  text: The dispersal rate of the grasshopper Podisma pedestris has been measured,
    with the aim of interpreting the width of a chromosomal cline. 171 adults were
    marked individually, and released within the cline. 169 movements were seen over
    three subsequent scorings; the distribution of distances, after correction for
    the loss of long distance dispersants, was close to a normal curve, but there
    was an initial shift of ten metres, perhaps towards a better habitat. The linear
    variance increased at about 214 m2 day- 1, which corresponds to a standard deviation
    of 207 m gen- 1/2 over a 20 day life span. Statistical uncertainty in this estimate
    can be expressed using a distribution-free maximum likelihood method, which gives
    support limits of 186- 270 m gen- 1/2. However, the main errors come from extrapolating
    from this experiment to the cline as a whole.

  text: "An algorithm for the geometric problem of determining a line (called a stabbing
    line) which intersects each ofn given line segments in the plane is presented.
    As a matter of fact, the algorithm computes a description of all stabbing lines.
    A purely geometric fact is proved which infers that this description requiresO(n)
    space to be specified. Our algorithm computes it inO(n logn) time which is optimal
    in the worst case.\r\nUsing the description of the stabbing lines, we are able
    to decide inO(logn) time whether or not a specified line is a stabbing line. Finally,
    the problem of maintaining the description of all stabbing lines while inserting
    and deleting line segments is addressed."
