We present recent observation results of Sgr A* at millimeter obtained with VLBI arrays in Korea and Japan.
7 mm monitoring of Sgr A* is part of our AGN large project. The results at 7 epochs during 2013-2014, including high resolution maps, flux density and two-dimensional size measurements are presented. The source shows no significant variation in flux and structure related to the G2 encounter in 2014. According to recent MHD simulations by kawashima et al., flux and magnetic field energy can be expected to increase several years after the encounter; We will keep our monitoring in order to test this prediction.
Astrometric observations of Sgr A* were performed in 2015 at 7 and 3.5 millimeter simultaneously. Source-frequency phase referencing was applied and a combined ”core-shift” of Sgr A* and a nearby calibrator was measured. Future observations and analysis are necessary to determine the core-shift in each source.

Of the surface antigens identified by radio-iodination, two-dimensional gel analyses showed no similarities between those of Schistosoma haematobium and Schistosoma mansoni, thus providing a basis for the species specificity of these antigens described previously (Simpson, Knight, Hagan, Hodgson, Wilkins & Smithers (1985) Parasitology 90, 499–508). The surface antigens of S. haematobium were glycosylated and comprised an acidic polypeptide of Mr 17000 as well as a complex set of polypeptides of approximate pI 6–7, which resolved in the Mr range 20000–30000. At least one of the lower Mr forms of this complex is also present in the adult worm. Limited cross-reaction was observed with S. mansoni infection sera and this may be due to a shared carbohydrate epitope. In contrast, extensive cross-reaction was observed using sera from mice immunized with S. bovis. This pattern parallels the species-specificity of vaccine-induced immunity. Extensive cross-reaction was also observed within cell-free translation products of m-RNA from adult worms of S. haematobium and S. mansoni by use of heterologous human infection sera. The few antigens which were species-specific may represent surface antigens.

Summary
Gastroenterology remains the most general of specialties, encompassing psychological, functional, inflammatory and infectious and neoplastic disorders. The last 30 years have seen a major revolution in the way that gastroenterological clinicians think and work, brought about largely by the ready ability to inspect visually, and to biopsy, the upper gastrointestinal tract, colon and terminal ileum. Nevertheless, the relative nonspecificity of gastroenterological symptomatology, the relative inaccessibility of the small intestine (5–6 m in length) and the desire to define simple serological tests continues to provide a major role for laboratory assessments to detect and to assess gastrointestinal disease.
It is convenient, therefore, to assess what the straightforward first-line techniques of clinical gastroenterology can achieve, before considering the role of laboratory assessments. With respect to oesophageal disease, clinical history taking can localize disease in most cases, or at least to the oesophago-gastro-duodenal complex. With suggestive symptoms (reflux symptoms of acid heartburn, dysphagia), most clinicians will rapidly proceed to one of two approaches, both anatomical – endoscopy or radiology – to define the presence or absence of ulceration, inflammation, neoplasia or fibrotic stricture. Similarly, if the patient complains of clearly acid-related gastroduodenal symptoms, there will be rapid recourse to endoscopy.
This approach to ‘acid-related dyspepsia’ will be increasingly complemented with, or replaced by, seeking to identify the presence or absence of infection with Helicobacter pylori, the association of which with duodenal and gastric ulceration, but not with reflux oesophagitis, has become increasingly stressed in recent years.

Examination of sediment samples from oligo-and dystrophic ponds, lakes and streams in Papua New Guinea, Australia and New Zealand revealed a hitherto unknown diversity of the diatom genus Actinella Lewis. Six new species are proposed, viz. Actinella aotearoaia sp. nov., A. giluwensis sp. nov., A indistincta sp. nov., A. muylaertii sp. nov., A. parva sp. nov. and A. pulchella sp. nov. All species are heteropolar, both in girdle and valve view. Novel information on the genus Actinella includes the observations of two ribbon-shaped, valve-appressed plastids in A. aotearoaia and A. pulchella, and the presence of long mucilage stalks in A. aotearoaia. It is argued that, despite recent proposals to reduce the genera Actinella and Desmogonium Ehrenberg to the rank of subgenera of Eunotia, they should be kept separate until the taxonomic significance of their distinctive morphological features (such as heteropolarity) is fully assessed. The new species appear to be endemic to Australasia and have distinct biogeographies within this region. Except for A. aotearoaia, all species are present in Tasmania; A. indistincta and A. pulchella have also been found in New Zealand (Stewart Island). A. aotearoaia is common in several localities in New Zealand but was also found near Sydney on the Australian mainland. Actinella giluwensis has only been observed in material from Papua New Guinea. The record of A. punctata for the latter country constitutes the first confirmed record for this species outside North America and Europe. The discovery of the new Actinella species again confirms the importance of the Australasian region as a major centre of microalgal biodiversity and endemism.

An experiment was carried out from August to early November 1994 to examine differences in diet selection, herbage intake, grazing behaviour and animal performance between weaned lambs rotationally grazing swards of annual ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum)/white clover (Trifolium repens) and Yorkshire fog (Holcus lanatus)/T. repens with or without Lotus corniculatus. There were four replicate groups of six lambs per treatment. The effects of condensed tannins (CT) on lamb production were assessed by twice-daily oral administration of 10g polyethylene glycol (PEG; molecular weight 4000) to half the lambs on each sward. The Lotus content of all swards was very low, and results are presented here for main sward comparisons meaned over lotus treatments. Overall mean estimates of pre-grazing herbage mass and sward surface height for the annual ryegrass and Yorkshire fog swards respectively, were 5820 v. 4360±190 kgDM/ha (P<0·001) and 29 v. 21±0·6cm (P<0·001). The coefficient of organic matter digestibility (OMD) of the diet selected and herbage intake were higher on Yorkshire fog than on annual ryegrass (0·78 v. 0·74 ± 0·080g/kg; P<0·05, and 1070 v. 860±57g OM per lamb per day, P<0·05 respectively), reflecting the higher content in the diet of grass green leaf (980 v. 930g/kg±14g/kg, P<0·05) and the lower content of dead material (80 v. 110±15g/kg, P<0·08). Lambs grazing on Yorkshire fog swards had higher clean wool growth rate (1470 v. 1280±30mg/cm per day, P<0·01) and greater fibre diameter (31 v. 29±0·2μ, P<0·001), greater liveweight gain (152 v. 108±5·5g/day, P<0·001), final weight (42 v. 38±0·5kg, P<0·001), carcass weight gain (89 v. 69±2·5g/day, P<0·001), carcass weight (19 v. 17±0·3kg, P<0·001) and soft tissue thickness (GR value 11 v. 8±0·5mm, P<0·01), and lower faecal egg counts (FEC; square root transferred values 9·2 v. 11·0±0·4 eggs/g fresh faeces, P<0·01) than lambs grazing annual ryegrass swards. Similar dietary concentrations of condensed tannins (CT) between Yorkshire fog and annual ryegrass swards (4·2 v. 3·7 DM±0·2g/kg, P<0·08) increased clean wool growth (1440 v. 1310±32 mg/cm per day, P<0·05), fibre diameter (30·7 v. 29·5±0·21μ, P<0·01) and liveweight gain (141 v. 120±4·3g per lamb per day, P<0·01), although differences in carcass weight (17·9 v. 18·2±0·3kg) and FEC transformed values (9·6 v. 11·0±0·6 eggs/g fresh faeces) were not significant. The effects of CT on animal performance were greater in Yorkshire fog swards. CT had no significant effects on diet selection, herbage intake and grazing behaviour patterns.

Summary
Introduction
Fundamental to the cascade hypothesis are the effects that fish populations can exert on species composition, biomass and productivity at other trophic levels. These may be direct or indirect (nonlethal) effects. Direct effects such as prey consumption, and indirect effects such as those influencing behavior (avoidance of predators) have been widely documented at the population level (e.g. Stroud & Clepper, 1979; Werner et al., 1983) and the indirect effects expressed at the community and ecosystem levels such as those reviewed in Kerfoot & Sih (1987) & Northcote (1988). Indirect effects pertinent in the case of our studies would include behavioral responses, such as migration from or selection of specific refugia from predation (e.g. diel vertical migration of zooplankton and onshore–offshore migration of small fishes), that result in changes in foraging patterns of prey species (Carpenter et al., 1987; He & Kitchell, 1990; He & Wright, 1992; Chapter 5). Another category of effects includes changes in nutrient flux due to shifts in the behavioral or structural properties of the fish populations (Carpenter et al., 1992b).
Fish in our study lakes (Fig. 4.1) are common to the Great Lakes region, but some are near the limits of their geographic distributions. Largemouth bass and golden shiner are at the northern limits, while finescale and northern redbelly dace are near the southern limits (Scott & Crossman, 1973; Becker, 1983). Adult largemouth bass and rainbow trout can be keystone piscivores (Keast, 1985; Carpenter et al., 1985, 1987) with an ability to limit the abundance of forage fish.

Summary
Introduction
Understanding the impacts of fish predation on lower trophic levels is a generally important goal (Wootton, 1990). In the special case of our studies, fishes are the reagents of whole-lake experiments. Because many fishes are opportunistic predators capable of complex behavior (Chapters 4 and 5; Hodgson & Kitchell, 1987), manipulation of fish populations may change predation pressure on lower trophic levels in unexpected ways. Therefore, it was essential to measure rates of predation on key food web components during the course of our experiments.
In piscivore-dominated systems, some species of planktivorous fishes may not persist or may be maintained at very low population densities (Tonn & Magnuson, 1982). Juvenile fishes are typically planktivorous and may be very abundant after hatching. Although a cohort of juveniles may be dramatically reduced owing to intense, continuous predation by adult piscivores, their effect as predators of zooplankton may be intense for very short periods. The prospect for a pulse of zooplanktivory followed by a pulse of piscivory heightened our interest in providing quantitative measures of intensity and duration of such short-term dynamics in predator–prey interactions revolving around fishes.
Habitat heterogeneity and habitat selection also influence predator–prey interactions (Werner & Gilliam, 1984). The relatively simple habitats in our study lakes provide only a modest amount of refuge where prey fishes may escape piscivores. Lack of refugia in Peter Lake explains the quick disappearance of the minnows introduced in 1985 and the rapid decline of rainbow trout in 1989 (Chapter 4).

Silicon implanted with arsenic or boron has been annealed with a 100kW argon arc lamp turned on for a few seconds until the wafer temperature was in the 850–1250°C temperature range. The differences in defect behavior between such rapid annealing and furnace annealing is pointed out, and the dopant diffusion is measured. Aside from an initial movement of the boron atoms left in interstitial positions after the implant, diffusion of the boron and arsenic is consistent with standard diffusion models.

Twenty-four Hereford × Friesian cows (HF) and 24 Blue-Grey (Whitebred Shorthorn × Galloway) cows (BG) were housed in individual stalls. For the last 12 weeks of pregnancy they were fed hay to supply 75% of estimated maternal maintenance energy requirements. From calving (11 February to 9 April) until turning out to graze on 15 May they were given hay for maintenance, and a concentrate sufficient for either 2·25 kg (L) or 9·0 kg (H) milk per day, balanced within genotype. From 15 May until the end of the experiment on 7 September the cows and calves grazed as a single herd in a paddock grazing system, at a controlled daily herbage allowance of 50 g dry matter, measured to ground level, per kg total weight of cows and calves.
Cows on Treatment L lost more weight between calving and turnout than those on Treatment H, gave less milk, and their calves grew more slowly and were lighter at turn-out. Milk yields increased substantially after turn-out. Subsequently, milk yields and calf growth rates, and herbage intakes by the cows, did not differ significantly, although all were marginally higher for animals previously on Treatment L. Final calf weights, cow weights and cow body condition scores did not differ significantly.
Calves from HF cows were heavier at all stages than calves from BG cows. HF cows were heavier at calving than BG cows, gave more milk (though the difference was not significant) and lost more weight in early lactation. Final live weights and condition scores did not differ significantly.
The limited evidence suggested that conception to artificial insemination following oestrus synchronization was not affected by plane of nutrition in early lactation.

A solution of ammonium salts of a mixture of short-chain fatty acids (mainly acetic acid) was added to the sole source of drinking water of 10 lactating Jersey cows. There was considerable variation in the concentration of salts tolerated without depression in water intake. Some animals refused solution offered at a concentration of 0·5% (w/w) whereas one animal accepted solution at a concentration of 8% (w/w) and had a mean daily intake of salts equivalent to 836 g acetic acid.
2. Adjustment of the pH of the drinking solution to 6·5–7·5 increased the tolerance to the salts solution of animals which showed a low tolerance to the unadjusted solution. A mean daily intake equivalent to 480 g acetic acid was achieved without a significant depression of water intake. Replacement of 50 % of the ammonium ions by calcium increased the intake of salts by some cows but two out of eight refused the solution at a concentration of 0·5% (w/w).
3. The addition of saccharine, vanilla or aniseed to a solution of the ammonium salts gave little or no improvement in acetate intake but sodium cyclamate, ethyl acetate or molasses reduced the variability between animals in their tolerance to the solution and increased the mean intake of salts. With an addition of molasses, which gave the most marked response, there was a mean daily intake of salts equivalent to 495±26 g acetic acid.

Three techniques have been used to determine what clay mineral surfaces are involved in the selective bonding of Co: (a) polyphosphate ions were used to block edge surfaces of montmorillonite and vermiculite from Co, (b) collapse of the interlamellar spaces with potassium saturation was used to block internal basal surfaces of vermiculite from Co, and (c) autoradiographs were prepared of vermiculite and mica particles that had reacted with Co58. In each case Co in low concentration was allowed to combine with the mineral in the presence of high concentrations of CaCl2.
The preliminary sorption of polyphosphate ions had no appreciable effect on the sorption of Co by the minerals studied, indicating that the edge surfaces were not likely to be involved in the Co reaction. The blocking of internal basal areas had only a very slight effect suggesting that these surfaces were involved in the sorption of Co, but only to a limited extent. Autoradiographs of naturally occurring vermiculite particles revealed a somewhat uneven distribution of Co over the planar surface of the particles. Removal of the outer layers of the crystals, either before or after the material had combined with Co but before autoradiography, resulted in a concentration of the metal along edges and cracks.
Apparently the external basal surfaces are principally involved in the specific sorption of Co by layer silicates. It is suggested that chemical weathering and physical abrasion of the surfaces introduce defect structures which favor the chemical bonding of heavy metals.

The sorption of Co and Zn by layer silicates was studied in dilute mineral suspensions containing, in most cases, about 10-6 M Co or Zn. Electrostatic adsorption was eliminated by the presence of 0.1 N CaCl2. Co and Zn were determined by a radioisotopie technique.
Detailed studies on montmorillonite and to a lesser extent vermiculite, muscovite and biotite revealed the presence of at least two forms of specifically sorbed Co, one of which was exchangeable by certain ions such as Cu, Ni, Zn, Fe, Mn or more Co and the other, occurring in much smaller amounts, was not exchangeable by these cations. The latter form is considered to result from lattice penetration; the former is associated with surface groups. These forms may be separated quantitatively by several desorption procedures including successive extractions with dilute acetic acid.
The total amount and relative proportion of these forms of sorbed Co and Zn depend on the pH of the system, time of reaction, mineral species used, and amount of Co or Zn added. Equilibrium is not readily attained but tends to approach a slow steady state after several days. Isotherms indicate a variation in bonding energy with surface coverage. The sorption of Co and Zn from dilute solutions by any mineral is related to its stability.
These studies, considered in conjunction with published data, suggest that a common mechanism may be involved in the specific sorption of many heavy metal cations by many minerals.
