Paleomagnetic correlation of surface and subsurface basalt flows in the central and southwestern part of the Idaho National Laboratory, Idaho
Mary Hodges, Allison R. Trcka, Duane E. Champion
2025, Scientific Investigations Report 2025-5020
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Energy, used paleomagnetic data from 22 coreholes to construct 3 fence diagrams of subsurface basalt flows in the southern part of the Idaho National Laboratory. These diagrams provide comprehensive descriptions of the horizontal and vertical distribution of basalt flows...

6PPD-quinone (6PPDQ), derived from the tire-protectant 6PPD reacting with ozone, is an emerging contaminant of concern owing to its role in coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) deaths via urban runoff mortality syndrome (URMS). Given the impact of 6PPDQ on aquatic life in urban streams, we addressed the acute toxicity of 6PPDQ...

In addition to having cultural, social, and economic significance, large predatory fish affect aquatic communities from the top down and serve as markers of ecosystem health. A focus on large predators is critical for managing ecosystems, conserving species, and guaranteeing the sustainability<a class="topic-link" title="Learn more about sustainability from ScienceDirect's AI-generated...
Do Graviquakes exist?
L. Malagnini, Dreger D.., Thomas E. Parsons, G. Valensise, A. Michelini, G. De Natale
2025, Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America (115) 2073-2095
The “Graviquake” model, proposed in 2015 as an alternative to the elastic dislocation model, posits that normal faults are passive features dominated by coseismic gravitational collapse into a dilated crustal wedge, and that normal faulting is fundamentally distinct from strike‐slip and reverse faulting. Developed using finite‐element modeling before the 2016...

2025, Endangered Species Research (57) 91-102
The recent steep decline of the endangered North Atlantic right whale Eubalaena glacialis can be attributed to high mortality combined with low reproduction. While the former is a clear result of anthropogenic activity, the latter involves more complexity. Evidence suggests that both short-term fluctuations in prey availability and long-term decline in health...

The recent Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) sets ambitious goals but no clear pathway for how zero loss of important biodiversity areas and halting human-induced extinction of threatened species will be achieved. We assembled a multi-taxa tracking dataset (11 million geopositions from 15,845 tracked individuals across 121 species) to provide...

Kristin B. Byrd, Sherry L. Palacios, Nicole Chin Taylor, Isa Woo, Stacy M Moskal, Raymond F. Kokaly, Todd M. Hoefen, John Chapman, Susan E.W. De La Cruz
2025, JGR Biogeosciences (130)
Intertidal microbial biofilms, or microphytobenthos, support estuarine biogeochemical cycling, the physical stability of mudflats, and food webs, particularly those of migratory shorebirds. Photosynthetic biofilms dominated by diatoms, cyanobacteria, and chlorophytes represent a significant fraction of biofilm biomass and contain pigments that can be detected with remote sensing. These diverse biofilm...

Robert T. Paine, Hannah Swain-Menzel, Amanda E. Rosenberger, Auburn Velasquez
2025, Cooperator Science Series CSS-169-2025
Using environmental DNA (eDNA) surveillance methods, we report the first evidence of the persistence of the Chucky Madtom (Noturus crypticus) in Little Chucky Creek, Tennessee, which has been absent from conventional surveys since 2004, and in Dunn Creek, Tennessee, where it was last collected in 1940. This highlights the utility...

As nations transition toward sustainable energy systems, biomass has become a vital component of global energy portfolios. Derived from organic materials such as wood, agricultural residues, forestry byproducts, and organic waste, biomass is a renewable energy source with significant environmental and economic benefits. Responsible biomass energy production can improve waste management, reduce emissions of greenhouse gases,...

2025, African Journal of Ecology (63)
Changes in vegetation cover are occurring across sub-Saharan Africa and can have substantial effects on ecological communities, but limited data make understanding status and trends difficult for many taxa. We surveyed birds for several decades across Uganda using point counts. Using time-to-detection analysis in a trait-informed Bayesian multi-species occupancy framework,...

Christine M. Albano, Christopher E. Soulard, Blake A. Minor, Jessica J. Walker, Britt Windsor Smith, Eric K. Waller, Michael D. Bartles, Tom Corringham, Anthony T. O'Geen, Melissa M. Rohde, Anne Wein
2025, Journal of Flood Risk Management (18)
California's Central Valley is increasingly vulnerable to winter floods. A comprehensive spatial baseline of flood extents is critical for inundation analyses that can enhance future flood predictions, but cloud cover has prevented the regular observation of surface water extents with optical satellite imagery. In this study, we leveraged the daily...
Shotgun sequencing of airborne eDNA achieves rapid assessment of whole biomes, population genetics and genomic variation

2025, Nature Ecology & Evolution (9) 1043-1060
Biodiversity and its associated genetic diversity are being lost at an unprecedented rate. Simultaneously, the distributions of flora, fauna, fungi, microbes and pathogens are rapidly changing. Novel technology can help to capture and record genetic diversity before it is lost and to measure population shifts and pathogen distributions. Here we...
New insights reveal a temporally distinct two-stock genetic structure for Suwannee River Gulf sturgeon
Melissa E. Price, Brian Kreiser, Michael T. Randall
2025, Endangered Species Research (57) 289-298
Understanding population genetic structure and patterns of gene flow is important for effective decision making and the preservation of genetic diversity, especially when managing protected species. Historically, Gulf sturgeon have been managed by river system, with early evidence supporting spatially distinct genetic structure across 7 natal populations. However, an increasing...

Matthew Ross Acre, Sophia Marie Bonjour, Jacob N. Griffin, Robert Bratcher, Tyler Hessler, Dustin Broaddus, Andrew T. Mueller, Jacob Faulkner, Josey Lee Ridgway, Michael G. Iacchetta, Suzanne Colyer, Robin D. Calfee
2025, Transactions of the American Fishery Society (154) 424-439
ObjectiveInternal tagging for telemetry studies requires invasive surgery procedures, necessitating sufficient sedation to support animal welfare. Challenges with existing chemical sedatives have resulted in technological alternatives, including electrosedation, with these newer methods less extensively studied. Our primary objective was to understand long-term survival, body-condition effects, and...

Between 2018 and 2023, the U.S. Geological Survey assessed shoreface sediment availability at three Atlantic Coast barrier island study sites in support of a National Fish and Wildlife Foundation project entitled, “Monitoring Hurricane Sandy Beach and Marsh Resilience in New York and New Jersey.” The three study sites are Seven...
Legacies of a large flood and biological control on riparian vegetation successional trajectories along a dryland braided river
Eduardo González-Sargas, Steven R. Lee, Laura G. Perry, Patrick B. Shafroth
2025, River Research and Applications (41) 1169-1185
The interplay of disturbance and stability drives vegetation dynamics. Disturbance reduces vegetation biomass, and stability fosters its development. In riparian systems, natural disturbance is largely manifested through flood-driven fluvial processes, but other forms of disturbance, such as herbivory or fire, may influence vegetation dynamics. We studied the successional trajectories of...
