Distribution of uranium in the Florida phosphate field
James B. Cathcart
1949, Trace Elements Investigations 85
Land-pebble phosphate, hard-rock phosphate, and river-pebble phosphate are the three types of phosphatic rock found in Florida. This report is concerned primarily with the land-pebble deposits, the only type which contains a significant amount of uranium. The most productive part of the land-pebble district is in Polk and Hillsborough Counties, in...
Progress on detection of radioactivity by airborne equipment
Frank W. Stead
1949, Trace Elements Investigations 83
Coincidence and anti-coincidence counting rate meters and also an air conductivity meter have been installed in a transport plane to measure gamma radiation from ground sources. Materials containing 0.01 percent uranium can be detected at 500 feet and at an airspeed of 150 miles per hour....
The Carbon Creek and Awuna anticlines
William A. Fischer
1949, Geological Investigations, Naval Petroleum Reserve No. 4, Alaska 10
At the interim meting of the Technical Committee in Fairbanks, Alaska, in September 1949, the Navy Oil Unit was requested to make photo-geologic analysis of the Driftwood, Awuna, and Carbon Creek anticlines before the November meeting. A report on the photogeology of the Driftwood anticline, based on available air photos,...
Fourth special report of the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory of the U.S. Geological Survey and the Hawaiian Volcano Research Association: Steam blast volcanic eruptions: A study of Mount Pelée in Martinique as type volcano
T. A. Jaggar
1949, Report
The investigation is concerned with the author's expedition to Martinique and St. Vincent in 1902 and comparison of the experience of investigators and sufferers with that of others in so-called "explosive" eruptions. The Hawaiian mechanism is reviewed with special reference to rifts, underground water, intrusion furnace, wedge rupture, and lowering...
Determination of color of turbid waters
W.L. Lamar
1949, Analytical Chemistry (21) 726-727
A convenient procedure for determining the color of turbid waters, using the principle of precipitation of turbidity by the electrolyte calcium chloride, is described. Because the stable turbidity of many surface waters cannot be completely precipitated by conventional centrifuging alone, this procedure presents a means of flocculating the turbidity without...
Progress report on the sea lamprey study
John Van Oosten
1949, The Fisherman (17) 6, 9-10
SUMMARY: The Peromyscus leucopus on a 17-acre study area were live-trapped, marked, and released over a seven-day period. On the three following nights intensive snap-trapping was done on the central acre of the study plot. The animals caught by snap traps in...
The present status of the United States commercial fisheries of the Great Lakes
John Van Oosten
1949, Transactions of the North American Wildlife Conference (14) 319-330
This review of the trends in production on the Great Lakes suggests that great biological changes have taken place. The general abundance of the choicer varieties, and of some of the less choice fishes, has been lowered considerably; and the prospects are that this level will fall still farther....
