R.W. Harvey, Leonard W. Lion, L.Y. Young, J.O. Leckie
1982, Journal of Marine Research (40) 1201-1211
The particle-laden surface layer (approx 150-370 mu m) and subsurface waters of a South San Francisco Bay salt marsh were sampled over 2 tidal cycles and analyzed for particle numbers and particulate-associated and total concentrations of Pb and bacteria. Laboratory studies examined the ability of a bacterial isolate from the...

Responses of plankton communities to the introduction of grass carp into some Georgia ponds
T.T. Terrell
1982, Journal of Freshwater Ecology (1) 395-406
Net plankton community structure and numbers were studied in soft-water, acidic ponds containing aquatic macrophytes, after introduction of the herbivorous grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella). The plankton communities in ponds with grass carp consisted of significantly fewer individuals, genera, and orders than did the communities in control ponds. Expected shifts...
Pathogenesis of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus in adult sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka)
D.M. Mulcahy, J. Burke, R.J. Pascho, C.K. Jenes
1982, Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences (39) 1144-1149
The concentration of infectious hematopoietic necrosis (IHN) virus was determined in eight organs and two body fluids from each of 60 adult sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka). Included in the sample were 4 males and 56 prespawning, spawning, or spent female fish. All fish were infected, and virus was present in...

The short-tailed Albatross, Diomedea albatrus, its status, distribution and natural history
H. Hasegawa, A.R. DeGange
1982, American Birds (36) 806-814
The Short-tailed Albatross (Diomedea albatrus) is presently an Endangered Species that was formerly abundant in the North Pacific. Owing to the activities of feather hunters operating on the albatross's nesting grounds for a 50-year period in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the species was almost reduced to extinction....
Feeding activity and spawning time of striped bass in the Colorado River Inlet, Lake Powell, Utah
William R. Persons, R.V. Bulkly
1982, North American Journal of Fisheries Management (2) 403-408
Striped bass, Morone saxatilis, from Lake Powell, Utah spawned in or near the mixing zone of the reservoir and the Colorado River in 1980 and 1981. The fish did not move through Cataract Canyon rapids just above the reservoir in either year. Of 321 adult striped bass stomachs examined, 30%...
Gasometer: An inexpensive device for continuous monitoring of dissolved gases and supersaturation
G.R. Bouck
1982, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (111) 505-516
The “gasometer” is a device that measures differential dissolved-gas pressures (δP) in water relative to barometric pressure (as does the “Weiss saturometer”), but operates continuously without human attention. The gasometer can be plumbed into a water-supply system and requires 8 liters/minute of water or more at 60 kilopascals. The...
Effects of temperature on biochemical reactions and drug resistance of virulent and avirulent Aeromonas salmonicida
G.B. Hahnel, R. W. Gould
1982, Journal of Fish Diseases (5) 329-337
Incubation temperatures of 11°, 18° and 28° did not substantially affect biochemical reactions of either virulent or avirulent forms of Aeromonas salmonicida subspecies salmonicida. The only change observed, amygdalin fermentation, was positive at 11° and 18° but negative at 28°C. Several isolates utilized sucrose, a characteristic not normally recognized for...
Reciprocal allopreening in the Brownheaded Nuthatch
D.B. Barbour, A.R. DeGange
1982, The Auk (99) 171-171
In his extensive reviews of allopreening, Harrison (1965, 1969) did not record this behavior for the Sittidae, nor did Kilham (1968, 1972, 1973) mention observing this behavior in either White-breasted (Sitta carolinensis) or Red-breasted (S. canadensis) nuthatches. Norris (1958: 187), however, mentioned the occurrence of allopreening in Brown-headed Nuthatches (S....
Predation on seabirds by red foxes at Shaiak Island, Alaska
Margaret R. Petersen
1982, Canadian Field-Naturalist (96) 41-45
Two Red Foxes (Vulpes fulva) that invaded Shaiak Island before the 1976 nesting season had a marked impact on the nesting success of five of seven species of seabirds breeding on the island that year. Common Eiders (Somateria mollissima), Glaucous-winged Gulls (Larus glaucescens), and Common Murres (Uria aalge), that nest...
Reproduction and early-life accommodations of landlocked alewives to a southern range extension
A.A. Nigro, John J. Ney
1982, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (111) 559-569
Reproduction and first-year growth and food habits of landlocked alewives Alosa pseudoharengus in Claytor Lake, Virginia were examined and compared to descriptions for populations in the species' established New England-Great Lakes range. Alewives in mesothermal (2–27 C) Claytor Lake are shorter-lived (3 years) but grow faster, mature earlier (age 1),...

Epigenetic mineral deposits are universal members of an orderly spatial and temporal arrangement of igneous rocks, endomorphic rocks, and hydrothermally altered rocks. The association and sequence of these rocks is invariant whereas the metric relations and configurations of the properties of these rocks are unlimited in variety. This characterization satisfies...
