    Notes: A new throttling flow calorimeter has been incorporated into the recycle facility of the Thermal Properties Laboratory. Energy is added to the expanding gas while it flows through a stainless steel capillary tubing from an insulated resistance wire located inside the entire length of the capillary. The calorimeter is designed to operate at pressures up to 2,000 lb./sq.in.abs. in the temperature range from -240 to +250°F.Data on the isothermal effect of pressure on enthalpy for a mixture containing 5 mole % propane in methane are presented and compared with data from the literature.

    Description: The Aguas/Feos river system of the Sorbas Basin, SE Spain was captured by an aggressive subsequent stream c. 100 ka. The consequence of the capture event was twofold: (1) basin-scale drainage reorganization via beheading of the southward flowing Aguas/Feos system and re-routing the drainage eastwards into the Vera Basin; and (2) the creation of a new, lower base level and associated upstream propagation of a wave of incision. The sequence of pre- and post-capture events are well established from previous studies of the Quaternary terrace record. Using these studies, this paper makes the first attempt to quantify the impact of river capture in terms of spatial and temporal variations in rates of incision, sediment flux and surface lowering. This was carried out through construction of 43 valley cross-sections from the captured' (Upper Aguas), beheaded' (Feos) and capturing' streams (Lower Aguas) within the central-southern parts of the Sorbas Basin. Dated pre- and post-capture terrace and corresponding strath levels were plotted on to the valley cross-sections enabling incision amounts, rates and valley cross-sectional areas to be calculated. Sediment fluxes were calculated using a mean valley section method. Surface lowering calculations were made through reconstruction of the top basin-fill surface and subtraction from the modern contour values. The lowering of base level has resulted in a dramatic increase in incision upstream of the capture site by a factor of 4 to 20. This in turn has been associated with significant pre- and post-capture changes in valley shape. The increased incision resulted in dramatic post-capture increases in valley erosion upstream and downstream of the capture site by a factor of 2 to 9 which can be related to changes in associated stream power as a function of increased gradient and discharge. In excess of 60% of the landscape change can be accounted for by valley-constrained erosion as opposed to overall surface lowering.

    Description: Landslides can be mapped for purely academic reasons to understand their nature and properties, or for engineering purposes because they constitute a hazard to an existing human activity or a proposed development. The scale of the mapping to be carried out will be influenced by the requirements of the investigation. For engineering investigations large-scale mapping (〉1:10000) is generally the most appropriate whereas for academic studies smaller-scale mapping can be just as valuable as it can reveal much about the role landsliding has in overall landscape development. In this paper three examples of mapping landslides at different scales are presented and the implications for the mapping procedures employed are explored. These examples are: (1) large-scale mapping of an active landslide affecting a road and mobile home site on the SW coast of the Isle of Wight, UK; (2) medium-scale mapping of landslides in the proximity of a river capture site in SE Spain; (3) small-scale mapping of large coastal landslides in northern Chile and the implications for mass sediment transfer along an active subduction margin. All three mapping programmes had a clear focus and intent but the method employed varied with the purpose of the investigation and the scale of the mapping that was carried out. It was concluded that it is important for any landslide mapping programme to have clearly identified objectives from the outset if time, and money, is not be wasted. However, even in site-specific investigations it is imperative for landslides to be seen in the wider context of their geomorphological situation with their role in landscape development assessed so as to understand the likelihood and potential magnitude of any hazards.

    Description: Lithology is acknowledged to be an important internal catchment control on flow processes to adjacent alluvial fans. However, the role of inherited structural configurations (e.g. bedrock attitude) in catchment connectivity and sediment transport is rarely considered. We examine four young (〈100-year-old) active tributary junction alluvial fan systems from the Dadès Valley in the High Atlas of Morocco in terms of their catchment-scale connectivity, sediment transfer and resulting alluvial fan processes. The catchments occur on the same lithologies (limestones and interbedded mudstones), but experience different passive structural configurations (tilted and structurally thickened beds). The fan systems react differently to historical peak discharges (20–172 m 3 s –1 ). Catchments containing tectonically thickened limestone units develop slot canyons, which compartmentalize the catchment by acting as barriers to sediment transfer, encouraging lower sediment to water flows on the fans. Syn-dip catchments boost connectivity and sediment delivery from translational bedrock landslides as a result of steep channel gradients, encouraging higher sediment to water flows. By contrast, translational landslides in strike-oriented drainages disrupt longitudinal connectivity by constricting the valley width, while the gradients of the main channels are supressed by the attitude of the limestone beds, encouraging localized backfilling. This diminishes the sediment to water content of the resulting flows.

    Description: Latin America has experienced two of the largest cholera epidemics in modern history; one in 1991 and the other in 2010. However, confusion still surrounds the relationships between globally circulating pandemic Vibrio cholerae clones and local bacterial populations. We used whole-genome sequencing to characterize cholera across the Americas over a 40-year time span. We found that both epidemics were the result of intercontinental introductions of seventh pandemic El Tor V. cholerae and that at least seven lineages local to the Americas are associated with disease that differs epidemiologically from epidemic cholera. Our results consolidate historical accounts of pandemic cholera with data to show the importance of local lineages, presenting an integrated view of cholera that is important to the design of future disease control strategies.
