Animal population dynamics: Identification of critical components
J.M. Emlen, E.K. Pikitch
1989, Ecological Modelling (44) 253-273
There is a growing interest in the use of population dynamics models in environmental risk assessment and the promulgation of environmental regulatory policies. Unfortunately, because of species and areal differences in the physical and biotic influences on population dynamics, such models must almost inevitably be both complex and species- or...
Methods for developing new stocks of Atlantic salmon
1989, Biological Report 89(12)
The productivity of many streams in NewEngland for Atlantic salmon is being restored through abatement of water pollution and removal of barriers to migrating fish. As a result, interest is increasing in reestablishment of natural spawning runs of Atlantic salmon in some of these streams. I describe methods intended to...

Terrestrial population models for ecological risk assessment: A state-of-the-art review
J.M. Emlen
1989, Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (8) 831-842
Few attempts have been made to formulate models for predicting impacts of xenobiotic chemicals on wildlife populations. However, considerable effort has been invested in wildlife optimal exploitation models. Because death from intoxication has a similar effect on population dynamics as death by harvesting, these management models are applicable to ecological...
Concentration of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus from water samples by tangential flow filtration and polyethylene glycol precipitation
W.N. Batts, J. R. Winton
1989, Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences (46 ) 964-968
Infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) was concentrated from water samples by polyethylene glycol (PEG) precipitation, tangential flow filtration (TFF), and by a combination of TFF followed by PEG precipitation of the retentate. Used alone, PEG increased virus titers more than 200-fold, and the efficiency of recovery was as great as...

A method to directly measure maximum volume of fish stomachs or digestive tracts
C.C. Burley, S. Vigg
1989, Journal of Fish Biology (34) 707-714
A new method for measuring maximum stomach or digestive tract volume of fish incorporates air injection at constant pressure with water displacement to measure directly the internal volume of a stomach or analogous structure. The method was tested with coho salmon, Oncorhynchus kisutch (Walbaum), which has a true stomach, and...

Ground-water-quality data for the upper and middle aquifers of the Potomac-Raritan-Magothy aquifer system in Middlesex and Monmouth Counties are compiled for the period 1923-86. A total of 330 wells were sampled: 192 wells in the upper aquifer and 138 wells in the middle aquifer. Most of the complete water-quality analyses...
A positive relationship between groundwater velocity and submersed macrophyte biomass in Sparkling Lake, Wisconsin
David M. Lodge, David P. Krabbenhoft, Robert G. Striegl
1989, Limnology and Oceanography (34) 235-239
We measured groundwater velocity and submersed macrophyte biomass at 52 shal- low (0.4-6.6 m) sites in mesotrophic Sparkling Lake, Vilas County, Wisconsin, during May-Au- gust 1985. Seventeen percent of variation in macrophyte biomass was explained by a signifi- cant (P < 0.005) relation with depth [log(biomass + 1) = 0.49...

1989, Wisconsin Geological & Natural History Survey Information Circular 60
The presence of low-permeability Precambrian rocks near land surface limits ground-water availability in the northern two-thirds of Wood County. Sand and gravel deposits provide large amounts of water (more than 500 gallons per minute) to some wells in the southeastern part of the county. Fine-grained unconsolidated deposits generally are less...

A parabolic function to modify Thornthwaite estimates of potential evapotranspiration for the eastern United States
G. J. McCabe Jr.
1989, Physical Geography (10) 176-189
The Thornthwaite potential evapotranspiration model is well known and widely used, but has received some criticism as it is primarily based on air temperature to estimate potential evapotranspiration. Errors of the Thornthwaite model can be analyzed using adjusted pan evaporation as an index of potential evapotranspiration. An examination of ratios of adjusted pan...
Relation of salinity and selenium in shallow groundwater to hydrologic and geochemical processes, Western San Joaquin Valley, California
S. J. Deverel, S.K. Gallanthine
1989, Journal of Hydrology (109) 125-149
Salinity and selenium concentrations in shallow groundwater of the western San Joaquin Valley, California, are related to the geomorphology and hydrology of the alluvial fans. The highest salinity and selenium concentrations in shallow groundwater occur in alluvium deposited by ephemeral streams and at the margins of the major alluvial fans,...

Characterization and origin of natural gases of the Anadarko Basin
Dudley D. Rice, Charles N. Threlkeld, April K. Buletich
1989, Book chapter, Anadarko Basin symposium, 1988 (Circular 90)
Natural-gas production in the Anadarko basin is from three geographically separated areas that can be differentiated by age of reservoir and by inferred nature of thermal origin of the gases. In the central basin, nonassociated gases are produced mainly from Upper Mississippian and Pennsylvanian sandstones. Gases become isotopically heavier (δ13C1...

Donald G. Jorgensen
1989, Book chapter, Anadarko Basin symposium (Circular 90)
Geohydrologic systems in the Anadarko basin in the central United States are controlled by topography, climate, geologic structures, and aquifer hydraulic properties, all of which are the result of past geologic and hydrologic processes, including tectonics and diagenesis. From Late Cambrian through Middle Ordovician time, a generally transgressive but cyclic...
