Eocene and miocene rocks off the northeastern coast of the United States
T. G. Gibson
1965, Deep-Sea Research and Oceanographic Abstracts (12)
A grab sample from a depth of 1675 m at a point south of Cape Cod contains early Eocene planktonic Foraminifera and is correlated with the Globorotalia rex zone of Trinidad. The assemblage indicates a depth comparable to that existing today. Regional relations suggest that the Cretaceous and Eocene deposits deepen...
Servo-amplifiers for ion current measurement in mass spectrometry
J. S. Stacey, R.D. Russell, F. Kollar
1965, Journal of Scientific Instruments (42) 390-394
A servo-voltmeter can provide a useful alternative to the d.c. amplifier or vibrating reed electrometer for the accurate measurement of mass spectrometer ion currents, and has some advantages which recommend its use in certain applications. A generalized analysis based on servomechanism theory is presented as an aid for understanding the...

Quality of surface water in the Sevier Lake basin, Utah
D. C. Hahl, R.E. Cabell
1965, Utah Basic-Data Release 10
Few data are available on the quality of surface waters in the Sevier Lake basin. Because of the need for information not only on the chemical-quality but also on the other water-quality characteristics of the basin, the U.S. Geological Survey, as part of its cooperative program with the Utah State...

Results of woodcock wing collections, 1959 to 1962
F.W. Martin, A. D. Geis, William H. Stickel
1965, Journal of Wildlife Management (29) 121-131
During hunting seasons from 1959 to 1962, age and sex determined from 45,444 wings were used to measure annual productivity of woodcocks (Philohela minor). Age of birds was determined by pattern and color of secondaries and by wear on primaries. Sex was determined by width and length of primaries. Overall...

Control of alligatorweed in South Carolina with granular silvex
Frank B. McGilvrey, J.H. Steenis
1965, Weeds (13) 66-68
Silvex, [2-(2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy)propionic acid], impregnated (20% ae) on clay granules, applied at a rate as low as 20 lb/A ae gave excellent control of well-rooted alligatorweed [Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Grieb] growing in less than 18 inches of water. The 2-ethylhexyl ester of silvex was more effective than the potassium salt. Silvex...

A review of advances in the study of diseases of fish: 1954-1964
G. Post
1965, Progressive Fish-Culturist (27) 3-12
STUDY OF DISEASE IN ANIMALS, INCLUDING MAN, has progressed rapidly in the past decade. Looking back, we find amazing success in the study of man's diseases and possibly only a little less success in studies of diseases of domesticated homeothermic animals. We who are interested in the poikilothermic animals may feel...
Geochemistry of Birch Creek, Inyo County, California a travertine depositing creek in an arid climate
I. Barnes
1965, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (29) 85-112
A small stream in eastern California was studied in detail to determine the causes of travertine deposition from the stream. Although the ground water feeding the stream is slightly supersaturated to just saturated with calcite, the ground water is supersaturated with CO2 with respect...
Vacuum-jacketed hydrofluoric acid solution calorimeter
R. A. Robie
1965, Review of Scientific Instruments (36) 484-486
A vacuum‐jacketed metal calorimeter for determining heats of solution in aqueous HF was constructed. The reaction vessel was made of copper and was heavily gold plated. The calorimeter has a cooling constant of 0.6 cal‐deg−1‐min−1, approximately ¼ that of the air‐jacketed calorimeters most commonly used with HF. It reaches equilibrium within 10 min after turning off the heater current. Measurements...
Natural recharge and localization of fresh ground water in Kuwait
R.E. Bergstrom, R.E. Aten
1965, Journal of Hydrology (2) 213-231
Fresh ground water (200 parts per million total dissolved solids and upwards) occurs in portions of Pleistocene sandstone aquifers beneath basins and wadis in north Kuwait where the mean rainfall is about five inches per year. The fresh water is surrounded and underlain by brackish water (> 4000 ppm TDS)....
Characteristics and identification of oxidative Pseudomonads isolated from diseased fish
G. L. Bullock, S. F. Snieszko, C. E. Dunbar
1965, Journal of General Microbiology (38) 1-7
Several characteristics of 20 strains of oxidative pseudomonads, all but one of which were isolated from freshwater fish, were determined. All strains oxidized glucose and gluconate, produced NH3 from 1 % peptone, grew at 6, 12, 20 and 30° and produced cytochrome oxidase. Lipase was produced by 17 of the...
The water story in Central Iowa
F. R. Twenter, R. W. Coble

"The general welfare of the people of the state of Iowa requires that the water resources of the state be put to beneficial use to the fullest extent of which they are capable." This can be achieved only by a knowledge and understanding of the water resources - their use,...
Distribution of fishes in U. S. streams tributary to Lake Superior
Harry H. Moore, Robert A. Braem
1965, Special Scientific Report - Fisheries 516
Experimental sea lamprey control by the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries on Lake Superior streams provided many new distributional records of the fish fauna. Seventy-one species were recorded from 175 streams. Specimens were collected at the electromechanical barriers, with electric shockers, with fyke nets, and during chemical treatment of streams. Maps...
Some diseases and parasites of captive woodcocks
L. N. Locke, William H. Stickel, S.A. Geis
1965, Journal of Wildlife Management (29) 156-161
Observations were made concerning the diseases and parasites of a group of woodcocks (Philohela minor) caught in Massachusetts in the summer of 1960 and kept in captivity in Maryland, and of another group caught and kept in Louisiana in the winter of 1960-61. Bumblefoot, a granulomatous swelling of the foot...

Ground-water pumpage and water-level changes in the Milwaukee-Waukesha area, Wisconsin, 1950-61
J. H. Green, R. D. Hutchinson
1965, Water Supply Paper 1809-I
Artesian water pressure in the deep sandstone aquifer continued to decline throughout most of the Milwaukee-Waukesha area, Wisconsin between 1950 and 1961. Areas of greatest water-level decline were in northeast Waukesha County and in northwest Milwaukee County. The chief cause of the decline was continued heavy pumpage. The major aquifers...

William R. Dryer, Leo F. Erkkila, Clifford L. Tetzloff
1965, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (94) 169-176
Stomachs were examined from 1,492 lake trout and 83 siscowets collected from Lake Superior. Data are given on the food of lake trout of legal size (17 inches or longer) by year, season, and depth of water, and on the relation between food and size among smaller lake trout. Fish...
Movements of hatchery-reared lake trout in Lake Superior
Richard L. Pycha, William R. Dryer, George R. King
1965, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (22) 999-1024
The history of stocking of lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) in the Great Lakes is reviewed. The study of movements is based on capture of 24,275 fin-clipped lake trout taken in experimental gill nets and trawls and commercial gill nets. Yearling lake trout planted from shore dispersed to 15-fath (27-m) depths...
