Abstract
Marine spatial planning (MSP) seeks to reduce conflicts and environmental impacts, and promote sustainable use of marine ecosystems. Existing MSP approaches have successfully determined how to achieve target levels of ocean area for particular uses while minimizing costs and impacts, but they do not provide a framework that derives analytical solutions in order to co-ordinate siting of multiple uses while balancing the effects of planning on each sector in the system. We develop such a framework for guiding offshore aquaculture (bivalve, finfish, and kelp farming) development in relation to existing sectors and environmental concerns (wild-capture fisheries, viewshed quality, benthic pollution, and disease spread) in California, USA. We identify > 250,000 MSP solutions that generate significant seafood supply and billions of dollars in revenue with minimal impacts (often < 1%) on existing sectors and the environment. We filter solutions to identify candidate locations for high-value, low-impact aquaculture development. Finally, we confirm the expectation of substantial value of our framework over conventional planning focused on maximizing individual objectives. Marine spatial planning is used to co-ordinate multiple ocean uses, and is frequently informed by tradeoffs and composite metrics. Here, Lester et al. introduce an approach that plans for multiple uses simultaneously whilst balancing individual objectives, using a case study of aquaculture development in California.

Abstract
Immunologic tolerance to solid organ and islet cell grafts has been achieved in various rodent models by using antibodies directed at CD45RB and Tim-1. We have shown that this form of tolerance depends on regulatory B cells (Bregs). To elucidate further the mechanism by which Bregs induce tolerance, we investigated the requirement of natural killer (NK) and NKT cells in this model. To do so, hyperglycemic B6, μMT, Beige, or CD1d-/- mice received BALB/c islet grafts and treatment with the tolerance-inducing regimen consisting of anti-CD45RB and anti-TIM1. B6 mice depleted of both NK and NKT cells by anti-NK1.1 antibody and mice deficient in NK activity (Beige) did not develop tolerance after dual-antibody treatment. In contrast, transplant tolerance induction was successful in CD1d-/- recipients (deficient in NKT cells), indicating that NK, but not NKT, cells are essential in B cell-dependent tolerance. In addition, reconstitution of Beige host with NK cells restored the ability to induce transplant tolerance with dual-antibody treatment. Transfer of tolerance by B cells from tolerant mice was also dependent on host Nk1.1+ cells. In conclusion, these results show that regulatory function of B cells is dependent on NK cells in this model of transplantation tolerance.

Abstract
The Mouse Genome Database (MGD) is one component of the Mouse Genome Informatics (MGI) system (http://www.informatics.jax.org), a community database resource for the laboratory mouse. MGD strives to provide a comprehensive knowledgebase about the mouse with experiments and data annotated from both literature and online sources. MGD curates and presents consensus and experimental data representations of genetic, genotype (sequence) and phenotype information including highly detailed reports about genes and gene products. Primary foci of integration are through representations of relationships between genes, sequences and phenotypes. MGD collaborates with other bioinformatics groups to curate a definitive set of information about the laboratory mouse and to build and implement the data and semantic standards that are essential for comparative genome analysis. Recent developments in MGD discussed here include an extensive integration of the mouse sequence data and substantial revisions in the presentation, query and visualization of sequence data.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our purpose was to evaluate the hemodynamic and endocrine responses to elevations of atrial pressure in fetal sheep. STUDY DESIGN By use of a randomized block design, 10 ovine fetuses underwent pulmonary artery constriction proximal to the ductus arteriosus with and without propranolol pretreatment. RESULTS Atrial pressure doubled (p < 0.05), whereas mean arterial pressure remained unchanged (p > 0.05), in response to pulmonary artery constriction in both groups. Atrial natriuretic peptide tripled (p < 0.01), arginine vasopressin tripled (p < 0.05), and plasma renin activity doubled (p < 0.05) in both the constriction and constriction plus propranolol groups. No changes in fetal hematocrit values were demonstrated in any group. CONCLUSIONS The fetal sheep responds to increased atrial pressure with not only increased levels of atrial natriuretic peptide but also with arginine vasopressin and plasma renin activity over time. These changes occur in spite of increases in both atrial pressure and atrial natriuretic peptide. We speculate that the fetal heart may participate in redistribution of cardiac output by releasing atrial natriuretic peptide and augmenting secretion of arginine vasopressin and plasma renin activity.

Abstract
A combination of satellite imagery, shipboard profiles, drifter tracks, and moored current observations reveals that an anticyclonic eddy off the coast of northern California transported plumes of suspended sediments from the continental shelf into the deep ocean. The horizontal scale of the eddy was about 90 kilometers, and the eddy remained over the continental shelf and slope for about 2 months during the summer of 1988. The total mass of sediments transported by the eddy was of order 105 metric tons. Mesoscale eddies are recurrent features in this region and occur frequently in eastern boundary currents. These results provide direct evidence that eddies export sediments from continental shelves.

Abstract
The wingless first instars of the coccid Pulvinariella mesembryanthemi exhibit active aerial dispersal behavior by standing on their hind legs. This behavior is an age-specific response to the ambient wind velocity by which the instars are able to capitalize on air velocity gradients in the thin boundary layer surrounding the host plant substrate. This dispersal tactic may be a convergent evolutionary strategy for many minute terrestrial arthropods.

Abstract
High specific activity [11C] Carboxyl-labeled 1-aminocyclopentane-carboxylic acid ([11C] ACPC) was tested as a tumor-scanning agent in thirty-eight patients. This artificial amino acid clears the blood to a level of less than 12% within 45 min; thus, imaging is possible within the useful life of C-11. [11C] ACPC can be produced in amounts adequate for clinical scanning. Doses between 12 and 45 mCi were given by i.v. injection, and scans obtained only in the single-photon mode gave clinical information on the sites of tumors. There was no evidence of any toxic effects from [11C] ACPC, and the radiation doses as extrapolated from animal data are approximately 0.01 rad per mCi for the whole body and less than 0.06 rad per mCi for the pancreas. In all but five of the 38 patients [11C] ACPC scans were compared with those obtained with Ga-67 citrate. There were 19 positive [11C] ACPC scans and 24 positive Ga-67 scans. The results indicate that [11C] ACPC is likely to be of diagnostic value for cancer patients if used in conjunction with positron tomography instrumentation.
