Suggestions to authors of the reports of the United States Geological Survey Suggestions to authors of the reports of the United States Geological Survey
Suggestions to Authors (STA) is used as the writing style guide for the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) technical reports and maps. The STA is widely distributed in paper outside of the USGS as a basic scientific writing style guide for scientists, students, and editors. The goal of STA is to help writers present information as clearly as possible explaining punctuation rules, suggesting...

Control of pest species: Tree shelters help protect seedlings from nutria Control of pest species: Tree shelters help protect seedlings from nutria
Various methods of nutria preventative techniques were tested in attempts to curb the loss of seedlings due to nutria capturing. The results of testing possibly indicate that tree shelters have real potential for use in forest restoration projects on sites with moderate nutria populations. Tree shelters may even prove effective on sites with high nutria populations, as long as...

The influence of ambient salinity on routine metabolism in the teleost Cyprinodon variegatus Lacepède The influence of ambient salinity on routine metabolism in the teleost Cyprinodon variegatus Lacepède
Routine metabolism of the euryhaline cyprinodontid Cyprinodon variegatus Lacepede was measured at a series of ambient salinities ranging from fresh water through 100‰. Fish used had been sequentially acclimated to the test salinities (ambient temperature of 20±1° C and a 12: 12 L: D schedule). Routine metabolic rates were highest at ambient salinities from 15 to 50‰. Metabolism was...

The impact of debris on the Florida manatee The impact of debris on the Florida manatee
The endangered Florida manatee ingests debris while feeding. From 1978 through 1986, 439 salvaged manatees were examined. Debris was in the gastrointestinal tract of 63 (14.4%) and four died as a direct result of debris ingestion. Monofilament fishing line was the most common debris found (N=49). Plastic bags, string, twine, rope, fish hooks, wire, paper, cellophane, synthetic sponges...
