Photogrammetry with surface-based images
Raymond M. Batson
1969, Applied Optics (8) 1315-1322
Stereoscopic pictures returned by surface-based imaging systems can be used to reconstruct the topography of landing sites on Mars and other planets. Large surface relief with respect to distance and the large scale variation inherent in surface-based pictures produce problems in stereoscopic measurement very different from those presented by high...

Fishery survey of U. S. waters of Lake Ontario
LaRue Wells
1969, Technical Report 14
Gill nets and trawls were fished by the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries R/V Cisco during September 19-23, 1964, at several locations and depths in the offshore United States waters of Lake Ontario. Water temperatures were low (3.7-8.3 A?C) at all fishing stations except one (16.4 A?C). Supplementary data were provided...

Ecological relationships of breeding blue-winged teal to prairie potholes
Rod C. Drewien, P. F. Springer
1969, Report Series 6
Ecology of breeding blue-winged teal (Anas discors) was studied on the Waubay Study Area in Day County, South Dakota, in 1965 and 1966. Breeding pair use of the wetland habitat and importance of Type 1 ponds in the wetland complex were evaluated. Changes in breeding pair densities and wetland habitat...
Laboratory studies on antimycin A as a fish toxicant
Bernard L. Berger, Robert E. Lennon, James W. Hogan
1969, Investigations in Fish Control 26
Liquid and sand formulations of antimycin A were tested in laboratory waters of various temperature, hardness, pH, and turbidity against 31 species of fresh-water fish of various sizes and life stages. Each formulation of toxicant was lethal under all water conditions to fish eggs, fry, fingerlings, and adult fish. Trouts...
Landscape esthetics: How to quantify the scenics of a river valley
Luna Bergere Leopold
1969, Natural History 37-44
There are an increasing number of bills before Congress that in one way or another affect the landscape or the environment. Each of these requires seemingly endless numbers of congressional hearings, which are recorded upon endless reams of paper.And if, for some reason, you happen to read the voluminous testimony...

Rapid determination of filterable residue in natural waters
Herbert E. Allen, Charles W. Bacon
1969, Journal - American Water Works Association (61) 355-356
The most widely used procedures for determining filterable residue (total dissolved solids) in water are macromethods given in Standard Methods. Although macromethods give good results, they require large amounts of water and long drying times. This report describes a microtechnique for determining filterable residue that requires only 0.05...

Insecticides and the Great Lakes
Robert E. Reinert
1969, Limnos (2) 3-9
Cracks in the perfect image of DDT appeared when traces of the insecticide began to show up in a wide variety of organisms throughout the world. As more and more people investigated this problem, it became increasingly evident that terrestrial and aquatic animals were accumulating comparatively high concentrations of...
Lithium and potassium absorption, dehydroxylation temperature, and structural water content of aluminous smectites
Leonard Gene Schultz
1969, Clays and Clay Minerals (17) 115-149
X-ray analysis of Li+- and K+-saturated samples, differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), and chemical analysis of 83 samples enable a distinction to be made between Wyoming, Tatatilla, Otay, Chambers, and non-ideal types of montmorillonite, and between ideal and non-ideal types of beidellite. The Greene-Kelly Li+-test differentiates between...
Lead isotopes in volcanic rocks and possible ocean-floor thrusting beneath island arcs
M. Tatsumoto
1969, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (6) 369-376
The isotopic composition of lead in the Japanese primary basalts gradually decreases in radiogenic character in a transverse from the Pacific Ocean side to the Japan Sea side, whereas the observed 238U204Pb">238U204Pb and 232Th204Pb">232Th204Pb ratios...
Melting relations in the Fe-rich portion of the system FeFeS at 30 kb pressure
R. Brett, P.M. Bell
1969, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (6) 479-482
The melting relations of FeFeS mixtures covering the composition range from Fe to Fe67S33 have been determined at 30 kb pressure. The phase relations are similar to those at low pressure. The eutectic has a composition of Fe72.9S27.1 and a temperature of 990°C. Solubility...
On the global variations of terrestrial heat-flow
W.H.K. Lee
1969, Physics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors (2) 332-341
Over 3 500 measurements of surface heat-flux have been catalogued and analyzed to study the large-scale variations of terrestrial heat-flow. It was found that heat-flow values are correlated with major geologic provinces: higher averages and scattered values in active tectonic regions, and lower averages and more uniform values in stable...
Anorthosite belts, continental drift, and the anorthosite event
N. Herz
1969, Science (164) 944-947
Most anorthosites lie in two principal belts when plotted on a predrift continental reconstruction. Anorthosite ages in the belts cluster around 1300 ±...
Alpine-type sensu strictu(ophiolitic) peridotites: Refractory residues from partial melting or igneous sediments? A contribution to the discussion of the paper: "The origin of ultramafic and ultrabasic rocks" by P.J. Wyllie
T. P. Thayer
1969, Tectonophysics (7) 511-516
Although Alpine peridotites and basaltic lavas are widely associated in eugeosynclines and oceanic areas, their genetic ties are obscure. Three major characteristics of olivine-rich Alpine peridotite and dunite—relict cumulus textures, aggregated masses of chromitite, and intimate association with magnesium-rich gabbro — cannot be...
Geochemistry and origin of formation waters in the western Canada sedimentary basin-I. Stable isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen
B. Hitchon, I. Friedman
1969, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (33) 1321-1349
Stable isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen, together with chemical analyses, were determined for 20 surface waters, 8 shallow potable formation waters, and 79 formation waters from oil fields and gas fields. The observed isotope ratios can be explained by mixing of surface water...
Geologic structure between the Murray fracture zone and the Transverse Ranges
Roland E. von Huene
1969, Marine Geology (7)
The Murray fracture has been thought to extend ashore into the Transverse Ranges of California, but a geophysical study shows no evidence of structural continuity between these features. Instead, basement morphology typical of the Murray fracture zone ends where its known magnetic and...

1969, Report
This report presents tables of suspended-sediment data collected from 1956 to 1967 at 10 sites in the Umpqua River basin. Computations based on these data indicate that average annual suspended-sediment yields at these sites range from 137 to 822 tons per square mile. Because available data for the Umpqua River...
