    Notes: Abstract A method to evaluate aquatic mortality given a pollutant distribution is presented and applied to several sample low pH plumes representing various ocean CO2 disposal schemes. The method is an improvement over current analysis because it integrates the mortality due to time‐varying exposure to low pH with the probabilistic experiences of passive organisms subject to turbulent lateral diffusion as they pass through the plume. For the examples presented, the plume was discretized laterally into lanes and longitudinally by time steps, and a random walk model accounting for the scale‐dependent nature of relative diffusion was used to simulate the organism pathways over one time step. From these simulations, the probability that an organism will be in a given lane, $$\dot \jmath $$ , one time step after it starts from an initial lane, $$i$$ , was determined for all combinations of $$i$$ and $$\dot \jmath $$ . These probabilities were used to find the number of organisms following each of the possible pathways, and the mortality to the organisms due to their time varying exposure to low pH was determined by using the toxicity model described in part I of this paper. The integrated method allows the impact of the plume to be described in terms of total organism mortality as well as spatial deficit of organisms.

    Notes: Abstract Feasibility studies suggest that the concept of capturing CO2 from fossil fuel power plants and discharging it to the deep ocean could help reduce atmospheric CO2 concentrations. However, the local reduction in seawater pH near the point of injection is a potential environmental impact. Data from the literature reporting on toxicity of reduced pH to marine organisms potentially affected by such a plume were combined into a model expressing mortality as a function of pH and exposure time. Since organisms exposed to real plumes would experience a time‐varying pH, methods to account for a variable exposure were reviewed and a new method developed based on the concept of isomortality. In part II of this paper, the method is combined with a random‐walk model describing the transport of passive organisms through a low pH plume leading to a Monte‐Carlo‐like risk assessment which is applied to several candidate CO2 injection scenarios.

    Transfer constants from complete molecular weight distributions (1996)

    Notes: Transfer constants to chain-transfer agent (CTA) and to monomer can be obtained by consideration of the complete molecular weight distribution, using the slope of a plot of the natural logarithm of number-molecular weight distribution against molecular weight, in the limit of high molecular weight and low radical flux (P. A. Clay, R. G. Gilbert, Macromolecules 28, 552 (1995)). This method is applied to the bulk polymerisations of methyl methacrylate (MMA) with added triethylamine (TEA) and with added tert-dodecylmercaptan (mixture of 2,4,4,6,6-pentamethylheptane-2-thiol and 2,2,4,6,6-pentamethylheptane-4-thiol, TDM). The transfer rate coefficients are found to be 74 (±20) dm3 · mol- · s-l at 60°C for TEA, and 56 (±13) dm3 · mol-1 · s-1 at 25°C for TDM.

    The vagaries of variegating transgenes (1996)

    Notes: Expression of transgenes in mice, when examined with assays that can distinguish individual cells, is often found to be heterocellular, or variegated. Line-to-line variations in expression of a transgene may be due largely to differences in the proportion of cells in which it is expressed. Variegated silencing by centromeric heterochromatin is well described, but other factors may also affect transgene silencing in mice. Tandem arrays of transgenes themselves form heterochromatin, and some cell lineages may tend to silence transgenes because of extensive facultative heterochromatin in their nuclei. The cis-acting transcriptional control elements within a transgene inhibit silencing, and strainspecific differences in chromatin proteins may strongly influence the extent of variegation. The accessibility of multiple differentiated cell lineages in mice suggests that they may provide a tool for dissecting the role of chromatin-mediated silencing in cell differentiation and tissue-specific gene expression.
