Abnormal, large, possibly neoplastic cells from two Ostrea /urida have been successfully labeled with tritiated thymidine, and thus, for the first time, data are available for analyzing a presumptive invertebrate proliferative disorder. Large numbers of labeled atypical cells (AC) were uniformly distributed throughout the connective tissue (CT) underlying the gills,...
The seasonal variation in the alongshore velocity field is inferred from direct current observations made over the Oregon continental shelf at various locations and irregular intervals since 1965. Monthly mean currents are computed and compared with earlier studies to give a description of the seasonal variation in the alongshore currents....
Atmospheric surface layer turbulent statistics measured during the Barbados Oceanographic and Meteorological Experiment 8 and 30 m above mean sea level are presented. The budget equations of turbulent kinetic energy, humility variance and temperature variance are examined. Within discussed limitations it is concluded that production equals dissipation in the case...
A total of 19 species of hyperiid amphipods was collected from 1963 to 1967 off Oregon.
Parathemisto pacifica, Paraphronima gracilis, Streetsia challengeri, Tryphana malmi, Hyperia
medusarum, Hyperoche medusarum, and Primno macropa were common. New distributional
records are reported for Scina crassicornis bermudensis and Lanceola loveni. Abundance and
occurrence of common...
The apparent emissivity of the atmosphere ϵ, defined as the ratio of incoming long-wave radiation to black-body radiation at screen temperature Tₐ, was measured under clear skies in the English Midlands and in the Sudan. At a zenith angle Z the emissivity was given by ϵ(Z) = a + bIn(usec...
In a recent note, Collier and Lockwood (1974) compared measurements of total solar radiation on cloudless days at an inland site in England with radiation calculated from empirical expressions derived from (i) data from weather ships in the eastern Atlantic (Lumb 1964) and (ii) measurements of radiation and turbidity in...
A light, simple, and fairly inexpensive hand-launched freely falling probe for measuring temperature microstructure was built. The circuitry operates under pressure in a Freon environment; low-power integrated circuits are used as components. The probe is assembled from plastic pipe and fittings and recovered with monofilament fishing line. Standard XBTs are...
At the earth's surface, long‐wave radiation received from the atmosphere in the absence of cloud may be expressed as the sum of the flux density from an isotropic source and the flux density due to anisotropy of atmospheric radiation. Separation of these components facilitates calculations of the radiative flux received...
The Cauchy problem for the evolution equation Mu’(t) + N(t,u(t)) = 0 is studied, where M and N(t,•) are, respectively, possibly degenerate and nonlinear monotone operators from a vector space to its dual. Sufficient conditions for existence and for uniqueness of solutions are obtained by reducing the problem to an...
