Late Cretaceous inoceramid bivalves of the Kuskokwim Basin, southwestern Alaska, and their implications for basin evolution
W.P. Elder, S. E. Box
1992, Journal of Paleontology (66)
Upper Cretaceous rocks of the Kuskokwim Group are exposed in a large region of southwestern Alaska and are mainly composed of deformed turbidite deposits that contain few fossils other than inoceramid bivalves. This paper documents the taxonomy of the inoceramids in the Kuskokwim Group, develops an inoceramid...

Distribution, numbers, and habitat of Bristle-thighed Curlews (Numinous tahitiensis) on Rangiroa atoll
Robert E. Gill Jr., Roland L. Redmond
1992, Notornis (39) 17-26
We assessed the numbers, distribution, and habitat of Bristle-tithed Curlews (Numinous tahitiensis) on Rangiroa Atoll, Tuamotu Archipelago, during a visit in April 1988. We estimated a total of 250-350 curlews on the atoll. These birds were seen only on the southern and western rims, where they were most common on...
Time allocation by Greater White-fronted Geese: Influence of diet, energy reserves and predation
Craig R. Ely
1992, The Condor (94) 857-870
I determined the amount of time Greater White-fronted Geese (Anser albifrons frontalis) allocated to various activities from September to May, 1980-1982 at their primary wintering areas in the Pacific Flyway of North America. The length of time spent on roosts during the day was positively correlated to day length. Geese...

Lower Cretaceous smarl turbidites of the Argo Abyssal Plain, Indian Ocean

Sondra K. Stewart, Diana Kennett, Elsa K. Mazzullo, editor(s)
1992, Proceedings of the Ocean Drilling Program: Scientific Results 123-5
Sediments recovered during Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 123 from the Argo Abyssal Plain (AAP) consist largely of turbidites derived from the adjacent Australian continental margin. The oldest abundant turbidites are Valanginian-Aptian in age and have a mixed (smarl) composition; they contain subequal amounts of calcareous and siliceous biogenic components,...
Suppression of guinea pig ileum induced contractility by plasma albumin of hibernators
David S. Bruce, Douglas L. Ambler, Timothy M. Henschel, Peter R. Oeltgen, Sita P. Nilekani, Steven C. Amstrup
1992, Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior (43) 199-203
Previous studies suggest that hibernation may be regulated by internal opioids and that the putative “hibernation induction trigger” (HIT) may itself be an opioid. This study examined the effect of plasma albumin (known to bind HIT) on induced contractility of the guinea pig ileum muscle strip. Morphine (400 nM) depressed...
Reproductive implications of egg-size variation in Black Brant
Paul L. Flint, James S. Sedinger
1992, The Auk (109) 896-903
We analyzed variation in egg size of Black Brant (Branta bernicla nigricans) in relation to clutch size, laying date, female age, year, and position in the laying sequence. A total of 3,478 eggs was measured over three years. Egg size increased with clutch size and female age, and decreased with...

Brine seepage into the Dolores River from ground water in Paradox Valley, Colorado constitutes a major source of salt to the Colorado River. Plants are enderway to remove this source of salt by drawing down the Paradox Valley brine (PVB) and...
Hydrogeochemical exploration of geothermal prospects in the Tecuamburro Volcano region, Guatemala

1992, Geothermics (21) 447-481
Chemical and isotopic analyses of thermal and nonthermal waters and of gases from springs and fumaroles are used to evaluate the geothermal potential of the Tecuamburro Volcano region, Guatemala. Chemically distinct geothermal surface manifestations generally occur in separate hydrogeologic areas within this 400 km2 region: low-pressure fumaroles with temperatures near local...

Tensiometers: Theory, construction, and use
D.I. Stannard
1992, Geotechnical Testing Journal (15) 48-58
Standard tensiometers are used to measure matric potential as low as −870 cm of water in the unsaturated zone by creating a saturated hydraulic link between the soil water and a pressure sensor. The direction and, in some cases, quantity of water flux can be determined using multiple installations.A variety...
