Water-resources reconnaissance of the southeastern part of St Paul Island, Pribilof Islands, Alaska
Alvin John Feulner
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-61
A hydrologic reconnaissance of the southeastern part of St. Paul Island, Pribilof Islands, Alaska, was made in August 1979 to determine if sufficient freshwater is available for a proposed harbor and fish-processing facility. Only three wells were being used in 1979, two by the community of St. Paul and one...
Reconnaissance snow survey of the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska, April-May 1979
William J. Glude, Charles E. Sloan
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-49
Moderately low snowfall and an early and abrupt spring thaw resulted in removal of most of the snow cover from the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska (NPRA) before the snow survey of April 30 through May 2, 1979. Logistical problems and lack of snow permitted sampling at only seven sites....
Geohydrology of the Delta-Clearwater area, Alaska
Dorothy E. Wilcox
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-92
The alluvial aquifer in the Delta-Clearwater area, Alaska, is composed of lenticular, interbedded deposits of silt, sand, and gravel. Ground water occurs under both confined and unconfined conditions in the area. The potentiometric surface slopes approximately northward at gradients ranging from about 1 to 25 feet per mile. The aquifer...
Neogene sedimentation on the outer continental margin, southern Bering Sea
T.L. Vallier, M.B. Underwood, J.V. Gardner, J.A. Barron
1980, Marine Geology (36) 269-287
Neogene sedimentary rocks and sediments from sites on the outer continental margin in the southern Bering Sea and on the Alaska Peninsula are dominated by volcanic components that probably were eroded from an emergent Aleutian Ridge. A mainland continental source is subordinate. Most sediment in the marine environment was transported...
Channelization and livestock impacts on salmonid habitat and biomass in western Washington
D.W. Chapman, E. Knudsen
1980, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (109) 357-363
We examined salmonid habitat and biomasses in 50–70‐m pairs of altered and control sections of small (discharges less than 0.3 m3second−1) streams around Puget Sound in western Washington in 1978–1979. Altered sections had been channelized or used by livestock. Channelization significantly reduced overhead cover, sinuosity, wetted area, and woody bank...

Sediment transport in Norton Sound, Alaska
D.E. Drake, D.A. Cacchione, R.D. Muench, C.H. Nelson
1980, Marine Geology (36) 97-126
The Yukon River, the largest single source of Bering Sea sediment, delivers > 95% of its sediment load at the southwest comer of Norton Sound during the ice-free months of late May through October. During this period, surface winds in the northern Bering Sea area are generally light from the...
Sedimentology and geochemistry of surface sediments, outer continental shelf, southern Bering Sea
J.V. Gardner, W.E. Dean, T.L. Vallier
1980, Marine Geology (35) 299-329
Present-day sediment dynamics, combined with lowerings of sea level during the Pleistocene, have created a mixture of sediments on the outer continental shelf of the southern Bering Sea that was derived from the Alaskan Mainland, the Aleutian Islands, and the Pribilof ridge. Concentrations of finer-grained, higher-organic sediments in the region...
Mesozoic and Cenozoic structural trends under southern Bering Sea shelf
Michael S. Marlow, Alan K. Cooper
1980, AAPG Bulletin (64) 2139-2155
Mesozoic rocks exposed near the tip of the Alaska Peninsula form an antiformal structure that flanks the southern side of Bristol Bay basin and that can be traced with geophysical data about 700 km offshore to the vicinity of the Pribilof Islands. Upper Jurassic sandstone and Upper Cretaceous mudstone dredged...
Viral erythrocytic necrosis: Some physiological consequences of infection in chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta)
John R. MacMillan, Daniel M. Mulcahy, Marsha L. Landolt
1980, Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences (37) 799-804
Erythroid cells in chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) susceptible to infection with erythrocytic necrosis virus (ENV) were examined by light and electron microscopy. Cells of stages II, III, IV, V, and VI contained complete eyrthrocytic necrosis virions in the cytoplasm. Viruses closely resembling ENV were also detected in the nuclei of...

Holocene Pacific–North American plate interaction in southern Alaska: Implications for the Yakataga seismic gap
J.C. Lahr, George Plafker
1980, Geology (8) 483-486
The St. Elias, Alaska, earthquake (magnitude 7.1 Ms) on February 28, 1979, occurred along the complex Pacific–North American plate boundary between Yakutat Bay and Prince William Sound, rupturing only a fraction of the seismic gap identified in that region. To aid in evaluating the...
Petroleum geology of Kodiak Shelf, Alaska.
Michael A. Fisher
1980, American Association of Petroleum Geologists Bulletin (64) 1140-1157
Organic geochemical data show that Cenozoic rocks on Kodiak Island, in Albatross basin, and under the continental slope generally contain less than 0.5 wt. % organic carbon. Moreover, kerogen from all rocks analyzed is predominantly (60 to 100%) herbaceous; woody and coaly kerogens are present in secondary (20 to 40%)...
Origin of gasoline-range hydrocarbons and their migration by solution in carbon dioxide in Norton basin, Alaska.
Keith A. Kvenvolden, George E. Claypool
1980, American Association of Petroleum Geologists Bulletin (64) 1078-1086
Carbon dioxide from a submarine seep in Norton Sound, Alaska, carries a minor component of gas- and gasoline-range hydrocarbons. The molecular and isotopic compositions of the hydrocarbon gases and the presence of gasoline-range hydrocarbons indicate that these molecules are derived from thermal alteration of marine and/or nonmarine organic matter buried...
