Maestrichtian benthic foraminifers from Ocean Point, North Slope, Alaska ( USA).
K. McDougall
1987, Journal of Foraminiferal Research (17) 344-366
Previous studies of fauna and flora from Ocean Point, Alaska, have suggested ages ranging from Campanian to early Eocene and that these assemblages are either highly endemic or commonplace. I demonstrate that the moderately abundant benthic foraminifers constitute early Maestrichtian boreal assemblages common to Canada and northern Europe. Paleoenvironmental analysis...
Common Murre (Uria aalge) attendance patterns at Cape St. Mary's, Newfoundland
John F. Piatt, Ruth L. McLagan
1987, Canadian Journal of Zoology (65) 1530-1534
Attendance patterns of common murres (Uria aalge) at Cape St. Mary's, Newfoundland, were observed during hatching to post-fledging periods of 1980 to 1984. Six study plots on breeding ledges (ca. 450 birds total) and a "club" on the water were monitored for seasonal fluctuations in numbers attending. Attendance on ledges...
Three volcanoes erupt in Alaska
T. P. Miller
1987, Earthquakes & Volcanoes (USGS) (19) 192-198
Alaska has over 40 historically active volcanoes and normally averages one eruption a year. Alaskan volcanoes were unusually active in 1986. Augustine, Pavlof, and Akutan volcaneos all erupted vigorously; at one time in April, all three were erupting. ...
Later Paleozoic and Early Jurassic fossil ages from the McHugh Complex: A section in Geologic studies in Alaska by the U.S. Geological Survey during 1985 Circular 978
Steven W. Nelson, Charles D. Blome, Anita G. Harris, Katherine M. Reed, Frederic H. Wilson
1986, Circular 978
Late Mississippian through Early Pennsylvanian and Early Jurassic microfossils were collected from the type locality of the McHugh Complex (Clark, 1973) along the Seward Highway southeast of Anchorage (fig. 36). Radiolarians collected indicate that same of the oceanic rocks in the McHugh Complex are Early Jurassic in age. Conodonts extracted from...
Sequential tests for infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus in individuals and populations of sockeye salmon
Daniel M. Mulcahy, Ron Pascho
1986, Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences (43) 2515-2519
The incidence and titer distribution of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus in cavity fluid from spent female sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) varied little when fish from a naturally spawning population were sampled three times on alternate days. However, when prespawning female sockeye salmon from a second population were individually tagged, penned,...
A hermaphroditic Arctic flounder, Liopsetta glacialis (Pleuronectidae), from Alaska
S.R. Goldberg, W. T. Yasutake, R.L. West
1986, Copeia (1986) 1024
We discovered a hermaphrodite Liopsetta glacialis while examining tissues from a sample of 30 representatives of this species for a histopathological survey of fishes from the Beaufort Sea, Alaska. L. glacialis occurs in the Arctic Ocean from Queen Maude Gulf in arctic Canada, along the North American and Siberian coasts to the...
Energy budget and prey requirements of breeding lapland longspurs Calcarius lapponicus near Barrow Alaska, U.S.A.
T. W. Custer, R. G. Osborn, F.A. Pitelka, J.A. Gessaman
1986, Arctic and Alpine Research (18) 415-428
Breeding Lapland longspurs, Calcarius lapponicus, near Barrow, Alaska, have relatively constant energy demands throughout the summer; the average estimated daily energy budgets (DEBs) were 132 and 118 kJ for the male and female. Thermoregulation accounted consistently for one-quarter to one-third of the total DEB. Flight in the male and incubation...

The Unalakleet River, Alaska, from its headwaters to the confluence of the Chiroskey River has been designated as a wild river and is included in the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System. Yearly low flow, which occurs during the winter, is sustained by groundwater discharge; there are few lakes in...
