Birds imported into the United States in 1971
Birds imported into the United States in 1971 are tabulated by species. Total numbers for the period 1968-1971 are given for the more commonly imported taxa. The number of birds imported in 1971 increased only slightly over that for.1970. In 1971, 750 species were imported, of which 194 had not been imported in the previous 3 years; since 1968, approximately 1,445 species have been imported. P

Wolf numbers in the Superior National Forest of Minnesota
Seventy-seven radio-tagged wolves (Canis lupus), including members of 12 adjacent packs, were located more than 3000 times, and observed on 1337 occasions, from 1968 through mid-1973. Projected population estimates for the 4203 square-mile Forest were 405 plus or minus 20 for winter 1971-72, and 388 plus or minus 14 for winter 1972-73.

Production of superheated steam from vapor-dominated geothermal reservoirs
Vapor-dominated geothermal systems such as Larderello, Italy, The Geysers, California, and Matsukawa, Japan yield dry or superheated steam when exploited. Models for these systems are examined along with production data and the thermodynamic properties of water, steam and rock. It is concluded that these systems initially consist of a water and steam filled reservoir, a water-saturated cap rock, a
