  • Prehistoric Costume in Denmark 313
    CHAPTER X. PREHISTORIC COSTUME IN DENMARK 313 CHAPTER X PREHISTORIC COSTUME IN DENMARK Unlike the early Bronze Age oak coffin burials which yielded several complete costumes due to preserving properties in the oak and soil, none of the fragments excavated from Iron Age graves are identifiable as garments. Our primary source ofIron Age material, therefore, is bog finds although we dare not assume that they are complete costumes. Indeed, they are more likely to be isolated garments because such special conditions have evidently prevailed. A number of items have been alone, and even when a garment is recovered together with a body it is not always clear whether it represents man's or woman's clothing. CAPES Capes, long and short. One item of clothing is very predominant among bog finds, namely a short skin cape I), which seems to occur equally frequently together with bodies of either sex, and curiously enough several capes can be found with the same body. In Bauns~ Mose, for example, the body of a young man was recovered together with three capes, and in Karlby Mose four were found with one skeleton. Although accounts of the circumstances in which the body was found often lack important details, it is clear from several of them that the body in question was not clad in a cape but that the cape was wrapped round it, presumably to cover it. In 1942 a body was found in Daugbjerg Mose with pieces of skin cape, the collar with laces was at the feet of the corpse. In 1922 in Kayhausen2), Germany, a body was recovered from a bog with feet tied together by the laces of the collar.

  • The Status of Soil Survey in Albania and Some of Its Major Environmental Findings
    The Status of Soil Survey in Albania and some of its Major Environmental Findings Pandi Zdruli1 and Sherif Lushaj2 Introduction Over the last thirty years, a valuable experience has been accumulated in Albania, regarding soil survey and its applications. Initially it was the Soil Science Department of the Agricultural Univer- sity of Tirana who carried out soil activities, and then the Soil Science Institute (SSI) of Tirana, created in 1971 took the lead in all related ac- tivities. The latter is under the Ministry of Agri- culture and Food and it is the only one in the country specialised in soil science. Until the early 90s the Soil Science Institute, was very well organised, operating throughout the coun- try, by carrying out pedological surveys and fer- tility tests all over the agricultural land of Al- bania. Other activities included drainage and irri- gation research, soil microbiology, erosion con- trol, and topographic survey. There were 26 dis- tricts at the time in the country, each of them having their own soil laboratory and a specialised staff, among them one pedologist and one soil chem- ist. The Institute provided only scientific and technical guidelines for the “district soil of- fices”, since their management was handled by local administration. In twenty years period, detailed soil maps from 1: 10,000 to 1:50,000 scale, along with soil reports were prepared for each former agriculture co- 1 CIHEAM-Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Bari. 2 Soil Science Institute, Instituti i Studimit të Tokave, Ti- rana, Albania. 69 Options Méditerranéennes, Série B, vol. 34 The Status of Soil Survey in Albania and some of its Major Environmental Findings operative, state farm and district.

  • A Naturalist's Guide to the Great Plains
    Paul A. Johnsgard A Naturalist’s Guide to the Great Plains Sites, Species, and Spectacles This book documents nearly 500 US and Canadian locations where wildlife refuges, na- ture preserves, and similar properties protect natural sites that lie within the North Amer- ican Great Plains, from Canada’s Prairie Provinces to the Texas-Mexico border. Information on site location, size, biological diversity, and the presence of especially rare or interest- ing flora and fauna are mentioned, as well as driving directions, mailing addresses, and phone numbers or internet addresses, as available. US federal sites include 11 national grasslands, 13 national parks, 16 national monuments, and more than 70 national wild- life refuges. State properties include nearly 100 state parks and wildlife management ar- eas. Also included are about 60 national and provincial parks, national wildlife areas, and migratory bird sanctuaries in Canada’s Prairie Provinces. Numerous public-access prop- erties owned by counties, towns, and private organizations, such as the Nature Conser- vancy, National Audubon Society, and other conservation and preservation groups, are also described. Introductory essays describe the geological and recent histories of each of the five mul- tistate and multiprovince regions recognized, along with some of the author’s personal memories of them. The 92,000-word text is supplemented with 7 maps and 31 drawings by the author and more than 700 references. Cover photo by Paul Johnsgard. Back cover drawing courtesy of David Routon.

Being an important highquality date production region of Algeria, this area needs continuous monitoring of desertification indicators, hence highly exposed to climate- related risks. Given the limited access to field data, appropriate methods were assessed for the identification and change detection of salt-affected areas, involving image interpretation and automated classifications employing Landsat imagery, ancillary and multisource ground truth data. First, a visual photointerpretation study of the land cover and land use classes was undergone according to acknowledged methodologies.

  • Using Density Measurements to Study the Effect of Excision, Storage, Abscisic Acid, and Ethylene on Pithiness in Celery Petioles
    J. AMER. SOC. HORT. SCI. 121(1):137–141. 1996. Using Density Measurements to Study the Effect of Excision, Storage, Abscisic Acid, and Ethylene on Pithiness in Celery Petioles Mikal E. Saltveit and Mary E. Mangrich Mann Laboratory, Department of Vegetable Crops, University of California, Davis, CA 95616-8631 Additional key words, aerenchyma, lightly processed Abstract. The density of excised 2-cm celery (Apium graveolens L.) petiole segments was highly correlated with a subjective evaluation of pithiness. Loss of density and the appearance of pithiness was stimulated by lengthening the duration of storage, raising the storage temperatures above 0C, and excising petiole segments. Segments excised from the upper two- thirds of the petiole lost less density during storage than segments excised from the bottom third of the petiole. Segments with initial high densities lost slightly less density during storage at 5C for 5 weeks than segments that were initially less dense. The extent of pithiness development varied significantly among six cultivars held at 5C for 2 weeks. Treating whole petioles with 1 µM abscisic acid for 4 days significantly increased density loss. Exposing petiole segments to up to 100 µl·liter-1 ethylene in humidified air for up to 2 weeks at 5C did not significantly change density over air controls. The loss of density and the development of pithiness in lightly processed celery petioles could be reduced by selecting resistant cultivars, monitoring water stress during growth, using only segments excised from the upper two-thirds of the petiole, and selecting segments with initial high densities. Air spaces that form in the cortex of many plant tissues such as and Pressman (1980) also found that flooding and nutrient defi- celery petioles, corn roots, tomato stems, and roots of wetland ciency lead to pithiness, but not as rapidly as water deficit.
