    The Integuments of Whales. (1930)
    [s.l.] : Nature Publishing Group
    Nature 125 (1930), S. 744-744 
    Details
    ISSN: 1476-4687
    Source: Nature Archives 1869 - 2009
    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine , Natural Sciences in General , Physics
    Notes: [Auszug] IN whales the integuments may be supposed to serve a double or treble purpose: the outer layers—the epidermis and the pars papillaris of the dermis or cutis vera protecting the underlying parts, and the deeper—the thick and oily pars reticulata or ‘blubber’ preventing the loss of heat, and at ...

    Details
    ISSN: 1476-4687
    Source: Nature Archives 1869 - 2009
    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine , Natural Sciences in General , Physics
    Notes: [Auszug] MANY questions arising in connexion with whales have yet to be answered satisfactorily; why, for example, do whales recently dead float in some cases, and in others sink? Whales may be attacked with the hand-harpoon, weighing about 10 lb., with the simple gun-harpoon weighing about 12 ...

    Spitsbergen Whale Fishery of the Seventeenth Century. (1930)
    [s.l.] : Nature Publishing Group
    Nature 126 (1930), S. 204-204 
    Details
    ISSN: 1476-4687

    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine , Natural Sciences in General , Physics
    Notes: [Auszug] As is well known, in the seventeenth century a right-whale fishery was prosecuted in the inlets of West Spitsbergen, the whales being caught by boats launched from the shore. Were the whales caught at this fishery Greenland whales, as is asserted, or were they, as seems more likely, Atlantic ...

    The Blubber of Whales (1928)

    Nature 121 (1928), S. 791-792 
    Details
    ISSN: 1476-4687
    Source: Nature Archives 1869 - 2009
    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine , Natural Sciences in General , Physics
    Notes: [Auszug] THE blubber of whales does not appear to have received the attention it deserves; some writers pass it over in silence, others regard it as the mere counterpart of hair and assign to it only a nonconducting function. Unlike the blubber of seals, which is thick at one season and thin at ...

    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine , Natural Sciences in General , Physics
    Notes: [Auszug] THE hydrostatic equipment of the whale would be incomplete without some means of enabling it to alter its buoyancy at will: these means are doubtless the lungs and chest. The lungs and chest of whales are known to be very elastic and capable of great expansion and contraction. When the ...

    The Sleep of Whales (1927)

    ISSN: 1476-4687

    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine , Natural Sciences in General , Physics
    Notes: [Auszug] VERY little is known about the sleep of whales. They seldom sleep at the surface. Scoresby, speaking of the Greenland whale, says: “Whales are seldom found sleeping, yet instances occasionally occur, in calm weather, amongst ice.” I have in my possession a large number of log-books of whaling ...

    ISSN: 1476-4687
    Source: Nature Archives 1869 - 2009
    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine , Natural Sciences in General , Physics
    Notes: [Auszug] THE occurrence of small ice-bergs in the northern part of the Greenland Sea—the strait between Greenland and Spitsbergen—and in the same situation, and also in a lower latitude off the Greenland coast of mud or alluvial matter on the surface of the drifting ice, are facts that appear worthy of ...

    Notes: [Auszug] How far seals and whales migrate north in the summer months is a moot question, but the following facts suggest that the latitude reached in the case of the floe-seal, the narwhal, and the Greenland whale is a high one.The occurrence is recorded, in log-books of whaling vessels in my ...

    Notes: [Auszug] ACCORDING to Mr. N. A. Macintosh (British Association Report, 1928) Blue whales and Fin-whales grow quickly and probably reach maturity in the short space of two years; Mr. Macintosh's statement implies that, in favourable circumstances, these great animals might increase in number fairly ...

    Breeding Habits of the Greenland Whale (1929)

    ISSN: 1476-4687

    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine , Natural Sciences in General , Physics
    Notes: [Auszug] VERY little is known about the breeding habits of the Greenland whale. In the Greenland Sea, according to the log-books of Scoresby Sen., females with calves with them were seldom seen except in spring, west of Spitsbergen, north of latitude 78° or 79°, and in the end of July off the Greenland ...
