Albinism in lampreys in the upper Great Lakes
Robert A. Braem, Everett L. King
1971, Copeia (1971) 176-179
Albinism in fishes is relatively rare except in some stocks of hatchery-reared salmonids. In the Petromyzonidae, only four albino lampreys have been reported....
Effects of temperature on electrolyte balance and osmoregulation of the alewife (Alosa pseudoharengus) in fresh and sea water
Jon G. Stanley, Peter J. Colby
1971, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (100) 624-638
A study of the effects of temperature and salinity on ionoregulation in the alewife, Alosa pseudoharengus, revealed that concentrations of sodium, potassium, and calcium in plasma and muscle were similar in fish adapted to fresh water and those adapted to sea water. The non-stressed alewife is apparently an excellent...

Giant American brook lampreys, Lampetra lamottei, in the upper Great Lakes
Patrick J. Manion, Harold A. Purvis
1971, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (28) 616-620
Five female American brook lampreys, Lampetra lamottei, collected in lakes Michigan and Huron averaged nearly twice as long and about six times as heavy as American brook lampreys of normal size. Three factors suggested that the giant lampreys may have fed parasitically after metamorphosis: morphological adaptations of the species for parasitic...

Sea lampreys in the Great Lakes of North America
Bernard R. Smith
M.W. Hardisty, I.C. Potter, editor(s)
1971, Book chapter, The biology of lampreys
The movement of sea lampreys into the upper Great Lakes (Superior, Michigan, and Huron) initiated a series of biological changes which have extended beyond the fish directly attacked by the parasite. The threat posed by the sea lamprey was not generally recognized until it was well established in all...
Salmonid viruses: Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus
K. Wolf, M. C. Quimby
1971, Archiv Fur Die Gesamte Virusforschung (34) 144-156
Epizootics occurred among young trout in France, and the behavior and symptoms suggested infectious pancreatic necrosis (IPN) virus. Specimens preserved in glycerol were sent to the U.S.A. for virological examination. Virus was isolated from four of five lots, but neutralization with antiserum against ATCC VR299 strain IPN virus was incomplete....
A procedure for testing the antigenicity of vaccines for immunization of fish against Furunculosis
Jamieson E. Holway, G.W. Klontz
1971, Progressive Fish-Culturist 42-44
Furnunculosis, a bacterial disease caused by Aeromonas salmonicida, is potentially one of the most devastating diseases in trout and salmon hatcheries. The disease may be controlled by three methods. The most frequently used method of control has been drug therapy. Unfortunately, the bacteria often develop resistance to the...

Uranium-series dating of some pleistocene marine deposits in Southern California
Barney J. Szabo, J. G. Vedder
1971, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (11) 283-290
Analyses of uranium isotopes and their long-lived daughter products showed evidence of uranium migration in most of the 22 fossil mollusk shell samples from marine terrace deposits in southern California. Two samples, however, remained an ideal closed system as indicated by concordant230Th/234U...
Hydrogeochemical effects of injecting wastes into a limestone aquifer near Pensacola, Florida
Donald A. Goolsby
1971, Groundwater (9) 13-19
Acidic industrial wastes have been injected into deep wells in a limestone aquifer near Pensacola, Florida, since 1963. Prior geohydrologic studies in the area had indicated that the limestone aquifer contained nonpotable water and was overlain by an extensive clay confining layer.Two injection wells are presently being used to inject...
Tertiary climatic fluctuations and methods of analysis of tertiary floras
J. A. Wolfe
1971, Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology (9) 27-57
On theoretical grounds, an analysis of the physiognomy of a Tertiary leaf assemblage is more direct and reliable than a circuitous floristic analysis in assigning thermal regimes to fossil assemblages. Using primarily foliar physiognomy and secondarily floristic composition, it can be shown that: (1) some middle latitude Tertiary assemblages probably...

Genetic implications of the shapes of martian and lunar craters
R.J. Pike
1971, Icarus (15) 384-395
Craters on Mars and the Moon are alike in that larger craters differ in shape from smaller ones, and older craters differ in shape from younger ones. Smoothed depth-diameter curves for 41 large martian craters photographed by Mariner IV inflect at a crater...
A test of the 40Ar/39Ar age spectrum technique on some terrestrial materials
M. A. Lanphere, G. Brent Dalrymple
1971, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (12) 359-372
40Ar/39Ar age spectra were determined for 10 terrestrial rock and mineral samples whose geologic history is known from independent evidence. The spectra for six mineral and whole rock samples, including biotite, feldspar, hornblende, muscovite, and granodiorite, that have experienced post-crystallization heating did...
Calcium-magnesium carbonate solid solutions from Holocene conglomerate cements and travertines in the Coast Range of California
I. Barnes, J. R. O’Neil
1971, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (35) 699-718
Two calcium-magnesium carbonate solid solutions form Holocene travertines and conglomerate cements in fresh water stream channels of the Coast Range of California. Calcite does not yield the {015} diffraction maximum. The {006} diffraction maximum is lacking over most of the range of composition...
Thermoluminescence of Apollo 12 lunar samples

Thermoluminescence (TL) glow curve and decay characteristics of Apollo 12 fines and soil samples are similar to those from Apollo 11. Interpretation of the results from the core sample is difficult because of inadequate sample, spacing, but it appears that the part...

Sampling of fish muscle for M.S.222 and quinaldine residues
Charles W. Luhning, Paul D. Harman
1971, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (28) 113-115
Large variations in concentrations of M.S. 222 (tricaine methanesulfonate) and quinaldine (2-methylquinoline) residues occurred in various areas of fish fillets. Residue analyses of replicate samples from homogenized fillets yielded more representative results than samples cut from various areas of fillets....

Ship canals and aquatic ecosystems
William I. Aron, Stanford H. Smith
1971, Science (174) 13-20
Through a combination of ecosystem homeostasis and the perversity of man and nature, oftentimes the significant biological changes effected by environmental modifications are not detected until long after the initial change has taken place. The immediate impact, which may range from the spectacular to the undetectable, is a deceptive measure...
