Change in wild-oyster assemblages of Port Stephens, NSW, Australia, since commencement of non-native Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) aquaculture
No full textProliferation of species introduced for aquaculture can threaten the ecological and economic integrity of ecosystems. We assessed whether the non-native Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, has proliferated, spread and overgrown native Sydney rock oysters, Saccostrea glomerata, in Port Stephens, New South Wales (NSW), Australia, following the 1991 decision to permit its aquaculture within this estuary. Sampling of seven rocky-shore and four mangrove sites immediately before (1990), immediately after (1991-1992) and nearly two decades after (2008) the commencement of C. gigas aquaculture did not support the hypotheses of C. gigas proliferation, spread or overgrowth of S. glomerata. The non-native oyster, uncommon immediately before the commencement of aquaculture, remained confined to the inner port and its percentage contribution to oyster assemblages generally declined over the two decades. C. gigas populations were dominated by individuals of <40-mm shell height, with established adults being rare. Only at one site was there an increase in C. gigas abundance that was accompanied by S. glomerata decline. The failure of C. gigas in Port Stephens to cause the catastrophic changes in fouling assemblages seen elsewhere in the world is likely to reflect estuarine circulation patterns that restrict larval transport and susceptibility of the oysters to native predators. © 2010 CSIRO
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.

Developing the tissue viability seating guidelines
No full textBackground:
Costs for the prevention and management of pressure ulcers have
increased significantly with limited published advice from health and
social care organisations on seating and preventing pressure ulcers. At
the request of the UK Tissue Viability Society the aim of the
publication was to develop a practical guide for people, carers and
health and social care professionals on how the research and evidence
base on pressure ulcer prevention and management can be applied to those
who remain seated for extended periods of time.
Methods and findings:
The evidence base informing the guidelines was obtained by applying a
triangulation of methods: a literature review, listening event and
stakeholder group consultation. The purpose was to engage users and
carers, academics, clinicians, inspectorate and charities, with an
interest in seating, positioning and pressure management to: gather
views, feedback, stories, and evidence of the current practices in the
field to create a greater awareness of the issue.
Conclusion:
The new guidelines are inclusive of all people with short and long-term
mobility issues to include all population groups. The document includes
evidence on where pressure ulcers develop when seated, risk factors,
best possible seated position and what seat adjustments are required,
the ideal seating assessment, interventions, self-help suggestions and
key seating outcomes. The updated TVS CPGs have been informed by the
best available evidence, the insights and wisdom of experts,
stakeholders and people who spend extended periods of time sittin
