Downstream movement of lampreys and fish in the Carp Lake River, Michigan
Vernon C. Applegate
1961, Special Scientific Report - Fisheries 387
An inclined-screen trap was installed on the Carp River, Emmett County, Michigan, in the spring of 1948 and has been in almost continuous operation since that time. The major goal of this project--a precise determination of the length of the larval life of sea lamprey--was not attained because of the...

1961, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (22) 75-86
The chemistry of water of Aqua de Ney, a cold spring of unusual character located in Siskiyou County, Calif., has been re-examined as part of a study of the relation of water chemistry to rock environment. The water has a pH of 11·6 and a silica content of 4000 parts...
Radio-tracer techniques for the study of flow in saturated porous materials
H.E. Skibitzke, H. T. Chapman, G.M. Robinson, Richard A. McCullough
1961, International Journal of Applied Radiation and Isotopes (10) 38-42
An experiment was conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey to determine the feasibility of using a radioactive substance as a tracer in the study of microscopic flow in a saturated porous solid. A radioactive tracer was chosen in preference to dye or other chemical in order to eliminate effects of...
The identification and separation of Aeromonas liquefaciens from Pseudomonas fluorescens and related organisms occurring in diseased fish
G. L. Bullock
1961, Applied Microbiology (9) 587-590
Taxonomy of the motile species of the genus Aeromonas is briefly discussed. It is suggested that Aeromonas organisms, isolated from outbreaks of red mouth of trout, red sore of pike, infectious abdominal dropsy and hemorrhagic septicemia of warm water fish, and which show acid and gas in glucose broth, production of 2,3-butanediol hydrogen sulfide...
Mineralogy and geochemistry of vanadium in the Colorado Plateau
A. D. Weeks
1961, Journal of the Less-Common Metals (3) 443-450
The chief domestic source of vanadium is uraniferous sandstone in the Colorado Plateau. Vanadium is 3-, 4-, or 5-valent in nature and, as oxides or combined with other elements, it forms more than 40 minerals in the Plateau ores. These ores have been studied with regard to the relative amounts...
Records of wells, water levels, and chemical quality of ground water in the French Prairie-Mission Bottom area, northern Willamette Valley, Oregon
Don Price
1961, Report
An investigation of the ground-water resources of the northern Willamette Valley was begun in 1960 as a cooperative program between the Ground Water Branch, U.S. Geological Survey, and the Oregon State Engineer. The northern Willamette Valley area is one of the fastest growing areas of ground-water use within the...

A back-pack shocker for collecting lamprey ammocoetes
Robert A. Braem, Wesley J. Ebel
1961, Progressive Fish-Culturist (23) 87-91
IN 1958, THE BUREAU OF COMMERCIAL FISHERIES began to use specific larvicides for sea lamprey control in streams tributary to the Great Lakes. The successful application of larvicides required treatment of all areas of the streams infested by sea lamprey ammocoetes. Intensive surveys were needed to determine distribution of the...
Recoveries of tagged, hatchery-reared lake trout from Lake Superior
Howard J. Buettner
1961, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (90) 404-412
Plantings that totaled 13,384 tagged, hatchery-reared lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush)—18, 25, 30, or 37 months old—were made at four Lake Superior localities in 1955-57 to: measure possible increases of return from rearing to greater size and age; study the effect of season of planting on the rate of return; compare...
Detrital-appearing uraninite grains in the shinarump member of the chinle formation in northern Arizona
R.G. Petersen
1960, Economic Geology (55) 138-149
A sample of uranium-bearing conglomerate from the Shinarump member of the Chinle formation in northern Arizona was disaggregated in an ultrasonic separator. The sample, weighing 187 grams, contained about 60 grains of uraninite (from 0.1 to 1 mm diameter) which have the sphericity and polish suggestive of detrital grains. The detrital-appearing grains are associated with abundant...
Mycobacterium salmoniphilum sp. nov. from salmonoid fishes
A. J. Ross
1960, American Review of Respiratory Disease (81) 241-250
The presence of mycobacteria in salmonoid fishes was first recorded by Earp, Ellis, and Ordal (1) in 1953. Acid-fast bacilli had previously been reported from other cold-blooded animals including fishes of fresh-water and marine origin; recent reviews have been presented by Vogel (2) and Parisot (3). The initiation of an intensive...
