Langcliffe hatchery investigations 1982 [on River Ribble near Settle]

Langcliffe hatchery investigations looks at fish mortalities for salmon (fry), sea trout, brown trout and rainbow trout, and explores the River Ribble's water supply.

Análise estratigráfica do intervalo siluro-devoniano da bacia do Amazonas

O trabalho consiste na análise estratigráfica do intervalo siluro-devoniano da Bacia do Amazonas utilizando como base os conceitos da Estratigrafia Moderna, mais especificamente a sequência estratigráfica genética, proposta por Galloway (1989), a qual utiliza as superfícies de inundação marinha como os limites de uma sequência sedimentar. A principal razão para a utilização desta metodologia deve-se ao fato que o conteúdo rochoso compreendido no intervalo estudado teve a sua sedimentação relacionada às transgressões marinhas que faziam parte do contexto paleogeográfico da bacia durante o Siluriano e Devoniano. Desta forma, as superfícies de inundação máxima, representativas de eventos cronoestratigráficos, destacam-se nos perfis de raios gama e são tomadas como datum de correlação em treze poços exploratórios, os quais foram distribuídos em quatro seções (A-A, B-B, C-C e D-D) pela bacia. A análise destas seções permitiu a identificação de quatro sequências de terceira ordem (AB, BC, CD e DE), limitadas no topo e na base por superfícies de inundação marinha. Cada sequência é constituída por ciclos regressivo-transgressivos assimétricos, representados pelo trato de sistemas de mar alto e pelo trato de sistemas transgressivo. A análise destas seções integrada à interpretação de mapas estratigráficos (isópacas, isólitas e porcentagem de areias) possibilitou identificar o depocentro da bacia, bem como duas áreas principais como fonte de sedimentos arenosos (uma a oeste e outra a sul). Além disto, foi possível inferir que a comunicação marinha com o continente, durante as transgressões paleozoicas, responsável pela deposição de sedimentos pelíticos, seguiu uma orientação de norte para sul, evoluindo obliquamente em direção ao continente num trend nordeste para sudoeste. Por fim, a partir da análise cíclica em perfis de raios gama, as superfícies de inundação marinha, do intervalo Devoniano, das bacias do Amazonas e Parnaíba foram correlacionadas.

Charles Henry Gilbert (1859-1928), Naturalist-in-Charge, and Chauncey Thomas, Jr. (1850-1919), Commanding: Conflict Aboard the U. S. Fish Commission Steamer Albatross in 1902

Charles Henry Gilbert (1859-1928) was a pioneering ichthyologist who made major contributions to the study of fishes of the American West. As chairman of the Department ofZoology at Leland Stanford Junior University in Palo Alto, Calif., during 1891-1925, Gilbert was extremely devoted to his work and showed little patience with those ofa different mindset. While serving as Naturalist-in-Charge of the U.S. Fish Commission Steamer Albatross during her exploratory expedition to the Hawaiian Islands in 1902, Gilbert engaged in an acrimonious feud with the ship's captain, Chauncey Thomas, Jr. (1850-1919), U.S.N., over what Gilbert perceived to be an inadequate effort by the captain. This essay focuses on the conflict between two strong figures, each operatingf rom different world views, and each vying for authority. Despite the difficulties these two men faced, the voyage of the Albatross in 1902 must be considered a success, as reflected by the extensive biological samples collected, the many new species of animals discovered, and the resulting publication of important scientific papers.

O lugar do encontro: o Centro de Artes da Maré e a trajetória de jovens na Nova Holanda

A presente pesquisa aborda a trajetória de jovens frequentadores do Centro de Artes da Maré, equipamento cultural localizado na Nova Holanda uma das 16 comunidades que compõem o Complexo da Maré no Rio de Janeiro. Apresenta um breve histórico de configuração deste território e tem por objetivo principal perceber o significado do Centro de Artes da Maré e das atividades lá desenvolvidas na vida cotidiana de alguns jovens moradores. A pesquisa possui enfoque na perspectiva etnográfica, reforçando a importância da prática de observação e do trabalho de campo. Não parte de hipóteses fechadas e em suas considerações finais destaca aspectos tais como: identidade e pertencimento, conhecimento através da experiência e criação, mobilidade espacial e socialização, e de que forma estes aspectos fazem do CAM um espaço de convivência e promovem a conquista da cidadania cultural

Central & Southern Area Fisheries Advisory Committee 18th January, 1982

This is the report from the Central and Southern Area Fisheries Advisory Committee meeting, which was held on the 18th January, 1982. It includes information on the restructuring of rod and line fishing licence duties, proposed introduction of fishery improvement grant and fishery equipment loan, schemes in 1983. The Fisheries Advisory Committee was part of the Regional Water Authorities, in this case the North West Water Authority. This preceded the Environment Agency which came into existence in 1996.

Northern Area Fisheries Advisory Committee 29th March, 1982

This is the report from the Northern Area Fisheries Advisory Committee meeting, which was held on the 29th March, 1982. It includes information on the Cumbrian Coastal Waters Net Limitation order, and the report by the area fisheries officer on fisheries activites from September 1981 to January 1982. The report covers information on river conditions and fishing, migratory fish movement, an update on the work at Holmwrangle Hatchery, fish disease, management and survey work and monthly salmon and sea trout catches for rod, line, nets and fixed engines for the 1981 season.
