Age and growth of the lake whitefish, Coregonus clupeaformis (Mitchill), in Lake Erie
John Van Oosten, Ralph Hile
1949, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (77) 178-249
Although the whitefish has by no means ranked first from the standpoint of production, it has always been an important commercial species in Lake Erie. Trends in the output of whitefish have differed in the United States and Canadian waters of the lake. The 1893–1946 average annual yield of 1,201,000...
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...
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...
Index of surface-water records, part 3, Ohio River basin, to September 30, 1948
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1948, Circular 39
This report summarizes ground-water-quality data, for Wisconsin, stored in the U.S. Geological Survey 's computer system (WATSTORE). The summary includes water-quality data for 2,443 wells which tap one of the State 's three major aquifers (sand and gravel, Silurian dolomite, and sandstone). Data for dissolved solids, hardness, alkalinity, calcium, magnesium,...
Public water supplies in eastern Texas
Raymond W. Sundstrom, W.W. Hastings, W. L. Broadhurst
1948, Water Supply Paper 1047
This report gives a summarized description of the public water supplies in 77 counties of eastern Texas, extending from the Louisiana boundary to a northsouth line approximately along the ninety-seventh meridian. It gives the available data as follows for each of 323 communities: The population of the community; the name...
Ground water in the Beggs area, Okmulgee County, Oklahoma
Stuart L. Schoff
1948, Open-File Report 48-82
This memorandum discusses the geology of the Beggs area in Okmulgee County, Oklahoma, as it is related to the availability of ground water. Geological reports and unpublished data from the files of the Oklahoma Geological Survey, together with local information furnished by R.W. Steinman, Beggs Water Superintendent, are the basis...
Ground water hydraulics as a geophysical aid
John G. Ferris
1948, Technical Report 1
The publication of the non-equilibrium formula in 1935 in a paper by Theis marked the opening of a new era in the analysis and understanding of the hydraulics of percolating ground waters. Through the past decade 9 an ever-increasing number of engineers and geologists have become familiar-with the application of...
Preliminary notes on distribution of uranium in the Florida pebble phosphate field and suggestions for studying and sampling
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1948, Trace Elements Memorandum 73
The accompanying map and sections show examples of the present state of information about the occurrence of the "Leached" uranium-bearing bed in the Florida pebble phosphate district. The dashed lines on the map define, as closely as present data permit, the limit of the area in which this bed...
Discharge and sediment loads in the Boise River drainage basin, Idaho 1939-40
S. K. Love, Paul Charles Benedict
1948, Water Supply Paper 1048
The Boise River project is a highly developed agricultural area comprising some 520 square miles of valley and bench lands in southwestern Idaho. Water for irrigation is obtained from the Boise River and its tributaries which are regulated by storage in Arrow Rock and Deer Flat reservoirs. Distribution of water...
Methods used in estimating the groundwater supply in the Wichita, Kansas well-field area
Charles C. Williams, Stanley William Lohman
1947, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (28) 120-131
This paper presents the methods used in studying the groundwater hydrology of an area in Harvey and Sedgwick Counties, Kansas, from which the city of Wichita derives its water supply. A summary of the data available for study is presented and several hydrologic factors are evaluated. The relationship between...
Electrochemical stabilization as a means of preventing ground failure in railroads
D.I. Solntzev, V.S. Sorkov, V.P. Sokoloff (translator)
1947, Open-File Report 47-27-B
Laboratory and field data on electrochemical stabilization of clays, by three Russian authors, are here presented in translation. Abstracts of the Russian papers were published in May 1947 issue of the Engineering News Record (pp. 100-101). There exists also a small body of literature, in German and English, dealing with...
Major winter and nonwinter floods in selected basins in New York and Pennsylvania
Walter Basil Langbein
1947, Water Supply Paper 915
The scientific design of flood-control works is based on an evaluation of the hydrologic factors basic to flood events, particularly how rainfall and snow runoff, soil conditions, and channel influences can combine to produce greater or lesser floods. For this purpose an analysis of the pertinent hydrologic data is needed....
Preliminary report on stratigraphy and structure of the Wolf Creek anticline, Alaska
Karl Stefansson, R. F. Thurrell Jr., J. H. Zumberge
1947, Geological Investigations, Naval Petroleum Reserve No. 4, Alaska 14
In 1946 U. S. Geological Survey Party 2 was assigned the task of carrying out detailed structural and stratigraphic investigations in the area of Maybe Creek*. Field studies indicated the presence of a large anticlinal structure whose axis lies just south of Wolf Creek. Later structural data compiled from aerial...
Preliminary report on stratigraphy and structure of the area of Kigalik and Awuna Rivers, Alaska
C. L. Whittington, M. L. Troyer
1947, Geological Investigations, Naval Petroleum Reserve No. 4, Alaska 11
During the summer of. 1947, U. S. Geological Survey Party No. 2 made a reconnaissance survey of the area between Awuna River and the divide north of the Kigalik River. The westernmost observations were made along the Awuna anticline to longitude about 157°30' W. and along the Kigalik anticline to...

Delineation of parallel folds and measurement of stratigraphic dimensions
J.B. Mertie Jr.
1947, Geological Society of America Bulletin (58) 779-802
The delineation of parallel folds in structural sections, and the extraction therefrom of stratigraphic information, has generally been done with considerable personal interpretation. If profiles must be drawn, or sections measured, from structural observations used in pairs, this is unavoidable; but superior results may be obtained if more than two...
