Of the North American total, about 1,100,000 barrels per day came from Texas, 420,000 from California, 170,000 from Mexico, and the remainder largely from Arkansas, Mississippi, and New Mexico. The sulfurous Venezuelan crudes come from the Lake Maracaibo area and these, like the Mexican crudes, give relatively low yields of naphtha and middle distillates, thus differing from the Middle East crudes. Only small amounts of crude oil with sulfur contents greater than 1% by weight exist in U.S.S.R., Europe, and the Far East.

The Bolivar Coastal Fields (BCF) of eastern Lake Maracaibo, Venezuela, contain five classes of oil as reflected by their API gravities, C15+ saturates-and-aromatics contents as well as their total nitrogen, sulfur, and oxygen (NSO) compositions. Biodegradation appears to have had a major role in controlling the... 

More recent evidence suggests a role in intracellular vesicular trafficking (Caviston and Holzbaur, 2009). HD is the most common of the (CAG)n/Qn-expansion diseases, despite the fact that new expansion mutational expansions in the Htt gene are believed to be exceedingly rare. The incidence of HD worldwide is about 5-10 per 100,000 individuals. Japan has a very low rate (0.1-0.5 per 100,000), whereas in the Lake Maracaibo region of Venezuela the incidence exceeds 100 per...

Figure 1. Vertical distribution of principal vegetation belts in the cordillera de Merida, a tropical high range in the northern Andes of Venezuela. The selected transect extends 120 km in the northerly direction across two parallel ranges of different elevation. Vegetation bands appear slanted towards the outer flanks because of greater moisture levels carried by easterly trade winds from the Orinoco basin and northeasterly winds from the Caribbean Sea and the Maracaibo lake basin to the north.
