The reclamation of Indian and Abrams creeks in Great Smoky Mountains National Park
Robert E. Lennon, Phillip S. Parker
1959, Special Scientific Report - Fisheries 306
A complete program of stream reclamation was developed and applied on Indian and Abrams creeks in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. A salt-resistivity technique was used to estimate the dilution and velocity of a toxicant in running water. Streamside toxicity trials on resident fishes established minimal, effective concentrations of the...
Paper coal in Indiana
G.K. Guennel, R.C. Neavel
1959, Science (129) 1671-1672
The foliated, papery texture of the upper third of an 18-inch coal seam in a strip mine near Rockville, Indiana, is attributable to matted plant cuticle. The cuticles of pinnules, pinnae, and rachides resemble Sphenopteris bradfordii Arnold and thus differ from the lycopsid stem cuticles of the Russian paper coal....
Magnetic susceptibility of tektites and some other glasses
F. E. Senftle, A. Thorpe
1959, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (17) 234-237
The magnetic susceptibility at several magnetic field strengths of about thirty tektites from various localities have been measured. The susceptibility ranges from 2 × 10−6 to about 7.9 × 10−6 e.m.u./g. Tektites from a given locality have similar susceptibilities. The intensity of magnetization of all the tektites measured is zero or very...
Climatology and the problems of western grasslands
Luna Bergere Leopold
Howard B. Sprague, editor(s)
1959, Conference Paper, Grasslands: A symposium presented at the New York meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science
Sixty years after Coronado, Don Juan de Onate wrote the first reasonably good description of the High Plains. He was near the present site of Wichita, Kansas, in 1601, when he arrived a t a large rancheria, or temporary Indian camp, containing more than 5000 souls. Onate's account expressed wonderment...
Core logs from Searles Lake, San Bernardino County, California
David V. Haines
1959, Bulletin 1045-E
Forty-one drill holes in the saline deposit on Searles Lake, San Bernardino County, Calif., were cored and logged. Drill holes averaged about 100 feet in depth; the majority are located around the margins of the dry lake. The saline deposit consists of an upper salt body about 39 square miles...
α-Radioactivity of cerium-142
F. E. Senftle, T. W. Stern, V. P. Alekna
1959, Nature (184) 630
JOHNSON AND NIER1 have measured the atomic masses of some of the rare-earth isotopes and have shown that the mass difference cerium-142—(barium-138 + helium-4) is equivalent to 1.68 ± 0.10 MeV. Similar results for the naturally occurring samarium and neodymium isotopes show that the α-active isotope of each element is the one...
New occurrences of ferroselite (FeSe2)
R. G. Coleman
1959, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (16) 296-301
Iron selenide from the uranium-vanadium ores of the Colorado Plateau was under investigation when ferroselite was described as a new mineral in Russia by Bur'yanova and Komkov (1955). Association of ferroselite with selenian pyrite and marcasite within discrete areas of these uranium-vanadium deposits suggests an unusual environment of formation. Its association...
Semimicrodetermination of combined tantalum and niobium with selenous acid
F. S. Grimaldi, M. Schnepfe
1959, Analytical Chemistry (31) 1270-1272
Tantalum and niobium are separated and determined gravimetrically by precipitation with selenous acid from highly acidic solutions in the absence of complexing agents. Hydrogen peroxide is used in the preparation of the solution and later catalytically destroyed during digestion of the precipitate. From 0.2 to 30 mg., separately or in...
Ground-water resources of Riverton irrigation project area, Wyoming, with a section on chemical quality of ground water
Donald Arthur Morris, O. M. Hackett, K.E. Vanlier, E. A. Moulder, W. H. Durum
1959, Water Supply Paper 1375
The Riverton irrigation project area is in the northwestern part of the Wind River basin in west-central Wyoming. Because the annual precipitation is only about 9 inches, agriculture, which is the principal occupation in the area, is dependent upon irrigation. Irrigation by surface-water diversion was begum is 1906; water is...
Determination of uranium in zircon
F. Cuttitta, G. J. Daniels
1959, Analytica Chimica Acta (20) 430-434
A routine fluorimetric procedure is described for the determination of trace amounts of uranium in zircon. It employs the direct extraction of uranyl nitrate with ethyl acetate using phosphate as a retainer for zirconium. Submicrogram amounts or uranium are separated in the presence of 100,000 times the amount of zirconium....
