    Description / Table of Contents: Summary The enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD, E.C. 1.15.1.1.) was investigated electrophoretically in 196 muscle-, heart- and liver samples of red deer from the forest Reinhardswald, a game preserve in Hessen, Western Germany. The banding patterns in the electropherograms can be interpreted as products of two loci, one of them coding for an enzyme of dimeric quarternary structure. The observed genotypic distribution does not fit Hardy-Weinberg expectations. An excess of heterozygotes is observed. This phenomenon is explained by a sample bias caused by deer management. This study is the basis for further wide ranging investigations, intended to evaluate consequences of wildlife management on the genetic structure of this deer population.
    Abstract: Résumé L'enzyme Superoxiddismutase (SOD, E.C. 1.15.1.1.) a été étudié par électrophorèse continue et focalisation isoélectrique de 196 échantillons d'organes de cerfs provenant de la Réserve cynégétique de la Reinhardswald en Hesse. Les bandes électrophorétiques-types peuvent être interprétées comme étant le résultat de l'action de deux loci, le locus 1 codant un enzyme avec structure quaternaire dimérique. Un test de χ2 révèle que les fréquences observées du génotype s'écartent significativement des fréquences attendues, avec un excédent des hétérozygotes. Cette situation s'explique par le lâcher de cerfs hongrois dans la population autochtone avec, à chaque fois, des fréquences alléliques opposées et un tir sélectif. Ces recherches serviront à fonder des recherches ultérieures sur cette population en faisant appel à d'autres iso-enzymes afin de suivre les effets de la gestion cynégétique sur des paramètres génétiques.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Das Enzym Superoxiddismutase (SOD, E.C. 1.15.1.1.) wurde mittels der kontinuierlichen Elektrophorese und der isoelektrischen Fokussierung anhand von 196 Rotwild-Organproben aus dem Wildschutzgebiet Reinhardswald/Hessen untersucht. Das Bandenmuster im Elektropherogramm kann als das Produkt zweier Loci interpretiert werden, wobei Genort-1 ein Enzym mit dimerer Quartärstruktur codiert. Im Chi2-Test zeigt sich eine signifikante Abweichung der beobachteten von den erwarteten Genotyphäufigkeiten, ein Überschuß an Heterozygoten wurde beobachtet. Dieser Zustand ist durch das Aussetzen von ungarischem Rotwild in die autochthone Population mit jeweils entgegengerichteten Allelfrequenzen und selektivem Abschuß erklärbar. Die Untersuchungen dienen als Grundstein für nachfolgende Untersuchungen an dieser Population unter Verwendung weiterer Isoenzyme, um Auswirkungen des jagdlichen Managements auf genetische Parameter zu verfolgen.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary In order to determine the genetic variability of fallow deer in hunting districts in Northrhine-Westphalia, 6 isoenzyme systems from liver tissue of 56 sample animals were analyzed using gel electrophoresis. Of the 11 gene loci studied, 8 were monomorphic. The average heterozygotic rate of all populations was 1.4 %, the average number of alleles per gene loci was 1.37. No significant differences were found among the populations. Measures concerning the management of fallow deer for hunting are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract Conventional design practice aims at obtaining optimal estimates of floods with specified exceedance probabilities. Such estimates are, however, known on the average to be exceeded more frequently than expected. Alternatively, methods focusing on the expected exceedance probability can be used. Two different methods are considered here; the first is based on the sample distribution of true exceedance probabilities. The second is a Bayesian analogue using the likelihood function and a noninformative prior to describe the variability of exceedance probabilities. Appropriate analytical solutions are presented in both cases using the partial duration series approach.

    Notes: Abstract A vivariate probability density function (pdf),f(x 1,x 2), admissible for two random variables (X 1,X 2), is of the form $$f(x_1 x_2 ) = f_1 (x_1 )f_2 (x_2 )[1 + \rho \{ F_1 (x_1 ),F_2 (x_2 )\} ]$$ where ρ(u, v) (u=F 1(x 1),v=F 2(x 2)) is any function on the unit square that is 0-marginal and bounded below by−1 andF 1(x 1) andF 2(x 2) are cumulative distribution functions (cdf) of marginal probability density functionsf 1(x 1) andf 2(x 2). The purpose of this study is to determinef(x 1,x 2) for different forms of ρ(u,v). By considering the rainfall intensity and the corresponding depths as dependent random variables, observed and computed probability distributionsF 1(x 1),F(x 1/x 2),F 2(x 2), andF(x 2/x 1) are compared for various forms of ρ(u,v). Subsequently, the best form of ρ(u,v) is specified.

    Notes: Abstract The method of Relative Entropy with Fractile constraints (REF method) is explained and applied to model extreme compound hydrological phenomena, such as extreme sea levels under storm conditions. Also presented is a simple method of Tail Entropy Approximation (TEA), which amounts to a correction of traditional statistical estimates for extreme observations. Distribution assumptions are necessary but downplayed in the REF method, relegating the prior distribution to the role of an extrapolation function. The estimates are objective in an information-theoretical sense. They also satisfy a strict requirement of self-consistency that is generally not satisfied by standard statistical methods: invariance under monotonic transformations of the random variable. Historical records of storm surge levels in the Netherlands and annual maximum tidal heights for Sheerness, UK, are used as examples. Comparison is made with distributions obtained using other methods. It is concluded that the tail entropy approximation provides simple, objective estimates of extremes in the tail beyond the range of observations.

    Notes: Abstract In several fields of Geophysics, such as Hydrology, Meteorology or Oceanography, it is often useful to generate random fields, displaying the same variabilitity as the observed variables. Usually, these synthetic data are used as forcing fields into numerical models, to test the sensitivity of their outputs to the variability of the inputs. Examples can be found in subsurface or surface Hydrology and in Meteorology with General Circulation Models (GCM). Different techniques have already been proposed, often based on the spectral representation of the random process, with, usually, assumptions of stationarity. This paper suggests that Empirical Orthogonal Function (EOF) analysis, which leads to the decomposition of the covariance kernel on the set of its eigen-functions, is a possible answer to this problem. The convergence and accuracy of the method are shown to depend mainly on the number of EOFs retained in the expansion of the covariance kemel. This result is confirmed by a comparison with the turning band method and a matrix technique. Furthermore, a synthetic example of non-homogencous fields shows the interest of EOF analysis in the direct simulation of such fields.

    Notes: Abstract This paper, the first in a series of two, employs the principle of maximum entropy (POME) via maximum entropy spectral analysis (MESA) to develop a univariate model for long-term streamflow forecasting. Three cases of streamflow forecasting are investigated: forward forecasting, backward forecasting (or reconstruction) and intermittent forecasting (or filling in missing records). Application of the model is discussed in the second paper.

    Notes: Abstract A method for simulating field scale transport of kinetically adsorbing solutes is described. The non-equilibrium adsorption is modeled as a birth and death process and is coupled with the particle tracking approach using the first two moments of the distribution of the particle residence time, i.e., the time that a solute particle stays in the liquid phase. A single residence time distribution, regardless of the initial and final phase, is demonstrated to yield an accurate description of chemical kinetics in the vast majority of field scale problems. The first two moments of the residence time distribution are derived as a function of chemical reaction rates and the transport time interval Δt. It is shown that the first moment of the residence time represents a measure of the speed of the chemical reaction relative to the transport time scale Δt which is chosen depending on the velocity field. The second moment of the residence time reflects the relative importance of the chemical kinetics versus local equilibrium conditions for the given transport time step Δt. The simulated spatial moments of the contaminant plume are compared in the one-dimensional case with available analytical solutions to demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed technique. A two-dimensional case for stratified formations is presented to study the transport behavior for heterogeneous velocity fields and variable distribution coefficient, hypothesized as being negatively correlated with hydraulic conductivity. The results show that the enhanced plume spreading and the statistics of the arrival time distribution appear to be more sensitive to the spatially variable distribution coefficient than to the kinetics alone. In fact, the second spatial moment was almost doubled in the case of spatially variable distribution coefficient.

    Notes: Abstract Part I of this series of two papers (Unny, 1989) dealt with the theoretical derivation of the moment equations for the stochastic partial differential equation in the water table depth forced by stochastic rainfall input. Part I also developed a maximum likelihood estimation procedure for parameter determination. The primary aim of the present manuscript is the application of the parameter estimation procedure to the Borden aquifer, an aquifer designated as an experimental site, where extensive field measurements have been carried out. Estimates of hydraulic conductivity and transmissivity for the Borden aquifer, derived from the maximum likelihood algorithm, have been compared with estimates obtained by “traditional” procedures. The paper also presents the simulated solution of the governing differential equation in the one dimensional problem applied to the Borden aquifer.
