Habitat Suitability Index Models: Juvenile spot
Robert R. Stickney, Michael L. Cuenco
1982, FWS/OBS 82/10.20
A review and synthesis of existing information were used to develop estuarine habitat models for juvenile spot (Leiostomus xanthurus).

Geomorphology of New England
C. S. Denny
1982, Professional Paper 1208
Widely scattered terrestrial deposits of Cretaceous or Tertiary age and extensive nearshore and fluvial Coastal Plain deposits now largely beneath the sea indicate that the New England region has been above sea level during and since the Late Cretaceous. Estimates of rates of erosion based on sediment load in rivers...
House bat management
Arthur M. Greenhall
1982, Resource Publication 143
The soundest long-term solution for the management of bats that enter buildings and cause a nuisance problem or present a public health hazard is by batproofing the structure. Chemical toxicants do not solve house bat problems and may create worse ones. This manual describes batproofing techniques that will provide effective...
Habitat Suitability Index Models: Regression models based on harvest of cool and coldwater fishes in reservoirs
Larry R. Aggus, William M. Bivin
1982, FWS/OBS 82/10.25
The methods presented in this report are designed to permit habitat classification of reservoirs, containing coolwater, coldwater, and seasonal two-story fisheries, based on harvest of selected coolwater and coldwater sport fishes.
