Magnetostriction and palæomagnetism of igneous rocks
John W. Graham, A. F. Buddington, James R. Balsley
1959, Nature (183) 1318
IN a recent communication, Stott and Stacey1 report on a “crucial experiment” from which they conclude: “This excellent agreement between the dip and the directions of artificial thermoremanent magnetization of the stressed and unstressed rocks indicates that large systematic errors due to magnetostriction are most improbable in igneous rocks of types...
Paper coal in Indiana
G.K. Guennel, R.C. Neavel
1959, Science (129) 1671-1672
The foliated, papery texture of the upper third of an 18-inch coal seam in a strip mine near Rockville, Indiana, is attributable to matted plant cuticle. The cuticles of pinnules, pinnae, and rachides resemble Sphenopteris bradfordii Arnold and thus differ from the lycopsid stem cuticles of the Russian paper coal....

Core logs from Searles Lake, San Bernardino County, California
David V. Haines
1959, Bulletin 1045-E
Forty-one drill holes in the saline deposit on Searles Lake, San Bernardino County, Calif., were cored and logged. Drill holes averaged about 100 feet in depth; the majority are located around the margins of the dry lake. The saline deposit consists of an upper salt body about 39 square miles...
Determination of uranium in zircon
F. Cuttitta, G. J. Daniels
1959, Analytica Chimica Acta (20) 430-434
A routine fluorimetric procedure is described for the determination of trace amounts of uranium in zircon. It employs the direct extraction of uranyl nitrate with ethyl acetate using phosphate as a retainer for zirconium. Submicrogram amounts or uranium are separated in the presence of 100,000 times the amount of zirconium....

1959, Bulletin 1045-D
Detailed core logs of four holes drilled in Bristol, Cadiz, and Danby Dry Lakes in southeastern San Bernardirio County, Calif., are given in the present report. These 3 dry lakes lie in a chain of basins having a drainage area of 4,000 square miles which is made up of alluvial...
Life history of the sea lamprey of Cayugaf Lake, New York
Roland L. Wigley
1959, Fishery Bulletin of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 561-617
A life history study of the sea lamprey, Petromyson marinus Linnaeus, in Cayuga Lake, N.Y., was conducted during 1950, 1951, and 1952. One of the major objectives was to obtain biological data concerning this endemic stock of sea lampreys for comparison with the newly established stocks in the Great Lakes....
Magnetic susceptibility of tektites and some other glasses
F. E. Senftle, A. Thorpe
1959, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (17) 234-237
The magnetic susceptibility at several magnetic field strengths of about thirty tektites from various localities have been measured. The susceptibility ranges from 2 × 10−6 to about 7.9 × 10−6 e.m.u./g. Tektites from a given locality have similar susceptibilities. The intensity of magnetization of all the tektites measured is zero or very...
A compilation of chemical quality data for ground and surface waters in Utah
John G. Connor, C.G. Mitchell
1958, Technical Publication 10
An accelerated use of water resulting from a growing population, industrial expansion, and irrigation has brought into focus the importance of the quality as well as the quantity of this natural resource in Utah. As new demands are made on the existing supply, a search goes on for new sources...

A possible cause of sunburn in fish
1958, Progressive Fish-Culturist (20) 111-113
A LESION DESCRIBED AS A GRAY ΡATCH GENERALLY LOCATED ΑΝΤΕRIOR TO THE DORSAL FIN has been associated with high mortality of fish on numerous occasions in production hatcheries throughout the United States. This lesion has been called "sunburn" or "backpeel." No bacteria or other pathogens have been found in fish...

Rapid counting of nematoda in salmon by peptic digestion
Joseph A. Stern, Diptiman Chakravarti, Joseph R. Uzmann, M. N. Hesselholt
1958, Special Scientific Report - Fisheries 255
The nematode parasite Anisakis sp. can be recovered, relatively unaltered, from chum salmon musculature by high temperature (52°+2°C.) peptic digestion of the flesh. The procedure, which is presented in detail, appears to be more thorough in isolating the parasite than dissection of the flesh and manual isolation of the worms. In...
