Overcoming Indigenous Disadvantage report
No full textThe Overcoming Indigenous Disadvantage (OID) report measures the wellbeing of Australia’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.\r\n\r\nThe report provides information about outcomes across a range of strategic areas such as governance, leadership and culture, early child development, education and training, healthy lives, economic participation, home environment, and safe and supportive communities. \r\n\r\nThe report examines whether policies and programs are achieving positive outcomes for Indigenous Australians. \r\n\r\nThe report and associated data tables are available via the following link:\r\nhttp://www.pc.gov.au/research/ongoing/overcoming-indigenous-disadvantage\r\n\r\nOvercoming Indigenous Disadvantage: Key Indicators 2016 - <br/>

No full textNERP TE Project 3.3 Targeted surveys for missing and critically endangered rainforest frogs in ecotonal areas, and assessment of whether populations are recovering from disease (JCU)
No full textThis project is conducting surveys of frogs and other vertebrates in ecotonal areas of the Wet Tropics and Eungella. The primary aims are to: (1) assess the current status, distribution and population size of missing and critically endangered frog species of the Wet Tropics and Eungella; (2) map the distribution and intensity of chytrid fungus disease across ecotonal areas; (3) survey these poorly known ecotonal areas for other vertebrates; and (4) provide recommendations for the management of endangered frogs and other threatened vertebrates, and work with land managers to carry out conservation actions. Ultimately this project will determine: \n\n1. whether the ¿extinct¿ frogs of the Wet Tropics and Eungella are really extinct, and what the status of the critically endangered and endagered species is,\n2. whether the dry forest/rainforest ecotones of the western Wet Tropics and Eungella harbour overlooked populations of missing and endangered endangered frog species, and other vertebrates of interest, and\n3. whether threatened frogs are recovering from chytrid disease.Point of truth URL of this metadata record - <br/>Project web site - <br/>QLD_NERP-TE_e-Atlas_Study-area:Project-3-3_2013_Polygons - <br/>
NERP TE Project 11.2 Improved approaches for detection of disease and prevention of spread in Torres Strait (JCU)
No full textThis project focuses on improving methods to detect the introduction of exotic animal diseases into the Torres Strait. The researchers will examine the environmental factors that influence the establishment and persistence of wildlife diseases in the region. They will study insect disease vectors and the incidence of disease in birds in a range of habitats in order to identify where disease risk is greatest. Field studies will be conducted using replicated mosquito trapping and mist netting of birds in Torres Strait, at sites identified from previous projects. \nOutcomes include:\n\n1. Developing a model of disease dynamics across the Torres Strait based on past and ongoing epidemiology and ecological studies on vectors, reservoir hosts and known disease prevalence including the influence of inter-island and PNG traffic on insect vectors.\n\n2. Undertake a fieldwork program that tests and improves upon our understanding (the model) of how diseases are maintained and dispersed across the islands.\n\n3. Use the results to identify appropriate responses for minimizing the risks associated with disease incursion.\n\n4. Develop capacity in north Queensland in the identification and sampling of vectors and diseasesPoint of truth URL of this metadata record - <br/>Project web site - <br/>QLD_NERP-TE_e-Atlas_Study-area:Project-11-2_2013_Points - <br/>

Adelie penguin colonies in the Robinson Group, Antarctica: surveys conducted during 2005/06 and 2006/07
No full textGPS surveys of Adelie Penguin colonies in the Robinson Group, Antarctica were carried out by field biologists from the Australian Antarctic Division during the 2005/06 and 2006/07 seasons. In 2005/06 point data were collected representing the presence or absence of colonies on the islands. The data were collected by Matt Low and Lisa Meyer. In 2006/07 polygon data were collected representing the colonies on the islands. The data were collected by Matt Low and Rhonda Pike. The biologists were working on a project led by Dr Colin Southwell of the Australian Antarctic Division.Point of truth URL of this metadata record - Point of truth URL of this metadata record<br/>Download Adelie Penguin colonies at the Robinson Group: shapefile created from GPS data collected during the 2006/07 season - Download Adelie Penguin colonies at the Robinson Group: shapefile created from GPS data collected during the 2006/07 season<br/>Search the SCAR Feature Catalogue - Search the SCAR Feature Catalogue<br/>Citation reference for this metadata record and dataset - Citation reference for this metadata record and dataset<br/>

Aerial photography at Heard Island 1987/88
No full textAerial photographs of Heard Island taken by 1987/88 ANARE.\n\nThe information below was taken from the ANARE report prepared after the Heard Island visit.\n\nPHOTOGRAPHIC ACTIVITIES, 1987/88.\n\nEric J. Woehler\n\nMovie and aerial photography were undertaken during the 87/88 visit.\n\nAERIAL PHOTOGRAPHY\n\nThe aerial photography was limited to two days, concurrent with the resupply visit by MV Nella Dan during Voyage 2, 18 and 19 October 1987.\n\nA Linhoff camera was mounted in one (HRK) of the two Hughes 500D helicopters on board and two 100 metre rolls of 70mm film were exposed. The first roll was exposed at Spit Island and North and South Spit on 18 October. The second roll was exposed around the Four Bays region, Saddle Point, Hoseason Beach and the archaeological site at Sealers Corner, Corinthian Bay on 19 October. Details of each roll are given in Table 1.\n\nTable 1.

Photography of the harems on North and South Spit and the Four Bays region provided the opportunity of verifying ground counts made on the same day. All exposures were made at approximately 60 knots ground-speed. Flying heights were generally confined to below 350' at Atlas Cove by a low cloud cover and to 500' at Spit by strong winds at higher altitudes.\n\nFlight lines and photo centres representing the Roll 1 aerial photography (Film ANTC1082) are included in the aerial photography data available for download (see provided URL) and have Qinfo = 760. The flight lines and photo centres are provided as shapefiles and Qinfo is an attribute of the shapefiles. \n\nSee the Quality field for comments about the flight lines and photo centres.\n\nThe Australian Antarctic Division (AAD) has prints of some Roll 1 frames. They were stitched together, and glued to a presentation board but have since been separated from the board and stored in an archival box. Print = Y in the attribute table of the photo centres shapefile indicates there is a print for that frame. The prints are not available for loan outside the AAD. \n\nContact the Australian Antarctic Data Centre for access to the prints:\n\nhttp://data.aad.gov.au/aadc/requests/request.cfmPoint of truth URL of this metadata record - Point of truth URL of this metadata record<br/>Download aerial photography flight lines and photo centres - Download aerial photography flight lines and photo centres<br/>Public information for ASAC project 1219 - Public information for ASAC project 1219<br/>Citation reference for this metadata record and dataset - Citation reference for this metadata record and dataset<br/>
