Prediction monitoring and evaluation program; a progress report

1978, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (10) 93-96
Can your friend's relative really predict earthquakes? Or how about that fellow in the mountains who has always liked geology, does he have the answer to the "when" of earthquakes? And if these people do actually predict an earthquake, is it a lucky guess or are they tuned in to...
Determination of dissolved boron in fresh, estuarine, and geothermal waters by d.c. argon-plasma emission spectrometry
J.W. Ball, J. M. Thompson, Everett A. Jenne
1978, Analytica Chimica Acta (98) 67-75
A d.c. argon-plasma emission spectrometer is used to determine dissolved boron in natural (fresh and estuarine) water samples. Concentrations ranged from 0.02 to 250 mg l-1. The emission—concentration function is linear from 0.02 to 1000 mg l-1. Achievement of a relative standard deviation of ⩽ 3% requires frequent restandardization to...
Aspects of raccoon (Procyon lotor) social organization
E.K. Fritzell
1978, Canadian Journal of Zoology (56) 260-271
Spatial and temporal relationships among members of a raccoon (Procyon lotor) population were studied during spring and summer in east-central North Dakota during 1973–1975. Radio telemetry was used to locate 48 raccoons 6443 times. Livetrapping results and other observations suggested that most raccoons in the area were radio equipped; densities...
Habitat use by prairie raccoons during the waterfowl breeding season
E.K. Fritzell
1978, Journal of Wildlife Management (42) 118-127
Mobility and habitat use of raccoons (Procyon lotor) in an intensively farmed area of the prairie pothole region were studied during the waterfowl breeding seasons (April-July) of 1973-75. Over 5700 locations of 30 raccoons were analyzed. Movement patterns varied with sex, age, and reproductive status. Adult males moved regularly throughout...
Changes in submerged aquatic macrophyte populations at the head of Chesapeake Bay, 1958-1975
S. Bayley, Vernon D. Stotts, P. F. Springer, J. Steenis
1978, Estuaries (1) 171-182
Submerged aquatic plant populations in the Susquehanna Flats of the Chesapeake Bay were followed for 18 years. An exotic species, eurasian water milfoil, Myriophyllum spicatum, increased dramatically from 1958 to 1962; at the same time the dominant native species declined. After 1962, milfoil populations declined and the native rooted aquatics...

A high-frequency sonar for profiling small-scale subaqueous bedforms
J.R. Dingler, J.C. Boylls, R.L. Lowe
1977, Marine Geology (24) 279-288
A high-resolution ultrasonic profiler has been developed which permits both laboratory and field studies of small-scale subaqueous bedforms. The device uses a 2.5-cm diameter piezoelectric ceramic crystal pulsed at a frequency of 4.5 MHz to obtain vertical accuracy and resolution of at least 1 mm. Compared to other small-scale profiling...

Studies on the protein and sulfur amino acid requirements of young Bobwhite quail
John A. Serafin
1977, Poultry Science (56) 577-585
Four experiments were conducted with purified diets to examine the influence of protein level and to estimate the sulfur amino acid (S.A.A.) requirement of young Bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus). These studies demonstrated (I) that 26% protein was sufficient for rapid growth when the diet was supplemented with methionine; (2) that...
Field expectations and the determination of wildcat drilling
Emil D. Attanasi, L. J. Drew
1977, Southern Economic Journal (44) 53-67
There is currently some dissatisfaction with macroeconomic approaches to modeling the supply of domestic crude oil. One problem that has been pointed out is that the estimated supply responses of new discoveries brought about by price increases appear to be unrealistically high. Because data frequently used in these models are...
