Aging, Emotion, Attention, and Binding in the Taboo Stroop Task: Data and Theories
How does aging impact relations between emotion, memory, and attention? To address this question, young and older adults named the font colors of taboo and neutral words, some of which recurred in the same font color or screen location throughout two color-naming experiments. The results indicated longer color-naming response times (RTs) for taboo than neutral base-words (taboo Stroop interference); better incidental recognition of colors and loc…

Oil in the Beaufort and Mediterranean Seas
Spillage of oil into the Beaufort Sea in the course of exploration and exploitation of offshore resources may occur at an estimated rate of 20 milligrams per square metre per year, or about one-fifth the rate of spillage into the Mediterranean Sea. Overall rates of degradation and dispersion of spilled oil under the conditions prevailing in the Beaufort Sea are however likely to be significantly slower than under the conditions in the Mediterrane…
The Behaviour of Crude Oil Spilled on Snow
Field and laboratory studies of the behavior of isothermal and hot oil spills on snow are described. Alberta crude oil spilled at 0° C is readily absorbed by snow and contaminates an area of about 0.01 square metres per litre. A hot oil spill melts a channel in the snow and flows along the ground under the snow contaminating an area of about 0.024 square metres per litre. There may be considerable spreading of the oil during thaw. The flow regime…
Snow Cover and Ground Temperatures, Garry Island, N.W.T
Field measurements of the influence of snow on ground temperatures, at a depth of 90 cm., were carried out during 1968-73 at Garry Island, N.W.T. The results show that the ameliorating effect of snow can be expressed by a regression equation. The side slopes tend to have the highest mean annual temperatures; the flats the lowest; and the ridges intermediate. At Garry Island, where permafrost is thick, variations in snow cover are probably not ref…
Access to Meighen Island, N.W.T
Discusses the problem of access by light aircraft to the Polar Continental Shelf Project's icecap station on Meighen from Isachsen on Ellef Ringnes Island. Data are tabulated to show the incidence of poor visibility and other hazards at Meighen Island, and a calculation of probability indices for successful round-trip flights in different months and conditions is attempted. Warning is given that these low figures indicate that planning of work on…
The Mackay Aerial Survey Expedition, Central Australia, May-June 1930
IN writing a report of the Mackay Aerial Survey Expedition in Central Australia, May-June 1930, there is little to be said, since the reconnaissance map compiled by Commander H. Bennett with aerial photographs that accompany it' show at a glance the object of the expedition and work accomplished. Before the start of the expedition it was necessary to make arrangements to have an aerodrome cleared at the proposed base at Ehrenberg Range, and on Ap…
An Expedition in Arnhem Land in 1928
throughout the rest of the day. On these lakes and their connecting streams water was beginning to show on top of the ice, a fact which enabled us to dispense almost entirely with the use of fuel. A short stop was made at each of two native camps which were encountered along our trail. The natives reported themselves as three days out from the trading post, but as they move very leisurely this did not necessarily mean that it was any great distan…
