    A madarak palaeontologiájának története és irodalma. Irta : DR. Lambrecht Kálmán. Minden ismeret történetének eredete többé-kevésbbé homályba vész. Az els úttörk még maguk is csak tapogatóznak; leírásaik — a kezdet nehézségeivel küzdve — nem szabatosak, több bennük a sej- dít, mint a positiv elem. Fokozottan áll ez a palaeontologiára, amely- nek gyakran bizony igen hiányos anyaga gazdag recens összehasonlító anyagot és alapos morphologiai ismereteket igényel. A palaeontologia legismertebb történetíróinak, MARSH-nak^ és ZiTTEL-nek2 chronologiai beosztásait figyelmen kívül hagyva, ehelyütt Abel3 szellemes beosztását fogadjuk el és megkülönböztetünk a madár- palaeontologia történetében 1. phantasticus, 2. descriptiv és 3. morpho- logiai és phylogenetikai periódust. Nagyon természetes, hogy a fossilis madarak ismerete karöltve haladt a recens madarak osteologiájának megismerésével, 4 mert a palaeon- tologus csakis recens comparativ anyag és vizsgálatok alapján foghat munkához. De viszont igaz az is, hogy a morphologus sem mozdulhat meg az si alakok vázrendszerének ismerete nélkül, nem is szólva arról, hogy a gyakran nagyon töredékes fossilis maradványok mennyi érdekes morphologiai megfigyelésre vezették már a búvárokat. A phantasticus periódus. Ez a periódus, amely — összehasonlítás hiján — túlnyomóan speculativ alapon mvelte a tudományt, a XVIll. századdal, vagyis CuviER felléptével végzdik.

BUniversity of Maryland, Department of Geography, 2181 Lefrak Hall, College Park, MD 20742, USA. CInstitute of Computer Modeling, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Krasnoyarsk, Russia. DCorresponding author. Email: [email protected] Abstract. In the 1990s, catastrophic fires affected ∼8 million ha of forest lands in the Russian Far East, including forests of Sakhalin Island.A study that correlated the spatial distribution of burned area and topographic features (elevation, slope, aspect) was carried out for Sakhalin Island. Burned area information derived from forest inventory maps (1935 to 1990) and satellite imagery (1998) was digitised and entered into a Geographic Information System. The burned area locations were correlated with topographic information; the normalisation procedure allows for analysis of the dependence of the fire scars on landscape features. The analyses show that fires occur primarily on the eastern, south- and north-eastern facing areas; >90% of fires occur at elevations lower than 300 m, and >95% occur on slopes <10 degrees. For the period 1935 to 1998, ∼54% of the Sakhalin Island forest land territory was burned. From the total area of fire scars, formed from 1935 to 1998, 90.5% occurred owing to single fires, 8.6% of fire scars were the result of burning by two fires, 0.9% of fire scars were from three fires, and 0.03% from four fires.

  • Buoyant Robot Sales in North America
    United Nations Economic Commission for Europe Embargo: 20 October 2004, 11:00 hours (Geneva time) Press Release ECE/STAT/04/P07 Geneva, 20 October 2004 Buoyant robot sales in North America Robot sales jumped 28% in 2003…. North American investment in industrial robots increased from about 3,900 units to almost 12,800 units in the period 1992-1999. In 2000, sales increased by 1% to almost 13,000 units (see figure 1). The recession took its toll in 2001 and 2002, when shipments fell by 17% and 8%, respectively. As a comparison, the value of the American market for machine tools fell by as much as 36%. Robot investments seem to be less sensitive to recession than other types of investment goods. This slump in robot sales was, however, temporary because in 2003 robot investment jumped by 28%. ...and continued to show strong growth in the first half of 2004 Orders from North American customers surged by 18% in the first half of 2004, compared with the same period in 2003. For the period 2004-2007, the market in North America is projected to grow by a yearly average of 6%. Over 100,000 robots in operation At the end of 2003, the operational robot stock in North America is estimated to have reached approximately 112,000 units, representing an increase of 7% over 2002. By the end of 2007, the stock of operational robots is estimated to reach at least 145,000 units. United States lagging behind the European Union… For every 10,000 persons employed in the United States manufacturing industry at the end of 2003, there were 63 industrial robots, compared with 148 in Germany and 93 in the European Union (see figure 2).

  • Diversity of Winter-Flying Moths in the Maryville College Woods
    DIVERSITY OF WINTER-FLYING MOTHS IN THE MARYVILLE COLLEGE WOODS A Report of a Senior Study by Marley Smith Major: Biology Maryville College Fall, 2016 Date approved , by Faculty Supervisor Date approved , by Division Chair ABSTRACT Lepidopterans, commonly referred to as butterflies and moths, are some of the most widely studied flying insects. Heterocera, or moths, are valuable to ecological and conservational research due to their diversity and geographical range. Their sensitivity to environmental shifts makes them a key indicator species for a variety of climates and habitat types. The goal of this study was to sample the moth population of the Maryville College Woods, a 0.56 km2, mixed-mesophytic forest area in Maryville, Tennessee. Over the course of a three-month winter sampling period, thirty-two species from families Crambidae, Erebidae, Gracillariidae (unknown species), Gelechiidae, Geometridae, Noctuidae and Tortricidae were captured and preserved for identification. The most active temperature range for moths was 8.9 to 12.8˚C, and the most active flight time was between 19:00 and 20:00, when 65.2% of specimens were caught. The null hypothesis that neither temperature (P<0.0001) nor time of day (P<0.0001) would have an effect on the flight of moths over the course of the study was rejected. Several species not found in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park were documented in this study, including undescribed or unusual species, and many ecologically significant pests. With continued sampling and documentation of Lepidopteran species in the Maryville College Woods, this study provides a valuable tool to monitor species and ecosystem function in a fragmented and isolated habitat.
