1975, Report
Northwestern Kansas, an area of 8,050 square miles (21,000 square kilometres), is a flat to gently rolling plain that is dissected by the Smoky Hill and Republican Rivers. Loessial soils underlying the plain are ideal for cultivation.The climate is semiarid with the mean annual precipitation ranging from 16 to 21...
History of fish toxicants in the United States
K.B. Cumming
1975, Special Publication 4
Many bodies of water have been overrun with fish species that are undesirable for the well-being of endemic aquatic biota and are of little or no interest to anglers. This situation has resulted from the transplanting of fish, creation of new waters, increasing fishing pressure and changing water quality. Although...
Utilization of Skylab (EREP) system for appraising changes in continental migratory bird habitat
E.A. Work Jr., D.S. Gilmer
1975, Technical Report CR-147542
The author has identified the following significant results. Surface water statistics using data obtained by supporting aircraft were generated. Signature extraction and refinement preliminary to wetland and associated upland vegetation recognition were accomplished, using a selected portion of the aircraft data. Final classification mapping and...
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...
Thoracic collapse as affected by the retia thoracica in the dolphin
Clifford A. Hui
1975, Respiration Physiology (25) 63-70
The carcass of a subadult female Delphinus was placed in a hyperbaric chamber and subjected to two simulated dives each equivalent to 69.7 m. In one dive the thorax was in its natural state, and in the other 100 ml of water had been injected into each pleural cavity. Various morphometric...
Location of the non-tidal current null zone in northern San Francisco Bay
David H. Peterson, T. J. Conomos, W. W. Broenkow, Patrick C. Doherty
1975, Estuarine and Coastal Marine Science (3) 1-11
Variations in Sacramento-San Joaquin River discharge into northern San Francisco Bay causes shifts in location of the bottom density current null zone. At a river flow of 2000 m3/s this null zone is approximately 20 km from the seaward end of the estuary,...
Water analysis
M. J. Fishman, D. E. Erdmann
1975, Analytical Chemistry (47) 334-361
No abstract available....
Gut morphology of mallards in relation to diet quality
M. R. Miller
1975, Journal of Wildlife Management (39) 168-173
Digestive organ lengths, weights, and volumes in each of three groups of mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) were determined at the end of a 21-day period, during which one group was starter (control diet), another group was fed whole corn (low fiber content), and the third fed alfalfa pellets (high fiber content)...
Developing a state water plan: Ground-water conditions in Utah, spring of 1974
Jerry C. Stephens, L.J. Bjorklund, E.L. Bolke, R. W. Mower, L. R. Herbert, R.M. Cordova, R.G. Butler, G. W. Sandberg, C.T. Sumison
1974, Cooperative Investigations Report 13
This report is the eleventh in a series of annual reports that describe ground-water conditions in Utah. Reports in this series, prepared cooperatively by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Utah Division of Water Resources, provide data to enable interested parties such as legislators, administrators, and planners to keep abreast...
Time of travel and dye dosage for an irrigation canal system near Duchesne, Utah
D. B. Adams
1974, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (2) 489-493
Fracturing and subsidence of the land surface in the Milford area oil Utah have resulted from the decline of water levels due to pumping in unconsolidated deposits of Quaternary age. To the writers’ knowledge, these are the first such effects of ground-water withdrawal reported in Utah. The fracturing is in...
Ground water resources of the lower Bear River drainage basin, Box Elder County, Utah
L.J. Bjorklund, L. J. McGreevy
1974, Technical Publication 44
This report is intended to aid public officials and water users in the lower Bear River drainage basin to develop, conserve, and administer their water resources. Although the report is primarily about ground water, it describes the relation of ground water to surface water and presents a general water-budget analysis....
Water resources of the Milford area, Utah, with emphasis on ground water
R. W. Mower, R.M. Cordova
1974, Technical Publication 43
The investigation of the water resources of the Milford area was made as part of a cooperative program with the Utah Department of Natural Resources, Division of Water Rights, to investigate the water resources of the State. The primary purpose of this report is to provide basic hydrologic information needed...
Water resources of the Curlew Valley drainage basin, Utah and Idaho
Claud H. Baker Jr.
1974, Technical Publication 45
This report about the water resources of the Curlew Valley drain- age basin, Utah and Idaho, was prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Utah Department of Natural Resources, Division of Wildlife Resources. The primary purpose of the study on which this re- port is based was...

Evaluation of hydraulic characteristics of a deep artesian aquifer from natural water-level fluctuations, Miami, Florida
Frederick W. Meyer
1974, Florida Bureau of Geology Report of Investigations 75
Knowledge of tho hydraulic characteristics of aquifer systems is fundamental to defining the vertical and horizontal controls on fluid movement, information which is needed for assessing the environmental impact of subsurface waste storage. To meet this objective, natural water-level fluctuations in the 2,947-foot deep Peninsula Utilities disposal well near Miami,...
