Analysis of street sweepings, Portland, Oregon
Timothy L. Miller, Joseph F. Rinella, Stuart W. McKenzie, Jerry Parmenter
1977, Report
A brief study involving collection and analysis of street sweepings was undertaken to provide the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers with data on physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of dust and dirt accumulating on Portland streets. Most of the analyses selected were based on the pollutant loads predicted by the...
A selected bibliography: Remote sensing applications in geography
W. J. Ripple
1977, Report
The bibliography contains 82 citations of selected publications and technical reports. The references deal with the application of remote sensing techniques to the collection and analysis of geographic data. All of the citations were published between January 1968 and July 1977....
Effects of light intensity and temperature on Cryptomonas ovata (Cryptophyceae) growth and nutrient uptake rates
James E. Cloern
1977, Journal of Phycology (13) 389-395
Specific growth rate of Cryptomonas ovata var. palustris Pringsheim was measured in batch culture at 14 light-temperature combinations. Both the maximum growth rate (μm) and optimum light intensity (Iopt) fit an empirical function that increases exponentially with temperature up to an optimum (Topt), then declines rapidly as temperature exceeds Topt. Incorporation of these functions into Steele's growth equation gives a...
Application of a selenium hydride-atomic absorption technique to test for homogeneity of USGS standard rock
L. P. Greenland, E.Y. Campbell
1977, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (5) 403-404
After acid decomposition of the sample, selenium hydride was generated by means of sodium borohydride, and the gas was swept through a resistance-heated quartz cell mounted in an atomic absorption spectrometer to determine as little as 5 ng/g selenium in 0.25 g rock sample. One-way analyses of variance of data...

Epithermal beryllium deposits in water-laid tuff, western Utah
David A. Lindsey
1977, Economic Geology (72) 219-232
Epithermal beryllium deposits in western Utah have distinctive geological and geochemical associations that provide guides to exploration for new resources of beryllium and associated metals. Beryllium deposits at Spor Mountain and the Honeycomb Hills are uniquely associated with topaz-bearing rhyolite of Late Tertiary age and are restricted to porous water-laid...

Leech parasitism of waterfowl in North America
David L. Trauger, James C. Bartonek
1977, Wildfowl (28) 143-152
Leech parasitism of waterfowl is widespread in North America. Twenty species of ducks, geese, and swans have been infested by leeches, particularly Theromyzon rude and Placobdella ornata. Sites of attachment include the eyes, nasal passages, and body. Information is lacking on the biology and ecology of duck leeches. Their significance...

Spectacular mobility of ash flows around Aniakchak and Fisher calderas, Alaska
T. P. Miller, R.L. Smith
1977, Geology (5) 173-176
Ash flows around Aniakchak and Fisher calderas in the Aleutian volcanic arc show evidence of having flowed over formidable topographic barriers at distances of tens of kilometres from their source. Ash flows swept down glaciated valleys on the south side of Aniakchak caldera, crossed a broad lowland with an altitude...
Structure mapping on enhanced landsat images of Southern Brazil: Tectonic control of mineralization and speculations on metallogeny
Terry W. Offield, E.A. Abbott, A. R Gillespie, S.O. Loguercio
1977, Geophysics (42) 482-500
Computer enhancement, particularly contrast-stretching, reveals a previously unnoticed east-west structural zone across a Landsat image of the southern Brazilian Precambrian shield. In this zone occur the only known economic or near-economic deposits of gold, tin, and copper. Such deposits are typically localized by small east-west structural elements. Non-economic copper occurrences...

Significance of Mesozoic radiolarians from the pre-Nevadan rocks of the southern Klamath Mountains, California
W. P. Irwin, D. L. Jones, E.A. Pessagno Jr.
1977, Geology (5) 557-562
Ribbon cherts and siliceous tuffs of the North Fork and Rattlesnake Creek terranes of the Klamath Mountains yield Mesozoic radiolarians. Rocks of the North Fork terrane were previously considered to be of Paleozoic age and those of the Rattlesnake Creek to be of Paleozoic and Triassic age, on the basis...
