These chemicals are indexed and classified according to the functional groups present and to the degree of substitution within their molecular structures. The results of reduction in food consumption for each compound appraised are calculated and their K values listed in Table 1.  The repellent activities of the functional groups represented, alone or in combinations, are expressed in Table II by a Functional Group Repellency Index.. A ranking of these indices suggests that acyclic and heteroyclic compounds containing tri- or pentavalent nitrogen would be a parent compound of choice for synthesizing novel repellents. Other molecular arrangements, spatial configurations and combinations of functional groups are compared.  There were 123 active, interesting or promising compounds included in the 699 having K values of 85 or greater, which were selected for the barrier appraisal study. These chemicals were formulated in selective solvents at several concentrations and applied to burlap.  Small food bags were fashioned using the fabric impregnated with the candidate formulation, and exposed to rodent attack following storage periods of varying intervals. The results of these tests are listed in Table III. Again, those compounds containing nitrogen in the functional groupings indicated a high order of effectiveness. Several commercial patents covering rodent repellents were issued using the data from the food acceptance and barrier studies. Organizations and cooperators which supplied samples for the program are listed in Appendix I. The Wiswesser cipher for compounds in Table I is used in Appendix II to facilitate location of chemicals by sample code number as they appear under the index headings, and for computer storage and analysis.","language":"English","publisher":" Food Engineering Laboratory, US Army Natick Laboratories","publisherLocation":"Natick, MA","collaboration":"OCLC: 2748732.

This is a general case and encompasses a number of important cases as simplifications.  Data on the mallard (Anas platyrhynchos) were used to explore the exploitation strategies and test several hypotheses because relatively much is known concerning the life history and general ecology of this species and extensive empirical data are available for analysis.  The number of small ponds on the central breeding grounds was used as an index to the state of the environment.     Desirable properties of an optimal exploitation strategy were defined.  A mathematical model was formulated to provide a synthesis of the existing literature, estimates of parameters developed from an analysis of data, and hypotheses regarding the specific effect of exploitation on total survival.  Both the literature and the analysis of data were inconclusive concerning the effect of exploitation on survival.  Therefore, alternative hypotheses were formulated: (1) exploitation mortality represents a largely additive form of mortality, or (2 ) exploitation mortality is compensatory with other forms of mortality, at least to some threshold level.  Models incorporating these two hypotheses were formulated as stochastic dynamic programming models and optimal exploitation strategies were derived numerically on a digital computer.     Optimal exploitation strategies were found to exist under rather general conditions. Direct feedback control was an integral component in the optimal decision-making process.  Optimal exploitation was found to be substantially different depending upon  the hypothesis regarding the effect of exploitation on the population.  Assuming that exploitation is largely an additive force of mortality, optimal exploitation decisions are a convex function of the size of the breeding population and a linear or slightly concave function of the environmental conditions.  Optimal exploitation under this hypothesis tends to reduce the variance of the size of the population.  Under the hypothesis of compensatory mortality forces, optimal exploitation decisions are approximately linearly related to the size of the breeding population.     Environmental variables may be somewhat more important than the size of the breeding population to the production of young mallards. In contrast, the size of the breeding population appears to be more important in the exploitation process than is the state of the environment.  The form of the exploitation strategy appears to be relatively insensitive to small changes in the production rate.  In general, the relative importance of the size of the breeding population may decrease as fecundity increases.     The optimal level of exploitation in year t must be based on the observed size of the population and the state of the environment in year t unless the dynamics of the population, the state of the environment, and the result of the exploitation decisions are completely deterministic.  Exploitation based on an average harvest, harvest rate, or designed to maintain a constant breeding population size is inefficient.","language":"English","publisher":"Ph.D. Dissertation, University of Maryland","publisherLocation":"College Park","usgsCitation":"Anderson, D., 1974, Optimal exploitation strategies for an animal population in a stochastic serially correlated environment, 84.","productDescription":"84","numberOfPages":"84","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":200982,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e49fae4b07f02db5f400c","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Anderson, David R.","contributorId":8413,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Anderson","given":"David R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":326960,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

The geologic history of the Great Basin indicates that it was the site of a succession of marginal ocean basins opening and closing behind volcanic arcs during much of Paleozoic time. A long process of sedimentation and deformation followed throughout the Mesozoic modifying, but possibly not completely transforming the originally oceanic crust to continental crust. In the Cenozoic, after at least 40 m.y. of quiescence and stable conditions, substantial crustal and upper-mantle changes are recorded by elevation of the entire region in isostatic equilibrium, crustal extension resulting in Basin and Range faulting, extensive volcanism, high heat flow and a low-velocity mantle. These phenomena, apparently the result of plate tectonics, are superimposed on the inherited subcontinental crust that developed from an oceanic origin in Paleozoic time and possibly retained some of its thin and layered characteristics. The present anomalous crust in the Great Basin represents an accretion of oceanic geosynclinal material to a Precambrian continental nucleus apparently as an intermediate step in the process of conversion of oceanic crust into a stable continental landmass or craton.</p></div></div></div><ul id=\"issue-navigation\" class=\"issue-navigation u-margin-s-bottom u-bg-grey1\"></ul>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/0040-1951(74)90107-3","issn":"00401951","usgsCitation":"Churkin, M., and McKee, E., 1974, Thin and layered subcontinental crust of the Great Basin western North America inherited from Paleozoic marginal ocean basins?: Tectonophysics, v. 23, no. 1-2, p. 1-15, https://doi.org/10.1016/0040-1951(74)90107-3.","productDescription":"15 p.","startPage":"1","endPage":"15","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":218601,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Canada, United States","otherGeospatial":"western North America","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -169.72745343452965,\n              64.94225735650696\n            ],\n            [\n              -137.99681091449418,\n              62.51527827933981\n            ],\n            [\n              -124.99021907022856,\n              49.37968315205388\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.64274386563778,\n              44.889886346972204\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.21856505792235,\n              35.74858752577241\n            ],\n            [\n              -119.31538889108757,\n              34.42969579305007\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.2445721017145,\n              50.61098655549629\n            ],\n            [\n              -129.69252445975633,\n              63.32657193606238\n            ],\n            [\n              -166.73043617272933,\n              66.95281776224854\n            ],\n            [\n              -169.72745343452965,\n              64.94225735650696\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"23","issue":"1-2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505bb2b9e4b08c986b32598d","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Churkin, Michael Jr.","contributorId":62566,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Churkin","given":"Michael","suffix":"Jr.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":357162,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"McKee, E.H.","contributorId":20736,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"McKee","given":"E.H.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":357161,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

The research area lies off four geologic divisions adjacent to the coast: the Atlas Mountains; the Souss Trough; the Anti-Atlas Mountains; and the Aaiun Basin. The continental shelf, along with the western Atlas Mountains, the western Souss Trough, and the entire Aaiun Basin, has subsided along a normal fault-flexure system. This system runs along the shore at the Anti-Atlas Mountains, and cuts off this cratonic block from the shelf subsidence. The shelf is narrow and characterized by out-building off the Anti-Atlas range, whereas it is broader and characterized by upbuilding to the north and south. Deposition was essentially continuous at least from Early Cretaceous through Eocene time. Published work suggests that the last cycle of sedimentation began during Permian rifting. After Eocene time, most sediments carried to the shelf must have bypassed it and gone to construct the slope and rise or to the deep sea. Tertiary orogenies caused extensive folding of Mesozoic and early Tertiary deposits off the Atlas Mountains.</p></div></div></div><ul id=\"issue-navigation\" class=\"issue-navigation u-margin-s-bottom u-bg-grey1\"></ul>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/0025-3227(74)90004-8","issn":"00253227","usgsCitation":"Dillon, W.P., 1974, Structure and development of the southern Moroccan continental shelf: Marine Geology, v. 16, no. 3, p. 121-143, https://doi.org/10.1016/0025-3227(74)90004-8.","productDescription":"23 p.","startPage":"121","endPage":"143","costCenters":[{"id":678,"text":"Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":219746,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Morocco","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -11.689453125,\n              27.994401411046148\n            ],\n            [\n              -4.21875,\n              34.08906131584994\n            ],\n            [\n              -3.779296875,\n              36.38591277287651\n            ],\n            [\n              -8.876953125,\n              37.16031654673677\n            ],\n            [\n              -12.041015625,\n              33.94335994657882\n            ],\n            [\n              -14.501953124999998,\n              31.203404950917395\n            ],\n            [\n              -13.886718749999998,\n              27.761329874505233\n            ],\n            [\n              -11.689453125,\n              27.994401411046148\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"16","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505b9c0ee4b08c986b31d256","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Dillon, William P. bdillon@usgs.gov","contributorId":79820,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Dillon","given":"William","email":"bdillon@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":678,"text":"Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":358460,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}
