A review of advances in the study of diseases of fish: 1954-1964
G. Post
1965, Progressive Fish-Culturist (27) 3-12
STUDY OF DISEASE IN ANIMALS, INCLUDING MAN, has progressed rapidly in the past decade. Looking back, we find amazing success in the study of man's diseases and possibly only a little less success in studies of diseases of domesticated homeothermic animals. We who are interested in the poikilothermic animals may feel...
Eimeria aurati n. sp. (Protozoa:Eimeriidae) from goldfish (Carassius auratus) in North America
G. L. Hoffman
1965, Journal of Protozoology (12) 273-275
Eimeria aurati n. sp. is described from the intestine of the goldfish, Carassius auratus, from Pennsylvania, U.S.A. Oocysts were very numerous in long, whitish, opaque fecal casts. They were 16 to 24 by 14 to 17 μ (mean, 20.1 by 16.3) and were non-sporulated when passed but sporulated 2 to 5 days...

Distribution of fishes in U. S. streams tributary to Lake Superior
Harry H. Moore, Robert A. Braem
1965, Special Scientific Report - Fisheries 516
Experimental sea lamprey control by the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries on Lake Superior streams provided many new distributional records of the fish fauna. Seventy-one species were recorded from 175 streams. Specimens were collected at the electromechanical barriers, with electric shockers, with fyke nets, and during chemical treatment of streams. Maps...

M. Tatsumoto, C. E. Hedge, A.E.J. Engel
1965, Science (150) 886-888
The average concentrations of potassium, rubidium, strontium, thorium, and uranium in oceanic tholeiitic basalt are (in parts per million) K, 1400; Rb, 1.2;...
Alkali content of alpine ultramafic rocks
W. Hamilton, W. Mountjoy
1965, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (29) 661-671
The lower limit of abundance of sodium and potassium in ultramafic rocks is less than the threshold amount detectable by conventional analytical methods. By a dilutionaddition modification of the flame-spectrophotometric method, sodium and potassium have been determined in 40 specimens of alpine ultramafic...
Glass electrode determination of sodium in closed basin waters
A.H. Truesdell, B.F. Jones, A. S. Van Denburgh
1965, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (29) 725-736
Because of its direct relation to total dissolved solids content, sodium concentration is the most useful single hydrochemical parameter of closed basin waters in the western United States. Therefore, it is advantageous to have a rapid method for sodium determination which could be...
A new Rosalina (foraminifera) parasitic on a bivalve
R. Todd
1965, Deep-Sea Research and Oceanographic Abstracts (12)
In a collection of pelecypods from deep water off the west coast of Africa, several specimens of a new species of the foraminifer, Rosalina, are attached to the umbonal area of the bivalve. In addition, numerous attachment scars are observed on the exterior...
Solution of rocks and refractory minerals by acids at high temperatures and pressures. Determination of silica after decomposition with hydrofluoric acid
I. May, J.J. Rowe
1965, Analytica Chimica Acta (33) 648-654
A modified Morey bomb was designed which contains a removable nichromecased 3.5-ml platinium crucible. This bomb is particularly useful for decompositions of refractory samples for micro- and semimicro-analysis. Temperatures of 400–450° and pressures estimated as great as 6000 p.s.i. were maintained in the bomb for...
Eocene and miocene rocks off the northeastern coast of the United States
T. G. Gibson
1965, Deep-Sea Research and Oceanographic Abstracts (12)
A grab sample from a depth of 1675 m at a point south of Cape Cod contains early Eocene planktonic Foraminifera and is correlated with the Globorotalia rex zone of Trinidad. The assemblage indicates a depth comparable to that existing today. Regional relations suggest that the Cretaceous and Eocene deposits deepen...
Servo-amplifiers for ion current measurement in mass spectrometry
J. S. Stacey, R.D. Russell, F. Kollar
1965, Journal of Scientific Instruments (42) 390-394
A servo-voltmeter can provide a useful alternative to the d.c. amplifier or vibrating reed electrometer for the accurate measurement of mass spectrometer ion currents, and has some advantages which recommend its use in certain applications. A generalized analysis based on servomechanism theory is presented as an aid for understanding the...
Vacuum-jacketed hydrofluoric acid solution calorimeter
R. A. Robie
1965, Review of Scientific Instruments (36) 484-486
A vacuum‐jacketed metal calorimeter for determining heats of solution in aqueous HF was constructed. The reaction vessel was made of copper and was heavily gold plated. The calorimeter has a cooling constant of 0.6 cal‐deg−1‐min−1, approximately ¼ that of the air‐jacketed calorimeters most commonly used with HF. It reaches equilibrium within 10 min after turning off the heater current. Measurements...
The binary system K2SO4CaSO4
J.J. Rowe, G.W. Morey, I.D. Hansen
1965, Journal of Inorganic and Nuclear Chemistry (27) 53-58
The binary system K2SO4CaSO4 was studied by means of heating-cooling curves, differential thermal analysis, high-temperature quenching technique and by means of a heating stage mounted on an X-ray diffractometer. Compositions and quench products were identified optically and by X-ray. Limited solid solution of CaSO4 in...
Geochemistry of Birch Creek, Inyo County, California a travertine depositing creek in an arid climate
I. Barnes
1965, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (29) 85-112
A small stream in eastern California was studied in detail to determine the causes of travertine deposition from the stream. Although the ground water feeding the stream is slightly supersaturated to just saturated with calcite, the ground water is supersaturated with CO2 with respect...
Natural recharge and localization of fresh ground water in Kuwait
R.E. Bergstrom, R.E. Aten
1965, Journal of Hydrology (2) 213-231
Fresh ground water (200 parts per million total dissolved solids and upwards) occurs in portions of Pleistocene sandstone aquifers beneath basins and wadis in north Kuwait where the mean rainfall is about five inches per year. The fresh water is surrounded and underlain by brackish water (> 4000 ppm TDS)....

William R. Dryer, Leo F. Erkkila, Clifford L. Tetzloff
1965, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (94) 169-176
Stomachs were examined from 1,492 lake trout and 83 siscowets collected from Lake Superior. Data are given on the food of lake trout of legal size (17 inches or longer) by year, season, and depth of water, and on the relation between food and size among smaller lake trout. Fish...
Length-weight relationship of northern pike, Esox lucius, from East Harbor, Ohio
Edward H. Brown Jr., Clarence F. Clark
1965, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (94) 404-405
The northern pike is one of Ohio's largest game fish but is well known to comparatively few anglers. Large numbers of the big fish spawn in the Ohio marshes adjacent to Lake Erie. Movements related to spawning reach a peak in late March or early April. Later the spawning population...
Movements of hatchery-reared lake trout in Lake Superior
Richard L. Pycha, William R. Dryer, George R. King
1965, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (22) 999-1024
The history of stocking of lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) in the Great Lakes is reviewed. The study of movements is based on capture of 24,275 fin-clipped lake trout taken in experimental gill nets and trawls and commercial gill nets. Yearling lake trout planted from shore dispersed to 15-fath (27-m) depths...
A method for estimating fall adult sex ratios from production and survival data
Howard M. Wight, Robert G. Heath, A. D. Geis
1965, Journal of Wildlife Management (29) 185-192
This paper presents a method of utilizing data relating to the production and survival of a bird population to estimate a basic fall adult sex ratio. This basic adult sex ratio is an average value derived from average production and survival rates. It is an estimate of the average sex...
Results of woodcock wing collections, 1959 to 1962
F.W. Martin, A. D. Geis, William H. Stickel
1965, Journal of Wildlife Management (29) 121-131
During hunting seasons from 1959 to 1962, age and sex determined from 45,444 wings were used to measure annual productivity of woodcocks (Philohela minor). Age of birds was determined by pattern and color of secondaries and by wear on primaries. Sex was determined by width and length of primaries. Overall...
