    Notes: Abstract Starting in June 1983, 25 species of hermatypic corals, gorgonians, hydrocorals, anemones and zoanthids in the San Blas Islands, Panama, began showing signs of a loss of colour leading in some cases to a white “bleached” appearance. Histologic examination of six coral species indicated that bleaching was associated with drastic reductions in the density of zooxanthellae and with the atrophy and necrosis of the animal tissue. The severity of the bleaching varied among species and many species were unaffected. The species most extensively affected were: Agaricia spp., which became completely bleached and frequently died; Montastraea annularis which bleached and continued to survive; and Millepora spp. which bleached white but quickly regained their colouration. Shallow reefs dominated by Agaricia spp. suffered the most extensive bleaching. At one site, Pico Feo, 99% of the Agaricia (32% of the living cover) was bleached. On fore reers, which were dominated by Agaricia spp. and M. annularis, the proportion of M. annularis bleached ranged from 18 to 100% and that of Agaricia spp. from 30 to 53%. Transects at Sail Rock and House Reef were surveyed in August 1983 and January 1984. At those sites, 53% of the Agaricia cover died between August and January. The remaining living cover of Agaricia and of all other species exhibited normal colouration in January. Salinity and temperature were monitored every second day at 4 m depth between May 10 and August 28, 1983 at one of the localities. Bleaching was first observed within two weeks of a 2 °C rise in temperature which occurred in late May 1983. Temperatures remained at or above 31.5 °C for the following 3 weeks and were at or above 30 °C for an additional 4 weeks. The bleaching of corals in the San Blas was most likely due to those elevanted temperatures.

    Notes: Abstract Various instruments were used to observe the solar corona near or at the time of total eclipse, 31 July, 1981. The High Altitude Observatory (HAO) coronal eclipse camera and the MK-III K-coronameter recorded the lower portions of the corona; the distribution of white light material above 3 R ⊙ was observed with the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) satellite coronagraph on P78-1. These data sets are used to describe coronal structure and to identify coronal active regions. The polar coronal holes, as developed at this time in the solar cycle, were offset from the poles of rotation; both were seen displaced eastward on eclipse day. High latitude streamers appear in all three data sets, extending from the base of the corona outward to at least eight solar radii from Sun center. At least two transients were observed by the NRL experiment on the eclipse day, but it is likely that no transient was in progress during any observation along the eclipse path. A distribution of the white-light corona, derived from synoptic K-coronameter data, is given.

    Notes: Abstract We use a variety of ground-based and satellite measurements to identify the source of the ground level event (GLE) beginning near 06∶30 UT on 21 August, 1979 as the 2B flare with maximum at ∼06∶15 UT in McMath region 16218. This flare differed from previous GLE-associated flares in that it lacked a prominent impulsive phase, having a peak ∼9 GHz burst flux density of only 27 sfu and a ≳20 keV peak hard X-ray flux of ≲3 × 10-6 ergs cm-2s-1. Also, McMath 16218 was magnetically less complex than the active regions in which previous cosmic-ray flares have occurred, containing essentially only a single sunspot with a rudimentary penumbra. The flare was associated with a high speed (≳700 km s-1) mass ejection observed by the NRL white light coronagraph aboard P78-1 and a shock accelerated (SA) event observed by the low frequency radio astronomy experiment on ISEE-3.

    Notes: Abstract We attempt to study the origin of coronal shocks by comparing several flare characteristics for two groups of flares: those with associated metric type II bursts and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and those with associated metric type II bursts but no CMEs. CMEs accompany about 60% of all flares with type II bursts for solar longitudes greater than 30°, where CMEs are well observed with the NRL Solwind coronagraph. Hα flare areas, 1–8 Å X-ray fluxes, and impulsive 3 cm fluxes are all statistically smaller for events with no CMEs than for events with CMEs. It appears that both compact and large mass ejection flares are associated with type II bursts. The events with no CMEs imply that at least many type II shocks are not piston-driven, but the large number of events of both groups with small 3 cm bursts does not support the usual assumption that type II shocks are produced by large energy releases in flare impulsive phases. The poor correlation between 3 cm burst fluxes and the occurrence of type II bursts may be due to large variations in the coronal Alfvén velocity.

    Notes: Abstract Multi-telescope observations of the coronal transient of 15–16 April, 1980 provide simultaneous data from the Solar Maximum Mission Coronagraph/Polarimeter, the Solwind Coronagraph, and the new Emission Line Coronagraph of the Sacramento Peak Observatory. An eruptive prominence-associated white light transient is for the first time seen as an unusual wave or brightening in Fe x gl6374 (but not in Fe xiv gl5303). Several interpretations of this fleeting enhancement are offered. The prominence shows a slowly increasing acceleration which peaks at the time of the Fe event. The white light loop transient surrounding the prominence expands at a well-documented constant speed to 10R ⊙, with an extrapolated start time at zero height coincident with the surface activity. This loop transient exemplifies those seen above 1.7R ⊙ in that leading the disturbance is a bright (N e-enhanced) loop rather than dark. This is consistent with a report of the behavior of another eruptive event observed by Fisher and Poland (1981) which began as a density depletion in the lower corona, with a bright loop forming at greater altitudes. The top of the bright loop ultimately fades in the outer corona while slow radial growth continues in the legs.

    Notes: Summary Phosphatidylserine was found to significantly enchance the binding of phospholipid vesicles to RAW264 macrophages. We have measured the kinetics of non-specific uptake of unilamellar vesicles as a function of phosphatidylserine concentration in these model target membranes. Dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine was the principle component of these phospholipid vesicles. In most experiments, radiolabeled phospholipid and 1 mol % each of both a fluorescent phospholipid and a hapten-containing lipid headgroup were utilized. In the presence of specific anti-hapten antibody phosphatidylserine-containing vesicles are rapidly taken up via phagocytosis. The antibody-independent non-specific uptake of phosphatidylserine-free vesicles was low, as previously reported. However, the presence of 5 mol % phosphatidylserine dramatically enhanced the uptake of phospholipid vesicles by macrophages. This uptake was shown to be principally due to binding to the macrophage surface. Incubation of macrophages in the presence of sodium azide or at 4°C, conditions which are known to inhibit phagocytosis, do not influence the uptake of the lipid vesicles. Fluorescence video-intensification microscopy was used to observe the interaction of carboxyfluorescein-loaded vesicles with macrophages. Fluorescence could not be observed when using phosphatidylserine-free vesicles. However, phosphatidylserine-containing vesicles can be observed bound to the cell periphery. Intracellular fluorescence could not be observed. The binding of phosphatidylserine-containing vesicles was enhanced roughly four-fold over phosphatidylserine because the effect could not be observed with membranes containing 1 mol % or 2.5 mol% phosphatidylserine. In addition, the binding enhancement required the presence of divalent cations in the incubation medium.

    Notes: Summary Field experiments were carried out using15N-labelled calcium nitrate, to investigate the relative uptake by barley of fertilizer-N and soil-N. On imperfectly drained till soils uptake of soil-N increased with increasing rate of fertilizer, but remained constant on a brown sand, possibly due to more efficient root exploration in the latter soil. In four out of five seasons, late uptake of soil-derived N was a major feature, and uptake from ploughed soil as compared with uptake from direct-drilled soil was correlated with seasonal rainfall patterns. Significantly higher quantities of both fertilizer- and soil-derived N were taken up by winter barley than by spring barley, reflecting the longer growth period and higher dry matter yield from the former crop.
