Some effects of pollutants in terrestrial ecosystems
W. H. Stickel
A.D. McIntyre, C.F. Mills, editor(s)
1975, Book chapter, Ecological Toxicology Research: Effects of Heavy Metal and Organohalogen Compounds: Proceedings of a NATO Science Committee Conference
Summary: Pollutants tend to simplify plant and animal communities by causing a progressive loss of species. At the extreme, this leads to erosion and loss of soil fertility. Weedy, broadly adapted species increase. Among animals, carnivorous species and groups are often the first to suffer. This is...
Distribution and density of bird species hazardous to aircraft
C.S. Robbins
Sidney A. Gauthreaux Jr., editor(s)
1975, Book chapter, Proceedings of a Conference on the Biological Aspects of the Bird/Aircraft Collision Problem
Only in the past 5 years has it become feasible to map the relative abundance of North American birds. Two programs presently under way and a third that is in the experimental phase are making possible the up-to-date mapping of abundance as well as distribution. A fourth program that has...
The status of the wolf in the United States, 1973
L.D. Mech, R.A. Rausch
D.H. Pimlott, editor(s)

A.B.A. Checklist: Birds of Continental United States and Canada
C.S. Robbins, W. Harrison, G.S. Keith, R.G. McCaskie, R.T. Peterson, N. Pettingell, O.S. Pettingell Jr., A. Small, R.W. Smart, J.A. Tucker
1975, Book
The purpose of this Checklist is to provide a complete up-to-date list of the bird species that have been recorded in the 49 continental United States and Canada. This list includes the native North American breeding species, the regular visitors, the accidentals from other countries that are believed to...
Linkage effects between deposit discovery and postdiscovery exploratory drilling
Lawrence J. Drew
1975, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (3) 169-179
For the 1950-71 period of petroleum exploration in the Powder River Basin, northeastern Wyoming and southeastern Montana, three specific topics were investigated. First, the wildcat wells drilled during the ambient phases of exploration are estimated to have discovered 2.80 times as much petroleum per well as the wildcat wells drilled...
K-Ar ages of plutonic rocks in the Lassiter Coast area, Antarctica
Harald H. Mehnert, Peter D. Rowley, Dwight L. Schmidt
1975, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (3) 233-236
Numerous middle Cretaceous stocks and small batholiths intruded Middle and Upper Jurassic sedimentary and volcanic rocks in the Lassiter Coast area of the southern Antarctic Peninsula. To establish the age of the quartz diorite and granodiorite plutonic events, five plutons were dated by the K-Ar method. The results indicate a...
Flows of impact melt at lunar crater
K. A. Howard, H. G. Wilshire
1975, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (3) 237-251
Lavalike materials that were emplaced in a fluid state occur in and around lunar impact craters whose diameters range from 3 km to more than 200 km and whose ages span a time interval of at least 3.5 b.y. Evidence of fluid emplacement includes flow lobes and leveed channels, a...
Delineation of buried glacial drift aquifers
Thomas C. Winter
1975, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (3) 137-148
Locating and delineating buried glacial-drift aquifers poses one of the major problems to hydrogeologists working in glacial terrain. To show the vertical and horizontal boundaries of aquifers, most techniques require a multiple set of maps, a fence diagram, or a combination of maps and sections. Calculations of the first two...
An integrated-intensity method for emission spectrographic computer analysis
Catharine P. Thomas
1975, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (3) 181-185
An integrated-intensity method has been devised to improve the computer analysis of data by emission spectrography. The area of the intensity profile of a spectral line is approximated by a rectangle whose height is related to the intensity difference between the peak and background of the line and whose width...
Estimates of temperature and precipitation for northeastern Utah
F.K. Fields, D. B. Adams
1975, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (3) 131-136
Estimates of temperature and precipitation were made for northeastern Utah from information that was collected at 67 locations. The variable-length records were converted to the common-time base of 1941-70; then general relations were developed to extend the converted point values to unsampled sites. Regression techniques were used to fill voids...
Comparison of fission-track, K-Ar, and Rb-Sr radiometric age determinations from some granite plutons in Maine
C. W. Naeser, D. G. Brookins
1975, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (3) 229-231
Fission-track ages have been determined on eight apatite and four sphene concentrates separated from plutonic rocks in Maine. K-Ar and Rb-Sr ages for some of these rocks were previously published. In northeastern Maine the whole-rock Rb-Sr, biotite K-Ar, and apatite fission-track ages are concordant at 400-420 million years, whereas in...
Information through color imagery
Alden P. Colvocoresses
1975, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (3) 127-129
The color-sensing capability of the human eye is a powerful tool. In remote sensing we should use color to display data more meaningfully, not to re-create the scene. Color disappears with distance, and features change color with viewing angle. Color infrared film lets us apply color with additional meaning even...
