Clifford A. Hui
1975, Respiration Physiology (25) 63-70
The carcass of a subadult female Delphinus was placed in a hyperbaric chamber and subjected to two simulated dives each equivalent to 69.7 m. In one dive the thorax was in its natural state, and in the other 100 ml of water had been injected into each pleural cavity. Various morphometric...
Location of the non-tidal current null zone in northern San Francisco Bay
David H. Peterson, T. J. Conomos, W. W. Broenkow, Patrick C. Doherty
1975, Estuarine and Coastal Marine Science (3) 1-11
Variations in Sacramento-San Joaquin River discharge into northern San Francisco Bay causes shifts in location of the bottom density current null zone. At a river flow of 2000 m3/s this null zone is approximately 20 km from the seaward end of the estuary,...
The fracture strength and frictional strength of Weber Sandstone
J.D. Byerlee
1975, International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts (12) 1-4
The fracture strength and frictional strength of Weber Sandstone have been measured as a function of confining pressure and pore pressure. Both the fracture strength and the frictional strength obey the law of effective stress, that is, the strength is determined not by the confining pressure alone but by the...

The role of indigenous wild, semidomestic, and exotic birds in the epizootiology of velogenic viscerotropic Newcastle disease in southern California, 1972-1973
G.L. Pearson, M.K. McCann
1975, Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association (167) 610-614
During an epornitic of velogenic viscerotropic Newcastle disease (VVND) in southern California, free-flying wild birds, captive and free-ranging semidomestic birds, and exotic birds were collected from the quarantine area to determine their role in the epizootiology of the disease. The VVND virus was isolated from 0.04% of 9,446 free-flying wild...

Residue dynamics of quinaldine and TFM in rainbow trout
J. B. Hunn, J. L. Allen
1975, General Pharmacology (6) 15-18
Study of the residue dynamics of 2-methylquinoline (quinaldine) and 3-trifluoromethyl-4-nitrophenol (TFM) in rainbow trout yielded the following findings:1. Uptake and distribution of TFM by trout was influenced by the biotransformation of the lipidsoluble free phenol. No such effect was observed with quinaldine.2. Disappearance of quinaldine and TFM from gallbladder bile...

Some nutritional aspects of reproduction in prairie nesting pintails
Gary L. Krapu, G.A. Swanson
1975, Journal of Wildlife Management (39) 156-162
The nutritional significance of invertebrate foods in the diet of breeding hen waterfowl during the period of egg formation is discussed. Proximate, elemental, and amino acid analyses of the principal foods consumed by hen pintails (Anas acut) during the nesting season indicate the animal foods selected are rich sources of...
A spring aerial census of red foxes in North Dakota
A.B. Sargeant, W.K. Pfeifer, S.H. Allen
1975, Journal of Wildlife Management (39) 30-39
Systematic aerial searches were flown on transects to locate adult red foxes (Vulpes vulpes), pups, and rearing dens on 559.4 km2 (six townships) in eastern North Dakota during mid-May and mid-June each year from 1969 through 1973 and during mid-April 1969 and early May 1970. The combined sightings of foxes...
Search for blood protozoans in the American woodcock

Fourteen species of aquatic birds, including 11 species of ducks, were infested with leeches Theromyzon rude and Placobdella ornata near Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. Leeches infested 88% of 41 American Wigeon (Anas americana) and 31% of 86 Lesser Scaup (Aythya affinis) examined after death. Lesser Scaup captured by drive-trapping contained significantly...

Samples of all eighteen of the known C2 chondrites have been analyzed thermomagnetically. For eleven of these, initial Fe3O4 content is low (generally <1%) and theJs-T curves are irreversible. The heating curves show variable greater (up to 10 times) than it is initially. This...
Streamflow characteristics in northeastern Utah and adjacent areas
Fred K. Fields
1975, Utah Basic-Data Release 25
This report contains statistical summaries of streamflow records from 74 gaging stations, which are mostly in northeastern Utah. Low- flow, high-flow, and flow-duration summaries were compiled from daily discharge values; and flows of each month are compared through correlation with flows of 1, 2, and 12 months in the future....
