A geomorphic and hydro-geologic investigation of the Saline River Valley in Ellis County, Kansas shows that the bedrock morphology of the paleovalley is very irregular and the morphometry and stratigraphy of the included valley-fill material is...
A study was made of nineteen relict grassland areas scattered throughout the Great Plains. The study was made to determine basal cover, percentage composition and per cent frequency of the grass and sedge species, and also the soil texture present...
Small mammals were trapped on four habitats; cropland, roadside ditch, pasture, and remnant grassland. The small mammal community of each of these habitats were compared on the basis of richness, evenness, diversity, and similarity. The cropland...
In this investigation, I compiled distribution and habitat records for Chaetodipus hispidus, Dipodomys ordii, Perognathus fasciatus, Perognathus flavescens, and Perognathus flavus on the central Great Plains. I more fully described habitat use of...
In an attempt to determine if fossil insects could be used for paleoclimatic determinations, a portion of the Parachute Creek Member of the Green River Formation in Western Colorado was trenched and all fossils were collected. The study area is...
Studies in recent decades, including some based on mist-net counts, have suggested that populations of certain Neotropical migrants have been declining. Many of these studies utilize total birds per net hour as an index of actual population...
A study of the factors of climate and their relation to wheat and short grass yields was conducted at Hays, Kansas. Statistical correlations were made between the elements of the climate and wheat and short grass yields, also correlations between...
"The phenotype of two Andropogon gerardii subspecies, big bluestem and sand bluestem, varies broadly throughout the Great Plains of North America, giving rise to ecotypes within the species. This study sought to discriminate between genetic and...
Detailed field mapping and sedimentary analysis has revealed the physical stratigraphy, depositional environment, and provenance of the sediment in a small, but geologically important area (Sections 16, 17, 20, and 21, T. 33 S., R. 28 W.) in Meade...
A six-months microclimatic investigation (November, 1957 to April, 1958) of the various climatic factors (temperature, light intensity, wind velocity, and humidity) was conducted at seven different stations. The area selected for this study was a...
This investigation was an attempt to determine the effects of a change of habitat factors on the responses of big bluestem which dominates favorable site in the mixed prairie association. Responses of big b1uestem on five habitats were determined...

The Sulphur Springs Formation consists of four members, in ascending order: the Upper Devonian (Famennian) “Allenton siltstone,” named herein; Glen Park Limestone, Bushberg Sandstone, and Lower Mississippian (Tournaisian) Bachelor Sandstone. ...
I investigated geographic and non-geographic variation among populations of the southern bog lemming, Synaptomys cooperi, in Arkansas, Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, and Wisconsin using cranial morphometric data. I also reviewed the...
Systematic trapping was conducted along streams in western Kansas, where Peromyscus leucopus had not previously been recorded. Near the Kansas-Colorado border in west central Kansas, tree distribution is restricted to riparian communities and is...
Two new Pleistocene local faunas, the cedar Bluff and the Lone Tree, are reported from Trego County, Kansas. Twenty- three taxa were collected from the Cedar Bluff l.f. along the Smoky Hill River. The Lone Tree l.f. contains twenty-one taxa which...
