Wells and springs in California and Nevada within 100 miles of point 37°15' N, 116°25' W, on Nevada test site
William Thordarson, B.P. Robinson
1971, Report
Studies of published and unpublished geologic and ground-water data, for an inventory of 6,032 wells and 754 springs in parts of Inyo and Mono Counties, California, and Clark, Esmeralda, Lincoln, and Nye Counties, Nevada, reveal the following information:A complex sequence of granitic, metamorphic, volcanic, and sedimentary rocks of Precambrian to...
Water resources of the Coamo area, Puerto Rico
Ennio V. Giusti
1971, Report
This study, like other similar studies, was made possible by a cooperative water-resources program between the U.S. Geological Survey and the Puerto Rico Water Resources Authority (at the time), representing also the Puerto Rico Aqueduct & Sewer Authority and the Puerto Rico Industrial Development Company.This report covers the hydrologic investigation...
Open-channel integrating-type flow meter
K.C. Koopman
1971, Report
A relatively inexpensive meter for measuring cumulative flow in open channels with a rated control,. called a "totalizer", was developed. It translates the nonlinear function of gage height to flow by use of a cam and a float. A variable resistance element in an electronic circuit is controlled by the...
Application of remote sensing techniques for appraising changes in wildlife habitat
Harvey K. Nelson, Albert T. Klett, John E. Johnston
1971, Conference Paper, International Workshop in Earth Resources Survey Systems
An attempt was made to investigate the potential of airborne, multispectral, line scanner data acquisition and computer-implemented automatic recognition techniques for providing useful information about waterfowl breeding habitat in North Dakota. The spectral characteristics of the components of a landscape containing waterfowl habitat can be detected with airborne scanners. By...
Biology of larval sea lampreys (Petromyzon marinus) of the 1960 year class, isolated in the Big Garlic River, Michigan, 1960-65
Patrick J. Manion, Alberton L. McLain
1971, Technical Report 16
The early life history of the sea lamprey, from hatching to the first capture of metamorphosed individuals, is described from observations on a known-age population isolated in a tributary of southern Lake Superior. The population had its origin in the spring of 1960, when 722 sea lampreys nearing spawning condition...
Fluid inclusions in quartz crystals from South-West Africa
K.A. Kvenvolden, E. Roedder
1971, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (35) 1209-1229
Quartz crystals from calcite veins of unknown age in Precambrian metasedimentary rocks at Geiaus No. 6 and Aukam farms in South-West Africa contain both primary and secondary inclusions filled with one or a variable combination of: organic liquid, moderately saline aqueous liquid, dark-colored...
Sampling of fish muscle for M.S.222 and quinaldine residues
Charles W. Luhning, Paul D. Harman
1971, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (28) 113-115
Large variations in concentrations of M.S. 222 (tricaine methanesulfonate) and quinaldine (2-methylquinoline) residues occurred in various areas of fish fillets. Residue analyses of replicate samples from homogenized fillets yielded more representative results than samples cut from various areas of fillets....
Determination of silver in soils, sediments, and rocks by organic-chelate extraction and atomic absorption spectrophotometry
T. T. Chao, J.W. Ball, H. M. Nakagawa
1971, Analytica Chimica Acta (54) 77-81
A useful method for the determination of silver in soil, sediment, and rock samples in geochemical exploration has been developed. The sample is digested with concentrated nitric acid, and the silver extracted with triisooctyl thiophosphate (TOTP) in methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) after dilution of the...
Paleomagnetism of San Cristobal Island, Galapagos
A. Cox
1971, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (11) 152-160
Isla San Cristobal, the most easterly of the Galapagos Islands, consists of two parts: a large volcano constitutes the southwest half of the island and an irregular apron of small cones and flows makes up the northeast half. As some of the...
C13 and O18 compositions in some fresh-water carbonates associated with ultramafic rocks and serpentinites: Western United States
J. R. O’Neil, I. Barnes
1971, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (35) 687-697
All carbonates associated with the ultramafic rocks and serpentinites of the western United States are shown by their stable isotope ratios to be of near-surface, low-temperature origin. These include vein materials that have been previously classified as hydrothermal. New laboratory and natural data...
Kaersutite - A product of reaction between pargasite and basanite at Dish Hill, California
H. G. Wilshire, L. C. Calk, E.C. Schwarzman
1971, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (10) 281-284
Paragasitic amphibole, occurring interstitially and as veins in peridotite inclusions in basanite, has reacted with the host basanite to form kaersutitic amphibole. The amphibole compositions vary with respect to distance from the edge of the xenolith; iron, titanium, and potassium contents are...
A Pliocene flora and insect fauna from the Bering Strait region
D.M. Hopkins, J.V. Matthews, J. A. Wolfe, M.L. Silberman
1971, Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology (9) 211-231
A flood-plain forest has been preserved beneath a lava flow that invaded the Inmachuk River Valley in the northern part of the Seward Peninsula, Alaska, during the Pliocene Epoch. The fossil flora is of great biogeographic interest because of its position (Fig. 1)...
Nickel in high-alumina basalts
C. E. Hedge
1971, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (35) 522-524
New analyses of high-alumina basalts reveal an average nickel content higher than previously indicated. Ni in high-alumina basalts correlates with magnesium in the same way as it does in other basalt types. There is therefore no reason, based on Ni contents, to hypothesize...
Analytical sensitivities and energies of thermal neutron capture gamma rays II
F. E. Senftle, H.D. Moore, D.B. Leep, A. El-Kady, D. Duffey
1971, Nuclear Instruments and Methods (93) 425-459
A table of the analytical sensitivities of the principal lines in the thermal neutron capture gamma-ray spectrum from 0 to 3 MeV has been compiled for most of the elements. A tabulation of the full-energy, single-escape, and double-escape peaks has also been made...
Sea lampreys in the Great Lakes of North America
Bernard R. Smith
M.W. Hardisty, I.C. Potter, editor(s)
1971, Book chapter, The biology of lampreys
The movement of sea lampreys into the upper Great Lakes (Superior, Michigan, and Huron) initiated a series of biological changes which have extended beyond the fish directly attacked by the parasite. The threat posed by the sea lamprey was not generally recognized until it was well established in all...
