Aeromagnetic and gravity investigations of the Coastal Area and Continental Shelf of Liberia, West Africa, and their relation to continental drift
John C. Behrendt, Cletus S. Wotorson
1970, GSA Bulletin (81) 3563-3574
An aeromagnetic survey has shown the existence of several basins in which magnetic basement depths are greater than 5 km on the continental shelf off Liberia. Magnetic diabase of 176 to 192 m.y. (Jurassic) in age intruding the Paleozoic (?) rocks and overlain by younger rocks onshore requires the distinction...

Water resources inventory of Connecticut Part 4: Southwestern coastal river basins
Robert B. Ryder, Michael A. Cervione Jr., Chester E. Thomas Jr., Mendall P. Thomas
1970, Connecticut Water Resources Bulletin 17
The 44O square miles of the southwestern coastal river basins (394 square miles of which are in Connecticut) yield about 183 billion gallons, or 23.9 inches of runoff during an average year. This amount of runoff is almost entirely derived from precipitation falling on the basins, and is eventually discharged...
The effect of anesthetization and urinary bladder catheterization on renal function of rainbow trout
J. B. Hunn, W. A. Willford
1970, Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology (33) 805-812
1. Rainbow trout were anesthetized with MS-222 (Sandoz) or methylpentynol and catheterized. Urine was collected at selected intervals up to 48 hr. 2. Effects of MS-222 anesthesia on urine flow and composition were isolated from the stress of catheterization by re-anesthetizing the fish 18 to 20 hr post catheterization....
Base-flow study of Suamico River basin, Oconto, Brown, Shawano and Outagamie counties, Wisconsin
Robert W. Devaul
1970, Report
The Suamico River is a gaining stream throughout its entire reach. No loss of water from the streams was noted between any measuring sites. The August 12 measurements were made during base-flow period when flow duration was about 50 to 55 percent (table 2). The August 28 measurements were made...
Base-flow study of Little Suamico River basin Oconto, Brown and Shawano counties, Wisconsin
Robert W. Devaul
1970, Report
The Little Suamico River is a gaining stream throughout its entire reach. No loss of water from the streams was noted between any measuring sites. The August 13 measurements were made during a base-flow period when flow duration was about 50 to 55 percent (table 2). The August 27, 28...
Base-flow study of East River basin Brown and Calumet counties, Wisconsin
Robert W. Devaul
1970, Report
Streams in the East River basin gain ground water throughout most of their reaches, however, ground-water pumping of the Green Bay - DePere area may reduce the water being gained by the streams from ground water. The August 13, 14 measurements were made during base-flow period when flow duration was...

Tholeiitic basalt magmatism of Kilauea and Mauna Loa volcanoes of Hawaii
K. J. Murata
1970, Die Naturwissenschaften (57) 108-113
The primitive magmas of Kilauca and Mauna Loa are generated by partial melting of mantle peridotite at depths of −60 km or more. Results of high-pressure melting experiments indicate that the primitive melt must contain at least 20% MgO in order to have olivine as a...

J.G. Moore
1970, Bulletin Volcanologique (34) 562-576
A computer analysis of tide-gage records in the northeast Pacific indicates that the active volcanic islands of eastern Hawaii are subsiding at a rate considerably faster than the eustatic rise of sea level. The rate of absolute subsidence increases progressively toward the center of current activity on the Island of...
Lead and strontium isotopes in rocks of the Absaroka volcanic field, Wyoming
Z. E. Peterman, B. R. Doe, H.J. Prostka
1970, Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology (27) 121-130
The Absaroka volcanic field is comprised of predominant andesitic volcaniclastic rocks and less abundant potassium-rich mafic lavas (shoshonites and absarokites). Strontium and lead isotopic variations preclude a simple derivation from an isotopically uniform source: Sr87/Sr86, 0.7042 to 0.7090; Pb206/Pb204, 16.31 to 17.30; Pb208/Pb204, 36.82 to 37.64....

Phenocrysts of sodic sanidine from twelve upper Cenozoic units of silicic ash-flow tuff and lava from the Western United States contain from 0.25 to 0.45 the Rb present in the associated groundmass materials. The ratios of potassium to rubidium in the sanidines are, on the average,...
