Influence of PCBs in water on uptake and elimination of DDT and DDE by lake trout
Robert J. Hesselberg, Lawrence W. Nicholson
1981, Journal of Environmental Quality (10) 315-318
Researchers predicted that several hundred years would be required before DDT (1,1,1 trichloro-2,2-bis [P-chlorophyl] ethane) and its metabolites were likely to decrease to nondetectable levels in Lake Michigan. But following the ban on DDT in 1970, residues of total DDT in Lake Michigan lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) declined rapidly from...
Strains of infectious hematopoietic necrosis (IHN) virus may be identified by structural protein differences
J.C. Leong, Ya Li Hsu, H. Mark Engelking, Daniel M. Mulcahy
D. P. Anderson, editor(s)
1981, Conference Paper, Fish biologics: Serodiagnostics and vaccines (Developments in biological standardization, volume 49)
The development of an effective vaccine to infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) in fish requires a knowledge of the virus serotypes in nature. At least two serotypes were found among three IHNV strains (12). Attempts in our laboratory to extend this study with additional virus strains by classical immunological techniques...
Drug immobilization of walrus (Odobenus rosmarus)
D.P. DeMaster, J.B. Faro, J. A. Estes, James Taggart, C. Zabel
1981, Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences (38) 365-367
Five out of nine walrus (Odobenus rosmarus) were successfully immobilized at Round Island, Alaska, in May of 1978 by combinations of phencyclidine hydrochloride and acepromazine hydrochloride. A crossbow was an effective delivery technique. Walruses that had recently hauled out were more suitable for immobilization than well-rested animals. Care was taken...
Spatial variation in transferrin allele frequencies among herds of feral donkeys in Death Valley National Monument, California
J.G. Blake, C. L. Douglas, L.F. Thompson
1981, Journal of Mammalogy (62) 58-63
Serum proteins were studied to clarify interrelationships of seemingly disjunct herds of feral donkeys (Equus asinus) in the mountains of Death Valley National Monument, California. Sera of 162 donkeys from five localities in the Panamint Mountains were examined by starch-gel electrophoresis to assess polymorphic variation in transferrins. Four homozygous...
Estimating bird damage from damage incidence in wine grape vineyards
R. W. DeHaven, R. L. Hothem
1981, American Journal of Enology and Viticulture (32) 1-4
Bird damage was measured during 1977 and 1978 at 32 wine grape vineyards in the San Joaquin Valley and North Coastal Region of California. Both the percentage bird loss (PBL) and the percentage of bunches damaged (BDI = bird damage incidence) were determined during 55 total-damage assessments, and the resulting...
Eolian features produced by the December 1977 windstorm, southern San Joaquin Valley, California
C. M. Sakamoto-Arnold
1981, Journal of Geology (89) 129-137
High wind velocities during a windstorm in December of 1977 in the southern San Joaquin Valley, California, created eolian features and effects of a magnitude not previously reported in the literature. Three principal mechanisms of sediment movement by wind were studied by examining the size distribution of deposits in telephone...
Historical evidence for discrete stocks of lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) in Lake Michigan
Edward H. Brown Jr., G.W. Eck, N.R. Foster, R.M. Horrall, C.E. Coberly
1981, Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences (38) 1747-1758
Although few biological data exist on the now extinct native lake trout, Salvelinus namaycush, of Lake Michigan, historical records and interviews with former commercial fishermen strongly suggest that this once widespread resource was composed of a number of discrete spawning populations or stocks. A natural division of the resource into distinct...
Whooping crane preyed upon by golden eagle
Ronald M. Windingstad, Harry E. Stiles, Roderick C. Drewien
1981, The Auk (98) 393-394
The Golden Eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) is the largest predatory bird in North America and is well known for its predatory abilities. Attacks have been reported on mammals such as whitetail jackrabbits (Lepus townsendi) (McGahan 1967, J. Wildl. Mgmt. 31: 496), pronghorn antelope (Antilocapra americana) (Bruhns 1970, Can. Field-Natur. 84: 301),...
Water type and suitability of Oklahoma surface waters for public supply and irrigation, Part 3: Canadian, North Canadian, and deep fork river basins through 1979
Jerry D. Stoner
1981, Water-Resources Investigations Report 81-80
Water-quality data through 1979 in the Canadian, North Canadian, and Deep Fork River basins within Oklahoma were examined for water type and suitability for public water supply and irrigation use. Of 105 stations with available data, 47 stations or 45 percent were considered to have sufficient data for analysis. The...
The origin of epigenetic graphite: Evidence from isotopes
P. L. Weis, I. Friedman, J.P. Gleason
1981, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (45) 2325-2332
Stable carbon isotope ratios measured in syngenetic graphite, epigenetic graphite, and graphitic marble suggests that syngenetic graphite forms only by the metamorphism of carbonaceous detritus. Metamorphism of calcareous rocks with carbonaceous detritus is accompanied by an exchange of carbon between the two, which may result in large changes in isotopic...
Determination of tetraalkyllead compounds in gasoline by liquid chromatography-atomic absorption spectrometry
J. D. Messman, T. C. Rains
1981, Analytical Chemistry (53) 1632-1636
A liquid chromatography-atomic absorption spectrometry (LC-AAS) hybrid analytical technique is presented for metal speciation measurements on complex liquid samples. The versatility and inherent metal selectivity of the technique are Illustrated by the rapid determination of five tetraalkyllead compounds in commercial gasoline. Separation of the individual tetraalkyllead species is achieved by...
Objectives, accomplishments, and future plans of IGCP project 143, remote sensing and mineral exploration
W. D. Carter, L. C. Rowan
1981, Advances in Space Research (1) 227-236
The International Geological Correlation Programme (IGCP) is a worldwide cooperative research programme that began in 1974 under the auspices of the International Union of Geological Sciences. Because of the global availability of Earth resources data collected by satellites and the great interest among geologists in taking advantage of these new...
Petrogenesis of garnet two-mica granites in the Ruby Mountains, Nevada
R. W. Kistler, E. D. Ghent, J. R. O’Neil
1981, Journal of Geophysical Research Solid Earth (86) 10591-10606
Garnet-two-mica granites of Jurassic (160 ± 3 m.y.) and Cretaceous (83 ± 1.3 m.y.) ages intrude amphibolite facies metasedimentary rocks of Precambrian age and lower Paleozoic sedimentary rocks in the northern part of the Ruby Mountains, Nevada. High initial 87Sr/86Sr and high values of δ18O for minerals suggest a dominantly sedimentary...
Transverse tectonic boundaries near Kodiak Island, Alaska
M. A. Fisher, T.R. Bruns, Roland E. von Huene
1981, Geological Society of America Bulletin (92) 10-18
Transverse tectonic boundaries exist at the northeast and southwest ends of the Kodiak islands, so that the Aleutian arc-trench system is longitudinally segmented in this area. Evidence for the transverse boundaries includes alignments of such geologic features as offset volcanic lineations, terminations of...
