Age of the Bedford Shale, Berea Sandstone, and Sunbury Shale in the Appalachian and Michigan basins, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Michigan Age of the Bedford Shale, Berea Sandstone, and Sunbury Shale in the Appalachian and Michigan basins, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Michigan
The suggestion by Sanford (1967, p. 994) that the Bedford Shale, Berea Sandstone, and Sunbury Shale of the Michigan basin are of Late Devonian age because these strata contain Hymenozonotriletes lepidophytus Kedo is invalid for these formations in the Appalachian basin, the area of their type localities. Endosporites lacunosus Winslow, a synonym of Hymenozonotriletes lepidophytus Kedo...

Hydrologic implications of solid-water disposal Hydrologic implications of solid-water disposal
The disposal of more than 1,400 million pounds of solid wastes in the United States each day is a major problem. This disposal in turn often leads to serious health, esthetic, and environmental problems. Among these is the pollution of vital ground-water resources. Of the six principal methods of solid-waste disposal in general use today, four methods-open dumps, sanitary landfill...

Chemical quality of Michigan streams Chemical quality of Michigan streams
Concentrations of chemical constituents of Michigan streams exhibit regional patterns that are primarily a function of geology and evapotranspiration. However, in some areas waste disposal by municipal and industrial organizations has altered the natural distribution and concentrations of dissolved material. Concentration and areal distribution of chemical constitutents were found to...

GLC determination of quinaldine residue in fish GLC determination of quinaldine residue in fish
A procedure for the determination of quinaldine residue in various fish tissues is described. Homogenized tissues are extracted with hexane-ethyl ether, the extracts are concentrated by partitioning through 0.1N sulfuric acid, and the residues are measured by alkali flame ionization gas chromatography. Muscle tissues containing from 0.01 to 10.0 ppm quinaldine were successfully analyzed...

Summary of ground-water hydrological data in Michigan in 1969 Summary of ground-water hydrological data in Michigan in 1969
The purpose of this report is to make available the records of ground-water levels in the principal aquifers of the State through 1969 and to compile other related data, such as records of groundwater pumpage, data on municipal, public and industrial water-supply facilities, and the effects of precipitation on ground-water levels. Records of water levels in areas of heavy pumpage, and in...

A proposed streamflow-data program for Wisconsin A proposed streamflow-data program for Wisconsin
An evaluation of the streamflow data available in Wisconsin was made to provide guidelines for planning future programs. The basic steps in the evaluation procedure were (1) definition of the long-term goals of the streamflow data program, (2) examination and analysis of all available data to determine which goals have already been met, and (3) consideration of alternate programs and...
