1956, Wisconsin Geological & Natural History Survey Information Circular 3
The purpose of this report is to describe in general the occurrence, source, movement, and use of ground water in Wisconsin in order that present problems of ground-water development may be understood and to point out the need for study and evaluation of the potential ground water available. Areas with...
Preliminary chemical quality study in the Manhattan Beach area, California
Robert Brennan
1956, Bulletin 63-E
In 1904 Mendenhall (1905) made a survey of the ground water conditions in southern California. At the time of his survey the piezometric surface in the area was above sea level, but since that time water levels have declined. During the 1920's, years of rapid development, the water levels declined...

Saline waters in New York State, Long Island, Staten Island and Manhattan, and upstate New York
N.J. Lusczynski, J. J. Geraghty, E.S. Asselstine, I.G. Grossman
1956, Bulletin GW-36
In connection with studies of the practicability of conversion of saline water to fresh water, the U. S. Geological Survey assembled data on the occurrence, distribution, quantity, and chemical quality of saline waters as of 1955 for a report entitled, "Preliminary survey of the saline water resources of the United...

1956, Audubon Field Notes (10) 565-583
Summary and Recommendations: We suggest that managers are approaching the limits of their ability to improve waterfowl harvest management, primarily because the information needed to make better decisions is being sacrificed by the current approach to setting regulations. We propose an actively adaptive management strategy in which regulatory...

Ground-water data collected in the Missouri River basin units in Kansas during 1955
B.J. Mason
1956, Report
Ground-water studies in the Missouri River Basin were begun by the United States Geological Survey during the fall of 1945 as a part of the program for development of the resources of the basin by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and other Federal Agencies. The studies of the ground-water resources...
Ceroid in fish
E. M. Wood, W. T. Yasutake
1956, The American Journal of Pathology (32) 591-603
Since the original description of ceroid in rats, many papers have appeared on the etiology and characteristics of this pigment. It was first seen as a yellow, granular pigment in hematoxylin and eosin sections of the cirrhotic livers of choline deficient rats. The pigment was more fully characterized by Endicott...
Summary of the mineralogy of the Colorado Plateau uranium ores
Alice D. Weeks, Robert Griffin Coleman, Mary E. Thompson
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 583
In the Colorado Plateau uranium has been produced chiefly from very shallow mines in carnotite ores (oxidized vanadiferous uranium ores) until recent deeper mining penetrated black unoxidized ores in water-saturated rocks and extensive exploration has discovered many deposits of low to nonvanadiferous ores. The uranium ores include a wide...
Uranium in carbonaceous rocks in the Townsend and Helena valleys, Montana
George E. Becraft
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 581
Uranium-bearing carbonaceous shale and lignite beds are exposed in five areas in the Townsend and Helena Valleys in western Montana. The greatest number of exposures is in an area of several square miles northeast of Winston in the Townsend Valley. The uranium-bearing beds are in the lower part...
Behavior of Colorado Plateau uranium minerals during oxidation
Robert Minard Garrels, C. L. Christ
1956, Trace Elements Investigations 588
Uranium occurs as U(VI) and U(IV) in minerals of the Colorado Plateau ores. The number of species containing U(VI) is large, but only two U(IV) minerals are known from the Plateau: uraninite, and oxide, and coffinite, a hydroxy-silicate. These oxidize to yield U(VI) before reacting significantly with other...
