Numbered nasal discs for waterfowl
James C. Bartonek, C.W. Dane
1964, Journal of Wildlife Management (28) 688-692
Numbered nasal discs were successfully used in studies requiring large numbers of individually marked waterfowl. The procedure for constructing these discs is outlined. Blue-winged teal (Anas discors) with 5/8-inch discs, and canvasback (Aythya valisineria) and redhead (A. americana) with 3/4-inch discs can be individually identified up to 50 and 80...

[Book review] Politics and water resources
Luna Bergere Leopold
1964, Science (144) 402-403
Arizona is a state in which development has proceeded sufficiently rapidly relative to the available water supply that its water problems are as acute as those of nearly any other state in the Union. Owing to the fact that, in the past, the principal use of water was for irrigation,...
Fluvial processes in geomorphology

Origin of precambrian iron formations
H. Lepp, S. S. Goldich
1964, Economic Geology (59) 1025-1060
A statistical study of the chemical composition of the Precambrian iron formations of the Canadian Shield affords a new approach to the origin of these unusual formations. The average total iron content of 2,200 samples from the literature and from unpublished mining company analyses is 26.7 percent Fe. The average Fe content for 16 iron formations in the United States and Canada...

This report presents the data collected for a study of the dissolved-mineral load contributed by surficial sources to Great Salt Lake, Utah. The study was conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the University of Utah during the period from July 1959 through June 1962, and is part...
Effects on the shallow artesian aquifer of withdrawing water from the deep artesian aquifer near Sugarville, Millard County, Utah
R. W. Mower
1963, Utah State Engineer Water Circular 10
Ground water occurs in a shallow (unconfined) aquifer and in at least two artesian (confined) aquifers in the unconsolidated alluvial material composing the valley fill near Sugarville, Utah. No wells are known to withdraw water from the unconfined aquifer, and this report is limited to a discussion of the effects...
Test drilling in the upper Sevier River drainage basin, Garfield and Piute Counties, Utah
