Some blood chemistry values for five Chesapeake Bay area fishes
J. B. Hunn, P.F. Robinson
1966, Chesapeake Science (7) 173-175
Blood samples from gizzard shad,largemouth bass, white perch, pumpkinseed, and toadfish were analyzed for hemoglobin, total plasma protein, total plasma cholesterol, and ion concentrations of plasma sodium, potassium, and chloride. The hemoglobin concentration and total plasma cholesterol found in a given species seem to have positive correlation with the customary activity level...
Some aspects of breeding biology of the blue-winged teal
C.W. Dane
1966, The Auk (83) 389-402
The Blue-winged Teal (Anas discors) was the subject of one of the first publications dealing with the breeding biology of a species of North American waterfowl (Bennett, 1938). Recent studies of the nesting chronology, clutch size, and incubation period of this species include the works of Hochbaum (1944), Sowls (1955),...
Disequilibrium of the 238U series in basalt
B.L.K. Somayajulu, M. Tatsumoto, J.N. Rosholt, R. J. Knight
1966, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (1) 387-391
Radioisotope analyses of basalt samples from Hawaii, Japan, and Iwo Jima show that: (1)234U and238U are virtually in radioactive equilibrium, (2)230Th exceeds equilibrium values in all these samples, (3)210Pb concentrations range from 10–200% of the equilibrium values and average 30% deficient, and...

Preparation of dart tags for use in the field
Joseph R. Higham
1966, Progressive Fish-Culturist (28) 205
Tagging in the field requires an efficient method of preparing the tags for dispensation under a wide range of conditions. The method described here was very efficient in an extensive tagging program on Oahe Reservoir, South Dakota....

Crystallization of tholeiitic basalt in Alae Lava Lake, Hawaii
D. L. Peck, T. L. Wright, J.G. Moore
1966, Bulletin Volcanologique (29) 629-655
The eruption of Kilauea Volcano August 21–23, 1963, left 600,000 cubic meters of basaltic lava in a lava lake as much as 15 meters deep in Alae pit crater. Field studies of the lake began August 27 and include repeated core drilling, measurements of temperature in the crust and melt,...
Color variations within glacial till, east-central North Dakota--A preliminary investigation
T. E. Kelly, Claud H. Baker Jr.
1966, Journal of Sedimentary Petrology (36) 75-80
Color variations (orange zones within buff-colored till) in drift in east-central North Dakota are believed to represent two tills of separate origin. Mean size, standard deviation, and number and type of pebbles show greater difference between the two tills than do skewness, kurtosis, and partial chemical analyses. Probably blocks of...
Waste injection into a deep limestone in northwestern Florida
J.T. Barraclough
1966, Groundwater (4) 22-24
During a three-month trial period, 70 million gallons of industrial wastes were successfully injected at moderate pressures into a deep limestone in the westernmost part of Florida. The movement of these wastes is expected to be predominantly southward toward the natural discharge area which is presumed to be far out...
Determination of Columbia River flow times from Pasco, Washington using radioactive tracers introduced by the Hanford reactors
Jack L. Nelson, R.W. Perkins, W.L. Haushild
1966, Water Resources Research (2) 31-39
Radioactive tracers introduced into the Columbia River in cooling water from the Hanford reactors were used to measure flow times downstream from Pasco, Washington, as far as Astoria, Oregon. The use of two tracer methods was investigated. One method used the decay of a steady release of Na24 (15-hour half-life)...
Sediment movement on the continental shelf near Washington and Oregon
M. Grant Gross, Jack L. Nelson
1966, Science (154) 879-885
The nuclides zinc-65 and cobalt-60 associated with river-borne particulate matter are incorporated in sediment on the Continental Shelf near the Colum- ia River. Changes in the relative concentrations of zinc-65 and cobalt-60 and in the ratio of the activity of zinc-65 and cobalt-60 suggest that radioactive sediment moves northward 12...
River meanders
Luna Bergere Leopold, Walter Basil Langbein
1966, Scientific American 60-70
The striking geometric regularity of a winding river is no accident. Meanders appear to be the form in which a river does the least work in turning; hence they are the most probable form a river can take...
The 1963–65 eruption of Irazú volcano, Costa Rica (the period of March 1963 to October 1964)
K. J. Murata, C. Dondoli, R. Saenz
1966, Bulletin Volcanologique (29) 763-793
The 1963–65 eruption of Irazú, like all others of this volcano during the historic period, produced only ash and other fragmental ejecta without lava. The initial outbreak on March 13, 1963 started with a series of great explosions that hurled out much ash, blocks, and bombs, but the activity...
