Floods in the Skagit River basin, Washington
James E. Stewart, George Lawrence Bodhaine
1961, Water Supply Paper 1527
According to Indian tradition, floods of unusually great magnitude harassed the Skagit River basin about 1815 and 1856. The heights of these floods were not recorded at the time; so they are called historical floods. Since the arrival of white men about 1863, a number of large and damaging floods...
Hydraulic and hydrologic aspects of flood-plain planning
S.W. Wiitala, K.R. Jetter, Alan J. Sommerville
1961, Water Supply Paper 1526
The valid incentives compelling occupation of the flood plain, up to and eve n into the stream channel, undoubtedly have contributed greatly to the development of the country. But the result has been a heritage of flood disaster, suffering, and enormous costs. Flood destruction awakened a consciousness toward reduction and...
Hydrology of the upper Cheyenne River basin: Part A. Hydrology of stock-water reservoirs in upper Cheyenne River basin; Part B. Sediment sources and drainage-basin characteristics in upper Cheyenne River basin
R. C. Culler, R. F. Hadley, S. A. Schumm
1961, Water Supply Paper 1531
The objective of this investigation was to determine the effect on runoff of the many stock reservoirs in the Cheyenne River basin above Angostura Dam. As a first step it was necessary to determine, within reasonable limits of accuracy, the number of reservoirs in the basin, the storage capacity, the...

Records, ages, and growth of the mooneye, Hiodon tergisus, of the Great Lakes
John Van Oosten
1961, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (90) 170-174
Mooneyes (Hiodon tergisus) are very scarce in the upper three Great Lakes since only four specimens have been received from Lake Michigan, one from Lake Huron, and none from Lake Superior. The published statistics of the mooneyes are erroneous. Those of 1931 of Lake Michigan were perhaps chubs (Coregonus spp.)...
A back-pack shocker for collecting lamprey ammocoetes
Robert A. Braem, Wesley J. Ebel
1961, Progressive Fish-Culturist (23) 87-91
IN 1958, THE BUREAU OF COMMERCIAL FISHERIES began to use specific larvicides for sea lamprey control in streams tributary to the Great Lakes. The successful application of larvicides required treatment of all areas of the streams infested by sea lamprey ammocoetes. Intensive surveys were needed to determine distribution of the...
