[Book review] Politics and water resources
Luna Bergere Leopold
1964, Science (144) 402-403
Arizona is a state in which development has proceeded sufficiently rapidly relative to the available water supply that its water problems are as acute as those of nearly any other state in the Union. Owing to the fact that, in the past, the principal use of water was for irrigation,...

Fluvial processes in geomorphology
Luna Bergere Leopold, M. Gordon Wolman, John P. Miller
1964, Book
This excellent text is a pioneering work in the study of landform development under processes associated with running water. Its primary emphasis is on subjects that were the focus of the authors' studies in both field and laboratory. Part I deals with the process of change in the evolving landscape....
Chemical characteristics of south-central Lake Huron
Herbert E. Allen
1964, Conference Paper, Proceedings of the 8th Conference on Great Lakes Research
Water samples were collected for chemical analysis during eight cruises of the U.S. Bureau of Commercial Fisheries M/V CISCO in south-central Lake Huron in June-October 1956. Temperature, pH, conductivity, and the concentrations of Na+, K+, Ca++, C1-, SO4-, SiO2, and dissolved oxygen were determined for 233 samples from stations at...
Age, growth, sex ratio, and maturity of the whitefish in central Green Bay and adjacent waters of Lake Michigan
Donald Mraz
1964, Fishery Bulletin of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (63) 619-634
This study is based on 1,023 whitefish, Coregonus clupeaformis (Mitchill)--819 in seven samples from five localitites in central Green Bay in 1948-49 and 1851-52 and 204 in a single 1948 collection from northwestern Lake Michigan proper. Records of age indicated unusual strength for only one year class--1943 which strongly dominated...

Minor-element composition and organic carbon content of marine and nonmarine shales of Late Cretaceous age in the western interior of the United States
H. A. Tourtelot
1964, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (28) 1579-1604
The composition of nonmarine shales of Cretaceous age that contain less than 1 per cent organic carbon is assumed to represent the inherited minor-element composition of clayey sediments delivered to the Cretaceous sea that occupied the western interior region of North America. Differences in minor-element content between these samples and...
Catalytic determination of vanadium in water
M. J. Fishman, M. W. Skougstad
1964, Analytical Chemistry (36) 1643-1646
A kinetic determination of V(V) as a catalyst was spectrophotometrically performed by using the indicator reaction of Gallamine blue (GB+) and bromate at pH 2.0. The reaction was followed by measuring absorbance change for a fixed-time of 3 min at 537 nm. The variables such as reagent...
Submicroscopic spherules and color of tektites
A. N. Thorpe, F. E. Senftle
1964, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (28)
Magnetic susceptibility measurements of 18 tektites from various strewn fields have been made as a function of temperature from 77°K to room temperature. A relatively large temperature-independent component of the magnetic susceptibility was observed in all cases, and an analysis of the data...
Origin of high-alumina basalt, andesite, and dacite magmas
W. Hamilton
1964, Science (146) 635-637
The typical volcanic rocks of most island arcs and eugeosynclines, and of some continental environments, are basalt, andesite, and dacite, of high alumina content. The high-alumina basalt differs from tholeiitic basalt primarily in having a greater content of the components of calcic plagioclase. Laboratory data indicate that in the upper...

Water in the world
Luna Bergere Leopold
1964, The UNESCO Courier (17) 11-13
The earth, Including Its oceans and atmosphere, ls a giant distillation system whose operation brings about the distribution of fresh water throughout the world, from the frozen wastes of polar regions to the burning equatorial deserts. Stated in the simplest terms, distillation, condensation and liquid flow are the elemental processes...
Ground-water data, Sevier Desert, Utah

1964, Utah Basic-Data Report 9
This report is intended to serve two purposes: (1) to make available to the public basic ground-water data useful in planning and studying development of water resources, and (2) to supplement an interpretive report that will be published later.Records were collected during the period 1935-64 by the U.S. Geological survey...

Studies of pre-Selma Cretaceous core samples from the outcrop area in western Alabama
Watson Hiner Monroe, Richard E. Bergenback, Norman F. Sohl, Esther R. Applin, Estella B. Leopold, Helen M. Pakiser, Louis C. Conant
1964, Bulletin 1160
In 1954 four core holes were drilled in the pre-Selma Cretaceous strata of the Alabama Coastal Plain in order to get unweathered samples within a few miles of the outcrops. During the next few years several specialists studied the cores, and their reports are published as consecutive parts of this...

Potassium-argon and lead-alpha ages of plutonic rocks, Bokan Mountain area, Alaska
M. A. Lanphere, E.M. MacKevett Jr., T. W. Stern
1964, Science (145) 705-707
Most of the granitic rocks in the Bokan Mountain area, southeastern Alaska, are early Paleozoic (probably Ordovician) judged by potassium-argon and lead-alpha age measurements. The Bokan Mountain Granite, the youngest intrusive unit in the area, belongs to a Mesozoic plutonic episode. These age measurements are the first direct evidence for...
