Gladstone Permanent Transect Seagrass Monitoring: December 2012 update report
No full textSeagrass is being monitored at permanent transects at 10 different locations in Port Curtis and Rodd's Bay on a monthly basis. This update report provides results for seagrass percent cover from the most recent monthly survey of permanent transects undertaken on the 12th and 13th December 2012.
Seagrass has been monitored quarterly at permanent transects at seven locations in Port Curtis and Rodd's Bay since November 2009 (excluding Redcliffe which has been monitored since August 2010) (see maps on pages 3 to 6). The program was established to determine within and among year variation in seagrass condition and form the key sensitive receptor sites for assessing seagrass condition during the Western Basin dredging operation.
In September 2011, Gladstone Ports Corporation Limited commissioned additional monthly surveys outside of the regular quarterly monitoring to provide more frequent assessments of seagrass condition during dredging operations. These additional monthly surveys are conducted aerially to avoid damaging sites through repeated on-ground sampling.
An additional permanent transect site was es tablished at Wiggins Island (December 2011) due to the development of the Wiggins Island Coal Terminal near the original site. An additional site was also established at Facing Island (March 2012) where changes in meadow distribution resulted in the original si te being situated at the edge of the meadow. In August 2012, an additional site was also established at Redcliffe. This site is located adjacent to the main channel where any impacts associated with dredging are more likely to occur. Both the original and new sites at these locations are being monitored to determine if there are significant differences in seagrass communities between sites.
In August 2012 three new sites were established in the Narrows region to monitor seagrass during dredging occurring as part of the Narrows Pipeline Crossing (see Map page 6)
Notes on the History of the Sale Room of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo
Get PDFThe author retraces the history of the Sale Room of the Cairo Museum, from the first sales at the Boulaq Museum to the more organised ones at the Giza Museum, up to the Sale Room of the Cairo Museum, still exhisting at the beginning of the 1970s. This latter date is attested by some pages of the Register of the Sale Room, of which some photographs are preserved in the Archives of the Statale University of Milan. The supervisors of the Sale Room through the years are presented, as well as some case studies, including the gifts of State
Ethics of Becoming as a Frame for Ethics: Theatricality and Balance in Greenaway’s The Cook, the Thief, his Wife and her Lover
No full textThis article reads Peter Greenaway’s 1989 film The Cook, the Thief, his Wife and her Lover for the way it deals with the relation between justice and desire. The authors discuss how the film portrays, on the one hand, a desire for justice that seeks a theatrical mode of legal procedure in the form of a rule of law that is systematically ethical; and on the other hand, desire as justice as the expression of what Gilles Deleuze called the “ethics of becoming.” The two forms are brought in tension in the film’s final scene, which can be read either as a case presented to the viewer as audience in the judicial theatre, or as a feud that plays out on what the authors read as a Brechtian podium, a space characterized by its radical openness and accessibility. On the podium the procedure is not structured by an audience that needs to watch the proceedings as a check on its fairness, but in which the audience actively participates in determining the situation. Through formal, cinematographic elements, The Cook, the Thief, his Wife and her Lover brings these two modes of desire and justice, and the ethical, theatrical and procedural forms they imply, in tension with one another. It makes the film a crucial jurisprudential text.Modern and Contemporary Studie
Dynamics of a tropical deepwater seagrass community during a major dredging campaign
Get PDFA research and monitoring program was established to examine the potential impacts of a large scale capital dredging program on a tropical deepwater seagrass community between December 2005 and June 2008. The aims of the monitoring program were to fill gaps in our understanding of the dynamics of tropical deepwater seagrass habitats, their roles in fisheries productivity and their resilience and capacity for recovery from disturbance associated with dredging. While the dynamics of shallow coastal seagrasses in the region have been the subject of many studies little was previously known about the low density deepwater seagrass habitat that typified the study area. Results of the study revealed that these deepwater meadows had a high natural seasonal and inter-annual variability. Seasonality was substantially different to neighbouring shallow seagrass communities with a winter peak in abundance declining in spring before losing all above-ground biomass during summer months. Turbidity associated with dredging inhibited seagrass recruitment but there was evidence of seagrass recovery 12 months after the completion of dredging activity. Implications of the study for managing impacts to deepwater seagrass communities and differences in response to shallow coastal seagrasses are discussed
Implementing community based seagrass monitoring in the Wellesley Island Group
Get PDFA survey was commissioned in 2007 by the Carpentaria Land Council Aboriginal Corporation (CLCAC) and the North Australia Indigenous Land and Sea Management Alliance (NAILSMA) on behalf of the Traditional Owners of the Wellesley Island region who had raised concerns over unhealthy dugong and turtle reported from hunters. Traditional Owners felt that one possible cause of sick animals may have been as a result of seagrass dieback causing a shortage of food to the animals. To answer the concerns of the Traditional Owners, the Department of Primary Industries and Fisheries Marine Ecology Group was commissioned to survey the seagrass communities of the Wellesley Islands and to train Wellesley Islands Rangers on seagrass mapping techniques. This was the first time that seagrasses have been formally surveyed and mapped for 23 years in the Wellesley Islands. Seagrass communities were the dominant benthic habitat in intertidal and shallow subtidal areas with a high diversity (8 specie s) of coastal seagrass compared with other Gulf of Carpentaria locations. Evidence of heavy dugong feeding activity was observed on most intertidal seagrass meadows surveyed. The highest density of dugong feeding trails was observed in seagrass meadows dominated by Halodule uninervis (narrow leaf form) and/or Halophila ovalis. In addition, dugongs were regularly observed feeding in subtidal meadows from the helicopter during surveys. This survey was used to help fill gaps in knowledge and provide a baseline from which future monitoring could be conducted to identify research required to answer the uncertainties raised by the Traditional Owners, and to help with developing zoning plans for the management of their Sea Country
