Developments in the control of bacterial kidney disease of salmonid fishes
Bacterial kidney disease of salmonid fishes, caused by Renibactenum salrnoninarum, was first reported more than 50 yr ago; nevertheless, large gaps persist in our knowledge of the infection - particularly in methods for its control. In the 1950's, principal control measures consisted of prophylactic or therapeutic feeding of sulfonamides, which were later supplanted by the antibiotic erythromycin.

Salmonid whirling disease: Myxosporean and actinosporean stages cross-react in direct fluorescent antibody test
Serologic relatedness of the two life stages of the salmonid whirling disease parasite Myxosoma cerebralis Hofer, 1903 — myxosporean spores from fish cartilage and actinosporean triactinomyxon spores from aquatic tubificids — were investigated. When the direct fluorescent antibody technique was used, anti-triactinomyxon and anti-M. cerebralis rabbit sera conjugated with fluorescein isothiocyanate

Suppression of antibody-producing cells in rainbow trout spleen sections exposed to copper in vitro
Immunosuppression was demonstrated in sections of rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss (formerly Salmo gairdneri) spleens immunized in vitro and exposed in culture to different concentrations of copper chloride. The sections were immunized with dinitrophenyl-Ficoll and cultured in Eagle's minimum essential medium with 2% fetal calf serum; half of the medium was withdrawn and replaced every other day.

Supplemented graphic correlation: A powerful tool for paleontologists and nonpaleontologists
The graphic correlation technique of Shaw (1964) is not restricted to biostratigraphic applications. Supplemented graphic correlation (SGC) expands the original technique to include nonunique events (log patterns) to add to the understanding of the geologic history of an area. Dinocyst and acritarch occurrence data and single-point resistance electric logs from three Paleocene to Eocene cores in t

Climate variability in an estuary: Effects of riverflow on San Francisco Bay
A simple conceptual model of estuarine variability in the context of climate forcing has been formulated using up to 65 years of estimated mean-monthly delta flow, the cumulative freshwater flow to San Francisco Bay from the Sacramento-San Joaquin River, and salinity observations near the mouth, head, mid-estuary, and coastal ocean. Variations in delta flow, the principal source of variability in

Remarkable isotopic and trace element trends in potassic through sodic Cretaceous plutons of the Yukon-Koyukuk Basin, Alaska, and the nature of the lithosphere beneath the Koyukuk terrane
During the period from 110 to 80 m.y. ago, a 450-km-long magmatic belt was active along the northern margin of Yukon-Koyukuk basin and on eastern Seward Peninsula. The plutons intruded Upper Jurassic(?) and Lower Cretaceous volcanic arc rocks and Cretaceous sedimentary rocks in Yukon-Koyukuk basin and Proterozoic and lower Paleozoic continental rocks in Seward Peninsula. Within Yukon-Koyukuk basin
