The Center of Excellence for Field Biology, Austin Peay State University, Clarksville, Tennessee. Published August 2013 ii PREFACE At 1:00 p.m. on March 25, 2011, the 14th Symposium on the Natural History of Lower Tennessee and Cumberland River Valleys was convened at the Land Between The Lakes’ Brandon Spring Group Camp by Dr. Steven W. Hamilton, Director of the Center of Excellence for Field Biology (CEFB). Following welcoming remarks by Dr. Hamilton on behalf of the CEFB and Austin Peay State University, Dr. Howard H. Whiteman, Director of the Watershed Studies Institute, welcomed guests on behalf of the Institute and Murray State University. Speaking on behalf of Dr. Bill Lisowski, USDA-Forest Service Area Supervisor for Land Between The Lakes (LBL), Wildlife Program Manager Steve Bloemer, welcomed attendees and provided updates on recent activities at LBL. Following opening remarks from sponsoring organizations, Dr. Rebecca Johansen convened the Invited Papers Session, “Invasive Species of the Mid-South.” Dr. Daniel Simberloff, Professor of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Tennessee – Knoxville, presented a broad perspective on invasive species titled, “Biological Invasions – A Major Global Change and a Technological and Political Challenge.” Dr. Michael Netherland, a Research Biologist for the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center in Gainesville, Florida, followed with a more focused talk, “Biology and Management of Invasive Aquatic Plants in the Southeastern United States.” Continuing on the aquatic invasive theme, Dr. Pam Fuller, Program Leader for the USGS Nonindigenous Aquatic Species Program in Gainesville, Florida, provided an overview of a system to track invasive aquatics with “USGS Nonindigenous Aquatic Species Database with a Focus on the Introduced Fishes of the Lower Tennessee and Cumberland Drainages.” Closing out the Friday afternoon session was Dr. James Rhea, Entomologist with USDA Forest Service, Forest Health Protection in Asheville, North Carolina. Dr. Rhea’s talk covered the threats to our forest communities in “Forests Under Attack by Non-Native Invasive Insects.” Drs. Simberloff, Netherland and Fuller have published their reports in these proceedings. Dr. Rhea’s presentation is summarized in an abstract. Dr. Johansen served as the editor for the Invited Paper Session. On Saturday morning three contributed paper sessions were convened concurrently. Dr. Dwayne Estes moderated “Session I: Botany” and served as the botany editor for two papers and seven abstracts published in these proceeedings. Dr. Steven Hamilton served as moderator and editor for “Session II: Aquatic Biology” from which two short communications and eight abstracts are published here. Dr. Andrew Barrass moderated “Session III: Zoology” and edited one manuscript and nine abstracts from this session. Editing and publishing of these proceedings follow the format of the prior thirteen proceedings published by the Center of Excellence for Field Biology. Contributed papers and abstracts were reviewed by CEFB staff for style, content and scientific merit. On occasion, external reviewers were asked to comment and critique contributed papers. Invited papers were reviewed by the session editor for style and content. Also, each manuscript was reviewed by one outside reviewer who could offer critical evaluation scientific merit. Thanks are extended to the external reviewers for their assistance and to all contributors for their fine work and patience while the proceedings were being completed. We hope the results are satisfactory both for the authors and for other readers. We apologize in advance for any oversights in the editing and publishing process. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Jean Langley, technical clerk for the Center of Excellence for Field Biology, has been a critical component in the organization and execution of the meeting and publication of these proceedings. Without her diligent assistance and organizational skills, these results would be much diminished. We must also acknowledge the many undergraduate and graduate students who helped us prepare, set-up, operate and tear-down the symposium. Lastly, we thank Richard Lomax and his staff at the Brandon Spring Group Camp for the help and hospitality during this biennial event. i SYMPOSIUM REGISTRANTS Following, in alphabetical order, is a list of those individuals who registered at the 2011 symposium.

    Testimony of Erik Silldorff, Ph.D., Aquatic Biologist, Delaware River Basin Commission Areas of Expertise: Aquatic Ecology, Ecological & Water Quality Assessment, Statistics In the Matter of Delaware River Basin Commission Adjudicatory Administrative Hearing on Natural Gas Exploratory Wells November 23, 2010 Overview As a Ph.D. biologist with 18 years of professional experience, it is my view that exploratory well drilling projects within the drainage area of Delaware River Basin Special Protection Waters pose a substantial risk to the water quality and ecological condition of these waterways; this risk is expected to increase commensurately with the number of exploratory well projects. In this testimony, I describe many of the unique and sensitive attributes found within the Special Protection Waters region, including the high water quality which motivated the anti-degradation protections for the Delaware River and a number of its tributaries. I then review the multiple mechanisms by which exploratory well projects elevate the risks from environmental damage to these Special Protection Waters, and how the combined risks could lead to substantial effects on the resources, particularly when expanded in scale above the current level of activity. The juxtaposition of highly sensitive resources in an area that could see unprecedented industrial activity through exploratory well projects highlights the need for appropriate environmental safeguards, including review by the DRBC. Such safeguards provide a means to minimize the risks from exploratory wells, risks that could undermine the considerable efforts across the preceding decades to prevent degradation of these resources. A. Physical Geography and Regulatory Context The Delaware Basin covers an area of approximately 13,600 mi2 across five states (NY, PA, NJ, DE, and MD).

    Aquatic Vascular Plant Species Distribution Maps

    Appendix 11.5.1: Aquatic Vascular Plant Species Distribution Maps These distribution maps are for 116 aquatic vascular macrophyte species (Table 1). Aquatic designation follows habitat descriptions in Haines and Vining (1998), and includes submergent, floating and some emergent species. See Appendix 11.4 for list of species. Also included in Appendix 11.4 is the number of HUC-10 watersheds from which each taxon has been recorded, and the county-level distributions. Data are from nine sources, as compiled in the MABP database (plus a few additional records derived from ancilliary information contained in reports from two fisheries surveys in the Upper St. John basin organized by The Nature Conservancy). With the exception of the University of Maine herbarium records, most locations represent point samples (coordinates were provided in data sources or derived by MABP from site descriptions in data sources). The herbarium data are identified only to township. In the species distribution maps, town-level records are indicated by center-points (centroids). Figure 1 on this page shows as polygons the towns where taxon records are identified only at the town level.

    In “Love” Jukebox Memoir

    in “Love” Jukebox Memoir (release date: 2/25/14) After recording 2012’s Domestic Disturbances, I realized I’d been struggling on the last couple of records to assimilate some of our many influences into what could be described as “The Jet Age sound.” Thus the concept for this album: To “own” the music that inspired us, without worrying about appearances. Of course, we didn’t want to sound like a wedding band, so if a song didn’t make sense to a player, if it didn’t resonate, it wasn’t gonna happen. A few songs didn’t make the cut (notably my ABBA homage—seriously), but once we’d gotten those missteps out of the way, these tracks quickly fell into place: 1. I Can’t Turn Around – Deliberately written as a state-of-the-art Jet Age song, this track brings our memoir up- to-date. I’d initially attributed the extended outro to our stint opening for The Wedding Present during 2011’s Bizarro tour, but I realized we’d been doing stuff like this since our debut, 2005’s Breathless. 2. Come Lie Down – A dream come true for me as Swervedriver’s Adam Franklin and Ride’s Mark Gardener join me on vocals. When I first started making music, Ride really showed me how guys who sing like girls could rock like The Who, while Swervedriver gave me guitar heroics to aspire to. I also cribbed from Spiritualized’s take on the Troggs’ “Anyway That You Want Me” and The Wedding Present’s “Dalliance,” which is ironic, since the latter inspired me to pare back some of my shoegazing tendencies.
