Thoron-meso-tartaric acid system for determination of thorium
Mary H. Fletcher, F. S. Grimaldi, Lillie B. Jenkins
1957, Analytical Chemistry (29) 963-967
In the spectrophotometric determination of thorium with thoron, meso-tartaric acid is used as a masking reagent for zirconium. The effects of different experimental variables such as the concentrations of the reagents, time, and temperature, and the behavior of 35 ions which might be present in thorium ores are discussed. A...
Structure and growth of scales of yellow perch of Green Bay
Leonard S. Joeris
1957, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (86) 169-194
The appearance of the scales of yellow perch differs with the location on the fish's body. Comparison of scales of Green Bay perch taken above and below the lateral line reveals the former to have more sharply defined circuli and to exhibit fewer false annuli and less of the shading...
The control of the upstream movement of fish with pulsated direct current
Alberton L. McLain
1957, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (86) 269-284
Alternating-current electromechanical devices installed in the mouths of streams have proved effective in stopping the spawning migrations of the parasitic sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) which has seriously damaged Great Lakes fisheries. In a few streams, excessive mortality has occurred to other fish at the alternating-current barriers. A direct-current unit was...
Limnological surveys of the Great Lakes--early and recent
Stanford H. Smith
1957, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (86) 409-418
Early explorations on the Great Lakes were concerned largely with things easily collected or observed—common organisms, water levels, surface temperatures … Even when more scientific studies were undertaken, they were at first scattered and small-scale. Effective surveys became possible only through inter-agency cooperation which permits a pooling of facilities, staff,...
Determination of uranium in natural waters
L. L. Thatcher, F. B. Barker
1957, Analytical Chemistry (29) 1575-1578
The fluorophotometric determination of uranium was studied to develop a procedure applicable to the routine analysis of waters. Three grams of the high carbonate flux are used in a dilution procedure with spiking. Because of the comparatively high reflectivity of this large disk and the low uranium concentration, a correction...
Water problems in the present trend towards greater aridity
Luna Bergere Leopold
Harmon Craig, editor(s)
1957, Conference Paper, Proceedings: Conference on recent research in climatology
In the past few days we have heard a number of scientists, gathered here at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, discuss research work which, in one manner or another, bears on problems related to water resources. They have been discussing, particularly, problems in the field of climatology, and have speculated on...
A fluorimetric study of the thorium-morin system
R.G. Milkey, M. H. Fletcher
1957, Journal of the American Chemical Society (79) 5425-5435
Thorium reacts with morin to yield a yellow complex that fluoresces when irradiated with ultraviolet light. The effect on the fluorescence of such variables as concentration of acid, alcohol, thorium, morin, and complex; time, temperature and wave length of exciting light are studied to determine experimental conditions yielding maximum fluorescence....
Volumetric determination of uranium: Titanous sulfate as reductant before oxidimetric titration
J.S. Wahlberg, D. L. Skinner, L. F. Rader Jr.
1957, Analytical Chemistry (29) 954-957
Need for a more rapid volumetric method for the routine determination of uranium in uranium-rich materials has led to the development of a method that uses titanous sulfate as a reductant before oxidimetric titration. Separation of the hydrogen sulfide group is not necessary. Interfering elements precipitated by cupferron are removed...
On the postglacial history of the Devils Lake Region, North Dakota
Saul Aronow
1957, The Journal of Geology (65) 410-427
Devils and Stump lakes in eastern North Dakota have been diminishing in area more or less continuously since the land around them was settled in the 1880's. Desiccations similar to the current one have occurred at least once and possibly two or more times in the past and are indicated...
Ringworm in a population of snowshoe hares
Lowell W. Adams, S. B. Salvin, W. J. Hadlow
1956, Journal of Mammalogy (37) 94-99
The occurrence of ringworm, or dermatomycosis, in wild animals has been rarely reported. DeLamater (1939) described infections of Trichophyton mentagrophytes in common gray squirrels on and near the Johns Hopkins University campus at Baltimore. Errington (1942) and Charles (1946) reported on the occurrence of T. mentagrophytes in 35 of 364 litters (9.6%) of muskrats...
Lignasan for bacterial gill disease
Robert R. Rucker, B. J. Earp, Roger E. Burrows
1956, Progressive Fish-Culturist (18) 75-77
Bacterial gill disease plagues salmon and trout in many hatcheries: some infections are sporadic, but others are continual. An inexpensive, easily applied, stable, safe chemical would be highly advantageous for treatment. The use of Roccal as a 1-hour treatment for bacterial gill disease (Fish 1947) was developed at the...
Long-term trends of ground-water levels in the United States
V.C. Fishel
1956, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (37) 429-435
Ground-water levels at the end of 1954 were at or near record-low stages throughout most of the southern two-thirds of the United States. These low stages, like those of the early 1930's, have led to frequent expression of the opinion that the water table throughout the country is continuously falling...
Tissue damage in salmonids caused by Halisidota argentata Packard
E. M. Wood, W. T. Yasutake
1956, Journal of Parasitology (42) 544-546
During the histological examination of a collection of wild and hatchery salmonids, a peculiar foreign body was occasionally observed in various organs, particularly in the viscera. These objects, usually accompanied by a focal inflammation, were observed in 10 of 75 samples of wild trout and salmon collected in Oregon and...
Ground water in Wisconsin
William James Drescher
1956, Wisconsin Geological & Natural History Survey Information Circular 3
The purpose of this report is to describe in general the occurrence, source, movement, and use of ground water in Wisconsin in order that present problems of ground-water development may be understood and to point out the need for study and evaluation of the potential ground water available. Areas with...
