It will be less useful for those working on oceanic lithosphere, hydrocarbon geology or mineralization processes.
However, hydrocarbon (toluene) emissions were more than 250% higher than total hydrocarbon emissions from other sources on station.
It was postulated that the movement of water through hydrocarbon-contaminated sediments would result in the dispersal of hydrocarbon-contaminated meltwater downhill towards the sea.
Issues and problems relating to fishing, hydrocarbon exploration, tourism and communications clearly spill over national borders (regardless of whether those borders are actually contested).
No qualitative differences in the hydrocarbon profiles was observed with regard to gender though preliminary results showed that quantitative differences were clearly present.
Parasites, if they possess quantities of epicuticular hydrocarbons near the threshold level necessary to be perceived by hosts, could be more tolerated by hosts.
Table 1 shows the hydrocarbon quantities given as the mean nanograms per fly of each compound or mixture from the two peaks of interest.
There is a significant reduction in hydrocarbon concentrations in sediments as the distance from the assumed hydrocarbon sources (contaminated sites located uphill) increases.
