Radial particle-size segregation during packing of particulates into cylindrical containers
C.D. Ripple, R.V. James, J. Rubin
1973, Powder Technology (8) 165-175
In a series of experiments, soil materials were placed in long cylindrical containers, using various packing procedures. Soil columns produced by deposition and simultaneous vibratory compaction were dense and axially uniform, but showed significant radial segregation of particle sizes. Similar results were obtained with deposition and simultaneous impact-type compaction when...

Radiochemical monitoring of water after the Cannikin event, Amchitka Island, Alaska, July 1972
Wilbur C. Ballance, L.J. Schroder
1973, Report
The U.S. Geological Survey established a sampling program on Amchitka Island in 1967 in cooperation with the U.S . Atomic Energy Commission. Water samples are analyzed routinely for tritium, gross alpha, and gross beta/gamma content, Frequency of sampling was semiannually prior to Cannikin and has been bimonthly since the Cannikin...
Annual compilation and analysis of hydrologic data for urban studies in the Austin, Texas Metropolitan Area, 1971
F.H. Tovar
1973, Report
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Texas Water Development Board, began hydrologic studies in the Austin urban area in 1954. The objectives of this project are as follows: 1. To determine the effects of progressive urbanization on infiltration, rates of peak discharge, and rainfall-runoff...

Fish viruses: Buffers and methods for plaquing eight agents under normal atmosphere
K. Wolf, M. C. Quimby
1973, Applied Microbiology (25) 659-664
A universal procedure was sought for plaque assay of eight fish viruses (bluegill myxovirus, channel catfish virus, eel virus, Egtved virus, infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus, infectious pancreatic necrosis virus, lymphocystis virus, and the agent of spring viremia of carp (Rhabdovirus carpio), in dish cultures of various fish cells. Eagle minimal...

River channel change with time : An example
Luna Bergere Leopold
1973, Geological Society of America Bulletin (84) 1845-1860
Monumented channel cross sections were resurveyed over a period of 20 yrs (1953 to 1972) to determine the amount and kind of change of channel area and position on a 3.7-sq-mi basin, Watts Branch near Rockville, Maryland. For the first 12 yrs, the channel progressively but slowly became smaller as...
Drought displaced movement of North American pintails into Siberia
Charles J. Henny
1973, Journal of Wildlife Management (37) 23-29
During the years 1954-70, 230 pintails (Anas acuta) banded in North America were reported from eastern Asia, primarily Siberia. Most of the birds were shot on the breeding grounds in May. The movement into eastern Asia of pintails banded in the interior of North America was directly correlated with the...

Radiochemical monitoring of water after the Cannikin event, Amchitka Island, Alaska, October 1972
L.J. Schroder, Wilbur C. Ballance
1973, Report
The U.S. Geological Survey collected water samples from Arnchitka Island, Alaska, during October 1972. Tritium determinations were made on all samples collected and gross alpha and gross beta/gamma determinations were made on 41 samples. The gross alpha and gross beta determinations when compared with previously determined ranges for fresh waters...
Summary of chemical and radiochemical monitoring of water for the Cannikin event, Amchitka Island, Alaska, fiscal year 1972
L.J. Schroder, Wilbur C. Ballance
1973, Report
An increased dissolved-solids content was found immediately after the Cannikin event (November 6, 1971) at most of 10 locations in a water-sampling network established in 1967 and revised in September 1971. The observed dissolved-solids content increase was within the seasonal range that has been observed at these locations. No measurable increase...
Hydraulic tests in hole UAe-3, Amchitka Island, Alaska
Wilbur C. Ballance
1973, Report
Inflatable straddle packers were used to isolate and test selected intervals in hole UAe-3. Packer seats were poor in the uncased part of the hole because of unstable wall conditions, and leakage around packers occurred during some tests. However, leakage generally was slight, as shown on pressure-gage charts, and had...

Determination of gold in phosphates by activation analysis using epithermal neutrons
Jack J. Rowe
1973, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (1) 79-80
A simple method is described for determining gold in phosphates and phosphatic materials. Samples in a cadmium container are irradiated with epithermal neutrons to minimize the formation of 32 P, while permitting the formation of adequate amounts of 198 Au. Fire assay-radiochemical methods are used to separate the 198 Au. Concentrations as low...
