Geology and ground-water resources of the island of Niihau, Hawaii
Harold T. Stearns, Gordon A. Macdonald
1947, Bulletin 12
Niihau lies 171/2 miles southwest of Kauai. Its area is 72 square miles, and its highest point has an altitude of 1,281 feet. The population is about 180, chiefly Hawaiians. The annual rainfall at Kiekie, the ranch headquarters, generally ranges between 18 and 26 inches. The chief industries are the...
Geology and ground-water resources of the island of Molokai, Hawaii
Harold T. Stearns, Gordon A. Macdonald
1947, Bulletin 11
The island of Molokai is the fifth largest of the Hawaiian Islands, with an area of 250 square miles. It lies 25 miles southeast of Oahu, and 8.5 miles northwest of Maui. It consists of two principal parts, each a major volcanic mountain. East Molokai rises to 4,970 feet altitude....
Geology of San Antonio Canyon, California, in relation to ground-water storage
P. Eldon Dennis
1947, Open-File Report 47-33
At least two periods of relative stability in the history of the erosion of San Antonio Canyon are indicated by the bench-like features produced by the laterally cutting stream and by the remnants of older alluvium left by the stream when it was cutting at these higher levels. In addition,...
Age and growth of the kiyi, Leucichthys kiyi Koelz, in Lake Michigan
Hilary J. Deason, Ralph Hile
1947, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (74) 88-142
Ages were determined and individual growth histories were calculated from the examination and measurement of the scales of 1,649 kiyis captured at seven localities in Lake Michigan in 1931 and 1932. The numbers of individuals employed for the investigation of other phases of the life history (such as length-frequency distributions,...
Mortality of smelt, Osmerus mordax (Mitchill), in Lakes Huron and Michigan during the fall and winter of 1942-1943
John Van Oosten
1947, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (74) 310-337
The mortality that nearly exterminated the huge stocks of smelt in Lakes Huron and Michigan during the fall and winter of 1942–1943 appears to have originated in central Lake Huron in the Saginaw Bay area in late September or early October 1942. The mortality spread rapidly northward reaching the Drummond...
The sensitized luminescence of manganese-activated calcite
J.H. Schulman, L.W. Evans, R.J. Ginther, K. J. Murata
1947, Journal of Applied Physics (18) 732-739
Synthetic manganese-activated calcites are shown to be practically inert to ultraviolet excitation in the range 2000-3500A, while they are luminescent under cathode-ray excitation. The incorporation of small amounts of an auxiliary impurity along with the manganese produces the strong response to ultraviolet radiation hitherto ascribed to CaCO3:Mn itself. Three such...
Distribution, abundance, and spawning season and grounds of the kiyi, Leucichthys kiyi Koelz, in Lake Michigan
Ralph Hile, Hilary J. Deason
1947, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (74) 143-165
From May to November, inclusive, the kiyis of southern Lake Michigan (north to and including localities off Kewaunee, Wisconsin, and Frankfort, Michigan) characteristically inhabit depths of more than 50 fathoms, although small numbers commonly are taken in shallower water (as shallow as 20 29 fathoms). There is evidence that the...
Lower Middle Ordovician stratigraphy of the Shenandoah Valley, Virginia
B.N. Cooper, G.A. Cooper
1946, Geological Society of America Bulletin (57) 35-113
In classifying the lower Middle Ordovician of the Shenandoah Valley, the formation names Stones River, Mosheim, Lenoir, Holston, Whitesburg, and Athens have been used without adequate evidence. Detailed study shows that the so-called Athens and Whitesburg, as developed near Harrisonburg, are laterally continuous with the greater part of the Chambersburg...
Ground-water level fluctuations in Utah, 1936-45
H. E. Thomas
1946, Utah State Engineer Biennial Report 25
Ground-water investigations in Utah by the Geological Survey of the U.S. Department of the Interior have been in progress since 1935, in cooperation with the Utah State Engineer. This cooperative work includes (1) determination of the fluctuations of water level in most of the developed ground-water areas in the state,...
Ground water in Tooele Valley, Tooele County, Utah
H. E. Thomas
1946, Technical Publication 4
Tooele Valley is a typical basin of the Basin and Range Province located about 30 miles southwest of Salt Lake City. It is roughly 15 miles long and 10 miles wide and has a population of about 7,000. Bordered on the west by the Stansbury Range, on the east by...
Ground water in Pavant Valley
P. E. Dennis, G. B. Maxey, H. E. Thomas
1946, Technical Publication 3
The users of wells for irrigation in Pavant Valley, particularly in the Flowell district, have long been cognizant of their utter dependency upon ground water for livelihood, and were among the first in the State to make an organized effort to conserve supplies by prevention of waste. Since passage of...
Mica deposits of the Petaca district, Rio Arriba County, New Mexico
R. H. Jahns
1946, Bulletin 25
Wartime increases in demand for mica of strategic quality, beryllium, tantalum, columbium, tin, lithium, and uranium have focused attention on pegmatite deposits more sharply during recent years than ever before. Not only have numerous technical developments of the past few decades involved new uses for these commodities, but during the...
The whitefish fishery of Lakes Huron and Michigan with special reference to the deep-trap-net fishery
John Van Oosten, Ralph Hile, Frank W. Jobes
1946, Fishery Bulletin of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (50) 297-394
This study of the whitefish fishery of Lakes Huron and Michigan includes: (1) a review of the available statistics of production, 1879-1942; (2) a detailed analysis of the annual fluctuations in the production and abundance of whitefish and in the intensity of the whitefish fishery in the State of Michigan...
