The bottom fauna of Lake Huron
Howard D. Teter
1960, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (89) 193-197
The examination of 63 bottom samples, collected in Lake Huron in 1952 and 1956, revealed that Pontoporeia affinis was the dominant organism in both deep and shallow water. The next most abundant organisms in deep water were oligochaetes, fingernail clams, and midge larvae. Midge larvae were more numerous than either...
Water and the Southwest
Luna Bergere Leopold

In a pluvial period associated with Wisconsin glaciation the closed basin of the Estancia valley in New Mexico held a lake which, at its maximum extent, was 150 feet deep and had a surface area of 450 square miles. This basin, with an elevation of about 6,000 feet, has at...
A primer on water
Luna Bergere Leopold, Walter Basil Langbein
1960, Report
When you open the faucet you expect water to flow. And you expect it to flow night or day, summer or winter, whether you want to fill a glass or water the lawn. It should be clean and pure, without any odor.You have seen or read about places where the...
Age and growth of the whitefish Coregonus clupeaformis, of Munising Bay, Lake Superior
Thomas A. Edsall
1960, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (89) 323-332
This study is based on a sample of 415 whitefish collected in 1953 from an unexploited population in Munising Bay, Lake Superior. Gill-net and trawl catches had different length-frequency distributions and age compositions, but estimates of growth from the two catches were very similar. The body-scale relation is...
First-year growth of the walleye, Stizostedion vitreum vitreum (Mitchill), and associated factors in the Red Lakes, Minnesota
Lloyd L. Smith Jr., Richard L. Pycha
1960, Limnology and Oceanography (5) 281-290
First-year growth of the walleye, Stizostedion vitreum vitreum (Mitchill), was studied from 4,544 fish collected during the first summer of life in the Red Lakes in six seasons and from back calculations on 4,474 fish one year or more in age representing 17 year classes. Sexes did not differ in growth rate....

Etiology of sockeye salmon 'virus' disease
Raymond W. Guenther, S.W. Watson, R.R. Rucker, A. J. Ross
1959, Special Scientific Report - Fisheries 296
Violent epizootics among hatchery reared sockeye salmon fingerlings (Oncorhynchus nerka) caused by a filterable agent have occurred. In 1954, one source of this infectious, filterable agent was found to be adult sockeye viscera used in the diet for the fingerlings. The results of observations on an epizootic in 1958 indicate...

Robert R. Rucker
1959, Progressive Fish-Culturist (21) 22-25
In 1951. B. J. Earpio found a vibrio infection among salmon fingerlings being reared in saltwater at the Deception Pass Biological Station of the Washington State Department of Fisheries. The disease waa characterized by erythema at the base of fins and on the sides of the fish, necrotic areas in...
Gravity and seismic exploration in Yucca Valley, Nevada test site, January-April, 1959
William H. Diment, D.L. Healey, J.C. Roller
1959, Trace Elements Investigations 545
The thickness of the alluvial and tuffaceous deposits that overlie bedrock in Yucca Valley has been inferred from gravity and seismic measurements. Preliminary interpretations indicate that these deposits are thickest in a narrow north-trending trough in the eastern part of the valley. The gravity data delineate a buried north-trending ridge...

The Fulvous Tree Duck is a locally common breeding bird of the rice fields of southwestern Louisiana. Observations made in 1955, 1956 and 1957, showed that this species was probably most abundant in the vicinity of Mamou, Evangeline Parish, and Roanoke, Jefferson Davis Parish.
