Twenty-three bald eagle eggs collected in Alaska, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, and Florida during 1969 and 1970 were analyzed for organochlorine pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls, and mercury. All eggs contained residues of DDE, dieldrin, PCB's, and mercury. Average residue concentrations were lowest in eggs from Alaska. Significant eggshell thinning...
Hydraulic testing of hole UA-1-HTH-1, Amchitka Island, Alaska
Wilbur C. Ballance, G.A. Dinwiddie
1972, Report
Total depth of the hole was 1,054 meters (3,458 feet) but, because of borehole erosion and bridging, only about 198 meters (650 feet) of the hole was·hydraulically tested with straddle packers. Some information was obtained on the lower part of the hole by use of the pressure recorders which are...
Channel erosion surveys along proposed TAPS route, Alaska, July 1971
Joseph M. Childers
1972, Report
The U.S. Geological Survey has the threefold responsibility along the proposed route of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS): to investigate possible hydroloqic hazards to the pipeline, to investigate possible impacts of the pipeline on water resources, and to develop a better understanding of Arctic hydrology. Because the proposed pipeline route...
Middle pleistocene mollusks from St. Lawrence Island and their significance for the paleo-oceanography of the Bering Sea
D.M. Hopkins, R.W. Rowland, W. W. Patton Jr.
1972, Quaternary Research (2) 119-134
Drift, evidently of Illinoian age, was deposited on St. Lawrence Island at the margin of an ice cap that covered the highlands of the Chukotka Peninsula of Siberia and spread far eastward on the continental shelf of northern Bering Sea. Underlying the drift on the northwestward part of the island...
Influence of grounding ice on the Arctic shelf of Alaska
E. Reimnitz, P. Barnes, T. Forgatsch, C. Rodeick
1972, Marine Geology (13) 323-334
Alaska's Beaufort Sea shelf is characterized by small-scale relief with an average amplitude of 1–2 m and wavelength of 50–100 m. Diving observations confirm that much of the bottom roughness reflects the action of grounded ice. Except for areas in the shadow of...
