Of the characters used for stock differentiation in North Sea herring, fecundity studies have proved confusing to general picture of separation into three major stocks, Bank, Downs and Buchan. By combining counts with length, a index has resulted which clearly discriminates between Bank fish. The been separate these two stocks mixed Shields fishery. proportions determined by this method compared well those derived from other methods. fecundity/length relationship obtained here is...
Since 1980 there has been a sudden recovery of recruitment to the central and southern North Sea herring stocks (Bank Downs, respectively). In contrast, northern continued at low level spawning stock biomass even declined since 1979. These events underline independence substocks in Sea, each which reacted differently cessation directed fishery 1977. A precondition reopening was that severely depleted should have recovered 800 000 t, underlying assumption being all components would respond...
A tentative method for separating North Sea herring stocks is described. The total numbers of white skeletal muscle fibres were counted in transverse section at a point 35% the length from tail. Counts two successive years showed no significant difference particular stocks. In five mean fibre counts 1969 and 1970 combined as follows: Bank, 64409; Shetland, 51472; Downs, 40584; Blackwater, 33934 Buchan, 44979. provides confirmatory evidence homogeneity spawning

In conventional photoacoustic setups, the signal results from stimulation of a sample placed in cell by light modulated at selected frequency. The can be amplified resonance cell. For this purpose, different types acoustic resonators are used. Acoustic passive, frequency selective elements. An resonator used offers opportunity to design system working on basis similar that self-oscillating generator. geometrical dimensions an resonator, and temperature, composition, concentration substances...

The paper discusses two phenomena called tremor, which result in incorrect operation of the oscilloscope trigger circuits. Both them change delays introduced by circuit, resulting horizontal shifts traces on screen, but origins are different. kinds tremors circuits produce images often similar to those from noise jitter. Hence, limited knowledge tremor may be a source improper interpretation measurements. On other hand can considered as different approach problem flip-flop circuit's metastability.

Modem research trends require observation of fainter and astronomical objects on large areas the sky. This implies usage systems with high temporal optical resolution computer based data acquisition processing. Therefore Charge Coupled Devices became so popular. They offer quick picture conversion much better quality than film technologies. work is theoretical practical study CCD system. The system was optimized for "Pi Sky" project. But it can be adapted to another professional researches....
The paper illustrates an essential influence of skin effect on results time-domain reflectometry technique applied to diagnosis DSL transmission line. Skin (frequency-dependent ohmic losses dependent geometry and material the wire) appeared be a phenomenon mainly responsible for degradation. significantly reduces possibilities wide-band digital data along telephone lines. It also limits TDR measurement system resolution accuracy, which is shown in numerous computer simulation results.
The paper presents a construction of digitally controlled, low cost, time domain relectometry unit designated for evaluation quality transmission lines. "radar-like" TDR technique allows detecting lines discontinuities, including shorts, open circuits, parasitic bridges etc. Described here was successfully tested proving its usefulness imperfections. does not contain GUI nor the utilities post processing measurement data, as they are left MASTER (controlling) system. Measurement results...
