Federal Great Lakes fishery research objectives, priorities, and projects
Howard D. Tait
1973, Conference Paper, Proceedings of the First Federal Conference on the Great Lakes
Fishery productivity of the Great Lakes has declined drastically since settlement of the area. Premium quality fishes of the Great Lakes such as whitefish, lake trout, and walleyes have been replaced by less desired species. This change is attributed to selective overfishing, pollution, and the extreme instability of fish populations....
The role of the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife in the Great Lakes
F. Eugene Hester
1973, Conference Paper, Proceedings of the First Federal Conference on the Great Lakes
Ecological blunders of man, such as timber exploitation, draining of wetlands, construction of canals and dams, and pollution have been mainly responsible for serious environmental degradation and catastrophic losses of fish and wildlife values in the Great Lakes Basin. Consequently, the major emphasis of the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and...
Annual compilation and analysis of hydrologic data for urban studies in the Austin, Texas Metropolitan Area, 1971

River channel change with time : An example
Luna Bergere Leopold
1973, Geological Society of America Bulletin (84) 1845-1860
Monumented channel cross sections were resurveyed over a period of 20 yrs (1953 to 1972) to determine the amount and kind of change of channel area and position on a 3.7-sq-mi basin, Watts Branch near Rockville, Maryland. For the first 12 yrs, the channel progressively but slowly became smaller as...

Inorganic chemical investigation by x-ray fluorescence analysis: The Viking Mars Lander
P. Toulmin III, A. K. Baird, B. C. Clark, Klaus Keil, H. J. Rose Jr.
1973, Icarus (20) 153-178
The inorganic chemical investigation added in August 1972 to the Viking Lander scientific package will utilize an energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometer in which four sealed, gas-filled proportional counters will detect X-rays emitted from samples of the Martian surface materials irradiated by X-rays from radioisotope sources (55Fe and 109Cd). The output...
