Mineral and chemical variations within an ash-flow sheet from Aso caldera, Southwestern Japan
P. W. Lipman
1967, Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology (16) 300-327
Although products of individual volcanic eruptions, especially voluminous ash-flow eruptions, have been considered among the best available samples of natural magmas, detailed petrographic and chemical study indicates that bulk compositions of unaltered Pleistocene ash-flow tuffs from Aso caldera, Japan, deviate significantly from original magmatic compositions. The last major ash-flow sheet...
Observations on unmeasured rivers
Luna Bergere Leopold, Herbert E. Skibitzke
1967, Geografiska Annaler, Series A: Physical Geography (49) 247-255
An analysis of data on hydraulic parameters collected during a single boat trip down a river system is presented, plotted in form of the hydraulic geometry. A dimensionless rating curve is used to estimate bankfull and average discharge for basins of various sizes. When compared with gaging station data, estimates...
Hydrology of the Valley-fill and carbonate-rock reservoirs, Pahrump Valley, Nevada-California
Glenn T. Malmberg
1967, Water Supply Paper 1832
This is the second appraisal of the water supply of Pahrump Valley, made 15 years after the first cooperative study. In the first report the average recharge was estimated to be 23,000 acre-feet per year, only 1,000 acre-feet more than the estimate made in this report. All this recharge was...
Succession of rugose coral faunas in the Lower and Middle Devonian of eastern North America
William Albert Oliver Jr.
1967, Conference Paper, International symposium on the Devonian system
Rocks of Early Devonian age are widely but sporadically distributed in the eastern half of North America and coral studies are based on a very incomplete record. Middle Devonian rocks are thicker and cover a greater area. Both Early and Middle Devonian corals are more similar to western European species...
Carbon-13-rich diagenetic carbonates in miocene formations of California and Oregon
K. J. Murata, I.I. Friedman, B.M. Madsen
1967, Science (156) 1484-1486
Carbon unusually rich in C13(δC13 = +5.4 to +19.0 per mil relative to the Peedee belemnite carbonate standard of the University of Chicago) is...
Base surge in recent volcanic eruptions
J.G. Moore
1967, Bulletin Volcanologique (30) 337-363
A base surge, first identified at the Bikini thermonuclear undersea explosion, is a ring-shaped basal cloud that sweeps outward as a density flow from the base of a vertical explosion column. Base surges are also common in shallow underground test explosions and are formed by expanding gases which first vent...

This bibliography contains a complete listing to December 1966 of reports relating to the water resources of Utah prepared by personnel of the U.S. Geological Survey. Discussions of the related subjects of geology, hydrology, and chemical quality of the water are included in many of the reports. The reports were,...
Developing a state water plan: Ground-water conditions in Utah, spring of 1966
J. W. Hood, L. R. Herbert, R.G. Butler, R. W. Mower, A.H. Handy, R.M. Cordova, R.D. Feltis, L.J. Bjorklund, G.B. Robinson, G. W. Sandberg
1966, Cooperative Investigations Report 4
This report is the third in a series of annual reports that describe ground-water conditions in Utah. Reports in this series are prepared cooperatively by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Utah Water and Power Board and are designed to provide data to enable interested parties such as legislators, administrators,...
Ground-water resources of selected basins in southwestern Utah
G. W. Sandberg
1966, Technical Publication 13
The purpose of this investigation was to correlate the results of past studies in parts of five developed basins in southwestern Utah and to give a unified concept of ground-water conditions in the entire area. The area of investigation comprises about 3,600 square miles in Washington, Iron, Beaver, and Millard...
Water from bedrock in the Colorado Plateau of Utah
R.D. Feltis
1966, Technical Publication 15
The bedrock aquifers in the Colorado Plateau of Utah supply water that ranges widely in chemical quality and yield. The range of dissolved solids in 649 samples collected from 534 wells, springs, and water-yielding mine tunnels was from less than 100 to more than 390.000 ppm (parts per million). The...
Description of a bacterium associated with redmouth disease of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri)
A. J. Ross, R.R. Rucker, W.H. Ewing
1966, Canadian Journal of Microbiology (12) 763-770
A description was given of a gram-negative, peritrichously flagellated, fermentative bacterium that was isolated on numerous occasions from kidney tissues of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) afflicted with redmouth disease. Although the bacteria apparently were members of the family Enterobacteriaceae, it was impossible to determine their taxonomic position within the family...

Uptake of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid by Pseudomonas fluorescens
Gary Wedemeyer
1966, Applied Microbiology (14) 486-491
Factors influencing the uptake of the sodium salt of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), under conditions in which no net metabolism occurred, were investigated in an effort to determine both the significance of “non-metabolic” uptake as a potential agent in reducing pesticide levels and the mechanisms involved. Uptake of 2,4-D was affected...
Clinostomum marginatum in steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri) and cutthroat trout (Salmo clarki) in a western Washington lake
J. R. Uzmann, J. Douglas
1966, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (95) 35-38
Clinostomum marginatum (Trematoda: Clinostomatidae), the yellow grub parasite, was recorded in epizootic proportions from Lynch Lake, King County, Washington, in 1961 and 1962. The parasite larvae occurred principally in steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri); cutthroat trout (S. clarki) were infected to a relatively minor degree. Fish and snail host populations were...

A study of some effects of urbanization on storm runoff from a small watershed
William Howard Espey Jr., Carl W. Morgan, Frank D. Masch
1966, Report 23
The evaluation of the effects of urbanization on the runoff characteristics of a small watershed is a problem that can be studied by either a short-range or a long-range investigation. Because the long-range type of investigation would require several years for hydrologic data accumulation, it cannot provide any immediate information...

Water resources inventory of Connecticut Part 1: Quinebaug River basin
Allan D. Randall, Mendall P. Thomas, Chester E. Thomas Jr., John A. Baker
1966, Connecticut Water Resources Bulletin 8
The Quinebaug River basin is blessed with a relatively abundant supply of water of generally good quality which is derived from precipitation that has fallen on the basin. Annual precipitation has ranged from about 30 to 67 inches and has averaged about 45 inches over a 44-year period. Approximately 21...
Systems for monitoring and digitally recording water-quality parameters
George F. Smoot, James F. Blakey
1966, Report
Digital recording of water-quality parameters is a link in the automated data collection and processing system of the U.S. Geological Survey. The monitoring and digital recording systems adopted by the Geological Survey, while punching all measurements on a standard paper tape, provide a choice of compatible components to construct a...
