    Notes: Abstract  Trace element geochemistry of humus (〈0.425 mm) and till (〈0.002 mm) collected in the Flin Flon-Snow Lake area, northern Manitoba and Saskatchewan, provides a regional context for assessing smelter contamination in the environment. The area includes a Cu-Zn smelter known to discharge As, Cd, Cu, Fe, Hg, Pb, and Zn. In this study, sequential extraction analyses, scanning electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction analyses were used on a suite of samples to determine: (1) the chemical and physical characteristics of heavy metals in surficial sediments related to distance from the smelter, (2) criteria for assessing the relative contribution of these metals from natural and anthropogenic sources, and (3) the potential of these metals for remobilization in the environment. Humus geochemistry reflects the anthropogenic and natural component of heavy metal concentrations. Smelter-related elements show anomalously high values adjacent to the smelter, decreasing with distance until background values are reached at 70–104 km, depending on the element. In humus, Zn is associated primarily with labile phases; Hg with non-labile phases. Adjacent to the smelter, high proportions and concentrations of Zn and Hg in non-labile phases, indicative of smelter-derived particulates, are confirmed by SEM examination. The particles occur as spheres, irregular grains, and with organics. With increasing distance from the smelter, the geochemical response to bedrock composition is more obvious than the anthropogenic input. Till geochemistry reflects the natural variation imposed by bedrock composition. At highly contaminated sites (〈3 km from the smelter), increased percentages of smelter-related elements in labile phases suggests heavy metals are leached from humus to the underlying sediment.

    Notes: Summary The toxic potential of formaldehyde has recently been widely discussed, including the consequences of its release from certain building materials. The action of methenamine, used in the treatment of urinary infections, is based on the release of formaldehyde in the body. Various aspects of formaldehyde toxicity are discussed as a basis for reevaluation of methenamine and reconsideration of its safety.

    Notes: Claims that Mrs Thatcher's administration is market-based ignore, not least, its protectionist trade policies, recently exemplified in the EEC's inability to sign the GATT agreement. Professor Henderson assesses the Government's disappointing policy record in trade and in industry and energy.

    Notes: The standing crop and distribution of fish within the floating meadow habitat of Lago Mamirauá, an upper Amazonian floodplain lake, were studied during December 1993 when the water was rising and had just begun to enter the forest. The ichthyofauna was dominated by six groups, the Anostomidae, Gymnotiformes, Erythrinidae, Serrasalmidae, Synbranchidae and Cichlidae. For anchored meadow, total wet weight was estimated as 312 kg ha -1 and total number as 90 400 individuals ha-1. This biomass estimate was probably below the annual maximum because some fish had already dispersed into the forest, but, the number of individuals was close to the annual maximum because of the recent arrival of juvenile Serrasalmidae and Cichlidae. For drifting islands of meadow fish biomass and density were estimated as 192kg ha-1 and 12 700 individuals ha-1 respectively. The Synbranchidae, Gymnotiformes and Erythrinidae avoided drifting meadow. In comparison, the Cichlidae and Anostomidae, while favouring marginal, anchored meadow, were frequently dispersed by drifting islands. The Siluriformes were unique in favouring drifting over anchored meadow. For this group the observed down-stream drift may be a seasonal migration to the main river channels. Juvenile fish avoided drifting islands, presumably to avoid being flushed from the lakes. Their abundance was lowest at the mouth of the lake. The generally abundant Serrasalmus spp. juveniles were absent from meadow at the mouth of the lake.

    Notes: The organization and structure of temperate fish communities is discussed. A measure of organization based on the Shannon measure of entropy is applied. It is concluded that the way organization changes with species number reflects the underlying structure of the community. The prediction of fish assemblages by the analysis of individual species requirements is also investigated using fish data sets from regions considered to be undergoing acidification. The species set within a habitat is generated by a set of rules termed the operational niche. It was concluded that an analysis based on physico-chemical conditions within the habitats gave reasonable correspondence between observed and predicted.

    Notes: Herring larvae were sampled in the Outer Thames Estuary and the River Blackwater Estuary in the springs of 1978, 1979 and 1980. Data were collected on larval stage, yolk sac and post yolk sac, larval length and total larval numbers. Newly hatched larvae were 6.8±0.5 mm long and the growth rate of yolk sac larvae was estimated at 0.18 mm d−1 (L= 6.8±0.186t). The growth rate of post yolk sac larvae increased to 0.43mm d−1 (L= 11±48.0±43t). Mortality estimates, derived from total numbers in the summed estuary segments, varied between the years and the cohorts within the year. In 1979 the mortality rates were 0.061 d−1 and 0.074 d−1 for the two cohorts. The mean size of the larval population was estimated at 2.48×109 (1.63–3.77 × 109) which agreed well with population size estimates from egg laying and from catch in numbers at age together with estimated fishing mortality rates.
