Measurement and prediction of sediment yields in Wisconsin streams Measurement and prediction of sediment yields in Wisconsin streams
Sediment data of some form have been collected by the U.S. Geological Survey at 118 stream-gaging sites throughout Wisconsin, beginning in 1935. The average concentration of suspended sediment for Wisconsin streams is low in comparison with that of many streams in the United States—110 milligrams per litre for Wisconsin, as compared with 600 milligrams per litre for 50 percent of the...

Water resources of the Des Moines River Watershed, southwestern Minnesota Water resources of the Des Moines River Watershed, southwestern Minnesota
The Des Moines River drains about 1,350 square miles (3,496 km2) of the north, west, and central parts of the watershed, and the East Fork Des Moines River along with several small creeks drain about 200 square miles (518 km2) in the east part. These tributaries join the Des Moines river in Iowa. The watershed is on the Coteau des Prairies, the most prominent upland in southern Minnesota...

Long-term effects of 4-aminopyridine exposure to birds and fish Long-term effects of 4-aminopyridine exposure to birds and fish
The avian frightening agent, 4-aminopyridine (4AP), was tested on five avian and two fish species to assess the effects of long-term 4AP exposure to nontarget vertebrates. Adult bobwhites (Colinus virginianus), mourning doves (Zenaida macroura), and ring-necked pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) were fed diets containing 3 percent 4AP-treated cracked corn diluted with various ratios of...

The study of fresh-water lake ice using multiplexed imaging radar The study of fresh-water lake ice using multiplexed imaging radar
The study of ice in the upper Great Lakes, both from the operational and the scientific points of view, is receiving continued attention. Quantitative and qualitative field work is being conducted to provide the needed background for accurate interpretation of remotely sensed data. The data under discussion in this paper were obtained by a side-looking multiplexed airborne radar (SLAR)
