Book Review: Transmission of viruses by the water route by Gerald Berg, ed.
Ken Wolf
1968, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (97) 510-510
This "book" is a collection of 31 carefully edited reports which are based upon presentations of highly qualified persons who were, for the most part, participants in a 3-day symposium held in 1965 and sponsored by the research branch of what is now the Federal Water Pollution Control Administration (FWPCA)....
The northeast water supply crisis of the 1960's
Henry C. Barksdale
1968, Report
The water supply drought in the Northeast began in the autumn of 1961 and marked the beginning of a severe water shortage that continued with little relief through the summer of 1966. During this time, throughout much of the Northeast, water supplies remained below normal....
Ground-water resources of the Erie-Niagara basin, New York
A.M. La Sala Jr.
1968, Basin Planning Report ENB-3
The Erie-Niagara basin, New York, borders Lake Erie and the Niagara River and includes the principal part of their drainage basin in New York. The area extends from the Cattaraugus Creek basin on the south to the Tonawanda Creek basin on the north. The northern part of the area and...
Water resources data for New Mexico, water year 1967; Part 1. surface water records
Water Resources Division U.S. Geological Survey
1968, Water Data Report NM-67-1
The surface-water records for the 1967 water year for gaging stations, partial-record stations, and miscellaneous sites within the State of New Mexico are given in this report. For convenience there are also included records for a few pertinent gaging stations in bordering States. The records were collected and computed by...

A reconnaissance of stream sediment in the Erie-Niagara basin, New York
R.J. Archer, A.M. La Sala Jr.
1968, Basin Planning Report ENB-5
This reconnaissance study of erosion and deposition of sediment in the Erie-Niagara basin indicates that the highest sediment yields, on the order of 1,000 tons per square mile per year, occur in streams that drain upland areas. In contrast, for example, from the lowland part of the Tonawanda Creek basin,...
Chemical quality of streams in the Erie-Niagara basin, New York
R.J. Archer, A.M. La Sala Jr., J.C. Kammerer
1968, Basin Planning Report ENB-4
The streams in the 2,000-square-mile Erie-Niagara basin of western New York contain mainly a calcium bicarbonate type of water whose dissolved-solids content generally varies between 140 and 240 ppm (parts per mill ion). Water "hardness" (expressed as CaCO3 ) is usually between 100 and 200 ppm, sulfate concentrations are between...
Surface water in the Erie-Niagara basin, New York
W. E. Harding, B.K. Gilbert
1968, Basin Planning Report ENB-2
The Erie-Niagara basin contains about 2,000 square miles in western New York State. The drainage systems of the area discharge into Lake Erie and the Niagara River at an average rate of about 1,730 mgd (million gallons per day). Annual precipitation ranges from about 32 to 44 inches. Evapo-transpiration losses...
The administration of sulfonamide drugs to adult salmon
D.F. Amend, J.L. Fryer
1968, Progressive Fish-Culturist (30) 168-172
The artificial propagation of salmon starts with the capture of adults as they ascend rivers to spawn. After capture, they are retained in specially constructed holding areas until sexually mature. Though holding periods vary with species, the spring chinook (Oncorhynchus tshawytsca) may be held as long as 4 months before...

Bonding in eight ordered clinopyroxenes isostructural with diopside
J. Robert Clark, D.E. Appleman, James J. Papike
1968, Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology (20) 81-85
Bond distances and angles in isostructural, ordered clinopyroxenes are compared for eight compositions, based on five new and three published crystal-structure refinements from X-ray diffraction data. Unit-cell parameters and configuration of the silicate chains are directly correlated with cation composition and distribution in the M2 and M1 sites. ...
Van vleck paramagnetism in orthorhombic TiO2 (Brookite)
Frank E. Senftle, A.N. Thorpe
1968, Physical Review (175) 1144-1146
The magnetic susceptibility of the orthorhombic form of titanium dioxide has been measured from 5 to 300°K. After deducting the temperature-dependent component, which is probably due to defects or impurities, and the free-ion diamagnetic component, the Van Vleck paramagnetism was estimated to be 33×<span...
Palaeomagnetism, Potassium-argon ages and petrology of some volcanic rocks
G. Brent Dalrymple, A. Cox
1968, Nature (217) 323-326
Geological evidence obtained from samples of rocks from Cocos Island, Costa Rica, seems to agree with the idea that this island could have been a stepping stone for organisms migrating to the Galapagos Islands. ...
