Destruction of the ecosystem in the Great Lakes and possibilities for its reconstruction
Stanford H. Smith
Remedios W. Moore, editor(s)
1972, Book chapter, Progress in fishery and food science
This paper is a review of the sequence of events within the Great Lakes and their drainage to provide a basis for interpreting probable cause-and-effect relations between events of settlement and changes in the ecosystem of the Great Lakes. Possibilities of restoration of the lakes are discussed. A plan to...
Some rates of geomorphological processes
Luna Bergere Leopold, William W. Emmett
1972, Geographia Polonica (23) 27-36
This brief report summarizes three sets of measurement data on certain processes.The first concerns the rate of movement of soil on hillslopes, especially by mass movement or slow gravitational creep. The results are abstracted from an unpublished manuscript by the junior author who reports on the measurements which Leopold began...

Some physiological consequences of handling stress in the juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri)
Gary Wedemeyer
1972, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (29) 1780-1783
The stress of handling juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri) in soft water and in water with added salts was evaluated using blood and tissue chemistry fluctuations as indices of metabolic and endocrine function. Changes in plasma glucose, chloride, calcium, and cholesterol levels indicated that significant...
Virucidal activity of two Iodophors to salmonid viruses
Donald F. Amend, John P. Pietsch
1972, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (29) 61-65
Wescodyne® and Betadine®, organic iodine complexes, were compared in vitro for virucidal activity against infectious hematopoietic necrosis (IHN), infectious pancreatic necrosis (IPN), and viral hemorrhagic septicemia (VHS) viruses. Both iodophors were about equally effective on all three viruses. Each iodophor completely destroyed IHN virus within 30 sec at 12 ppm iodine, and was...

Cloudburst floods in Utah, 1939-69
Elmer Butler, Ray E. Marsell
1972, Report
During 1939-69, 836 cloudburst floods were reported in Utah. The largest number was in 1965, when 88 floods were reported; 63 floods were reported in 1968, and 56 were reported in 1961. The smallest number of floods reported was three in 1944. In 1942, 1948, and 1950, six floods were...
Avian cholera in cedar waxwings in Ohio
L. N. Locke, R.C. Banks
1972, Journal of Wildlife Diseases (8) 106-106
Avian cholera (Pasteurella multocida infection) was responsible for a localized die-off of cedar waxwings (Bombycilla cedrorum) at Steubenville, Ohio in late June, 1968....

Ground-water outflow from Chino Basin, Upper Santa Ana Valley, southern California
James J. French
1972, Water Supply Paper 1999-G
Ground-water outflow from Chino basin was calculated ,by a direct method using the equation Q = PIA, in which Q is the quantity of ground-water outflow, P is the average coefficient of permeability of the sediments through which the flow occurs, I is the average hydraulic gradient, and A is...
Duck hepatitis virus Interactions with DDT and dieldrin in adult mallards
Milton Friend, D.O. Trainer
1972, Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology (7) 202-206
There has been considerable speculation regarding possible imteractlons within biological systems between synthetic environmental pollutants and infectious disease agents (1-11). This type of interaction has been studied in our laboratory using the mallard, Anas platyrhynchos, as a test species (5,6). Since adult ducks are refractory to the overt manifestations of...
Survey for infectious hematopoietic necrosis (IHN) virus in Washington salmon
Donald F. Amend, James W. Wood
1972, Progressive Fish-Culturist (34) 143-147
A virus disease of juvenile sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) has been a problem in Washington hatcheries since first reported by Rucker [9] in 1953. Presumably, the same disease has occurred in Oregon, and it is now referred to as the Oregon, and it is now referred to as the Oregon...
Geological framework of the south polar region of Mars
B. C. Murray, L.A. Soderblom, J.A. Cutts, R.P. Sharp, D.J. Milton, R.B. Leighton
1972, Icarus (17) 328-345
The first 4 months of Mariner 9 photography of the south polar region are discussed. Three major geological units have been recognized, separated by erosional unconformities. From oldest to youngest they are: cratered terrain, pitted plains, and laminated terrain. The latter unit is unique in occurrence to the polar region,...
Radiative-neutron-capture gamma-ray analysis by a linear combination technique
A.B. Tanner, R.C. Bhargava, F. E. Senftle, J.M. Brinkerhoff
1972, Nuclear Instruments and Methods (102) 61-72
The linear combination technique, when applied to a gamma-ray spectrum, gives a single number indicative of the extent to which the spectral lines of a sought element are present in a complex spectrum. Spectra are taken of the sought element and of various...
Fluorination of 1,2,3-, 1,2,4-, and 1,3,5-trihalobenzenes with potassium fluoride in dimethyl sulfone
R.H. Shiley, D. R. Dickerson, G. C. Finger
1972, Journal of Fluorine Chemistry (2) 19-26
Three trifluorobenzenes were prepared by reaction of the corresponding trichlorobenzenes with potassium fluoride or pottassium fluoride-cesium fluoride mixtures in dimethyl sulfone. Molar yields were 12.8% for 1,2,3-, 8.3% for 1,2,4-, and 56.2% for 1,3,5-. Improved yields of the 1,2,3- (23.9%) and the 1,2,4-...
