Salmonid viruses: Double infection of RTG-2 cells with Egtved and infectious pancreatic necrosis viruses
K. Wolf, P. E. Vestergard Jorgensen
1970, Archiv Fur Die Gesamte Virusforschung (29) 337-342
Egtved and infectious pancreatic necrosis (IPN) viruses were applied at high multiplicity alone and in combination to RTG-2 cells in liquid medium. Procedures were used which selectively suppressed one or the other virus, and the yields were determined after 64 hours at 15°C. The viruses showed an increase of 280...

Arsenic in detergents: Possible danger and pollution hazard
E.E. Angino, L.M. Magnuson, T.C. Waugh, O.K. Galle, J. Bredfeldt
1970, Science (168) 389-390
Arsenic at a concentration of 10 to 70 parts per million has been detected in several common presoaks and household detergents. Arsenic values of 2 to 8 parts per billion have been measured in the Kansas River. These concentrations are close to the amount (10 parts per billion) recommended by...
Lunar rock compositions and some interpretations
A.E.J. Engel, C.G. Engel
1970, Science (167) 527-528
Samples of igneous "gabbro," "basalt," and lunar regolith have compositions fundamentally different from all meteorites and terrestrial basalts. The lunar rocks are anhydrous and without ferric iron. Amounts of titanium as high as 7 weight percent suggest either extreme fractionation of lunar rocks or an unexpected solar abundance of titanium....
Major Land Resource Areas (MLRA)
Adapted from U.S. Soil Conservation Service
1970, Report
This is a polygon coverage of the Land Resource Regions and Major Land Resource Areas of the conterminous United States. Land resource regions are geographic areas that are characterized by a particular pattern of soils, climate, water resources and land uses. (USDA, Soil Conservation Service, 1981). Major land...

Thermoluminescence of lunar samples
G. B. Dalrymple, Richard R. Doell
1970, Science (167) 713-715
Appreciable natural thermoluminescence with glow curve peaks at about 350 degrees centigrade for lunar fines and breccias and above 400 degrees centigrade for crystalline rocks has been recognized in lunar samples. Plagioclase has been identified as the principal carrier of thermoluminescence, and the difference in peak temperatures indicates compositional or...
Tektite 1, man-in-the-sea project: Marine Science Program
H.E. Clifton, C.V.W. Mahnken, J. C. Van Derwalker, R.A. Waller
1970, Science (168) 659-663
The Tektite experiment was designed to provide data for a number of behavioral, biomedical, and engineering studies in addition to the marine sciences program. Conditions for some of these studies were not altogether compatible with the program for the marine sciences. For example, isolation imposed by human behavioral studies precluded...
Age of the moon: An isotopic study of uranium-thorium-lead systematics of lunar samples
M. Tatsumoto, J.N. Rosholt
1970, Science (167) 461-463
Concentrations of U, Th, and Pb in Apollo 11 samples studied are low (U. 0.16 to 0.87; Th, 0.53 to 3.4; Pb, 0.29 to 1.7, in ppm) but the extremely radiogenic lead in samples allows radiometric dating. The fine dust and the breccia have a concordant age of 4.66 billion...
Atmospheric collection of debris from the Revelstoke and Allende fireballs
M. H. Carr
1970, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (34) 689-700
In two separate events, Revelstoke and Allende, the air through which a fireball had been observed to pass was sampled for meteoritic debris. Particulate matter was collected on fibrous filters, which were mounted on aircraft and flown downwind from the site of the...
Winds over saltcedar
T. E. A. Van Hylckama
1970, Agricultural Meteorology (7) 217-233
An analysis of hourly wind speeds above and within a stand of saltcedar near Buckeye, Arizona, reveals that in 90% of all observed cases, the wind profiles above the stand can be represented by the simple logarithmic equation: uz=u*k1n">uz=u*k1n (zz0)">zz0) where...
Temperature tolerance of bloater (Coregonus hoyi)
Thomas A. Edsall, Donald V. Rottiers, Edward H. Brown
1970, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (27) 2047-2052
Juvenile and young adult bloaters (Coregonus hoyi) were tested for tolerance to high temperatures. The ultimate upper lethal temperature of juvenile bloaters (26.75 C) appeared to be slightly higher than that of young adult bloaters, but was similar to that of juvenile ciscoes,Coregonus artedii (26.0 C), the only other North American coregonine for...

Young-of-the-year ciscoes (Coregonus artedii) acclimated to 2, 5, 10, 20 and 25 C and tested for tolerance to high and low temperatures provide the first detailed description of the thermal tolerance of coregonids in North America. The upper ultimate lethal temperature of the young ciscoes was 26 C (6 C...

New homes for prairie ducks
Harold A. Doty
1970, Report
This pamphlet describes how to make, install and care for inexpensive duck nesting baskets. Ducks have been attracted to these structures in the prairies of eastern North and South Dakota, western Minnesota, and northern Iowa. Nesting structures can help increase the number of local nesting ducks, especially mallards....
Waterfowl in relation to land use and water levels on the Spring Run Area
Gary L. Krapu, D.R. Parsons, M.W. Weller
1970, Iowa State Journal of Science (44) 437-452
Low water levels during critical phases of the breeding cycle appear to have caused population declines of waterfowl and other marsh birds on the Spring Run Game Management Area. Pair-counts indicated a decline from 70 pairs of waterfowl in 1965 to 2 pairs in 1968. Nest success of upland nesting...

Both an accelerator and a 252Cf neutron source have been used to induce characteristic gamma radiation from extended soil samples. To demonstrate the method, measurements of the neutron-induced radiative capture and activation gamma rays have been made with both Ge(Li) and NaI(Tl) detectors, Because...

The Television Experiment objectives are to provide imaging data which will complement previously gathered data and extend our knowledge of Mars. The two types of investigations will be fixed-feature (for mapping) and variable-feature (for surface and atmospheric changes). Two cameras with a factor-of-ten difference in resolution will be used on...
