Use of microearthquakes in the study of the mechanics of earthquake generation along the San Andreas fault in central California
J. P. Eaton, W.H.K. Lee, L. C. Pakiser
1970, Tectonophysics (9) 259-282
A small, dense network of independently recording portable seismograph stations was used to delineate the slip surface associated with the 1966 Parkfield-Cholame earthquake by precise three dimensional mapping of the hypocenters of its aftershocks. The aftershocks were concentrated in a very narrow vertical zone beneath or immediately adjacent to the...
Significance of an aeromagnetic anomaly in the southwestern part of the Blue Range primitive area, Arizona-New Mexico
Gordon P. Eaton, James Clifford Ratte
1970, Open-File Report 69-84
In the Autumn of 1968 the U.S. Geological Survey flew a detailed aerial magnetic survey of the southwesternmost part of the Blue Range primitive area between Lat 33°21'00" and 33°29'00" N. and Long 109°15'00" and 109°22'30" W. The survey was intended to define more precisely a positive magnetic anomaly that...
Winds over saltcedar
T. E. A. Van Hylckama
1970, Agricultural Meteorology (7) 217-233
An analysis of hourly wind speeds above and within a stand of saltcedar near Buckeye, Arizona, reveals that in 90% of all observed cases, the wind profiles above the stand can be represented by the simple logarithmic equation: uz=u*k1n">uz=u*k1n (zz0)">zz0) where...
Caldera collapse in the Galápagos Islands, 1968
T. Simkin, K. A. Howard
1970, Science (169) 429-437
The summit caldera of Isla Fernandina, a large, uninhabited basaltic shield volcano, was further enlarged by 1 to 2 km3 in June 1968. A small quake and large vapor cloud on 11 June were followed 4 hours later by a remarkable volcanic ash cloud and, after another hour, by a...
Fin degeneration of young-of-the-year Alosa pseudoharengus (Clupeidae) in southern Lake Michigan
Edward H. Brown Jr., Carroll R. Norden
1970, Copeia (1970) 766-769
Young-of-the-year alewives, Alosa pseudoharengus, with extremely shortened caudal fins were observed at four locations in southern Lake Michigan between 1964 and 1968. Some of the fins appeared stunted or underdeveloped, but microscopic examination revealed a deterioration of the fins and not an ontogenetic abnormality. Deterioration of the caudal fin was...
Remote Sensor Application Studies Progress Report, July L, 1968 to June 30, 1969. Controlled Field Experiments
L. C. Rowan, Terry W. Offield, R. D. Watson, P. J. Cannon, H.J. Grolier, H. A. Pohn, Kenneth Watson
1970, Report
Field Sites have been selected for controlled experiments to analyze physical and chemical parameters affecting the response of electromagnetic radiation to geological materials. Considerations in the selection of the sites are the availability of good exposures of nearly monomineralic rocks, level of geologic understanding, and ease of access. Seven sites,...
Temperature tolerance of bloater (Coregonus hoyi)
Thomas A. Edsall, Donald V. Rottiers, Edward H. Brown
1970, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (27) 2047-2052
Juvenile and young adult bloaters (Coregonus hoyi) were tested for tolerance to high temperatures. The ultimate upper lethal temperature of juvenile bloaters (26.75 C) appeared to be slightly higher than that of young adult bloaters, but was similar to that of juvenile ciscoes,Coregonus artedii (26.0 C), the only other North American coregonine for...
Temperature tolerance of young-of-the-year cisco, Coregonus artedii
Thomas A. Edsall, Peter J. Colby
1970, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (99) 526-531
Young-of-the-year ciscoes (Coregonus artedii) acclimated to 2, 5, 10, 20 and 25 C and tested for tolerance to high and low temperatures provide the first detailed description of the thermal tolerance of coregonids in North America. The upper ultimate lethal temperature of the young ciscoes was 26 C (6 C...
An improved method for size distribution of stream bed gravel
Luna Bergere Leopold
1970, Water Resources Research (6) 1357-1366
Random sampling of surface rocks on a gravel bar is biased toward larger sizes which, because of their area, are more likely to be picked up. Weighting can eliminate this bias. Data on average weight of a single rock are used to change numbers of rocks to weights, thus yielding...
Toxicity of 33 NCS to freshwater fish and sea lamprey
Leif L. Marking, Everett L. King, Charles R. Walker, John H. Howell
1970, Investigations in Fish Control 38
The chemical 33NCS (3'-chloro-3-nitrosalicylanilide) was evaluated as a fish control agent and as a larvicide for sea lampreys at the Fish Control Laboratories of the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife and the Hammond Bay Biological Station of the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries. The chemical is rapidly toxic to many...
New homes for prairie ducks
Harold A. Doty
1970, Report
This pamphlet describes how to make, install and care for inexpensive duck nesting baskets. Ducks have been attracted to these structures in the prairies of eastern North and South Dakota, western Minnesota, and northern Iowa. Nesting structures can help increase the number of local nesting ducks, especially mallards....
