1963, Water Data Report CA-63-2
The surface-water records for the 1963 water year for gaging stations, partial-record stations, and miscellaneous sites within the State of California are given in this report. For convenience there are also included records for a few pertinent gaging stations in bordering States. The records were collected and computed by the...
Dispersion in natural streams
Richard G. Godfrey, Bernard J. Frederick
1963, Report
Eleven tests were conducted to study the dispersion patterns of a radiotracer in five natural stream channels and in one canal. The radiotracer was injected as a line source. The patterns of dispersion that were observed in these channels were compared with patterns predicted by the theoretical models for one-dimensional...

The peg claims spodumene pegmatites, Maine
H. W. Sundelius
1963, Economic Geology (58) 84-106
The Peg Claims pegmatites are located southwest of Rockland in the towns of Warren and Cushing, Knox County, Maine. These pegmatites are representative of a group of zoned, granitic, lithium-bearing pegmatites in which spodumene is present nearly from wall to wall. The pegmatites are discordant, steeply dipping, tabular bodies in the Penobscot quartz-mica schist near...
Late Pleistocene glacial drainage in the Devils Lake Region, North Dakota
Saul Aronow
1963, GSA Bulletin (74) 859-874
The Devils Lake region of northeastern North Dakota is covered with glacial drift deposited by the Leeds lobe of the Mankato Substage of the Wisconsin Stage of the Pleistocene and is underlain by Pierre Shale of Cretaceous age. Associated with the Sheyenne River, which flows through the southern part of...

Floods in Wyoming, magnitude and frequency
J. R. Carter, A. Rice Green
1963, Circular 478
This report contains the results of four separate flood-frequency analyses designated A, B, C, and D. Analysis A is for the portion of Wyoming east of the Continental Divide. Analysis B applies to the portion of Wyoming in Part 9, as designated in streamflow reports entitled "Surface Water Supply of...
Diffusion of herbicides through plastic film
W.R. Bridges, Herman O. Sanders
1963, Progressive Fish-Culturist (25) 213-214
Plastic film have been used by fishery workers as barriers to subdivide experimental ponds in order to assess the value of some chemical treatment, and as test vessels to contain dilute solutions or suspensions of toxic chemicals in experiments conducted to establish tolerance levels of these chemicals for fish....
A plane-type soil sampler
Paul J. Frey
1963, Progressive Fish-Culturist (25) 46-49
While studying the effects of pesticides on fish and their environment for the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife, I have developed a soil sampler that will collect a thin uniform layer of sediment from pond and stream bottoms. As it is becoming increasingly important to analyze the residual deposits...

Quantitation of microorganic compounds in waters of the Great Lakes by adsorption on activated carbon
Stacy L. Daniels, Lloyd L. Kempe, E. S. Graham, Alfred M. Beeton
1963, Conference Paper, Proceedings of the 6th Conference on Great Lakes Research
Microorganic compounds in waters of Lakes Michigan and Huron have been sampled by adsorption on activated carbon in filters installed aboard the M/V Cisco and at the Hammond Bay Laboratory of the U.S. Bureau of Commercial Fisheries. The organic compounds were eluted from the carbon according to techniques developed at the U.S....
Publications on fish parasites and diseases, 330 B.C.-A.D. 1923
E.A. McGregor
1963, Report
These references were collected in 1924, but until now this collection has been available only in manuscript:fbrm. Because of the current increased interest in this field, this bibliography is being issued to make it more generally accessible. They include the earliest known references to fish parasites (330 B. C.) as...
Conversations on ecology IV
Luna Bergere Leopold
1963, The Garden Journal: Journal of the New York Botanical Garden (13) 141-142
The conversations on ecology have mentioned the pesticide problem, and in such discussion it is easy to lose sight of the basic philosophic view which is an undercurrent in Miss Carson's book. I should like to expand on that philosophic premise and examine some of its implications for planning vegetation...
Some climatic indicators in the period A.D. 1200-1400 in New Mexico
Luna Bergere Leopold, Estella B. Leopold, F. Wendorf
1963, Conference Paper
Three centuries before Columbus landed in America, the alluvial valleys of the south-western United States teemed with activity. The indigenous peoples had been building for 300 years a culture centred around community life based on flood-water farming and on hunting. A large number of pueblos had developed on sites earlier...
Simple measurements of morphological changes in river channels and hillslopes
J.P. Miller, Luna Bergere Leopold
1963, Conference Paper
One of the principal types of observational evidence on climatic changes in the recent geologic past is in river position and elevation. It is well known that river channels, particularly those flowing through alluvium or on relatively soft bedrock, tend to develop flood plains by lateral migration of the channel....
