Abstract:
Ambon Bay consists of two regions i.e. Inner and Outer Ambon Bay that was separated by Galala-Poka sill. Consequently these waters have different local environmental conditions that leads to the bivalve populations differences, one of them is venus clam Gafrarium tumidum. In this study, the distribution and spatial variation in population characteristics of of venus clam was quantified based on the analysis of their twelve shell dimensions from different populations. Fieldwork and analyses were conducted on April – Juni 2013. Total of 585 individuals of venus clam were found and could be divided into ten size-classes and three size categories i.e. small (< 23.11 mm), medium (23.12–32.05 mm) and large size (> 32.06 mm). The highest size-class density was found at medium size. Spatial distribution was related to the characteristics of sediment and other potential factors. Result of discriminant analysis showed that shell-width (SW) was the variable with the highest discriminating power and distinguishing between Inner and Outer Ambon Bay populations.

Abstract:
INTRODUCTIONVenus striatula (da Costa) (= Venus gallina L.) occurs in high densities in shallow water on a bottom of clean fine sand in the Bay of Douarnenez. The environmental conditions are characterized by an obvious sediment instability due to a high exposure to westerly swells (Guillou & Le Moal, 1978). This species is preferentially distributed in the fine sands (Petersen, 1913; Thorson, 1957), but is relatively tolerant towards certain ecological factors and so is sometimes found in very muddy sediments. It also shows an extended latitudinal range, since it is recorded from the Lofoten Islands to the Canaries, in the Mediterranean and the Black Sea (Tebble, 1966).

Abstract:
The bivalves Mytilus chilensis, Venus antiqua, Mulinia edulis and Tagelus dombeii inhabit different levels of the tidal flats in Yaldad Bay, southern Chile. Mytilus chilensis is an epifaunal bivalve, which, at this location, is also farmed in culture rafts; whereas the other species belong to the infauna. The objective of this study was to compare filtering capacity of these species; in order to do this, measurements of food consumption were taken by quantifying clearance rates, as well as taking morphological measurements of their feeding systems (gills and labial palps), and endoscopic observations to determine the velocity of particle transport within the gills. All of these parameters were related to the sediments present in environments occupied by these species. In Mytilus chilensis, both wild and farmed, gill area was significantly higher than in the three infaunal species. Mulinia edulis and Venus antiqua did not show any significant differences in gill area. As far as Tagelus dombeii is concerned, the species presented the lowest values among all species studied. Weight of labial palps was significantly higher in Mulinia edulis compared to the other species. There were no significant differences between labial palps of either wild or farmed Mytilus chilensis or in those of Venus antiqua and Tagelus dombeii. A positive, significant relationship was identified between labial palps size and mud sediment content. Both culture-rafts and intertidal Mytilus chilensis displayed a clearance rate that was significantly higher than the infaunal species, concurring with a significant relationship between clearance rate and gill area in the different species studied. Clearance rates displayed by Venus antiqua, Mulinia edulis and Tagelus dombeii did not show significantly different results among them. Mytilus chilensis from both culture-rafts and intertidal zone displayed higher values of particle transport velocity than the infaunal species. Particle transport was not observed in the dorsal canal of any of the species studied. The conclusion is that in these species filtering capacity is determined mostly by gill size and that labial palp size displays a strong relationship with sediment content in the mud of Yaldad tidal flats.

AbstractThere is an important small-scale fishery using mechanized dredges and targeting clams (mainly wedge clam Donax trunculus and striped venus clam Chamelea gallina) along the Catalan coast (NW Mediterranean Sea). This study evaluated for the first time the discards and impact of mechanized clam dredging on the Catalan coast. To this end, three surveys were performed on board standard clam vessels (September and November 2016 and January 2017). Surveys were conducted in the three main clam fishing areas (Rosas Bay, South Barcelona and Ebro Delta). The composition of discards and the impact caused to discarded species was assessed using a three-level scale (undamaged; minor or partial damage; and lethal damage). Our study revealed that a large proportion of the catch (between 67–82% weight) is discarded. Even though about 63% of the discarded species were undamaged, 11% showed minor or partial damage and 26% lethal damage. Infaunal and epifaunal species with soft-body or fragile shells were the most impacted by the fishing activity (e.g. the sea urchin Echinocardium mediterraneum (~89%) and the bivalve Ensis minor (~74%)). Our results showed different levels of impact by target species and fishing area.

Full text
Abstract:
The brush-tailed bettong formerly ranged over much of southern Australia, but is now extinct except in the south-west of Western Australia and northern Queensland. A small colony was obtained from the Perth Zoo in 1975 and these were bred successfully at the Para Wirra Recreation Park near Adelaide and provided stock for a re-establishment program in South Australia. Details of the breeding program are given. Bettongs were kept in small colonies, usually one male and two or three females; the young were removed when they reached 550 g, or, with very intensive breeding, at a lower weight. The animals were fed principally on commercial kangaroo pellets with a range of supplements. Usually two offspring per year were produced although up to three were produced with intensive breeding. Females commenced breeding when approximately 4 months old. Techniques for re-establishment were tested on small islands. One island, Island A in Venus Bay, provided apparently ideal habitat and the captive-bred stock released there established quickly. Bettongs bred in the wild on two small and two large islands. However, the introduction to St Francis I., their last stronghold before extinction in South Australia, was least successful. Possible reasons for this are discussed.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to apply indicators for monitoring the impacts of harvest in a recreational surf clam fishery. We investigated trends in abundance, biomass and size structure and proportion of sexual maturity for the pipi (Donax deltoides) in Venus Bay, Australia. The surf clam stock was sampled during the peak harvesting season in the Australian summer (November to February) at four sites exposed to varying degrees of recreational harvest. Sampling was based on three transects at each site; with 0.027 m3 (0.3 m × 0.3 m × 0.3 m) quadrats stratified within transects by tidal position. Restricted maximum likelihood mixed model analyses were used to examine fixed effect combinations after including a priori random effect for transect within site. Results demonstrated that relative abundance varied significantly (P = 0.0090) among sampling months but not among sites. Relative abundance declined across the peak summer harvest season. The proportion of maturity varied significantly (P = 0.00026) among sites whereas relative biomass varied significantly (P = 0.0043) among months by sites. Relative biomass and the proportion of maturity were considerably higher at the site exposed to minimal harvest compared to other sites. This study demonstrates that a suite of indictors including biomass, size–frequency and proportion of maturity are likely to provide a more accurate assessment of stock status in recreationally fished surf clam populations, than relative abundance. This highlights the need to develop methods to estimate relative biomass in surf clam populations that are not exploited commercially.

Abstract:
Context Many of Australia’s threatened mammals were once widespread across the continent and present in both arid, semiarid and temperate habitats. However, data on breeding biology can be lacking for some climatic regions due to local extinctions of populations. The breeding biology of the greater bilby (Macrotis lagotis) has previously only been studied in captive colonies or free-ranging arid zone populations. Between 1997 and 2005, captive-bred bilbies were released at two sites in temperate South Australia. These populations provided an opportunity to determine whether bilbies adopt a seasonal reproductive strategy in the temperate zone, where this species has not been present since the early 1900s. Aims To determine the season of births, litter size and female reproductive potential in two free-ranging populations of the bilby in the temperate zone of South Australia. Methods Bilbies were regularly cage-trapped at Venus Bay Conservation Park and Thistle Island between August 2007 and April 2010 to obtain data on reproductive activity in both populations. Key results Births of pouch young in both populations occurred in winter (June–August), spring and early summer, but not between February and mid-May. Males had a significantly smaller mean testes size relative to head length in late summer, when breeding activity ceased. Average litter size at pouch emergence was between 1.00 and 1.47 pouch young, with females producing up to three litters per annum. The mean head length of females that successfully raised twins was significantly larger than that of females who raised a single pouch young. Conclusions The seasonal breeding pattern observed in the present study differs from that of year-round reproductive activity in captivity and the arid zone. The present study suggests that female body size influences fecundity, and that releasing large females at the start of the breeding season in temperate areas may maximise the initial rate of increase of a translocated bilby population. Implications The present study suggests previously widespread species such as the bilby can adapt their reproductive strategy to suit local conditions. Cessation of breeding in autumn, as observed in this study, has also been observed in other bandicoot species in southern Australia.

Abstract:
A study of the behavioural ecology of the woylie (Bettongia penicillata) was conducted between November 1986 and September 1987 on a population that had been introduced to Island A, Venus Bay in South Australia. The primary aim of the research was to establish the reasons for the success of this population of approximately 20 individuals which survives in an environment which is considerably different from the pockets of forest and woodland habitats comprising the present range of this species in Western Australia. This knowledge will assist wildlife authorities to identify suitable reintroduction sites within the former mainland range of B. penicillata. Scat analysis revealed that woylies on Island A consumed a catholic diet of dicotyledon leaf material, seasonal fruits and berries, and invertebrates. Endomycorrhizal fungal spores were common in scats during spring and are possibly derived from the gut of Scarab beetle larvae that were present in the scats at this time. Fungi are an insignificant dietary component of woylies at Venus Bay. The home ranges of woylies on Island A overlapped considerably and were significantly smaller than the "feeding" areas recorded for Western Australian conspecifics. Separate "feeding" and "nest" areas could not be identified on Island A as refuges were dispersed throughout the home range and were at a density of approximately three times that reported for Western Australian woylies. The refuge sites used by woylies on Island A were relatively simple constructions and contrasted with the more complex double-layered structures described for mainland woylies. Refuge sites on Island A were generally located beneath dense bushes. They provided little protection from prevailing temperature and relative humidity but did provide cover and ameliorate the effects of insolation. Refuges were exclusive to individuals. Males maintained a greater degree of spatial separation from one another during refuge occupation than they did from females, or females from each other. No significant difference between male and female body masses was detected, while the mean body mass recorded in December was significantly higher than at other times. The woylies at Venus Bay had significantly lower masses than those reported for a population of woylies at Tuttanning in Western Australia. The limited genetic base of the founding population and competition for food among this high density population are the most likely reasons for the lower masses of woylies on Island A. This study demonstrates that woylies can be successfully introduced into a wild, modified environment if their basic habitat requirements of suitable cover and diet are met. A broad diet, the abundance of suitable food species and adequate refuge sites within a small area, together with the absence of predators and fire, have all contributed to the success of the woylie population introduced to Island A. Active management is required to monitor and manipulate such small populations to ensure that genetic viability is maintained and the long term survival of the species is secured. Management: Recommendations 1. Monitor the population dynamics and genetic profiles of wild woylie populations in Western Australia. 2. Monitor the genetic profiles of woylies on Island A and other introduced populations. 3. Identify and acquire habitats similar to, and within, those of B. penicillata's former range, remove stock and exotic herbivores, implement and maintain predator control measures, and foster the growth of food species suitable for woylies. 4. Conduct research at proposed introduction sites to establish the fire regimes that would maintain adequate food and cover for woylies. 5. Introduce fresh genetic stock from wild Western Australian populations into the existing small populations in South Australia and simultaneously cull adults from the receiving population. 6. Maintain management practices to protect relic populations in Western Australia and newly established populations at introduction sites.

Abstract:
Venus has been visited by a number of spacecraft. Those most important in advancing our understanding of the atmosphere include Mariner 10 (1974), Pioneer Venus (1978- 1992), and the series of Venera probes by the former USSR (1982-1986). The Pioneer Venus orbiter conducted more than a decade of monitoring of the upper atmosphere of Venus. The spacecraft data are supplemented by telescopic and satellite (in Earth orbit) observations. The astronomical data for Venus are summarized in table 8.1. Venus is a close but slightly smaller sibling of Earth. The radius is 6051 km, as compared to Earth's 6371 km. The mass is 4.87 x 1024 kg, a little less than Earth's 5.98 x 1024 kg. The gravity of Venus is 8.87 ms-2, as compared to Earth's 9.82 ms-2. The dynamical and orbital parameters of Venus are very different from those of Earth. The rotation of Venus is retrograde, with a period of 225 days. The planet has little obliquity, and its orbit is close to being circular. Thus there is little seasonal variation in insolation over a Cytherian year. Perhaps the greatest surprise about Venus is its dense, dry, and hot atmosphere of 92 bar (see figure 8.1). This is all the more surprising because the planet is completely covered by thick clouds. Figure 8.2 shows the altitude profiles of three modes of cloud particles in the middle atmosphere. The high albedo of Venus implies that the planet receives less energy from the sun than Earth despite its closer proximity to the sun. However, the surface of Venus is hot, with a temperature of 733 K, attributed to the greenhouse effect. The bulk of our knowledge of the atmosphere of Venus is derived from observations in the middle atmosphere (60-100 km altitude). At cloud-top levels (65 km), groundbased ultraviolet (UV) observations revealed a 4-5 day period, east-to-west circulation that is 60 times faster than the solid surface. The mechanism for generating this superrotation is not well understood. The net result of this rotation is that it gives the upper atmosphere an effective diurnal cycle of 4-5 days.

This chapter discusses jazz venues in Shanghai. The historical presence of jazz in Shanghai as the music of the city, from the late 1910s and even throughout the Japanese invasion, continues to this day. Even though Mao suppressed anything Western within a few years of his defeat of the Nationalists in 1949, his passing in 1976 and the subsequent opening up of China to the world in the late 1970s spurred the rejuvenation of jazz in the city. By the mid-2000s, one could find numerous venues presenting jazz in Shanghai. Some of the venues are housed in the hotels, such as the Shanghai Hilton, the George V, and the Portman Ritz-Carlton Bar. The most historic of the hotel jazz venues is the Peace Hotel Jazz Bar on the Bund.

ABSTRACT This paper does not have an abstract. The Northern California Geological Society held its first meeting in May 1944. Over the years, a monthly lecture series and occasional field trips evolved to serve as the main venues for the Society. At first, meetings of the Society were held in various locations across the San Francisco Bay area, but eventually settled in San Francisco because of its concentration of petroleum and mining companies. One of the first field trips organized by the Society was a two-day trip to Mount Diablo held on 12–13 May 1950. This event marked the beginning of a close connection between the Society and the mountain. The Society prospered over the next few decades, but as the petroleum and mining companies relocated away from San Francisco, the membership broadened and the meeting location was moved to the East Bay and near Mount Diablo. Seventy-five years after its founding, the Society proposed to celebrate this anniversary by assembling a volume of new research and field guides by the members...

Abstract:
This chapter considers the context of the French Revolution and the spectacle of accelerated and mechanised decapitation and their joint influence on the Gothic imagination. The focus of the discussion is on stage representation, and the anxieties generated by attempts to represent insurrectionary violence in the 1790s in front of potentially volatile and unpredictable audiences. James Boaden’s dramatisation of Matthew Lewis’ The Monk is adapted (in part) to neutralise the representation of mob rule. Meanwhile, George Reynolds’ Bantry Bay, staged during a unique window of opportunity in 1797, attempts to re-imagine potential insurgents in loyalist terms. Paradoxically, the attempt to control the theatre through licensing had created larger venues than ever before, making audiences potentially more threatening.

Abstract:
This paper presents the systems engineering solutions implemented in developing a large floating performance stage that was constructed at the Marina Bay of Singapore. The Marina Floating Platform is designed to be a multi-purpose facility on the bay for mass spectator events, sporting activities and cultural performances, as well as be a re-configurable “piers” for water sports and boat shows. This floating platform was completed in 2007 and is believed to be the world’s largest floating performance stage on water. It hosted the nation’s National Day Parade 2007, the first parade to be held on water. Since then, the floating platform and its seating gallery have been used as the venue for lifestyle events, extreme sports, the Singapore Fireworks Festival and Water Carnival. The floating platform opens up new possibilities in space creation in land-scarce countries such as Singapore.

Abstract:
Each year, a small fraction of children are born with univentricular hearts, causing the lethal blue baby syndrome. Several preliminary operations are required to buy time until the child’s blood vessels grow to sufficient size. Once the child reaches an age of 3–5 years, the blood vessels have grown enough for the Stage 3 Fontan operation, in which the superior and inferior vena cavae are coupled directly to the pulmonary arteries in a cruciform junction [2,3]. After this operation, the heart is only pumping blood to the systemic circulation. Only residual pressure in the systemic veins and intrathoracic pressure change with respiration drive the flow into the lungs [5]. This circulation decreases the load on the heart, allowing the patients to survive with normal blood oxygen levels. This circulation decreases the load on the heart, allowing the patients to survive into their 20s and 30s. An aim of this study is to develop an experimental model of the Fontan circulation that can be readily adapted to simulate patient specific anatomies so as to assist in potential surgical decisions. Of interest is the study of chronic venous hypertension, a result of the Fontan circulation having no heart “vacuum” at the end of the vena cavae; it is known to cause liver failure. We also intend to examine the hypothesis of Hsia et al. [6] that decreasing sub-diaphragmatic venous flow reversal will improve functional outcome of the Fontan.

Abstract:
In January 1996, Cogito, the U.S. challenger, defeated the Australian defender, Yellow Pages Edge, by the score of 4-0 in the twenty-second running of the International Catamaran Challenge Trophy. This brought the trophy better known as the Little America's Cup, back to the United States after an eleven year stay in Australia. The Cogito project was three years in length and encompassed the design/construction phase, initial sailing and tuning at her home the Bristol Yacht Club in Bristol, Rhode Island, and the final training and competition at the race venue, McCrae Yacht Club on Port Philip Bay south of Melbourne, Australia. This paper will cover all phases of the project from the design through the racing.

Abstract:
Protein C (PC) deficiency associated with hereditary venous thromboembolic disease was first reported in 1981 and is inherited as an autosomal dominant disorder. The prevalence of heterozygous PC deficiency is estimated to be 1 to 4% in venous thrombotic diseases. The homozygous PC deficiency is even rare, and has been reported in only about 10 families througout the world. It usually presents in newborn infants as purpura fulminans or severe thrombotic disease. We herein report two newborn brothers in a Chinese family, who manifested with purpura fulminans soon after birth and died at age of 21 days and 27 days respectively. Vitamin K was administered to the second baby after birth. Both parents are not consanguineous and there were no family histories of thromboembolism on paternal and maternal sides. Blood sample was not available for specific studies in the first baby. PC antigen level by electroimmunoassay was <6% in the second baby and 49% and 60% respectively in their mother and father. Antithrombin III activity by amidolytic method was 49% in the second baby, and 90% and 97% respectively in their mother and father. Vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors and factor V were within the expected range for a newborn. Factor VIII and fibrinogen level were notably decreased. Autopsy findings of the two newborns demonstrated the similar pictures characterized by fibrin thrombi in blood vessels causing extensive hemorrhagic infarts of skin, lung, liver, kidneys, testis, urinary bladder, esophagus and brain. Our Data indicate that neonatal purpura fulminans can be familial and caused by severe homozygous PC deficiency.

Abstract:
Occurring as a set of 17 chemical elements in the periodic table, rare earth elements such as neodymium are necessary for the development of mobile phones and magnet motors. Although securing rare earth elements is essential for economic growth of all nations, their demand is rapidly expanding among global powers such as Brazil, Russia, India, and China. Rare earth element deposits were discovered in the seafloor near hydrothermal vents in the 1980s. Japan has the sixth largest exclusive economic zone (EEZ) and is abundant in underwater natural resources such as a cobalt and a manganese mine. Because underwater exploration of rare earth elements was deemed unprofitable, the practice was suspended. Current advancements in underwater robotics, however, have led to economic viability in this venture. Such developments have resulted in the increased use of remote sensing with sonars on unmanned underwater vehicles. The Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC) developed a cruising autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) known as Urashima. This AUV performed its first sea trial in 2000, and cruise for 317 km without recharging or refueling in 2005 as a world record at the time. The first mission of Urashima was a vast sea exploration to investigate worldwide environmental crises such as global warming. However, the purpose of these missions has since then shifted primarily to the exploration of underwater natural resources. In addition, JAMSTEC developed a synthetic aperture sonar on a neutral buoyancy towfish in 2010. This underwater exploration system, known as Kyouryuu, scanned Wakamiko caldera at the sea bottom in Kagoshima Bay where volcanic activity was evident. Numerous hot-water flows from hydrothermal vents were clearly recorded. In addition, many dormant chimneys were detected. These features provide important data for estimating the distribution of hydrothermal vents and chimneys in addition to their transitions.

Dominican Republic and Mexico: Promote condom use by emphasizing personal benefits. Population Council, 2005. http://dx.doi.org/10.31899/rh16.1001.

Full text
Abstract:
Consistent and correct use of the male condom is a critical measure for preventing STI-related morbidity and mortality, yet condom use remains low worldwide and researchers have made limited progress in identifying positive factors that facilitate regular condom use. From 2001 to 2003 the Population Council explored the behavior of individuals who use condoms successfully. Findings on factors that facilitate or impede successful use could be used to develop more effective condom promotion strategies in family planning and STI prevention programs. The projects used qualitative data from successful condom users within three categories: male and female factory workers; male and female high school and university students; and female sex workers and their male clients. Researchers screened successful condom users through a 75-point scale that assessed the frequency and effectiveness of condom use as well as positive and negative experiences with condoms. Studies in the Dominican Republic and Mexico showed that regular condom users obtained personal benefits, including a sense of security. As noted in this summary, condom promotion initiatives should emphasize the positive aspects of condom use and make condoms available through alternative venues.
