    Notes: Abstract Formation constants (K ML) of 1:1 complexes of 15-(2,5-dioxahexyl)-15-methyl-16-crown-5 (L16C5) and 15,15-dimethyl-16-crown-5 (DM16C5) with alkali metal ions were determined in acetonitrile (AN) and propylene carbonate (PC) by conductometry at 25°C. Except for the case of Li+-and K+-16C5 complexes in PC, the selectivity sequences of L16C5 and DM16C5 are identical with those of the parent crown ether 16-crown-5 (16C5) regardless of the solvent (AN, PC, methanol) (Na1 〉 Li+ 〉 K+ 〉 Rb+ 〉 Cs+), which show the size-fit correlation. The selectivities of L16C5 and DM16C5 for the alkali metal ions are governed not by the sidearms but by the cavity size. The stability of the crown ether complex is dependent not on the dielectric constant but largely on the donor number of the solvent. TheK ML(M1 +)/K ML(M2 +) ratio of L16C5 or 16C5 varies very much with the solvent in the cases of M1=Na, M2=K and M1=Na, M2=Li, but that of DM16C5 is almost constant regardless of the solvent.

    Notes: Abstract The density of a Japanese serow (Capricornis crispus) population, which has been in stable habitat conditions and free from hunting and predation, was investigated by direct observation of serows at Kusoudomari (336 ha), Wakinosawa village, Aomori Prefecture, Japan, during 1977–89. The vegetation, composed of mature mixed forest ofThujopsis with deciduous trees (43.2%), secondary forest of deciduous trees (23.4%) and a plantation of coniferous trees (30.0%) showed little change during the study period. The serows were counted 17 times each winter for 14 consecutive years. The serow population maintained a stable density with a mean of 12.5 individuals km−2 (SD=1.4) ranging from 8.6 to 14.6 km−2. The ratio of the proportion of kids (〈1 year old) to serows more than 1 year old decreased, but density did not decrease during the study period. Though extremely severe winters with heavy snowfall in 1984–86 caused a decline in serow density, the density recovered within a few years. It was considered that the stability of the serow density resulted mainly from the stable food supply and the lack of human disturbance, such as forest cutting in the habitat. Stable population density for a long period is probably related to the social organization of the serow.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Population responses of Japanese serow (Capricornis crispus) to clear-cut logging and planted tree growth were studied by a direct count of the number observed in three areas, Takiyama (305 ha), Gentouziro (270 ha), and Tanokashira (324 ha), near Wakinosawa Village, Aomori Prefecture, Japan, during 1976–89. At Takiyama, a mature mixed forest ofThujopsis dolabrata var.hondai andFagus crenata decreased from 73 to 39% coverage of the area due to clear-cutting during 1978–83. The serow population maintained a relatively low stable density (3–6 individuals per km2) until 1985–87, and increased 5–10 years after the clear-cutting, reaching 9–10 km−2 in 1988. At Gentouziro and Tanokashira, young plantations of Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) covered about half of each area. The population densities between 1980 and 1983 were relatively high (14–19 km−2), but declined thereafter, reaching 10–14 km−2 in 1988–89. These results indicated that the density increase resulted from an improvement of food supply due to growth of scrub following the clear-cutting, and that the density decline resulted from a habitat change due to growth of planted Japanese cedar and a decrease in the food supply. In Wakinosawa Village, serow density began to increase 5–10 years after forest cutting, and the high population density, about three- or six-fold larger than that in mature forest, is expected to be maintained for about 20 years after logging.

    Notes: Abstract In an attempt to detect differences in the thermal effect of infrared irradiation of different wavelengths, transient sweating response to infrared irradiation in various spectral regions was examined. In Series 1, the ventral or dorsal surface of the nude subject was irradiated repetitively for a period of 4 min (2 min on, 2 min off) by each of three kinds of infrared heaters with main emissivity in ‘near-infrared’ (NIR; 0.7–2.8 μm), ‘intermediate-infrared’ (MIR; 1.5–5.8 μm), and ‘far-infrared’ (FIR; 2.8–25 μm) regions. The sweating response on a non-irradiated area tended to be the greatest with MIR, while the magnitude of the sweating response on the irradiated area showed no consistent differences among various wavelengths. The results infer that MIR stimulated cutaneous thomoreceptors most effectively, while its direct effect on local sweat gland activity was minimal. In Series 2, the effects of 9–12 min irradiations in more restricted ranges of wavelength were compared by the combination of the three kinds of heaters with filters (translucent to wavelength ranges of 1.3–2.7, 2.7–3.5, 3.6–8.0 μm, respectively). The sweating response on a remote area was predominantly greater with the range of 2.7–3.5 μm than with the other wavelength ranges, while the local effect on sweating was minimal with this range. The results of Series 2 reinforce those of Series 1, indicating that the degree of stimulation of cutaneous thermoreceptors and of direct thermal effect on sweat gland activity differ with spectral regions incident on the skin, thus affecting local and remote effects on the sweating response.

    Notes: Abstract To evaluate skin lipid analysis for the accumulation level of environmental pollutants, the correlations between organochlorine pesticide residues in adipose tissue, blood, and skin lipids of monkeys were studied. The mixture of β-hexachlorocyclohexane (β-HCH), p,p′-DDT, and trans-chlordane was subcutaneously given to monkeys once weekly for 5 weeks at dose levels of 1 and 10 mg/kg. The chemicals distributed in adipose tissue, blood, and skin lipids were determined six times after the last dosing at intervals of 4 to 9 weeks. Oxychlordane and p,p′-DDE were detected in all tissues together with the administered chemicals. In blood and adipose tissue, trans-chlordane decreased rapidly and oxychlordane and p,p′-DDE increased gradually and then remained at constant levels. β-HCH and p,p′-DDT in adipose tissue increased until the 12th week and then decreased in all animals. The correlation coefficients between blood and adipose tissue regardless of dose level and collection time for each chemical ranged from 0.83 to 0.94. Correlation coefficients between skin lipids and adipose tissue varied with the chemical, namely, 0.31, 0.72, 0.81, 0.81, and 0.83 for p,p′-DDE, tras-chlordane, p,p′-DDT, β-HCH, and oxychlordane, respectively. The results indicated that skin lipid analysis may be useful for the evaluation of specific pollutants in the body burden.

    Notes: Summary In this paper we deal with the one of the ways to obtain a free-space Green's function of a transversely isotropic infinite elastic medium which is subjected to a ring-like axisymmetric loading. We assume that the loading is torsionless. To solve the problem, we introduce two potential functions and apply the Hankel and the Fourier transforms. As a special case we solve the same problem of the isotropic medium.

    Notes: Summary In this paper we deal with the formulation of the axisymmetric boundary integral equation for the transversely isotropic elastic body. We assume that the axis of elastic symmetry is coincident with the axis of rotation and that the elastic body is subjected to arbitrary axisymmetric loading without torsion. Numerical calculations are carried out and compared with results by the finite element method.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Basierend auf einer Aufstellung in der Theorie stochastischer Prozesse wurde eine Hauptgleichung für die Größeverteilung eingeführt, die einen Größenminderungsvorgang beschreibt. Unter Anwendung einer absoluten Größenkonstante und eines Skalenkonzeptes kann man zu einer verallgemeinerten Form der Gaudin-Schuhmann-Gleichung und der Rosin-Rammler-Gleichung gelangen und die enge Beziehung der beiden Formeln zeigen. Von einem neuentwickelten Gesichtspunkt aus wird gezeigt, daß die Gaudin-Schuhmann-Gleichung das Gesetz der Selbstähnlichkeit der Verteilung in der Fractaltheorie erfüllt und bei der Bestimmung thermoanalytischer Eigenschaften von Pulvern eine bedeutende Rolle spielt. Als Beispiel wird gezeigt, daß DTA-Kurven gemahlener Dolomitproben durch Unterschiede in der Partikelgrößenverteilung der Probe entscheidend beeinflußt werden. Sowohl die DTA- als auch die TG-Kurven spiegeln die Pulvereigenschaften sehr gut wieder; beide werden deshalb zur Charakterisierung von Pulverproben vorgeschlagen.
    Notes: Abstract Based on a formulation applied in the theory of stochastic processes, a master equation is introduced for the size distribution which describes a size reduction process. Using an absolute size constant and a scaling concept, we can get a generalized form of the Gaudin-Schuhmann equation and of the Rosin-Rammler equation for size-reduced products and show the intimate relationship between these two formulae. From a newly developed fractal point of view, it is shown that the Gaudin-Schuhmann equation satisfies a self-similarity law of distribution in the fractal theory and plays an important role in determining the thermoanalytical properties of a powder. As an illustration, DTA curves for ground dolomites are shown to be greatly influenced by the difference in particle size distribution of the sample. The DTA curves as well as the TG curves reflect well the powder characteristics; the TG-DTA curves are therefore suggested as being useful for characterizing powder samples.

    Notes: Abstract Dielectric relaxation spectra of poly(bis-trifluoroethoxy phosphazene) (PBFP), poly(bis-n-propoxy phosphazene) (PBPP), and poly(bis-n-propylamino phosphazene) (PBPAP) were measured in wide temperature and frequency regions, and the α-relaxation caused by micro-Brownian motion of segments in the rubbery state and the β-relaxation due to the local motions of the polymer in the glassy region were observed. The dielectric spectra of PBFP at temperatures higher than the rubbery region exhibited a mesophase transition at 358 K. From conformation analysis according to the two-site model, it has been elucidated that the mechanism for β-relaxation of these samples is hindered internal rotation of the side groups.
