Simulation model of Cryptomonas ovata population dynamics in southern Kootenay Lake, British Columbia
James E. Cloern
1978, Ecological Modelling (4)-133
A one-dimensional transient model is developed to simulate observed population dynamics of a small flagellate (Cryptomonas ovata) in southern Kootenay Lake, B.C., during a 1-year period (1 June 1974-31 May 1975). The model considers advective displacement of C. ovata as water flows from its southern entrance into the lake and moves northward...
A selected bibliography: Remote sensing applications in land-use and land-cover inventory tasks
William J. Todd
1978, Report
The bibliography contains more than 300 citations of selected publications on the application of remote-sensing techniques to regional and metropolitan land-use and land-cover inventroy and analysis tasks. Most of the citations were published between January 1968 and June 1977, although some earlier works of continuing interest are included....
Manual on characteristics of Landsat computer-compatible tapes produced by the EROS Data Center digital image processing system
Patrick F. Holkenbrink (compiler)
1978, Report
Landsat data are received by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) tracking stations and converted into digital form on high-density tapes (HDTs) by the Image Processing Facility (IPF) at the Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), Greenbelt, Maryland. The HDTs are shipped to the EROS Data Center (EDC) where they are...
Water-resources setting, Martin County, Florida
R. Adam Miller
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-68
This report describes some basic principles of hydrology as they apply to Martin County, Florida. The major land features are described first, then the hydrologic cycle and surface-water and ground-water resource. Specific problems associated with population growth and the county 's development, such as saltwater intrusion and water use, are...
Digital and photographic processing study for shallow seas mapping from landsat
Brian P. Bauer, Lincoln Perry
1978, Report
The application of contrast stretch and haze removal techniques to Landsat/MSS imagery for shallow seas bathymetry is discussed. The application of these techniques is based upon procedures inherent in the EDIPS system processing. Application of both MSS band 4 and band 5 data are discussed in lx and 3x gain...

Marine diatom sequence in Miocene strata of the Chesapeake Bay region, Maryland
George W. Andrews
1978, Micropaleontology (24) 371-406
The Calvert and Choptank Formations exposed along the west shore of Chesapeake Bay in Maryland have been correlated with strata of early and middle Miocene age. The stratigraphic ranges of marine diatom marker species indicate a distinct diatom sequence in the deposits. A few diatoms that mark deep-sea Miocene deposits...

Uranium abundances and distribution in associated glassy and crystalline rhyolites of the western United States
Robert A. Zielinski
1978, GSA Bulletin (89) 409-414
The abundance and distribution of uranium have been determined in 11 units of rhyolitic lava and ash-flow tuff of calc-alkaline and transitional composition from the western United States in order to further evaluate the potential of rhyolitic glass as a source of uranium ores. Samples consist of coexisting obsidians, perlites,...

Metallogenesis in the western United States
P. W. Guild
1978, Journal of the Geological Society (135) 355-376
Although the Mesozoic-Cenozoic metallogeny of the western United States unquestionably resulted from convergence of the North American and Pacific Ocean plates, subduction alone does not adequately explain the distribution of the ore deposits in Laramide and post-Laramide time, when magmatism and mineralization extended irregularly eastward at least 1500 km from...
A paleolimnological comparison of Burntside and Shagawa Lakes, northeastern Minnesota
J. Platt Bradbury, Jean Waddington
1978, Ecological Research Series EPA-600/3-78-004
The paleolimnological records of Burntside and Shagawa Lakes in northeastern Minnesota reveal that these two adjacent lakes have been limnologically distinct for many years prior to the late 19th century activities of white men that polluted Shagawa Lake. Although both lakes occur within the same vegetation type and share much...

Neogene basin formation in relation to plate tectonic evolution of San Andreas fault system, California
Blake, R. H. Campbell, T. W. Dibblee Jr., D. G. Howell, Tor H. Nilsen, W. R. Normark, J. G. Vedder, E. A. Silver
1978, American Association of Petroleum Geologists Bulletin (62) 344-372
More than 90% of the known petroleum accumulations west of the San Andreas fault in California are in strata deposited in areally restricted Neogene basins that formed during a major tectonic reorganization of western California. These deep, localized Neogene basins replaced broad, regionally persistent Paleogene depositional aprons, although some of...
