  • Books from Both Side of the Ditch
    Tidewater Tales: Books from Both Sides of the Ditch Book Collecting Contest January 21, 2019 1 Swimming in the Chesapeake Bay is one of the great joys of my life, from jumping off the bow of my parents Morgan 30’ as a child to swim in the almost fresh and almost always nettle-less Sassafras River, to moonlight swimming in the Chesapeake Bay proper from the beach at the end of the street where I grew up in Arundel on the Bay, and even the frosty exhilarance which comes with the Polar Bear Plunge at Sandy Point State Park. If you grew up within a 25 mile radius of the Chesapeake Bay, you refer to it ubiquitously as the Bay, an omnipresent waterway which bisects Maryland in two. And while the Bay can be experienced a number of ways be it sailing, powerboating, fishing, crabbing, or even a stroll at the water’s edge; swimming puts you in the middle of it. It is in this way that swimming is an apt metaphor for the experience of reading. Swimming in the Bay can take many forms too: from doggy paddling on the surface on the first perfect day in May, to diving down to murky black bottom looking for some refreshing water in late summer. Swimming is endlessly satisfying, an activity for both young and old, yet another way it is just like reading. It is hard to gain any perspective when you are swimming at the surface, so this collection is an attempt at providing some, about a beautifully varied subject.

TRUITT* The program of work at the Chesapeake Biological Laboratory is being developed in a direction that will further the understand- ing of biological principles underlying conservation planning as well as to encourage the development of fundamental research. Efforts largely are centered in two directions, namely, research and teaching. Research problems are broad in their scope and many of them possess an important bearing on the preservation of natural resources in animal and plant life. Instructional work pertains to basic biology and to the status of natural resources as well as remedial measures that may assist in their development. Substantial progress was made in 1938 both in respect to additions made in the physical plant and to the problems effec- tively pursued by an energetic staff. The completion of a new and adequate building placed at the disposal of those working at Solmo- mons Island a greatly needed adjunct for the continuation of studies throughout the year. Much added equipment and space has been made available for the program being pursued, in the form of boats, technical apparatus, and added construction work for storage, Problems previously in course of study were continued dur- ing the current year, while new researches, in part economic and in part abstract, were initiated on Protozoa, on certain of the fin-fishes, and on new phases of the hydrography of the region.

How does it differ from other news — the news of science, for ex- ample, or the news of environmen- talism or history? To paraphrase the Roman poet Horace, “The purpose of literature is to delight and to teach.” It is not enough to “teach” (as would, say, history or science); or to “delight” (as would, say, some forms of popular culture) — literature does both at once.

  • Biology of Amphibians William E
    40 Years of Evolution Darwin's Finches on Daphne Major Island Peter R. Grant, B. Rosemary Grant Princeton University Press (2014) Summary: Renowned evolutionary biologists Peter and Rosemary Grant have produced landmark studies of the Galápagos finches first made famous by Charles Darwin. In How and Why Species Multiply, they offered a complete evolutionary history of Darwin's finches since their origin almost three million years ago. Now, in their richly illustrated new book, 40 Years of Evolution, the authors turn their attention to events taking place on a contemporary scale. By continuously tracking finch populations over a period of four decades, they uncover the causes and consequences of significant events leading to evolutionary changes in species. The authors used a vast and unparalleled range of ecological, behavioral, and genetic data--including song recordings, DNA analyses, and feeding and breeding behavior--to measure changes in finch populations on the small island of Daphne Major in the Galápagos archipelago. They find that natural selection happens repeatedly, that finches hybridize and exchange genes rarely, and that they compete for scarce food in times of drought, with the remarkable result that the finch populations today differ significantly in average beak size and shape from those of forty years ago. The authors' most spectacular discovery is the initiation and establishment of a new lineage that now behaves as a new species, differing from others in size, song, and other characteristics. The authors emphasize the immeasurable value of continuous long-term studies of natural populations and of critical opportunities for detecting and understanding rare but significant events.
