Hamont is a small town located on the north-eastern edge of the Belgian province of Limburg, on the national border with the Netherlands. It is situated about 30 km south of Eindhoven and 15 km west of Weert in the Netherlands. The town has about 13,500 inhabitants. According to Belemans, Kruijsen & Van Keymeulen (1998), the dialect of Hamont belongs to the West Limburg dialects (subclassification: Dommellands). Limburg dialects occupy a unique position among the Belgian and Dutch dialects in that their prosodic system has a lexical tone distinction, which is traditionally referred to as SLEEPTOON ‘dragging tone’ and STOOTTOON ‘push tone’. In line with recent conventions, stoottoon is referred to as Accent 1 and transcribed as superscript 1; sleeptoon is referred to as Accent 2 and is transcribed as superscript 2 (cf. Schmidt 1986).

Opening ParagraphIn this paper I shall present some data on the marriage and family organization of an Eastern Ijo town, and shall try to analyse changes in this organization against the background of broader social changes affecting the area.Okrika is the chief town of the Okrika section of the Ijo-speaking people of Nigeria. The Okrika dialect, with Kalahari and Bonny, falls into the North-Eastern group of dialects which are partially interintelligible with Brass-Nembe but not with the Central-Western dialects. The Ijo occupy the greater part of the Niger Delta. The Okrika section consists of eight towns and dependent villages on the extreme eastern edge of the Delta, where the saltwater creeks and mangrove swamps give place to the extensive dry ground of the mainland. Administratively, Okrika forms part of the Degema Province of the Eastern Region of Nigeria. With three other communities of the section, Okrika itself is sited on an island about half a mile long and a quarter broad.

46 oil samples were collected at the wellheads of different wells of a particular oil field and “oil fingerprinting” was performed by gas chromatographic analysis on LTM-MD-GC in order to understand the fluid connectivity of the reservoir within the field. This field located in the eastern edge of the Caspian Basin. According to the results of cluster analyzes, it was found that the studied samples of the north-eastern part of the oil field differ from those of the south-western part. Since the oil field has a massive reservoir height, all wells operate with minimum water-cut values, except for the production well. In this regard, the ionic composition of the water and the titration method were used to analyze the ionic composition of water, separated from the oil of producing well, two neighboring injection wells and block cluster pumping station of this field, to determine the ionic composition and identify differences and similarities of waters at the molecular level. According to the results of the analyzes, we came to the conclusion that all the studied formation water samples have common origin. The relatively high NaCl value in producing well water may be due to the high concentration of chloride in the oil.

The small bivalve Abra tennis (Montagu) (Bivalvia: Semelidae) reaches the north-eastern edge of its range in the Wadden Sea near the Dutch/German border. In the Wadden Sea it is restricted to a narrow intertidal zone close to the high-water level. Data are reported from a population at Balgzand, in the south-westernmost part of the Wadden Sea, which has been monitored for two decades. This population showed a strongly fluctuating density and was seemingly absent for more than three years following three severe winters in succession. Over-winter survival in adults was greater during mild than cold winters, and close to zero during all winters that were colder than average. Recruitment was higher in warm than in cold summers. Growth was more rapid in warm than in cold spring-summer periods. In warm years growth rates were higher than in more southern locations, and values for maximum size and life span were relatively high.

The paleomagnetism of the Plio-Pleistocene continental sediments cropping out at the north-eastern edge of the Fucino extensionaI basin (Italy, Central Apennines) was investigated. The area is characterized by strong neo-tectonic activity and the original purpose was to investigate possibIe verticaI axis rotations in Plio-Pleisto- cene sediments, in order to improve the understanding of the recent geodynamic processes. Scarcity of suit- able outcrops limited sampling at 8 sites (83 specimens) from the north-eastern edge of the basin, in clay-rich intervals beIonging to two different sedimentary cycIes. The paleomagnetic resuIts pointed out a peculiar mag- netic behaviour common to the whole set of studied samples. The Natural Remanent Magnetization (NRM) is dominated by a vigcous normal component acquired under the influence of the present geomagnetic field, stable only below 200°C. Another (reverse) very weak component, stable at higher temperatures (up to 400°C), is present in most of the samples. This component can be precisely isolated for only 7 specimens from 3 different sites and therefore the information gained is not statistically sufficient for any tectonic reconstruction. Rock magnetism analyses showed a variable magnetic mineralogy j but the NRM carriers are not well represented in the artificial remanences produced in the laboratory. Results suggest that the natural viscous remanence is most likeIy carried by coarse multi-domain magnetite.

After the 1989 sea-floor eruption off the east coast of Ito city, no remarkable activities of earthquake swarms were observed in the eastern part of the Izu Peninsula, Central Japan during the period from 1990 to 1992. However, a small swarm activity was again observed in January, 1993 and a remarkable one took place again in May-June 1993. Several months after the subsidence of the swarm activity, abrupt changes in the crustal movement in the inland of the peninsula were observed during the period from September 1993 to February 1994. At some continuous observation sites, well correlated changes in the geomagnetic total intensity were observed almost during the same period when the anomalous changes in the crustal movement were seen in the eastern part of the peninsula. The spatial patterns of negative changes of the total intensity in the northern half and positive ones in the south were seen in the north-eastern edge of the domed distribution of the upheaval. The changes in crustal movement and the geomagnetic field terminated when a small swarm activity occurred at the end of February 1994.
