Geological Survey research 1968: Chapter C

Refractory flint clay and semiflint clay layers, totaling as much as 7% feet in thickness, occur in the lower part of the Allegheny Formation of Pennsylvanian age in north-central Randolph County, W.Va. The deposit seems to be a lens in a widespread bed of plastic clay and may underlie an area of 1-2 square miles. Refractory tests of three samples indicate a pyrometric cone equivalent of cone 30-3

Geochemistry and ground-water movement in northwestern Minnesota

The relation between water quality and water movement within the ground-water reservoir may be better understood if studies of flow systems are used in conjunction with hydrochemical methods. Within small watersheds, local, intermediate, and regional flow systems may develop, depending upon the shape, the relief, and the thickness of the ground-water reservoir. Lateral and vertical variations of w

Comparison of three methods of sampling trout blood for measurements of hematocrit

Trout blood is frequently collected for hematocrit measurements by excising the caudal fin (Snieszko, 1960), but this technique is impractical if valuable fish are to be sampled or if repeated observations are desired. Schiffman (1959) and Snieszko (1960) collected blood from the dorsal aorta and the heart, but these methods are relatively slow and require the preparation of needles and syringes.
