in the accumulation of successive thick–thin spring cycles encoding the apogean and perigean tidal cycle. The apogean–perigean signal was not observed in subsequent years.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/j.1365-3091.2010.01220.x","issn":"00370746","usgsCitation":"Greb, S., Archer, A., and Deboer, D., 2011, Apogean-perigean signals encoded in tidal flats at the fluvio-estuarine transition of Glacier Creek, Turnagain Arm, Alaska; implications for ancient tidal rhythmites: Sedimentology, v. 58, no. 6, p. 1434-1452, https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-3091.2010.01220.x.","productDescription":"19 p.","startPage":"1434","endPage":"1452","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":243377,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":215565,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-3091.2010.01220.x"}],"country":"United States","state":"Alaska","otherGeospatial":"Glacier Creek, Turnagain Arm","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -152.29248046875,\n              60.09771842541544\n            ],\n            [\n              -147.94189453125,\n              60.09771842541544\n            ],\n            [\n              -147.94189453125,\n              62.155240711732425\n            ],\n            [\n              -152.29248046875,\n              62.155240711732425\n            ],\n            [\n              -152.29248046875,\n              60.09771842541544\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"58","issue":"6","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2011-02-15","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5059ec72e4b0c8380cd49296","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Greb, S.F.","contributorId":48294,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Greb","given":"S.F.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":446733,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Archer, A.W.","contributorId":8620,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Archer","given":"A.W.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":446731,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Deboer, D.G.","contributorId":29658,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Deboer","given":"D.G.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":446732,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Stable isotope analysis has been developed as a method for assessing bird diets that is not biased by digestibility.

We compared these model results with probability distributions from conventional diet samples (pellets and food remains) from the same colonies and time periods. Relative to the stable isotope estimates, conventional analysis often overestimated the contributions of birds and small mammals to gull diets and often underestimated the contributions of fish and zooplankton. Both methods gave similar estimates for the contributions of scavenged caribou, miscellaneous marine foods, and garbage to diets. Pellets and food remains therefore may be useful for assessing the importance of garbage relative to certain other foods in diets of gulls and similar birds, but are clearly inappropriate for estimating the potential impact of gulls on birds, small mammals, or fish. However, conventional samples provide more species-level information than stable isotope analysis, so a combined approach would be most useful for diet analysis and assessing a predator's impact on particular prey groups.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/j.1557-9263.2011.00333.x","issn":"02738570","usgsCitation":"Weiser, E., and Powell, A.N., 2011, Evaluating gull diets: A comparison of conventional methods and stable isotope analysis: Journal of Field Ornithology, v. 82, no. 3, p. 297-310, https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1557-9263.2011.00333.x.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"297","endPage":"310","numberOfPages":"14","ipdsId":"IP-021219","costCenters":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":244660,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":216772,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1557-9263.2011.00333.x"}],"volume":"82","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2011-08-24","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a0be5e4b0c8380cd5291e","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Weiser, Emily L.","contributorId":171678,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Weiser","given":"Emily L.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":445672,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Powell, Abby N. 0000-0002-9783-134X abby_powell@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9783-134X","contributorId":171426,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Powell","given":"Abby","email":"abby_powell@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"N.","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":445673,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

The last major rhyolite eruption before that at Chaitén was the largest volcanic eruption in the twentieth century, at Novarupta volcano, Alaska, in 1912. Because of the historically rare and explosive nature of rhyolite eruptions and because of the surprisingly short warning before the eruption of the Chaitén volcano, any information about the workings of the magmatic system at Chaitén, and rhyolitic systems in general, is important from both the scientific and hazard perspectives. Here we present surface deformation data related to the Chaitén eruption based on radar interferometry observations from the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) DAICHI (ALOS) satellite. The data on this explosive rhyolite eruption indicate that the rapid ascent of rhyolite occurred through dyking and that melt segregation and magma storage were controlled by existing faults.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Nature","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","doi":"10.1038/nature10541","issn":"00280836","usgsCitation":"Wicks, C., De La, L.J., Lara, L., and Lowenstern, J., 2011, The role of dyking and fault control in the rapid onset of eruption at Chaitén Volcano, Chile: Nature, v. 478, no. 7369, p. 374-377, https://doi.org/10.1038/nature10541.","productDescription":"4 p.","startPage":"374","endPage":"377","costCenters":[{"id":237,"text":"Earthquake Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":216795,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1038/nature10541"},{"id":244687,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Chile","otherGeospatial":"Chait�n Volcano","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -72.661085,-42.847669 ], [ -72.661085,-42.827666 ], [ -72.641077,-42.827666 ], [ -72.641077,-42.847669 ], [ -72.661085,-42.847669 ] ] ] } } ] }","volume":"478","issue":"7369","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2011-10-19","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505baf68e4b08c986b324784","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Wicks, Charles 0000-0002-0809-1328","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0809-1328","contributorId":9023,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wicks","given":"Charles","affiliations":[{"id":237,"text":"Earthquake Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":445240,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"De La, Llera J.

Kudzu (</span><i>Pueraria montana</i><span>&nbsp;(Lour.)

Here, we review a large body of primary scientific and historic records spanning thousands of years to characterize the complex relationships among kudzu, its natural enemies, and humans, and provide a synthesis and conceptual model relevant to the ecology and management of quasi-wild invasive species. We documented over 350, mostly insect, natural enemy species and their impacts on kudzu in its native East Asian range. These natural enemies play a minor role in limiting kudzu in its native range, rarely generating severe impacts on populations of wild kudzu. We identified a number of significant influences of humans including dispersal, diverse cultural selection, and facilitation through disturbances, which catalyzed the expansion and exuberance of kudzu. On the other hand, harvest by humans appears to be the major control mechanism in its native areas. Humans thus have a complex relationship with kudzu. They have acted as both friend and foe, affecting the distribution and abundance of kudzu in ways that vary across its range and over time. Our conceptual model of kudzu emphasizes the importance of multiple human dimensions in shaping the biogeography of a species and illustrates how kudzu and other quasi-wild species are more likely to be successful invaders.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer Link","doi":"10.1007/s10530-011-0042-7","issn":"13873547","usgsCitation":"Li, Z., Dong, Q., Albright, T.P., and Guo, Q., 2011, Natural and human dimensions of a quasi-wild species: The case of kudzu: Biological Invasions, v. 13, no. 10, p. 2167-2179, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10530-011-0042-7.","productDescription":"13 p.","startPage":"2167","endPage":"2179","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":244494,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":216613,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10530-011-0042-7"}],"volume":"13","issue":"10","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2011-09-06","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a62d7e4b0c8380cd7213a","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Li, Z.","contributorId":29160,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Li","given":"Z.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":445195,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Dong, Q.","contributorId":39152,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Dong","given":"Q.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":445196,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Albright, Thomas P.","contributorId":78114,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Albright","given":"Thomas","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":445198,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Guo, Q.","contributorId":67039,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Guo","given":"Q.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":445197,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

Removal of a host species is a potential but rarely possible way of discovering the importance of that species to the dynamics of the disease. This study presents the results of a 12-year programme aimed at controlling brucellosis in cattle, sheep and goats and the cascading impacts on brucellosis in a sympatric population of red deer (Cervus elaphus) in the Boumort National Game Reserve (BNGR; NE Spain). From February 1998 to December 2009, local veterinary agencies tested over 36 180 individual blood samples from cattle, 296 482 from sheep and goats and 1047 from red deer in the study area. All seropositive livestock were removed annually. From 2006 to 2009 brucellosis was not detected in cattle and in 2009 only one of 97 red deer tested was found to be positive. The surveillance and removal of positive domestic animals coincided with a significant decrease in the prevalence of brucellosis in red deer. Our results suggest that red deer may not be able to maintain brucellosis in this region independently of cattle, sheep or goats, and that continued efforts to control disease in livestock may lead to the eventual eradication of brucellosis in red deer in the area.","language":"English","publisher":"Cambridge University Press","doi":"10.1017/S0950268811000951","issn":"09502688","usgsCitation":"Serrano, E., Cross, P., Beneria, M., Ficapal, A., Curia, J., Marco, X., Lavin, S., and Marco, I., 2011, Decreasing prevalence of brucellosis in red deer through efforts to control disease in livestock: Epidemiology and Infection, v. 139, no. 10, p. 1626-1630, https://doi.org/10.1017/S0950268811000951.","productDescription":"5 p.","startPage":"1626","endPage":"1630","numberOfPages":"5","costCenters":[{"id":481,"text":"Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":34983,"text":"Contaminant Biology Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":475183,"rank":10000,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1017/s0950268811000951","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":244398,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":216521,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1017/S0950268811000951"}],"country":"Spain","otherGeospatial":"Boumort National Game Reserve","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -18.17,27.64 ], [ -18.17,43.79 ], [ 4.33,43.79 ], [ 4.33,27.64 ], [ -18.17,27.64 ] ] ] } } ] }","volume":"139","issue":"10","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2011-05-31","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5059fe18e4b0c8380cd4eb05","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Serrano, E.","contributorId":45144,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Serrano","given":"E.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444857,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Cross, P.C.","contributorId":48141,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Cross","given":"P.C.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444858,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Beneria, M.","contributorId":68560,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Beneria","given":"M.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444859,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Ficapal, A.","contributorId":100645,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ficapal","given":"A.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444862,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Curia, J.","contributorId":18203,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Curia","given":"J.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444856,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Marco, X.","contributorId":71795,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Marco","given":"X.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444860,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Lavin, S.","contributorId":107127,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lavin","given":"S.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444863,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Marco, I.","contributorId":92890,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Marco","given":"I.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444861,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8}]}}

A major concern is the elevated concentration of long-lived 226Ra (half-life = 1,600 years) inherited from the processed phosphate rock. Knowledge of the abundance and mode-of-occurrence of radium (Ra) in PG is critical for accurate prediction of Ra leachability and radon (Rn) emanation, and for prediction of radiation-exposure pathways to workers and to the public. The mean (??SD) of 226Ra concentrations in ten samples of Jordan PG is 601 ?? 98 Bq/kg, which falls near the midrange of values reported for PG samples collected worldwide. Jordan PG generally shows no analytically significant enrichment (&lt; 10%) of 226Ra in the finer (&lt; 53 ??m) grain size fraction. Phosphogypsum samples collected from two industrial sites with different sources of phosphate rock feedstock show consistent differences in concentration of 226Ra and rare earth elements, and also consistent trends of enrichment in these elements with increasing age of PG. Water-insoluble residues from Jordan PG constitute &lt;10% of PG mass but contain 30-65% of the 226Ra. 226Ra correlates closely with Ba in the water-insoluble residues. Uniformly tiny (&lt; 10 ??m) grains of barite (barium sulfate) observed with scanning electron microscopy have crystal morphologies that indicate their formation during the wet process. Barite is a well-documented and efficient scavenger of Ra from solution and is also very insoluble in water and mineral acids. Radium-bearing barite in PG influences the environmental mobility of radium and the radiation-exposure pathways near PG stockpiles. ?? 2010 US Government.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Environmental Geochemistry and Health","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","doi":"10.1007/s10653-010-9328-4","issn":"02694042","usgsCitation":"Zielinski, R.A., Al-Hwaiti, M.S., Budahn, J., and Ranville, J., 2011, Radionuclides, trace elements, and radium residence in phosphogypsum of Jordan: Environmental Geochemistry and Health, v. 33, no. 2, p. 149-165, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10653-010-9328-4.","startPage":"149","endPage":"165","numberOfPages":"17","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":216877,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10653-010-9328-4"},{"id":244775,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"33","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2010-07-11","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a9423e4b0c8380cd81221","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Zielinski, R.

Juvenile Chinook salmon inhabit the sound from their late estuarine residence and early marine transition to their first year at sea. We measured the density, origin, and size of marked (known hatchery) and unmarked (majority naturally spawned) juveniles by means of monthly surface trawls at six river mouth estuaries in Puget Sound and the areas in between. Juvenile Chinook salmon were present in all months sampled (April–November). Unmarked fish in the northern portion of the study area showed broader seasonal distributions of density than did either marked fish in all areas or unmarked fish in the central and southern portions of the sound. Despite these temporal differences, the densities of marked fish appeared to drive most of the total density estimates across space and time. Genetic analysis and coded wire tag data provided us with documented individuals from at least 16 source populations and indicated that movement patterns and apparent residence time were, in part, a function of natal location and time passed since the release of these fish from hatcheries. Unmarked fish tended to be smaller than marked fish and had broader length frequency distributions. The lengths of unmarked fish were negatively related to the density of both marked and unmarked Chinook salmon, but those of marked fish were not. These results indicate more extensive use of estuarine environments by wild than by hatchery juvenile Chinook salmon as well as differential use (e.g., rearing and migration) of various geographic regions of greater Puget Sound by juvenile Chinook salmon in general. In addition, the results for hatchery‐generated timing, density, and length differences have implications for the biological interactions between hatchery and wild fish throughout Puget Sound.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"American Fisheries Society","doi":"10.1080/00028487.2010.550253","usgsCitation":"Rice, C.A., Greene, C., Moran, P., Teel, D., Kuligowski, D., Reisenbichler, R.R., Beamer, E., Karr, J., and Fresh, K., 2011, Abundance, stock origin, and length of marked and unmarked juvenile Chinook salmon in the surface waters of greater Puget Sound: Transactions of the American Fisheries Society, v. 140, no. 1, p. 170-189, https://doi.org/10.1080/00028487.2010.550253.","startPage":"170","endPage":"189","numberOfPages":"20","costCenters":[{"id":654,"text":"Western Fisheries Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":244772,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":378341,"rank":2,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://afspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1080/00028487.2010.550253"}],"country":"United States","state":"Washington","otherGeospatial":"Puget Sound","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -123.17321777343749,\n              46.99524110694593\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.1514892578125,\n              46.99524110694593\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.1514892578125,\n              48.93693495409401\n            ],\n            [\n              -123.17321777343749,\n              48.93693495409401\n            ],\n            [\n              -123.17321777343749,\n              46.99524110694593\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"140","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2011-03-07","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5059e660e4b0c8380cd47399","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Rice, C.

This study quantifies the loading of 58 inorganic constituents (nutrients to rare earth elements) from WWTP discharges relative to upstream landscape-based sources. Stream assimilation capacity was evaluated by Lagrangian sampling, using flow velocities determined from tracer experiments to track the same parcel of water as it moved downstream. Boulder Creek, Colorado and Fourmile Creek, Iowa, representing two different geologic and hydrologic landscapes, were sampled under low-flow conditions in the summer and spring. One-half of the constituents had greater loads from the WWTP effluents than the upstream drainages, and once introduced into the streams, dilution was the predominant assimilation mechanism. Only ammonium and bismuth had significant decreases in mass load downstream from the WWTPs during all samplings.

Using ultrasonic telemetry, we identified spatial and temporal distribution patterns by tracking 36 adult lake trout (1,137 relocations). Lake trout rarely occupied depths greater than 30 m and were commonly located in the upper hypolimnion directly below the metalimnion during thermal stratification. After breakdown of themetalimnion in the fall, lake trout primarily aggregated at two spawning sites. Lake trout population characteristics were similar to those of populations within the species' native range. However, lake trout in Lake McDonald exhibited lower total annual mortality (13.2%), latermaturity (age 12 formales, age 15 for females), lower body condition, and slower growth than are typically observed in the southern extent of their range. These results will be useful in determining where to target suppression activities (e.g., gillnetting, trap-netting, or electrofishing) and in evaluating responses to suppression efforts.

We assessed the spatial and temporal variation in fish assemblage structure in five intermittent, adventitious northwestern Great Plains streams representing a gradient of watershed areas. Fish assemblages and abiotic conditions varied more spatially than temporally. The most important variables explaining fish assemblage structure were longitudinal position and the proportion of fine substrates. The proportion of fine substrates increased proceeding upstream, approaching 100% in all five streams, and species richness declined upstream with increasing fine substrates. High levels of fine substrate in the upper reaches appeared to limit the distribution of obligate lithophilic fish species to reaches further downstream. Species richness and substrates were similar among all five streams at the lowermost and uppermost sites. However, in the middle reaches, species richness increased, the amount of fine substrate decreased, and connectivity increased as watershed area increased. Season and some dimensions of habitat (including thalweg depth, absolute distance to the main-stem river, and watershed size) were not essential in explaining the variation in fish assemblages. Fish species richness varied more temporally than overall fish assemblage structure did because common species were consistently abundant across seasons, whereas rare species were sometimes absent or perhaps not detected by sampling. The similarity in our results among five streams varying in watershed size and those from other studies supports the generalization that spatial variation exceeds temporal variation in the fish assemblages of prairie and warmwater streams. Furthermore, given longitudinal position, substrate, and stream size, general predictions regarding fish assemblage structure and function in prairie streams are possible. ??

The ultramafic rocks in this region are comprised mainly of serpentinites and talc-magnesite rocks with average As concentration of 93ppm and a range from 1 to 1105ppm. By comparison, the other main lithologies in the study area are depleted in As relative to the ultramafics: the average As concentration in metabasaltic rocks is 4.1ppm with a range of &lt;1-69ppm, and mean As concentration in meta-sedimentary phyllites and schists is 22ppm with a range of &lt;1-190ppm. In the ultramafic rocks, As is correlated with Sb and light rare earth elements, indicating that As was introduced to the ultramafic rocks during metasomatism by fluids derived from the subducting slab. Evidence from sequential chemical extraction, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and stoichiometric analysis indicates that the majority of the As is located in antigorite and magnesite (MgCO3) with lesser amounts in magnetite (Fe3O4). Hydrochemistry of monitoring wells drilled into fractured ultramafic rock in a groundwater recharge area with no anthropogenic As source reveals above background As (2-9??g/L) and an Mg-HCO3 hydrochemical signature that reflects dissolution of antigorite and magnesite, confirming that As in groundwater can be derived from ultramafic rock dissolution. Arsenic mobility in groundwater affected by ultramafic rock dissolution may be enhanced by alkaline pH values and relatively high HCO3- concentrations. ?? 2011 Elsevier Ltd.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Applied Geochemistry","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","doi":"10.1016/j.apgeochem.2011.01.004","issn":"08832927","usgsCitation":"Ryan, P., Kim, J., Wall, A., Moen, J., Corenthal, L., Chow, D., Sullivan, C., and Bright, K., 2011, Ultramafic-derived arsenic in a fractured bedrock aquifer: Applied Geochemistry, v. 26, no. 4, p. 444-457, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apgeochem.2011.01.004.","startPage":"444","endPage":"457","numberOfPages":"14","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":214328,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.apgeochem.2011.01.004"},{"id":242045,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"26","issue":"4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505bbc02e4b08c986b32898c","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Ryan, P.C.","contributorId":10240,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ryan","given":"P.C.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":443238,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Kim, J.","contributorId":9813,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kim","given":"J.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":443237,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Wall, A.J.","contributorId":8686,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wall","given":"A.J.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":443236,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Moen, J.C.","contributorId":53181,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Moen","given":"J.C.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":443240,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Corenthal, L.G.","contributorId":61658,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Corenthal","given":"L.G.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":443242,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Chow, D.R.","contributorId":62847,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Chow","given":"D.R.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":443243,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Sullivan, C.M.","contributorId":26530,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Sullivan","given":"C.M.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":443239,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Bright, K.S.","contributorId":55222,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bright","given":"K.S.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":443241,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8}]}}

A tragic instance of this is the 22 February 2011 <i>M<sub>w</sub></i> 6.3 Christchurch aftershock in New Zealand, which caused more than 100 deaths while the 2010 <i>M<sub>w</sub></i> 7.1 Canterbury mainshock did not cause a single fatality (Figure 1). Therefore, substantial efforts have been directed toward understanding the generation mechanisms of aftershocks as well as mitigating hazards due to aftershocks. Among these efforts are the prediction of strong aftershocks, earthquake early warning, and aftershock probability assessment. Zhang <i>et al.</i> (1999) reported a successful case of strong aftershock prediction with precursory data such as changes in seismicity pattern, variation of b-value, and geomagnetic anomalies. However, official reports of such successful predictions in geophysical journals are extremely rare, implying that deterministic prediction of potentially damaging aftershocks is not necessarily more scientifically feasible than prediction of mainshocks.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Seismological Research Letters","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisher":"GeoScienceWorld","publisherLocation":"Alexandria, VA","doi":"10.1785/gssrl.82.6.800","issn":"08950695","usgsCitation":"Zhan, Z., Jin, B., Wei, S., and Graves, R.W., 2011, Coulomb stress change sensitivity due to variability in mainshock source models and receiving fault parameters: A case study of the 2010-2011 Christchurch, New Zealand, earthquakes: Seismological Research Letters, v. 82, no. 6, p. 800-814, https://doi.org/10.1785/gssrl.82.6.800.","productDescription":"15 p.","startPage":"800","endPage":"814","numberOfPages":"15","costCenters":[{"id":234,"text":"Earthquake Hazards Program","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":237,"text":"Earthquake Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":241250,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":213605,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1785/gssrl.82.6.800"}],"country":"New Zealand","city":"Christchurch","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ 172.81,-43.63 ], [ 172.81,-43.39 ], [ 172.39,-43.39 ], [ 172.39,-43.63 ], [ 172.81,-43.63 ] ] ] } } ] }","volume":"82","issue":"6","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2011-11-01","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5059fc84e4b0c8380cd4e2c2","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Zhan, Zhongwen","contributorId":11491,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Zhan","given":"Zhongwen","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":436530,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Jin, Bikai","contributorId":107999,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Jin","given":"Bikai","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":436532,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Wei, Shengji","contributorId":31652,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wei","given":"Shengji","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":436531,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Graves, Robert W. rwgraves@usgs.gov","contributorId":3149,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Graves","given":"Robert","email":"rwgraves@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":234,"text":"Earthquake Hazards Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":436529,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

This technology has already been proven in laboratory and ocean settings to detect IP-reactive titanium-and rare-earth (REE) minerals such as ilmenite and monazite. By extension, minerals that weather and accumulate/concentrate by a similar mechanism, including gold, platinum, and diamonds, may be rapidly detected and mapped indirectly even when dispersed and covered with thick, inert sediment.

Here we show that the first major storm of the growing season strongly influences the population dynamics of three rare and endangered annual plant species in a coastal California (USA) ecosystem. In a field experiment we used moisture barriers and water addition to manipulate the timing and temperature associated with first major rains of the season. The three focal species showed two- to fivefold variation in per capita population growth rates between the different storm treatments, comparable to variation found in a prior experiment imposing eightfold differences in season-long precipitation. Variation in germination was a major demographic driver of how two of three species responded to the first rains. For one of these species, the timing of the storm was the most critical determinant of its germination, while the other showed enhanced germination with colder storm temperatures. The role of temperature was further supported by laboratory trials showing enhanced germination in cooler treatments. Our work suggests that, because of species-specific cues for demographic transitions such as germination, changes to discrete climate events may be as, if not more, important than changes to season-long variables.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Ecology","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","doi":"10.1890/11-0471.1","issn":"00129658","usgsCitation":"Levine, J., McEachern, A.K., and Cowan, C., 2011, Seasonal timing of first rain storms affects rare plant population dynamics: Ecology, v. 92, no. 12, p. 2236-2247, https://doi.org/10.1890/11-0471.1.","productDescription":"12 p.","startPage":"2236","endPage":"2247","numberOfPages":"12","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":213688,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1890/11-0471.1"},{"id":241339,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"92","issue":"12","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505b88dde4b08c986b316bee","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Levine, J.M.","contributorId":77748,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Levine","given":"J.M.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":436051,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"McEachern, A.
