Acoustic-reflection profiles, Bay of Campeche: International Decade of Ocean Exploration, U.S. Geological Survey, Leg 1, 1971 cruise, UNITEDGEO I
George William Moore
1972, Report
IntroductionAs part of a cooperative marine research program designated the International Decade of Ocean Exploration (IDOE), the United States Geological Survey is participating in an investigation of the geologic framework and resource potential of continental margins and small ocean basins in the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea, and west African...
Interstitial water studies on small core samples, Leg 9
F.L. Sayles, L.S. Waterman, F.T. Manheim
1972, Initial reports of the Deep Sea Drilling Project (9) 845-855
The chemistry of the pore fluids obtained on Leg 9 is remarkable primarily in its constancy. Excepting silicon and strontium, only at one site do the concentrations of the major and minor constituents deviate notably from sea water concentrations (see Tables 1 and 2). The trends, or lack of them,...

The future of salmonid communities in the Laurentian Great Lakes
Stanford H. Smith
1972, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (29) 951-957
The effects of human population growth, industrialization, and the introduction of marine fishes have reduced the suitability of each of the Great Lakes for oligotrophic fish communities. The ultimate consequence has been a reduction of fishery productivity that has ranged from extreme in Lake Ontario to moderate in Lake Superior....

Effects of dressing and cooking on DDT concentrations in certain fish from Lake Michigan
Robert E. Reinert, Donald Stewart, Harry L. Seagran
1972, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (29) 525-529
Concentrations of DDT residues were highest in parts of the body with the highest oil content in four species of fish from Lake Michigan: yellow perch (Perca flavescens), bloater (Coregonus hoyi), lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush), and coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch). Dressing reduced the DDT residues and oil content by more...

Geological framework of the south polar region of Mars
B. C. Murray, L.A. Soderblom, J.A. Cutts, R.P. Sharp, D.J. Milton, R.B. Leighton
1972, Icarus (17) 328-345
The first 4 months of Mariner 9 photography of the south polar region are discussed. Three major geological units have been recognized, separated by erosional unconformities. From oldest to youngest they are: cratered terrain, pitted plains, and laminated terrain. The latter unit is unique in occurrence to the polar region,...

Radiative-neutron-capture gamma-ray analysis by a linear combination technique
A.B. Tanner, R.C. Bhargava, F. E. Senftle, J.M. Brinkerhoff
1972, Nuclear Instruments and Methods (102) 61-72
The linear combination technique, when applied to a gamma-ray spectrum, gives a single number indicative of the extent to which the spectral lines of a sought element are present in a complex spectrum. Spectra are taken of the sought element and of various...
Graphical methods for representing form and stability of aqueous metal ions
J.D. Hem
1972, Chemical Geology (9) 119-132
The equilibrium distributions of solute species of aluminum at 25°C and one atmosphere pressure are shown graphically in systems containing fluoride, as functions of the total dissolved aluminum and fluoride. The predominant form of complex and degree of complexing are also shown...
Mariner 9 television observations of Phobos and Deimos

1972, Icarus (17) 394-407
Mariner 9 photographs of Phobos and Deimos have yielded new information about the orbits, rotation periods, sizes, shapes, and surface characteristics of the satellites. Both satellites appear to be in synchronous rotation. They are irregular, heavily cratered bodies whose shapes appear to have been determined largely by impact fragmentation and...
Fluorination of 1,2,3-, 1,2,4-, and 1,3,5-trihalobenzenes with potassium fluoride in dimethyl sulfone
R.H. Shiley, D. R. Dickerson, G. C. Finger
1972, Journal of Fluorine Chemistry (2) 19-26
Three trifluorobenzenes were prepared by reaction of the corresponding trichlorobenzenes with potassium fluoride or pottassium fluoride-cesium fluoride mixtures in dimethyl sulfone. Molar yields were 12.8% for 1,2,3-, 8.3% for 1,2,4-, and 56.2% for 1,3,5-. Improved yields of the 1,2,3- (23.9%) and the 1,2,4-...

1972, Icarus (16) 17-33
The general objectives of the Imaging Experiment on the Viking Orbiter are to aid the selection of Viking Lander sites, to map and monitor the chosen sites during lander operations, to aid in the selection of future landing sites, and to extend our...
Atomic displacements in ferroelectric trigonal and orthorhombic boracite structures
Eric Dowty, J. R. Clark
1972, Solid State Communications (10) 543-548
New crystal-structure refinements of Pca21 boracite, Mg3ClB7O13, and Rϵc ericaite, Fe2.4Mg0.6ClB7O13, show that some boron and oxygen atoms are involved in the ‘ferro’ transitions as well as the metal and halogen atoms. The atomic displacements associated with the polarity changes are as large as 0.6Å....
Mass spectrometric analysis of organic compounds, water and volatile constituents in the atmosphere and surface of Mars: The Viking Mars Lander
Duwayne M. Anderson, K. Biemann, Leslie E. Orgel, John Oro, Tobias Owen, Garson P. Shulman, Priestley Toulmin III, H. C. Urey
1972, Icarus (16) 111-138
An experiment centering around a mass spectrometer is described, which is aimed at the identification of organic substances present in the top 10 cm of the surface of Mars and an analysis of the atmosphere for major and minor constituents as well as isotopic abundances. In addition, an indication of...

1972, Science (175) 363-375
Samples returned from the Apollo 15 site consist of mare basalts and breccias with a variety of premare igneous rocks. The mare basalts are from at least two different lava flows. The bulk chemical compositions and textures of these rocks confirm the previous conclusion that the lunar maria consist of...
Silicate melt inclusions and glasses in lunar soil fragments from the Luna 16 core sample
E. Roedder, P.W. Weiblen
1972, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (13) 272-285
More than 2000 fragments were studied microscopically, and electron microprobe analyses were made of 39 selected areas, from a few square mm of polished surface, through 75- to 425-μm fragments of lunar soil from two samples of the Luna 16 core. The...
