    Notes: Abstract An experimental investigation of drift macroalgal accumulation in seagrass beds was conducted to determine if the relationship between passively dispersed plant structure and the spatial arrangement of rooted macrophytes differed when examined across two spatial scales. Experiments were performed from December 1992 to April 1993 at four different sites in Tampa Bay, Florida, utilizing artificial seagrass units (ASUs) of uniform shoot length and density but with different areal dimensions [1 m2 (S) versus 4 m2 (L)]. Drift macroalgae were also collected from 1 m×1 m plots of natural seagrass at each of the experimental sites from November 1990 to May 1992 to determine the relationship between macroalgal abundance and structural characteristics of natural seagrass. Disproportionately higher amounts of macroalgae were captured in L compared to S plots suggesting that macroalgal accumulation does not scale up directly with the areal dimensions of ASU patches. Higher amounts of algae recovered in L plots is in accordance with patterns expected if algae accumulate in zones of attenuated water flow. Neither seagrass shoot density nor blade length could adequately describe the patterns of algal accumulation. These combined results suggest that explanations for trapping/retention of passively dispersed particles should extend beyond traditional measures of vegetation complexity.

    Notes: Abstract Δ 9-tetrahydrocannabinol inhibits predatory aggression in rats. Increases in the degree of inhibition are obtained with increasing dosages of the drug. Although sex and strain of the subjects varied nonsystematically, inhibition of predatory aggression uniformly was found to be dose related. Readministration of Δ 9-tetrahydrocannabinol did not effect motor activity measures at dose levels which inhibit aggression. Administration of Δ 9-tetrahydrocannabinol increases whole brain serotonin, while norepinepherine is largely unaffected, indicating that the anti-aggressive effect may be mediated, in part, by serotonergic mechanisms.
