The Big Bone Lick area in Kentucky, the first widely known collecting locality for vertebrate fossils in North America, is being investigated for further faunal and geologic evidence. Mammal bones, ranging in age from Wisconsin (Tazewell?) to Recent, were recovered in 1962 from four different faunal zones in two terrace fills.

Excessive mortality occurred only in lots treated with high concentrations of DDT, probably as a result of decreased resistance to nonspecific stressors. Surviving fish in these lots were significantly larger than those in the control lot, or in the lots treated with low concentrations of DDT. The number and volume of eggs produced was not reduced by DDT, but mortality among sac fry appeared to be highest in the lots treated with high concentrations. The data suggest that the sublethal concentrations of DDT ordinarily encountered in the environment are unlikely to damage a fishery.

Most of the sand appears to have been derived from the east and to have moved south-westward parallel to the axis of the Appalachian geosyncline. The pattern has a similar alignment to that in the Illinois basin, but it is at right angles to earlier Paleozoic dispersal directions in the Appalachian geosyncline. Little or no sand has been contributed from the Cincinnati arch.
The cross-beds are in sheetlike sandstone formations; the sandstone is conglomeratic, contains plant impressions, and is composed of lenticular, channeling, quartzose sedimentation units. The variation in thickness and lateral persistence of sedimentation units is also reflected in a moderate variability of mean cross-bedding directions between adjacent formations, and even within the same formation. Cross-bedding variability between adjacent units is thought to be due to regional changes in the position and orientation of channel-way systems from deposition of one sandstone formation to the next. Changes of cross-bedding azimuths within the same formation may result from channel curvature of local meanderlike deposits or from channel migration as the sands coalesced into a blanket deposit.

Using the camera, the rocks can be viewed in place. Of great importance to the ground‐water studies in coastal Georgia, the camera enables the geologist to see the important water‐bearing zones in a limestone aquifer, and to recognize cracks and solution cavities, the changes in geologic formations, and the irregularities in the well bore that indicate the relative hardness of the rocks. The engineer, well driller, and water developer can examine a well when “trouble shooting” to see whether the casing is broken, whether screens are eroded, or whether the well contains obstructions.

The rock units composing this system consist (in ascending order) of dolomite, clay till (unit 4), glaciofluvial sand (unit 3), clay till (unit 2), and lacustrine sand, silt, and clay (unit 1). The dolomite and unit 3 form the principal aquifers and the clay tills, units 4 and 2, the confining layers. The geohydrology of the confining layers controls to a large extent the rate at which the aquifers are recharged from local precipitation and, thereby, their potential yield. Unit 4, the dolomite's confining layer, has an estimated average vertical permeability of about 0.003 gpd (gallon per day) per square foot. Under present conditions of head difference, the rate of recharge to the dolomite through unit 4 is estimated to average 20,000 gpd per square mile. Unit 2, the confining layer for unit 3, has an average estimated vertical permeability of about 0.007 gpd per square foot. Under present conditions of head difference the recharge through unit 3's confining layer is estimated to average about 100,000 gpd per square mile. However, these rates of recharge can be expected to increase as the head difference across each confining layer increases with extensive development of the aquifer.

The channel patterns of these rivers were classified into five types: tortuous, irregular, regular, transitional, and straight. Because no clear demarcation existed between each of the types, the pattern of the rivers was described by sinuosity, a ratio of channel length to valley length. The sinuosity ((P)) of these rivers is related to the shape of the channels expressed as a width-depth ratio (F) and to the percentage of silt and clay in the perimeter of the channel (M) as follows: Sinuous streams are characterized by a low width-depth ratio (F), a high percentage of silt-clay in the perimeter of the channel (M), a high percentage of silt-clay in the banks (although the banks of straight channels may also contain large amounts of silt-clay), and a lower gradient than straight channels having the same mean discharge. Discharge itself does not appear to affect the sinuosity of streams. Another possible distinction between straight and sinuous streams is in the proportions of the components of total sediment load. In a wide, shallow channel much of the sediment transported is bed-material load. In a narrow, deep channel most of the sediment transported is wash load. On the Great Plains both straight and sinuous streams may flow on the surface of alluvial valley fills at about the same valley slope. The departure of a stream from a straight course down the alluvial valley results from changes in both the caliber of the sediment load and in the relative proportions of bed-material load and wash load during the post-Pleistocene alluviation of these valleys. When during this alluviation the proportion of wash load increased, most probably by a decrease in bed-material load, the stream adjusted itself by decreasing its gradient through the development of a sinuous course. Recent changes in stream sinuosity in response to changes in the proportions of bed load and suspended load support this hypothesis.

The unconsolidated fill and debris in the ponds consists of clayey sand and saprolite with accessory minerals that could have been derived entirely from the quartzite. The pond water contains appreciable quantities of dissolved silica and with the aid of organic substances could have formed the depressions by solution since the beginning of the Pleistocene.

The uniformity of the class of rocks was controlled by index of refraction determinations on fused beads and by chemical analyses of about one-seventh of the total number. The fluorine content ranges from 20 to 4,900 ppm. The frequency distribution closely approaches a log-normal one; the median value is 520 ppm, the 90 percentile 1,820 ppm. The mean for 167 samples is 820 ppm. These correspond fairly well with earlier averages for similar types of rocks. The highest values are predominantly from a belt in central Colorado and west-central New Mexico, from the Big Bend region of Texas, and from southeastern Idaho and western Utah and northeastern Nevada. The distribution of the fluorine in these rocks correlates well with the distribution of significant fluorspar deposits and somewhat less well with areas where volcanic rocks are prevalent and ground waters carry large amounts of fluorine.

Several possible causes for the anomaly were inferred from a literature search and from study of the core samples. Statistical analyses of the core sample data suggest the principle causes to be variations in particle size, the diatom‐skeleton content, and the type of exchangeable cation adsorbed by the clay‐mineral constituents of the sediments.

The ejecta consist of sandstone fragments, disaggregated sand, splinters of sand grains, strongly shocked aggregates of crushed sandstone grains, and chips, splinters, small amounts of silica glass, and minute spheres of steel. Part of the shocked steel was melted, and some of the melted and unmelted steel occurs as impregnations in the strongly shocked sandstone. Small amounts of glass, which were produced by shock from the sandstone, were found. The fusion of the steel cannot be due to compressive heating alone but can be partly accounted for by conduction of heat from the shocked sandstone and by production of heat by viscous drag and friction along the sandstone-projectile interface and along shear planes in the projectile.
An analogy with entropy production in steady-state systems leads to a statement that the geometry of natural waterways is governed by two opposing influences: a) equal work per unit of area of bed, and b) minimum work done in the system as a whole. The resulting calculations applied to shallow, estuaries are verified by field measurements.
