Sediment composition and stable isotopic ratio of Neogloboquadrina pachyderma from DSDP Site 94-609_Site, North Altlantic

Digitized records of optical desnity in many North Atlantic cores exihibt rapid changes from lighter to darker extrems, typically within less than 200 years, at the 5d/5e, 5b/5c and 4/5 boundaries. In cores from DSDP site 609 the changes from lighter to darker color coincide with increasing in relative abundance of Neogloboquadrina pachyderma (l.c.), with increases in abundances of lithic grains and with decreasing in carbonate content. The rapid changes to dark color, therefore, are climate-driven and correspond to a lowering of seas surface temperatures and to increases in amounts of ice rafted debris relative to biogenic carbonate. At the 5d&4c boundary, delta18O in N. pachyderma (l.c.) increases abruptly with the change to darker sediments as expected for cooler sea surface temperatures. At the 4/5 boundary, however, delta18O decreases with the change to darker sediment and cooler sea surface temperatures, suggesting that a layer of fresh surface water was present in the North Atlantic at that time.

Diário da Constituinte [gravação de vídeo] : [programa n. 609]

A Campanha para as eleições municipais poderá esvaziar o plenário e a falta de quórum preocupa os constituintes. A Constituinte recomeçou a votar o texto das disposições transitórias. Um dos temas discutidos é a punição dos constituintes que faltaram. Vinte e nove constituintes que não compareceram no mês passado tiveram suas ausências descontadas em seus respectivos contra cheques. A falta de quórum tem irritado os parlamentares mais assíduos. Com isso a data de promulgação da nova Constituição pode ficar imprevisível. O deputado Ubiratan Aguiar alerta para a necessidade da votação dos dispositivos que precisam de regulamentação por lei ordinária ou complementar. Ele sugere a criação de uma comissão para examinar tais normas.

Recent investigations on zooplankton in the Limnological Institute of the University of Freiburg, in Falkau (Germany). [Translation from: Acta cient.Venezolana 18, 94-97, 1967. ]

Histochemical experiments are conducted in order to study the interrenal cells of European brook lamprey (Lampetra planeri).

Physiology of nitrate reduction in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. [Translation from: Z.allg.Mikrobiol. 13, 83-94, 1973.]

Pseudomonas aeruginosa has for some time been known as a denitrifier. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was chosen for further studies, because P. aeruginosa occurs abundantly in Plusssee and moreover there are contradictory assertions on the gas products of denitrification by this bacteria. In experimental research the pattern of growth and gas production of Pseudomonas aeruginosa on nutrient broth was studied.

The problem of the co-existence of Arctodiaptomus bacillifer (Koelb.), Acanthodiaptomus denticornis (Wierz.) and Heterocope saliens Lill [Translation from: Memorie dell'Istituto Italiano di Idrobiologia Dott.Marco de Marchi 8 81-94, 1954]

In freshwater environments of modest size and without notable ecological structure, there is usually present only one diaptomid species. When two or more diaptomid species are present in the same habitat, generally their body dimensions are distinctly different. There are only four examples of co-existence of Arctodiaptomus bacillifer (Koelb.) and Acanthodiaptomus denticornis (Wierz.) situated at higher altitudes alpine lakes. The article discusses the results of sampling in the summer of 1953 and the problem of the co-existence of Arctodiaptomus bacillifer, Acanthodiaptomus denticornis and Heterocope saliens.

Experimental research on dormancy in Cyclops vicinus [Translation from: Naturwissenschaften 56 93-94, 1969]

Dormancy has been observed in several species of Cyclops. Animals in dormancy are characterised by almost complete inactivity of the main appendages and sluggish intestinal peristalsis. In Cyclops vicinus dormancy can take place in copepod stages III (19%), IV (78%) and V (3%) but one and the same animal only in one developmental stage. The author gives his own results between frequency of dormancy and photoperiod (20 C, 1000 lux). He concludes that dormancy in C. vicinus can be influenced by day length and can be ended prematurely by short day length.

Feeding of Gammarus lacustris Sars under different conditions of habitation [Translation from: [Trophic relations of freshwater invertebrates.] (ed. G. G. Vinberg) pp.94-98. Leningrad, Zool.Inst.AN SSSR, 1980]

The amphipod Gammarus lacustris, a regular representative of lacustrine communities, often plays a significant role in the transformation of matter and energy. The object of the present work was to clarify the quantitative side of the feeding of the amphipod under different conditions of habitation. Experimental works on determination of the rate of consumption of food and its dependence on body-weight were carried out in the summer periods 1975-1978 on three water-bodies of the Krasnoyarsk region, of different conditions of habitation for the amphipods.

Formas de argumentación retórica en Sófocles, «Electra», 558-609

[ES] El código retórico adquiere una especial relevancia durante el siglo V ateniense. Su presencia es evidente en la literatura del momento, especialmente en la historiografía y en el drama. Sófocles, «Electra», 558-609 es un buen ejemplo de hasta qué punto dicho código se tiene en cuenta en la elaboración de los discursos literarios. Pero, además, este discurso y la escena de la que forma parte ponen de manifiesto la reflexión de la sociedad ateniense acerca de la oposición entre ese código retórico y público y otro código de índole más privada.
