ISSN: 1572-946XSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: PhysicsNotes: Abstract On the basis of exact computations of the extinction efficiencies of spheroidal absorbing particles, numerical calculations of the extinction curves have been made for a distribution of particle sizes. The results are presented and compared with the observed interstellar extinction. For the sake of comparison, results for the nonabsorbing particles are also given.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1572-946XSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: PhysicsNotes: Abstract Volume extinction factorsV c have been evaluated for spherical grains at several refractive indices (m=1.6,m=1.5,m=1.33,m=1,16,m=1.1). From these results it is found that grains with higher-refractive index are more efficient for visual extinction than grains with low-refractive index.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1573-5117Keywords: lethal temperature ; embryonic development ; ovipositionSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: BiologyNotes: Abstract The present study includes the effect of temperature on the survival of young and adult snails, embryonic development, embryonic growth and egg laying of Indoplanorbis exustus. In Indoplanorbis exustus the bottom lethal temperature was 7.0°C and 7.5°C for young and adults respectively. while the upper lethal temperature was 34.0°C and 32.0°C for young and adult snails respectively. Between the temperatures 12.5°C and 36.5°C the embryonic development was accelerated and the incubation period was shortened. The growth of embryos was found to be faster at 25.0°C. The optimum temperature for egg laying was observed at 25.0°C.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1573-5117Keywords: Salt concentrations ; lethal concentration ; osmoregulation ; freshwater snailsSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: BiologyNotes: Abstract A study was made on I. exustus to observe the survival and osmotic regulation following transfer of snails from freshwater to different salt concentrations. The lethal salinity was found at 0.5% salt concentration. It was observed that there was loss of chloride ions in distilled water whereas the snails gained chloride in different salt concentrations. The gain of chloride ions was found to increase with increasing salt concentration. The body weight changes in snails showed that there was increase in weight when placed in distilled water. In tapwater they showed little fluctuation, whereas weights decreased with increasing concentration of salt, thus suggesting that in hypotonic media the snails could regulate their water content, but in hypertonic media they lost considerable weight due to loss of water.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1573-5117Keywords: egg mass ; hatching process ; permeability of capsular membraneSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: BiologyNotes: Abstract The freshwater snail Indoplanorbis exustus laid its eggs in triple layers in a gelatinous, ribbon shaped matrix. Hatching was by mechanical means. The capsular membrane of the embryos was more permeable to water than to other organic and inorganic ions.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1573-5117Keywords: Substratum ; preference ; distribution of snailsSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: BiologyNotes: Abstract Laboratory experiments were conducted to ascertain the substratum preferendum of Viviparus bengalensis and Melania scabra. When the food (Spirogyra) was offered both on stones and sand, the average distribution of V. bengalensis and M. scabra was 19% and 10% on stone and 52% and 80% on sand respectively. In the absence of food from both stone and sand and also when sand alone was baited, both snails flocked principally towards sand. When stone alone was provided with food, V. bengalensis and M. scabra displayed 16% and 15% distribution on stone and 49% and 45% on sand respectively. Ecological significance of these results is discussed.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1573-0794Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: GeosciencesPhysicsNotes: Abstract During the occultation of a star by the inner coma region of a comet, specific forward-scattering effects could be observable if submillimeter size particles contribute significantly to the net extinction of star light. In this paper we investigate the possibility of detecting the signature of such particles by observing the dependence of extinction on the angular size of the acceptance aperture used at the focal plane of the telescope. Calculations based on a simple model assuming spherically-symmetric and homogeneous coma are presented.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1572-946XSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: PhysicsNotes: Abstract Using the recently available exact computations of the scattering efficiencies of spheroidal particles numerical calculations of the extinction and polarization curves have been made for a distribution of particle sizes, shapes and orientations. The results are presented and compared with the observed interstellar extinction and polarization. Possible models for interstellar dust with nonspherical grains have been discussed.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1573-5117Keywords: Calcium content ; shell regenerationSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: BiologyNotes: Abstract A piece of shell was removed from Indoplanorbis exustus without injuring the mantle. Calcium was estimated from hepatopancreas, foot, mantle and shell at different intervals. It was observed that the calcium content of the shell was directly proportional to that in the mantle. The calcium content in the hepatopancreas showed an increase within 6 hours of injury and then decreased upto 144 hours. The foot showed an increase in calcium in the first 6 hours and reached a maximum after 96 hours after injury. The calcium, in the mantle also increased within 6 hours after injury, which increase exceeded that from the foot.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1573-5117Keywords: Hypertonic saline ; warm stress ; neurosecretory cell B ; neurosecretory material ; nuclear diameterSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: BiologyNotes: Abstract Changes in the neurosecretory cell cytology of I. exustus subjected to hypertonic saline (0.1 ml of 1.5%/snail) loading and thermal stress (35°C) for two hours, have been investigated. Of the two types of neurosecretory cells A and B that are present in the central nervous system (CNS) of I. exustus, striking changes were evident only in B cells. After both treatments, there was about 33% decline in NSM (Neurosecretory material) intensity. However, the nuclear diameter of B cells was significantly (P 〈 0.001) increased in the snails administrated with hypertonic saline unlike in those exposed to 35°C wherein significant (P 〈 0.005) decline was evident. The adaptive significance of the neuroendocrine system of I exustus is discussed in relation to hydrothermal stress.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1434-4483Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: GeosciencesPhysicsNotes: Summary Monsoon is a complex dynamical system. Interannual and intraseasonal fluctuations have been studied in the regional and global perspective. Southern Hemispheric Equatorial Trough and its activity during the northern summer appears inversely related to the rainfall activity over the Indian sub-continent in general and Central India in particular. During typical active SHET epochs the rainfall activity becomes deficient in the Central parts of the country. The activity of the SHET is fluctuating in nature. Its duration is prolonged and intensity is increased during the years of major failure.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL:
