Age, growth, and maturity of round whitefish of the Apostle Islands and Isle Royale Regions, Lake Superior
Merryll M. Bailey
1963, Fishery Bulletin (63) 63-75
The round whitefish has been of some commercial importance in the upper Great Lakes but production in Lake Superior has generally been small; the United States average was 26,600 pounds for 1929-59. This study is based on 1,173 fish collected in the Apostle Islands in 1958-60 and 103 collected at...
Ground-water data: Beaver, Escalante, Cedar City, and Parowan Valleys; parts of Washington, Iron, Beaver, and Millard Counties, Utah
George W. Sandberg
1963, Utah Basic-Data Report 6
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 1935-62 by the U.S. Geological Survey...
Some climatic indicators in the period A.D. 1200-1400 in New Mexico
Luna Bergere Leopold, Estella B. Leopold, F. Wendorf
1963, Conference Paper
Three centuries before Columbus landed in America, the alluvial valleys of the south-western United States teemed with activity. The indigenous peoples had been building for 300 years a culture centred around community life based on flood-water farming and on hunting. A large number of pueblos had developed on sites earlier...
Government responsibility for land and water: Guardian or developer?
Luna Bergere Leopold, Raymond L. Nace
1963, Conference Paper
Ideas and concepts become obsolete just as do specific techniques. Obsolescence is the inevitable companion of progress; in fact, it is a sign of progress, provided that the obsolescence is recognized....
Simple measurements of morphological changes in river channels and hillslopes
J.P. Miller, Luna Bergere Leopold
1963, Conference Paper
One of the principal types of observational evidence on climatic changes in the recent geologic past is in river position and elevation. It is well known that river channels, particularly those flowing through alluvium or on relatively soft bedrock, tend to develop flood plains by lateral migration of the channel....
Association and determinacy in geomorphology
Luna Bergere Leopold, Walter Basil Langbein
Claude C. Albritton Jr., editor(s)
1963, Book chapter, The fabric of geology
You find a rock. It looks like an ordinary piece of flint, broken and rough. On a part of it is a patina whose soft grey color contrasts with the shiny brownish surfaces of conchoidal fracture. You could have found this rock in nearly any kind of an environment almost...
The movement, heterogeneity, and rate of exploitation of walleyes in northern Green Bay, Lake Michigan, as determined by tagging
Walter R. Crowe, Ernest G. Karvelis, Leonard S. Joeris
1963, Conference Paper, Proceedings of the North Atlantic Fish Marking Symposium
The Michigan waters of northern Green Bay are an important center for commercial and sport fishing. This 400-square-mile area has supported a commercial fishery for many years but the development of the intensive sport fishery is more recent, mostly since World War II. The commercial fishery is based on several...
Quantitation of microorganic compounds in waters of the Great Lakes by adsorption on activated carbon
Stacy L. Daniels, Lloyd L. Kempe, E. S. Graham, Alfred M. Beeton
1963, Conference Paper, Proceedings of the 6th Conference on Great Lakes Research
Microorganic compounds in waters of Lakes Michigan and Huron have been sampled by adsorption on activated carbon in filters installed aboard the M/V Cisco and at the Hammond Bay Laboratory of the U.S. Bureau of Commercial Fisheries. The organic compounds were eluted from the carbon according to techniques developed at the U.S....

Water resources investigations: A section in Thirty-third biennial report of the State Engineer to the governor of Utah: 1960-1962
U.S. Geological Survey
1962, Utah State Engineer Biennial Report 33
The Geological Survey is authorized by Congress to cooperate with the States and other local governmental units in water-resources investigations on a 50-50 financial basis. Principal cooperation for Utah is through the office of the Utah State Engineer. Other State offices, such as the State Road Commission, Water and Power...
Water production from oil wells of the Uinta Basin, Uintah and Duchesne Counties, Utah
Harry D. Goode, Richard D. Feltis
1962, Utah Geological and Mineralogical Survey Water-Resources Bulletin 1
Water production from individual oil wells in the Uinta Basin ranges from 0 to 2,920,000 barrels (about 380 acre-feet) per year. The total dissolved solids in the water ranges from 500 to 26,000 ppm (parts per million); thus some of the water is classified as fresh and can be used,...
Studies of transmission of mycobacterial infections in Chinook salmon
A. J. Ross, H.E. Johnson
1962, Progressive Fish-Culturist (24) 147-149
THE INCLUSION OF VISCERA AND CARCASSES OF TUBERCULOUS ADULT SALMON IN THE DIET OF JUVENILE SALMONIDS is considered to be the major source of mycobacterial infections in hatchery-reared fish (Wood and Ordal, 1958; Ross, Earp, and Wood, 1959). In considering additional modes of infection, we speculated about transovarian transmission or...
Intraspecific differences in serum antigens of red salmon demonstrated by immunochemical methods
G.J. Ridgway, G.W. Klontz, C. Matsumoto
1962, International North Pacific Fisheries Commission Bulletin (8) 1-9
The sera of most Alaskan red salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka Walbaum) were found to contain at least 14 antigenic components when tested by the double diffusion precipitin analysis method of Ouchterlony with antisera prepared in rabbits. Two of these components, designated antigens I and II, were missing from 116 of 125...
An interim report on Sacramento River Chinook disease: A virus-like disease of Chinook salmon
T. J. Parisot, J. Pelnar
1962, Progressive Fish-Culturist (24) 51-55
An annually recurring disease among chinook salmмом (Oncorhynchus tahawytscha) FINGERLINGs at the National Fish Hatchery at Coleman, California, was reported by Ross, Pelnar, and Rucker (1960). They presented results of experimental investigation of the disease which established that the etiologic agent was filterable, highly virulent, and resistant to antibiotics and some of the...
Molar volumes and densities of minerals
Richard A. Robie, Philip M. Bethke
1962, Trace Elements Investigations 822
These tables present critically chosen "best values" for the density and molar volume of selected mineral compounds. No attempt was made to be all-inclusive; rather we have tried to present data for chemically and physically well-defined phases for which the molar volume and/or density was knovvn to the order of...
