Zinc Relationships Of Some Utah Soils, Wilford Derby Laws Jr. May 1941

Zinc Relationships Of Some Utah Soils, Wilford Derby Laws Jr.

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Recent reports from many parts of the United States indicate that the so-called zinc-deficiency disease is wide spread. It affects some varieties of trees in some areas and all varieties in other areas, and occurs from Florida westward to the Pacific coast and northward to the Canadian line. Although the disease is more prevalent in trees, it is also known to affect annual plants.

A recent survey of Utah orchards shows a wide-spread occurrence of little-leaf, a zinc deficiency disease, in fruit trees. The disease was found to be common on the upper sandy soils between Ogden and Salt Lake …

Permian Pelecypods In The Lower Quartermaster Formation, Texas, Robert Roth, Norman D. Newell, Benjamin H. Burma May 1941

Permian Pelecypods In The Lower Quartermaster Formation, Texas, Robert Roth, Norman D. Newell, Benjamin H. Burma

Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences: Faculty Publications

The age of the Quartermaster formation of Oklahoma and Texas has been the subject of some controversy, being variously given as late Permian or Triassic (?). Fossils have not been reported from these beds until the present discovery of a faunule in the lower part of the Doxey shale at the base of the Quartermaster. Three species are recognized, Naticopsis transversus (Beede), Schizodus oklahomensis Beede, and Myalina acutirostris, n. sp. These forms characterize the recently described Whitehorse fauna and indicate close relationship of the enclosing beds with the Whitehorse formation, even though the Quartermaster fossils occur more than a …

Gas Analysis By Absorption, Albert D. Mcmahon

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

There is practically only one method of gas analysis. This was worked out many years ago by Bunsen, Hempel, and Winkler and consists in the successive absorption with different chemicals of the various constituents of the gas. The only improvement to this method is the oxidation and combustion of different components of a mixture followed by absorption.

Cambrian Stratigraphy In The Northern Wasatch Region, George Burke Maxey May 1941

Cambrian Stratigraphy In The Northern Wasatch Region, George Burke Maxey

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

An exhaustive field study of the Cambrian stratigraphy of the northern Wasatch region indicates that in addition to the Blacksmith Fork section there are two complete and better exposed middle and upper sections. Several other good exposures of the lower Middle Cambrian section have been studied in detail. The Spence shale is found to be a member low in the Langston, not the basal member of the Ute. Relative ages of the Spence shale and Ptarmigania faunas have been determined. Other Cambrian faunal zones have been discovered and are discussed. Paleontologic evidence suggests that the Nounan formation is of Upper …

The Pipy Concretions Of The Arikaree, C. Bertrand Schultz Jan 1941

The Pipy Concretions Of The Arikaree, C. Bertrand Schultz

Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum

The pipy concretions of the Arikaree (lower Miocene) of Nebraska and adjacent states were first described by Nelson Horatio Darton (1899, p. 743) as "characteristic layers of hard, fine-grained, dark-gray concretions, often consisting of aggregations of long, irregular, cylindrical masses" (see Figures 30, 32, 34, and 35). The individual pipes vary in diameter from a few inches to several feet, and in length from a few inches to a hundred yards or more. Tests demonstrate that pipy concretions are composed of sand cemented by calcium carbonate. When dipped in acid the cement is dissolved and the concretion is reduced to …

A New Fossil Bovid From Nebraska With Notice Of A New Bison Quarry In Texas, C. Bertrand Schultz Jan 1941

A New Fossil Bovid From Nebraska With Notice Of A New Bison Quarry In Texas, C. Bertrand Schultz

Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum

An interesting and unique bovid skull was reported to the staff of the University of Nebraska State Museum in 1938 by Mr. Alvin McReynolds of Nehawka, Nebraska. The specimen was found in 1933 in a ravine north of Nehawka by Messrs. Merritt and Harold Dodson, brothers. Although the skull was not in place, it appears to have been washed out of a nearby Pleistocene clay deposit by floodwaters. The specimen is well preserved and is of a dark brown, almost black color. In 1938 it was loaned to the Museum for study and photographing but was not obtained as a …

Guide For A Field Conference On The Tertiary And Pleistocene Of Nebraska, C. Bertrand Schultz, Thompson M. Stout, Alvin Leonard Lugn, M. K. Elias, F. W. Johnson, M. F. Skinner

Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences: Faculty Publications

The earliest record of the Museum states that in June of 1874 Professor Samuel Aughey was appointed Director of Cabinets. He was succeeded by Professor Lewis E. Hicks in June, 1885. Little work was carried on in paleontology, however, until Dr. Erwin H. Barbour took charge in 1891 and organized the first expeditions. In 1893, Mr. Charles H. Morrill began his generous support of the field work, and since that time important contributions by him and others have enabled this work to continue. The search for fossil remains has taken Museum parties to every county in Nebraska, and to several …
