U.S. Geological Survey Science for the Wyoming Landscape Conservation Initiative: 2012 annual report U.S. Geological Survey Science for the Wyoming Landscape Conservation Initiative: 2012 annual report
Southwest Wyoming contains abundant energy resources, wildlife, habitat, open spaces, and outdoor recreational opportunities. Although energy exploration and development have been taking place in the region since the late 1800s, the pace of development for fossil fuels and renewable energy increased significantly in the early 2000s. This and the associated urban and exurban development...

Provenance and tectonic significance of the Palaeoproterozoic metasedimentary successions of central and nothern Madagascar Provenance and tectonic significance of the Palaeoproterozoic metasedimentary successions of central and nothern Madagascar
New detrital zircon U–Pb age data obtained from various quartzite units of three spatially separated supracrustal packages in central and northern Madagascar, show that these units were deposited between 1.8 and 0.8 Ga and have similar aged provenances. The distribution of detrital zircon ages indicates an overwhelming contribution of sources with ages between 2.5 and 1.8 Ga. Possible...

Simulating the impacts of disturbances on forest carbon cycling in North America: Processes, data, models, and challenges Simulating the impacts of disturbances on forest carbon cycling in North America: Processes, data, models, and challenges
Forest disturbances greatly alter the carbon cycle at various spatial and temporal scales. It is critical to understand disturbance regimes and their impacts to better quantify regional and global carbon dynamics. This review of the status and major challenges in representing the impacts of disturbances in modeling the carbon dynamics across North America revealed some major advances and
