[Book review] The known birds of North and Middle America: Distribution and variation, migrations, changes, hybrids, etc, Part I, Hirundinidae to Mimidae, Certhiidae
Richard C. Banks
R. Phillips, editor(s)
1991, The Auk (108) 999-1003
"Known Birds" is the culmination of Allan Phillips' long and productive career in elucidating the taxonomy and relationships of North American, particularly Mexican, birds. It reflects many years of largely independent work in the field, museum, and library. Although Part I includes contributions by Robert W. Dickerman, Amadeo M. Rea,...
Late Quaternary stratigraphy and depositional history of the Long Island Sound basin
Ralph S. Lewis, Janet Radway Stone
1991, Journal of Coastal Research (11) 1-23
The stratigraphy of Late Quaternary geologic units beneath Long Island Sound (LIS) is interpreted from 3,500 km of high-resolution, seismic-reflection profiles supplemented by vibracore data. Knowledge gained from onshore regional geologic studies and previous offshore investigations is also incorporated in these interpretations. Glacial deposits overlie and nearly fill an Inner Lowland...
On forming an Ornithological Council
Richard C. Banks
1991, The Auk (108) 208-210
It has begun to bother me that the ornithological societies seem to be playing an extremely minor role in anything to do with conserving, preserving, or salvaging the environment. We realize-or we tell each other that we do-that birds are an important part of the world's ecosystems, that they can...
Tectonic evolution of submarine canyons along the California continental margin
H. Gary Greene, Samuel H. Clarke Jr., Michael P. Kennedy
Robert H. Osborne, editor(s)
1991, Book chapter, From shoreline to abyss: Contributions in marine geology in honor of Francis Parker Shepard
The development of submarine canyons along active-plate margins commonly is influenced by tectonic processes. Recent studies of submarine canyons along the transform margin of western North America show that the origin and subsequent evolution of many canyons are correlatable with plate motion and plate-margin deformation. Elements of canyon morphology such...
Mammals of the Tres Marias Islands
Don E. Wilson
1991, Book chapter, Contributions to mammalogy in honor of K. F. Koopman: Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History
No abstract available....
Feeding rate of slimy sculpin and burbot on young lake charr in laboratory reefs
Jacqueline F. Savino, Mary G. Henry
1991, Environmental Biology of Fishes (31) 275-282
Predation and contaminants are two possible factors in the poor recruitment of young lake charr Salvelinus namaycush in the Great Lakes. We measured the feeding rate of slimy sculpins Cottus cognatus and burbot Lota lota on young lake charr (uncontaminated young from eggs of a hatchery brood stock and contaminated...
Intrinsic Nd, Pb, and Sr isotopic heterogeneities exhibited by the Lherz Alpine Peridotite Massif, French Pyrenees
S.B. Mukasa, J.W. Shervais, H. G. Wilshire, J. E. Nielson
1991, Journal of Petrology (Special) 117-134
Optically clear, acid-leached Cr-diopside, Al-augite, pargasitic amphibole, and phlogopite from peridotite and ultramafic dikes of the Lherz massif (French Pyrenees) exhibit chemical and isotopic heterogeneities indicative of a complex history. The data cover a wide range on the 143Nd/144Nd vs. 87Sr/86Sr covariation diagram, encompassing much of the mantle array and a...
Magmatic evolution of the Gulf of California rift
Michael G. Sawlan
J. Paul Dauphin, Bernd R. T. Simoneit, editor(s)
1991, Book chapter, The gulf and peninsular province of the Californias
Magmatic events in the Baja peninsula-Gulf of California region are closely related to sequential tectonic regimes of: (1) late Tertiary subduction beneath the continental margin until ~16 to 12.5 Ma; and (2) continental to oceanic rifting that began about 13 Ma. Orogenic calcalkaline volcanic rocks formed subparallel belts of rhyolite...
