Early Pliocene Varanus (Squamata, Varanidae) remains from Megalo Emvolon, Thessaloniki, Greece
The article describes new cranial and postcranial varanid material from Megalo Emvolon Lower Pliocene vertebrate fossil site near Thessaloniki. The fossils, likely representing a single individual, are referred to Varanus cf. marathonensis. Abstract This study describes new fossil varanid material from a recently discovered fossil spot (MVL site) at ...

Inventory of the Decapod Crustaceans (Crayfishes and Shrimps) of Arkansas with a Discussion of Their Habitats [PDF]
The freshwater decapod crustaceans of Arkansas presently consist of two species of shrimps and 51 taxa of crayfishes divided into 47 species and four subspecies. The shrimps are represented by Macrobranchium ohione and Palaemonetes kadiakensis.

Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

Sensitivity of coastal jet structure to coastal topography
Fifth Conference on Coastal Atmospheric and Oceanic Prediction and Processes, August 5-8, 2003 A low-level core of high wind speeds aligned along the U.S. West Coast, known as the coastal jet, is a persistent feature during the summer months. The seasonal preference for such a feature is a function of several conditions; warm temperatures inland, cool ...

Concepts of Design of Coastal Structures
Certain design of the existing and proposed coastal structures for lateral loading in the United States is presently based upon the use of timber which is structurally inefficient in the elastic range. Figure 1, for example, indicates the plan of timber pile structure.

Dental crown morphological variation and heterodonty in carcharhiniform sharks
Abstract Elasmobranch teeth are highly mineralized structures that constitute the majority of the fossil record for this group. Despite their taxonomic and evolutionary significance, detailed descriptions of dental morphology remain scarce. The order Carcharhiniformes, the most diverse among sharks, comprises 304 valid species that display remarkable ...

ECONOMICS OF COASTAL STRUCTURES
The engineer is constantly called upon to make an economic analysis of proposed engineering works. His analysis is just as trustworthy as his base information. In some cases experience and knowledge are so complete that an estimate can be accepted with assurance of great accuracy.
