The accompanying map shows the location of the principal deposits of thorium and rare-earth minerals in the United States (excluding Alaska and Hawaii). Symbols of different shapes are used to depict deposits of different geologic types, and sizes of symbols denote the relative importance of the deposits. Because of scale...
Records of selected wells and springs, selected drillers' logs of wells, and chemical analyses of ground and surface waters, northern Utah Valley, Utah County, Utah

This report is intended to serve two purposes: (1) to make available to the public basic ground-water data useful in planning and studying development of water resources and (2) to supplement an interpretive report that will be published later.Records were collected during the period 1956-59 by the U.S. Geological Survey...
The Vigil Network
Luna Bergere Leopold
1962, International Association of Scientific Hydrology - Bulletin (7) 5-9
Those of us who seek to explain the variations in hydrologic phenomena such as may be observed in the occurrence of floods or in changes in the shape of river channels are painfully aware of the lack of adequate data. Our existing data, collected mainly to serve immediate practical needs...
Rivers
Luna Bergere Leopold
1962, American Scientist (50) 511-537
Rivers are both the means and the routes by which the products of continental weathering are carried to the oceans of the world. Except in the most arid areas more water falls as precipitation than is lost by evaporation and transpiration from the land surface to the atmosphere. Thus there...
Water
Luna Bergere Leopold, Helene L. Baldwin
1962, Book
What do you use water for?If someone asked you this question you would probably think right away of water for drinking. Then you would think of water for bathing, brushing teeth, flushing the toilet. Your list would get longer as you thought of water for cooking, washing the dishes, running...

Distribution and detoxication of toxaphene in Clayton Lake, New Mexico
Burton J. Kallman, Oliver B. Cope, Richard J. Navarre
1962, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (91) 14-22
The fate of toxaphene, applied in three treatments at a total calculated concentration of 0.05 p.p.m. to Clayton Lake, New Mexico, was followed over a 1.5-year period. A detailed description of the chromatographic method of analysis is given. Water concentrations of toxaphene were higher in leeshore samples than in windward...

Water and the arid zone of the United States
Luna Bergere Leopold
1962, Conference Paper
In a pluvial period associated with Wisconsin glaciation the closed basin of the Estancia Valley in New Mexico held a lake which, at its maximum extent, was 150 feet deep and had a surface area of 450 square miles. This basin, with a mean elevation of about 6,000 feet, has...

Developing ground water in the central Sevier Valley, Utah
Richard A. Young, Carl H. Carpenter
1961, Utah State Engineer Information Bulletin 5
This report presents a summary of conclusions reached from the recently completed State Engineer-United States Geological Survey cooperative investigation of the geology and ground water resources of the central Sevier River Valley. The detailed report will be published as a United States Geological Survey water supply paper and will be...
Relation of the deep and shallow artesian aquifers near Lynndyl, Utah
R. W. Mower
1961, Utah State Engineer Information Bulletin 7
Ground water occurs in several aquifers in the vicinity of Lynndyl, Utah. There are one shallow perched water-table aquifer and at least two artisan aquifers. The perched aquifer is not related to the artisan aquifers and, because it is relatively unimportant, is not discussed here. Pumping tests made during the...
Geology and ground-water resources of Sumner County, Kansas
K.L. Walters
1961, Kansas Geological Survey Bulletin (151)
This report describes the geography, geology, and ground-water resources of Sumner County in south-central Kansas. The hydrologic and geologic data upon which this report is based were obtained in the field during the summers of 1955 and 1956. Records of 300 wells and 2 springs, chemical analyses of 219 water...
Trout hepatoma--a preliminary report
R.R. Rucker, W. T. Yasutake, H. Wolf
1961, Progressive Fish-Culturist (23) 3-7
Fish pathology and its role in fish culture were brought into prominence in the spring of 1960 by the disclosure of a high incidence of hepatomas in hatchery-reared rainbow trout. The current problem came to light as the result of a routine inspection of live trout shipments at a California...
Blood types in Pacific salmon
G.L. Ridgway, G.W. Klontz
1961, International North Pacific Fisheries Commission Bulletin 49-55
Intraspecific differences in erythrocyte antigens (blood types) were shown to occur in four species of Pacific salmon, the sockeye or red salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka), the chinook or king salmon (0. tshawytscha), the chum salmon (O. keta), and the pink salmon (O. gorbuscha). Antisalmon-erythrocyte sera prepared in rabbits and chickens were...

Chemotherapy of hexamitiasis in fish
W. T. Yasutake, D. R. Buhler, W.E. Shanks
1961, Journal of Parasitology (47) 81-86
Heramita salmonis, the causative agent of hexamitiasis in salmonoid fishes, is endemic in most trout and salmon hatcheries throughout North America. The etiologic agent, a protozoan flagellate, ostensibly causes cellular damage in the caecal mucosa of afflicted fishes. It is also believed that heavy infections may interfere with normal growth...
The use of merthiolate on green eggs of the Chinook salmon
R.R. Rucker
1961, Progressive Fish-Culturist (23) 138-141
MERTHIOLATE has been used as a disinfecting agent for green and eyed eggs of various species (Gee and Sarles 1942, Snieszko and Friddle 1948). The present report is a description of the effects of the chemical on green eggs of the chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha). The need for this study was...
Rapid counting of nematoda in salmon by peptic digestion
Joseph A. Stern, Diptiman Chakravarti, J. R. Uzmann, M. N. Hesselholt
1961, International North Pacific Fisheries Commission Bulletin (3)
The nematode parasite Anisakis sp. can be recovered, relatively unaltered, from chum salmon musculature by high temperature (52°+2°C.) peptic digestion of the flesh. The procedure, which is presented in detail, appears to be more thorough in isolating the parasite than dissection of the flesh and manual isolation of the worms....
A preliminary study of the distribution of saline water in the bedrock aquifers of eastern Wisconsin
Roy W. Ryling
1961, Wisconsin Geological & Natural History Survey Information Circular 5
The occurrence of saline water in the bedrock aquifers of eastern Wisconsin has been known for many years. Because of the ready availability of fresh water from other sources, little has been known of the extent of the saline-water area. Saline ground water is a potential source of contamination to...
