Recharge characteristics of a watercourse aquifer system at Springfield, Ohio
Stanley E. Norris, Herbert B. Eagon Jr.
1971, Groundwater (9) 30-41
An investigation was made of infiltration conditions in the alluvial-filled Mad River valley in the vicinity of the Springfield municipal wells. The study shows that most recharge to the 100-foot thick sand and gravel aquifer is from induced infiltration from the Mad River. Local precipitation and natural, down-valley underflow also...

1971, Iowa Geological Survey Water Atlas 4
Water is vital in the lives of the people and the economy of any area. In order to utilize this natural resource in the most efficient and beneficial manner, a basic knowledge and understanding of its sources and the occurrence and potential of each source must be gained. To provide...

Chemical compositions of rock types as factors in our environment
Harry A. Tourtelot
Helen L. Cannon, Howard C. Hopps, editor(s)
1971, Book chapter, Environmental geochemistry in health and disease
The types of rocks that form geologic units in the Earth’s crust supply most of the raw materials from which soils are formed and from which water derives its inorganic constituents. The compositions of what we eat and drink thus depend in part upon the compositions of the source rocks.Igneous...
Remanent magnetization and susceptibility of late Cenozoic rocks from New Zealand
Allan Cox
1971, New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics (14) 192-207
Measurements of magnetic remanence and susceptibility were made on 176 samples of volcanic rocks from 22 late Cenozoic formations from the North Island. Intensities of remanence, susceptibilities, and Q ratios are highly variable in both the ignimbrites and andesites and their ranges overlap, indicating that the magnetic...
Magnetic susceptibility and triangular exchange coupling in the tourmaline mineral group
T. Tsang, A. N. Thorpe, G. Donnay, Frank E. Senftle
1971, Journal of Physics and Chemistry of Solids (32) 1441-1448
Magnetic susceptibilities of three iron-rich tourmaline crystals from Mexquitic (Mexico), Pierpont (New York), and Madagascar with different and known chemical compositions have been studied from 8° to 300°K. The iron atoms in the tourmaline crystal structure, space group R3m, a∼15·9, c∼7·2 , are...

Palaeomagnetism and potassium-argon ages of volcanic rocks of Ngorongoro caldera, Tanzania
C. S. Grommé, T. A. Reilly, A. E. Mussett, R. L. Hay
1971, Geophysical Journal International (22) 101-115
Natural remanent magnetization (NRM) has been measured in 21 lava flows and 1 tuff in the south-west wall of Ngorongoro caldera, Tanzania. The lowest three lavas are normally magnetized, the next two have intermediate directions, and the remainder are reversed; potassium-argon dating places the reversal at 2.45 My, corresponding...

1971, Report
Studies of published and unpublished geologic and ground-water data, for an inventory of 6,032 wells and 754 springs in parts of Inyo and Mono Counties, California, and Clark, Esmeralda, Lincoln, and Nye Counties, Nevada, reveal the following information:A complex sequence of granitic, metamorphic, volcanic, and sedimentary rocks of Precambrian to...
Water resources of the Coamo area, Puerto Rico
Ennio V. Giusti
1971, Report
This study, like other similar studies, was made possible by a cooperative water-resources program between the U.S. Geological Survey and the Puerto Rico Water Resources Authority (at the time), representing also the Puerto Rico Aqueduct & Sewer Authority and the Puerto Rico Industrial Development Company.This report covers the hydrologic investigation...
Open-channel integrating-type flow meter
K.C. Koopman
1971, Report
A relatively inexpensive meter for measuring cumulative flow in open channels with a rated control,. called a "totalizer", was developed. It translates the nonlinear function of gage height to flow by use of a cam and a float. A variable resistance element in an electronic circuit is controlled by the...

1971, Conference Paper, International Workshop in Earth Resources Survey Systems
An attempt was made to investigate the potential of airborne, multispectral, line scanner data acquisition and computer-implemented automatic recognition techniques for providing useful information about waterfowl breeding habitat in North Dakota. The spectral characteristics of the components of a landscape containing waterfowl habitat can be detected with airborne scanners. By...

Biology of larval sea lampreys (Petromyzon marinus) of the 1960 year class, isolated in the Big Garlic River, Michigan, 1960-65
Patrick J. Manion, Alberton L. McLain
1971, Technical Report 16
The early life history of the sea lamprey, from hatching to the first capture of metamorphosed individuals, is described from observations on a known-age population isolated in a tributary of southern Lake Superior. The population had its origin in the spring of 1960, when 722 sea lampreys nearing spawning condition...

1971, Copeia (1971) 722-728
Blood cell types of the sea lamprey, Petromyzon marinus, are described and identified and the lineage of mature circulating cells in peripheral blood is traced to blast cells in the hematopoietic fat body. The fat body appears to be the phylogenetic precursor of bone marrow in higher forms, since blood...

1971, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada 606-608
Overlapping Gaussian distribution curves were resolved into normal ranges for 1800 clinical test values obtained from caudal arterial blood or plasma of more than 1000 juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) held under defined conditions of diet and temperature. Estimated normal blood chemistry ranges were bicarbonate, 9.5–12.6 mEq/liter; blood urea nitrogen (BUN),...

Changes in gill function, acid–base balance and pituitary activation occurring during standard 200 ppm formalin treatments of juvenile rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) and coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) were compared. Plasma Cl−, Ca++, total CO2, and interrenal vitamin C in the trout declined continuously and in proportion to the exposure time, but...
A procedure for testing the antigenicity of vaccines for immunization of fish against Furunculosis

Furnunculosis, a bacterial disease caused by Aeromonas salmonicida, is potentially one of the most devastating diseases in trout and salmon hatcheries. The disease may be controlled by three methods. The most frequently used method of control has been drug therapy. Unfortunately, the bacteria often develop resistance to the...
