Application of theory and research in fishery management of the Laurentian Great Lakes
Stanford H. Smith
1973, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (102) 156-163
The Great Lakes have a high potential for the conduct of research and useful application of research findings, but the history of the Great Lakes indicates that extensive research and intensive management have failed to prevent deterioration of the fisheries. At times the research was not done before a loss...

Microbial degradation of the lamprey larvicide 3-trifluoromethyl-4-nitrophenol in sediment-water systems
Lloyd L. Kempe
1973, Technical Report 18
The selective lampricide 3-trifluoromethyl-4-nitrophenol (TFM), maintained in the water at concentrations of 1 to 6 I?g/ml for several hours, kills larval sea lampreys (Petromyzon marinus) in tributaries of the Great Lakes. Because the fate of TFM in the environment is a matter of concern, the interactions of this chemical with...
Biochemical monitoring of water after the Cannikin event, Amchitka Island, Alaska, August 1973
Wilbur C. Ballance
1973, Report
Radiochemical data from the Amchitka Island study area were obtained from water samples collected by the U.S. Geological Survey during August 1973. Tritium determinations were made on 86 samples collected and gross alpha and gross beta/gamma determinations were made on 38 samples. The range of data for these samples was...
History of salmon in the Great Lakes, 1850-1970
John W. Parsons
1973, Technical Paper 68
This history of the salmon in the Great Lakes describes the decline and extinction of the Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in Lake Ontario in the 1800's; the failure to establish, by salmon culture, permanent or sizable populations of Atlantic or Pacific salmon in any of the Great Lakes in 1867-1965;...
An empirical NaKCa geothermometer for natural waters
R.O. Fournier, A.H. Truesdell
1973, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (37) 1255-1275
An empirical method of estimating the last temperature of water-rock interaction has been devised. It is based upon molar Na, K and Ca concentrations in natural waters from temperature environments ranging from 4 to 340°C. The data for most geothermal waters cluster near a straight line when plotted as the...
Open-jaw syndrome in chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) at a hatchery
Dennis E. Crouch, William T. Yasutake, Robert R. Rucker
1973, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (30) 1890-1892
Nearly 0.5% of the yearling spring chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) at a national fish hatchery were observed with mouth agape, the condition occurring in two of 16 ponds. X-radiographs and histological preparations indicated that the articular bone of the lower jaw was malformed and dislocated dorsal and posterior to its...
Computer program for sample sizes required to determine disease incidence in fish populations
Frank J. Ossiander, Gary Wedemeyer
1973, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (30) 1383-1384
A computer program is described for generating the sample size tables required in fish hatchery disease inspection and certification. The program was designed to aid in detection of infectious pancreatic necrosis (IPN) in salmonids, but it is applicable to any fish disease inspection when the sampling plan follows the hypergeometric...

Summary of chemical and radiochemical monitoring of water for the Cannikin event, Amchitka Island, Alaska, fiscal year 1972
L.J. Schroder, Wilbur C. Ballance
1973, Report
An increased dissolved-solids content was found immediately after the Cannikin event (November 6, 1971) at most of 10 locations in a water-sampling network established in 1967 and revised in September 1971. The observed dissolved-solids content increase was within the seasonal range that has been observed at these locations. No measurable increase...
Hydraulic tests in hole UAe-3, Amchitka Island, Alaska
Wilbur C. Ballance
1973, Report
Inflatable straddle packers were used to isolate and test selected intervals in hole UAe-3. Packer seats were poor in the uncased part of the hole because of unstable wall conditions, and leakage around packers occurred during some tests. However, leakage generally was slight, as shown on pressure-gage charts, and had...
Radiochemical monitoring of water after the Cannikin event, Amchitka Island, Alaska, October 1972
L.J. Schroder, Wilbur C. Ballance
1973, Report
The U.S. Geological Survey collected water samples from Arnchitka Island, Alaska, during October 1972. Tritium determinations were made on all samples collected and gross alpha and gross beta/gamma determinations were made on 41 samples. The gross alpha and gross beta determinations when compared with previously determined ranges for fresh waters...

Point of zero charge of weathered forsterite

The point of zero charge of forsterite shifts from an estimated 8.9 for the unaltered mineral to 8.4 and 8.0, respectively, after being weathered artificially for 1 h and 4 h. These results corroborate the presence of magnesium-deficient surfaces on the weathered...

The selenium content of U.S.G.S. standard rocks

Selenium was determined in duplicate portions from three bottles of six U.S.G.S. standard rocks by a spect rofluorimetric procedure. The following averages, as p.p.m. Se, were obtained: PCC-1, 0.031; GSP-1, 0.088; BCR-1, 0.12; SCo-1, 0.91; MAG-1, 1.3; and SGR-1, 3.7. One-way analysis...
