Much of our present knowledge about the species composition and distribution of (ephalopods of the Pacific Ocean is derived from collections made on cruises of the "Albatross," steamer of the U.S. Fish Commission, During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. "Albatross" collections along the west coast of North America...
A mixed initial and boundary value problem is considered for
a partial differential equation of the form Muₜ(x, t)+Lu(x, t)=0,
where M and L are elliptic differential operators of orders 2 m
and 2l, respectively, with m ≤ l. The existence and uniqueness
of a strong solution of this equation...
We are concerned here with well-posed problems for the partial differential equation uₜ(x, t) + yMuₜ(x, t) + Lu(x, t) = f(x, t) containing the elliptic differential operator M of order 2m and the differential operator L of order ≤2m. Hilbert space methods are used to formulate and solve an...
A previously undescribed system of differential food
storage in replete forms of the honey ant, Myrmecocystus
mexicanus Wesmael, is reported. Certain repletes store lipid as glycerol and cholesterol esters associated with
sugar solutions containing glucose, fructose, and maltose.
Suspended matter in Astoria canyon was monitored by means of an in situ nephelometer and by means of light-scattering and particle concentration measurements performed aboard ship on water samples. Nephelometer profiles obtained along the axis of the canyon in February and April 1973 indicate that the canyon is divided into...
The L²-error estimates are established for the continuous time Faedo-Galerkin approximation to solutions of a linear parabolic initial boundary value problem that has elliptic part of order 2m. Properties of analytic semigroups are used to obtain these estimates directly from the L²-estimates for the corresponding steady state elliptic problem under...
We give a nonstandard method of integrating the equation Bu" + Cu’ + Au = f in Hilbert space by reducing it to a first order system in which the differentiated term corresponds to energy. Semigroup theory gives existence for hyperbolic and for parabolic cases. When C = εA, ε...
