From abstract: Results of a reconnaissance geochemical survey of the Eau Claire Quadrangle, Wisconsin; Minnesota are reported. Field and laboratory data are presented for 565 groundwater samples, 680 stream sediment samples, and 667 stream water samples. Statistical and areal distributions of uranium and other possible uranium-related variables are displayed. A generalized geologic map of the survey area is provided and pertinent geologic factors which may be of significance in evaluating the potential for uranium mineralization are briefly discussed.

Proceedings of the 36th regional archeological symposium including the text of papers presented during the conference. It also includes the SWFAS by-laws, and the meeting minutes for a SWFAS business meeting.

This report splits the Superior Upland physiographic province of Minnesota into seven regions and concludes that the surficial geology is a result of glacial activity. This report includes several maps and tables.

From introduction: In this report, two programs have been developed for use in managing data derived from an aquifer thermal-energy storage (ATES) project being done by the University of Minnesota. Data are generated from temperature and pressure measuring devices that are read automatically by a datalogger. Up to 100 channels can be scanned every 10 seconds and recorded on magnetic tape or printed as paper output. Time period of up to several years of data may be represented on a single tape.

Summary of the birds of the St. Croix River Valley, including descriptions of each species' migration status and times of year, nesting season distribution, and habitat.

From preface: The preparation of this paper is due to the fact that the eruptive rocks occurring on Pigeon point, Minnesota, may be taken as types of similar eruptives found so widely spread over the Huronian and Keweenawan areas surrounding Lake Superior, and to the peculiar nature of the alteration these have superinduced in the fragmental rocks through which they have broken.

From abstract: The objective of the work was to define areas showing surface indications of a generally higher uranium content where detailed exploration for uranium would most likely be successful.

"Results of a reconnaissance geochemical survey are reported for the Milbank Quadrangle, Minnesota; North Dakota; South Dakota. Statistical data and areal distributions for uranium and uranium-related variables are presented for 662 groundwater and 319 stream sediment samples. Also included is a brief discussion on location and geologic setting." (from Abstract)

"Results of a reconnaissance geochemical survey of the Watertown Quadrangle are reported. Field and laboratory data are presented for 711 groundwater and 603 stream sediment samples. Statistical and areal distributions of uranium and possible uranium-related variables are displayed. a generalized geologic map of the survey is provided and pertinent geologic factors which may be of significance in evaluating the potential for uranium mineralization are briefly discussed."

Abstract:Data were collected and summarized on the hydrology and hydrogeology of 949 lakes, 10 acres (4 hectares) or larger, in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area, Minnesota. Eight tables totaling over 100 pages present data on location, depth, area, lake level, ecological and game-management classification, inflowing and outflowing streams, soils, bedrock type, water added to or take from lake, and reported lake-related problems. SYSTEM 2000, a generalized computer data-base management system, was used to organize the data and prepare the tables. SYSTEM 2000 provides powerful capabilities for future retrieval and analyses of the data. The data base is available to potential users so that questions not implicitly anticipated in the preparation of the published tables can be answered readily, and the user can retrieve data in tabular or other forms to meet his particular needs.

"Results of a reconnaissance geochemical survey of the Thief River Falls Quadrangle, Minnesota and North Dakota, are reported. Statistical data and symbol plots for uranium and uranium-related variables are presented for 471 groundwater and 342 stream sediment samples. Also included is a discussion on geologic factors considered significant in evaluating the potential for uranium mineralization."

This report presents field and laboratory data for 585 groundwater samples and 201 stream sediment samples collected from the Grand Forks quadrangle in North Dakota and Minnesota.

This report presents field and laboratory data for 642 groundwater samples and 238 stream sediment samples collected from the Fargo quadrangle in North Dakota and Minnesota.

First volume of a report documenting a high-sensitivity airborne radiometric and magnetic survey of four quadrangles in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Michigan including documentation about data collection and analysis.
