The tullibee
Stanford H. Smith
1966, Minnesota Conservation Volunteer (29) 49-50
Early explorers and settlers of the northeastern United States and southern Canada found lakes teeming with fish that had white flesh and were good to eat. The larger of these they called whitefish, differentiating two kinds- the lake whitefish and the round or menominee whitefish. These looked much...
U.S. Federal research on fisheries and limnology in the Great Lakes through 1964: an annotated bibliography
Ralph Hile
1966, Special Scientific Report - Fisheries 528
The annotated bibliography is preceded by a brief account of the Federal research program in fisheries and limnology in the Great Lakes in 1957-64. The bibliography covers 314 papers by staff members of the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries Biological Laboratory in Ann Arbor, Mich., and 35 by associated scientists with...
The relation between molecular structure and biological activity among mononitrophenols containing halogens
Vernon C. Applegate, B. G. H. Johnson, Manning A. Smith
1966, Technical Report 11
The results of tests of the biological activity of certain nitrophenols containing halogen are reported. Some of these are shown to be significantly more toxic to larvae of the sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus L.) than to fishes. It is proposed that the death of lamprey larvae exposed to these compounds...

Some effects of Heptachlor on bluegills (Lepomis macrochirus)
Austin K. Andrews, Bruce E. Stebbings, Charles C. Van Valin
1966, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (95) 297-309
In complementary studies of the chronic effects of heptachlor on bluegills, four similar earthen ponds were treated once with different concentrations of heptachlor, and the fish in six plastic pools were routinely fed different levels of heptachlor. A fifth pond and two plastic pools were used as controls. Higher dosages...
Determination of Columbia River flow times from Pasco, Washington using radioactive tracers introduced by the Hanford reactors
Jack L. Nelson, R.W. Perkins, W.L. Haushild
1966, Water Resources Research (2) 31-39
Radioactive tracers introduced into the Columbia River in cooling water from the Hanford reactors were used to measure flow times downstream from Pasco, Washington, as far as Astoria, Oregon. The use of two tracer methods was investigated. One method used the decay of a steady release of Na24 (15-hour half-life)...
Waste injection into a deep limestone in northwestern Florida
J.T. Barraclough
1966, Groundwater (4) 22-24
During a three-month trial period, 70 million gallons of industrial wastes were successfully injected at moderate pressures into a deep limestone in the westernmost part of Florida. The movement of these wastes is expected to be predominantly southward toward the natural discharge area which is presumed to be far out...
Uptake of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid by Pseudomonas fluorescens
Gary Wedemeyer
1966, Applied and Environmental Microbiology (14) 486-491
Factors influencing the uptake of the sodium salt of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), under conditions in which no net metabolism occurred, were investigated in an effort to determine both the significance of “non-metabolic” uptake as a potential agent in reducing pesticide levels and the mechanisms involved. Uptake of 2,4-D was affected...
Sediment movement on the continental shelf near Washington and Oregon
M. Grant Gross, Jack L. Nelson
1966, Science (154) 879-885
The nuclides zinc-65 and cobalt-60 associated with river-borne particulate matter are incorporated in sediment on the Continental Shelf near the Colum- ia River. Changes in the relative concentrations of zinc-65 and cobalt-60 and in the ratio of the activity of zinc-65 and cobalt-60 suggest that radioactive sediment moves northward 12...
Some Debye temperatures from single-crystal elastic constant data
R. A. Robie, J.L. Edwards
1966, Journal of Applied Physics (37) 2659-2663
The mean velocity of sound has been calculated for 14 crystalline solids by using the best recent values of their single‐crystal elastic stiffness constants. These mean sound velocities have been used to obtain the elastic Debye temperatures θDe for these materials. Models of the three wave velocity surfaces for calcite are illustrated....
The 1963–65 eruption of Irazú volcano, Costa Rica (the period of March 1963 to October 1964)
K. J. Murata, C. Dondoli, R. Saenz
1966, Bulletin Volcanologique (29) 763-793
The 1963–65 eruption of Irazú, like all others of this volcano during the historic period, produced only ash and other fragmental ejecta without lava. The initial outbreak on March 13, 1963 started with a series of great explosions that hurled out much ash, blocks, and bombs, but the activity...

A feasibility study has been made to operate by remote control an unshielded portable positive-ion accelerator type neutron source to induce activities in the ground or rock by “in situ” neutron irradiation. Selective activation techniques make it possible to detect some thirty or...

Preparation of dart tags for use in the field

Rare earths in phosphorites: Geochemistry and potential recovery
Z. S. Altschuler, Sol Berman, Frank Cuttitta
1966, Open-File Report 66-3
Rare earths are but trace constituents of marine apatite. However, as millions of tones of such apatite are dissolved annually to make phosphoric acid, an opportunity exists for greatly increasing RE output as by-product of fertilizer production. New, complete, quantitative analysis of RE in representative apatite concentrates reveal that the...
Stream quality in Appalachia as related to coal-mine drainage, 1965
James E. Biesecker, J. Richard George
1966, Circular 526
A stream-quality reconnaissance at 318 locations in May 1965 offered the first opportunity for a contemporaneous regional collection and appraisal of water-quality data in Appalachia. The results provide a means of regional comparison of the influence of coal-mine drainage on stream quality at approximately median streamflow. The results disclose that...

Life history of the gizzard shad, Dorosoma cepedianum (Le Sueur), in western Lake Erie
Anthony Bodola
1966, Fishery Bulletin (65) 391-425
The rapid increase in the stocks of gizzard shad in Lake Erie since 1950 unquestionably had an important effect on the ecology of the lake. The present study, based on almost 24,000 fish collected by various means in 1952-55 in or near the island area of western Lake Erie was...
