    Notes: SYNOPSIS. The behavior of the amoeba H. castellanii was investigated in various carbon and nitrogen deficient media with a view to developing a satisfactory replacement medium for the study of encystment and excystment. Media which had been devised for other soil amoebae did not cause H. castellanii to encyst. In these media there was an efflux of material from the cells which was independent of osmolarity but which was minimized by the addition of magnesium. Maximal encystment occurred in a medium containing magnesium chloride alone.The cysts produced in the magnesium chloride replacement medium are viable and readily excyst when resuspended in the growth medium. The cysts contain cellulose, which is not present in the vegetative amoebae, and differ from the amoebae in their greater resistance to induced lysis and mechanical injury.

    Notes: : In order to determine design capacities for various components of municipal and rural domestic water supply systems, engineers must estimate water requirements for an entire year (water rights), for the peak season (reservoir storage), for the peak day (pump or treatment plant size), and for peak hour (pipeline sizes). Historically, per capita water use rates have varied greatly between systems, particularly in semiarid regions where outdoor demands are large. The resulting uncertainty in design capacity estimates can cause either inadequate capacities or premature investment. In order to minimize that uncertainty multiple regression and frequency analyses were made of the various water demand parameters mentioned above for 14 systems in Utah and Colorado. Specifically, demand functions are reported for average month, peak month, and peak day. Peak hour demands were also studied but are reported in a different paper. The independent variables which were significant for monthly and daily demands were price of water and an outdoor use index which includes the effect of variation in landscaped area and accounts for use of supplementary ditch or pressure irrigation systems. The demand functions were developed with data from systems varying in size from very small low density rural systems to Salt Lake City's water system. The correlation coefficients (R2) vary from 0.80 to 0.95.

    Notes: : Errors inherent in the conputation of water surface profiles are magnified by the shallow lateral slopes typical of most flood-plains, producing significant floodplain mapping errors. An economic optimization procedure which weighs the cost of overstating the location of a floodplain boundary against the cost of understanding the location provides a means for establishing the boundary location. In most cases the cost of overstating the boundary location exceeds the cost of understating the location by several magnitudes so that the boundary location should coincide with the minimum water surface elevation which would be expected to result from a flood of specified recurrence interval.

    Notes: Although the volume of potable water used at recreation developments is minor relative to total regional water use, very high quality is required and the source is often of limited capacity, such as a mountain spring or small local aquifer. Frequent confrontations between developers and regulatory agencies result from claims by developers that water demand will be very small while regulators tend to treat such developments the same as municipal residence. Almost no published data base exists for resolving such conflicts. Included here are: 1) Water use measurements of various peak period durations (seasonal, monthly, daily, and instantaneous) at several types of recreational developments in Utah and Wyoming (mountain cabins, both ski- and water-based condominiums, and recreation vehicle campgrounds), 2) statistical (frequency) analysis of the data and a comparison with municipal demands in the same region, and 3) analysis of occupancy rates at the various categories of developments.

    Notes: The Brabender Farinograph with a burr mill accessory was modified to measure the work in joules to grind 25–55g of wheat and to provide a digital readout of the data. Temperature (18–20°C), protein content (10.5–15.9%), kernel size, and growth location had little effect on the results, but the work required to grind wheat increased with increasing moisture content (7–13%). The average work was 530 joules (standard deviation 3.3) for 60 samples of a soft white winter wheat and 880 joules (standard deviation 5.3) for 60 samples of a very hard red winter wheat. The method may be suitable for distinguishing between hard and soft wheats.

    Notes: The Brabender automatic micro hardness tester was used to measure the time required to grind 4g of wheat. Effects of temperature and moisture were determined. Increasing temperature from 15 to 40°C generally decreased grinding time, but differentiation among samples was better at 15°C than at higher temperatures. Increasing moisture content increased the grinding time of soft wheat much more than it increased the grinding time of hard wheat. The tester can detect differences related to milling properties of hard wheats, hardness among some wheat classes and among some varieties representing a single class of wheat. The instrument can also be used to evaluate hardness of plant-breeders' samples, so that selections with extreme hardness or softness can be discarded, and to distinguish between hard and soft wheats in marketing channels.

    Notes: SYNOPSIS. Some aspects of the physiology of encystment of the soil amoeba Hartmannella castellanii in a replacement encystment medium consisting of 5 × 10-2 M MgCl2 have been investigated. It is suggested that measurement of the cellulose produced during encystment in the synthesis of the cyst wall is a more reliable measure of the process than other methods tried.The degree of encystment was dependent on the physiologic state of the amoebae and the composition of the growth medium, but the initial pH of the encystment medium (C. 4.0-8.5) had little effect on the process. The requirement for Mg during encystment was probably not due to its deficiency during growth. Encystment was inhibited to varying extents by inhibitors of protein synthesis, tetracycline and chloramphenicol and also by arsenate, arsenite and iodoacetate; sodium fluoride, malonate and 2, 4-dinitrophenol were without marked effect.Addition of glucose and α-ketoglutarate to the replacement medium led to improvement in the encystment response. The presence of glutamate and histidine during encystment led to cell death. Other carbon and nitrogen sources had no effect.During encystment there was an increase in the metabolic activity of the amoebae, as measured by their oxygen consumption. This was accompanied by a decrease of about 40% in cellular dry weight and protein content. Of the other chemical components, there were marked initial increases in the levels of total carbohydrates and pentose which were followed by their depletion during cellulose synthesis.Encystment was completed after about 64 hr when the synthesis of cellulose was complete and the oxygen uptake of the amoebae fell to an immeasurable level.

    Notes: SUMMARY. A method is described whereby ephippia (sexual eggs plus protective membranes) are experimentally induced at low food levels (≤ 0.05 mg spinach D. magna-1), high female culture-densities (≤ 0.4 D. magna ml-1) and in short-day photoperiods (L:D 〈 12:12, 12°C). The density-dependent ephippial response was related to an increased encounter rate between females at the higher densities. External metabolites had no significant effect on ephippia production. Ephippia were formed in the second generation after exposure to short day-lengths. Five clones from the same population exhibited genetic variation in their critical photoperiods for induction of sexual reproduction (≥= 10% ephippia). There was evidence of a genetic difference in photoresponse between two populations of D. magna. The evolution of timing mechanisms for ephippia production are discussed in relation to the predictability of environmental change.
