Black Color

Poison dart frogs provide classic examples of warning signals: potent toxins signaled by distinctive, conspicuous coloration. We show that, counterintuitively, the bright yellow and blue-black color of Dendrobates tinctorius (Dendrobatidae) also provides camouflage. Through computational modeling of predator vision, and a screen-based detection experiment presenting frogs at different spatial resolutions, we demonstrate that at close range the frog is highly detectable, but from a distance the colors blend together, forming effective camouflage. This result was corroborated with an in situ experiment, which found survival to be background-dependent, a feature more associated with camouflage than aposematism. Our results suggest that in D. tinctorius the distribution of pattern elements, and the particular colors expressed, act as a highly salient close range aposematic signal, while simultaneously minimizing detectability to distant observers.

Tunnel Safety

Ventilation system of road tunnel is one of the most important parts of the tunnel safety equipment, especially in view of the emergency event in the tunnel with fire. Last year we presented the testing and the first in situ measurements of our project entitled “Models of formation and spread of fire to increase safety of road tunnels”. With regard to our project schedule we performed also the second in situ experiment. Other part of this paper deals with computer simulations of fires of a selected Slovak road tunnel.

Loss Rates

For an in situ experiment conducted in Shiozu Bay, Lake Biwa, Japan, primary productivity estimates from liquid scintillation radioactivity counts of wet algae were generally higher than those from Geiger–Müller radioactivity counts of desiccated algae. Values at 0 m were similar, the G–M estimate at 0.5 m was 10% higher, but from 3 to 13 m the liquid scintillation values ranged from 11 to 33% higher than G–M estimates. The 20-m estimates were low and similar. Differences were caused primarily by 14C losses during desiccation prior to G–M counting. Increasing loss rates between 0.5 and 3.0 m may have been caused by decreasing light intensity. On the basis of surface area, the estimate from liquid scintillation data was 27% greater than that obtained from G–M data.
