Geologic map of the Ennis 30' x 60' quadrangle, Gallatin and Madison Counties, Montana
Karl S. Kellogg, Van S. Williams
1998, Open-File Report 97-851
The Ennis 1:100,000 quadrangle lies within both the Laramide (Late Cretaceous to early Tertiary) foreland province of southwestern Montana and the northeastern margin of the middle to late Tertiary Basin and Range province. The oldest rocks in the quadrangle are Archean high-grade gneiss, and granitic to ultramafic intrusive rocks that...
Multibeam data and socio-economic issues in west-central San Francisco Bay
John L. Chin, Paul R. Carlson, Florence L. Wong, David A. Cacchione
1998, Open-File Report 98-139
San Francisco Bay is the largest estuary on the conterminous U.S. Pacific Coast and is one of the world's largest natural harbors. It is a biologically productive and diverse environment. San Francisco Bay has a maritime economy that annually generates over $7.5 billion, handles 50 million tons of cargo, and...
Ground water resources of the Mille Lacs Lake area, east-central Minnesota
L. C. Trotta, T.K. Cowdery
1998, Water-Resources Investigations Report 97-4116
The Mille Lacs Lake study area is a 960 mi2 area containing the ground-water and surface-water drainages to both Mille Lacs Lake and the first 12 miles of the Rum River. Within this study area, available ground water occurs in saturated, overlapping, discontinuous, partially-connected, glacially-deposited (hereinafter, glacial) aquifers and in...
Streamflow statistics of selected streams in the lower Red River of the North basin, North Dakota, Minnesota, and Manitoba
Tara Williams-Sether, Gregg J. Wiche
1998, Open-File Report 98-21
Statistical summaries of streamflow data through water year 1994 for selected active and discontinued U.S. Geological Survey gaging stations for the Red River of the North Basin downstream of Halstad, Minnesota, to and including Emerson, Manitoba, are presented in this report. The summaries for each streamflow-gaging station include (1) station...
Seasonal differences in plasma cortisol and gill corticosteroid receptors in upper and lower mode juvenile Atlantic salmon
J. Mark Shrimpton, Stephen D. McCormick
1998, Aquaculture (168) 205-219
Circulating plasma cortisol and gill corticosteroid receptors (CR) have been observed to change seasonally in conjunction with smolting in Atlantic salmon. To differentiate whether these changes are seasonal or ontogenic, juvenile Atlantic salmon parr were separated by size into upper (UM) and lower mode (LM) in September. At monthly intervals,...
Repeated acute stress reduces growth rate of Atlantic salmon parr and alters plasma levels of growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor I and cortisol
S. D. McCormick, J. M. Shrimpton, J. B. Carey, M. F. O’Dea, K. E. Sloan, S. Moriyama, Bjorn Thrandur Bjornsson
1998, Aquaculture (168) 221-235
Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) parr were subjected to acute handling stresses and growth-monitored for at least 30 days. In fish stressed twice daily, growth rate in weight was 61% lower than controls after 11 days (1.00 vs. 2.57% day−1) and over a 30 day period it was 50% lower than...
Epizootics of cancer in fish associated with genotoxins sediment and water
P. C. Baumann
1998, Mutation Research (411) 227-233
Neoplasm epizootics in fish from a wide variety of freshwater, marine, and estuarine locations have been associated with genotoxins in sediment or water. The majority of cases have involved benthic or bottom feeding fish living in habitats with sediment contaminated by PAHs. The most common lesions involved in such epizootics...
An overview of San Francisco Bay PORTS
Ralph T. Cheng, David McKinnie, Chad English, Richard E. Smith
1998, Conference Paper
The Physical Oceanographic Real-Time System (PORTS) provides observations of tides, tidal currents, and meteorological conditions in real-time. The San Francisco Bay PORTS (SFPORTS) is a decision support system to facilitate safe and efficient maritime commerce. In addition to real-time observations, SFPORTS includes a nowcast numerical model forming a San Francisco...
Relation of lead exposure to sediment ingestion in mute swans on the Chesapeake Bay, USA
W. N. Beyer, D. Day, Alexandra Morton, Y. Pachepsky
1998, Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (17) 2298-2301
Although wildlife risk assessments are generally based on the accumulation of environmental contaminants through food chains, wildlife may also ingest contaminants incidentally with sediment. Forty-two mute swans (Cygnus olor) were collected from unpolluted portions of central Chesapeake Bay, Maryland, USA, in spring 1995, and their intestinal digesta were analyzed for...
Cenozoic global sea level, sequences, and the New Jersey transect: Results from coastal plain and continental slope drilling
K.G. Miller, Gregory S. Mountain, J.V. Browning, M. Kominz, P. J. Sugarman, N. Christie-Blick, M.E. Katz, J.D. Wright
1998, Reviews of Geophysics (36) 569-601
The New Jersey Sea Level Transect was designed to evaluate the relationships among global sea level (eustatic) change, unconformity-bounded sequences, and variations in subsidence, sediment supply, and climate on a passive continental margin. By sampling and dating Cenozoic strata from coastal plain and continental slope locations, we show that sequence...
Geologic map of the western part of the Cut Bank 1° x 2° quadrangle, northwestern Montana
Jack E. Harrison, James W. Whipple, David J. Lidke, Helen Z. Kayser, Robert J. Miller
1998, IMAP 2593
The paper geologic map of the western part of the Cut Bank 1° x 2° quadrangle, northwestern Montana (Harrison and others, 1998) was digitized and initially attributed by the Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology (MBMG) and remitted to the U.S. Geological Survey for further attribution and publication of the...
Fate of MTBE relative to benzene in a gasoline-contaminated aquifer (1993-98):
James Landmeyer, Francis H. Chapelle, Paul M. Bradley, James F. Pankow, Clinton D. Church, Paul G. Tratnyek
1998, Groundwater Monitoring & Remediation (18) 93-102
Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) and benzene have been measured since 1993 in a shallow, sandy aquifer contaminated by a mid-1980s release of gasoline containing fuel oxygenates. In wells downgradient of the release area, MTBK was detected before benzene, reflecting a chromatographic-like separation of these compounds in the direction of ground...
Using chloride and chlorine-36 as soil-water tracers to estimate deep percolation at selected locations on the U.S. Department of Energy Hanford Site, Washington
Edmund A. Prych
1998, Water Supply Paper 2481
A chloride mass-balance method and a chlorine-36 isotope bomb-pulse method were used to estimate long-term average rates of deep percolation at at the U.S. Department of Energy Hanford Site. Because the bomb-pulse method typically gives an upper limit and the mass-balance method may underestimate, estimates from both methods probably bracket...
Estimating the effectiveness of further sampling inspecies inventories
Kim A. Keating, James F. Quinn, M.A. Ivie, L.L. Ivie
1998, Ecological Applications (8) 1239-1249
Estimators of the number of additional species expected in the next Δn samples offer a potentially important tool for improving cost-effectiveness of species inventories but are largely untested. We used Monte Carlo methods to compare 11 such estimators, across a range of community structures and sampling regimes, and validated our results,...
