Northward range expansion on the west side has been negligible for decades with few animals found north of Kamishak Bay, while northward expansion on the east side has been more pronounced in recent decades. The reasons for these contrasting distribution patterns are not certain. Possible explanations for lack of expansion on the west side included 1) poor sea otter habitat north of Kamishak Bay; 2) adequate habitat north of Kamishak Bay but no incentive for sea otters to move north because of abundant food in Kamishak Bay, and/or sea otters discouraged from moving north of Kamishak Bay; 3) seasonal ice formation; or 4) seasonal presence of killer whales. This project was designed to document current sea otter abundance and distribution in lower Cook Inlet, including seasonal variation, and evaluate drivers of habitat use and foraging conditions, including how these overlap with Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) Lease Sale blocks.&nbsp;</p><p>We found that the probability of sea otter presence in lower Cook Inlet was significantly related to depth and distance from shore with the highest probabilities of sea otter presence in areas ~7–8 kilometers (km) from shore in water ~20–30 meters (m) deep. Historical survey data suggest sea otter distribution has not changed dramatically since 2002, and while we detected significant seasonal changes including due to presence of heavy sea ice, the seasonal changes were modest and primarily related to locations with consistent winter ice formation on the west side of lower Cook Inlet. Overall, throughout the year, sea otters appeared to be utilizing most of the habitat within the 40-m depth contour on the east side of lower Cook Inlet, including Kachemak Bay. Sea otters on the west side reside largely within Kamishak Bay. Because of the shallow bathymetry of lower Cook Inlet, sea otters consistently occurred farther offshore than in many other areas of Alaska. The presence of sea otters, including females with pups, in these offshore waters indicates that sea otters can forage productively in these open water areas. Importantly, we documented that sea otters, including females with pups, occurred in most of the eastern BOEM lease blocks including the original Lease Sale 244 blocks 7064, 7114, 6162, 6310, 6360, 6410, 6458 and 6457. The relinquishments for these 7 leases were effective September 17, 2024: OCS-Y-02434 (block # 7064), OCS-Y-02435 (7114), OCS-Y-02436 (6162), OCS-Y-02438 (6357), OCS-Y-02442 (6407), OCS-Y02446 (6457), OCS-Y-02447 (6458) https://www.boem.gov/sites/default/files/documents/environment/Map%20of%20Active%20Leases%20 Cook%20Inlet%20OCS_0.pdf&nbsp;</p><p>Regarding differential northward expansion on the east and west side of lower Cook Inlet, we found that wind and water circulation patterns make winter sea ice more prominent on the west side, but this had minimal effects on sea otter distribution. In addition, although there have been observations of killer whale (<i>Orcinus orca</i>) predation on sea otters in Cook Inlet, we did not see behavioral or distributional evidence that it was prevalent enough to have strong effects on sea otter habitat use. Benthic surveys using a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) indicated that epibenthic substrate and biological community heterogeneity differed between areas with and without otters, suggesting that these factors may explain the current distribution of otters within lower Cook Inlet. However, ROV surveys cannot assess infaunal prey abundance, making assessments of the role of prey availability difficult. The existence of a healthy Pacific razor clam (<i>Siliqua patula</i>) fishery along western lower Cook Inlet along the Lake Clark coast north of Kamishak Bay suggests there may still be a resource base for eventual expansion of sea otters into this area.&nbsp;</p><p>Our shore-based forage observations indicated that sea otters exist near carrying capacity densities relative to nearshore prey resources. However, our distribution model suggests the bulk of the population lives offshore beyond our ability to observe their feeding activity. The fact that sea otters are a consistent presence in offshore areas suggests that prey resources in these areas were relatively abundant in comparison to nearshore prey resources, making foraging in offshore areas, with water depths of 0–40 m, energetically profitable. Prey types in these offshore areas of lower Cook Inlet likely included epifauna such as crabs and large urchins, in addition to infaunal clams based on the soft substrate habitat types that characterize lower Cook Inlet. &nbsp;</p><p>Collectively, our results suggest that sea otters occupy most areas of lower Cook Inlet with appropriate benthic habitat types and prey resources, which includes areas within BOEM Lease Sale blocks. With the exception of the Lake Clark coast, sea otters may be approaching a food- and habitat-limited distribution and carrying capacity, suggesting that the current status of sea otters in lower Cook Inlet is likely to remain similar in the absence of significant changes to prey, habitat, predation, or anthropogenic disturbance.&nbsp;</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM)","usgsCitation":"Monson, D., Kloecker, K.A., LaRoche, N., Power, C., Geissinger, L., Hasan, E., Jones, T., and Weitzman, B., 2025, Quantifying sea otter abundance, distribution, habitat use, and foraging intake in Cook Inlet, Alaska: OCS Study BOEM 2025-019, viii, 73 p.","productDescription":"viii, 73 p.","ipdsId":"IP-176659","costCenters":[{"id":65299,"text":"Alaska Science Center Ecosystems","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":502683,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":502670,"rank":1,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://espis.boem.gov/final%20reports/BOEM_2025-019.pdf"}],"country":"United States","state":"Alaska","otherGeospatial":"Cook Inlet","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -154.3155651543558,\n              60.79849962080206\n            ],\n            [\n              -154.3155651543558,\n              58.54443596757534\n            ],\n            [\n              -149.77946397731765,\n              58.54443596757534\n            ],\n            [\n              -149.77946397731765,\n              60.79849962080206\n            ],\n            [\n              -154.3155651543558,\n              60.79849962080206\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Monson, Daniel 0000-0002-4593-5673 dmonson@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4593-5673","contributorId":196670,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Monson","given":"Daniel","email":"dmonson@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":116,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology MFEB","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":959185,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Kloecker, Kimberly A. 0000-0002-2461-968X kkloecker@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2461-968X","contributorId":3442,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kloecker","given":"Kimberly","email":"kkloecker@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":116,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology MFEB","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":959186,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"LaRoche, Nicole 0000-0003-3737-5714","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3737-5714","contributorId":178395,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"LaRoche","given":"Nicole","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":18890,"text":"formerly USGS Western Ecological Research Center, Santa Cruz Field Station","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":959187,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Power, Collin","contributorId":303954,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Power","given":"Collin","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":6661,"text":"US Fish and Wildlife Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":959188,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Geissinger, Laura","contributorId":369804,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Geissinger","given":"Laura","affiliations":[{"id":25426,"text":"OSU","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":959189,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Hasan, Elizabeth","contributorId":369805,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hasan","given":"Elizabeth","affiliations":[{"id":6695,"text":"UAF","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":959190,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Jones, Tahzay","contributorId":369806,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Jones","given":"Tahzay","affiliations":[{"id":36245,"text":"NPS","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":959191,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Weitzman, Ben","contributorId":252838,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Weitzman","given":"Ben","affiliations":[{"id":36803,"text":"NOAA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":959192,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8}]}}

Between 2021 and 2023, The Geysers geothermal field in northern California was monitored with an array of continuous passive seismic sensors and annual repeat magnetotelluric (MT) measurements. Each of these data sets were analyzed and modelled separately to understand the data, sensitivity, and any observable changes. Then, the data were inverted jointly using a crossgradient method to further constrain temporal changes in geophysical properties within the geothermal field. Multiple permutations of annual datasets were used as inputs to the joint inversion. Results demonstrate seismic data constrain smooth inversion of the MT data, and the MT data provide supplementary information about the location of temporal fluid changes. Estimating relative changes in steam saturation for various time intervals of the joint models shows compartmentalized changes in the field, and good spatial correlation with the location of injection wells. These results demonstrate that collecting both passive seismic and MT measurements then modeling them jointly provide complementary information and a relatively inexpensive method for monitoring temporal changes in an active geothermal field that provides results to support operators. </p>","conferenceTitle":"50th Workshop on Geothermal Reservoir Engineering","conferenceDate":"February 10-12, 2025","conferenceLocation":"Stanford, CA","language":"English","publisher":"Stanford University","usgsCitation":"Peacock, J., Alumbaugh, D., Gritto, R., Um, E., Ulrich, C., Mitchell, M., and Hartline, C., 2025, Summary of results from monitoring the Geysers with continuous passive seismic and repeat magnetotelluric measurements (2021-2023), 50th Workshop on Geothermal Reservoir Engineering, Stanford, CA, February 10-12, 2025, 4 p.","productDescription":"4 p.","ipdsId":"IP-174899","costCenters":[{"id":312,"text":"Geology, Minerals, Energy, and Geophysics Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":484833,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":484832,"rank":1,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://pangea.stanford.edu/ERE/db/IGAstandard/record_detail.php?id=38093"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","otherGeospatial":"the Geysers","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -122.883333,\n              38.866667\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.883333,\n              38.716667\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.6833,\n              38.716667\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.6833,\n              38.866667\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.883333,\n              38.866667\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Peacock, Jared R. 0000-0002-0439-0224","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0439-0224","contributorId":210082,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Peacock","given":"Jared R.","affiliations":[{"id":312,"text":"Geology, Minerals, Energy, and Geophysics Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":934176,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Alumbaugh, David 0000-0002-6975-7197","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6975-7197","contributorId":299109,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Alumbaugh","given":"David","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":64775,"text":"Berkeley National Lab","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":934177,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Gritto, Roland","contributorId":194798,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Gritto","given":"Roland","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":934178,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Um, Evan","contributorId":345396,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Um","given":"Evan","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":39617,"text":"Lawrence Berkeley National Lab","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":934179,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Ulrich, Craig","contributorId":336922,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Ulrich","given":"Craig","affiliations":[{"id":80913,"text":"3.

Recent volcanism at the Salton Buttes and active seismicity along the SAFIF fault system highlight active tectonic and magmatic processes that pose natural hazards and may impact energy and mineral production. Characterizing the subsurface architecture and extent of concealed alteration associated with this tectono-magmatic system enhances understanding of these active processes, associated hazards, and resources. </p><p>We have compiled a gravity database, consisting of new and re-processed existing data, from which we have constructed a new isostatic residual gravity anomaly map of the Salton trough. We have used this new gravity dataset together with a compilation of publicly available borehole data to develop new depth to basement inversion models for the region. These depth to basement models help to constrain basin geometries, inform alteration mapping, and reveal variations in basement rocks. Due to the concealed nature of the complex tectonic framework at the Salton trough, it is necessary to utilize geophysical methods for subsurface characterization. These new depth to basement models are a first step toward constructing 2D and 3D geophysical and geologic models of the Imperial Valley and Salton Sea geothermal area.

A suite of 35 coastal birds have been identified as priority species for multi-scale conservation monitoring in this region by the Gulf of Mexico Avian Monitoring Network (GoMAMN). This review focuses on impacts of human disturbance and anthropogenic habitat loss and/or degradation on coastal birds and effectiveness of the management strategies implemented to mitigate them, with the goal of informing nGoM management. Our review found that human disturbance was best alleviated by simultaneously deploying complementary stewardship techniques (e.g., signs, fencing, steward patrols, education and community involvement, and beach closures to humans, dogs, and vehicles). However, the relative efficacy of each individual technique is unclear given that only 13% of human disturbance management studies and 38% of habitat management studies have been conducted in the nGoM region. Given the nature of coastal bird habitat and associated risks from sea level rise and human development, most habitat management studies encouraged strategic applications of beach renourishment, limitations on beach raking, as well as site- and species-specific restoration strategies. Studies demonstrated that successful management of coastal birds in the nGoM combined these approaches, employing complementary and adaptive strategies over extended periods.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Association of Field Ornithologists","doi":"10.5751/JFO-00612-960107","usgsCitation":"Fuller, J., Michel, N.L., Adams, E.M., Darrah, A.,

Among the various categories of conserved lands in the United States, the National Wildlife Refuge System is focused on the protection and management of native wildlife and plant populations. Refuge lands can be associated with wetlands and, especially in California, tend to be near areas of intense human use, including agriculture. The proximity of refuges to cultivated lands results in potential exposure to pesticide drift, which increases the possibility of non-target effects on plants and wildlife. We used a passive sampler approach to quantify aerial pesticide deposition during 28&nbsp;days in spring of 2023, across five refuges in the Sacramento Valley of California. Pesticides were detected across all refuges and plots within the study area, with 36 individual compounds identified, including insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides, from 176 silicone bands from 49 plots. Distance to agriculture was not an important predictor in our models for most indices of contamination. However, our models revealed that the nearest crop type was an important mediator of the importance of distance to agriculture, as fungicide contamination decreased with distance to agriculture only when orchards were the nearest crop type. The overall lack of distance effects suggests that the interior of refuges in the study area do not necessarily provide more protection from pesticides than refuge edges, although larger refuges could offer more protection. We currently lack information on how the level of contamination found herein is biologically relevant to wildlife, and ongoing monitoring efforts have found productive communities of insects in the study area. The results of this study provide a foundation for future investigations on refuges to analyze impacts of specific pesticide compounds on plants and wildlife.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.scitotenv.2025.178991","usgsCitation":"Lenard, A., Burns, T., Hladik, M.L., Keller, K., Marcum, S., Thogmartin, W.E., and Forister, M.L., 2025, Pesticide contamination detected across five wildlife refuges in the Sacramento Valley of California: Science of the Total Environment, v. 969, 178991, 11 p., https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2025.178991.","productDescription":"178991, 11 p.","ipdsId":"IP-172823","costCenters":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":487280,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2025.178991","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":482793,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","otherGeospatial":"Sacramento Valley","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -122.37300689853365,\n              39.68687752157848\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.37300689853365,\n              38.24719803978664\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.17657922197687,\n              38.24719803978664\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.17657922197687,\n              39.68687752157848\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.37300689853365,\n              39.68687752157848\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"969","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Lenard, Angie 0000-0002-0085-0473","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0085-0473","contributorId":344593,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Lenard","given":"Angie","affiliations":[{"id":16686,"text":"University of Nevada, Reno","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":929408,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Burns, Therese 0000-0003-0213-6094","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0213-6094","contributorId":344594,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Burns","given":"Therese","affiliations":[{"id":36188,"text":"U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":929409,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Hladik, Michelle L. 0000-0002-0891-2712","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0891-2712","contributorId":221229,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hladik","given":"Michelle","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":929410,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Keller, Kaylene","contributorId":351762,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Keller","given":"Kaylene","affiliations":[{"id":36188,"text":"U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":929411,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Marcum, Samantha","contributorId":351763,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Marcum","given":"Samantha","affiliations":[{"id":36188,"text":"U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":929412,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Thogmartin, Wayne E. 0000-0002-2384-4279 wthogmartin@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2384-4279","contributorId":2545,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Thogmartin","given":"Wayne","email":"wthogmartin@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":114,"text":"Alaska Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":929413,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Forister, Matthew L.","contributorId":173758,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Forister","given":"Matthew","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":16686,"text":"University of Nevada, Reno","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":929414,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}

The 2024 U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Lake Erie Biological Station Annual Report is responsive to these FCOs and the USGS obligations via a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU 2017) with the Great Lakes Fishery Commission (GLFC) Council of Lake Committees (CLC) to provide scientific information in support of fishery management. Goals for the USGS Great Lakes Deepwater Fish Assessment and Ecological Studies were to monitor long-term changes in the fish community and track population dynamics of key fishes of interest to management agencies. Specific to Lake Erie, expectations were sustained investigations of native percids, prey fish populations, and Lake Trout. All work was conducted as part of the Deepwater Science Program under the authority of the Great Lakes Fishery Research Authorization Act of 2019 (16 USC §941h).\n\nThe USGS 2024 Deepwater Science Program fieldwork began in Lake Erie in March and concluded in December, using trawl, gill net, hydroacoustic, lower trophic sampling devices, and telemetry methods. This work resulted in 44 bottom trawls covering 41 ha of lake bottom and catching 48,936 fish totaling 995 kg in the West Basin of Lake Erie, with detailed results described below. Overnight gill net sets (n=25) for coldwater species were performed in the East Basin of Lake Erie. A total of 8 km of gillnet was deployed during these surveys, which caught 106 fish, 92 of which were native coldwater species: Lake Trout, Burbot, and Lake Whitefish. Results from coldwater species assessments will be reported in the Coldwater Task Group report to the GLFC and the CLC (CTG 2025). These reports are used to inform Lake Trout stocking decisions and direct lamprey control measures (16 USC §939a). USGS hydroacoustic sampling included twenty-six 5-km transects (130 km total) in the Central Basin as part of a collaborative lake-wide survey with details and results reported by the Forage Task Group (FTG 2025). Lower trophic sampling provided data from zooplankton samples (n=12) and water quality profiles (n=12) to populate a database maintained by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MDNR), Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources (OMNR), Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR), Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission (PFBC), and New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC). USGS also assisted CLC member agencies with deployment and maintenance of Great Lakes Acoustic Telemetry Observation System (GLATOS) infrastructure throughout all three Lake Erie basins and tributaries, supporting multiple coordinated telemetry investigations.\n\nThis report presents biomass-based summaries of fish communities in western Lake Erie derived from USGS bottom trawl surveys conducted from 2013 to 2024 during June and September. The survey design compliments the August ODNR- OMNRF effort by reinforcing stock assessments with more robust data. Analyses herein evaluated trends in total biomass, abundance of dominant predator and forage species, non-native species composition, biodiversity, and community structure.

Repeated wildfire within the landscape has led to an increase in invasive annual grasses and a decrease in sagebrush (</span><i>Artemisia</i><span>&nbsp;sp.) cover in important nesting and brood-rearing habitat. We estimated survival for adult females, nests, and chicks and assessed biotic characteristics that may influence these survival estimates to identify factors that may be limiting population growth. We monitored 37 female sage-grouse marked with GPS PTTS, 39 nests, and 8 broods for 3 years (2019–2021). We measured vegetation characteristics for nests at the microsite and landscape scale to evaluate effects on daily nest survival (DNS). We used survival rates from all life stages to parameterize matrix models and estimate population growth rate. Mean nest success over 3 years was 29% (95% CI: 17.1–44.8) across a 29-day incubation period and DNS declined as the proportion of both medusahead&nbsp;</span><i>Taeniatherum caput-medusae</i><span>&nbsp;and Japanese brome&nbsp;</span><i>Bromus japonicus</i><span>&nbsp;around the nest increased. Across all three years, mean chick survival across a 54-day period was 44% (95% CI: 0.9–72.3) and mean annual survival for adult females was 29% (95% CI: 17.8–43.7). Our estimated vital rates were 45–55% lower than distribution-wide estimates and the projected population growth rate was strongly declining (0.411, 95% CI: 0.30–0.52). Our results suggested recent cover changes associated with wildfire on the study area may have had a detrimental effect on this population across all life stages, and if attention is not given to preventing the transition from sagebrush communities into invasive grasslands, this population and others in degraded landscapes may not persist.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/wlb3.01242","usgsCitation":"Sink, C., Dugger, K., Hagen, C., and Vradenburg, J., 2025, Living on the edge: Identifying demographic bottlenecks in an isolated sage-grouse population: Wildlife Biology, v. 2025, no. 2, e01242, 18 p., https://doi.org/10.1002/wlb3.01242.","productDescription":"e01242, 18 p.","ipdsId":"IP-158671","costCenters":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":489733,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/wlb3.01242","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":486226,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","county":"Modoc County","otherGeospatial":"Clear LakeNational Wildlife Refuge","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -121.24706523722875,\n              41.936621403090356\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.24706523722875,\n              41.792308909369126\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.02561950743748,\n              41.792308909369126\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.02561950743748,\n              41.936621403090356\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.24706523722875,\n              41.936621403090356\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"2025","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2024-09-23","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Sink, Chelsea E.","contributorId":355595,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Sink","given":"Chelsea E.","affiliations":[{"id":6680,"text":"Oregon State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":937695,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Dugger, Katie M. 0000-0002-4148-246X cdugger@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4148-246X","contributorId":4399,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Dugger","given":"Katie","email":"cdugger@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":937696,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Hagen, Christian A.","contributorId":355597,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hagen","given":"Christian A.","affiliations":[{"id":6680,"text":"Oregon State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":937697,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Vradenburg, John N.","contributorId":355598,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Vradenburg","given":"John N.","affiliations":[{"id":6680,"text":"Oregon State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":937698,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

However, the relative roles of host and environmental factors in shaping the composition of pathogen communities in urban wildlife is understudied. In this study, we integrated DNA and RNA virome data with host genomic and GPS datasets to investigate factors shaping virome composition in bobcats (</span><i>Lynx rufus</i><span>&nbsp;) at the WUI in the Tucson Mountains, Arizona, USA. Using a hybrid-capture approach for 31 scats and 17 buccal swabs, we identified multiple viruses that could affect carnivore health at the WUI, including canine parvovirus, feline astrovirus,&nbsp;</span><i>Felis catus</i><span>&nbsp;papillomaviruses 2 and 3 and Lyon-IARC polyomavirus. Models of virome composition and distribution of viral taxa indicated contributions of host genetic relatedness and factors relating to urbanisation (such as percentages of urban land cover, road and building densities and distances to roads). Genetic associations with virome compositions were particularly influenced by females. While females exhibit significant isolation by distance, partial Mantel tests revealed a significant correlation between beta diversity and host genetic distance in females only. To our knowledge, this study represents the first assessment of factors shaping virome composition in a wild felid. Our finding of known feline and canine pathogens in bobcats underscores the potential of the WUI to facilitate cross-species transmission between wild and domestic animals.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/mec.17681","usgsCitation":"Payne, N., Andersen, D., Mollohan, C., Van Doorslaer, K., Combrink, L., and Culver, M., 2025, Urbanization and host relatedness shape virome composition in a widespread, generalist carnivore: Molecular Ecology, v. 34, no. 6, e17681, 17 p., https://doi.org/10.1111/mec.17681.","productDescription":"e17681, 17 p.","ipdsId":"IP-174506","costCenters":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":486225,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Arizona","city":"Tucson","otherGeospatial":"Tucson Mountains","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -111.20811415902976,\n              32.32028515103218\n            ],\n            [\n              -111.20811415902976,\n              32.11964386691881\n            ],\n            [\n              -111.03231033562199,\n              32.11964386691881\n            ],\n            [\n              -111.03231033562199,\n              32.32028515103218\n            ],\n            [\n              -111.20811415902976,\n              32.32028515103218\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"34","issue":"6","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2025-02-23","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Payne, Natalie","contributorId":355612,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Payne","given":"Natalie","affiliations":[{"id":7042,"text":"University of Arizona","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":937758,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Andersen, Desiree","contributorId":355613,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Andersen","given":"Desiree","affiliations":[{"id":7042,"text":"University of Arizona","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":937759,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Mollohan, Cheryl","contributorId":355614,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Mollohan","given":"Cheryl","affiliations":[{"id":84784,"text":"Bobcats in Tucson Research Project ©","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":937760,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Van Doorslaer, Koenraad","contributorId":355615,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Van Doorslaer","given":"Koenraad","affiliations":[{"id":7042,"text":"University of Arizona","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":937761,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Combrink, Leigh","contributorId":355616,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Combrink","given":"Leigh","affiliations":[{"id":7042,"text":"University of Arizona","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":937762,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Culver, Melanie 0000-0001-5380-3059 mculver@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5380-3059","contributorId":197693,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Culver","given":"Melanie","email":"mculver@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":937763,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

Johnson and Knight bring to this book a personal fascination with this landscape. Their decades of experience and knowledge of the ecosystems of the Dakotas is exhibited in the well written and copiously illustrated thirteen chapters. This book blends observation, geology, biology, ecology, history, the transformation of this landscape by European settlement, and identifies the challenges that will be faced with climate change. Johnson and Knight are master storytellers that allow them to present these important concepts and ideas to a general audience.","language":"English","publisher":"Eagle Hill Publications","usgsCitation":"Guntenspergen, G.R., 2025, Book review: Ecology of Dakota landscapes: Past, present, and future, by W.

Chronic wasting disease (CWD) causes neurological degeneration and eventual death to white-tailed deer (</span><i>Odocoileus virginianus</i><span>) in Wisconsin. Targeted culling involves removing deer after traditional hunting seasons in areas with high CWD prevalence. The evaluation of the causal effects of targeted culling in the spread and growth of CWD is an important unresolved research and CWD management question that can guide surveillance efforts. Reaction–diffusion partial differential equations (PDEs) can be used to mechanistically model the underlying spatiotemporal dynamics of wildlife diseases, like CWD, allowing researchers to make inference about unobserved epidemiological quantities. These models indirectly regress spatiotemporal covariates on diffusion and growth rates parameterizing such PDEs, obtaining associational conclusions. In this work we develop an innovative method to obtain causal estimators for the effect of targeted culling interventions on CWD epidemiological processes using an inverse-probability-of-treatment-weighted technique by means of marginal structural models embedded in the PDE fitting process. Additionally we establish a novel scheme for sensitivity analysis under unmeasured confounder for testing the hypothesis of a significant causal effect in the indirectly measured epidemiological outcomes. Our methods can be broadly used to study the impact of spatiotemporal interventions and treatment exposures in the epidemiological evolution of infectious diseases that can help to inform future efforts to mitigate public health implications and wildlife disease burden.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/env.2901","usgsCitation":"Reyes, J., Ma, T., McGahan, I., Storm, D., Walsh, D.P., and Zhu, J., 2025, Spatiotemporal causal inference with mechanistic ecological models: Evaluating targeted culling on chronic wasting disease dynamics in cervids: Environmetrics, v. 36, no. 2, e2901, 14 p., https://doi.org/10.1002/env.2901.","productDescription":"e2901, 14 p.","ipdsId":"IP-166539","costCenters":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":490648,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/env.2901","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":489259,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Wisconsin","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -90.82700363741058,\n              43.768147806390715\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.82700363741058,\n              42.50633570600206\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.0890731993092,\n              42.50633570600206\n            ],\n            [\n              -89.0890731993092,\n              43.768147806390715\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.82700363741058,\n              43.768147806390715\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"36","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2025-02-06","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Reyes, Juan Francisco Mandujano","contributorId":356170,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Reyes","given":"Juan Francisco Mandujano","affiliations":[{"id":7122,"text":"University of Wisconsin","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":938822,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Ma, Ting Fung","contributorId":356171,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Ma","given":"Ting Fung","affiliations":[{"id":37804,"text":"University of South Carolina","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":938823,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"McGahan, Ian P.","contributorId":356173,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"McGahan","given":"Ian P.","affiliations":[{"id":7122,"text":"University of Wisconsin","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":938824,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Storm, Daniel J.","contributorId":356175,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Storm","given":"Daniel J.","affiliations":[{"id":6913,"text":"Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":938825,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Walsh, Daniel P. 0000-0002-7772-2445","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7772-2445","contributorId":219539,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Walsh","given":"Daniel","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":456,"text":"National Wildlife Health Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":938826,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Zhu, Jun","contributorId":356177,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Zhu","given":"Jun","affiliations":[{"id":7122,"text":"University of Wisconsin","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":938827,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

Physical recapture methods tend to be labor-intensive and therefore expensive, while remote detection methods are not easily applied to all taxa or are proprietary and thus difficult to customize. However, partnerships between wildlife scientists and engineers have the potential to provide innovative solutions that improve data collection while reducing costs. We describe a collaborative effort to improve the collection of mark-reencounter data on an invasive reptile, the brown treesnake (</span><i>Boiga irregularis</i><span>). In laboratory trials conducted on Guåhan (CHamoru; Guam in English) in 2021, we assessed the feasibility of detecting snakes fitted with passive integrated transponder (PIT) tags using customized remote PIT-tag readers (RePTaR) paired with baited snake traps. We evaluated differences in scanning success as a function of snake traits, location of PIT tags within snakes, and the distance of the PIT tag from the reader. We successfully scanned all individuals, on average 529 times but ranging from 3 to 6,436 times, during 12-hour trials using a designed customizable RePTaR unit. Snake characteristics and marking location explained little of the variability in scanning success, with distance from the reader as the best-supported covariate.

We also measured total sulfur (TS) content, grain size distributions, total organic carbon (TOC) content, and the magnetic mineral assemblage to further constrain the role of diagenesis on κ. Understanding how κ can be used to better characterize the varied effects of detrital and diagenetic signals in marine settings is important for understanding biogeochemical cycling and records of paleoenvironmental change. The upper 100&nbsp;m of slope basin Site 1252 contains multiple intervals (&gt; 90&nbsp;m total) of decreased κ correlated with elevated TS content, consistent with dissolution of magnetite and precipitation of pyrite, iron monosulfides, and/or elemental sulfur. Similarly at the other slope basin site, Site U1325, κ is lower and TS is elevated in the interval between 24 and 51 mbsf, due to sulfide formation. At both slope basin sites, these low κ intervals correspond with high TOC, suggesting the possibility that organoclastic sulfate reduction (OSR) is likely a major driver of diagenetic alteration of κ at these sites. High TS:TOC ratios at Site U1325 suggests anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) during sulfate-methane transition zone (SMTZ) migration may have contributed to alteration of κ. In contrast, within the upper 90&nbsp;m of Site 1249, a methane seep site at the summit of Hydrate Ridge, κ is almost entirely altered by diagenetic processes, with much of the low κ explained by a high degree of iron sulfide formation, while some intervals are affected by precipitation of magnetic iron sulfides that maintain or even increase κ. The presence of abundant methane seepage and gas hydrate as well as chemosynthetic seafloor fauna at this site, suggests that sulfide is released to the water column and AOM, rather than OSR, drives diagenetic alteration of κ at this site. Overall, the slope basin sites show episodic variation of κ that is influenced by TOC content, likely driven by changes in marine primary productivity and sedimentation rate, while the seep site shows consistently altered κ with lower TS content and no correlation with TOC. Methane seep environments likely experience loss of hydrogen sulfide to the water column and oxidation of hydrogen sulfide by seafloor seep fauna, which limits the amount of solid phase sulfur (pyrite, iron monosulfides, elemental sulfur) that can be precipitated within the sediments. In contrast, the migration of a buried SMTZ at slope basin sites results in enhanced sulfur precipitation within the sediments. This integrated magnetic and geochemical approach reveals the diagenetic production pathway and residence time of sulfide with the sediment column ultimately controls the style and degree of diagenetic loss of κ in marine sediments. This approach works best in environments with unaltered reference intervals/sites, consistent magnetic mineralogy, and clay-to-silt grain sizes.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.margeo.2025.107519","usgsCitation":"Phillips, S.C., Johnson, J.E., Clyde, W., Hong, W., Setera, J., and Torres, M.E., 2025, Tracking diagenetic alteration of magnetic susceptibility in thrust ridge and slope basin sediments of the Cascadia margin (ODP Sites 1249 and 1252; IODP Site U1325): Marine Geology, v. 483, 107519, 25 p., https://doi.org/10.1016/j.margeo.2025.107519.","productDescription":"107519, 25 p.","ipdsId":"IP-145344","costCenters":[{"id":678,"text":"Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":487428,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"www.osti.gov/servlets/purl/2524598","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":482911,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Canada, United States","otherGeospatial":"Cascadia margin, Pacific Ocean","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -129,\n              50\n            ],\n            [\n              -129,\n              44\n            ],\n            [\n              -123,\n              44\n            ],\n            [\n              -123,\n              50\n            ],\n            [\n              -129,\n              50\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"483","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Phillips, Stephen C. 0000-0003-0858-4701","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0858-4701","contributorId":268177,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Phillips","given":"Stephen","email":"","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":678,"text":"Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":929616,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Johnson, Joel E.","contributorId":346768,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Johnson","given":"Joel","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":12667,"text":"University of New Hampshire","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":929617,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Clyde, William","contributorId":268178,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Clyde","given":"William","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":12667,"text":"University of New Hampshire","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":929618,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Hong, Wei-Li","contributorId":351864,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hong","given":"Wei-Li","affiliations":[{"id":24562,"text":"Stockholm University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":929619,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Setera, Jacob","contributorId":351865,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Setera","given":"Jacob","affiliations":[{"id":12667,"text":"University of New Hampshire","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":929620,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Torres, Marta E.","contributorId":196035,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Torres","given":"Marta","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":929621,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

Critically, such extreme weather events can be more important drivers of extirpation and selection than changes in annual or seasonal averages and they pose a particularly large threat to poikilothermic organisms. In this study, we evaluated the transcriptomic response of a coldwater adapted fish species, the eastern brook trout (</span><i>Salvelinus fontinalis</i><span>), to two successive heatwaves during July and August 2022. We sampled brook trout at eight time points from four streams (</span><i>N</i><span>&nbsp;=&nbsp;116 fish), sequenced mRNA from gill samples using TagSeq, and quantified expression levels of 32,670 unique transcripts. Multivariate analyses found that overall expression patterns in response to water temperature change were similar among streams. These analyses further detected groups of genes involved in immune response and oxygen carrier activity that were upregulated and downregulated respectively at higher water temperatures. We also detected 43 genes that were differentially expressed at different time points and followed the same expression pattern during the two heatwaves. Of these genes, 42 covaried with water temperature and most (27, 62.8&nbsp;%) exhibited responses that varied by stream. Some of the differentially expressed genes, including heat shock proteins and cold-inducible RNA binding proteins, have been widely linked to temperature responses in experimental studies, whereas other genes we identified have functions that have not been well-studied in relationship to temperature or have unknown functions. This study shows the utility of landscape transcriptomic approaches to identify important biological processes governing wild organismal responses to short-term stressors. The results of this study can guide future investigations to identify phenotypic and genetic diversity that contribute to adaptive responses to heatwaves and improve predictions of how populations will respond to future climate change.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.scitotenv.2025.178960","usgsCitation":"Waraniak, J., Batchelor, S., Wagner, T., and Keagy, J., 2025, Landscape transcriptomic analysis detects thermal stress responses and potential adaptive variation in wild brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) during successive heatwaves: Science of Total Environment, v. 969, 178960, 16 p., https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2025.178960.","productDescription":"178960, 16 p.","ipdsId":"IP-172846","costCenters":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":493808,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2025.178960","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":493729,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Pennsylvania","county":"Centre County, Huntingdon County","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -77.92993465175924,\n              40.881082085248664\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.92993465175924,\n              40.57251392307114\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.16376958399,\n              40.57251392307114\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.16376958399,\n              40.881082085248664\n            ],\n            [\n              -77.92993465175924,\n              40.881082085248664\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"969","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Waraniak, Justin","contributorId":359192,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Waraniak","given":"Justin","affiliations":[{"id":6738,"text":"The Pennsylvania State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":945038,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Batchelor, Sarah","contributorId":359193,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Batchelor","given":"Sarah","affiliations":[{"id":6738,"text":"The Pennsylvania State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":945039,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Wagner, Tyler 0000-0003-1726-016X twagner@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1726-016X","contributorId":218091,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Wagner","given":"Tyler","email":"twagner@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":945040,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Keagy, Jason","contributorId":359194,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Keagy","given":"Jason","affiliations":[{"id":6738,"text":"The Pennsylvania State University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":945041,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

An alternative is to assess pollutant effects on waterborne bacteria. A flow cytometric method was developed to yield rapid, same-day results that could be used to proactively screen for suspected chemical inputs into watersheds using water sampling methods that are identical to those in standard use. The analytical methods are microbe cultivation-independent, for use with waterborne bacteria that are typically viable but not culturable. The procedure is quick and inexpensive, generating measures of bacterial esterase that reflect metabolic activity and are sensitive and statistically robust. After phosphate-EDTA incubation to increase cell wall permeability, staining was performed with 5(6) carboxyfluorescein diacetate (enzyme activity) and propidium iodide (cell viability) with three bacterial species in exponential phase growth having been incubated with organic wastewater compounds (atrazine, pharmaceuticals [17α-ethynylestradiol and trenbolone], and antimicrobials [tylosin and butylparaben]). This method successfully detected metabolic changes in all bacterial species, with atrazine inducing the greatest change. Additional fluorescent stains can target specific microbial structures or functions of interest in a particular watershed. This biotechnology can inform analytical chemistry and study of biota at sites of interest and has the potential to be automated.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"MDPI","doi":"10.3390/cells14050352","usgsCitation":"Jenkins, J., Mize, S., Johnson, D., and Brown, B.L., 2025, Flow cytometric detection of waterborne bacteria metabolic response to anthropogenic chemical inputs to aquatic ecosystems: Cells, v. 14, no. 5, 352, 15 p., https://doi.org/10.3390/cells14050352.","productDescription":"352, 15 p.","ipdsId":"IP-175016","costCenters":[{"id":17705,"text":"Wetland and Aquatic Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":488303,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.3390/cells14050352","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":483340,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"14","issue":"5","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2025-02-28","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Jenkins, Jill 0000-0002-5087-0894","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5087-0894","contributorId":222865,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Jenkins","given":"Jill","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":17705,"text":"Wetland and Aquatic Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":930587,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Mize, Scott 0000-0001-6751-5568","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6751-5568","contributorId":218508,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Mize","given":"Scott","affiliations":[{"id":24708,"text":"Lower Mississippi-Gulf Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":930588,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Johnson, Darren 0000-0002-0502-6045","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0502-6045","contributorId":205688,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Johnson","given":"Darren","affiliations":[{"id":37106,"text":"Cherokee Nation","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":930589,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Brown, Bonnie L.","contributorId":23083,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Brown","given":"Bonnie","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":930590,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

Here, we present ARCHI (Automated Regional Correlation Analysis for Hydrologic Record Imputation), a new, open-source software package in R designed to aggregate, impute, cluster, and visualize regionally correlated hydrologic records. ARCHI imputes missing data in “target” records by linear regression using more complete “reference” records as predictors. Automated imputation is implemented using a novel, iterative algorithm that allows each site to be considered a target or reference for regression, growing the pool of complete references with each imputed record until viable gap-filling ceases. Users can limit artifacts from spurious correlations by specifying model-acceptance criteria and applying geospatial, correlation, and group-based filters to control reference selection. ARCHI provides additional functions for visualizing results, clustering records with similar correlation structures, evaluating holdout data, and interactive parameterization with an accessible and intuitive graphical user interface (GUI). This methods brief provides an overview of the ARCHI package, modeling guidelines, and benchmarking on two regional groundwater-level datasets from the Central Valley, CA and Long Island, NY. We evaluate ARCHI alongside widely used multivariate imputation software to highlight and contextualize its computational efficiency, imputation accuracy, and model transparency when applied to large, groundwater-level datasets.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/gwat.13474","usgsCitation":"Levy, Z., Glas, R.L., Stagnitta, T.J., and Terry, N., 2025, ARCHI: A new R package for automated imputation of regionally correlated hydrologic records: Groundwater, v. 62, no. 4, p. 595-610, https://doi.org/10.1111/gwat.13474.","productDescription":"16 p.","startPage":"595","endPage":"610","ipdsId":"IP-166664","costCenters":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":492870,"rank":1,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1111/gwat.13474","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":492796,"rank":0,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/P17NXGHV","text":"USGS data release","linkHelpText":"Example Groundwater-Level Datasets and Benchmarking Results for the Automated Regional Correlation Analysis for Hydrologic Record Imputation (ARCHI) Software Package"},{"id":492616,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California, New York","otherGeospatial":"Central Valley, Long Island","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -121.13447900247726,\n              37.3805353859038\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.13447900247726,\n              35.88363374499093\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.93035501208706,\n              35.88363374499093\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.93035501208706,\n              37.3805353859038\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.13447900247726,\n              37.3805353859038\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    },\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -71.76788606860265,\n              41.23528810034301\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.12298971233533,\n              41.23528810034301\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.12298971233533,\n              40.43286561377994\n            ],\n            [\n              -71.76788606860265,\n              40.43286561377994\n            ],\n            [\n              -71.76788606860265,\n              41.23528810034301\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"62","issue":"4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2025-02-28","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Levy, Zeno F. 0000-0003-4580-2309","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4580-2309","contributorId":222340,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Levy","given":"Zeno","middleInitial":"F.","affiliations":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":943531,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Glas, Robin L. 0000-0002-7394-1667","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7394-1667","contributorId":300625,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Glas","given":"Robin","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":474,"text":"New York Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":943532,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Stagnitta, Timothy J. 0000-0001-8903-428X","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8903-428X","contributorId":304230,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Stagnitta","given":"Timothy","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":595,"text":"U.S. Geological Survey","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":943533,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Terry, Neil 0000-0002-3965-340X nterry@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3965-340X","contributorId":192554,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Terry","given":"Neil","email":"nterry@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":37277,"text":"WMA - Earth System Processes Division","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":486,"text":"OGW Branch of Geophysics","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":493,"text":"Office of Ground Water","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":943534,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

Seventeen California wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) were sampled in May 2020. Biosolids samples were analyzed for 27 analytes, and paired aqueous samples (influent and effluent) were analyzed for 23 analytes. Analytes included fipronil and its transformation products (fiproles), pyrethroids, novaluron, and several other pesticides with down-the-drain transport potential. Of the 27 compounds analyzed in biosolids samples, 16 were detected in at least one sample, and 10 had a detection frequency (DF) of at least 25&nbsp;%. Fipronil sulfone, fipronil sulfide, and fipronil were the most frequently detected fiproles (DF&nbsp;=&nbsp;100&nbsp;%, 94&nbsp;%, and 67&nbsp;%, respectively); permethrin was the most frequently detected pyrethroid (DF&nbsp;=&nbsp;100&nbsp;%), followed by bifenthrin (DF&nbsp;=&nbsp;94&nbsp;%), cyhalothrin (DF&nbsp;=&nbsp;89&nbsp;%), and etofenprox (DF&nbsp;=&nbsp;78&nbsp;%). To elucidate fipronil transformation pathways within the treatment system, data from the three sample types were compared; findings were generally consistent with transformation pathways reported previously (e.g., some fiproles were rarely detected in influent or biosolids, but frequently detected in effluent, indicating their formation during the treatment process). No correlations were found between WWTP characteristics and pesticide concentrations in biosolids. The fraction of organic carbon (</span><i>f</i><sub><i>OC</i></sub><span>) of each biosolids sample was measured, and a statistically significant negative correlation was observed between&nbsp;</span><i>f</i><sub><i>OC</i></sub><span>&nbsp;and some fiproles, but not fipronil; possible explanations are discussed. Additional analysis for two major agricultural pesticides (bifenthrin and permethrin) indicated that estimated mass loads of these pesticides in biosolids applied to land as a soil amendment are minimal (approximately 2 to 3 orders of magnitude lower) compared to inputs from agricultural applications. This study provides insight on the magnitude of pesticides entering the environment via land-applied biosolids; existing regulations surrounding agricultural pesticide applications are expected to also be protective of the relatively low inputs from biosolids.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.scitotenv.2025.178954","usgsCitation":"Wheeler, J., Black, G.P., Hladik, M.L., Sanders, C., Teerlink, J., Wong, L., Zhang, X., Budd, R., and Young, T.M., 2025, Characterizing pyrethroid and fipronil concentrations in biosolids: Science of the Total Environment, v. 969, 178954, 11 p., https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2025.178954.","productDescription":"178954, 11 p.","ipdsId":"IP-171403","costCenters":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":489969,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2025.178954","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":482735,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"969","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Wheeler, John","contributorId":351645,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Wheeler","given":"John","affiliations":[{"id":40320,"text":"California Department of Pesticide Regulation","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":929202,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Black, Gabrielle Pecora 0000-0002-1578-742X","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1578-742X","contributorId":303108,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Black","given":"Gabrielle","email":"","middleInitial":"Pecora","affiliations":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":929203,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Hladik, Michelle L. 0000-0002-0891-2712","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0891-2712","contributorId":221229,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hladik","given":"Michelle","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":929204,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Sanders, Corey 0000-0001-7743-6396","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7743-6396","contributorId":204711,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Sanders","given":"Corey","affiliations":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":929205,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Teerlink, Jennifer","contributorId":297910,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Teerlink","given":"Jennifer","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":40320,"text":"California Department of Pesticide Regulation","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":929206,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Wong, Luann","contributorId":313578,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Wong","given":"Luann","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":7214,"text":"University of California, Davis","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":929207,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Zhang, Xuyang","contributorId":351647,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Zhang","given":"Xuyang","affiliations":[{"id":40320,"text":"California Department of Pesticide Regulation","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":929208,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Budd, Robert","contributorId":351742,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Budd","given":"Robert","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":929209,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8},{"text":"Young, Thomas M","contributorId":221103,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Young","given":"Thomas","email":"","middleInitial":"M","affiliations":[{"id":7214,"text":"University of California, Davis","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":929210,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":9}]}}
