Excretion of the lampricide Bayer 73 by rainbow trout
J. L. Allen, V. K. Dawson, J. B. Hunn
L. L. Marking, R. A. Kimerle, editor(s)
1979, Conference Paper, Aquatic toxicology: Proceedings of the second annual symposium on aquatic toxicology
Urinary excretion of the 2-aminoethanol salt of 2′, 5-dichloro-4′-nitrosalicylanilide (Bayer 73) in rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) was measured after exposure of the trout to Bayer 73 and also after intraperitoneal (ip) injection of the lampricide. Fish exposed to 0.05 mg/litre of Bayer 73 for 12 h quickly began to excrete...

Modeling sandhill crane population dynamics
Douglas H. Johnson
1979, Special Scientific Report - Wildlife 222
The impact of sport hunting on the Central Flyway population of sandhill cranes (Grus canadensis) has been a subject of controversy for several years. A recent study (Buller 1979) presented new and important information on sandhill crane population dynamics. The present report is intended to incorporate that and other information...

Barometric fluctuations in wells tapping deep unconfined aquifers
Edwin P. Weeks
1979, Water Resources Research (15) 1167-1176
Water levels in wells screened only below the water table in unconfined aquifers fluctuate in response to atmospheric pressure changes. These fluctuations occur because the materials composing the unsaturated zone resist air movement and have capacity to store air with a change in pressure. Consequently, the translation of any pressure...
Annotated list of the fishes of the Lake Ontario watershed
Edwin J. Crossman, Harry D. Van Meter
1979, Technical Report 36
This annotated list of the fishes of Lake Ontario and its watershed is based on published distribution records, museum collections, and reports of fish surveys that confirm the occurrence of fish species dating back to the 1850's. It includes 130 forms (129 spp. + the hybrid splake), 20 of which...
Quantitative variation and the ecological role of vulpinic acid and atranorin in thallus of Letharia vulpina
Nathan L. Stephenson, Philip W. Rundel
1979, Biochemical Systematics and Ecology (7) 263-267
High pressure liquid chromatography was used to determine concentrations of vulpinic acid and atranorin in the thaullus of Letharia vulpina. Vulpinic acid concentration is lowest in the old basal branches of the thallus and increases toward the young branch tips, whereas the reverse is true for atranorin. The suggested role of...

Population differentiation along a flood frequency gradient: Physiological adaptations to flooding in Nyssa sylvatica
Jon E. Keeley
1979, Ecological Monographs (49) 89-108
Throughout the southeastern United States the hardwood Nyssa sylvatica (sensu lato) is distributed along a soil moisture gradient from upland sites, which are never flooded, to floodplains, which are periodically flooded and drained to permanently flooded swamps. Population differentiation with respect to flood tolerance and related physiological attributes was investigated...
Basic magnetic properties of bituminous coal
C.C. Alexander, A. N. Thorpe, F. E. Senftle
1979, Fuel (58) 857-863
Magnetic susceptibility and other static magnetic parameters have been measured on a number of bituminous coals from various locations in the United States. The paramagnetic Curie constant correlates negatively with carbon concentration on a moisture-free basis. The major contribution to the total paramagnetism comes from the mineral matter rather than...
Major geochemical processes in the evolution of carbonate-Aquifer systems
B.B. Hanshaw, W. Back
1979, Journal of Hydrology (43) 287-312
As a result of recent advances by carbonate petrologists and geochemists, hydrologists are provided with new insights into the origin and explanation of many aquifer characteristics and hydrologic phenomena. Some major advances include the recognition that: (1) most carbonate sediments are of biological origin; (2) they have a strong bimodal...
Uranium mobility during interaction of rhyolitic obsidian, perlite and felsite with alkaline carbonate solution: T = 120° C, P = 210 kg/cm2
Robert A. Zielinski
1979, Chemical Geology (27) 47-63
Well-characterized samples of rhyolitic obsidian, perlite and felsite from a single lava flow are leached of U by alkaline oxidizing solutions under open-system conditions. Pressure, temperature, flow rate and solution composition are held constant in order to evaluate the relative importance of differences in surface area and crystallinity. Under the...
Determination of the optimum-size californium-252 neutron source for borehole capture gamma-ray analysis
F. E. Senftle, R.J. Macy, J.L. Mikesell
1979, Nuclear Instruments and Methods (158) 293-302
The fast- and thermal-neutron fluence rates from a 3.7 ??g 252Cf neutron source in a simulated borehole have been measured as a function of the source-to-detector distance using air, water, coal, iron ore-concrete mix, and dry sand as borehole media. Gamma-ray intensity measurements were made for specific spectral lines at...
