Selective food preferences of walleyes of the 1959 year class in Lake Erie
John W. Parsons
1971, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (100) 474-485
Stomachs were examined from 1,473 walleyes (Stizostedion vitreum vitreum) of the 1959 year class collected in western Lake Erie from June 1959 to October 1960. In the same period, the relative abundance and lengths of potential forage species were determined from trawl catches. The walleye fed almost entirely on fish....
Alewife dieoffs: Why do they occur?
Peter J. Colby
1971, Limnos (4) 18-27
Periodid midwinter, early spring, and summer mortalities of alewives (Alosa pseudoharengus) have been common in the Great Lakes since the first appearance of the silvery marine invader in Lake Ontario in the mid-1870's. In 1967 a nationally publicized dieoff of tremendous magnitude (estimated at several hundred million pounds of...

Some blood chemistry values for the juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch)
Gary Wedemeyer, K. Chatterton
1971, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada 606-608
Overlapping Gaussian distribution curves were resolved into normal ranges for 1800 clinical test values obtained from caudal arterial blood or plasma of more than 1000 juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) held under defined conditions of diet and temperature. Estimated normal blood chemistry ranges were bicarbonate, 9.5–12.6 mEq/liter; blood urea nitrogen (BUN),...
Results from the apollo-12 passive seismic experiment
G. Latham
1971, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (3) 4-9
The objective of the passive seismic experiment is to measure vibrations of the lunar surface produced by all natural and artificial sources of seismic energy and to use these data to deduce the internal structure and composition of the moon, the nature of forces which may cause deformation of the...

Hydrogeochemical effects of injecting wastes into a limestone aquifer near Pensacola, Florida
Donald A. Goolsby
1971, Groundwater (9) 13-19
Acidic industrial wastes have been injected into deep wells in a limestone aquifer near Pensacola, Florida, since 1963. Prior geohydrologic studies in the area had indicated that the limestone aquifer contained nonpotable water and was overlain by an extensive clay confining layer.Two injection wells are presently being used to inject...

Sea-floor spreading at the junction between Gorda Rise and Mendocino Ridge
George W. Moore
1970, Bulletin of the Geological Society of America (81) 2817-2823
A Quaternary deformation pattern revealed by new sub-bottom acoustic profiles supplements previous knowledge derived chiefly from magnetic and seismic evidence on the contemporary tectonics off northern California. An inferred age for the sedimentary cover along the axis of the southern part of Gorda Rise suggests...
Lower Devonian graptolites from southeastern Alaska
Michael Churkin Jr., Herman Jaeger, G. Donald Eberlein
1970, Lethaia (3) 183-202
The youngest zones of Monograptus occur in Devonian black shale and slate along the western shore of Prince of Wales Island and on Noyes Island, southeastern Alaska. The following five species of Monograptus, in close association with vascular plants and marine shelly faunas, indicate a Praguian, (Siegenian to Early...

Effects of a causeway on the chemistry of the brine in Great Salt Lake, Utah
R. J. Madison
