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...
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...

Recent publication of maps at scale 1:1,000,000 of the northeastern equatorial Pacific region showing publicly available information on the nickel plus copper content of manganese nodules has made it possible to outline the prime area between the Clarion and Clipperton fracture zones which has been the focus of several recent...

U.S. Geological Survey core drilling on the Atlantic shelf

1979, Science (206) 515-527
The first broad program of scientific shallow drilling on the U.S. Atlantic continental shelf has delineated rocks of Pleistocene to Late Cretaceous age, including phosphoritic Miocene strata, widespread Eocene carbonate deposits that serve as reflective seismic markers, and several regional unconformities. Two sites, off Maryland and New Jersey, showed light...
Application of a new Raman microprobe spectrometer to nondestructive analysis of sulfate and other ions in individual phases in fluid inclusions in minerals
G.J. Rosasco, E. Roedder
1979, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (43) 1907-1915
Rosascoet al. (1975), reported the first successful application of laser-excited Raman spectroscopy for the identification and nondestructive partial analysis of individual solid, liquid, and gaseous phases in selected fluid inclusions. We report here the results of the application of a new instrument, based on back-scattering, that eliminates many of...
A herringbone bedform pattern of possible Taylor-Görtler type flow origin seen in sonographs
Lawrence J. Toimil, Erk Reimnitz
1979, Sedimentary Geology (22) 219-228
Side-scan sonar records collected in a shallow arctic lagoon (2–2.5 m depth) reveal a herringbone pattern of current-aligned linear reflectors with branching diagonals. The major longitudinal reflectors have no detectable relief (<20 cm), are spaced 5–10 m apart, and may represent current-aligned helical cell boundaries preserved in the silty fine...
An evaluation of the zircon method of isotopic dating in the Southern Arabian Craton
J.A. Cooper, J. S. Stacey, D.G. Stoeser, R.J. Fleck
1979, Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology (68) 429-439
A zircon study has been made on eleven samples of igneous rocks from the Saudi Arabian Craton. Ages of sized and magnetic fractions of zircon concentrates show variable degrees of discordance which seem to result from a very young disturbance that produces linear arrays in the Concordia plot. Model age...

Geologic implications and potential hazards of scour depressions on bering shelf, Alaska
M. C. Larsen, H. Nelson, D.R. Thor

Flat-bottomed depression 50-150 m in diameter and 60-80 cm deep occur in the floor of Norton Sound, Bering Sea. These large erosional bedforms and associated current ripples are found in areas where sediment grain size is 0.063-0.044 mm (4-4.5 ??), speeds of bottom currents are greatest (20-30 cm/s mean speeds...
Regional and local networks of horizontal control, Cerro Prieto geothermal area
B.L. Massey
1979, Geothermics (8) 275-281
The Cerro Prieto geothermal area in the Mexicali Valley 30 km southeast of Mexicali, Baja California, is probably deforming due to (1) the extraction of large volumes of steam and hot water, and (2) active tectonism. Two networks of precise horizontal control were established in Mexicali Valley by the U.S....
