Sampling of fish muscle for M.S.222 and quinaldine residues Sampling of fish muscle for M.S.222 and quinaldine residues
Large variations in concentrations of M.S. 222 (tricaine methanesulfonate) and quinaldine (2-methylquinoline) residues occurred in various areas of fish fillets. Residue analyses of replicate samples from homogenized fillets yielded more representative results than samples cut from various areas of fillets.

An appraisal of ground water for irrigation in the Wadena area, central Minnesota An appraisal of ground water for irrigation in the Wadena area, central Minnesota
The Wadena area is part of a large sandy plain in central Minnesota whose soils have low water-holding capacity. Drought conditions which adversely affect plant growth frequently occur in the summer when moisture is most needed. To reduce the risk of crop failure in the area supplemental irrigation is on the increase. This study was made to evaluate the ground-water resources of the area...

Sediment problems in urban areas Sediment problems in urban areas
A recognition of and solution to sediment problems in urban areas is necessary if society is to have an acceptable living environment. Soil erosion and sediment deposition in urban areas are as much an environmental blight as badly paved and littered streets, dilapidated buildings, billboard clutter, inept land use, and air, water, and noise pollution. In addition, sediment has many...

Water resources of the Redwood River watershed, southwestern Minnesota Water resources of the Redwood River watershed, southwestern Minnesota
The Redwood River watershed contains 739 square miles underlain by glacial drift and sedimentary and crystalline rocks. The land surface slopes gently northeastward and eastward from altitudes greater than 1900 feet at the southwestern edge to less than 850 feet at the mouth of the Redwood River in the east. The area has slight local relief shaped by continental glaciation. The Redwood...
