American Avocet 39’s (AMAV39) year long journey detailed by U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) GPS tracking data. AMAV39’s flight path, represented by a purple line, starts in the Great Basin at Summer Lake in July 2023 then heads to Lake Abert in October 2023.

A sequence of satellite imagery of Summer Lake in southern Oregon from May 2024 – July 2024. Starting in May the lake is full and a deep-blue color. As the sequence of satellite images progresses through the summer the lake shrinks dramatically as water evaporates. By July the lake has dried out completely and only some marshlands remain.

U.S. Geological Survey Wildlife biologists pin down a spring-loaded net into the soil over an American Avocet’s nest in Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. Biologists capture the bird to take physical measurements and to attach a GPS tracking device.

In this webinar, speakers Elijah Johnson, Abigail Lynch, Olivia LeDee, and Cielo Sharkus discuss various ways and benefits to broadening participation in environmental science through fellowship programs.

This animation of the biogeochemical nitrogen cycle illustrates the main steps of the cycle in air, water, and soils. The video explains and connects the many forms of nitrogen, such as ammonia, ammonium, hydroxylamine, nitrite, nitrate, nitrous oxide, and nitrogen dioxide, and explains the role of nitrate in nitric oxide signaling in the human body.

Juvenile Coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) exhibiting abnormal behaviors associated with exposure to 6PPD-quinone, a derivative of the compound 6PPD which is used in tires to prevent wear.

This video is step 1 in a series of videos that show you how to enter data into the Conservation Efforts Database using the single record data entry method. Step 1 is the creation of a new conservation effort.

This video is step 2 in a series of videos that show you how to enter data into the Conservation Efforts Database using the single record data entry method. Step 2 is data entry of location information. This video is for data entry of location information for conservation efforts on public lands.

This video is step 2 in a series of five videos that show you how to enter data into the Conservation Efforts Database using the single record data entry method. Step 2 is data entry of location information. This video is for data entry of location information for conservation efforts on private lands. 

This video is step 3 in a series of videos that show you how to enter data into the Conservation Efforts Database using the single record data entry method. Step 2 is data entry activity information. This video is for data entry of activity information related to Lahontan Cutthroat Trout conservation efforts.
