Residues in fish, wildlife, and estuaries. Indicator species near top of food chain chosen for assessment of pesticide base levels in fish and wildlife--clams, oysters, and sediment in estuarine environment
R.E. Johnson, T.C. Carver, E. H. Dustman
1967, Pesticides Monitoring Journal (1) 7, 10-13
Federal efforts to determine pesticide levels in fish and wildlife are being carried out by the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife, U. S. Department of the Interior. Monitoring estuarine pesticide levels in clams, oysters, and sediments is a joint endeavor of the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries, U. S....
Occurrence of the saw-whet owl in Florida
F.H. Lesser, A.R. Stickley
1967, The Auk (84) 425-425
On 31 October 1965 at 1000 hours we observed and collected a Saw-whet Owl (Aegolius acadicus) in adult plumage and in apparently good physical condition at Ponte Vedra, St. Johns County, Florida. The bird flew from beneath a truck to a cross beam in a garage adjoining a large, fresh-water,...
Lead poisoning in Canada geese in Delaware
George E. Bagley, Louis N. Locke, Gordon T. Nightingale
1967, Avian Diseases (11) 601-608
Trainer and Hunt (9) stated that lead poisoning of Canada geese (Branta canadensis) had been reported from three states: North Carolina, Indiana, and Wisconsin. More recently, the Mississippi Flyway Council (8) cited suspected cases of lead poisoning of Canada geese in Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware,...
Retention of extra-wide, lock-on, and regular bands on waterfowl
R. K. Martinson, Charles J. Henny
1967, Special Scientific Report - Wildlife 108
In tests of three types of bands -- extra-wide bands, lock-on bands, and regular U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service bands -- little difference was noted in the retention qualities of the three types on waterfowl. Therefore, there appeared to be no advantage in using either the extra-wide or the...
Tectonics of Antarctica
Warren Hamilton
1967, Tectonophysics (4) 555-568
Antarctica consists of large and wholly continental east Antarctica and smaller west Antarctica which would form large and small islands, even after isostatic rebound, if its ice cap were melted. Most of east Antarctica is a Precambrian Shield, in much of which charnockites are characteristic. The high Transantarctic Mountains, along...
Glaucophane schists from California and New Caledonia
R. G. Coleman
1967, Tectonophysics (4) 479-498
In California and New Caledonia, metamorphism of eugeosynclinal rocks has produced blueschist facies in limited areas. The outcrop pattern and structure suggest that the shape of the zone of blueschist metamorphism is elongate parallel to major tectonic trends. Juxtaposition of large ultramafic bodies, subparallel to the blueschist belts, indicates a...
The petrography of some Illinois Pleistocene and recent sands
R. E. Hunter
1967, Sedimentary Geology (1) 57-75
Some Recent and Pleistocene sands of Illinois and the nearby Missouri River were separated into three groups by petrographic characteristics that reflect source material. The sands derived largely or entirely from the glacial material of Illinois and the upper Mississippi, Wabash, and Lake Michigan drainage basins contain types of feldspars...
Techniques for computing rate and volume of stream depletion by wells
C.T. Jenkins
1967, Report
The effects on flow of a nearby stream from pumping a well can be calculated readily using dimensionless curves and tables. Computations can be made of: (1) The rate of stream depletion at any time during the pumping period or after the cessation of pumping; (2) The volume induced from...
Hydrologic effects of the earthquake of March 27, 1964, outside Alaska, with sections on Hydroseismograms from the Nunn-Bush Shoe Co. well, Wisconsin, and Alaska earthquake effects on ground water in Iowa: Chapter C in The Alaska earthquakes, March 27, 1964: effects on hydrologic regimen
Robert C. Vorhis, Elmer E. Rexin, R. W. Coble
1967, Professional Paper 544-C
The Alaska earthquake of March 27, 1964, had widespread hydrologic effects throughout practically all of the United States. More than 1,450 water-level recorders, scattered throughout all the 50 States except Connecticut, Delaware, and Rhode Island, registered the earthquake. Half of the water-level records were obtained from ground-water observation wells and...
Ground water in the vicinity of American Falls Reservoir, Idaho
Maurice John Mundorff
1967, Water Supply Paper 1846
Analysis of ground- and surface-water relationships suggests that increasing the capacity of the American Falls Reservoir by raising the height of the dam 15 feet would increase leakage from the reservoir by less than 0.2 percent of the average inflow to the reservoir, or less than 10,000 acre feet per year. This amount is...
Effects of the March 1964 Alaska earthquake on glaciers
Austin Post
1967, Professional Paper 544-D
The 1964 Alaska earthquake occurred in a region where there are many hundreds of glaciers, large and small. Aerial photographic investigations indicate that no snow and ice avalanches of large size occurred on glaciers despite the violent shaking. Rockslide avalanches extended onto the glaciers in many localities, seven very large...
Effects of the earthquake of March 27, 1964, at Seward, Alaska
Richard W. Lemke
1967, Professional Paper 542-E
Seward, in south-central Alaska, was one of the towns most devastated by the Alaska earthquake of March 27, 1964. The greater part of Seward is built on an alluvial fan-delta near the head of Resurrection Bay on the southeast coast of the Kenai Peninsula. It is one of the few...
Effects of the earthquake of March 27, 1964 on the communities of Kodiak and nearby islands
Reuben Kachadoorian, George Plafker
1967, Professional Paper 542-F
The great earthquake (Richter magnitude of 8.4–8.5) that struck south-central Alaska at 5:36 p.m., Alaska standard time, on March 27, 1964 (03:36, March 28, Greenwich mean time), was felt in every community on Kodiak Island and the nearby islands. It was the most severe earthquake to strike this part of...
Ground breakage and associated effects in the Cook Inlet area, Alaska, resulting from the March 27, 1964, earthquake
Helen L. Foster, Thor N. V. Karlstrom
1967, Professional Paper 543-F
The great 1964 Alaska earthquake caused considerable ground breakage in the Cook Inlet area of south-central Alaska. The breakage occurred largely in thick deposits of unconsolidated sediments. The most important types of ground breakage were (1) fracturing or cracking and the extrusion of sand and gravel with ground water along...
