1970, Nuclear Instruments and Methods (80) 149-171
A table of the analytical sensitivities of the principal lines in the thermal-neutron-capture gamma ray spectrum has been compiled for most of the elements. In addition a second table of the full-energy, single-escape, and double-escape peaks has been compiled according to energy for...
Salmonid viruses: Double infection of RTG-2 cells with Egtved and infectious pancreatic necrosis viruses
K. Wolf, P. E. Vestergard Jorgensen
1970, Archiv Fur Die Gesamte Virusforschung (29) 337-342
Egtved and infectious pancreatic necrosis (IPN) viruses were applied at high multiplicity alone and in combination to RTG-2 cells in liquid medium. Procedures were used which selectively suppressed one or the other virus, and the yields were determined after 64 hours at 15°C. The viruses showed an increase of 280...

Paleomagnetic secular variation study of lavas from the Massif central, France
Richard R. Doell
1970, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (8) 352-362
The angular standard deviation of virtual geomagnetic poles determined from a paleomagnetic study of 31 Brunhes-age lava flows from France has been obtained. The value, referred to the axial dipole (geographic axis), is 15.2° with 95% confidence limits of 18.4° and 12.9°....
Some investigations of the deposition of travertine from Hot Springs-I. The isotopic chemistry of a travertine-depositing spring
I. Friedman
1970, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (34) 1303-1315
The isotopic compositions of the travertine and of the hot spring solutions were studied at Main Springs and New Highland Terrace in the Mammoth Hot Springs area of Yellowstone Park. The springs issue at 74°C and a pH of 6.65 and the carbon isotopic composition of the travertine depositing at...

Significance of an aeromagnetic anomaly in the southwestern part of the Blue Range primitive area, Arizona-New Mexico
Gordon P. Eaton, James Clifford Ratte
1970, Open-File Report 69-84
In the Autumn of 1968 the U.S. Geological Survey flew a detailed aerial magnetic survey of the southwesternmost part of the Blue Range primitive area between Lat 33°21'00" and 33°29'00" N. and Long 109°15'00" and 109°22'30" W. The survey was intended to define more precisely a positive magnetic anomaly that...

Trends in fishery management of the Great Lakes
Stanford H. Smith
1970, Special Publication 7
Some hope is returning for recovery of the fish stocks of the Great Lakes, which have been outstanding examples of abuse although they are the world's largest and most valuable freshwater fishery resource. The lakes and the fish in them have been under complete jurisdiction of sovereign nations and...
