Insights into the origin of the thermal springs of Bath and Bristol, England, from geophysical data
No full textThe thermal springs of Bath, England, produce 1.25 Ml day−1 of water at 46.5 °C. The spring at Hotwells, Bristol, England, 15 km to the west, is estimated to produce between 0.17 and 0.39 Ml day−1 of water at a temperature between 22.8 and 24.4 °C. Published research suggests that the waters originate in the Mendip Hills, SW of Bath and Bristol, and are heated by geothermal energy within the Carboniferous Limestone basin (‘The Mendips Model’). The exact paths of the waters to the springs have not been established. We interpreted seismic reflection data for the urban district of Bath and for the Radstock Basin to the south of Bath. By combining the geophysical interpretations with published geological data we have established a potential route through the Carboniferous Limestone reaching sufficient depths for the waters to attain the required temperatures. We imaged a steeply dipping, fractured region of Carboniferous Limestone coincident with the valley of the River Avon and propose that this is the feature by which the thermal waters can rise rapidly to the surface, providing an explanation for the existence of these unique springs. We have incorporated these new aspects of the Mendip Model into the ‘Mendip–Avon Fracture Zone Model
Universal neonatal hearing screening moving from evidence to practice
No full textRecent technological advances have made feasible universal newborn hearing screening and therefore early detection of permanent childhood hearing impairment. Over the past three years, new information has been published on whether early intervention is beneficial, the possibility of harm arising from newborn screening, and its cost. Dramatic progress has been made in the large scale implementation of universal screening in many parts of the western world

Dichanthium panchganiense Blatt. & McCann
No full text<i>Dichanthium panchganiense</i> Blatt. & McCann (Blatter & McCann 1927: 357). (Fig. 4). <p> <b>Lectotype</b> (designated here):— INDIA. Maharashtra: Panchgani village and tableland, Nov. 1925, <i>C. McCann s. n.</i> [Acc. 89322 (BLAT!)].</p> <p> <b>Note</b>:— Blatter & McCann (1927) described two species, viz. <i>D. panchganiense</i> and <i>D. mccannii</i> based on collections of McCann (in the year 1925) from Panchgani (Satara, Maharashtra). Bor (1960) stated that ‘‘the type of <i>D. mccannii</i> is not in the Blatter Herbarium, St. Xavier’s College, Bombay, and there is no material of the species at Kew”. According to Deshpande (1984) type of <i>D. mccannii</i> and <i>D. panchganiense</i> was housed at BLAT. Attempts were made to locate the type specimens at BLAT, we found two sheets of <i>D. mccannii</i> (Acc. 89321) and <i>D. panchganiense</i> (Acc. 89322) made by McCann, and can serve as an original material. Both the specimens are selected here as lectotypes following Art. 9.3 of ICN.</p>Published as part of <i>Shaikh, Tarbej, Ghalme, Raghunath & Potdar, Girish, 2022, Typifications in the genus Dichanthium (Andropogoneae: Poaceae), pp. 103-110 in Phytotaxa 530 (1)</i> on page 109, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.530.1.9, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/5823993">http://zenodo.org/record/5823993</a>
