Original specimens and type localities of early described polychaete species (Annelida) from Norway, with particular attention to species described by O.F. Müller and M. Sars. Memoirs of Museum Victoria 71: 217–236. Early descriptions of species from Norwegian waters are reviewed, with a focus on the basic requirements for re- assessing their characteristics, in particular, by clarifying the status of the original material and locating sampling sites. A large number of polychaete species from the North Atlantic were described in the early period of zoological studies in the 18th and 19th centuries. -

Of the 34 comatulid species, over 60% are endemic to the region; of the 10 stalked species, 90% are endemic. -
Isocrinid Crinoids from the Late Cenozoic of Jamaica
A tlantic G eology 195 Isocrinid crinoids from the late Cenozoic of Jamaica Stephen K. Donovan Department of Geology, University of the West Indies, Mona, Kingston 7, Jamaica Date Received April 8, 1994 Date A ccepted A ugust 26, 1994 Eight species of isocrinines have been documented from the Lower Cretaceous to Pleistocene of Jamaica. New finds include a second specimen of a Miocene species from central north Jamaica, previously regarded as Diplocrinus sp. but reclassified as Teliocrinus? sp. herein. Extant Teliocrinus is limited to the Indian Ocean, although Miocene specimens have been recorded from Japan, indicating a wider distribution during the Neogene. One locality in the early Pleistocene Manchioneal Formation of eastern Jamaica has yielded three species of isocrinine, Cenocrirtus asterius (Linne), Diplocrinus maclearanus (Thomson) and Neocrinus decorus Thomson. These occur in association with the bourgueticrinine Democrinus sp. or Monachocrinus sp. These taxa are all extant and suggest a minimum depositional depth for the Manchioneal Formation at this locality of about 180 m. This early Pleistocene fauna represents the most diverse assemblage of fossil crinoids docu mented from the Antillean region. Huit especes d’isocrinines de la periode du Cretace inferieur au Pleistocene de la Jamai'que ont ete documentees. Les nouvelles decouvertes comprennent un deuxieme specimen d’une espece du Miocene du nord central de la Jamai'que, auparavant consideree comme l’espece Diplocrinus, mais reclassifiee en tant que Teliocrinus? aux presentes. Le Teliocrinus existant est limite a l’ocean Indien, meme si on a releve des specimens du Miocene au Japon, ce qui est revelateur d’une distribution plus repandue au cours du Neogene. -

Fartøyene Og Mennene Som Ga Dem Navn
Fartøyene og mennene som ga dem navn ... 1 G.O. Sars Innhold Havforskningsinstituttet i dag 1-9 Mennene som ga fartøyene navn 10-30 Dagens flåte 30-40 Teksten bygger på en tidligere publikasjon skrevet av Per Solemdal og Sigmund Myklevoll. Revidert i 2008 av Erling Bakken og Ingunn Bakketeig. 2 Havforskningsinstituttet i dag Havforskningsinstituttets oppgaver Havforskningsinstituttets visjon er ”Kunnskap og råd for rike og rene hav- og kystområder”. Dette betyr at vi skal utføre forskningsoppdrag som kan gi myndig- heter, næring og samfunn et bredt og pålitelig grunnlag for forvaltning av våre marine økosystemer. Målet for forvaltningen er å verne det marine miljøet og sikre et langsiktig, godt utbytte fra fiskebestandene, andre levende ressurser og fra havbruket. Økosystemene og miljøforholdene krever at en slik forvaltning baseres på et utstrakt internasjonalt samarbeid, både på forsker- og myndighetsnivå. En viktig del av forskningen er rettet mot bestander som danner grunnlaget for norske fiskerier. Ved å overvåke endringer og stadig forbedre kunnskapen, blir beregninger av bestandenes produksjon mer pålitelig og forvaltningen derfor bedre. Miljøforskningen har også en bred plass, både for å overvåke klimatiske endringer og kjemisk forurensning, og for å undersøke hvordan dette kan påvirke livs- vilkårene for levende marine ressurser. I utviklingen av norsk havbruk bidrar Havforskningsinstituttet med ny, grunn- leggende biologisk kunnskap om laksefisk, marine arter og skalldyr. Her inngår bl.a. genetikk, fysiologi, fiskevelferd og fiskehelse. Andre forskningsoppgaver omfatter økosystemet i kystsonen, bunndyrsamfunn på kontinentalsokkelen og fangstteknologi. Forskningen ved Havforskningsinstituttet blir initiert og finansiert gjennom fem forsknings- og rådgivingsprogram og fem rene forskningsprogram. Forskningen utføres i 19 faggrupper. -

Nederst til høyre et utsnitt av maleriet av Peter Waage malt av Bjarne Falk i 1907 etter fotografiet på side 61. Maleriet henger i møterom VU 24 på Kjemisk instituttet. Seglet er tatt fra Forelesningskatalogen fra vårsemesteret 1920. Figuren er av den greske guden Apollon – en mann selv om figuren ikke ser slik ut. Et slikt segl har vært i bruk som universitetets lakkstempel i så lenge universitetet het Det kongelige Frederiks universitet (Universitatis Regia Fredericiana) fra 1814 til 1938. (Tove Nielsen: Nei dessverre ... Apollon 7 (2000).) Forord Peter Waage er den mest berømte norske kjemiker på 1800-tallet. Takket være massevirkningsloven lever hans navn videre i kjemibøker over hele verden. Han kom fra Hidra - en liten øy mellom Øst- og Vestlandet som den gang, da trafikken gikk lettere til sjøs enn på land, var mer internasjonal enn Christiania. Hva slags mann var han? Hva er egentlig massevirkningsloven? Hva gjorde han ellers? Kjemien hadde sin storhetstid på 1800-tallet. Da fikk kjemien sitt eget språk hvor de kjemiske symbolene for grunnstoffene var bokstavene, formlene var ordene og reaksjonsligningene var setningene. Analysemetodene ble forbedret og mange nye stoffer ble fremstilt. -

ICES Marine Science Symposia, 215: 39^4. 2002 Internationalist and Norwegian at the same time: Johan Hjort and ICES Vera Schwach Schwach, V 2002. Internationalist and Norwegian at the same time: Johan Hjort and ICES. - ICES Marine Science Symposia, 215: 39-44. The marine biologist Johan Hjort (1869-1948) remained at the forefront of Norwegian marine research for more than half a century. He also belonged to a small group of Scandinavians who, around 1900, committed themselves to founding ICES. For a small nation, international collaboration was considered crucial for maintaining the quality of research. The marine sciences were also a source of national pride, an area in which Norway could and did shine internationally. For almost fifty years, Hjort was one of the Council’s leading characters both as a scientist and as an organizer. In the formative years of ICES, Hjort established a programme for fishery studies integrating national and international investigations. While the British and German scientists were preoccupied with the problem of overfishing, Hjort was the foremost spokesman for focusing on nat ural variations in the catches. In 1914, he and his colleagues at the Directorate of Fisheries concluded their research by publishing "Fluctuations in the great fisheries of northern Europe". This report laid out theoretical foundations of the emerging field and improved the Council’s scientific reputation. His experiences within the ICES communi ty also influenced Hjort's political ideas and work. Like his compatriot, the biologist and oceanographer Fridtjof Nansen, Hjort held that building scientific and cultural bonds and establishing agreements in these areas between nations were essential for avoiding the hubris amongst nations and lessening the chance of war in Europe. -
The Effect of Sublethal Predation on the Biology of Echinoderms
OCEANOLOGICA ACTA- VOL. 19- W 3-4 ~ -----~- Dis turban ce The effect of sublethal predation Predation Sublethal predation on the biology of echinoderms Echinoderms Perturbation Prédation Prédation sublétale Echinoderme John M. LA WREN CE a and Julio VASQUEZ b a Department of Biology, University of South Florida, Tampa, FL 33620, U.S.A. b Departamento de Biologia Marina, Universidad Cat6lica del Norte, Coquimbo, Chile. Received 17/01/95, in revised form 08/01196, accepted 11101196. ABSTRACT In contrast to plants, predation on animais is usually lethal. Analysis of the effect of predation on animal populations and on predator-prey dynamics typically assumes this is the case. However, sublethal predation occurs in echinoderms, primarily on the arms of crinoids, asteroids, and ophiuroids. Sublethal predation is important in the se echinoderms as it meets one of Harris' ( 1989) major crite ria, affecting basic biological processes such as acquisition of food and allocation of nutrients to growth and reproduction. Sublethal predation would have an effect on their ecological role. It is essential to consider sublethal predation in the analysis of the life-histories of these species. RÉSUMÉ Les effets de la prédation sublétale sur la biologie des échino dermes. A l'inverse de la plante, l'animal subit une prédation qui lui est habituellement mortelle. Ceci est confirmé par la plupart des analyses de prédation au sein des populations animales et de la dynamique prédateur/proie. Cependant une préda tion sublétale c'est-à-dire sans effet fatal, existe chez les échinodermes, principa lement chez les crinoïdes, astéries et ophiures. Pour répondre à cette définition, ce genre de prédation doit répondre au critère de Harris ( 1989) c'est-à-dire influencer les processus de base tels que la croissance et la reproduction et varier en fonction de la densité de la population en cause.
