Padilla Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve. Taylor's Sea Slug, Phyllaplysia taylori, is common on blades of eelgrass (Zostera sp.) in low intertidal areas from Nanaimo, British Columbia to San Diego, California. The body is dorsoventrally flattened and from 25 to 45 cm long. Its color mimics Zostera, with a bright green base with brown-black and white spots.

Figure 17. Luksch disk, made by Joseph Luksch about 1880 and used in that year aboard the HERTA, the yacht of Prince John II of Liechstenstein. It was provided with five interchangeable 36-cm reflecting plates of different metals, some painted. Afterwards, Luksch used polished white iron disks and white painted disks of 45 cm diameter on the POLA. Credit: Sailing for Science - the NOAA Fleet Then and Now.

Figure 49. An Ekman bottom sampler for use in zoological sampling operations. This instrument was capable of acquiring a sample from a surface area covering 500 sq cm. This device was designed by Dr. Sven Ekman of Jonkoping, Sweden in 1910. This sampler was spring-loaded and snapped shut to acquire mud and silt. Although tested in a lake, it was equally useful in the sea. Credit: Sailing for Science - the NOAA Fleet Then and Now.

Figure 14. Negretti and Zambra thermometers, older models. These were reversing thermometers completely protected by an outer glass casing. This type of thermometer was manufactured from 1878 until 1912. The scales were graduate d in degrees and half-degree centigrade. Length of these thermometers was about 24 cm, diameter of reservoir about 1.1 cm, and diameter of tube about 1.3 cm. Credit: Sailing for Science - the NOAA Fleet Then and Now.

Figure 72. Pycnometers for the measurement of the density of sediments. According to Thoulet, the apparent density of a sediment is the weight per cm cubed of the dry sediment when compressed as much as possible. The true densit y is the relation of the weight of the sample relative to the weight of an equal volume of distilled water at 4C. Thoulet studied these sediment properties.

As long as there are no investors willing to put up the necessary funds for new ripping machines, the problem may be ameliorated via a reduction in the cost of transporting cars from scrap yards to rippers by pressing the cars before transporting them. This could be done using car crushers which make a 30 - 35 cm cube of the car's body. The problem there is that Poland also lacks these machines, even though they are much cheaper than rippers.

Danish

ved dybdedosismaalingerne valgtes en fokus-hud afstand - FHA - paa l00 cm, selv om voksne saedvanligvis ser ( hoejspaendingsdrevet ) fjernsym med stor skaerm fra en stoerre afstand (although adults usually watch high-voltage, for the depth dose measurements a target-skin distance of 1OO cm was chosen, large-screen sets from a greater distance), staalvaerksfolkene proever at styre fremstillingen af det stoebte staal saaledes,at gasudviklingen er netop stor nok til at forhindre,ar der findes gasblaerer mindre end 1 cm fra overfladen (the steelmakers thus try to control elaboration fabrication and teeming in such a way that the rimming action is enough to prevent blowholes becoming entrapped at less than 1 cm from the surface), maalingerne blev udfoert i et vand-fantom i l og 5 cm dybde, d.v.s. i middel-dybden for testikler og ovarier (measurements were made in water phantom at l and 5 cm, the average depths of the testes and ovaries), det viste sig, at dybdedosis i l cm dybde svarede til 75 % af eksponeringen (the depth dose at l cm was found to be 75 % of the exposure).

Dutch

voor de meting van dieptedoses is de afstand focus-huid op 1OO cm gesteld, hoewel volwassenen met hoge spanning werkende grootbeeldtelevisie gewoonlijk van grotere afstand zien (although adults usually watch high-voltage, for the depth dose measurements a target-skin distance of 1OO cm was chosen, large-screen sets from a greater distance), gemeten werd op l en 5 cm in een waterfantoom, d.w.z. op de gemiddelde diepte van testes en ovaria (measurements were made in water phantom at l and 5 cm, the average depths of the testes and ovaries), de staalfabrikanten proberen dus het vervaardigen van de smelt zodanig te beheersen,dat het gasblazen voldoende is om gasinsluitsels op minder dan 1 cm van de buitenzijde te vermijden (the steelmakers thus try to control elaboration fabrication and teeming in such a way that the rimming action is enough to prevent blowholes becoming entrapped at less than 1 cm from the surface), de dieptedosis op l cm bleek 75 % van de exposie te bedragen (the depth dose at l cm was found to be 75 % of the exposure).

pour mesurer les doses en profondeur, il a été retenu une distance foyer-peau de 1OO cm, bien que les téléspectateurs adultes se tiennent généralement à une plus grande distance des récepteurs à grand écran de haut voltage (for the depth dose measurements a target-skin distance of 1OO cm was chosen), les aciéristes s'efforcent donc de régler l'élaboration et la coulée de façon que l'effervescence soit suffisante pour empêcher l'emprisonnement des soufflures en deçà de 1 cm de profondeur (the steelmakers thus try to control elaboration fabrication and teeming in such a way that the rimming action is enough to prevent blowholes becoming entrapped at less than 1 cm from the surface), il est apparu que la dose en profondeur à l cm correspondait à 75 % de la dose à l'air libre (the depth dose at l cm was found to be 75 % of the exposure), des mesures ont été effectuées dans un fantome à eau à une distance de l à 5 cm, c'est-à-dire à la profondeur moyenne des testicules et des ovaires (measurements were made in water phantom at l and 5 cm).

para medição da dose em profundidade foi escolhida uma distância alvo-pele de 100 cm,embora em geral os adultos se encontrem a uma maior distância em relação aos grandes écrans de alta voltagem (although adults usually watch high-voltage, for the depth dose measurements a target-skin distance of 1OO cm was chosen, large-screen sets from a greater distance), os técnicos de aciaria esforçam-se portanto por regular a elaboração e o vazamento por forma que a efervescência seja suficiente para impedir o aprisionamento dos chochos aquém de 1 cm de profundidade (the steelmakers thus try to control elaboration fabrication and teeming in such a way that the rimming action is enough to prevent blowholes becoming entrapped at less than 1 cm from the surface), foi determinado que a dose a 1 cm de profundidade corresponde a 75 por cento da dose de exposição (the depth dose at l cm was found to be 75 % of the exposure), as medições foram efectuadas em espectro de água a 1 e 5 cm,ou seja,a profundidade média dos testículos e ovários (measurements were made in water phantom at l and 5 cm, the average depths of the testes and ovaries).
