Wetlands on individual National Wildlife Refuges (Refuges) may be at risk of increased sedimentation because of land use and water management practices. Increased sedimentation can reduce wetland habitat quality by altering hydrologic function, degrading water quality, and inhibiting growth of vegetation and invertebrates. On Refuges negatively affected by increased sedimentation, managers have to address complex questions about how to best remediate and mitigate the negative effects. The best way to account for these complexities is often not clear. On other Refuges, managers may not know whether sedimentation is a problem. Decision makers in the Refuge System may need to allocate resources to studying which Refuges could be at risk. Such analyses would help them understand where to direct support for managing increased sedimentation. In this paper, we summarize a case study demonstrating the use of decision-analytic tools in the development of a sedimentation management plan for Agassiz National Wildlife Refuge, Minnesota. Using what we learned from that process, we surveyed other Refuges in U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Region 3 (an area encompassing the states of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, and Wisconsin) and Region 6 (an area encompassing the states of Colorado, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming) about whether they experience sediment-related impacts to management. Our results show that cases of management being negatively affected by increased sedimentation are not isolated. We suggest that the Refuge System conduct a comprehensive and systematic assessment of increased sedimentation among Refuges to understand the importance of sedimentation in context with other management problems that Refuges face. The results of such an assessment could guide how the Refuge System allocates resources to studying and managing widespread stressors.</p></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Allen Press","doi":"10.3996/012016-JFWM-004","usgsCitation":"Post van der Burg, M., Jenni, K., Nieman, T.L., Eash, J., and Knutsen, G.A., 2017, Understanding and finding solutions to the problem of sedimentation in the National Wildlife Refuge System: Journal of Fish and Wildlife Management, v. 8, no. 2, p. 648-660, https://doi.org/10.3996/012016-JFWM-004.","productDescription":"13 p.","startPage":"648","endPage":"660","ipdsId":"IP-072192","costCenters":[{"id":480,"text":"Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":554,"text":"Science and Decisions Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":487684,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.3996/012016-jfwm-004","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":390235,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Minnesota","otherGeospatial":"Agassiz 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              -96.08642578125,\n              48.193556524687395\n            ],\n            [\n              -95.77194213867188,\n              48.193556524687395\n            ],\n            [\n              -95.77194213867188,\n              48.43011178780495\n            ],\n            [\n              -96.08642578125,\n              48.43011178780495\n            ],\n            [\n              -96.08642578125,\n              48.193556524687395\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"8","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Post van der Burg, Max 0000-0002-3943-4194 maxpostvanderburg@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3943-4194","contributorId":4947,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Post van der Burg","given":"Max","email":"maxpostvanderburg@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":480,"text":"Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":824612,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Jenni, Karen 0000-0001-9927-7509","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9927-7509","contributorId":219401,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Jenni","given":"Karen","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":554,"text":"Science and Decisions Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":824613,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Nieman, Timothy L. 0000-0002-8585-0471","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8585-0471","contributorId":204543,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Nieman","given":"Timothy","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":36953,"text":"Decision Applications, Inc.","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":824614,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Eash, Josh D.","contributorId":267175,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Eash","given":"Josh D.","affiliations":[{"id":55428,"text":"U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 5600 American Blvd. W., Bloomington, MN","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":824615,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Knutsen, Gregory A.","contributorId":193104,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Knutsen","given":"Gregory","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":824616,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}

Unfortunately, many fishes endemic to rivers have suffered declines in abundance and distribution suggesting that alterations to lotic environments have negatively influenced native fish populations. Of the 35 fishes native to the Colorado River basin (CRB), seven are considered either endangered, threatened, or species of special concern. As such, the conservation of fishes native to the CRB is a primary interest for natural resource management agencies. One of the major factors limiting the conservation and management of fishes endemic to the CRB is the lack of basic information on their ecology and population characteristics. We sought to describe the population dynamics and demographics of three populations of Bluehead Suckers (</span><i>Catostomus discobolus</i><span>) and Flannelmouth Suckers (</span><i>C. latipinnis</i><span>) in Utah. Additionally, we evaluated the potential influence of altered flow regimes on the recruitment and growth of Bluehead Suckers and Flannelmouth Suckers. Mortality of Bluehead Suckers and Flannelmouth Suckers from the Green, Strawberry, and White rivers was comparable to other populations. Growth of Bluehead Suckers and Flannelmouth Suckers was higher in the Green, Strawberry, and White rivers when compared to other populations in the CRB. Similarly, recruitment indices suggested that Bluehead Suckers and Flannelmouth Suckers in the Green, Strawberry, and White rivers had more stable recruitment than other populations in the CRB. Models relating growth and recruitment to hydrological indices provided little explanatory power. Notwithstanding, our results indicate that Bluehead Suckers and Flannelmouth Suckers in the Green, Strawberry, and White rivers represent fairly stable populations and provide baseline information that will be valuable for the effective management and conservation of the species.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"The American Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists","doi":"10.1643/CE-16-554","usgsCitation":"Klein, Z.B., Breen, M.J., and Quist, M.C., 2017, Population characteristics and the influence of discharge on Bluehead Sucker and Flannelmouth Sucker: Copeia, v. 105, no. 2, p. 375-388, https://doi.org/10.1643/CE-16-554.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"375","endPage":"388","ipdsId":"IP-081127","costCenters":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":348399,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Utah","otherGeospatial":"Green River, Strawberry River, White River","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -111.04705810546874,\n              39.38950933076637\n            ],\n            [\n              -109.0447998046875,\n              39.38950933076637\n            ],\n            [\n              -109.0447998046875,\n              40.992337919312305\n            ],\n            [\n              -111.04705810546874,\n              40.992337919312305\n            ],\n            [\n              -111.04705810546874,\n              39.38950933076637\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"105","issue":"2","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":12,"text":"Tacoma PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5a07e8b8e4b09af898c8cba3","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Klein, Zachary B.","contributorId":171709,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Klein","given":"Zachary","email":"","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":720987,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Breen, Matthew J.","contributorId":200099,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Breen","given":"Matthew","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":720988,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Quist, Michael C. 0000-0001-8268-1839 mquist@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8268-1839","contributorId":171392,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Quist","given":"Michael","email":"mquist@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":717329,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

The Permafrost Region Pond and Lake (PeRL) database presents the results of a circum-Arctic effort to map ponds and lakes from modern (2002–2013) high-resolution aerial and satellite imagery with a resolution of 5 m or better. The database also includes historical imagery from 1948 to 1965 with a resolution of 6 m or better. PeRL includes 69 maps covering a wide range of environmental conditions from tundra to boreal regions and from continuous to discontinuous permafrost zones. Waterbody maps are linked to regional permafrost landscape maps which provide information on permafrost extent, ground ice volume, geology, and lithology. This paper describes waterbody classification and accuracy, and presents statistics of waterbody distribution for each site.

Circumstances special to this case include (1) the sensitivity of an isolated resort area to media hype of potential high-impact volcanic and earthquake hazards and its impact on potential recreational visitors and the local economy, (2) a small permanent population (~8000), which facilitates face-to-face communication between scientists monitoring the hazard, civil authorities, and the public, and (3) the relatively frequent turnover of people in positions of civil authority, which requires a continuing education effort on the nature of caldera unrest and related hazards. Because of delays associated with communication protocols between the State and Federal governments during the onset of unrest, local civil authorities and the public first learned that the U.S. Geological Survey was about to release a notice of potential volcanic hazards associated with earthquake activity and 25-cm uplift of the resurgent dome in the center of the caldera through an article in the Los Angeles Times published in May 1982. The immediate reaction was outrage and denial. Gradual acceptance that the hazard was real required over a decade of frequent meetings between scientists and civil authorities together with public presentations underscored by frequently felt earthquakes and the onset of magmatic CO</span><sub>2</sub><span><span>&nbsp;</span>emissions in 1990 following a 11-month long earthquake swarm beneath Mammoth Mountain on the southwest rim of the caldera. Four fatalities, one on 24 May 1998 and three on 6 April 2006, underscored the hazard posed by the CO</span><sub>2</sub><span><span>&nbsp;</span>emissions. Initial response plans developed by county and state agencies in response to the volcanic unrest began with “The Mono County Volcano Contingency Plan” and “Plan Caldera” by the California Office of Emergency Services in 1982–84. They subsequently became integrated in the regularly updated County Emergency Operation Plan. The alert level system employed by the USGS also evolved from the three-level “Notice-Watch-Warning” system of the early 1980s through a five level color-code to the current “Normal-Advisory-Watch-Warning” ground-based system in conjunction with the international 4-level aviation color-code for volcanic ash hazards. Field trips led by the scientists proved to be a particularly effective means of acquainting local residents and officials with the geologically active environment in which they reside. Relative caldera quiescence from 2000 through 2011 required continued efforts to remind an evolving population that the hazards posed by the 1980–2000 unrest persisted. Renewed uplift of the resurgent dome from 2011 to 2014 was accompanied by an increase in low-level earthquake activity in the caldera and beneath Mammoth Mountain and continues through May 2016. As unrest levels continue to wax and wane, so will the communication challenges.</span></p>","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Advances in volcanology","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":15,"text":"Monograph"},"language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/11157_2016_32","usgsCitation":"Hill, D.P., Mangan, M.T., and McNutt, S.R., 2017, Volcanic unrest and hazard communication in Long Valley Volcanic Region, California, chap. <i>of</i> Advances in volcanology, p. 1-17, https://doi.org/10.1007/11157_2016_32.","productDescription":"17 p.","startPage":"1","endPage":"17","ipdsId":"IP-071037","costCenters":[{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":487574,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1007/11157_2016_32","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":343442,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"publishingServiceCenter":{"id":12,"text":"Tacoma PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-03-26","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"595f4c3ae4b0d1f9f057e321","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Hill, David P. hill@usgs.gov","contributorId":2600,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Hill","given":"David","email":"hill@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":615,"text":"Volcano Hazards Program","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":114,"text":"Alaska Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":703647,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Mangan, Margaret T. 0000-0002-5273-8053 mmangan@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5273-8053","contributorId":3343,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Mangan","given":"Margaret","email":"mmangan@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[{"id":615,"text":"Volcano Hazards Program","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":114,"text":"Alaska Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":703648,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"McNutt, Stephen R.","contributorId":38133,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"McNutt","given":"Stephen","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":703649,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Viable life exists in permafrost tens of thousands of years old but we know little about the metabolic and physiological adaptations to the challenges presented by life in frozen ground over geologic time. In this study we asked whether increasing age and the associated stressors drive adaptive changes in community composition and function. We conducted deep metagenomic and 16 S rRNA gene sequencing across a Pleistocene permafrost chronosequence from 19 000 to 33 000 years before present (kyr). We found that age markedly affected community composition and reduced diversity. Reconstruction of paleovegetation from metagenomic sequence suggests vegetation differences in the paleo record are not responsible for shifts in community composition and function. Rather, we observed shifts consistent with long-term survival strategies in extreme cryogenic environments. These include increased reliance on scavenging detrital biomass, horizontal gene transfer, chemotaxis, dormancy, environmental sensing and stress response. Our results identify traits that may enable survival in ancient cryoenvironments with no influx of energy or new materials.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Nature Publishing Group","doi":"10.1038/ismej.2017.93","usgsCitation":"Mackelprang, R., Burkert, A., Haw, M., Mahendrarajah, T., Conaway, C.H., Douglas, T.A., and Waldrop, M.P., 2017, Microbial survival strategies in ancient permafrost: insights from metagenomics: The ISME Journal, v. 11, p. 2305-2318, https://doi.org/10.1038/ismej.2017.93.","productDescription":"14 p.","startPage":"2305","endPage":"2318","ipdsId":"IP-079077","costCenters":[{"id":312,"text":"Geology, Minerals, Energy, and Geophysics Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":469704,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1038/ismej.2017.93","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":351313,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"11","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":14,"text":"Menlo Park PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-07-11","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5a7c1e7be4b00f54eb229349","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Mackelprang, Rachel","contributorId":200882,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Mackelprang","given":"Rachel","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":7080,"text":"California State University, Northridge","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":727775,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Burkert, Alexander","contributorId":201933,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Burkert","given":"Alexander","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":36305,"text":"CSU Northridge","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":727776,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Haw, Monica 0000-0001-5847-6448","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5847-6448","contributorId":201931,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Haw","given":"Monica","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":727777,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Mahendrarajah, Tara","contributorId":201934,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Mahendrarajah","given":"Tara","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":36305,"text":"CSU Northridge","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":727778,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Conaway, Christopher H. 0000-0002-0991-033X cconaway@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0991-033X","contributorId":5074,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Conaway","given":"Christopher","email":"cconaway@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"H.","affiliations":[{"id":438,"text":"National Research Program - Western Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":727779,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Douglas, Thomas A. 0000-0003-1314-1905","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1314-1905","contributorId":64553,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Douglas","given":"Thomas","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":33087,"text":"Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":true,"id":727780,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Waldrop, Mark P. 0000-0003-1829-7140 mwaldrop@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1829-7140","contributorId":1599,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Waldrop","given":"Mark","email":"mwaldrop@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":617,"text":"Volcano Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":615,"text":"Volcano Hazards Program","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":312,"text":"Geology, Minerals, Energy, and Geophysics Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":727781,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7}]}}

However, based on concentration alone, it can be difficult to identify which compounds may be of toxicological concern and should be prioritized for further monitoring, in-depth testing, or management. This can be problematic because toxicological characterization is lacking for many emerging contaminants. New sources of high-throughput screening (HTS) data, such as the ToxCast database, which contains information for over 9000 compounds screened through up to 1100 bioassays, are now available. Integrated analysis of chemical occurrence data with HTS data offers new opportunities to prioritize chemicals, sites, or biological effects for further investigation based on concentrations detected in the environment linked to relative potencies in pathway-based bioassays. As a case study, chemical occurrence data from a 2012 study in the Great Lakes Basin along with the ToxCast effects database were used to calculate exposure–activity ratios (EARs) as a prioritization tool. Technical considerations of data processing and use of the ToxCast database are presented and discussed. EAR prioritization identified multiple sites, biological pathways, and chemicals that warrant further investigation. Prioritized bioactivities from the EAR analysis were linked to discrete adverse outcome pathways to identify potential adverse outcomes and biomarkers for use in subsequent monitoring efforts.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"ACS","doi":"10.1021/acs.est.7b01613","usgsCitation":"Blackwell, B., Ankley, G., Corsi, S., DeCicco, L.A., Houck, K., Judson, R.S., Li, S., Martin, M.T., Murphy, E., Schroeder, A.L., Smith, E., Swintek, J., and Villeneuve, D.L., 2017, An “EAR” on environmental surveillance and monitoring: A case study on the use of Exposure–Activity Ratios (EARs) to prioritize sites, chemicals, and bioactivities of concern in Great Lakes waters: Environmental Science & Technology, v. 51, no. 15, p. 8713-8724, https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.7b01613.","productDescription":"12 p.","startPage":"8713","endPage":"8724","ipdsId":"IP-088064","costCenters":[{"id":677,"text":"Wisconsin Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":469709,"rank":0,"type":{"id":41,"text":"Open Access External Repository Page"},"url":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/6132252","text":"External Repository"},{"id":346899,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","otherGeospatial":"Great Lakes","volume":"51","issue":"15","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":6,"text":"Columbus PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-07-18","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"59e86835e4b05fe04cd4d1f0","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Blackwell, Brett R.","contributorId":173601,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Blackwell","given":"Brett R.","affiliations":[{"id":6914,"text":"U.S. Environmental Protection Agency","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":713482,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Ankley, Gerald T.","contributorId":177970,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Ankley","given":"Gerald T.","affiliations":[{"id":13485,"text":"U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Duluth, MN","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":713483,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Corsi, Steven R. 0000-0003-0583-5536 srcorsi@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0583-5536","contributorId":172002,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Corsi","given":"Steven R.","email":"srcorsi@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":37947,"text":"Upper Midwest Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":713481,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"DeCicco, Laura A. 0000-0002-3915-9487 ldecicco@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3915-9487","contributorId":174716,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"DeCicco","given":"Laura","email":"ldecicco@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":677,"text":"Wisconsin Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":5054,"text":"Office of Water Information","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":37947,"text":"Upper Midwest Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":160,"text":"Center for Integrated Data Analytics","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":713484,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Houck, Kieth A.","contributorId":197428,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Houck","given":"Kieth A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":713485,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Judson, Richard S.","contributorId":197429,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Judson","given":"Richard","email":"","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":713486,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Li, Shibin","contributorId":197430,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Li","given":"Shibin","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":713487,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Martin, Matthew T.","contributorId":197431,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Martin","given":"Matthew","email":"","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":713488,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8},{"text":"Murphy, Elizabeth","contributorId":197432,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Murphy","given":"Elizabeth","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":713489,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":9},{"text":"Schroeder, Anthony L.","contributorId":173596,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Schroeder","given":"Anthony","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":6914,"text":"U.S. Environmental Protection Agency","active":true,"usgs":false},{"id":12503,"text":"University of Minnesota -

To better understand the influence of water content on carbon (C) exchange, we assessed the ability of dual-probe heat-pulse (DPHP) sensors, installed vertically and angled, to measure changes in near-surface water content. Four DPHP sensors were installed in each of two research plots (eight sensors total) that differed by temperature treatment (control and heated). Responses were compared to horizontally installed water content measurements made with three frequency-domain reflectometry (FDR) sensors in each plot at 5-cm depth. The study was conducted near Moab, Utah, from April through September 2009. Results showed significant differences between sensor technologies: peak water content differences from the DPHP sensors were approximately three times higher than those from the FDR sensors; some of the differences can be explained by the targeted monitoring of biocrust material in the shorter DPHP sensor and by potential signal loss from horizontally installed FDR sensors, or by an oversampling of deeper soil.

We evaluated the use of eDNA for standard fish monitoring surveys in a large reservoir. Specifically, we compared the presence, relative abundance, biomass, and relative percent composition of Largemouth Bass&nbsp;</span><i>Micropterus salmoides</i><span><span>&nbsp;</span>and Gizzard Shad<span>&nbsp;</span></span><i>Dorosoma cepedianum</i><span><span>&nbsp;</span>measured through eDNA methods and established American Fisheries Society standard sampling methods for Theodore Roosevelt Lake, Arizona. Catches at electrofishing and gillnetting sites were compared with eDNA water samples at sites, within spatial strata, and over the entire reservoir. Gizzard Shad were detected at a higher percentage of sites with eDNA methods than with boat electrofishing in both spring and fall. In contrast, spring and fall gillnetting detected Gizzard Shad at more sites than eDNA. Boat electrofishing and gillnetting detected Largemouth Bass at more sites than eDNA; the exception was fall gillnetting, for which the number of sites of Largemouth Bass detection was equal to that for eDNA. We observed no relationship between relative abundance and biomass of Largemouth Bass and Gizzard Shad measured by established methods and eDNA copies at individual sites or lake sections. Reservoirwide catch composition for Largemouth Bass and Gizzard Shad (numbers and total weight [g] of fish) as determined through a combination of gear types (boat electrofishing plus gillnetting) was similar to the proportion of total eDNA copies from each species in spring and fall field sampling. However, no similarity existed between proportions of fish caught via spring and fall boat electrofishing and the proportion of total eDNA copies from each species. Our study suggests that eDNA field sampling protocols, filtration, DNA extraction, primer design, and DNA sequencing methods need further refinement and testing before incorporation into standard fish sampling surveys.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Taylor & Francis","doi":"10.1080/02755947.2017.1342721","usgsCitation":"Perez, C.R., Bonar, S.A., Amberg, J., Ladell, B., Rees, C.B., Stewart, W.T., Gill, C.J., Cantrell, C., and Robinson, A., 2017, Comparison of American Fisheries Society (AFS) standard fish sampling techniques and environmental DNA for characterizing fish communities in a large reservoir: North American Journal of Fisheries Management, v. 37, no. 5, p. 1010-1027, https://doi.org/10.1080/02755947.2017.1342721.","productDescription":"18 p.","startPage":"1010","endPage":"1027","ipdsId":"IP-084602","costCenters":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":347012,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Arizona","otherGeospatial":"Theodore Roosevelt Lake","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -111.25785827636717,\n              33.63348744004515\n            ],\n            [\n              -110.95745086669922,\n              33.63348744004515\n            ],\n            [\n              -110.95745086669922,\n              33.77343983379775\n            ],\n            [\n              -111.25785827636717,\n              33.77343983379775\n            ],\n            [\n              -111.25785827636717,\n              33.63348744004515\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"37","issue":"5","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":12,"text":"Tacoma PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-07-05","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"59e9b994e4b05fe04cd65c83","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Perez, Christina R.","contributorId":197750,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Perez","given":"Christina","email":"","middleInitial":"R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":714211,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Bonar, Scott A. 0000-0003-3532-4067 sbonar@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3532-4067","contributorId":3712,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Bonar","given":"Scott","email":"sbonar@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":714029,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Amberg, Jon J. jamberg@usgs.gov","contributorId":797,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Amberg","given":"Jon J.","email":"jamberg@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":714212,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Ladell, Bridget","contributorId":197751,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Ladell","given":"Bridget","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":714213,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Rees, Christopher B. crees@usgs.gov","contributorId":5500,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rees","given":"Christopher","email":"crees@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[{"id":606,"text":"Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":714214,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Stewart, William T.","contributorId":197752,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Stewart","given":"William","email":"","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":714215,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Gill, Curtis J.","contributorId":197753,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Gill","given":"Curtis","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":714216,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Cantrell, Chris","contributorId":196762,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Cantrell","given":"Chris","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":714217,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8},{"text":"Robinson, Anthony","contributorId":57480,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Robinson","given":"Anthony","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":714218,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":9}]}}

This has motivated a need to anticipate future patterns of range expansion. We conducted a non-invasive, genetic, spatial capture-recapture (SCR) study to estimate black bear density and identify spatial patterns of population density that are potentially associated with range expansion. We collected hair samples in a 2,519-km</span><sup>2</sup><span><span>&nbsp;</span>study area in southern New York with barbed-wire hair snares and identified individuals and measured genetic diversity using 7 microsatellite loci and 1 sex-linked marker. We estimated a mean density of black bears in the region of 13.7 bears/100 km</span><sup>2</sup><span>, and detected a slight latitudinal gradient in density consistent with the documented range expansion. However, elevation and the amounts of forest, crop, and developed landcover types did not influence density, suggesting that bears are using a diversity of resources in this heterogeneous landscape outside their previously described distribution. These results provide the first robust baseline estimates for population density and distribution associated with different landcover types in the expanded bear range. Further, genetic diversity was comparable to that of non-expanding black bear populations in the eastern United States, and in combination with the latitudinal density gradient, suggest that the study area is not at the colonizing front of the range expansion. In addition, the diversity of landcover types used by bears in the study area implies a possible lack of constraints for further northern expansion of the black bear range. Our non-invasive, genetic, spatial capture-recapture approach has utility for studying populations of other species that may be expanding in range because SCR allows for the testing of explicit, spatial ecological hypotheses.<span>&nbsp;</span></span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/jwmg.21248","usgsCitation":"Sun, C.C., Fuller, A.K., Hare, M.P., and Hurst, J.E., 2017, Evaluating population expansion of black bears using spatial capture-recapture: Journal of Wildlife Management, v. 81, no. 5, p. 814-823, https://doi.org/10.1002/jwmg.21248.","productDescription":"10 p.","startPage":"814","endPage":"823","ipdsId":"IP-060611","costCenters":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":348586,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"New York","volume":"81","issue":"5","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-03-29","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5a06c8cce4b09af898c8611a","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Sun, Catherine C.","contributorId":70274,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Sun","given":"Catherine","email":"","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":12722,"text":"Cornell University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":719081,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Fuller, Angela K. 0000-0002-9247-7468 afuller@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9247-7468","contributorId":3984,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Fuller","given":"Angela","email":"afuller@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":719080,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Hare, Matthew P.","contributorId":171454,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hare","given":"Matthew","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":12722,"text":"Cornell University","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":719082,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Hurst, Jeremy E.","contributorId":177504,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hurst","given":"Jeremy","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":13678,"text":"New York State Department of Environmental Conservation","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":719083,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

However, the Utah chub has been introduced into many other waterbodies in the western United States, where it competes with ecologically and economically important species. The objectives of this study were to evaluate between-reader precision and reader confidence in age estimates obtained from pectoral fin rays, lapilli (otoliths), asterisci (otoliths), and scales for Utah chubs collected from Henrys Lake, Idaho. Lapilli have been previously shown to provide accurate age estimates for Utah chubs; therefore, we sought to compare age estimates from fin rays, asterisci, and scales to those from lapilli. The between-reader coefficient of variation (CV) in age estimates was lowest and the percent of exact reader agreement (PA-0) was highest for pectoral fin rays (CV = 4.7, PA-0 = 74%), followed by scales (CV = 10.3, PA-0 = 52.3%), lapilli (CV = 11.6, PA-0 = 48.2%), and asterisci (CV = 13.0, PA-0 = 41.7%).

The process of recruitment in particular may be protracted over several years, and can depend on numerous ecological complexities until sexually mature adulthood is attained. We addressed long-term declines (23 breeding seasons, 1992–2014) in the per capita production of young by both Ross's Geese (</span><i>Chen rossii</i><span>) and Lesser Snow Geese (</span><i>Chen caerulescens caerulescens</i><span>) nesting at Karrak Lake in Canada's central Arctic. During this period, there was a contemporaneous increase from 0.4 to 1.1 million adults nesting at this colony. We evaluated whether (1) density-dependent nutritional deficiencies of pre-breeding females or (2) phenological mismatch between peak gosling hatch and peak forage quality, inferred from NDVI on the brood-rearing areas, may have been behind decadal declines in the per capita production of goslings. We found that, in years when pre-breeding females arrived to the nesting grounds with diminished nutrient reserves, the proportional composition of young during brood-rearing was reduced for both species. Furthermore, increased mismatch between peak gosling hatch and peak forage quality contributed additively to further declines in gosling production, in addition to declines caused by delayed nesting with associated subsequent negative effects on clutch size and nest success. The degree of mismatch increased over the course of our study because of advanced vegetation phenology without a corresponding advance in Goose nesting phenology. Vegetation phenology was significantly earlier in years with warm surface air temperatures measured in spring (i.e., 25 May–30 June). We suggest that both increased phenological mismatch and reduced nutritional condition of arriving females were behind declines in population-level recruitment, leading to the recent attenuation in population growth of Snow Geese.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Ecological Society of America","doi":"10.1002/ecy.1856","usgsCitation":"Ross, M.V., Alisaukas, R.T., Douglas, D.C., and Kellett, D.K., 2017, Decadal declines in avian herbivore reproduction: density-dependent nutrition and phenological mismatch in the Arctic: Ecology, v. 98, no. 7, p. 1869-1883, https://doi.org/10.1002/ecy.1856.","productDescription":"15 p.","startPage":"1869","endPage":"1883","ipdsId":"IP-081248","costCenters":[{"id":116,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology MFEB","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":348055,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"98","issue":"7","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":12,"text":"Tacoma PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-06-30","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"59fadd22e4b0531197b13c8a","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Ross, Megan V.","contributorId":199265,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Ross","given":"Megan","email":"","middleInitial":"V.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":718527,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Alisaukas, Ray T.","contributorId":199266,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Alisaukas","given":"Ray","email":"","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":718528,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Douglas, David C. 0000-0003-0186-1104 ddouglas@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0186-1104","contributorId":2388,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Douglas","given":"David","email":"ddouglas@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":116,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology MFEB","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":718526,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Kellett, Dana K.","contributorId":199267,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kellett","given":"Dana","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":718529,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

We compared the diets of two abundant species of fishes to test the hypothesis that created shallow chutes provided better foraging habitat for early life stages than nearby unrestored shallow habitats. Graphical analysis of feeding patterns of freshwater drum indicated specialization on chironomid larvae, which were consumed in greater numbers in unrestored mainstem reaches compared to chutes. Hiodon spp. were more generalist feeders with no differences in prey use between habitat types. Significantly greater numbers of individuals with empty stomachs were observed in chute shallow-water habitats, indicating poor foraging habitat.

These particles are immobilized within stream storage areas, especially hyporheic sediments and benthic biofilms. However, fine particles are also known to remobilize under all flow conditions. This combination of downstream transport and transient retention, influenced by stream geomorphology, controls the distribution of residence times over which fine particles influence stream ecosystems. The main objective of this study was to quantify immobilization and remobilization rates of fine particles in a third-order sand-and-gravel bed stream (Difficult Run, Virginia, USA) within different geomorphic units of the stream (i.e., pool, lateral cavity, and thalweg). During our field injection experiment, a thunderstorm-driven spate allowed us to observe fine particle dynamics during both base flow and in response to increased flow. Solute and fine particles were measured within stream surface waters, pore waters, sediment cores, and biofilms on cobbles. Measurements were taken at four different subsurface locations with varying geomorphology and at multiple depths. Approximately 68% of injected fine particles were retained during base flow until the onset of the spate. Retention was evident even after the spate, with 15.4% of the fine particles deposited during base flow still retained within benthic biofilms on cobbles and 14.9% within hyporheic sediment after the spate. Thus, through the combination of short-term remobilization and long-term retention, fine particles can serve as sources of carbon and nutrients to downstream ecosystems over a range of time scales.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"AGU Publications","doi":"10.1002/2016WR020202","usgsCitation":"Drummond, J.D., Larsen, L.G., González-Pinzón, R., Packman, A.I., and Harvey, J., 2017, Fine particle retention within stream storage areas at base flow and in response to a storm event: Water Resources Research, v. 53, no. 7, p. 5690-5705, https://doi.org/10.1002/2016WR020202.","productDescription":"16 p.","startPage":"5690","endPage":"5705","ipdsId":"IP-085237","costCenters":[{"id":436,"text":"National Research Program - Eastern Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":469725,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1002/2016wr020202","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":348266,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Virginia","otherGeospatial":"Difficult Run","volume":"53","issue":"7","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-07-16","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5a07e8b9e4b09af898c8cba9","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Drummond, J.

Since introduction, it has become an economically and ecologically important species that supports popular recreational fisheries. It is also one of the most abundant top predators in the system. Currently, there is no information on the level of genetic diversity or genetic structuring that may have occurred since introduction. An understanding of genetic diversity is important for the delineation of management units and investigation of gene flow at various management scales. The goals of this research were to investigate population genetic structure of Smallmouth Bass at sites within the Susquehanna River basin and to assess genetic differentiation relative to Smallmouth Bass at an out-of-basin site (Allegheny River, Pennsylvania) located within the species’ native range. During spring 2015, fin clips (<i>n</i> = 1,034) were collected from adults at 11 river sites and 13 tributary sites in the Susquehanna River basin and at one site on the Allegheny River. Fin clips were genotyped at 12 polymorphic microsatellite loci. Based on our results, adults sampled throughout the Susquehanna River basin did not represent separate genetic populations. There were only subtle differences in genetic diversity among sites (mean pairwise genetic differentiation index <i>F<sub>ST</sub></i> = 0.012), and there was an overall lack of population differentiation (<i>K</i> = 3 admixed populations). The greatest genetic differentiation was observed between fish collected from the out-of-basin site and those from the Susquehanna River basin sites. Knowledge that separate genetic populations of Smallmouth Bass do not exist in the Susquehanna River basin is valuable information for fisheries management in addition to providing baseline genetic data on an introduced sport fish population.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Taylor & Francis","doi":"10.1080/02755947.2017.1327902","usgsCitation":"Schall, M.K., Bartron, M.L., Wertz, T., Niles, J.M., Shaw, C., and Wagner, T., 2017, Evaluation of genetic population structure of smallmouth bass in the Susquehanna River basin, Pennsylvania: North American Journal of Fisheries Management, v. 37, no. 4, p. 850-861, https://doi.org/10.1080/02755947.2017.1327902.","productDescription":"12 p.","startPage":"850","endPage":"861","ipdsId":"IP-079164","costCenters":[{"id":199,"text":"Coop Res Unit Leetown","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":348212,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Pennsylvania","otherGeospatial":"Susquehanna River basin","volume":"37","issue":"4","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-05-16","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5a00314fe4b0531197b5a742","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Schall, Megan K.","contributorId":115964,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Schall","given":"Megan","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[{"id":17758,"text":"Pennsylvania State Univ.","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":720419,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Bartron, Meredith L.","contributorId":149109,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Bartron","given":"Meredith","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":6678,"text":"U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge","active":true,"usgs":false},{"id":26874,"text":"USFWS, Lamar, PA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":720420,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Wertz, Timothy","contributorId":66866,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Wertz","given":"Timothy","affiliations":[{"id":17703,"text":"Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":720421,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Niles, Jonathan M.","contributorId":146975,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Niles","given":"Jonathan","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":35657,"text":"Susquehanna University, Selinsgrove, PA","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":720422,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Shaw, Cassidy H. 0000-0003-2639-1241","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2639-1241","contributorId":197773,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Shaw","given":"Cassidy H.","affiliations":[{"id":365,"text":"Leetown Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":720423,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Wagner, Tyler 0000-0003-1726-016X twagner@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1726-016X","contributorId":1050,"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":720424,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

The advantages of FCM in subsurface transport studies are that they are safe in tracer applications, negatively charged, easy to detect, chemically inert, and available in wide range of sizes. The limitations of FCM are that the quantities needed for some field transport studies can be prohibitively expensive and that their surface characteristics may not match the microorganisms of interest. These limitations may be ameliorated, in part by using chemically modified FCM so that their surface characteristics are a better match to that of the organisms. Also, more sensitive methods of detection may allow using smaller quantities of FCM. To assess how the transport behaviors of FCM and pathogens might compare at the field scale, it is helpful to conduct side-by-side comparisons of their transport behaviors using the geologic media and site-specific conditions that characterize the field site.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/j.proeps.2016.12.094","usgsCitation":"Harvey, R.W., Metge, D.W., and LeBlanc, D.R., 2017, Microbial-sized, carboxylate-modified microspheres as surrogate tracers in a variety of subsurface environments: An overview: Procedia Earth and Planetary Science, v. 17, p. 372-375, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.proeps.2016.12.094.","productDescription":"4 p.","startPage":"372","endPage":"375","ipdsId":"IP-074893","costCenters":[{"id":5044,"text":"National Research Program - Central Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":469722,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.proeps.2016.12.094","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":343454,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"17","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":2,"text":"Denver PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"595f4c3ae4b0d1f9f057e326","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Harvey, Ronald W. 0000-0002-2791-8503 rwharvey@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2791-8503","contributorId":564,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Harvey","given":"Ronald","email":"rwharvey@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":5044,"text":"National Research Program - Central Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":703422,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Metge, David W. dwmetge@usgs.gov","contributorId":663,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Metge","given":"David","email":"dwmetge@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"W.","affiliations":[{"id":5044,"text":"National Research Program - Central Branch","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":703423,"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":703424,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

We investigated temporal changes in forage fish availability and relationships to ocean climate by analyzing diet composition of three puffin species (horned puffin&nbsp;</span><i>Fratercula corniculata</i><span>, tufted puffin<span>&nbsp;</span></span><i>Fratercula cirrhata</i><span>, and rhinoceros auklet<span>&nbsp;</span></span><i>Cerorhinca monocerata</i><span>) from five sites in the North Pacific from 1978–2012. Dominant forage species included squids and hexagrammids in the western Aleutians, gadids and Pacific sand lance (</span><i>Ammodytes personatus</i><span>) in the eastern Aleutians and western Gulf of Alaska (GoA), and sand lance and capelin (</span><i>Mallotus villosus</i><span>) in the northern and eastern GoA. Interannual fluctuations in forage availability dominated variability in the western Aleutians, whereas lower-frequency shifts in forage fish availability dominated elsewhere. We produced regional multivariate indicators of sand lance, capelin, and age-0 gadid availability by combining data across species and sites using Principal Component Analysis, and related these indices to environmental factors including sea level pressure (SPL), winds, and sea surface temperature (SST). There was coherence in the availability of sand lance and capelin across the study area. Sand lance availability increased linearly with environmental conditions leading to warmer ocean temperatures, whereas capelin availability increased in a non-linear manner when environmental changes led to lower ocean temperatures. Long-term studies of puffin diet composition appear to be a promising tool for understanding the availability of these difficult-to-survey forage nekton in remote regions of the North Pacific.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1111/fog.12204","usgsCitation":"Sydeman, W., Piatt, J.F., Thompson, S.A., Garcia-Reyes, M., Hatch, S., Arimitsu, M.L., Slater, L., Williams, J.C., Rojek, N.A., Zador, S.G., and Renner, H.M., 2017, Puffins reveal contrasting relationships between forage fish and ocean climate in the North Pacific: Fisheries Oceanography, v. 26, no. 4, p. 379-395, https://doi.org/10.1111/fog.12204.","productDescription":"17 p.","startPage":"379","endPage":"395","ipdsId":"IP-063216","costCenters":[{"id":116,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology MFEB","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":469714,"rank":0,"type":{"id":41,"text":"Open Access External Repository Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1111/fog.12204","text":"External Repository"},{"id":349629,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"26","issue":"4","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":12,"text":"Tacoma PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2017-01-13","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5a60fb8de4b06e28e9c23274","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Sydeman, William J.","contributorId":172574,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Sydeman","given":"William J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":724160,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Piatt, John F. 0000-0002-4417-5748 jpiatt@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4417-5748","contributorId":3025,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Piatt","given":"John","email":"jpiatt@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"F.","affiliations":[{"id":117,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology WTEB","active":true,"usgs":true},{"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":724159,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Thompson, Sarah Ann","contributorId":198394,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Thompson","given":"Sarah","email":"","middleInitial":"Ann","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":724161,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Garcia-Reyes, Marisol","contributorId":201043,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Garcia-Reyes","given":"Marisol","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":724162,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Hatch, Scott A.","contributorId":201044,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hatch","given":"Scott A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":724163,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Arimitsu, Mayumi L. 0000-0001-6982-2238 marimitsu@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6982-2238","contributorId":140501,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Arimitsu","given":"Mayumi","email":"marimitsu@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":116,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology MFEB","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":724164,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Slater, Leslie","contributorId":201045,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Slater","given":"Leslie","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":724165,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Williams, Jeffrey C.","contributorId":126882,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Williams","given":"Jeffrey","email":"","middleInitial":"C.","affiliations":[{"id":6678,"text":"U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":724166,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8},{"text":"Rojek, Nora A.","contributorId":201046,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Rojek","given":"Nora","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":724167,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":9},{"text":"Zador, Stephani G.","contributorId":201047,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Zador","given":"Stephani","email":"","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":724168,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":10},{"text":"Renner, Heather M.","contributorId":201048,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Renner","given":"Heather","email":"","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":724169,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":11}]}}

However, fish are also the primary source of methylmercury exposure in humans. Selenium often co-occurs with mercury and there is some evidence that selenium can protect against mercury toxicity yet States issue fish consumption advisories based solely on the risks that methylmercury pose to human health. Recently, it has been suggested the selenium: mercury molar ratio be considered in risk management. In order for agencies to utilize the ratio to set consumption guidelines, it is important to evaluate the variability in selenium and mercury in different fish species. We examined 10 different freshwater fish species found within the Columbia River Basin in order to determine the inter- and intra-specific variability in the selenium: mercury molar ratios and the selenium health benefit values. We found significant variation in selenium: mercury molar ratios. The mean molar ratios for each species were all above 1:1, ranging from 3.42:1 in Walleye to 27.2:1 in Chinook salmon. There was a positive correlation between both mercury and selenium with length for each fish species apart from yellow perch and rainbow trout. All species had health benefit values greater than 2. We observed considerable variability in selenium: mercury molar ratios within fish species collected in the Columbia River Basin. Although incorporating selenium: mercury molar ratios into fish consumption holds the potential for refining advisories and assessing the risk of methylmercury exposure, the current understanding of how these ratios apply is insufficient, and further understanding of drivers of variability in the ratios is needed.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s12011-016-0907-9","usgsCitation":"Cusack, L.K., Eagles-Smith, C.A., Harding, A.K., Kile, M., and Stone, D., 2017, Selenium: Mercury molar ratios in freshwater fish in the Columbia River Basin: Potential applications for specific fish consumption advisories: Biological Trace Element Research, v. 178, no. 1, p. 136-146, https://doi.org/10.1007/s12011-016-0907-9.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"136","endPage":"146","ipdsId":"IP-081806","costCenters":[{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true},{"id":34983,"text":"Contaminant Biology Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":345642,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"178","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2016-12-08","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"59b8f21ee4b08b1644e0aee0","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Cusack, Leanne K.","contributorId":196356,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Cusack","given":"Leanne","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":710141,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Eagles-Smith, Collin A. 0000-0003-1329-5285 ceagles-smith@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1329-5285","contributorId":505,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Eagles-Smith","given":"Collin","email":"ceagles-smith@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":290,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true},{"id":518,"text":"Oregon Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":289,"text":"Forest and Rangeland Ecosys Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":710142,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Harding, Anna K.","contributorId":170035,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Harding","given":"Anna","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":710143,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Kile, Molly","contributorId":196357,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Kile","given":"Molly","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":710144,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Stone, Dave","contributorId":196358,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Stone","given":"Dave","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":710145,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5}]}}
