[Book review] Birds of Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, Oregon
M. Ralph Browning
1991, The Auk (108) 1003-1004
Although John Warham has worked for at least 40 years on procellariids, this book is much more than just a summary of a distinguished research career. It is a useful synthesis of the vast and often obscure literature on the more than 100 species of shearwaters, petrels, albatrosses, and fulmars...

The relationship between stable oxygen and hydrogen isotope ratios of water in astomatal plants
Lee W. Cooper, Michael J. DeNiro, Jon E. Keeley
H. P. Taylor Jr., J. R. O’Neil, I.R. Kaplan, editor(s)
1991, Book chapter, Stable Isotope Geochemistry: A Tribute to Samuel Epstein.
Isotropic fractination of leaf water during transpiration is influenced by both equilibrium and kinetic factors. Previous workers have predicted that the influence of each factor varies depending upon the path of water loss,m whether centralized through stomata, or diffuse through the cuticle. We studied the relationship between the...

On the observation, characterisation, and predictive GIS mapping of strong ground shaking for seismic zonation
Roger D. Borcherdt
1991, Bulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering (24) 287-305
Tragic earthquakes of the last decade in Mexico, Armenia, and the United States have re-emphasised the importance of local geologic site conditions in determining amounts of damage and consequent loss of life. Extensive data sets in the San Francisco Bay region on strong earthquake ground motions, the damage distributions from...
Thirty-eighth supplement to the American Ornithologists' Union Check-list of North American birds
Burt L. Monroe Jr., Richard C. Banks, John W. Fitzpatrick, Thomas R. Howell, Ned K. Johnson, Henri Ouellet, J.V. Remsen, Robert W. Storer

The Great Salt Lake
W.R. Hassibe, W.G. Keck
1991, Report
The western part of the conterminous United States is often thought of as being a desert without any large bodies of water. In the desert area of western Utah, however, lies Great Salt Lake, which in 1986 covered approximately 2,300 square miles and contained 30 million acre-feet of water (an...

Effects of roadside habitat and fox density on a snow track survey for foxes in Ohio
Thomas R. Stanley, Jonathan Bart
1991, Ohio Journal of Science (91) 186-187
Many methods have been used to survey red fox (Vulpes vulpes) and gray fox (Urocyon dnereoargenteus) populations. However, none has proven entirely satisfactory, and wild foxes remain one of the most difficult economically important wildlife species to monitor. In this study we evaluated the reliability of a snow track survey...

Evaluation of the instream flow incremental methodology by U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service field users
Carl L. Armour, Jonathan G. Taylor
1991, Fisheries (16) 36-43
This paper summarizes results of a survey conducted in 1988 of 57 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service field offices. The purpose was to document opinions of biologists experienced in applying the Instream Flow Incremental Methodology (IFIM). Responses were received from 35 offices where 616 IFIM applications were reported. The existence...
Weights and hematology of wild black bears during hibernation
Glenn D. DelGiudice, Lynn L. Rogers, Arthur W. Allen, U.S. Seal
1991, Journal of Wildlife Diseases (27) 637-642
We compared weights and hematological profiles of adult (>3-yr-old) female black bears (Ursus americanus) during hibernation (after 8 January). We handled 28 bears one to four times (total of 47) over 4 yr of varying mast and berry production. Mean weight of lactating...

40AR/39Ar ages of six Apollo 15 impact melt rocks by laser step heating
G. Brent Dalrymple, Graham Ryder
1991, Geophysical Research Letters (18) 1163-1166
We have obtained 15 high resolution (21–51 step) 40Ar/39 age spectra on six Apollo 15 impact melt rocks of different compositions using a continuous laser system on submilligram subsamples and on single crystal plagioclase clasts. Four of the six samples gave reproducible age spectra with well-defined intermediate temperature plateaus over 48% or...
