    Notes: Abstract During the winters of 1981 and 1982, measurements were taken on two Japanese islands of the aerosol and gaseous species which had been carried by northwesterly monsoons over the Pacific Ocean. The aerosols were characterized as sea-salt particles; soil particles, and as particles of sulfate, nitrate, organics and elemental carbon. At Chichi-jima island, which is about 800 km away from the main islands of Japan, it was found that the level of the anthropogenic components of the aerosols was considerably higher than their background level. The mean concentrations of the species on the islands are given in tabular forms. According to a survey made on board a ferry boat, the aerosol and gaseous species were fairly uniformly distributed along the southern coast of the main Japanese islands.

    Notes: There are two possible mechanisms of effects of large electric fields on animals, one caused by the electric field at the body surface and the other caused by the electric current induced inside the body. The purpose of the present experiments was to investigate the former possibility by recording action potentials from afferent fibers innervating various sensory receptors in the cat's hindlimb. Cat hairs were attracted to the upper electrode when exposed to DC electric fields of 180 kV/m or greater, and action potentials were evoked in the afferent fibers innervating G1, G2, and down hair receptors. No action potentials were evoked in afferent fibers innervating type I, type II, field receptors, muscle spindles, or joint receptors. These results indicate that a strong DC electric field induced movement of the hairs, eventually evoked excitation of the hair receptors, but that other receptors located under the skin were not influenced by electric field exposure.

    Notes: The threshold intensity for detection of an AC electric field was studied in human subjects at several different temperatures and humidities. The dorsum and palm of the hand were exposed to fields, representing hairy and hairless skin, in order to clarify whether hair movement is critical for field detection. Experiments were carried out on human subjects (seven men and four women) during hot humid weather of July-August and dry cool air of October-November. Threshold values obtained in the summer were 30-65 kV/m for the hairy skin on the dorsum of the hand, while for the hairless skin on the palm the threshold was 〉 115 kV/m (highest field available due to limitations of the power supply). During the fall, the threshold was much higher than during the summer. We sought possible reasons for the difference and found that humidity was the main factor. Relative permittivity of woman's hair was then estimated by measuring capacitance of the hairs under dry (35% RH) and wet (85% RH) conditions at 20 °C. The values of relative permittivity obtained under these two conditions differed by several times the average. The differences in detection thresholds may be attributable to the different relative permittivities of the hairs under dry and wet conditions.
