The Petroi Metabasalt comprises approximately 2000 m of massive and pillowed metabasalt flows, breccias, and metadolerite sills that overlie and are intercalated with Early Permian epiclastic rocks of the Nambucca Slate Belt. Both the basaltic rocks and associated sedimentary material were multiply deformed and metamorphosed to pumpellyite-actinolite facies grade at about 255 Ma. Metamorphism and earlier sea-floor alteration of these mafic rocks have led to hydration, carbonation and oxidation and considerable redistribution of the major elements and the more labile traces, notably Rb, Ba and Sr. However, abundances of TiO2, the high field strength trace elements, Ni, Cr and V, the light rare earths and yttrium are interpretable as being the largely unmodified magmatic abundances of mildly alkaline within-plate basalts. This interpretation is supported by the composition of relic Ca-rich pyroxenes in the metadolerites which fall in the fields of mildly alkaline basalts. The field relationships, age and composition of these rocks suggest either eruption on oceanic crust covered by a thick sequence of epiclastic rocks and subsequent incorporation into an accretionary subduction complex, or generation during rifting of the eastern part of the New England Fold Belt and accumulation, together with the associated sedimentary rocks, in a graben. The chemical and mineral characteristics of the igneous rocks indicate that the volcanism was not related to magmatic arc activity, and their presence demonstrates the rocks of the Nambucca Slate Belt are neither fore-arc basin nor slope-basin deposits. © Taylor & Francis Ltd.

Observations in a brackish creek in eastern Australia indicate that the blue-eye, P. signifer, includes various kinds of insects in its diet in the proportions encountered, provided that they are below a maximum size dictated by the mouth-gape of the fish. Encounter rates are affected by prey body size and water turbidity, but not by hunger level of the fish. Fish fed on insects at rates varying between 0.04 and 0.08 mg s-1.

Human adenovirus fails to multiply efficiently in monkey cells owing to a block to late viral gene expression. Ad2hr400 through Ad2hr403 are a set of host range (hr) mutants which were selected for their ability to readily grow in these cells at 37 degrees C. The mutations responsible for this extended host range have previously been mapped to the 5' portion of the gene encoding the 72-kilodalton DNA-binding protein (DBP). DNA sequence analyses indicate that all four hr mutants contain the same alteration at coding triplet 130, which changes a histidine codon to a tyrosine codon. These results extend those of Anderson et al. (J. Virol. 48:31-39, 1983), which suggested that only this change in the DBP amino acid sequence can expand adenovirus host range to monkey cells. The hr phenotype does not appear to require phosphorylation of this tyrosine residue, since no phosphotyrosine was detected in DBP isolated from Ad2hr400-infected monkey cells. The hr mutants Ad2hr400 through Ad2hr403, however, are cold sensitive for growth in monkey cells. The mutant Ad2ts400, which was derived from Ad2hr400, represents a second class of hr mutants which can grow efficiently in monkey cells at 32.5 degrees C. The cold-resistant hr mutation of Ad2ts400 has previously been mapped to the 5' region of the DBP gene (map units 63.6 through 66). DNA sequence analysis of this region shows that this mutant contains the original hr alteration at coding triplet 130 as well as a second alteration at coding triplet 148, which changes an alanine codon to a valine codon. We suspect that the alterations at amino acids 130 and 148 change the structure of the amino-terminal domain of the DBP, allowing it to better interact with monkey cell components required for late viral gene expression. Ad2ts400 also contains a temperature-sensitive mutation which has previously been mapped to the 3' portion of the DBP gene (map units 61.3 through 63.6). Sequence analysis of this region indica...

Consider k success counts from a binomial distribution with unknown N and success probability p. We examine the problem of estimating N. By integrating the likelihood for N and p over a beta density for p, we obtain the beta-binomial distribution resulting in stable and reasonably efficient estimators of N, which compare favorably with and are often better than the estimates introduced by Olkin et al. (1981). © 1985 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

We consider two approaches to robust estimation for the Box–Cox power-transformation model. One approach maximizes weighted, modified likelihoods. A second approach bounds a measure of gross-error sensitivity. Among our primary concerns is the performance of these estimators on actual data. In examples that we study, there seem to be only minor differences between these two robust estimators, but they behave rather differently than the maximum likelihood estimator or estimators that bound only the influence of the residuals. These examples show that model selection, determination of the transformation parameter, and outlier identification are fundamentally interconnected. © 1985 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

In an errors-in-variables regression model, the least squares estimate is generally inconsistent for the complete regression parameter but can be consistent for certain linear combinations of this parameter. We explore the conjecture that, when the least squares estimate is consistent for a linear combination of the regression parameter, it will be preferred to an errors-in-variables estimate, at least asymptotically. The conjecture is false, in general, but it is true for some important classes of problems. One such problem is a randomized two-group analysis of covariance, upon which we focus. © 1985 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

A study was made of the pigment composition and ultrastructure of a unicellular cyanophyte living in symbiosis with colonial didemnid ascidians and encrusting sponges collected from the southern end of the Great Barrier Reef, Australia, in 1981-1984. The ascidians were Trididemnum tegulum Kott and T. clinides. Kott; the sponges were Prianos aff. melanos de Laubenfels, Spirastrella aff. decumbens Ridley and an unidentified brown fleshy sponge (BFS). This cyanophyte seems to be identical with Synechocystis trididemni Lafargue et Duclaux. A phycoerythrin containing both phycourobilin and phycoerythrobilin chromophores was shown to be present; the urobilin was carried on α and β subunits, no γ subunit was found. A second phycoerythrin possessing only erythrobilin chromophores was also present. In thin-sections the cells showed no central DNA-containing nucleoid, and an unusual thylakoid arrangement with some thylakoids having greatly expanded lumens forming pseudo-vacuoles in the centre of the cell. Freeze-fracture showed 11 to 12 nm particles on both PF (protoplasmic face) and EF (exoplasmic face) faces of thylakoids. In many ways, the ultrastructure resembled that of the chlorophyll-b containing prokaryote Prochloron spp. © 1985 Springer-Verlag.

View description>>

Weighted normal plots are proposed as graphical checks on the normality of random effects in Gaussian linear models. The technique is illustrated using the one-way comparisons model Yi= μi+ ϵi, where the (μi, ϵi), are independent pairs with μiand ϵi, independent N(0, σ2) and N(0, σ2i), respectively, for i = 1, …, n. When the variance components σ2and σ2iare known, an unweighted normal plot of the standardized Zi= Yi(σ2+ σ2i)−1/2provides a check of the overall adequacy of the model. Weighted normal plots involve a modification that gives the ith observation a sample weight of Wi= (σ2+ σ2i)−1. Under the null hypothesis, the sample size must be larger by a factor of (1 + v/m2), where m and v are the mean and variance of the weights, to produce a weighted plot with approximately the same sampling variance as an unweighted normal plot. Despite this higher variability, we show that weighted plots are more sensitive than unweighted plots to several departures from the assumed distribution on the random effects, μi. Several numerical examples are included and the effects of substituting maximum likelihood estimates for the parameters σ2and σ2iare considered briefly. © 1985 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

Of all the special-L Son of Man logia, that in the Stephen-unit (Acts 6. 8–8. 2) is the most important for an understanding of Luke's work. The whole account is properly a unity, and the legion's meaning emerges from the meaning of the whole. For reasons which are merely noted at this stage, some interesting features of the unit are ignored in this discussion. For example, in the following paragraphs there is no examination of Luke's sources for his speech. Whatever they once were, the sources have been worked over so thoroughly that they are now linguistically and conceptually indistinguishable from the rest of Lk-Acts. Similarly, whatever form of Christian theology underlay those sources is not now available for the reconstruction of a stage in Christian history. Some writers have detected links between Stephen and the Samaritans, the Qumran writings, the Letter to the Hebrews or the community for which John the Evangelist wrote. None of these is discussed here, because Luke made this unit his own, functioning in the way he intended, achieving his purposes for his age.

Broad igneous contact aureoles and isolated thermal highs are developed in deformed early Permian formations of the south-eastern part of the New England Fold Belt, near Willi Willi, NSW. Typical resultant mineral assemblages of quartz-biotite-muscovite-cordierite-(pyrrhotite) in pelitic rocks and quartz-diopside-wollastonite-grossular-vesuvianite in calcareous rocks indicate a peak of static prograde metamorphism at upper hornblende hornfels facies, with T up to 550°C, P = 1 kb and XCO2<0.10. Partial retrogression followed and at one locality a late stage hedenbergite-fluorite-stannian-andradite skarn formed at the base of the Yessabah Limestone accompanied by Cu-Ag-Sn sulphide mineralization. The thermal metamorphism and mineralization are attributed to granitic plutons at shallow depth, belonging to a large batholith of which only highest levels are exposed. © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

Mean MAC values (+/-SD) for halothane, isoflurane, and enflurane in mice were 0.95 +/- 0.07%, 1.34 +/- 0.10%, and 1.95 +/- 0.16%, respectively; values in rats were 1.03 +/- 0.04%, 1.46 +/- 0.06%, and 2.21 +/- 0.08%, respectively, all significantly higher than in mice. Neither the sex of the animals nor whether female animals were pregnant influenced the results.

AbstractThe developmental toxicity of trace (0.006%), subanesthetic (0.06%), and light anesthetic (0.6%) exposure to isoflurane was examined in Swiss/Webster mice. No adverse effects were demonstrated following exposure of dams to 0.006% (n = 26) and 0.06% (n = 27) isoflurane for 4 hr daily on days 6–15 of pregnancy. Exposure to 0.6% isoflurane (n = 23) for the same period resulted in significantly decreased fetal weight, decreased skeletal ossification, minor hydronephrosis, and increased renal pelvic cavitation. The incidence of cleft palate also was significantly increased, abnormalities occurring in 12.1% of fetuses and affecting 11 of 23 litters. This incidence was considerably higher than that of the combined treatment and colony control groups (0.75%) and those that we have found in previous experiments with this mouse strain following exposure to halothane (1.2%) or enflurane (1.9%).

The production of amorphous silicon solar cells using deposition from a DC magnetron glow discharge is described. The cells have the p-i-n structure with indium tin oxide front contacts. Fill factors of 40% and overall solar efficiencies of around 1.2% were obtained. Investigations were carried out to determine the reasons for deficiencies in the carrier collection efficiency. The cell efficiency was increased by increasing the μτ product of the i-layer. The spectral dependences of carrier collection efficiency, open circuit voltage and fill factors were determined. Comparison with published theoretical models of similar cells showed that for the best cells, surface recombination effects limited the efficiency. Argon used in the p-layer deposition was the most likely cause of these effects. © 1985.

The following biological components concerning the population dynamics of Atlantic menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus) were investigated: growth, natural mortality, migration, fishing mortality, and recruitment. We found that a hypothesis of density-dependent growth is strongly supported by the data and that the dependence of growth on abundance appears to occur prior to recruitment. Age-specific natural mortality estimates seem biologically reasonable, except the estimate for age 1 menhaden, which appears to be too low. Most of the estimated migration probabilities also seem to be biologically reasonable, especially during the summer season for age 2 fish. Estimated age-specific fishing mortality rates demonstrate the increased fishing pressure on age 3 and younger fish since the early 1960's. When the environmental variables (temperature and Ekman transport) are excluded from the spawner–recruit analysis, then the Beverton–Holt model fits as well as other models examined, and it is the only model that is significant at the 0.05 probability level. Of the environmental variables examined, only westward Ekman transport in the South Atlantic region shows a relationship with recruitment. The unnormalized gamma function, which includes the Ricker model as a special case, is more responsive to the inclusion of westward Ekman transport than the Beverton–Holt model.

A genetic system is described which allows the isolation and propagation of adenovirus mutants containing lesions in early region 2A (E2A), the gene encoding the multifunctional adenovirus DNA-binding protein (DBP). A cloned E2A gene was first mutagenized in vitro and then was introduced into the viral genome by in vivo recombination. The E2A mutants were propagated by growth in human cell lines which express an integrated copy of the DBP gene under the control of a dexamethasone-inducible promoter (D. F. Klessig, D. E. Brough, and V. Cleghon, Mol. Cell. Biol. 4:1354-1362, 1984). The protocol was used to construct five adenovirus mutants, Ad5d1801 through Ad5d1805, which contained deletions in E2A. One of the mutants, Ad5d1802, made no detectable DBP and thus represents the first DBP-negative adenovirus mutant, while the four other mutants made truncated DBP-related polypeptides. All five mutants were completely defective for growth and plaque formation on HeLa cell monolayers. Furthermore, the two mutants which were tested, Ad5d1801 and Ad5d1802, did not replicate their DNA in HeLa cells. The mutant Ad5d1804 encoded a truncated DBP-related protein which contained an entire amino-terminal domain derived from the host range mutant Ad5hr404, a variant of Ad5 which multiplies efficiently in monkey cells. While results of a previous study suggest that the amino-terminal domain of DBP could act independently of the carboxyl-terminal domain to enhance late gene expression in monkey cells, the Ad5d1804 polypeptide failed to relieve the block to late viral protein synthesis in monkey cells. The mutant Ad5d1802 was used to study the role of DBP in the regulation of early adenovirus gene expression in infected HeLa cells. These experiments show that E2A mRNA levels are consistently reduced approximately fivefold in Ad5d1802-infected cells, suggesting either a role for DBP in the expression of its own gene or a cis-acting defect caused by the E2A deletion....

Potassium transport has been studied in the marine euryhaline alga, Enteromorpha intestimlis cultured in seawater and in low-salinity medium (Artificial Cape Banks Spring Water, ACBSW; 25·5 mol m-3 Cl-, 20·4 mol m-3 Na+, 0·5 mol m-3 K+). K+ fluxes were measured using 42K+ and 86Rb+ although 86Rb+ does not act as an efficient K+ analogue in this plant. 42K+ experiments on seawater plants typically exhibited a single protoplasmic exchange phase whereas 86Rb+ exhibited two exchange phases. Compartmental analysis of 86Rb+ efflux experiments on seawater-grown Enteromorpha plants were used to deduce the intracellular partition of K+ between the cytoplasm (279±38 mMolal) and vacuole (405±68 mMolal). The plasmalemma K+ flux in plants in seawater was greater in the light than in the dark (563±108 nmol m-2 s-1 versus 389±66·7 nmol m-2 s-1). In low-salinity plants, separate cytoplasmic and vacuolar exchange phases were apparent. Analysis of 42K+ efflux experiments on low-salinity plants yielded a cytoplasmic K+ of 222±38 mMolal and a vacuolar K+ of 82±11 mMolal. The plasmalemma and tonoplast flux was 23±4·5 nmol m-2 s-1.The Nernst equation showed that, although K+ was close to electrochemical equilibrium, active accumulation of K+ across the plasmalemma occurred in plants in seawater and ACBSW both in the light and dark. K+ was also actively transported inwards across the tonoplast in low-salinity plants. The electrochemical potential for K+ across the plasmalemma ranged from 2·41±0·60 kJ mol-1 in plants grown in seawater in the light to 5·79±0·87 kJ mol-1 for plants in ACBSW in the light. Although K+ is close to electrochemical equilibrium, the flux of K+ in plants in both seawater and ACBSW media is high, hence the power consumption of K+ transport is high. The permeability of K+ (PK+) was significantly higher in the light than in the dark in plants in seawater (about 7·0 versus 2·5 nm s-1) but in plants in low-salinity (ACBSW) medium the permeability was independent of l...

In springwater (25.5 mol m-3 Cl-, 20.4 mol m-3 Na+, 0.14 mol m-3 K+) Enteromorpha intestinalis could not survive for more than a few weeks unless provided with 0.5 mol m-3 K+ in the medium or alternatively exposed to seawater for 1 day per week. Maintenance of a cytoplasmic K+ level of about 200 mol m-3 is critical for the maintenance of normal metabolic activity. Net gains of intracellular K+ occurred when the plants were transferred from low-salinity to seawater; conversely large net losses occurred when plants were transferred from seawater to springwater. These two processes were not simply the reverse of one another; net gain of K+ involved a large increase in the tracer flux both into and out of the cell but net loss of K+ virtually halted the tracer flux into the cell. Any injury incurred by rapid salinity changes was short-lived; plants were rapidly able to adjust intracellular [K1.K+). K+(or to some extent Rb+) was found to be necessary in the efflux medium for 42K+ exchange to occur. The osmotic concentration of the medium was also important but extracellular Na+ and Cl-concentrations were not critical. K+ influx and efflux in both springwater and seawater were largely independent of light and were sensitive in varying degrees to a range of common metabolic inhibitors and uncouplers. The results are best explained by the presence of an active K+ influx, generated by an ATP-dependent K+ pump at the plasmalemma. © 1985 Oxford University Press.

A model including an age-structure, a stochastic egg-recruitment relationship, density-dependent juvenile growth, age-dependent fishing mortality, and fecundity dependent upon size as well as age was used to investigate three types of harvesting strategies: constant yearly catch policies, constant fishing mortality rate policies, and 'egg escapement' policies, which are defined in the article. Because of stochastic recruitment, constant yearly catch policies appear unsuitable for managing Atlantic menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus). Both other types of policies are suitable, but the egg escapement policies have higher long-term average catches. Using decision theory, we investigated risks due to the randomness of recruitment and to the estimation errors for the biographical parameters in our model. The risks appear to be acceptable.

The resonant reaction H(¹⁹F,αγ)¹⁶O^* was used to study the hydrogen content and distribution with depth in a-Si : H films. The films were prepared in a DC magnetron by glow discharge decomposition of silane at a pressure of 1 Pa. The results showed that a surface hydrogen peak was present for a film prepared at 310°C but disappeared when the films were prepared at 370°C. The total hydrogen content was one half of that calculated using infrared absorption spectroscopy. RBS was used to determine the film density and scanning electron microscopy was used to investigate microstructure. © 1985.

Quantitative three-dimensional studies of morphology together with analysis of validity of quasistatic effective medium theories show the need for a diffraction treatment of the optical properties of solar selective black chrome. The spectral absorptance A(λ) is calculated for a doubly periodic modulation of chrome overcoated with Cr2O3 or a cermet of Cr2O3 and Cr metal. Various profiles, depths and coating thicknesses are used. Diffraction caused by the surface morphology explains the major features of A(λ) for black chrome. Internal structure is of secondary importance. © 1985.

The empirical domain of the Tasseled Cap Graphic Model was examined in the soil brightness-plant greenness plane. Individual, soil-specific tasseled caps were derived for four different soil types with similar plant canopy conditions in order to analyze soil background influences on greenness results. The size, shape and orientation of these tasseled caps were strongly dependent on soil type, and greenness results for identical plant canopy conditions were not reproducible across tasseled caps. Greenness was comparable only when individual tasseled caps were scaled to similar sizes.

Very thin gold layers were produced on glass by evaporation with and without simultaneous ion bombardment. Electron microscopy showed that films with thicknesses below a certain magnitude which decreased with increasing ion flux had a non-uniform (network) structure. Optical properties were measured by spectrophotometry in the 0.3-50-ym range. Uniform films were consistent with the Drude theory with an anomalously large frequency dependence of the relaxation energy. Non-uniform films displayed characteristic plateaus in the near-infrared transmittance. This feature, which is conducive to high solar transmittance, can be explained from effective medium theories based on the film structure. Our results are important for the development of improved noble-metal-based infrared-reflectors * for energy efficient windows. © 1985 SPIE.
