The white-crowned pigeon: A fruit-eating pigeon as a host for Trichomonas gallinae
R. M. Kocan, A. Sprunt IV
1971, Journal of Wildlife Diseases (7) 217-218
Trichomoniasis resulting from infection by Trichomonas gallinae was observed in 12 laboratory reared white-crowned pigeons (Columba leucocephala). A field survey of nestlings in the Florida Keys revealed a prevalence of 88% T. gallinae carriers but no evidence of trichomoniasis could be found among the wild birds....

A basket for washing benthological samples
James H. Selgeby
1971, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (100) 590-591
Since benthological samples collected with dredges are usually too large to be preserved in toto, a washing method must be employed to reduce the sample volume without losing or damaging the organisms. Traditionally, the sample is washed in a sieve until the volume is small enough for convenient handling...
Ship canals and aquatic ecosystems
William I. Aron, Stanford H. Smith
1971, Science (174) 13-20
Through a combination of ecosystem homeostasis and the perversity of man and nature, oftentimes the significant biological changes effected by environmental modifications are not detected until long after the initial change has taken place. The immediate impact, which may range from the spectacular to the undetectable, is a deceptive measure...
Fluid inclusions in quartz crystals from South-West Africa
K.A. Kvenvolden, E. Roedder
1971, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (35) 1209-1229
Quartz crystals from calcite veins of unknown age in Precambrian metasedimentary rocks at Geiaus No. 6 and Aukam farms in South-West Africa contain both primary and secondary inclusions filled with one or a variable combination of: organic liquid, moderately saline aqueous liquid, dark-colored...

A Pliocene flora and insect fauna from the Bering Strait region
D.M. Hopkins, J.V. Matthews, J. A. Wolfe, M.L. Silberman
1971, Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology (9) 211-231
A flood-plain forest has been preserved beneath a lava flow that invaded the Inmachuk River Valley in the northern part of the Seward Peninsula, Alaska, during the Pliocene Epoch. The fossil flora is of great biogeographic interest because of its position (Fig. 1)...
Determination of silver in soils, sediments, and rocks by organic-chelate extraction and atomic absorption spectrophotometry
T. T. Chao, J.W. Ball, H. M. Nakagawa
1971, Analytica Chimica Acta (54) 77-81
A useful method for the determination of silver in soil, sediment, and rock samples in geochemical exploration has been developed. The sample is digested with concentrated nitric acid, and the silver extracted with triisooctyl thiophosphate (TOTP) in methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) after dilution of the...
Paleomagnetism of San Cristobal Island, Galapagos
A. Cox
1971, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (11) 152-160
Isla San Cristobal, the most easterly of the Galapagos Islands, consists of two parts: a large volcano constitutes the southwest half of the island and an irregular apron of small cones and flows makes up the northeast half. As some of the...
C13 and O18 compositions in some fresh-water carbonates associated with ultramafic rocks and serpentinites: Western United States
J. R. O’Neil, I. Barnes
1971, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (35) 687-697
All carbonates associated with the ultramafic rocks and serpentinites of the western United States are shown by their stable isotope ratios to be of near-surface, low-temperature origin. These include vein materials that have been previously classified as hydrothermal. New laboratory and natural data...
Analytical sensitivities and energies of thermal neutron capture gamma rays II

1971, Nuclear Instruments and Methods (93) 425-459
A table of the analytical sensitivities of the principal lines in the thermal neutron capture gamma-ray spectrum from 0 to 3 MeV has been compiled for most of the elements. A tabulation of the full-energy, single-escape, and double-escape peaks has also been made...
Hydrology of Pine Creek, Wisconsin
Warren A. Gebert
1971, Report
The purpose of this study was to determine the hydrologic characteristics of Pine Creek, Price County, Wisconsin, in order to evaluate a proposed reservoir on Pine Creek. The streamflow characteristics estimated are the mean flows, low flows, and flood peaks. The study was done by the U.S. Geological Survey in...
A decade of international cooperation brings a standard seismic point of view
H. S Whitcomb Jr.
1971, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (3) 16-19
Whether in a castle in Italy, a police station in Iceland, o an abandoned gold mine in Australia, the sensitive instruments in the Worldwide Seismograph Network send a steady flow of standard earthquake records to the geophysical scientific community. They provide the raw data that make possible very precise earthquake...

Geysers
1971, Report
A geyser is a special type of hot spring that from time to time spurts water above ground. It differs from most hot springs in having periodic eruptions separated by intervals without flow of water. The temperature of the erupting water is generally nearly at boiling for pure water (212°F...
Effects of temperature on electrolyte balance and osmoregulation of the alewife (Alosa pseudoharengus) in fresh and sea water
Jon G. Stanley, Peter J. Colby
1971, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (100) 624-638
A study of the effects of temperature and salinity on ionoregulation in the alewife, Alosa pseudoharengus, revealed that concentrations of sodium, potassium, and calcium in plasma and muscle were similar in fish adapted to fresh water and those adapted to sea water. The non-stressed alewife is apparently an excellent...
Inland fisheries
Louella E. Cable
Sidney Shapiro, editor(s)
1971, Book chapter, Our changing fisheries
Today's inland commercial fisheries are small independent operational units widely dispersed on lakes, impoundments, and streams throughout the vast central plains. The problems of the fisheries are diverse and unique to local conditions. Inland fisheries are particularly important to the Nation in times of international conflict because they...

Some blood chemistry values for the juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch)
Gary Wedemeyer, K. Chatterton
1971, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada 606-608
Overlapping Gaussian distribution curves were resolved into normal ranges for 1800 clinical test values obtained from caudal arterial blood or plasma of more than 1000 juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) held under defined conditions of diet and temperature. Estimated normal blood chemistry ranges were bicarbonate, 9.5–12.6 mEq/liter; blood urea nitrogen (BUN),...
