SEGY to ASCII Conversion and Plotting Program 2.0
Mark R. Goldman
2005, Open-File Report 2005-1311
INTRODUCTION SEGY has long been a standard format for storing seismic data and header information. Almost every seismic processing package can read and write seismic data in SEGY format. In the data processing world, however, ASCII format is the 'universal' standard format. Very few general-purpose plotting or computation programs will accept...

Sedimentology and sequence stratigraphy of the Cretaceous Nanushuk, Seabee, and Tuluvak formations exposed on Umiat Mountain, north-central Alaska
David W. Houseknecht, Christopher J. Schenk
2005, Professional Paper 1709-B
Upper Cretaceous strata of the upper part of the Nanushuk Formation, the Seabee Formation, and the lower part of the Tuluvak Formation are exposed along the Colville River on the east flank of Umiat Mountain in north-central Alaska. The Ninuluk sandstone, which is the uppermost unit of the Nanushuk Formation,...
Micromorphologic evidence for paleosol development in the Endicott group, Siksikpuk formation, Kingak(?) shale, and Ipewik formation, western Brooks range, Alaska
Julie A. Dumoulin, Tim White
2005, Professional Paper 1709-E
Micromorphologic evidence indicates the presence of paleosols in drill-core samples from four sedimentary units in the Red Dog area, western Brooks Range. Well-developed sepic-plasmic fabrics and siderite spherules occur in claystones of the Upper Devonian through Lower Mississippian(?) Kanayut Conglomerate (Endicott Group), the Pennsylvanian through Permian Siksikpuk Formation (Etivluk Group), the...

Thermobarometric constraints on mid-Cretaceous to late Cretaceous metamorphic events in the western metamorphic belt of the Coast Mountains complex near Petersburg, southeastern Alaska
Glen R. Himmelberg, David A. Brew
2005, Professional Paper 1709-C
The western metamorphic belt is part of the Coast Mountains Complex of southeastern Alaska and western Canada. This complex formed as a result of mid-Cretaceous through middle Eocene crustal shortening between the previously amalgamated Wrangellia and Alexander terranes (Insular superterrane) and previously accreted terranes of the North American continental margin...

Handbook of capture-recapture analysis
Steven C. Amstrup, Trent L. McDonald, Bryan F.J. Manly, editor(s)
2005, Book
Every day, biologists in parkas, raincoats, and rubber boots go into the field to capture and mark a variety of animal species. Back in the office, statisticians create analytical models for the field biologists' data. But many times, representatives of the two professions do not fully understand one another's roles....
Leachability of protein and metals incorporated into aquatic invertebrates: are species and metals-exposure history important?
J.S. Meyer, M.J. Suedkamp, J.M. Morris, A.M. Farag
2005, Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology (50) 79-87
To partially simulate conditions in fish intestinal tracts, we leached six groups of metals-contaminated invertebrates at pH 2 and pH 7, and analyzed the concentrations of four metals (Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn) and total protein in the leachates. Four of the groups of invertebrates were benthic macroinvertebrates collected from...
Upper Auglaize watershed AGNPS modeling project

2005, Report
The Upper Auglaize Watershed agricultural non-point source modeling project was an interagency effort to use a Geographic Information System (GIS)-based modeling approach for assessing and reducing pollution from agricultural runoff and other non-point sources. This project applied the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Agricultural Research Service’s AGricultural Non-Point Source (AGNPS) suite of models...
Assessing acid deposition: Advances in the state of science

NAPAP has a long history of conducting research related to acid deposition. Throughout the 1980s NAPAP supported a large number of research projects that confirmed the link between SO2 and NOx emissions and acidic lakes and streams hundreds of miles away. Recent research is confirming the tight link between emissions of SO2 and the amount of...
Results of the acid rain program: Status and trends of emissions and environmental impacts (1990–2002)

2005, Book chapter, National Acid Precipitation Assessment Program (NAPAP) Report to Congress: An Integrated Assessment, National Council National Science and Technology Council-Committee on Environment and Natural Resources NSTC-CENR
Both SO2 and NOx emissions from power generation sources have significantly declined under Title IV. In 2002, SO2 emissions from Title IV-affected sources totaled 10.2 million tons and NOx emissions from all Title IV-affected sources totaled 4.5 million tons, down 35% and 33% respectively from 1990 levels. Sources in states with the highest emissions continue...

Coastal forests of the Gulf of Mexico: A description and some thoughts on their conservation
Wylie C. Barrow Jr., Lori Johnson-Randall, M.S. Woodrey, J. Cox, E. Ruelas I., C. M. Riley, R.B. Hamilton, C. Eberly
2005, Book chapter, USDA Forest Service General Technical Report PSW-GTR-191
Millions of Nearctic-Neotropical landbirds move through the coastal forests of the Gulf of Mexico each spring and autumn as they migrate across and around the gulf. Migration routes in the gulf region are not static—they shift year to year and season to season according to prevailing wind patterns. Given the dynamic nature of migration routes, coastal...

Understanding the spatial heterogeneity of global environmental change in mountain regions
Sarah Shafer, Patrick J. Bartlein, Cathy Whitlock
2005, Book chapter, Global change and mountain regions: An overview of current knowledge
One of the challenges for global environmental change research is to understand how future climate changes will be expressed in mountain regions. The physiographic complexity of mountains creates environments that can be highly variable over relatively short distances. This spatial heterogeneity reflects a hierarchy of environmental controls. At regional scales,...

The latest Oligocene and early Miocene diatom biostratigraphy (24.4 to 16.9 Ma) of equatorial Pacific ODP Site 199-1219 is documented and tied to paleomagnetic stratigraphy in 69 samples, allowing an average age resolution of about 100 kyrs. An updated taxonomy is provided and most of the 71 taxa are illustrated...
