Hawaiian Volcano Observatory record book 1955
1955, Report
The Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) record books are annual journals in which field observations of eruptive activity at Kīlauea and Mauna Loa volcanoes, on the Island of Hawaiʻi, were compiled by HVO staff for most years from 1912 through early 1966. In addition to descriptive observations, the record books also...
Reconnaissance for radioactive deposits in Alaska, 1953
John J. Matzko, Robert G. Bates
1955, Trace Elements Investigations 442
During the summer of 1953 the areas investigated for radioactive deposits in Alaska were on Nikolai Creek near Tyonek and on Likes Creek near Seward in south-central Alaska where carnotite-type minerals had been reported; in the headwaters of the Peace River in the eastern part of the Seward Peninsula and...
Geology and ground-water resources of Webster County, Iowa
William E. Hale
1955, Water Supply Bulletin 4
Webster County, comprising an area of 718 square miles just northwest of the center of Iowa, had a population of 44,241 in 1950, with 25,115 in Fort Dodge, the principal city. Some 94.4 percent of the county is in farm land; corn is the principal crop and is used in...
Total sediment load measured in turbulence flume
Paul C. Benedict, Maurice L. Albertson, Donald Q. Matejka
1955, Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers (120) 457-484
The results of significant model tests in a glass-walled flume and prototype tests of a turbulence flume are presented. The velocity of flow and the transportation of the total sediment load in suspension were observed under varying conditions of flow. Also noted was the resistance to flow caused by vertical...
The sea lamprey
Vernon C. Applegate, James W. Moffett
1955, Scientific American (192) 36-41
Replicate samples of dehydrated :alfalfa-leaf meal were assayed for carotene content by four different analytical procedures. The results obtained by the modified A.O.A.C.method were significantly higher than those obtained by the other procedures....
The pygmy whitefish, Coregonus coulteri, in Lake Superior
Paul H. Eschmeyer, Reeve M. Bailey
1955, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (84) 161-199
Bottom trawling by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service motor vessel Cisco in Lake Superior in 1952–1953 revealed a large population of a tiny whitefish, Coregonus (Prosopium) coulteri, which has been reported previously only from northwestern North America. The hiatus in range, from Lake Superior to the Columbia...
Determination of total sulfur content of sedimentary rocks by a combustion method
M. E. Coller, R. K. Leininger
1955, Analytical Chemistry (27) 949-951
Total sulfur has been determined in common sedimentary rocks by a combustion method. Sulfur contents range from 0.001 to 5.0%. Experiments show that the combustion method can be used in analyzing sedimentary rocks in which sulfur is present as sulfide, sulfate, or both. Pulverized samples from 0.100 to 0.500 gram...
Rapid determination of water in silicate rocks
Leonard Shapiro, W. W. Brannock
1955, Analytical Chemistry (27) 560-562
A rapid and simple method for the determination of total water in silicate rocks has been developed by modifying the Penfield procedure. In this method, the time required for a single determination has been reduced to less than 10 minutes. Comparison of the data obtained by this modification and the...
Determination of thorium and of rare earth elements in cerium earth minerals and ores
M. K. Carron, D. L. Skinner, R.E. Stevens
1955, Analytical Chemistry (27) 1058-1061
The conventional oxalate method for precipitating thorium and the rare earth elements in acid solution exhibits definite solubilities of these elements. The present work was undertaken to establish conditions overcoming these solubilities and to find optimum conditions for precipitating thorium and the rare earth elements as hydroxides and sebacates. The...
Internal standards in fluorescent X-ray spectroscopy
I. Adler, J. M. Axelrod
1955, Spectrochimica Acta (7) 91-99
The use of internal standards in the analysis of ores and minerals of widely-varying matrix by means of fluorescent X-ray spectroscopy is frequently the most practical approach. Internal standards correct for absorption and enhancement effects except when an absorption edge falls between the comparison lines or a very strong emission...
