New chemical determinations of zinc in basalts, and rocks of similar composition
L. F. Rader, W. C. Swadley, C. Huffman Jr., H. H. Lipp
1963, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (27) 695-714
New determinations of zinc in 124 basalts by the chemical method described (Huff-Manet al. 1963) are reported. Average zinc values, in per cent, for basalts from diverse regions are as follows: Idaho, 28 samples, 0.013; Hawaii, 33 samples, 0.010; Connecticut, 27 samples, 0.0090; Oregon, 17 samples, 0.0081; California, 8 samples,...
Applications of geohydrologic concepts in geology
G. B. Maxey, J. E. Hackett
1963, Journal of Hydrology (1) 35-45
Subsurface water, an active agent in many geologic proceses, must be considered in interpreting geologic phenomena. Principles of the occurrence, distribution, and movement of subsurface waters are well established and readily applicable. In many interpretations in geologic literature, geohydrologic principles have been employed realistically, but in many others these principles...
Limnological survey of Lake Erie 1959 and 1960
Alfred M. Beeton
1963, Technical Report 6
Federal, provincial, state, and university organizations participated in cooperative limnological surveys of Lake Erie in September 1959 and August 1960 to determine the extent and severity of the low dissolved-oxygen content of the hypolimnetic waters. Observations were restricted to the central basin in 1959, but were lake-wide in 1960....

Age, growth, and maturity of round whitefish of the Apostle Islands and Isle Royale Regions, Lake Superior
Merryll M. Bailey
1963, Fishery Bulletin (63) 63-75
The round whitefish has been of some commercial importance in the upper Great Lakes but production in Lake Superior has generally been small; the United States average was 26,600 pounds for 1929-59. This study is based on 1,173 fish collected in the Apostle Islands in 1958-60 and 103 collected at...

A primer on ground water
Helene L. Baldwin, C. L. McGuinness
1963, Report
Most of us don't have to look for water. We grew up either in big cities where there was a public water supply, or in small towns or on farms where the water came from wells. But there are some people to whom finding a new supply of water is...
Ground-water data: Beaver, Escalante, Cedar City, and Parowan Valleys; parts of Washington, Iron, Beaver, and Millard Counties, Utah

Conversations on ecology IV
Luna Bergere Leopold
1963, The Garden Journal: Journal of the New York Botanical Garden (13) 141-142
The conversations on ecology have mentioned the pesticide problem, and in such discussion it is easy to lose sight of the basic philosophic view which is an undercurrent in Miss Carson's book. I should like to expand on that philosophic premise and examine some of its implications for planning vegetation...

The precipitation of aluminum, iron and manganese at the junction of Deer Creek with the Snake River in Summit County, Colorado
P. K. Theobald Jr., H. W. Lakin, D. B. Hawkins
1963, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (27) 121-132
The oxidation of disseminated pyrite in relatively acid schists and gneisses of the Snake River drainage basin provides abundant iron sulfate and sulfuric acid to ground and surface water. This acid water dissolves large quantities of many elements, particularly aluminum and surprisingly large quantities of elements, such as magnesium and...

Water resources investigations: A section in Thirty-third biennial report of the State Engineer to the governor of Utah: 1960-1962
U.S. Geological Survey
1962, Utah State Engineer Biennial Report 33
The Geological Survey is authorized by Congress to cooperate with the States and other local governmental units in water-resources investigations on a 50-50 financial basis. Principal cooperation for Utah is through the office of the Utah State Engineer. Other State offices, such as the State Road Commission, Water and Power...
Water production from oil wells of the Uinta Basin, Uintah and Duchesne Counties, Utah
Harry D. Goode, Richard D. Feltis
1962, Utah Geological and Mineralogical Survey Water-Resources Bulletin 1
Water production from individual oil wells in the Uinta Basin ranges from 0 to 2,920,000 barrels (about 380 acre-feet) per year. The total dissolved solids in the water ranges from 500 to 26,000 ppm (parts per million); thus some of the water is classified as fresh and can be used,...
An interim report on Sacramento River Chinook disease: A virus-like disease of Chinook salmon
T. J. Parisot, J. Pelnar
1962, Progressive Fish-Culturist (24) 51-55
An annually recurring disease among chinook salmмом (Oncorhynchus tahawytscha) FINGERLINGs at the National Fish Hatchery at Coleman, California, was reported by Ross, Pelnar, and Rucker (1960). They presented results of experimental investigation of the disease which established that the etiologic agent was filterable, highly virulent, and resistant to antibiotics and some of the...
Molar volumes and densities of minerals
Richard A. Robie, Philip M. Bethke

These tables present critically chosen "best values" for the density and molar volume of selected mineral compounds. No attempt was made to be all-inclusive; rather we have tried to present data for chemically and physically well-defined phases for which the molar volume and/or density was knovvn to the order of...
