Given that groundwater is a major source of drinking water, the main objective of this work was to investigate geochemical and hydrological processes governing the subsurface transport of PFASs at a former fire training area (FTA) on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, where PFAS-containing aqueous film-forming foams were used historically. A total of 148 groundwater samples and 4 sediment cores were collected along a 1200-m-long downgradient transect originating near the FTA and analyzed for PFAS content. The results indicate that unsaturated zones at the FTA and at hydraulically downgradient former domestic wastewater effluent infiltration beds both act as continuous PFAS sources to the groundwater despite 18 and 20 years of inactivity, respectively. Historically different PFAS sources are evident from contrasting PFAS composition near the water table below the FTA and wastewater-infiltration beds. Results from total oxidizable precursor assays conducted using groundwater samples collected throughout the plume suggest that some perfluoroalkyl acid precursors at this site are transporting with perfluoroalkyl acids.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"American Chemical Society","doi":"10.1021/acs.est.6b05573","usgsCitation":"Weber, A., Barber, L.B., LeBlanc, D.R., Sunderland, E.M., and Vecitis, C.D., 2017, Geochemical and hydrologic factors controlling subsurface transport of poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances, Cape Cod, Massachusetts: Environmental Science & Technology, v. 51, no. 8, p. 4269-4279, https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.6b05573.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"4269","endPage":"4279","ipdsId":"IP-080744","costCenters":[{"id":5044,"text":"National Research Program - Central Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":438239,"rank":0,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/F7Z899KT","text":"USGS data release","linkHelpText":"Poly- and perfluoalkyl substances in contaminated groundwater, Cape Cod, Massachusetts, 2014-2016"},{"id":345223,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Massachusetts","otherGeospatial":"Cape Cod","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -70.8782958984375,\n              41.430371882652814\n            ],\n            [\n              -69.7137451171875,\n              41.430371882652814\n            ],\n            [\n              -69.7137451171875,\n              42.28950073090457\n            ],\n            [\n              -70.8782958984375,\n              42.28950073090457\n            ],\n            [\n              -70.8782958984375,\n              41.430371882652814\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"51","issue":"8","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":2,"text":"Denver PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-04-06","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"59a52bd3e4b0fa5ae7c7482f","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Weber, Andrea K. 0000-0003-4811-8641 atokranov@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4811-8641","contributorId":193839,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Weber","given":"Andrea K.","email":"atokranov@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":466,"text":"New England Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":708593,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Barber, Larry B. 0000-0002-0561-0831 lbbarber@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0561-0831","contributorId":921,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Barber","given":"Larry","email":"lbbarber@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[{"id":5044,"text":"National Research Program - Central Branch","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":438,"text":"National Research Program - Western Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":708596,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"LeBlanc, Denis R. 0000-0002-4646-2628 dleblanc@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4646-2628","contributorId":1696,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"LeBlanc","given":"Denis","email":"dleblanc@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":466,"text":"New England Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":708597,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Sunderland, Elsie M.","contributorId":151016,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Sunderland","given":"Elsie","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":18166,"text":"Harvard University, Cambridge, M","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":708594,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Vecitis, Chad D.","contributorId":193842,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Vecitis","given":"Chad","email":"","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708595,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

During 2005 the chemistry of hot springs in The Breach of Mount St. Helens showed no obvious response to the eruption, and over the next few years, changes were subtle, giving only slight indications of perturbations in the system. By 2010 however, water chemistry, temperatures, and isotope compositions (δD and δ<sup>18</sup>O) clearly indicated some inputs of volatiles and heat associated with the eruption, but the changes were such that they could be attributed to a pre-existing, gas depleted magma. An increase of ~&nbsp;1.5‰ in the δ<sup>13</sup>C values of dissolved carbon in the springs was noted in 2006 and continued through 2009, a change that was mirrored by a similar shift in δ<sup>13</sup>C-CO<sub>2</sub> in bubble gas emissions. These changes require input of a new source of carbon to the hydrothermal system and provide clear evidence of CO<sub>2</sub> from an undegassed body of magma. Rising trends in <sup>3</sup>He/<sup>4</sup>He ratios in gas also accompanied the increases in δ<sup>13</sup>C. Since 2011 maximum R<sub>C</sub>/R<sub>A</sub> values are ≥&nbsp;6.4 and are distinctly higher than 5 samples collected between 1986 and 2002, and provide additional evidence for some involvement of new magma as early as 2006, and possibly earlier, given the unknown time needed for CO<sub>2</sub> and He to traverse the system and arrive at the springs.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2017.06.020","usgsCitation":"Bergfeld, D., Evans, W.C., Spicer, K.R., Hunt, A.G., and Kelly, P.J., 2017, Evidence for degassing of fresh magma during the 2004-2008 eruption of Mount St. Helens: Subtle signals from the hydrothermal system: Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, v. 343, p. 109-121, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2017.06.020.","productDescription":"13 p.","startPage":"109","endPage":"121","ipdsId":"IP-087110","costCenters":[{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":461426,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2017.06.020","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":345181,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Washington","otherGeospatial":"Mount St. Helens","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -122.42202758789061,\n              46.06465561687544\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.97158813476561,\n              46.06465561687544\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.97158813476561,\n              46.326068311712596\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.42202758789061,\n              46.326068311712596\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.42202758789061,\n              46.06465561687544\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"343","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":14,"text":"Menlo Park PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"59a3da2fe4b077f00567321f","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Bergfeld, Deborah 0000-0003-4570-7627 dbergfel@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4570-7627","contributorId":152531,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bergfeld","given":"Deborah","email":"dbergfel@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":708430,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Evans, William C. 0000-0001-5942-3102 wcevans@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5942-3102","contributorId":2353,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Evans","given":"William","email":"wcevans@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":37277,"text":"WMA - Earth System Processes Division","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":438,"text":"National Research Program - Western Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":708431,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Spicer, Kurt R. 0000-0001-5030-3198 krspicer@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5030-3198","contributorId":2684,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Spicer","given":"Kurt","email":"krspicer@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":708432,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Hunt, Andrew G. 0000-0002-3810-8610 ahunt@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3810-8610","contributorId":1582,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hunt","given":"Andrew","email":"ahunt@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[{"id":211,"text":"Crustal Geophysics and Geochemistry Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":708433,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Kelly, Peter J. 0000-0002-3868-1046 pkelly@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3868-1046","contributorId":5931,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kelly","given":"Peter","email":"pkelly@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":114,"text":"Alaska Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":708434,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

Polar bears may be food deprived and relatively inactive during winter (when pregnant females hibernate and hunting success declines for other demographic groups) as well as summer (when sea ice retreats from key foraging habitats). We investigated muscle atrophy in samples of biceps femoris collected from free-ranging polar bears in the Southern Beaufort Sea (SBS) throughout their annual cycle. Atrophy was most pronounced in April–May as a result of food deprivation during the previous winter, with muscles exhibiting reduced protein concentration, increased water content, and lower creatine kinase mRNA. These animals increased feeding and activity in spring (when seal prey becomes more available), initiating a period of muscle recovery. During the following ice melt of late summer, ~30% of SBS bears abandon retreating sea ice for land; in August, these ‘shore’ bears exhibited no muscle atrophy, indicating that they had fully recovered from winter food deprivation. These individuals subsequently scavenged whale carcasses deposited by humans and by October, had retained good muscle condition. In contrast, ~70% of SBS bears follow the ice north in late summer, into deep water with less prey. These ‘ice’ bears fast; by October, they exhibited muscle protein loss and rapid changes in myosin heavy-chain isoforms in response to reduced activity. These findings indicate that, unlike other bears during winter hibernation, polar bears without food in summer cannot mitigate atrophy. Consequently, prolonged summer fasting resulting from climate change-induced ice loss creates a risk of greater muscle atrophy and reduced abilities to travel and hunt.","language":"English","publisher":"Oxford Academic","doi":"10.1093/conphys/cox049","usgsCitation":"Whiteman, J.P., Harlow, H.J., Durner, G.M., Regehr, E.V., Rourke, B.C., Robles, M., Amstrup, S.C., and Ben-David, M., 2017, Polar bears experience skeletal muscle atrophy in response to food deprivation and reduced activity in winter and summer: Conservation Physiology, v. 5, no. 1, Article cox049; 15 p., https://doi.org/10.1093/conphys/cox049.","productDescription":"Article cox049; 15 p.","ipdsId":"IP-079552","costCenters":[{"id":116,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology MFEB","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":469588,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1093/conphys/cox049","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":345180,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"5","issue":"1","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":12,"text":"Tacoma PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-08-09","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"59a3da2fe4b077f00567321d","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Whiteman, John P.","contributorId":194427,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Whiteman","given":"John","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":17842,"text":"University of Wyoming, Laramie","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":708443,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Harlow, Henry J.","contributorId":195844,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Harlow","given":"Henry","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":17842,"text":"University of Wyoming, Laramie","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":708444,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Durner, George M. 0000-0002-3370-1191 gdurner@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3370-1191","contributorId":3576,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Durner","given":"George","email":"gdurner@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":116,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology MFEB","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":114,"text":"Alaska Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":708442,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Regehr, Eric V. 0000-0003-4487-3105","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4487-3105","contributorId":66364,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Regehr","given":"Eric","email":"","middleInitial":"V.","affiliations":[{"id":12428,"text":"U.

To this end, municipalities collect grab samples at streams entering and leaving their jurisdiction to determine levels of excessive nutrients, sediment, and fecal bacteria to characterize pollutants and understand the factors affecting them.</p><p>In 2014, the U.S. Geological Survey and the Johnson County Stormwater Management Program, with input from the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, initiated a 5-year monitoring program to satisfy minimum sampling requirements for each municipality as described by new stormwater permits issued to Johnson County municipalities. The purpose of this report is to provide a preliminary assessment of the monitoring program. The monitoring program is described, a preliminary assessment of the monitoring program design is provided using water-quality data collected during the first 2 years of the program, and the ability of the current monitoring network and sampling plan to provide data sufficient to quantify improvements in water quality resulting from implemented and planned best management practices is evaluated. The information in this initial report may be used to evaluate changes in data collection methods while data collection is still ongoing that may lead to improved data utility.</p><p>Discrete water-quality samples were collected at 27 sites and analyzed for nutrients, <i>Escherichia coli</i> (<i>E. coli</i>) bacteria, total suspended solids, and suspended-sediment concentration. In addition, continuous water-quality data (water temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, specific conductance, turbidity, and nitrate plus nitrite) were collected at one site to characterize variability and provide a basis for comparison to discrete data. Base flow samples indicated that point sources are likely affecting nutrient concentrations and <i>E. coli</i> bacteria densities at several sites. Concentrations of all analytes in storm runoff samples were characterized by substantial variability among sites and samples. About one-half of the sites, representing different watersheds, had storm runoff samples with nitrogen concentrations greater than 10 milligrams per liter. About one-third of the sites, representing different watersheds, had storm runoff samples with total phosphorus concentrations greater than 3 milligrams per liter. Six sites had samples with <i>E. coli</i> densities greater than 100,000 colonies per 100 milliliters of water. Total suspended solids concentrations of about 12,000 milligrams per liter or greater occurred in samples from three sites.</p><p>Data collected for this monitoring program may be useful for some general assessment purposes but may also be limited in potential to fully inform stormwater management activities. Valuable attributes of the monitoring program design included incorporating many sites across the county for comparisons among watersheds and municipalities, using fixed-stage samplers to collect multiple samples during single events, collection of base flow samples in addition to storm samples to isolate possible point sources from stormwater sources, and use of continuous monitors to characterize variability. Limiting attributes of the monitoring program design included location of monitoring sites along municipal boundaries to satisfy permit requirements rather than using watershed-based criteria such as locations of tributaries, potential pollutant sources, and implemented management practices. Additional limiting attributes include having a large number of widespread sampling locations, which presented logistical challenges for predicting localized rainfall and collecting and analyzing samples during short timeframes associated with storms, and collecting storm samples at fixed-stage elevations only during the rising limb of storms, which does not characterize conditions over the storm hydrograph. The small number of samples collected per site resulted in a sample size too small to be representative of site conditions, including seasonal and hydrologic variability, and insufficient for meaningful statistical analysis or site-specific modeling.</p><p>Several measures could be taken to improve data utility and include redesigning the monitoring network according to watershed characteristics, incorporating a nested design in which data are collected at different scales (watershed, subwatershed, and best management practices), increasing sampling frequency, and combining different methods to allow for flexibility to focus on areas and conditions of particular interest. A monitoring design that would facilitate most of these improvements would be to focus efforts on a limited number of watersheds for several years, then cycle to the next set of watersheds for several years, eventually returning to previously monitored watersheds to document changes.</p><p>Redesign of the water-quality monitoring program requires considerable effort and commitment from municipalities of Johnson County. However, the long-term benefit likely is a monitoring program that results in improved stream conditions and more effective management practices and efficient expenditure of resources.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sir20175089","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the Johnson County [Kans.] Stormwater Management Program","usgsCitation":"Rasmussen, T.J., and Paxson, C.R., 2017, Preliminary assessment of a water-quality monitoring program for total maximum daily loads in Johnson County, Kansas, January 2015 through June 2016: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2017–5089, 20 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20175089.","productDescription":"Report: vi, 20 p.; Data Release","onlineOnly":"Y","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-082145","costCenters":[{"id":353,"text":"Kansas Water Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":345128,"rank":3,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/F7GT5M2G","text":"USGS data release","description":"USGS data release","linkHelpText":"Water-quality data"},{"id":345101,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2017/5089/coverthb.jpg"},{"id":345102,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2017/5089/sir20175089.pdf","text":"Report","size":"2.33 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"SIR 2017-5089"}],"country":"United States","state":"Kansas","county":"Johnson County","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -95.08,\n              38.7\n            ],\n            [\n              -94.61,\n              38.7\n            ],\n            [\n              -94.61,\n              39.08\n            ],\n            [\n              -95.08,\n              39.08\n            ],\n            [\n              -95.08,\n              38.7\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","contact":"<p><a href=\"mailto:dc_ks@usgs.gov\" data-mce-href=\"mailto:dc_ks@usgs.gov\">Director</a>, <a href=\"https://ks.water.usgs.gov/\" data-mce-href=\"https://ks.water.usgs.gov/\">Kansas Water Science Center</a><br> U.S. Geological Survey<br> 4821 Quail Crest Place<br> Lawrence, KS 66049</p>","tableOfContents":"<ul><li>Acknowledgments</li><li>Abstract&nbsp;</li><li>Introduction</li><li>Methods</li><li>Results From Preliminary Assessment&nbsp;</li><li>Summary and Conclusions</li><li>References Cited</li></ul>","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":4,"text":"Rolla PSC"},"publishedDate":"2017-08-25","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-08-25","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"59a13729e4b0d7af54bc4a6c","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Rasmussen, Teresa J. 0000-0002-7023-3868 rasmuss@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7023-3868","contributorId":3336,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rasmussen","given":"Teresa","email":"rasmuss@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":353,"text":"Kansas Water Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":707789,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Paxson, Chelsea R. cpaxson@usgs.gov","contributorId":5887,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Paxson","given":"Chelsea","email":"cpaxson@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":true,"id":708355,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

The goal of the PNSQA was to assess the health of streams in the region by characterizing multiple water-quality factors that are stressors to in-stream aquatic life and by evaluating the relation between these stressors and the condition of biological communities. The effects of urbanization and agriculture on stream quality for the Puget Lowland and Willamette Valley Level III Ecoregions were the focus of this regional study. Findings will help inform the public and policymakers about human and environmental factors that are the most critical in affecting stream quality and, thus, provide insights into possible strategies to protect or improve the health of streams in the region.</p><p class=\"p1\">Land-use data were used in the study to identify and select sites within the region that ranged in levels of urban and agricultural development. A total of 88 sites were selected across the region—69 were on streams that explicitly spanned a range of urban land use in their watersheds, 8 were on streams in agricultural watersheds, and 11 were reference sites with little or no development in their watersheds. Depending on the type of land use, sites were sampled for contaminants, nutrients, and sediment for either a 4- or 10-week period during April, May, and June 2015. This water-quality “index period” was immediately followed with an ecological survey of all sites that included stream habitat, benthic algae, benthic macroinvertebrates, and fish. Additionally, streambed sediment was collected during the ecological survey for analysis of sediment chemistry and toxicity testing.</p><p class=\"p1\">This report provides a detailed description of the specific study components and methods of the PNSQA, including (1) surveys of stream habitat and aquatic biota, (2) discrete water sampling, (3) deployment of passive polar organic chemical integrative samplers for pesticides and pharmaceuticals, and (4) sampling of streambed sediment. At selected study sites, toxicity testing of streambed sediment, continuous water-quality monitoring, and daily pesticide sampling also were conducted and are

Over the last century, U.S. average temperature has increased 0.7–1.1°C, leading to an increased frost-free season, more frequent and intense heat waves, and increased frequency and intensity of winter storms; mean precipitation has increased, with increases in heavy downpours (Melillo et al. 2014). The dominant land uses in the U.S. are lands devoted to forest (671 million acres; 30%), pasture/range (614 million acres, 27%), and agriculture (408 million acres, 18%) (Economic Research Service 2011). Martinuzzi et al. (2015) projected changes in land use to the middle of the 21st century and found that at least 11% of the U.S. land cover (an area larger than Texas) was expected to change cover class (Figure 1). At the same time, mean temperature is expected to further increase 1.1–1.7°C by mid-century and 2.2–3.9°C by end-of-century (Melillo et al. 2014). In this age of unprecedented human-induced environmental change, understanding the relationships of species to the habitat and climatic conditions they experience is crucial to conservation and management. Improved understanding of relationships with habitat and climate will better inform management decisions designed to reduce crop depredation caused by blackbirds.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Ecology and Management of Blackbirds (Icteridae) in North America","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":15,"text":"Monograph"},"language":"English","publisher":"Taylor and Francis Group, LLC","publisherLocation":"Boca Raton, FL","isbn":"9781498799614","usgsCitation":"Forcey, G.M., and Thogmartin, W.E., 2017, Effects of habitat and climate change on blackbird populations, chap. <i>of</i> Ecology and Management of Blackbirds (Icteridae) in North America.","ipdsId":"IP-077678","costCenters":[{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":344530,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://www.crcpress.com/Ecology-and-Management-of-Blackbirds-Icteridae-in-North-America/Linz-Avery-Dolbeer/p/book/9781498799614"},{"id":345117,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"publishingServiceCenter":{"id":6,"text":"Columbus PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"599fe5b8e4b038630d0220f7","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Forcey, Greg M.","contributorId":195433,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Forcey","given":"Greg","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":707079,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"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":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":114,"text":"Alaska Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":707078,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

Given the limited knowledge about POPs in pelagic sea turtles and how plastic ingestion influences POP exposure, our objectives were to: 1) provide baseline contaminant levels of three species of pelagic Pacific sea turtles; and 2) assess trends of contaminant levels in relation to species, sex, length, body condition and capture location. In addition, we hypothesized that if ingesting plastic is a significant source of POP exposure, then the amount of ingested plastic may be correlated to POP concentrations accumulated in fat. To address our objectives we compared POP concentrations in fat samples to previously described amounts of ingested plastic from the same turtles. Fat samples from 25 Pacific pelagic sea turtles [2 loggerhead (</span><i>Caretta caretta</i><span>), 6 green (</span><i>Chelonia mydas</i><span>) and 17 olive ridley (</span><i>Lepidochelys olivacea</i><span>) turtles] were analyzed for 81 polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), 20 organochlorine pesticides, and 35 brominated flame-retardants. The olive ridley and loggerhead turtles had higher ΣDDTs (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane and metabolites) than ΣPCBs, at a ratio similar to biota measured in the South China Sea and southern California. Green turtles had a ratio close to 1:1. These pelagic turtles had lower POP levels than previously reported in nearshore turtles. POP concentrations were unrelated to the amounts of ingested plastic in olive ridleys, suggesting that their exposure to POPs is mainly through prey. In green turtles, concentrations of ΣPCBs were positively correlated with the number of plastic pieces ingested, but these findings were confounded by covariance with body condition index (BCI). Green turtles with a higher BCI had eaten more plastic and also had higher POPs. Taken together, our findings suggest that sea turtles accumulate most POPs through their prey rather than marine debris.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.scitotenv.2017.07.242","usgsCitation":"Clukey, K., Lepczyk, C.A., Balazs, G.H., Work, T.M., Li, Q.X., Bachman, M.J., and Lynch, J.M., 2017, Persistent organic pollutants in fat of three species of Pacific pelagic longline caught sea turtles: Accumulation in relation to ingested plastic marine debris: Science of the Total Environment, v. 610-611, no. 1, p. 402-411, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2017.07.242.","productDescription":"10 p.","startPage":"402","endPage":"411","ipdsId":"IP-089214","costCenters":[{"id":456,"text":"National Wildlife Health Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":469589,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2017.07.242","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":345093,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"otherGeospatial":"Pacific Ocean","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -220.35546874999997,\n              -15\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.16796875,\n              -15\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.16796875,\n              36.03133177633187\n            ],\n            [\n              -220.35546874999997,\n              36.03133177633187\n            ],\n            [\n              -220.35546874999997,\n              -15\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"610-611","issue":"1","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":6,"text":"Columbus PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"599fe5b4e4b038630d0220e7","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Clukey, Katharine","contributorId":195807,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Clukey","given":"Katharine","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708286,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Lepczyk, Christopher A.","contributorId":192485,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Lepczyk","given":"Christopher","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708287,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Balazs, George H.","contributorId":127680,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Balazs","given":"George","email":"","middleInitial":"H.","affiliations":[{"id":7109,"text":"NOAA, National Marine Fisheries Service, Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center, 1845 Wasp Boulevard, Building 176, Honolulu, HI 96818.","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":708288,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Work, Thierry M. 0000-0002-4426-9090 thierry_work@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4426-9090","contributorId":1187,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Work","given":"Thierry","email":"thierry_work@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":456,"text":"National Wildlife Health Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":708285,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Li, Qing X.","contributorId":195808,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Li","given":"Qing","email":"","middleInitial":"X.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708289,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Bachman, Melanie J.","contributorId":195809,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Bachman","given":"Melanie","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708290,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Lynch, Jennifer M.","contributorId":192486,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Lynch","given":"Jennifer","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708291,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}

Analyses of these studies demonstrate that storm-induced erosion and sediment transport\r\noccurred throughout the study area in water depths up to 30 m. Acoustic backscatter patterns were observed to\r\nmove from ~1 m to 450 m with a mean of 20 m and movement tended to decrease with increasing water depth.\r\nThese patterns indicate that both of the primary inner continental shelf sedimentary features in the study area,\r\nlinear sorted bedforms offshore of eastern Fire Island and shoreface-attached sand ridges offshore of central and\r\nwestern Fire island, migrated alongshore to the southwest. The migration of the sorted bedforms represents the\r\nmodification of an active ravinement surface and is thought to have liberated a significant volume of sediment.\r\nComparison of isopach maps of sediment thickness show that the volume of modern sediment composing the\r\nlower shoreface and shoreface-attached sand ridges decreased by ~2.8 × 106 m3 across the ~73 km2 of\r\ncommon seafloor mapped in both surveys. However, a similar analysis for the relatively calmer 15-yr period\r\nprior to 2011 revealed significant accretion. This allows speculation that the shoreface-attached sand ridges are\r\nmaintained over decadal timescales via sediment supplied through erosion of Pleistocene outwash and lower\r\nHolocene transgressive channel-fill deposits exposed on the inner continental shelf, but that the sand ridges also\r\nperiodically erode and move to the southwest during large storm events. Analyses show that significant storminduced\r\nerosion and sediment transport occurs far seaward of the 5 to 9 m depth of closure assumed for Fire\r\nIsland, where it is thought that an onshore-directed sediment flux from the inner continental shelf to the littoral\r\nsystem is required to balance the coastal sediment budget. It is also thought that the morphology of the\r\nshoreface-attached sand ridges controls the persistent shape of the adjacent shoreline through modification of\r\nincident waves. Thus, we suggest that the sediment dynamics of the inner continental shelf and both storminduced\r\nand anthropogenic modification of the field of shoreface-attached sand ridges be considered in future\r\ncoastal resiliency planning.","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.margeo.2017.07.010","usgsCitation":"Schwab, W.C., Baldwin, W.E., Warner, J., List, J.H., Denny,

We captured mallards (<i>Anas platyrhynchos</i>) throughout the non-breeding season (August–April) of 2012–2015 in Fairbanks and Anchorage, the two largest cities in Alaska, to assess patterns of IAV infection and antibody production using molecular methods and a standard serologic assay. In addition, we used virus isolation, genetic sequencing, and a virus microneutralization assay to characterize viral subtypes and to evaluate the immune response of mallards captured on multiple occasions through time. We captured 923 mallards during three successive sampling years: Fairbanks in 2012/13 and 2013/14, and Anchorage in 2014/15. Prevalence varied by age, season, and year/site with high and relatively stable estimates throughout the non-breeding season. Infected birds were detected in all locations/seasons except early-winter in Fairbanks during 2013/14. IAVs with 17 combinations of hemagglutinin (H1–5, H7–9, H11, H12) and neuraminidase (N1–6, N8, N9) subtypes were isolated. Antibodies to IAVs were detected throughout autumn and winter for all sampling locations and years, however, seroprevalence was higher among adults and varied among years. Mallards exhibited individual heterogeneity with regard to immune response, providing instances of both seroconversion and seroreversion to detected viral subtypes. The probability that an individual transitioned from one serostatus to another varied by age, with juvenile mallards having higher rates of seroconversion and seroreversion than adults. Our study provides evidence that a diversity of IAVs circulate in populations of mallards wintering at urban locations in Alaska, and we suggest waterfowl wintering at high-latitudes may play an important role in maintenance of viruses across breeding seasons.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"PLoS","doi":"10.1371/journal.pone.0183505","usgsCitation":"Spivey, T.J., Lindberg, M.S., Meixell, B.W., Smith, K.R., Puryear, W.B., Davis, K., Runstadler, J.A., Stallknecht, D.E., and Ramey, A.M., 2017, Maintenance of influenza A viruses and antibody response in mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) sampled during the non-breeding season in Alaska: PLoS ONE, v. 12, no. 8, Article e0183505;

Fermentation of acetylene was serendipitously discovered during C2H2 block assays of N2O reductase, and <i>Pelobacter acetylenicus</i> was shown to grow on C2H2 via acetylene hydratase (AH). AH is a W-containing, catabolic, low-redox-potential enzyme that, unlike nitrogenase (N2ase), is specific for acetylene. Acetylene fermentation is a rare metabolic process that is well characterized only in P. acetylenicus DSM3246 and DSM3247 and <i>Pelobacter</i> sp. strain SFB93. To better understand the genetic controls for AH activity, we sequenced the genomes of the three acetylene-fermenting <i>Pelobacter</i> strains. Genome assembly and annotation produced three novel genomes containing gene sequences for AH, with two copies being present in SFB93. In addition, gene sequences for all five compulsory genes for iron-molybdenum N2ase were also present in the three genomes, indicating the cooccurrence of two acetylene transformation pathways. Nitrogen fixation growth assays showed that DSM3426 could ferment acetylene in the absence of ammonium, but no ethylene was produced. However, SFB93 degraded acetylene and, in the absence of ammonium, produced ethylene, indicating an active N2ase. Diazotrophic growth was observed under N2 but not in experimental controls incubated under argon. SFB93 exhibits acetylene fermentation and nitrogen fixation, the only known biochemical mechanisms for acetylene transformation. Our results indicate complex interactions between N2ase and AH and suggest novel evolutionary pathways for these relic enzymes from early Earth to modern days.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"American Society of Microbiology","doi":"10.1128/AEM.01198-17","usgsCitation":"Akob, D.M., Baesman, S., Sutton, J.M., Fierst, J.L., Mumford, A.C., Shrestha, Y., Poret-Peterson, A.T., Bennett, S.C., Dunlap, D.S., Haase, K.B., and Oremland, R.S., 2017, Detection of diazotrophy in the acetylene-fermenting anaerobe Pelobacter sp. strain SFB93: Applied and Environmental Microbiology, v. 17, no. 83, p. 1-10, https://doi.org/10.1128/AEM.01198-17.","productDescription":"10 p.","startPage":"1","endPage":"10","ipdsId":"IP-081526","costCenters":[{"id":436,"text":"National Research Program -

Historical (1940–1950) chloride concentration data of glacial aquifer wells in the study area indicate the presence of four wedges of saltwater intrusion that may have been caused by industrial pumpage. The limited recharge capability of the aquifer, due to impervious surfaces and the 22.7 million liters per day (mld) of reported industrial pumpage early in the 20th Century was probably the cause for the saltwater intrusion and the persistence of the historical saltwater intrusion wedges over time. Recent drilling of wells provided new information on the hydrogeology and extent of saltwater intrusion of the glacial aquifer overlying bedrock. The new observation wells provided ground-water level, chloride concentration, hydraulic conductivity, and borehole geophysical data of the glacial aquifer. The glacial sediments range in thickness from less than 0.3 m to more than 76.2 m within the study area. A linear relation between Electromagnetic-induction (EM) conductivity log response and measured chloride concentration was determined. Using this relation, chloride concentration was estimated in parts of the glacial aquifer where sampling was not possible. EM logging is an effective tool to monitor changes in saltwater intrusion wedges.","language":"English","publisher":"MDPI","doi":"10.3390/w9090631","usgsCitation":"Stumm, F., and Como, M.D., 2017,

Human health risks from exposure to zoonotic pathogens aerosolized during manure irrigation are not well understood. </p><p>OBJECTIVES: We aimed to a) estimate human health risks due to aerosolized zoonotic pathogens downwind of spray-irrigated dairy manure; and b) determine which factors (e.g., distance, weather conditions) have the greatest influence on risk estimates. </p><p>METHODS: We sampled downwind air concentrations of manure-borne fecal indicators and zoonotic pathogens during 21 full-scale dairy manure irri- gation events at three farms. We fit these data to hierarchical empirical models and used model outputs in a quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) to estimate risk [probability of acute gastrointestinal illness (AGI)] for individuals exposed to spray-irrigated dairy manure containing Campylobacter jejuni, enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC), or Salmonella spp. </p><p>RESULTS: Median risk estimates from Monte Carlo simulations ranged from 10−5 to 10−2 and decreased with distance from the source. Risk estimates for Salmonella or EHEC-related AGI were most sensitive to the assumed level of pathogen prevalence in dairy manure, while risk estimates for C. jejuni were not sensitive to any single variable. Airborne microbe concentrations were negatively associated with distance and positively associated with wind speed, both of which were retained in models as a significant predictor more often than relative humidity, solar irradiation, or temperature. </p><p>CONCLUSIONS: Our model-based estimates suggest that reducing pathogen prevalence and concentration in source manure would reduce the risk of AGI from exposure to manure irrigation, and that increasing the distance from irrigated manure (i.e., setbacks) and limiting irrigation to times of low wind speed may also reduce risk.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Department of Health and Human Services","doi":"10.1289/EHP283","usgsCitation":"Burch, T., Spencer, S.K., Stokdyk, J.P., Kieke, B.A., Larson, R., Firnstahl, A.D., Rule, A.M., and Borchardt, M.A., 2017, Quantitative microbial risk assessment for spray irrigation of dairy manure based on an empirical fate and transport model: Environmental Health Perspectives, v. 125, no. 8, p. 1-11, https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP283.","productDescription":"Article 087009; 11 p.","startPage":"1","endPage":"11","ipdsId":"IP-074697","costCenters":[{"id":677,"text":"Wisconsin Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":469590,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1289/ehp283","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":345097,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","volume":"125","issue":"8","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":6,"text":"Columbus PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"599fe5b7e4b038630d0220f1","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Burch, Tucker R.","contributorId":195801,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Burch","given":"Tucker R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708266,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Spencer, Susan K.","contributorId":181738,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Spencer","given":"Susan","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708267,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Stokdyk, Joel P. 0000-0003-2887-6277 jstokdyk@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2887-6277","contributorId":193848,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Stokdyk","given":"Joel","email":"jstokdyk@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":677,"text":"Wisconsin Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":37947,"text":"Upper Midwest Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":708265,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Kieke, Burney A","contributorId":195802,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kieke","given":"Burney","email":"","middleInitial":"A","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708268,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Larson, Rebecca A","contributorId":195803,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Larson","given":"Rebecca A","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708269,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Firnstahl, Aaron D. 0000-0003-2686-7596 afirnstahl@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2686-7596","contributorId":168296,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Firnstahl","given":"Aaron","email":"afirnstahl@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[{"id":677,"text":"Wisconsin Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":37947,"text":"Upper Midwest Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":708270,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Rule, Ana M","contributorId":195804,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Rule","given":"Ana","email":"","middleInitial":"M","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708271,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Borchardt, Mark A. 0000-0002-6471-2627","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6471-2627","contributorId":151033,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Borchardt","given":"Mark","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":6684,"text":"USDA Forest Service, Southern Research Station, Aiken, SC","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":708272,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8}]}}

Staff of CCNWR manipulate water levels and vegetation in the 17 units of the CCNWR to provide conditions favorable to these two important guilds. Although both guilds include focal species at multiple planning levels and complement objectives to provide a diversity of wetland community types and water regimes, additional decision support is needed for choosing how much emergent marsh and moist-soil habitat should be provided through annual management actions.</p><p>To develop decision guidance for balanced delivery of high-energy waterfowl habitat and breeding marsh bird habitat, two measureable management objectives were identified: nonbreeding <i>Anas Linnaeus</i> (dabbling duck) use-days and <i>Rallus elegans</i> (king rail) occupancy of managed units. Three different composite management actions were identified to achieve these objectives. Each composite management action is a unique combination of growing season water regime and soil disturbance. The three composite management actions are intense moist-soil management (moist-soil), intermediate moist-soil (intermediate), and perennial management, which idles soils disturbance (perennial). The two management objectives and three management options were used in a multi-criteria decision analysis to indicate resource allocations and inform annual decision making. Outcomes of the composite management actions were predicted in two ways and multi-criteria decision analysis was used with each set of predictions. First, outcomes were predicted using expert-elicitation techniques and a panel of subject matter experts. Second, empirical data from the Integrated Waterbird Management and Monitoring Initiative collected between 2010 and 2013 were used; where data were lacking, expert judgment was used. Also, a Bayesian decision model was developed that can be updated with monitoring data in an adaptive management framework.</p><p>Optimal resource allocations were identified in the form of portfolios of composite management actions for the 17 units in the framework. A constrained optimization (linear programming) was used to maximize an objective function that was based on the sum of dabbling duck and king rail utility. The constraints, which included management costs and a minimum energetic carrying capacity (total moist-soil acres), were applied to balance habitat delivery for dabbling ducks and king rails. Also, the framework was constrained in some cases to apply certain management actions of interest to certain management units; these constraints allowed for a variety of hypothetical Habitat Management Plans, including one based on output from a hydrogeomorphic study of the refuge. The decision analysis thus created numerous refuge-wide scenarios, each representing a unique mix of options (one for each of 17 units) and associated benefits (i.e., outcomes with respect to two management objectives).</p><p>Prepared in collaboration with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the decision framework presented here is designed as a decision-aiding tool for CCNWR managers who ultimately make difficult decisions each year with multiple objectives, multiple management units, and the complexity of natural systems. The framework also provides a way to document hypotheses about how the managed system functions. Furthermore, the framework identifies specific monitoring needs and illustrates precisely how monitoring data will be used for decision-aiding and adaptive management.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/ofr20171051","usgsCitation":"Loges, B.W., Lyons, J.E., and Tavernia, B.G., 2017, Balancing habitat delivery for breeding marsh birds and nonbreeding waterfowl: An integrated waterbird management and monitoring approach at Clarence Cannon National Wildlife Refuge, Missouri: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report <br> 2017–1051, 28 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr20171051.","productDescription":"vii, 28 p.","onlineOnly":"Y","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","ipdsId":"IP-074602","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":50464,"text":"Eastern Ecological Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":344988,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2017/1051/ofr20171051.pdf","text":"Report","size":"6.70","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"OFR 2017-1051"},{"id":344987,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2017/1051/coverthb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Missouri","otherGeospatial":"Clarence Cannon National Wildlife Refuge","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -90.78088760375975,\n              39.250467248225746\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.73891639709473,\n              39.250467248225746\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.73891639709473,\n              39.27658360383146\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.78088760375975,\n              39.27658360383146\n            ],\n            [\n              -90.78088760375975,\n              39.250467248225746\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","contact":"<p>Director, <a href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/eesc\" data-mce-href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/eesc\">Eastern Ecological Science Center</a><br>U.S. Geological Survey <br>12100 Beech Forest Road, Ste 4039<br>Laurel, MD 20708</p>","tableOfContents":"<ul><li>Abstract&nbsp;</li><li>Background</li><li>Composite Management Actions&nbsp;</li><li>Consequences of Composite Management Actions</li><li>Comparing Alternative Composite Management Actions and Assessing Tradeoffs&nbsp;</li><li>Updates to Model Predictions and Expected Utility&nbsp;</li><li>Adaptive Management Using the Bayesian Decision Model&nbsp;</li><li>Management Considerations</li><li>Changes to the Bayesian Decision Model&nbsp;</li><li>Summary</li><li>References Cited</li><li>Appendix 1.

We suggest additional research to determine factors that influence parasite infection of intermediate and definitive hosts, particularly mole crabs, given that they are a vital resource for migrating

This region is complex and dynamic with high annual variation in temperature and light. Through deeper time, Alaska has experienced major climate extremes over much longer periodicity. For example, the Quaternary Period (the last ~2.5 million years), commonly known as the Ice Age, was punctuated by more than 20 major glacial-interglacial cycles. During glacial phases, water was locked up in ice sheets that covered much of North America, and the resulting lower sea levels exposed a land connection between Alaska and Siberia, a combined region known as Beringia (Figure 1). This isthmus provided vast expanses of land for species to inhabit, provided they could withstand potentially harsh polar conditions. Each extended glacial phase periodically transitioned into a shorter interglacial warm phase. These climate reversals melted continental ice sheets to expose corridors for reinvasion of terrestrial species, particularly those associated with forested habitats further south. Those species that survived at northern latitudes through repeated glacial-interglacial cycles formed the Arctic tundra communities that persist today. At present, Alaska supports diverse communities associated with both tundra and forests (Figure 2). These communities often interact with one another across latitudinal and elevational gradients, with tundra species generally found further north or higher in elevation. Alaska’s climate is continuing to change today, strongly influencing local environments and the distribution and dynamics of wildlife species.","language":"English","publisher":"National Park Service","usgsCitation":"Hope, A.G., Waltari, E., Morse, N.R., Flamme, M., Cook, J.A., and Talbot, S.L., 2017, Small mammals as indicators of climate, biodiversity, and ecosystem change: Alaska Park Science, v. 16, no. 1, p. 72-78.","productDescription":"7 p.","startPage":"72","endPage":"78","ipdsId":"IP-070300","costCenters":[{"id":117,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology WTEB","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":345044,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":344962,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://www.nps.gov/articles/aps-16-1-16.htm"}],"country":"Russia, United States","state":"Alaska, Siberia","volume":"16","issue":"1","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":12,"text":"Tacoma PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"599e9445e4b04935557fe9a8","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Hope, Andrew G. 0000-0003-3814-2891 ahope@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3814-2891","contributorId":4309,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hope","given":"Andrew","email":"ahope@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[{"id":117,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology WTEB","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":708245,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Waltari, Eric","contributorId":105946,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Waltari","given":"Eric","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708246,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Morse, Nathan R.","contributorId":195800,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Morse","given":"Nathan","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708247,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Flamme, M.J.","contributorId":88171,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Flamme","given":"M.J.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708248,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Talbot, Sandra L. 0000-0002-3312-7214 stalbot@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3312-7214","contributorId":140512,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Talbot","given":"Sandra","email":"stalbot@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":114,"text":"Alaska Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":117,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology WTEB","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":708045,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Cook, Joseph A.","contributorId":70318,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Cook","given":"Joseph","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708249,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

The Task Force has focused its efforts on three primary tasks:\n1) updating scenarios of global mean sea level (GMSL) rise, 2) integrating the global scenarios with regional factors contributing to sea level change for the entire U.S. coastline, and 3) incorporating these regionally appropriate scenarios within coastal risk management tools and capabilities deployed by individual agencies in support of the needs of specific stakeholder groups and user communities. This technical report focuses on the first two of these tasks and reports on the production of gridded relative sea\nlevel (RSL, which includes both ocean-level change and vertical land motion) projections for the United States associated with an updated set of GMSL scenarios. In addition to supporting the longer-term Task Force effort, this new product will be an important input into the USGCRP Sustained Assessment process and upcoming Fourth National Climate Assessment (NCA4) due in 2018. This report also serves as a keytechnical input into the in-progress USGCRP Climate Science Special Report (CSSR).","language":"English","usgsCitation":"Sweet, W., Kopp, R., Weaver, C., Obeysekera, J., Horton, R.M., Thieler, E.R., and Zervas, C., 2017, Global and regional sea level rise scenarios for the United States, Report: viii, 55 p.; Appedixes A-D.","productDescription":"Report: viii, 55 p.; Appedixes A-D","numberOfPages":"75","ipdsId":"IP-081951","costCenters":[{"id":678,"text":"Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":345043,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":345008,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/publications/techrpt83_Global_and_Regional_SLR_Scenarios_for_the_US_final.pdf"}],"geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -259.453125,\n              -3.864254615721396\n            ],\n            [\n              -39.375,\n              -3.864254615721396\n            ],\n            [\n              -39.375,\n              70.72897946208789\n            ],\n            [\n              -259.453125,\n              70.72897946208789\n            ],\n            [\n              -259.453125,\n              -3.864254615721396\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":11,"text":"Pembroke PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"599e9445e4b04935557fe9a3","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Sweet, W.","contributorId":195782,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Sweet","given":"W.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708183,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Kopp, R.E.","contributorId":195783,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kopp","given":"R.E.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708184,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Weaver, C.P.","contributorId":195784,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Weaver","given":"C.P.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708185,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Obeysekera, J","contributorId":195785,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Obeysekera","given":"J","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":708186,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Horton, Radley M.","contributorId":139267,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Horton","given":"Radley","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":7171,"text":"Columbia University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":708187,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Thieler, E.

The hydraulic model was calibrated by using the most current stage-discharge relations at USGS streamgage 03343010, Wabash River at Memorial Bridge at Vincennes, Ind., and preliminary high-water marks from a high-water event on April 27, 2013. The calibrated hydraulic model was then used to determine 19 water-surface profiles for flood stages at 1-foot intervals referenced to the streamgage datum and ranging from 10 feet (ft) or near bankfull to 28 ft, the highest stage of the current stage-discharge rating curve. The simulated water-surface profiles were then combined with a Geographic Information System (GIS) digital elevation model (DEM, derived from Light Detection and Ranging [lidar] data having a 0.98-ft vertical accuracy and 4.9-ft horizontal resolution) in order to delineate the area flooded at each water level.</p><p>The availability of these maps—along with Internet information regarding current stage from the USGS streamgage 03343010, and forecast stream stages from the NWS AHPS—provides emergency management personnel and residents with information that is critical for flood response activities such as evacuations and road closures, as well as for post-flood recovery efforts.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sir20175073","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs","usgsCitation":"Fowler, K.K., and Menke, C.D., 2017, Flood-inundation maps for the Wabash River at Memorial Bridge at Vincennes, Indiana: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2017–5073, 10 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20175073.","productDescription":"Report: vi, 10 p.; Data Release","numberOfPages":"20","onlineOnly":"Y","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","ipdsId":"IP-081973","costCenters":[{"id":27231,"text":"Indiana-Kentucky Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":345020,"rank":3,"type":{"id":30,"text":"Data Release"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.5066/F7ZG6QGC","text":"USGS Data Release","description":"USGS Data Release","linkHelpText":"Wabash River at Memorial Bridge, Vincennes, Indiana, Flood-Inundation Geospatial Data Sets and Metadata"},{"id":345018,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2017/5073/coverthb.jpg"},{"id":345019,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2017/5073/sir20175073.pdf","text":"Report","size":"1.12 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"SIR 2017–5073"}],"country":"United States","state":"Indiana","city":"Vincennes","otherGeospatial":"Wabash River","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -87.74,\n              38.46434231629165\n            ],\n            [\n              -87.19161987304688,\n              38.46434231629165\n            ],\n            [\n              -87.19161987304688,\n              38.89744587262311\n            ],\n            [\n              -87.74,\n              38.89744587262311\n            ],\n            [\n              -87.74,\n              38.46434231629165\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","contact":"<p><a href=\"mailto: dc_in@usgs.gov\" data-mce-href=\"mailto: dc_in@usgs.gov\">Director</a>, <a href=\"https://in.water.usgs.gov/\" data-mce-href=\"https://in.water.usgs.gov/\">Indiana Water Science Center</a><br> U.S. Geological Survey<br> 5957 Lakeside Boulevard<br> Indianapolis, IN 46278–1996</p>","tableOfContents":"<ul><li>Acknowledgments<br></li><li>Abstract<br></li><li>Introduction<br></li><li>Creation of Flood-Inundation Map Library<br></li><li>Summary<br></li><li>References Cited<br></li></ul>","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":6,"text":"Columbus PSC"},"publishedDate":"2017-08-23","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-08-23","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"599e9444e4b04935557fe99f","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Fowler, Kathleen K. 0000-0002-0107-3848 kkfowler@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0107-3848","contributorId":2439,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Fowler","given":"Kathleen","email":"kkfowler@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[{"id":27231,"text":"Indiana-Kentucky Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":35860,"text":"Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":346,"text":"Indiana Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":708214,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Menke, Chad D. cdmenke@usgs.gov","contributorId":3209,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Menke","given":"Chad","email":"cdmenke@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":true,"id":708216,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}
