Organization and distribution of glomeruli in the bowhead whale olfactory bulb [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 Although modern baleen whales (Mysticeti) retain a functional olfactory system that includes olfactory bulbs, cranial nerve I and olfactory receptor genes, their olfactory capabilities have been reduced to a great degree.

The deep-sea macrobenthos on the continental slope of the northwestern Mediterranean Sea: a quantitative approach [PDF]
, 1999 As part of the ECOMARGE operation (J.G.O.F.S. France), macrobenthic assemblages in the Toulon Canyon were described and quantified on the basis of sampling carried out between 250 and 2000 m depth on the Mediterranean continental slope. Results show that

Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Continued Arctic warming and sea‐ice loss will have important implications for the conservation of ringed seals, a highly ice‐dependent species. A better understanding of their spatial ecology will help characterize emerging ecological trends and inform ...

Serological Detection of Marine Origin Brucella Exposure in Two Alaska Beluga Stocks
Animals, 2022 Among emerging threats to the Arctic is the introduction, spread, or resurgence of disease. Marine brucellosis is an emerging disease concern among free-ranging cetaceans and is less well-studied than terrestrial forms.

Design selection and dynamic response analysis of CFG pile composite foundation in soft soil areas
Frontiers in Materials, 2022 The construction of roads along rivers plays a crucial role in the construction of economic belts and social and economic development along rivers. Roadbeds are the foundation of highway construction, while the soft soil foundation is widely distributed ...

Whales, lifespan, phospholipids, and cataracts[S]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2017 This study addresses the question: why do rats get cataracts at 2 years, dogs at 8 years, and whales do not develop cataracts for 200 years? Whale lens lipid phase transitions were compared with the phase transitions of other species that were ...

On the slope of fibred surfaces [PDF]
Nagoya Mathematical Journal, 2001 We give an asymptotically sharp lower bound for the slope λ(f) of a fibration f : S → B, where S is a surface and B is a curve, if there exists an involution on the general fibre F of f. We also construct a new lower bound of λ(f) depending increasingly on the irregularity of S; as an application of this new bound we have a criteria to control the ...

Slope failure in the rectilinear zone of hillsides [PDF]
, 1987 1987-03地形解析により斜面を傾斜変換帯とそれ以外の地域に分け、それぞれの地域における崩壊発生頻度、崩壊面積、上部変換線から崩壊発生位置までの距離について検討した。その結果、傾斜変換帯の上部地域に崩壊が多発していることが明らかになった。また土壌の深さについては、崩壊地の上部で厚く、下部で薄くなっているが、崩壊地に近接する未崩壊斜面では逆の傾向がみられた。これらを総合して、表層土壌の深さの不均一さが、傾斜変換帯上部における浸透水の集中と崩壊の発生に密接に関係していると考えられた。従って ...
