Successional Dynamics Of A 35 Year Old Freshwater Mitigation Wetland In Southeastern New Hampshire, J. Grant Mckown, Gregg E. Moore, Andrew R. Payne, Natalie A. White, Jennifer L. Gibson

Jackson Estuarine Laboratory

The long-term ecological success of compensatory freshwater wetland projects has come into question based on follow-up monitoring studies over the past few decades. Given that wetland restoration may require many years to decades to converge to desired outcomes, long-term monitoring of successional patterns may increase our ability to fully evaluate success of wetland mitigation projects or guide adaptive management when needed. In Portsmouth, New Hampshire a 4 ha wetland was constructed in an abandoned gravel quarry as off-site compensatory mitigation for impacts to a scrub-shrub swamp associated with property expansion. Building upon prior evaluations from 1992 and 2002, we conducted …

Envisioning A Global Multi-Purpose Ocean Acoustic Network, Jennifer L. Miksis-Olds, Eric Rehm, Bruce M. Howe, Peter F. Worcester, Georgios Haralabus, Hanne Sagen

Center for Coastal and Ocean Mapping

Due to the efficient propagation of sound in water, sound in the deep ocean propagates such great distances that soundscapes are influenced not only by local conditions but also by distant sound sources. Ocean Sound is now an Essential Ocean Variable within the Global Ocean Observing System making passive acoustic monitoring routine. Active acoustic probing of the environment informs us about ocean topography, currents and temperature, and abundance and type of marine life vital to fisheries and biodiversity related interests.

Efficient sound propagation is the foundation of a proposed multipurpose acoustic network. Judiciously placed low-frequency acoustic sources transmitting to globally …

The inorganic fraction of fine particles affects numerous physicochemical processes in the atmosphere. However, there is large uncertainty in its burden and composition due to limited global measurements. Here, we present observations from eleven different aircraft campaigns from around the globe and investigate how aerosol pH and ammonium balance change from polluted to remote regions, such as over the oceans. Both parameters show increasing acidity with remoteness, at all altitudes, with pH decreasing from about 3 to about −1 and ammonium balance decreasing from almost 1 to nearly 0. We compare these observations against nine widely used chemical transport models …

Hcooh In The Remote Atmosphere: Constraints From Atmospheric Tomography (Atom) Airborne Observations, Xin Chen, Dylan B. Millet, J. Andrew Neuman, Patrick R. Veres, Eric A.

Formic acid (HCOOH) is an important component of atmospheric acidity but its budget is poorly understood, with prior observations implying substantial missing sources. Here, we combine pole-to-pole airborne observations from the Atmospheric Tomography Mission (ATom) with a chemical transport model (GEOS-Chem CTM) and back-trajectory analyses to provide the first global in situ characterization of HCOOH in the remote atmosphere. ATom reveals sub-100 ppt HCOOH concentrations over most of the remote oceans, punctuated by large enhancements associated with continental outflow. Enhancements correlate with known combustion tracers and trajectory-based fire influences. The GEOS-Chem model underpredicts these in-plume HCOOH enhancements, but elsewhere, we …

The Korea–United States Air Quality (KORUS-AQ) field study was conducted during May–June 2016. The effort was jointly sponsored by the National Institute of Environmental Research of South Korea and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration of the United States. KORUS-AQ offered an unprecedented, multi-perspective view of air quality conditions in South Korea by employing observations from three aircraft, an extensive ground-based network, and three ships along with an array of air quality forecast models. Information gathered during the study is contributing to an improved understanding of the factors controlling air quality in South Korea. The study also provided a valuable …

Cycling Phosphorus And Nitrogen Through Cropping Systems In An Intensive Dairy Production Region, April B. Leytem, Paula Williams, Shan Zuidema, Audrey Martinez, Yen Leng Chong, Alyssa Vincent, Aaron Vincent, Daniel Cronan, Andrew Kliskey, J. D. Wulfhorst, Lilian Alessa, David Bjorneberg

As pressure on the dairy industry to reduce its environmental impact increases, efficient recycling of manure nutrients through local cropping systems becomes crucial. The aim of this study was to calculate annual nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) budgets in six counties located in the Magic Valley, Idaho and estimate what distance manure would need to be transported to be in balance with crop nutrient demand given current dairy cattle populations and cropping systems. Our analysis suggests that crop N needs will not be met solely by manure, and synthetic fertilizer will need to be applied. However, to balance P with …

Covid-19: A Syndemic Requiring An Integrated Approach For Marginalized Populations, Rosemary M. Caron, Amanda Rodrigues Amorim Adegboye

Faculty Publications

The novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, has challenged healthcare systems globally. The health inequities experienced by immigrants, refugees, and racial/ethnic minorities have been aggravated during the COVID-19 pandemic. The socioeconomic, political, and demographic profile of these vulnerable populations places them at increased risk of contracting COVID-19 and experiencing significant morbidity and mortality. Thus, the burden of the COVID-19 pandemic is disproportionally higher among these at-risk groups. The purpose of this perspective is to: (1) highlight the interactions among the social determinants of health (SDoH) and their bi-directional relationship with the COVID-19 pandemic which results in the current …

Fungal Community Response To Long-Term Soil Warming With Potential Implications For Soil Carbon Dynamics, Gregory J. Pec, Linda T. A. Van Diepen, Melissa A. Knorr, A. Stuart Grandy, Jerry M. Melillo, Kristen M. Deangelis, Jeffrey L. Blanchard, Serita D. Frey

Faculty Publications

The direction and magnitude of climate warming effects on ecosystem processes such as carbon cycling remain uncertain. Soil fungi are central to these processes due to their roles as decomposers of soil organic matter, as mycorrhizal symbionts, and as determinants of plant diversity. Yet despite their importance to ecosystem functioning, we lack a clear understanding of the long-term response of soil fungal communities to warming. Toward this goal, we characterized soil fungal communities in two replicated soil warming experiments at the Harvard Forest (Petersham, Massachusetts, USA) which had experienced 5°C above ambient soil temperatures for 5 and 20 yr at …

Management Intensive Grazing On New England Dairy Farms Enhances Soil Nitrogen Stocks And Elevates Soil Nitrous Oxide Emissions Without Increasing Soil Carbon, Alexandra R. Contosta, Kyle A. Arndt, Eleanor E. Campbell, A. Stuart Grandy, Apryl L. Perry, Ruth K. Varner

Faculty Publications

Management intensive grazing (MIG), also known as rotational grazing or multi-paddock grazing, is purported to sequester carbon (C) in soils compared to other agricultural management systems. Prior research examining the potential for MIG to enhance soil C has been inconclusive, and past investigations have not addressed whether higher nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions may accompany increases in soil C stocks. Here we examined linkages among MIG, soil C accumulation, and N2O emissions in cool-season, organic pastures of the northeastern United States. We found that pastures under MIG increased soil C concentrations by 11% from 0–15 cm depth but that soil C …
