Studies On The Microcrustacea Of Three Montane Lakes In Glacier National Park, Montana, Robert O. Megard Jun 1958

Studies On The Microcrustacea Of Three Montane Lakes In Glacier National Park, Montana, Robert O. Megard

Biology ETDs

Grinnell Lake, Lake Josephine, and Swiftcurrent Lake, at an elevation of approximately 5,000 feet in northwestern Montana, are comparable with lakes in the montane zone defined by Pennak for lakes at elevations between 8,200 feet and 10,500 feet in the Rocky Mountains of northern Colorado. Five species of Copepoda, six Cladocera, and four Ostracoda were collected in the lakes studied. The population of microcrustacea in these lakes was most dense in or slightly above the masses of rooted aquatic vegetation growing to a height of six to 10 inches above the bottom wherever the water was between three feet and …

The Early Basis Of Subsistence Of Indians In The Plains Area, Joe D. Reed

Biology ETDs

The fundamental purpose of this paper is to present the picture of early food economy among the Indians of the Plains. In order to accomplish this task the procedure has been to present: (1) a brief study of the tribal groups with special emphasis upon their early history and movements, followed by (2) a general picture of Plains food economy with regard to the sequence and tribal units. The important subjects within this second category have to do with buffalo utilization, agriculture and the gathering to wild plant food; (3) a listing of the various wild plant and animal foods …
