The structure of the adrenal tissue was investigated by both histological and histochemical techniques. It is shown that the adrenal contains 4 types of tissues; these are named the steroid, Stilling, lymphoid, and chromaffin tissues. The structure of the adrenal in the bullfrog does not provide any evidence to support a theory of zonation within the cortical tissue of the Anura, as suggested b...

The water cushion depth of stilling basin with shallow-water cushion is a key factor that 13 affects the flow regime of hydraulic jump in the basin. However, the specific depth at which the 14 water cushion is considered as “shallow” has not be stated clearly for now, and only conceptual 15 description is provided. This paper attempts to specify the best water cushion depth based on the 16 flow...

Abstract The hydraulic performance of stilling basins is affected by their size and geometry. Taunsa Barrage, Pakistan, was constructed in 1958 remodelled 2008. In remodelling, baffle friction blocks were replaced chute dentated sill. After sounding, probing data during 2010–2014 revealed that flexible apron front some bays washed away. This study quantified parameters such as free surface, flo...

Background: Hydraulic jump is considered the most appropriate option for designers to dissipate energy through stilling basins. Methods: Tests on a screen that produced submerged hydraulic were conducted of water passing beneath vertical gate. Various positions in sudden expanding basin investigated. In comparison no-screen case, effect downstream gate surface profile was also Results: The best...

[1] Near-surface wind speeds (u) measured by terrestrial anemometers show declines (a ‘stilling’) at a range of midlatitude sites, but two gridded u datasets (a NCEP/NCAR reanalysis output and a surface-pressure-based u model) have not reproduced the stilling observed at Australian stations. We developed Australia-wide 0.01 resolution daily u grids by interpolating measurements from an expanded...
