The Columbia River basalts, which underlie a large portion of the Pacific Northwest of the United States of America, are being investigated as one of the candidate media for a nuclear waste repository. The Basalt Waste Isolation Project (BWIP) of Rockwell Hanford Operations (Rockwell) is conducting these investigations for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). Since the inception of the program in 1976, a number of studies have led to the selection of a reference repository location and the start of construction of an exploratory shaft.1-3

A species of Lecanora in the L. dispersa group, with a well-developed pale thallus and a granular epihymenium, resembling L. albescens , is found exclusively on shoreline rocks and appears to be new. It is described as Lecanora schofieldii  sp. nov., found mainly in the Pacific Northwest, but also rarely on the northeast coast. Its distinctions from similar species on shoreline rocks are given, together with a key for their identification. The first western record of L. xylophila from rocks is given.

Summary A swab technique was developed for sampling fish and fish processing equipment. Selection of the swab used was based on the uniformity of weight, amounts of water absorbed, and water-holding capacity of the material of the swab. Size of sampling area was based on the limitations of the swabs used to pick up the material from the surface. The technique is simple, convenient, relatively accurate in use, and inexpensive for nondestructive sampling of wet surfaces in the field or in the laboratory.

Om Grundtvigs sanges liv i Nordamerika[On the life of Grundtvig’s songs in North America]By Marianne StølenThe article discusses three important conditions for that rich life which Grundtvig’s songs have enjoyed among Danish-Americans in North America. Treated first is the songbook of Frederik Lange Grundtvig, Sangbog for det danske Folk i Amerika [Songbook for the Danish folk in America] (1888), commonly known as “the red one,” with focus upon F. L. Grundtvig’s selection of familiar and unfamiliar songs and hymns gathered from his father’s treasury of song and his reworking of some of these with regard to their relevance for use among the Danish immigrants. Next is described the production of songs among the migrants, especially the Danish pastors, with examples of the word-choice which reveals an assimilation of key conceptwords from Grundtvig’s writings along with readily recognisable echoes of lines from the Grundtvig classics. There follows a description of the Hymnal for Church and Home (1927) and the Danish-American A World of Song (1941), each of which in its way collaborated in building a bridge between successive generations of users. Particular attention is drawn to the translations contributed to the songbook by the Danish-American translator and pastor S. D. Rodholm, with use of examples from Grundtvig’s authorship.Finally a glimpse is offered into the role played today by Grundtvig’s songs in the song-repertoire of Danish-American conventions and among the present members of two singing groups in the Pacific Northwest.

Quantitative terpene analysis of the leaf oils of 433 wild Douglas-fir trees from 87 northwestern localities, 66 wind-pollinated progenies of 4 trees from Idaho, 100 trees from 5 localities represented in a provenance trial, and 76 trees from four full-sib families of F1 intervarietal crosses allowed assessment of biosynthetic pathways, geographic variation, and modes of inheritance. Hypothetical biosynthetic pathways, derived from the cooccurrence of terpenes implied that the variation in 17 monoterpenes could be represented by three or four biogenetic pathways. As a result, geographic variation between the coastal and Rocky Mountain varieties can be described by the relative percentages of β-pinene, the terpinene–sabinene group of terpenes, the camphene group, and perhaps limonene. An abrupt reduction in the production of the camphene group occurs in going from interior to coastal populations. Moreover, patterns of segregation within four full-sib intervarietal hybrid families suggested that production of high relative percentages of the camphene group was governed by a single dominant gene. The dominant allele is characteristic of the Rocky Mountain variety, but isolated occurrences were also found on dry sites in coastal British Columbia. The recessive allele occurs far into the range of the Rocky Mountain variety. The coastal variety is characterized by the synthesis of relatively large amounts of β-pinene and the terpinene–sabinene group and their mode of inheritance is quantitative. Although concentrations of these terpenes decline towards the Rocky Mountains, genes controlling high amounts occur in populations of Idaho and western Montana. The variation in β-pinene and terpenes of the terpinene–sabinene group does not appear to be clinal. Trees with 5–10% ocimene are predominant in eastern Oregon. This terpene was found only in less than 1% amounts in trees from the coastal region and Montana and was practically absent in a provenance from Arizona. Hence it may serve to differentiate Rocky Mountain populations.
