    Notes: Recently developed effective stress-controlled geophysical property models are used in passive-margin slope instability analyses including simulated earthquake motion. The pressure–temperature (P–T) history of sediment-hosted gas hydrate may significantly alter the geophysical property profile of the sediment column (e.g. metastable cement or increased pore pressures). This can result in significant amplification of earthquake ground motion, and thus seabed instability, where hydrates are present. Published studies suggest destabilization of these high-pressure/low-temperature sediment-hosted hydrates could trigger catastrophic slope failures with consequent liberation of ‘greenhouse’ gases and significant effects on global climate. To provide improved ground models for slope instability analyses we are investigating the influence of P–T history on hydrate distribution in sediments through the development of laboratory techniques to enable geophysical quantification of hydrate morphology and fabric on hydrate stability.

    Notes: [Auszug] FLYING swarms of locusts often cannot be effectively attacked from the air because of the danger to the aircraft. Attention is therefore focused on the circumstances in which a swarm will remain on the ground. In Kenya the desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria (Forsk.), roosts overnight in trees ...

    Notes: [Auszug] WHEN writing the book referred to by Dr. Kennedy, we were frequently faced with the alternatives of inventing new technical terms (which are often resented by the people who have to learn and use them) and of using common words in newly defined ways (which causes trouble because it is difficult ...

    Notes: [Auszug] THE most commonly effective method of destroying locusts at present is to poison the hoppers (nymphs) before they can fly. Some kind of bait, such as moistened bran, which is eaten in preference to other food, is poisoned with benzene hexachloride (hexachlorocyclohexane, 'Gammexane', 'Benhex') and ...

    Notes: Summary 1. An apparatus is described in which a steady temperature gradient can be maintained and in which conditions of temperature and humidity can be accurately measured. 2. The preferred temperature range (indifference zone) of normal adult male Blatta orientalis in this apparatus is 20–29 ° C. 3. The indifference zone is not altered by changes in the humidity of the air. 4. Specimens desiccated to 70% of their original weight show a much lower preferred temperature, namely 12–23 ° C. 5. This is interpreted as a reaction to a gradient of saturation deficiency, an avoiding reaction against air of higher evaporating power.

    Notes: [Auszug] IT has been shown by Ullyott1 that the aggregation reaction of the flatworm, Dendroccelum lacteum, in a gradient of light intensities, can be described in terms of the rate of change of direction and the process of sensory adaptation in the eyes. This reaction has since been ...

    Notes: [Auszug] MR. YAPP'S communication on this subject1 is of considerable interest because it suggests that temperature may be a more suitable stimulus than pH for making a quantitative investigation of klino-kinesis in Paramecium. A quantitative study is required to discover how completely ...
