Hydrologic and geologic data from the Upper East Coast Planning Area, southeast Florida
Wesley L. Miller
1979, Open-File Report 79-1543
The Upper East Coast Planning Area, one of five designated planning areas in the South Florida Water Management District, consists of St. Lucie, Martin, and eastern Okeechobee Counties. Existing hydrologic and geologic data have been compiled as a base for additional investigations to determine the water-bearing characteristics of the shallow...
Lakes of Oregon, Volume 6: Douglas County
Joseph F. Rinella
1979, Report
An inventory of lakes and reservoirs in Oregon is useful in evaluating the surface-water supply of the State and in providing answers to questions about Oregon's lakes. Much of the information on lakes and reservoirs previously collected by Federal and State agencies has never been published. Those data were compiled...

Nonparametric estimation of population density for line transect sampling using FOURIER series
B.R. Crain, K.P. Burnham, David R. Anderson, J.L. Lake
1979, Biometrical Journal (21) 731-748
A nonparametric, robust density estimation method is explored for the analysis of right-angle distances from a transect line to the objects sighted. The method is based on the FOURIER series expansion of a probability density function over an interval. With only mild assumptions, a general population density estimator of wide...

The use of habitat structure preferenda for establishing flow regimes necessary for maintenance of fish habitat
Clair B. Stalnaker
1979, Book chapter, The Ecology of Regulated Streams
The pursuit of simplicity in the complex management of instream and out-of-stream water uses very early led to the minimum, or “base,” flow concept and the myth that a consistent methodology could be used to establish the desired minimum flow. Such a single flow value has not proven to be...

Digital image processing system For Landsat 3
George Harris Jr.
1979, Conference Paper, Proceedings volume 0183, Space Optics II
The Department of Interior (DOI) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have entered into a joint program to provide a digital image processing system in support of the Landsat 3 mission. NASA will provide the data reception and pre-processing facilities, while the DOI provides the production image processing...

Effects of aldrin exposure on snow geese in Texas rice fields
Edward L. Flickinger
1979, Journal of Wildlife Management (43) 94-101
In 1972 and 1974, 112 dead or moribund snow geese (Chen c. caerulescens), mostly immature white-phase males, were found in a study area on the Garwood Prairie, Texas. Dying geese were observed within 2 days after rice fields planted with aldrin-treated seed were flooded by heavy tains6n 21 March 1972...
Primary feather molt of adult mourning doves in North and South Carolina
G.H. Haas, S.R. Amend
1979, Journal of Wildlife Management (43) 202-207
Examination of 8,141 adult mourning doves (Zenaida macroura) in North and South Carolina revealed that substantial numbers complete primary feather molt in September. Adult mourning doves shed primaries at the rate of 1 per 14 days. No difference was found in this rate between sexes or among years, 1969-74. The...
Contributions to the mammalogy of Chile
Ronald H. Pine, Sterling D. Miller, Mel L. Schamberger
1979, Mammalia (43) 339-376
Collections of mammals were made during more than three years of biological investigations in Chile sponsored by the Corporación Nacional Forestal under the aegis of the Peace Corps (Smithsonian Environmental Program). Genera and species hitherto unreported for that country were taken and many useful data concerning distributional patterns of...
An improved method of censusing deer in deciduous-coniferous forests
T.J. Floyd, L.D. Mech, M.E. Nelson
1979, The Journal of Wildlife Management (43) 258-261
Aerial censusing has been used to determine densities of many large mammals, including deer (Odocoileus virginianus) in agricultural areas or deciduous forests (Saugstad 1942, Morse 1946, Petrides 1953, Sanderson 1953, Berner pers. comm.). However, observability of deer from the air remains a problem in northern coniferous forests. LeResche and...

Line transect estimation of population size: the exponential case with grouped data
David R. Anderson, K.P. Burnham, B.R. Crain
1979, Communications in Statistics - Theory and Methods (8) 487-507
Gates, Marshall, and Olson (1968) investigated the line transect method of estimating grouse population densities in the case where sighting probabilities are exponential. This work is followed by a simulation study in Gates (1969). A general overview of line transect analysis is presented by Burnham and Anderson (1976). These articles...
