The Scientific Results volumes of the Proceedings of the Ocean Drilling Program contain specialty papers presenting the results of extensive research in various aspects of scientific ocean drilling. The authors of the papers published in this volume have enabled future investigators to gain ready access to the results of their...
Quality control considerations for the determination of acid-volatile sulfide and simultaneously extracted metals in sediments
William G. Brumbaugh, Jesse W. Arms
1996, Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (15) 282-285
The determination of acid-volatile sulfide (AVS) and simultaneously extracted metals (SEMs) in sediment by treatment with dilute HCl shows promise as a tool for predicting the potential for metal toxicity to sediment-dwelling organisms. Effective quality control measures must be developed if this method is to become a reliable procedure and...

Concordance of seabird population parameters: Analytical methods and interpretation
Scott A. Hatch
1996, Conference Paper, Studies of high-latitude seabirds: 4) Trophic relationships and energetics of endotherms in cold ocean systems (Occasional Papers of the Canadian Wildlife Service, no. 91)
In an ecological context, concordance may be defined as the tendency for paired values of some parameter, such as the annual productivity of bird species, to show similar directions and magnitudes of deviation from the mean. Where concordance among populations is high, there is an implied similarity of the ecological...

Floods in Central Texas, December 1991
H. R. Hejl Jr., Raymond M. Slade, Marshall E. Jennings
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 95-4289
Record-breaking peak discharges were recorded at eight U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) streamflow-gaging stations in central Texas during December 1991 (fig. 1), and substantial peak discharges also occurred at numerous other stations. Large peak discharges during December are unusual in central Texas. The rainfall causing the flooding began on December 18,...
Assessment of intrinsic bioremediation of gasoline contamination in the shallow aquifer, Laurel Bay Exchange, Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, South Carolina
J. E. Landmeyer, Francis Chapelle, P. M. Bradley
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4026
Laboratory, field, and digital solute-transport- modeling studies demonstrate that microorganisms indigenous to the shallow ground-water system at Laurel Bay Exchange, Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, South Carolina, can degrade petroleum hydrocarbons in gasoline released at the site. Microorganisms in aquifer sediments incubated in the laboratory under aerobic and anaerobic conditions...

Estimating aquatic toxicity as determined through laboratory tests of great lakes sediments containing complex mixtures of environmental contaminants
1996, Environmental Monitoring and Assessment (41) 255-289
We developed and evaluated a total toxic units modeling approach for predicting mean toxicity as measured in laboratory tests for Great Lakes sediments containing complex mixtures of environmental contaminants (e.g., polychlorinated biphenyls, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, pesticides, chlorinated dioxins, and metals). The approach incorporates equilibrium partitioning and organic carbon control of...
Effects of spatial and temporal variation of acid-volatile sulfide on the bioavailability of copper and zinc in freshwater sediments
John M. Besser, Christopher G. Ingersoll, John P. Giesty
1996, Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (15) 286-293
Variation in concentrations of acid-volatile sulfide (AVS) in sediments from the upper Clark Fork River of Montana, USA, was associated with differences in bioaccumulation of Cu and Zn and growth of larvae of the midge, Chironomus tentans. Growth of midge larvae was significantly greater and bioaccumulation of Cu was significantly less...
Seafloor environments in Cape Cod Bay, a large coastal embayment
H.J. Knebel, R.R. Rendigs, J. H. List, Richard P. Signell
1996, Marine Geology (133) 11-33
Cape Cod Bay is a glacial, semi-enclosed embayment that has a patchy distribution of modern seafloor sedimentary environments of erosion or nondeposition, deposition, and sediment reworking. Sidescan-sonar records and supplemental bathymetric, sedimentary, subbottom, and physical-oceanographic data indicate that the characteristics and distribution of these three categories of bottom environments are...
Late Holocene alluvial geomorphology of the Virgin River in the Zion National Park area, southwest Utah
Richard Hereford, Gordon C. Jacoby, V. Alexander McCord
1996, GSA Special Papers (310) 1-41
This study traces the geomorphic development of the alluvial valley of the Virgin River in the Zion National Park region of southwest Utah. The purpose is to identify, date, and interpret the patterns of erosion and deposition that formed the alluvial valley over the past 1,000 years. This information is...
Hercynian I-type and S-type granitoids from the Slavonian mountains (southern Pannonian Basin, northern Croatia)
J. Pamic, M. Lanphere, M. Belak
1996, Neues Jahrbuch fur Mineralogie, Abhandlungen (171) 155-186
Two genetically different groups of Hercynian granitoids occur in the Slavonian Mountains which are included in the southern Pannonian Basin. I-type granitoids occur in Barrovian-type progressive metamorphic sequences which originated during the Hercynian orogeny from the Late Silurian to Lower Carboniferous magmatic-sedimentary complex. S-type granitoids, enriched in incompatible trace elements,...
No: The L.A. array is not ready for prime time
James C. Savage
1996, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (77) 419-427
Although much interest will focus upon the temporal behavior of observed deformation, the principal justification for the SCIGN array is that within a 5‐year interval it will provide an accurate and detailed determination of the velocity field in the Los Angeles basin that can be used to identify the active...
Empirical Bayes estimation of proportions with application to cowbird parasitism rates
William A. Link, D. Caldwell Hahn
1996, Ecology (77) 2528-2537
Bayesian models provide a structure for studying collections of parameters such are considered in the investigation of communities, ecosystems, and landscapes. This structure allows for improved estimation of individual parameters by considering them in the context of a group of related parameters. Individual estimates are differntially adjusted toward in overall...
Plant succession and greentree reservoir management: Implications for management and restoration of bottomland hardwood wetlands
Sammy L. King, James A. Allen
1996, Wetlands (16) 503-511
Bottomland hardwood forests are distributed along rivers and streams throughout the central and eastern United States, with the greatest concentration in the Southeast. Past and projected losses of bottomland hardwoods and degradation of remaining stands suggest that habitat management and/or restoration strategies that target multiple species and multiple uses will...
