The rotating cylinder electrode (RCE) configuration is one of the most used electrochemical configurations for turbulent flow regimes. For laminar regimes, it appears problematic to choose the adapted predictive correlation for limiting current densi...
[Extract] This paper is based on fieldwork with Aboriginal people in Charters Towers, a rural town in northern Queensland in Australia. It concerns Aboriginal funerals, which are one of the most important events by which rural Aboriginal people in no...
Two groups of 96 winged pearl oysters, Pteria sterna, with mean (± S.D.) dorso-ventral shell height (DVM) of 75.0 ± 6.0 mm, were used to evaluate the effect of two culture methods (pocket nets and plastic cages) on the quality of half-pearls (mabé) p...
Size variation among propagules is ubiquitous and small initial differences in size can be critical to survival, particularly in taxa where initial survival is variable and strongly size-dependent. Despite this, the sources of size variation among fi...
Review date: Review period January 1992–December 2001. Final analysis July 2004–January 2005. Background and review context: There has been no rigorous systematic review of the outcomes of early exposure to clinical and community settings in medical ...
The world's coral reefs are in decline, with many exhibiting a phase shift from coral to macroalgal dominance [1], [2], [3], [4], [5] and [6]. This change is often associated with habitat loss and overharvesting of herbivorous fishes, particularly pa...
Long-term pH compensation in a marine teleost requires the transepithelial excretion of H+ across the gill epithelium. H+ efflux in the longhorn sculpin (Myoxocephalus octodecemspinosus) is dependent on external sodium ion concentration and is inhibi...
Context: The Royal Flying Doctor Service (Queensland Section), Australia, provides health services for remote populations across an area of approximately 600 000 km2. The challenge presented to the service was to provide effective health promotion as...
Introduction: Postnatal depression affects 14% of women, occurring also antenatally, with potential long-term consequences, making it an important disorder to detect and manage early. In this study we sought to examine knowledge and awareness of peri...
Introduction: Like Indigenous populations in other countries, an epidemic of chronic disease has swept across Australia’s Indigenous communities in the past decade. The Northern Territory and Queensland health departments initiated preventable chroni...
