STOCK DEFINITION AND GEOGRAPHIC RANGE There are two species of pilot whales in the Western Atlantic — the Atlantic or long-finned pilot whale, Globicephala melas, and the short-finned pilot whale, G. macrorhynchus. These species are difficult to identify to the species level at sea; therefore, some of the descriptive material below refers to Globicephala spp., and is identified as such. The spe...

STOCK DEFINITION AND GEOGRAPHIC RANGE The short-finned pilot whale is distributed worldwide in tropical to warm temperate waters (Leatherwood and Reeves 1983). There are two species of pilot whales in the western North Atlantic the Atlantic or long-finned pilot whale, Globicephala melas, and the short-finned pilot whale, G. macrorhynchus. These species are difficult to differentiate at sea; the...

Regarding Brazilian coast, industrial and urban developments are concentrated along Central South Brazil Bight. Samples from inshore and offshore species from the concerned area were analyzed, comprising 24 cetaceans (9 species) and 32 squids (2 species). Cadmium was determined by GFAAS and our results were in agreement with certified values (DOLT-2, NRCC). Mean cadmium concentration (in microg...

B-doped 3C-SiC nanowires have been synthesized via a facile and simple carbothermal reduction method at 1500 °C for 2 h in a flowing purified argon atmosphere. The obtained nanowires possess a single crystalline and finned microstructure with fins about 100-200 nm in diameter and 10-20 nm in thickness. The diameter of the inner core stem is about 80 nm on average. Due to the smaller band gap, t...

The detection of the prodynorphin gene in anuran amphibians and lungfishes may indicate that this gene arose as a result of the duplication of the proenkephalin gene early during the divergence of the Sarcopterygii, or that this gene may predate the divergence of the ray-finned fish and the lobe-finned fish. The cloning of prodynorphin-related genes from the pufferfish and zebrafish supports th...

The anti-predator behaviours of a New Zealand freshwater crayfish (Paranephrops zealandicus) to the native long-finned eel (Anguilla dieffenbachii) and the introduced brown trout (Salmo trutta) were investigated. Crayfish modified their behaviour in the presence of both trout and eels. However, a significantly greater number of defensive chela displays and swimming responses were made to eels t...

Finless rockets are more efficient than finned designs, but are too unstable to fly unassisted. These rockets require an active guidance system to control their orientation during flight and maintain stability. Because rocket dynamics are highly non-linear, developing such a guidance system can be prohibitively costly, especially for relatively small-scale rockets such as sounding rockets. In t...

conv hAs (Ts T ) where As is the heat transfer surface area and h is the convection heat transfer coefficient. When the temperatures Ts and T are fixed by design considerations, as is often the case, there are two ways to increase the rate of heat transfer: to increase the convection heat transfer coefficient h or to increase the surface area As. Increasing h may require the installation of a p...

Decoupling of the upper jaw bones--jaw kinesis--is a distinctive feature of the ray-finned fishes, but it is not clear how the innovation is related to the extraordinary diversity of feeding behaviours and feeding ecology in this group. We address this issue in a lineage of ray-finned fishes that is well known for its ecological and functional diversity--African rift lake cichlids. We sequenced...

A sample of 189 short-finned eels (Anguilla australis) from four geographical areas in New Zealand were examined for the occurrence of the swimbladder nematode Anguillicola spp. Anguillicola novaezelandiae was found in three of the four localities. Overall, the prevalence was low (<12%) as was the intensity of infection (between 1 and 5 parasites per infected eel). In comparison with data from ...
