    Notes: Abstract Using prawns, Palaemon elegans (Rathke) from intertidal pools on the Isle of Cumbrae, Scotland, and P. serratus (Pennant) from the subtidal at Plymouth, England, some metabolic responses to hypoxia and anoxia have been studied. P. elegans was found to have a greater tolerance of severe hypoxia than P. serratus. Tolerance of totally anoxic conditions, however, was limited to only 4 h in P. elegans and to approximately 1 h in P. serratus. exposure to moderate hypoxia (30 torr) resulted in little change in the concentration of L-lactate in the blood or in the tissues of either P. elegans or P. serratus. When exposed to extreme hypoxia (10 or 5 torr for P. elegans), however, there was a progressive increase in the concentration of L-lactate in the blood and in the tissues of both species. After normoxic conditions had been restored, the concentration of L-lactate in the blood and in the tissues returned to normal resting levels more rapidly in P. elegans than in P. serratus. Under hypoxic conditions, both P. elegans and P. serratus showed an increase in the concentration of blood glucose and a slight reduction in the glycogen content of the tissues. The concentrations of blood glucose and of tissue glycogen returned to normal levels within 6 h of the prawns being returned to normoxic conditions. The results of an in situ study in April and August 1986 to examine the metabolic responses of P. elegans to the hypoxic conditions normally experienced in high-shore rock pools are also presented. The ecological significance of the differing abilities of these species to survive hypoxic exposure is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract Procedures which allow the correlation of velocity signals from a laser anemometer and temperature signals from a compensated, small-diameter thermocouple are described together with the error sources associated with the use of the technique in premixed flames. The digital compensation procedure includes the effect of velocity and temperature on the time constant of the thermocouple and the influence of its exposure to the solid particles required by the laser anemometer are quantified and shown to be able to cause large differences in the measured probability-density-distribution of the reaction progress variable. The technique has been used to measure the probability-density-distribution of temperatures, conditioned by the arrival of velocity signals and velocity conditioned by the temperature signal and sample results are presented to help quantify the accuracy of the measurements.

    Notes: Summary Patients with ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) develop specific chromosome translocations, which may confer a proliferative advantage, resulting in the appearance of large clones in the peripheral blood lymphocytes. These lymphocytes are not malignant. Using in situ hybridisation techniques we have investigated a consistent 14q11 translocation break-point observed in a t(X;14)(q28;q11) translocation clone from each of two different patients and a t(14;14)(q11;q32) clone from a third patient. In all cases the chromosome translocation involved breakage within the α chain locus of the T cell receptor (TCRα), between the variable and constant regions, at 14q11. Chromosome rearrangement involving breakage within TCRα can therefore precede the development of malignancy. Further chromosomal rearrangement may be required in these patients, for progression to the leukaemic state.

    Notes: Summary Subcortical connections of the superior colliculus were investigated in albino and pigmented rats using retrograde and anterograde tracing with horseradish peroxidase (HRP), following unilateral injection of HRP into the superior colliculus. Afferents project bilaterally from the parabigeminal nuclei, the nucleus of the optic tract, the posterior pretectal region, the dorsal part of the lateral posterior-pulvinar complex and the ventral nucleus of the lateral lemniscus; and ipsilaterally from the substantia nigra pars reticulata, the pars lateralis of the ventral lateral geniculate nucleus, the intergeniculate leaflet, the zona incerta, the olivary pretectal nucleus, the nucleus of the posterior commissure, the lateral thalamus, Forel's field H2, and the ventromedial hypothalamus. Collicular efferents terminate ipsilaterally in the anterior, posterior and olivary pretectal nuclei, the nuclei of the optic tract and posterior commissure, the ventrolateral part of the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus, the pars lateralis of the ventral lateral geniculate nucleus, the intergeniculate leaflet, and the zona incerta; and bilaterally in the parabigeminal nuclei and lateral posterior-pulvinar complex (chiefly its dorsal part). The general topographical patterns of some of the afferent and efferent projections were also determined: the caudal and rostral parts of the parabigeminal nucleus project to the caudal and rostral regions, respectively, of the superior colliculus; caudal superior colliculus projects to the most lateral, and lateral superior colliculus to the most caudal part of the terminal field in the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus; caudolateral superior colliculus projects to the caudal ventrolateral part of the ventral lateral geniculate nucleus, while rostromedial parts of the colliculus project more rostrally and dorsomedially. Following comparable injections in pigmented and albino animals, fewer retrogradely labelled cells were found in subcortical structures in the albino than in the pigmented rats. The difference was most marked in nuclei contralateral to the injected colliculus. Thus, the effects of albinism on the nervous system may be more widespread than previously thought.

    Notes: The inelastic incoherent neutron scattering spectrum of chromous acid, at 77 K, is presented. It is dominated by the intense bending mode at 1254 cm−1 with some modes at lower frequencies showing indications of dispersion. The antisymmetric stretch νas(OHS) {||1〉-||2〉} was assigned to a broad band centered at ∼2050 cm−1, significantly displaced for the IR assignment (1650 cm−1). The breadth of the band is due to the dispersion, and kinematic coupling, that is anticipated for this compound. These new data allows us to fit chromous acid more clearly into the general trend of hydrogen bonded compounds. Chromous acid compares very well in its overall INS spectrum with the isomorphous sodium bifluoride, except that the kinematic coupling between νas(OHO) and the symmetric stretch does not occur in this compound.

    Notes: : The delineation of high flood hazard zones within a flood plain is usually independent of the hydraulic parameters that constitute a life threatening situation. In order to define human instability in high hazard areas, a study was conducted to identify when an adult human could not stand or maneuver in a simulated flood flow. An analysis was performed on a rigid body monolith resulting in a toppling hazard envelope curve (velocity vs. depth). A 120 lb monolith was then constructed and tested to relate the actual flow velocity and depth at toppling to theory. A series of human subjects (90–201 Ibs) were placed in a recirculating flume and tested to determine the velocity and depth of flow that caused their instability.The test results determined that the product number, which is the product of the velocity and depth at toppling of the monolith, closely compared to the theoretical envelope curve. The monolith results represent the lower limit of human stability. Also, the product number appeared to be a predictor of human instability in flood flow. A relationship was developed to estimate the product number at which a human subject becomes unstable as a function of the height and weight of the subject.

    Notes: Observations have been made on the mode of burrow construction in the snake blenny, Lumpenus lampretaeformis, under laboratory conditions. It appears that head probing and lateral oscillations of the body are principally responsible for the excavation of the burrow which is completed within 24 h. The burrow structure has been analysed in detail, showing a mean depth of 7.2 cm with a maximum observed length of 73 cm, with most systems between 20 and 35 cm in length. Initially linear burrows with two openings are usually provided with a small side tunnel, giving the system a characteristic Y-shape.Burrow irrigation was investigated for the first time in L. lampretaeformis. The mean duration of burrow irrigation, by flexions of the tail of the fish, was 21 s with over 13 min h−1 spent in irrigating the burrow. The mean water displacement per irrigation period was 3.1 ml. The PO2 and PCO2 were measured in both surface water and within the burrow system of L. lampretaeformis. Surface water values for PO2 were high (〉 150 Torr) and PCO2 low (〈0.4 Torr). Hypoxic and hypercapnic conditions were measured in the burrow system itself, with PO2 values ranging between 57 and 129 Torr and PCO2 rising to 〉 1.3 Torr in some burrows.A comparative study of Cepola rubescens burrows indicated similar surface water PO2 and PCO2 values as in L. lampretaeformis. Burrow water PO2 values ranged between 60 and 94 Torr, with PCO2 values as high as 1.5 Torr being recorded. These results are discussed in relation to the adaptation of both species to a burrowing lifestyle.

    Notes: The steady-state and dynamic gain characteristics in a KrF amplifier are studied with the use of 1 ps pulses. A saturation energy density in the range 1.8–2.0±0.2 mJ/cm2 is measured. The recovery of the small-signal gain coefficient exhibits two recovery processes with time constants of 67±10 ps and 2.0±0.2 ns.
