Differential impacts of light on coral phenotypic responses to acute heat stress

Reef building corals are in global decline due to climate change and other pressures. Yet, corals show wide variation in physiological responses to heat stress. The influence of light is often dismissed when characterising variation in coral thermal tolerance. Hence, we investigate how light levels affect the photochemical and bleaching responses that typically inform coral thermal tolerance in acute heat-stress experiments using corals from two habitats. Despite natural variations in temperature regimes between sites, both coral populations responded similarly to acute heat-stress across seasons. The decline in the photochemical response (Fv/Fm) after heat stress (winter: +9 C, summer: + 7.5 C) was small on average (&le; 6 %) indicating no light stress, but consistently greater in high light (16&ndash;24 Daily light integrals, DLI) compared to low light treatments (4&ndash;11 DLI). Fv/Fm responses varied per genotype (+3 % to - 50 % relative change) and despite small declines in Fv/Fm, all genotypes lost pigment in summer (10 % to 45 % relative change in tissue colour) and paled significantly irrespective of light treatment. These results highlight the complexity of the bleaching response to the primary drivers of temperature and light stress. Further research is needed to understand how light levels affect acute heat-stress responses across studies particularly when thermal tolerance is based on single phenotypes. Incor&shy;porating light as a contributing factor to thermal stress indicators will advance our understanding of coral temperature thresholds, to improve coral bleaching predictions based on ubiquitous environmental drivers.

Adelie penguin occupancy survey of the Balaena Islands, 2012

An occupancy survey on 26 January 2012 found 1 island (70166) along the coast between 111 degrees 00'E - 111 degrees 10'E had populations of breeding Adelie penguins. The survey was conducted from a fixed wing aircraft and oblique aerial photographs were taken of the occupied site. The aerial photographs were geo-referenced to the coastline shapefile from the Landsat Image Mosaic of Antarctica (LIMA, tile E158) and the boundaries of penguin colonies were digitised from the geo-referenced photos with not intentional buffer. Note the quality of the aerial photos was poor and so the resultant boundary mapping will not be very accurate. Also in the Balaena Islands there is a historic record from the 50s of penguins nesting on Thompson Islet (70166). When aerial photos were taken of this island penguins could not be detected.

Territory Plan Precinct Codes_point

The Territory Plan is the key statutory planning document in the ACT, providing the policy framework for the administration of planning in the ACT.
The Territory Plan guides the planning and development of the ACT. It is changed from time to time due to social, economic and environmental reasons. The Territory Plan is used to manage development, in particular the way in which land is used and what can be built. It is used in the process of assessing development applications and to guide the development of new estate areas (future urban land). Land in the ACT is divided into sections and blocks. The blocks are zoned and the zoning determines the form of development on a block. There are 23 different zones. The Territory Plan map shows all these zones as different colours.
The purpose of the Territory Plan map is to show the zones and overlays that apply to land in the ACT, in accordance with requirements under the Planning and Development Act 2007.

DMS in the Southern Ocean

From 1991 to 2000 14 voyages have been completed in the Southern Ocean. Measurements of DMS (Dimethylsulfide) and DMSP (Dimethylsulfoniopropionate) have been carried out on surface and subsurface waters together with physical and biological measurements, with a view to understanding the main processes that affect DMS in the Southern Ocean.  The first flux measurements have been carried out for DMS (see Curran and Jones 2000) in the last 3 years a concerted study has been carried out in the seasonal ice zone this study aims to identify the major phytoplankton assemblages responsible for DMS and DMSP production in the sea ice zone. It is thought that the sea ice zone also contributes to DMS in the atmosphere.  This is being quantified.

ACT Deaths - dashboard

The data contained in this dataset is based on the Cause Of Death Unit Record File (CODURF) provided by the Australian Coordinating Registry (ACR), the data has been aggregated based on either a single or grouped ICD-10* classification.
Mortality statistics are based on the Cause Of Death Unit Record File (CODURF) provided by the Australian Coordinating Registry (ACR) and are reported by year of occurrence. There can be lags in the registration of deaths with the state or territory registries. Consequently, not all deaths are registered in the year that they occur. In addition, a coroner may investigate a death if the death is unexpected or violent (such as a homicide and suicide), when the identity is unknown, cause of death is not known or if the person is in care or custody. The coronial process can take several years, particularly where an inquest is held, or complex investigations are being undertaken. Therefore, there is a delay in reporting deaths through this process.
Deaths for 2020 and 2021 are preliminary and are subject to change.
The ACT deaths data is collected and maintained by the ACT registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages (ACT RBDM), which records all medical conditions that directly caused or contributed to the death and were applicable, ie the circumstances surrounding a death (eg. motor vehicle accident).
The National Coronial Information System (NCIS) records and stores information relating to coroner certified deaths for the purposes of retrieval, analysis, interpretation and dissemination to allow for informed death and injury prevention activities.
The Australian Coordinating Registry (ACR) is an agency appointed by state and territory RBDMs and coroners to coordinate and manage approval of coded deaths data.

Burrowing petrels at Heard Island, 1987/88.

Surveys were conducted at the eastern and western ends of Heard Island during the 1987/1988 season.  Burrow densities in different habitat types (vegetated and unvegetated) were determined from fixed width transects.  Extensive areas at both ends of the island were surveyed and detailed information was obtained on distribution and abundance on 4 species of burrowing petrels.
This work was completed as part of ASAC project 451 (ASAC_451).
This work also falls under the umbrella project, ASAC 1219 (ASAC_1219).

Road Access Restriction

The physical boundary between two road reserve segments that prevents vehicular access; or the boundary of applicability of a road name between two road reserve segments that do not belong to the same road where one road runs into another (and hence there is no physical boundary or indication). The type of physical boundary relevant in each case is defined by the VEHICULAR_ACCESSS_FLAG attribute.
The second use of the ACCESS_RESTRICTION table, as a barrier between applicability of road name is used simply for the purposes of graphical presentation. The difference in road name applicability can be determined from the links between the road reserve segment and the road to which it belongs.
However, in most cases the barrier between roads would not be displayed on a map because it is obvious from the shapes of surrounding roads. This second use of the table caters for the case where it is not visibly obvious where one road ends and the next begins.
