Interpretation, compilation and field verification procedures in the CARETS project
Robert H. Alexander, Peter W. De Forth, Katherine A. Fitzpatrick, Harry F. Lins, Herbert K. McGinty III
1975, Final Report Volume 5
The production of the CARETS map data base involved the development of a series of procedures for interpreting, compiling, and verifying data obtained from remote sensor sources. Level II land use mapping from high-altitude aircraft photography at a scale of 1:100,000 required production of a photomosaic mapping base for each...
National Cartographic Information Center Newsletter No. 3
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1975, Newsletter 3
Bill Overstreet, this year's president of the American Congress on Surveying and Mapping, wrote us a brief note of guidance after the first issue of the NCIC Newsletter. In it, he cautioned us, among other things, not to get tied down to a strict publishing schedule. "Publish as information becomes...
National Cartographic Information Center Newsletter No. 2
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1975, Newsletter 2
The publication of this issue has been delayed due to the siren call of annual leave and the general inertia produced by the langorous, if pollution-ridden stillness of deep summer in Northern Virginia. We are introducing a new, more artistic cover design with this issue, courtesy of the Geological Survey's...
Feeding behavior and temperature and light tolerance of Mysis relicta in the laboratory
G.M. DeGraeve, James B. Reynolds
1975, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (104) 394-397
Live specimens of Mysis relicta from Lake Michigan were held for one year in the laboratory to determine feeding behavior and tolerance to light and temperature. Mysids fed by moving with rapid, horizontal jerking motions toward food as it settled toward the bottom and by swimming slowly, upside down, to...

Norfolk and environs: A land use perspective
Robert H. Alexander, Peter J. Buzzanell, Katherine A. Fitzpatrick, Harry F. Lins, Herbert K. McGinty III
1975, Final Report Volume 2, Part A
The Norfolk-Portsmouth Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (SMSA) in southeastern Virginia was the site of intensive testing of a number of land resources assessment methods, built around the availability of remotely sensed data from the Earth Resources Technology Satellite (ERTS-I), later renamed LANDSAT I. The Norfolk tests were part of a...

Polypodium sp. (Coelenterata) infection of paddlefish (Polyodon spathula) eggs
V. Charles Suppes, Fred P. Meyer
1975, Journal of Parasitology (61) 772-775
Parasitism of fish by coelenterates is rare and the first North American infection was reported in sturgeon (Hoffman et al., 1974, J Parasitol 60: 548-550). In the USSR parasitism of sturgeon (Acipenser sp.) eggs by the coelenterate Polypodium hydriforme Ussov 1885 has long been reported and investigated [Raikova, 1959, in...
Flood hazards in the Seattle-Tacoma urban complex and adjacent areas, Washington
B. L. Foxworthy, E.G. Nassar
1975, Report
Floods are natural hazards that have complicated man's land-use planning for as long as we have had a history. Although flood hzards are a continuing danger, the year-to-year threat cannot be accurately predicted. Also, on any one stream, the time since the last destructive flood might be so long that...
Potentiometric surface of the Lloyd aquifer on Long Island, New York, in January 1975
Charles A. Rich, Keith R. Prince, Anthony G. Spinello
1975, Report
A map showing the potentiometric surface of the Lloyd aquifer was drawn from water-level measurements made in January 1975. Altitude of the potentiometric surface ranged from more than 20 feet below mean sea level in Queens County to more than 40 feet above mean sea level in Suffolk County....

The orthoenstatite to clinoenstatite transformation by shearing and reversion by annealing: Mechanism and potential applications
R. S. Coe, Stephen H. Kirby
1975, Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology (52) 29-55
Clinoenstatite (CE) was produced by deforming single-crystal specimens of ortho-enstatite (OE) in several different sorta of experiments. Examination with light and trans-mission electron microscopes shows that the transformation is coherent and involves a macroscopic shear on (100) [001] through an angle of 12.8±1.3 °, in good...
