The electrum-tarnish method for the determination of the fugacity of sulfur in laboratory sulfide systems
P. B. Barton Jr., P. Toulmin III
1964, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (28) 619-640
A new method for the determination of the fugacity of sulfur in laboratory systems consists of visual observation of the development and decomposition of a sulfide tarnish phase on silver-gold alloy (electrum) of precisely known composition. The alloy system is calibrated against pure sulfur. The method has the following advantages:...

Ground-water reconnaissance in the Burnt River valley, Baker County, Oregon
Don Price
1964, Open-File Report 64-128
The Burnt River valley in southern Baker County, Oreg., is underlain by rocks that range in age from pre-Tertiary to Quaternary. The pre-Tertiary rocks consist mainly of argillites, schists, limestones, and intrusive igneous rocks, while the Tertiary rocks consist mainly of felsic and mafic volcanic tuffs, lava flows and breccias,...
Chemical characteristics of south-central Lake Huron
Herbert E. Allen
1964, Conference Paper, Proceedings of the 8th Conference on Great Lakes Research
Water samples were collected for chemical analysis during eight cruises of the U.S. Bureau of Commercial Fisheries M/V CISCO in south-central Lake Huron in June-October 1956. Temperature, pH, conductivity, and the concentrations of Na+, K+, Ca++, C1-, SO4-, SiO2, and dissolved oxygen were determined for 233 samples from stations at...
Fluvial processes in geomorphology
Luna Bergere Leopold, M. Gordon Wolman, John P. Miller
1964, Book
This excellent text is a pioneering work in the study of landform development under processes associated with running water. Its primary emphasis is on subjects that were the focus of the authors' studies in both field and laboratory. Part I deals with the process of change in the evolving landscape....

1964, Utah Basic-Data Report 9
This report is intended to serve two purposes: (1) to make available to the public basic ground-water data useful in planning and studying development of water resources, and (2) to supplement an interpretive report that will be published later.Records were collected during the period 1935-64 by the U.S. Geological survey...

Age and growth of the round whitefish in Lake Michigan
Donald Mraz
1964, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (93) 46-52
The round whitefish, though rarely abundant, is widely distributed in northern waters. It is one of the least studied of the coregonines; the present report is but the second for Great Lakes waters. Commercial production in Lake Michigan has been tightly confined to the northern portion. The period 1924-30 showed...
The spottail shiner in Lower Red Lake, Minnesota
Lloyd L. Smith Jr., Robert H. Kramer
1964, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (93) 35-45
On the basis of 14,564 spottail shiners (Notropis hudsonius) from Red Lakes, Minnesota, growth rates, strength of year classes, and food utilization were studied. Males and females had different body-scale relationships, and females grew faster than males. There was high correlation between water temperature and growth rate. Strength of year...
Bottom sediments of Saginaw Bay, Michigan
Leonard E. Wood
1964, Journal of Sedimentary Petrology (34) 173-184
Saginaw Bay is a southwest extension of Lake Huron on the east shore of the Southern Peninsula of Michigan. It is a shallow-water derivative of the Pleistocene Lake Saginaw. Sixty-one bottom samples were collected on a semigrid pattern and analyzed physically. Findings were treated statistically. Sediments range in size from...

Minor-element composition and organic carbon content of marine and nonmarine shales of Late Cretaceous age in the western interior of the United States
H. A. Tourtelot
1964, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (28) 1579-1604
The composition of nonmarine shales of Cretaceous age that contain less than 1 per cent organic carbon is assumed to represent the inherited minor-element composition of clayey sediments delivered to the Cretaceous sea that occupied the western interior region of North America. Differences in minor-element content between these samples and...
Submicroscopic spherules and color of tektites
A. N. Thorpe, F. E. Senftle
1964, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (28)
Magnetic susceptibility measurements of 18 tektites from various strewn fields have been made as a function of temperature from 77°K to room temperature. A relatively large temperature-independent component of the magnetic susceptibility was observed in all cases, and an analysis of the data...
Spectrophotometric determination of fluorine in silicate rocks
L. C. Peck, V. C. Smith
1964, Talanta (11) 1343-1347
The rock powder is sintered with a sodium carbonate flux containing zinc oxide and magnesium carbonate, the sinter-cake leached with water and the resulting solution filtered. Fluorine is separated from the acidified filtrate by steam distillation and determined spectrophotometrically by means of a zirconium-SPADNS reagent. If...
