Teton Dam flood of June 1976, Moody quadrangle, Idaho
William A. Harenberg, Bruce B. Bigelow
1976, Hydrologic Atlas 568
The failure of the Teton Dam caused extreme flooding along the Teton River, Henrys Fork, and Snake River in southeastern Idaho on June 5-8, 1976. No flooding occurred downstream from American Falls Reservoir. The inundated areas and maximum water-surface elevations are shown in a series of 17 hydrologic atlases. The...

Hydrogen and oxygen isotope exchange reactions between clay minerals and water
J. R. O’Neil, Y.K. Kharaka
1976, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (40) 241-246
The extent of hydrogen and oxygen isotope exchange between clay minerals and water has been measured in the temperature range 100–350° for bomb runs of up to almost 2 years. Hydrogen isotope exchange between water and the clays was demonstrable at...
Thermomagnetic analysis of meteorites, 3. C3 and C4 chondrites
J.M. Herndon, M.W. Rowe, E.E. Larson, D.E. Watson
1976, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (29) 283-290
Thermomagnetic analysis was made on samples of all known C3 and C4 chondrites in a controlled oxygen atmosphere. Considerable variation was noted in the occurrence of magnetic minerals, comparable to the variation observed earlier in the C2 chondrites. Magnetite was found...

Removal of toxic chemicals from water with activated carbon
V. K. Dawson, L. L. Marking, T.D. Bills
1976, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (105) 119-123
Activated carbon was effective in removing fish toxicants and anesthetics from water solutions. Its capacity to adsorb 3‐trifluoromethyl‐4‐nitrophenol (TFM), antimycin, Noxfish(R) (5% rotenone), Dibrom(R), juglone, MS‐222, and benzocaine ranged from 0.1 to 64 mg per gram of carbon. The adsorptive capacity (end point considered as a significant discharge) of activated carbon...
Antimycin: Uptake, distribution, and elimination in brown bullheads (Ictalurus nebulosus)
D.P. Schultz, P.D. Harman
1976, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (33) 1121-1129
Radioactive antimycin was readily taken up in bile and tissues of brown bullheads (Ictalurus nebulosus) exposed to 0.045 μg/ml of 14C-antimycin for as long as 48 h. Bile contained the most and blood the least radioactivity at all sampling periods. The highest concentration of 14C-antimycin in muscle was 0.12 μg/g, after 12 h of exposure. The...
Submarine geothermal resources
D.L. Williams
1976, Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research (1) 85-100
Approximately 20% of the earth's heat loss (or 2 ?? 1012 cal/s) is released through 1% of the earth's surface area and takes the form of hydrothermal discharge from young (Pleistocene or younger) rocks adjacent to active seafloor-spreading centers and submarine volcanic areas. This amount is roughly equivalent to man's...
Upland sandpiper nesting and management in North Dakota
L.M. Kirsch, K.F. Higgins
1976, Wildlife Society Bulletin (4) 16-20
Nests of 195 upland sandpipers (Bartramia longicauda) on the Missouri Coteau of North Dakota generally were well concealed by grassy vegetation which ranged from 15.4-30.8 cm in height. Nest densities ranged from 0.3 per 40.5 ha on annually tilled croplands to 6.8 per 40.5 ha on native grasslands during the...

Radiocarbon dates indicate rates of graben downfaulting, San Jacinto Valley, California
B. E. Lofgren, Meyer Rubin
1975, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (3) 45-46
Recent radiocarbon dates for wood samples collected from three depths in San Jacinto Valley graben indicate active tectonic downfaulting during the past 42,000 yr. The flood plain of graded San Jacinto River, entering the valley from the southeast and leaving toward the west, serves as a reference datum across the...
Relation of water level and fish availability to wood stork reproduction in the southern Everglades, Florida
James A. Kushlan, John C. Ogden, Aaron L. Higer
1975, Open-File Report 75-434
The wood stork is a species of colonial wading bird in the Everglades that is most sensitive to changes in the availability of food. Previous studies have shown that the initiation and success of wood stork nesting depends on high densities of fish concentrated in ponds and other catchment basins...
