The determination of specific forms of aluminum in natural water
R.B. Barnes
1975, Chemical Geology (15) 177-191
A procedure for analysis and pretreatment of natural-water samples to determine very low concentrations of Al is described which distinguishes the rapidly reacting equilibrium species from the metastable or slowly reacting macro ions and colloidal suspended material. Aluminum is complexed with 8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine), pH is adjusted to 8.3 to...
Hydrologic data for Little Elm Creek, Trinity River Basin, Texas, 1973
R.M. Slade Jr., J.M. Taylor
1975, Report
The U.S. Soil Conservation Service is actively engaged in the implementation of flood- and soil-erosion reducing measures in Texas under the authority of "The Flood Control Act of 1936 and 1944" and "Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act" (Public Law 566), as amended. The Soil Conservation Service has found that...
Effects of agricultural burning on nesting waterfowl
E.K. Fritzell
1975, Canadian Field-Naturalist (89) 21-27
Agricultural burning in an intensively farmed region within Manitoba's pothole district is shown to affect the nesting activities of ground-nesting ducks. All species, except Blue-winged Teal (Anas discors), preferred unburned nest cover, although success was higher in burned areas, where predators may have exerted less influence. Attitudes of farmers, burning...
Some nutritional aspects of reproduction in prairie nesting pintails
Gary L. Krapu, G.A. Swanson
1975, Journal of Wildlife Management (39) 156-162
The nutritional significance of invertebrate foods in the diet of breeding hen waterfowl during the period of egg formation is discussed. Proximate, elemental, and amino acid analyses of the principal foods consumed by hen pintails (Anas acut) during the nesting season indicate the animal foods selected are rich sources of...
Duck plague in free-flying waterfowl observed during the Lake Andes epizootic
S.J. Proctor, G.L. Pearson, Louis Leibovitz
1975, Wildlife Disease Conference (67) 1-16
The first major epizootic of duck plague in free-flying waterfowl occurred at Lake Andes, South Dakota, in January and February, 1973. Duck plague was diagnosed in black ducks, mallards, pintail-mallard hybrids, redheads, common mergansers, common golden eyes, canvasbacks, American widgeon, wood ducks, and Canada geese, indicating the general susceptibility of...
Leech (Hirudinea) infestations among waterfowl near Yellowknife, Northwest Territories
James C. Bartonek, David L. Trauger
1975, Canadian Field-Naturalist (89) 234-243
Fourteen species of aquatic birds, including 11 species of ducks, were infested with leeches Theromyzon rude and Placobdella ornata near Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. Leeches infested 88% of 41 American Wigeon (Anas americana) and 31% of 86 Lesser Scaup (Aythya affinis) examined after death. Lesser Scaup captured by drive-trapping contained significantly...
New dimensions in diseases affecting waterfowl
Milton Friend
1975, Conference Paper, Proceedings of the first international waterfowl symposium
We start off with light heart, but as we near the marsh, we stop abruptly in shock and horror. The shoreline, where only last evening we saw thousands of sleek, apparently healthy birds, is now littered with their bodies. Most of them are ducks, but here and there we see...
Inhibition of salt water survival and Na-K-ATPase elevation in steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri) by moderate water temperatures
B.L. Adams, W.S. Zaugg, L. R. McLain
1975, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (104) 766-769
The steelhead trout metamorphosis from a freshwater parr to a sea water-tolerant smolt possessing the migration tendency was evaluated at six different growth temperatures ranging from 6 to 15 C during January through July. The highest temperature where a transformation was indicated was 11.3 C. By April fish reared at...
Hydrologic data of the coastal drainage basins of southeastern Massachusetts, Weir River, Hingham, to Jonas River, Kingston
John R. Williams, Richard E. Willey, Gary D. Tasker
1975, Massachusetts Hydrologic - Data Report 16
The principal basins are those of Weir River, James Brook, Bound Brook, North River, South River, and Jones River, all draining to Massachusetts Bay and Cape Cod Bay. These basins are bounded on the north by the Weymouth River basins, on the west by the Taunton River basin, and on...
Uranium determination in natural water by the fissiontrack technique
G.M. Reimer
1975, Journal of Geochemical Exploration (4) 425-431
The fission track technique, utilizing the neutron-induced fission of uranium-235, provides a versatile analytical method for the routine analysis of uranium in liquid samples of natural water. A detector is immersed in the sample and both are irradiated. The fission track density observed...
Phallodrilus hallae, a new tubificid oligochaete from the St. Lawrence Great Lakes
David G. Cook, Jarl K. Hiltunen
1975, Canadian Journal of Zoology (53) 934-941
The predominantly marine tubificid genus Phallodrilus is defined, a key to its nine species constructed, and an illustrated description of Phallodrilus hallae n. sp. from the St. Lawrence Great Lakes presented. The species is distinguished from other members of the genus by its well-developed atrial musculature, extensions of which ensheath the posterior prostatic ducts.Phallodrilus...
Predation by fish on walleye eggs on a spawning reef in western Lake Erie, 1969-71
David R. Wolfert, Wolf-Dieter N. Busch, Carl T. Baker
1975, Ohio Journal of Science (75) 118-125
Nearly 2,000 fish representing 21 species were captured with experimental gillnets on Kelleys Island Shoal during the spawning and incubation periods of walleyes (Stizostedion v. vitreum) in 1969-71. A total of 794 stomachs were examined. Four species contained walleye eggs: yellow perch (Perca flavescens), spottail shiner (Notropis hudsonius), stonecat (Noturus...
