    Description: There has been concern about recent temperature trends and the future effects of CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere1,2; but instrumental records only cover a few decades to a few centuries and it is essential that proxy data sources, such as pollen spectra from peats and lake sediments, be carefully interpreted as climate records. Several workers have shown statistically significant associations between the modern pollen rain and climatic parameters, an approach that by-passes the recognition of pollen/vegetation units. Statistically defined equations that associate abiotic and biotic elements are called transfer functions. We report here on the application of transfer function equations to nine middle and late Holocene peat and lake sediment sequences from northern Canada (Fig. 1).

    Notes: [Auszug] Washington A NATIONAL Academy of Sciences panel has concluded that while the "nuclear winter" scenario - recently popularized by Carl Sagan - is a "clear possibility", the uncertainties are so great as to make it impossible to "put a number on the temperature changes or other climate effects". ...

    Notes: [Auszug] THE academy report on nuclear winter studiously avoids the use of that term, even in quotation marks. The bulk of the report is concerned with the analysis of the assumptions on which calculations of the climatic effects of the nuclear war have been based. The committee has not constructed climatic ...

    Notes: [Auszug] ONE of the problems of compiling a practical manual in molecular biology is to decide when to do it. The speed with which the subject progresses makes it difficult to judge when a method has progressed from research topic to established procedure. Perhaps the easiest way to identify areas that are ...

    Notes: [Auszug] JUST as there is no general answer to the question how long is a piece of string, so there is no easy way of telling what a national telephone network may be worth. That may be the most charitable excuse for the stratagems to which the British Government has gone, in the past few months, for ...
