In cows and rabbits, however, they detected little of this metabolite.  They found none in hens.  We found no 12-ketoendrin in birds of four orders that had been heavily exposed to or killed by endrin.  We suggest that residue work with birds need not consider this compound unless birds have been eating endrin-killed rodents.  White mice had much less 12-ketoendrin than rats, but had more endrin.  In tests with spiked samples, 12-ketoendrin was successfully recovered from extracts by gel permeation chromatography, but not by florisil.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Avian and Mammalian Wildlife Toxicology: A Symposium","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":4,"text":"Other Government Series"},"language":"English","publisher":"American Society for Testing and Materials","publisherLocation":"Philadelphia, Pa.","doi":"10.1520/STP35991S","usgsCitation":"Stickel, W.H., Kaiser, T., and Reichel, W.L., 1979, Endrin versus 12-ketoendrin in birds and rodents, chap. <i>of</i> Avian and Mammalian Wildlife Toxicology: A Symposium, p. 61-68, https://doi.org/10.1520/STP35991S.","productDescription":"vii, 97","startPage":"61","endPage":"68","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":267818,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1520/STP35991S"},{"id":200484,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a14e4b07f02db6028f5","contributors":{"editors":[{"text":"Kenaga, E.E.","contributorId":113958,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kenaga","given":"E.E.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":506124,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":1}],"authors":[{"text":"Stickel, W.

Residue analyses are used in evaluating organochlorine chemicals; samples may include whole bodies for determining level of exposure, brains for mortality diagnosis, whole blood for certain special studies, and eggs to help in evaluation of possible reproductive effects. Bird counts, singing-male census counts, small mammal trapping, and cage-in-field tests have proven to be ineffective or misleading and are not considered suitable for field evaluations under most circumstances. Usefulness of simulated field trials is limited to very special situations.

The genealogy of 261 of these geese was traced by archival research and three years of field observations.  Nest locations and densities, preferences for various types of artificial nest structures, clutch sizes, hatching success, brood survival to flight stage, and food habits were recorded.     Resul ts indicate geese may:,pair as yearlings, but these bonds may be broken and re-formed before breeding.  Pair bonding generally resulted in geese of similar ages remaining together until the death of one partner, although re-pairing, polygamy, and pairing between broodmates also occurred.     The dominance hierarchy of related birds strongly influenced the position of 'outsiders' pairing with indigenous females.  Dominant status passed not only from male to male, but, upon the death of the dominant male, in at least one instance, the surviving female retained dominant status.     Gang broods were composed of progeny of the rearing pair, plus goslings relinquished by female offspring or siblings of the rearing pair.  Among indentifiable geese, gang broods were reared by the dominant pair on each impoundment.     Geese retained their family integrity both in flight and during the post-molt dispersion.  Female and males paired with local females, nested in their natal areas.     No significant relationship (P < 0.05) was found between clutch size and age of the female.  Twelve-year productivity of the Patuxent geese appeared related to the reproductive success of a specific resident family.     Collars, legbands, and telemetry were initially used to distinguish conspecifics. It was subsequently discovered that individual geese could be recognized by cheek-patch patterns, unusual plumage, or mannerisms. It is suggested that cheek-patch similarities in related Canada geese might be used to trace gene flow within flocks, and may be used for individual recognition by other Canada geese.","language":"English","publisher":"Thesis (M.S.)--University of Maryland","collaboration":"OCLC: 10342153","usgsCitation":"Rummel, L., 1979, Canada geese of the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center: family relationships, behavior and productivity, ix, 179.","productDescription":"ix, 179","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":201369,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e49ffe4b07f02db5f774e","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Rummel, L.H.","contributorId":94766,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rummel","given":"L.H.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":327543,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

The deposits involve the upper 10-90 m of sediments, extend downslops for 1.8-7.2 km, and are present at water depths ranging from 545 to 1500 m. The characteristics of the deposits vary from thin, homogeneous or fairly regularly bedded lenses of sediment, to masses of intermediate thickness with contorted bedding, to relatively large slump blocks. A detailed survey of one slump mass just south of Hudson Canyon (by means of close-spaced Minisparker profiles and sediment cores) showed that it had a thickness of about 30 m and a volume of at least 0.4 km3 and consisted of homogeneous clay which accumulated rapidly during the late Pleistocene or Holocene. Although some of the slump deposits undoubtedly are relict, stemming from sediment instability porduced by rapid deposition during Pleistocene sea-level regressions, others were formed relatively recently. Possible causes of modern slumps include gas generation in the sediments, bottom-water turbulence on the upper slope, and shallow faulting. This study indicates that small-scale slumping in the intercanyon areas may be an important process in transporting sediments to the deep sea and suggests that recent mass movements may constitute a geologic hazard to future economic development of this part of the Continental Slope.&nbsp;</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/0025-3227(79)90110-5","issn":"00253227","usgsCitation":"Knebes, H., and Carson, B., 1979, Small-scale slump deposits, Middle Atlantic Continental Slope, off eastern United States: Marine Geology, v. 29, no. 1-4, p. 221-236, https://doi.org/10.1016/0025-3227(79)90110-5.","productDescription":"16 p.","startPage":"221","endPage":"236","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":222542,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","otherGeospatial":"Middle Atlantic Bight","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -73.88771708896576,\n              40.263326615601756\n            ],\n            [\n              -74.45922882846764,\n              38.633058616550365\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.58169389106907,\n              37.103688088321874\n            ],\n            [\n              -72.89701653441095,\n              36.7128742895589\n            ],\n            [\n              -71.92570445520803,\n              40.263326615601756\n            ],\n            [\n              -73.88771708896576,\n              40.263326615601756\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"29","issue":"1-4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505b919ae4b08c986b3199c1","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Knebes, H.J.","contributorId":19291,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Knebes","given":"H.J.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":363796,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Carson, Bobb","contributorId":38285,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Carson","given":"Bobb","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":363797,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

The following changes are noted as the depth-to-center decreases:</div><div class=\"u-margin-s-bottom\">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;1.

The pronounced mode II stress intensity associated with shallow horizontal slits explains the tendency for some sills to climb to higher stratigraphie horizons as they grow in length. The bimodal tensile stress concentration over shallow vertical slits correlates qualitatively with the distribution of cracks and normal faults which flank fissure eruptions on volcanoes. The solution may be used to analyze surface displacements and tilts over massive hydraulic fractures in oil fields and to understand the behavior of hydraulic fractures in granite quarries.</div>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/0040-1951(79)90353-6","issn":"00401951","usgsCitation":"Pollard, D.D., and Holzhausen, G., 1979, On the mechanical interaction between a fluid-filled fracture and the earth's surface: Tectonophysics, v. 53, no. 1-2, p. 27-57, https://doi.org/10.1016/0040-1951(79)90353-6.","productDescription":"31 p.","startPage":"27","endPage":"57","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":222308,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"53","issue":"1-2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a6ddce4b0c8380cd75371","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Pollard, David D.","contributorId":38549,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Pollard","given":"David","email":"","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":363755,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Holzhausen, Gary","contributorId":64389,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Holzhausen","given":"Gary","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":363754,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}
