The Permian rocks near Quinn River Crossing, Humboldt County,
Nevada, crop out as a north-trending block-faulted ridge and consist
of more than 2600 feet of middle Permian fossiliferous limestone.
About 1000 feet of unfossiliferous cherty shales, sandstones, and
conglomerates are associated with the limestone and are assumed also
to be...
The thesis area consists of 42 square miles located
in Madison and Gallatin counties, Montana, in the southern
part of the Madison Range. The strata exposed in the
area range in age from Precambrian to Quaternary and have
an aggregate thickness of more than 7,600 feet.
The Paleozoic rocks, about...
The thesis area consists of 65 square miles located in the southeastern part of Meagher County, Montana. Ranging in age from Precambrian to Quaternary, the strata exposed in the area have a total thickness of about 11,100 feet. Low grade metamorphic rocks, mainly slates, and limestones represent the estimated 2,000...
A study of the effect of mixing on the oxygen uptake rate of
estuarine bottom deposits is presented. The method of study involved
the mixing of samples of bottom deposits with the overlying water to
result in concentrations of suspended matter in the same order as
observed in the estuary....
In situ light and dark planktonic and benthal respirometers were
used to measure the oxygen requirements of Yaquina estuary water
and benthal deposits. Respirometer devices were constructed so that
actual conditions of mixing could be simulated and benthal deposit
disturbance would be minimized.
A mathematical model of a benthal respirometer...
