The physical behavior and geologic control of radon in mountain streams
Allen S. Rogers
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 619
Radon measurement were made in several small, turbulent mountain streams in the Wasatch Mountains near Salt Lake City and Ogden, Utah, to determine the relationship between the distribution of radon and its geologic environment. In this area, the distribution of radon in streams can be sued to locate points where relatively...

Geology and ore deposits of the Chicago Creek area, Clear Creek County, Colorado
J. E. Harrison, J. D. Wells
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 432
The Chicago Creek area, Clear Creek County, Colo., forms part of the Front Range mineral belt, which is a northeast-trending belt of coextensive porphyry intrusive rocks and hydrothermal veins of Tertiary age. More than $4.5 million worth of gold, silver, copper, lead, zinc, and uranium was produced from the mines...
Preliminary study of radioactive limonite localities in Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming
T.G. Lovering, E.P. Beroni
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 427
Nine radioactive limonite localities of different types were sampled during the spring and fall of 1953 in an effort to establish criteria for differentiating limonite outcrops associated with uranium or thorium deposits from limonite outcrops not associated with such deposits. The samples were analyzed for uranium and thorium by standard...
Ground water in northeastern Louisville, Kentucky with reference to induced infiltration
M. I. Rorabaugh
1956, Water Supply Paper 1360-B
In cooperation with the city of Louisville, Ky., the U. S. Geological Survey made a detailed investigation during the period February 1945 to March 1947 of the ground-water resources of a 3-square-mile area along the Ohio River north-east of Louisville. Test drilling shows that the principal aquifer consists of about...

1956, Conference Paper, Man’s role in changing the face of the Earth
When the vegetal cover is removed from a land surface, the rate of removal of the soil material, at least initially, increases rapidly. So well known is this principle that it hardly needs restatement.If attention is focused on any individual drainage basin in its natural state, large or small, and...

Biology of the sea lamprey in its parasitic phase
Phillip S. Parker, Robert E. Lennon
1956, Research Report 44
The investigations conducted on sea lampreys in aquariums were concerned with the duration of the parasitic phase of life, feeding, growth, and the interrelations between predator and host fish. Observations on lampreys reared from metamorphosis to maturity were made at the Fish and Wildlife Service Laboratory at Hammond Bay,...

Preliminary report on the geology and deposits of monazite, thorite, and niobium-bearing rutile of the Mineral Hill district, Lemhi County, Idaho
Edward Peck Kaiser
1956, Open-File Report 56-69
Deposits of minerals containing niobium (columbium), thorium, and rare earths occur in the Mineral Hill district, 30 miles northwest of Salmon, Lemhi County, Idaho. Monazite, thorite, allanite, and niobium-bearing rutile form deposits in metamorphic limestone layers less than 8 feet thick. The known deposits are small, irregular, and typically located...

Aromatic fluorine compounds. VI. Displacement of aryl fluorine in diazonium salts
G. C. Finger, R.E. Oesterling
1956, Journal of the American Chemical Society (78) 2593-2596
Several chlorofluorobenzenes have been isolated from the Schiemann synthesis of fluorobenzenes. These have been shown to be the products of two side reactions occurring during thermal decomposition of the dry benzenediazonium fluoborate salt containing coprecipitated sodium chloride, an unavoidable contaminant in large preparations involving the use of hydrochloric acid and...
Aromatic fluorine compounds. VII. Replacement of aromatic -Cl and -NO2 groups by -F
G. C. Finger, C.W. Kruse
1956, Journal of the American Chemical Society (78) 6034-6037
Replacement of -Cl by -F in aryl chlorides with potassium fluoride has been extended from 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene to less activated halides by the use of non-aqueous solvents, especially dimethylformamide (DMF) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Also replacement of -NO2 by -F in substituted nitrobenzenes was studied in DMF. As a direct result...
Status of sea lamprey control
James W. Moffett
1956, Wisconsin Conservation Bulletin (21) 14-17
Four experiments involving 873 bob-white quail (Colinus virginianus) chicks were conducted at the Patuxent Research Refuge, Laurel, Maryland. A comparison was made of calcium: phosphorus ratios of 1:1, 15:1, 1%: 1, 2:1, 2+:1,and 2%: 1in diets with phosphorus levels of 0.52, 0.75, 1.00, and 1.25 percent. The results indicate that...
