Preliminary analytical results for a new U.S. Geological Survey Devonian Ohio Shale Standard SDO-1
Joel S. Leventhal, J.G. Crock, W. Mountjoy, J.A. Thomas, V.E. Shale, Paul H. Briggs, J.S. Wahlberg, M.J. Malcolm
1978, Open-File Report 78-447
Using several analytical techniques, results of analysis of U. S. Geological Survey new standard SDO-1 are given for selected elements. The Devonian black shale shows an organic carbon content of approximately 10.3 percent, a sulfur content of approximately 5.6 percent, and a uranium content of approximately 56 ppm. Some elements...
Use of Landsat data to assess waterfowl habitat quality
J.E. Colwell, D.S. Gilmer, E.A. Work Jr., D. Rebel
1978, Report
This report is a discussion of the feasibility of using Landsat data to generate information of value for effective management of migratory waterfowl. Effective management of waterfowl includes regulating waterfowl populations through hunting regulations and habitat management. This report examines the ability to analyze annual production by monitoring the number...
Empirical model of Skeletonema costatum photosynthetic rate, with applications in the San Francisco Bay estuary
James E. Cloern
1978, Advances in Water Resources (1) 267-274
An empirical model of Skeletonema costatum photosynthetic rate is developed and fit to measurements of photosynthesis selected from the literature. Because the model acknowledges existence of: 1) a light-temperature interaction (by allowing optimum irradiance to vary with temperature), 2) light inhibition, 3) temperature inhibition, and 4) a salinity effect, it accurately estimates...
Movements of walleyes tagged in eastern Lake Erie
David R. Wolfert, Harry D. Van Meter
1978, New York Fish and Game Journal (25) 16-22
In May, October and November of 1968, 2,456 walleyes of various ages were captured, tagged and released in eastern Lake Erie to determine seasonal movement of walleyes in that basin and the degree to which they intermingled with fish of the central and western basins. From 1968 to 1971, 275...
Fecundity of the bloater (Coregonus hoyi) in Lake Michigan
Lee Emery, Edward H. Brown Jr.
1978, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (107) 785-789
Using ovaries sampled seasonally from Lake Michigan bloaters in 1968-1969, we determined that one complement or modal group of eggs is produced each year and spawned mainly during January, February, and March. Fecundities estimated for 65 fish taken in October ranged from 3,230 eggs in one medium-size bloater (241 mm...
Atlantic Flyway review: Region V: Laurel, Prince Georges County, MD (390-0765)
Chandler S. Robbins
1978, North American Bird Bander (3) 69-69
Back-yard banding above the Patuxent River gorge was limited to early mornings and evenings on 28 days from 20 August through 12 October, and four full days within the same period.Although the number of birds captured per 100 net-hours was well above average in each of the three months, the...
Geomagnetic paleointensities from radiocarbon‐dated lava flows on Hawaii and the question of the Pacific nondipole low
Robert S. Coe, Sherman Gromme, Edward A. Mankinen
1978, Journal of Geophysical Research B: Solid Earth (83) 1740-1756
Radiocarbon ages have been published for nine basaltic lava flows on the island of Hawaii; the ages range from 2600 to somewhat older than 17,900 years B.P. By using the Thelliers' method in vacuum, geomagnetic paleointensity values were obtained from eight of the lavas; the ninth proved unsuitable. The paleointensities...
Impact of potential phosphate mining on the hydrology of Osceola National Forest, Florida
James A. Miller, G.H. Hughes, R. W. Hull, John Vecchioli, P. R. Seaber
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-6
Potentially exploitable phosphate deposits underlie part of Osceola National Forest, Fla. Hydrologic conditions in the forest are comparable with those in nearby Hamilton County, where phosphate mining and processing have been ongoing since 1965. Given similarity of operations, hydroloigc effects of mining in the forest are predicted. Flow of stream...
Evaluating call-count procedures for measuring local mourning dove populations
M.J. Armbruster, T.S. Baskett, W.R. Goforth, K.C. Sadler
1978, Transactions of the Missouri Academy of Science (12) 75-90
Seventy-nine mourning dove call-count runs were made on a 32-km route in Osage County, Missouri, May 1-August 31, 1971 and 1972. Circular study areas, each 61 ha, surrounding stop numbers 4 and 5, were delineated for intensive nest searches and population estimates. Tallies of cooing male doves along the entire...
Heritability of tolerance for infectious hematopoietic necrosis in sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka)
John D. McIntyre, Donald F. Amend
1978, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (107) 305-308
A hierarchical breeding design was used to demonstrate the heritability of tolerance for infectious hematopoietic necrosis (IHN) in sockeye salmon. Oncorhynchus nerka. Heritability was about 30%, indicating that artificial selection may increase the number of fish that can tolerate the disease....
Determination of dissolved boron in fresh, estuarine, and geothermal waters by d.c. argon-plasma emission spectrometry
J.W. Ball, J. M. Thompson, Everett A. Jenne
1978, Analytica Chimica Acta (98) 67-75
A d.c. argon-plasma emission spectrometer is used to determine dissolved boron in natural (fresh and estuarine) water samples. Concentrations ranged from 0.02 to 250 mg l-1. The emission—concentration function is linear from 0.02 to 1000 mg l-1. Achievement of a relative standard deviation of ⩽ 3% requires frequent restandardization to...
