War on lampreys
James W. Moffett
1953, Philadelphia Enquirer, 23 August 1953 16-17
Vampire-like sea lampreys look somewhat like short sections of garden hose, swim like eels, and live solely on the blood of fishes. Their voracious appetites have been especially harmful to fish in the Great Lakes, and it is there that methods of underwater electrocution are being applied in their...

Lake fisheries need lamprey control and research
James W. Moffett
1953, The Fisherman (21) 10-11
Since 1921, when the first sea lamprey was recorded from Lake Erie, concern about this parasite in the Great Lakes above Niagara Falls, where previously it had never occurred, grew successively. At first, the concern was shared only in scientific circles, but as the parasite continued its persistent and...
Abbreviations used in publications of the United States Geological Survey
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
