Reduction of matrix interferences in furnace atomic absorption with the L'vov Platform
M. L. Kaiser, S. R. Koirtyohann, E. J. Hinderberger, Howard E. Taylor
1981, Spectrochimica Acta Part B: Atomic Spectroscopy (36) 773-783
Use of a modified L'vov Platform and ammonium phosphate as a matrix modifier greatly reduced matrix interferences in a commercial Massmann-type atomic absorption furnace. Platforms were readily fabricated from furnace tubes and, once positioned in the furnace, caused no inconvenience in operation. Two volatile elements (Pb, Cd), two of intermediate...
Some regional costs of a synthetic fuel industry: The case of illinois
E. D. Attanasi, E.K. Green
1981, The Annals of Regional Science (15) 43-52
The Federal Government's efforts to induce development of a coal-based synthetic fuel industry include direct subsidies, tax concessions, and assurances that it will purchase the industry's output, even if above the market price. In this note it is argued that these subsidies will enable this industry to secure a region's...

Physio-chemical and morphological characteristics of avian encephalomyelitis virus
L.H. Gosting, B.W. Grinnell, M. Matsumoto
1980, Veterinary Microbiology (5) 87-100
Avian encephalomyelitis virus (AEV) was purified from infected chick embryos by a gradient centrifugation in cesium chloride. The virus had a buoyant density of 1.31 to 1.32 g/ml and a sedimentation coefficient of 148 S. The purified AEV was resistant to treatments with chloroform, acid pH or trypsin. The presence...
Observations of wing-feather molt and summer feeding ecology of Steller's Eiders at Nelson Lagoon, Alaska
Margaret R. Petersen
1980, Wildfowl (31) 99-106
The population size, moult chronology, food habits, and feeding behaviour of Steller's Eiders Polysticta stelleri were studied at Nelson Lagoon, Alaska from May to October 1977. Sub-adults were flightless from late July to late August and the adult males were flightless from late August to mid September. Adult females were...

Ground-water resources and geology of Washington and Ozaukee Counties, Wisconsin
H. L. Young, W. G. Batten
1980, Wisconsin Geological & Natural History Survey Information Circular 38
Population growth is placing increased demands on water supplies in Washington and Ozaukee Counties. Water from three principal aquifers supplies most municipal, industrial, irrigation, residential, and farm water needs in these counties. These are the sand-and-gravel, Niagara, and sandstone aquifers. As much as 15 gallons per minute can be obtained...
Modern sedimentary facies of the open Pacific coast and Pleistocene analogs from Montery Bay, California

Michael E. Field, et al., editor(s)
1980, Conference Paper, Quaternary depositional environments of the Pacific Coast : Pacific Coast Paleogeography Symposium 4
Depositional processes and sedimentary structures of wave-dominated Pacific coastal environments vary systematically with water depth. The depth-limited open-coast facies identifiable by their sedimentary structures are the inner shelf, barred or nonbarred nearshore, beach, and coastal dune facies. These facies are most commonly preserved in shallowing-upward progradational sequences. The...
