MAZER, RUTH G. SHAW, AND ARTHUR E. WEIS In rare circumstances, scientists have been able to revive dormant propagules from ancestral populations and rear them with their descendants to make inferences about evolutionary responses to environmental change. Although this is a powerful approach to directly assess microevolution, it has previously depended entirely upon fortuitous conditions to preserve ancestral material. -

OR some time past I have, as too rare opportunity offered, F been trying to sol\'e certain structural problems in the Lake District. For the most part this \\'ork has consisted in following certain geological lines across country, particularly the junctions of lavas and tuffs. This has involved or occasioned observations on the volcanic phenomena; and, as the district is readily accessible, of infinite variety, and of unequalled interest among British areas of igneous rocks, I have thought that a considera• tion of the vulcanicity, though as yet imperfectly kno\\'n, and some discussion of the light which it throws on igneous action generally, would be of interest to the Geologists' Associa• tion. The main strip of mixed intrusive and volcanic rocks covers a wild mountain area of over 400 square miles, containing such famous heights as Scawfell and Helvellyn, and surrounding wholly or partly the lakes of Ennerdale, Buttermere, Derwent• water, Ullswater, Thirlmere, \Vastwater, Haweswater, Devoke \Vater, Coniston, Grasmere, Rydal, ElterWater and Winder• mere, with many lesser tarns. Every part is easily visited; the exposures are magnificent and the existence of complex systems uf folding, intersected by deep valleys, enables the various horizons to be examined along numerous lines and some re• construction of their original form and extent to be attempted. -

The Institute is part of the Terrestrial and Freshwater Sciences Directorate, and was established in 1973 by the merger of the research stations of the Nature Conservancy with the Institute of Tree Biology. It has been at the forefront of ecological research ever since. The six research stations of the Institute provide a ready access to sites and to environmental and ecological problems in any part of Britain. In addition to the broad environmental knowledge and experience expected of the modern ecologist, each station has a range of special expertise and facilities.
