Zofia Kielan-Jaworowska and the Gobi Palaeontological Expeditions
ZOFIA KIELAN-JAWOROWSKA AND THE GOBI PALAEONTOLOGICAL EXPEDITIONS JOHN R. LAVAS During an illustrious scientific career that lasted more than 60 years, the late Zofia Kielan-Jaworowska greatly advanced the direction of research in several branches of invertebrate and vertebrate palaeontology. The general public largely knew Zofia as the leader of the famous joint Polish-Mongolian Gobi Expeditions of the 1960s–1970s and the spectacular (mainly dinosaurian) fossils that resulted from those ventures. Indeed, an enduring image that I associate with her name shows Zofia standing beneath one of her discov- eries, the enigmatic theropod Deinocheirus. Momentous as such finds were, Zofia’s principal research area was the phylogenetic relationships of the Mesozoic mammals retrieved during those expeditions, specifi- cally evidence from their brain structure and musculature. It is within this realm that she left her greatest scientific legacy in what had previously been a relatively poorly-developed branch of palaeontology due to the paucity and fragility of fossil material. As well as attaining the forefront of her chosen field, Zofia was a humanist with a unique ability to forge successful collaborations between researchers from the former Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (COMECON) countries and their Western counterparts at a time in history when it was difficult to do so. The inclination to rank Zofia alongside her compatriot Marie Curie (1867–1934) is not only appropriate in terms of the impact each made to science, but the fact that Zofia’s late husband was a radiobiologist and that they had spent two years working in Paris is surely more than coinci- dental. -
Waterbirds of Lake Baikal, Eastern Siberia, Russia
FORKTAIL 25 (2009): 13–70 Waterbirds of Lake Baikal, eastern Siberia, Russia JIŘÍ MLÍKOVSKÝ Lake Baikal lies in eastern Siberia, Russia. Due to its huge size, its waterbird fauna is still insufficiently known in spite of a long history of relevant research and the efforts of local and visiting ornithologists and birdwatchers. Overall, 137 waterbird species have been recorded at Lake Baikal since 1800, with records of five further species considered not acceptable, and one species recorded only prior to 1800. Only 50 species currently breed at Lake Baikal, while another 11 species bred there in the past or were recorded as occasional breeders. Only three species of conservation importance (all Near Threatened) currently breed or regularly migrate at Lake Baikal: Asian Dowitcher Limnodromus semipalmatus, Black-tailed Godwit Limosa limosa and Eurasian Curlew Numenius arquata. INTRODUCTION In the course of past centuries water levels in LB fluctuated considerably (Galaziy 1967, 1972), but the Lake Baikal (hereafter ‘LB’) is the largest lake in Siberia effects on the local avifauna have not been documented. and one of the largest in the world.

CSHPS Abstracts 2013 1
CSHPS Abstracts 2013 A Fault in Our Star: Science, Sunspots, and the Economics of W. S. Jevons Calum Agnew University of King's College [email protected] British economist and philosopher of science William Stanley Jevons published a series of papers in the 19th century alleging a connection between sunspots and commercial crises in England. Jevons' work on sunspots has often been criticized by his contemporaries working in statistics and economic--and even historians of economics--for being wrong, silly, or ridiculous; a peculiar blemish on an otherwise exceptional career. In the words of Ekelund and Hébert, his sunspot theory was "the most fanciful and, ultimately, ridiculed idea of his life." Jevons, a trained chemist and the foremost economist and logician in Britain, appears to have made the most basic of statistical errors: confusing correlation and causation--an error that he would never recant. However, an examination of the literature published on the causes of sunspots, and their effects on the weather in the 19th century makes it clear that Jevons's theory was not unprecedented, and had strong theoretical justification. Jevons's work on sunspots was a work of synthesis--an attempt to both make economics scientific, and unite scientific knowledge with economic theory.

Literary Geographies of Possession, Separation and Transformation James Kneale
Islands: Literary Geographies of Possession, Separation and Transformation James Kneale Fictional islands are distinctive, significant literary geographies. This chapter sets out to explore these sites by way of a consideration of ‘island theory’ and Mikhail Bakhtin’s discussions of the chronotope. While the field of ‘island studies’ covers a suitably scattered territory, an archipelago of loosely connected ideas, it is possible to summarise three important and related characteristics of literary islands: possession, separation, and transformation.1 While the islands of Robinson Crusoe (1719) and the castaways who followed him have been understood as spaces seized, mastered and known by their ‘discoverers’, agents of mercantile capitalism or imperialism, possession depends upon the island’s initial separation from other spaces, though this is usually relative rather than absolute.2 Separation is also what makes the fictional island a space of transformation, a laboratory in which new selves, spaces and ideas are made. Crusoe’s reshaping of the island also allows him to transform himself, for example. This transformative potential is present in many of the most famous fictional islands, which often display elements of the fantastic, non-realist tropes that allow authors to explore the limits of language and representation.3 The island is a natural setting for the novel of ideas, in fact, because it allows the narration of encounters with otherness, encounters that prompt new experiences and identities. Even Robinson Crusoe, ostensibly a -

The use of aircraft in the Soviet Arctic was affected accordingly, with economic and See table of contents developmental needs privileged over scientific ones. In line with its cultivation of pilots as national heroes, the Stalinist regime also took advantage of the international and domestic popular appeal of polar aviators—and the many Publisher(s) exploits they staged in 1928 and afterward—to generate positive publicity for itself. Integrating Arctic aviation into the larger cultural framework of socialist CSTHA/AHSTC realism, the USSR’s state-controlled media complex transformed polar fliers into symbols of Soviet virtue, exemplifying not just trailblazing courage, ISSN aptitude, and the mastery of futuristic technology—motifs common to the 0829-2507 (print) aviation cultures of many countries during this era—but also self-discipline 1918-7750 (digital) and collective effort on behalf of the Soviet homeland and the attainment of socialist utopia. -
