The effect of ether anesthesia on fin-clipping rate
Paul H. Eschmeyer
1953, Progressive Fish-Culturist (15) 80-82
As part of an experimental program to learn the effects of stocking lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) in Lake Superior, 141, 392 fingerlings were marked at the Charlevoix (Michigan) Station of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in October 1952.

The serpentine windings of rivers, which in certain reaches attain a remarkable symmetry and are then called meanders, must represent one aspect of the tendency for establishment of quasi-equilibrium in natural streams. With the increase in knowledge of the interaction of forces operating in rivers, this tendency toward equilibrium has...
The use of soils and paleosols for interpreting geomorphic and climatic history of arid regions
