Archivos Nacionales de Australia

Los Archivos Nacionales de Australia (en inglés: National Archives of Australia, NAA) es una agencia del Gobierno australiano que constituye el depósito oficial de todos los documentos del Gobierno federal. Recoge, conserva y proporciona acceso público a estos documentos, así como a otro material de archivo relacionado con Australia que los Archivos consideren que debe conservarse.​ Los Archivos Nacionales se crearon en 1961. Antes de esto, la Biblioteca Parlamentaria Federal (ahora Biblioteca Nacional de Australia) había sido responsable de recopilar registros gubernamentales desde la Primera Guerra Mundial. Bajo esta ley, los Archivos Nacionales son responsables de preservar los registros del gobierno.​ La colección de los Archivos Nacionales está compuesta por más de 45 millones de registros escritos sobre la federación, los gobernadores generales, los primeros ministros, el Gabinete y los ministerios y la mayoría de las actividades en las que ha participado el gobierno desde 1901.​ Aunque parte de la colección no está abierta al público para su consulta, la Archives Act 1983 establece un derecho de acceso público a los «documentos abiertos» de la administración de la Mancomunidad, es decir, los documentos que tienen 20 años o más. El acta también permite a determinadas categorías de investigadores un acceso especial a los registros de la Mancomunidad que no están a disposición del público.​ Este tipo de información incluye documentos relacionados con la defensa y la seguridad, información privada y datos censales brutos. El acceso a la información que es culturalmente sensible para los indígenas australianos también puede ser restringido. Varias colecciones han sido puestas en línea. Estos incluyen todos los registros del servicio militar australiano (registros de aquellos que sirvieron en el ejército) desde la Segunda Guerra de los Bóer hasta la Guerra de Vietnam.​ En 2005 se pusieron a disposición documentos de inmigración y naturalización con más de 30 años de antigüedad.​ Referencias Enlaces externos Archivos Nacionales de Australia Historia de la NAA Ley de Archivos de 1983, en ComLaw Documentando una democracia
National Archives of Australia

National Archives of Australia – archiwa państwowe Australii z siedzibą w Canberze. W 2011 roku National Archives of Australia otrzymały nagrodę Jikji dla instytucji i osób prywatnych, które najlepiej realizują cele projektu UNESCO Pamięć Świata. Historia Początki państwowych zbiorów archiwalnych Australii sięgają lat 20. XX wieku, kiedy to zgodnie z instrukcja premiera Williama Hughesa dokumenty historyczne z okresu I wojny światowej zebrano w Muzeum Wojny (późniejszym Australian War Memorial). W 1942 roku premier John Curtin powołał do życia Committee on the Collection and Preservation of Historical Records (pol. Komitet ds. Archiwum i Konserwacji Dokumentów Historycznych), przemianowany następnie na War Archives Committee (pol. Komitet Archiwów Wojennych), który poprowadził historyk C.E.W. Bean. W 1946 roku War Archives Committee został przekształcony w Commonwealth Archives Office (pol. Komitet Archiwów Commonwealthu). W 1954 roku do Australii przyjechał amerykański archiwista T.R. Schellenberg, ówczesny dyrektor amerykańskich archiwów narodowych (ang. National Archives and Records Administration) w Waszyngtonie. Schellenberg wezwał władze australijskie do powołania archiwum narodowego Australii. W 1961 roku Commonwealth Archives Office został wyodrębniony z Biblioteki Narodowej Australii a w 1974 roku przemianowany na Archives of Australia. W 1998 roku archiwa otrzymały nazwę National Archives of Australia (pol. Narodowe Archiwa Australii). W 2011 roku National Archives of Australia otrzymały nagrodę Jikji dla instytucji i osób prywatnych, które najlepiej realizują cele projektu UNESCO Pamięć Świata.

Molle-Islands-Nationalpark

i2i3i6 Der Molle-Islands-Nationalpark (engl.: Molle Islands National Park) ist ein Nationalpark im Osten des australischen Bundesstaates Queensland. Lage Er liegt 913 km nordwestlich von Brisbane und ca. 100 km nördlich von Mackay. Die Molle Islands liegen westlich des Whitsunday-Islands-Nationalparks auf dem Festlandsockel in der Korallensee. Die Molle Islands besteht aus 8 Inseln: Long Island, Daydream Island (früher: West Molle Island), Denman Island, Goat Island, Mid Molle Island, North Molle Island, Planton Island und South Molle Island. Alle Inseln gehören zum UNESCO-Weltnaturerbe Great Barrier Reef. In der Umgebung liegen die Nationalparks Repulse Islands, Whitsunday Islands, Lindeman Islands und Gloucester Island; auf dem Festland der Conway-Nationalpark. Geschichte Seit Tausenden von Jahren lebten die Aborigines der Ngaro auf den Inseln vor diesem Küstengebiet. Die Ngaro (auch Island People in Australien genannt) waren ein Stamm der Aborigines, die als Seefahrer eingeordnet werden und nicht als typische Coastal People (indigene Küstenmenschen) Australiens. Sie waren der einzige seefahrende Aboriginesstamm Australiens und lebten etwa 9000 Jahre lang in diesem Inselgebiet. Die Ngaro starben als Stamm in der Zeit der britischen Kolonisation aus. Die europäischen Siedler nutzten das Land als Viehweide und verdrängten die indigene Bevölkerung. 1937 wurde der Archipel zum Nationalpark erklärt. Benannt ist der Nationalpark nach dem Oberst George James Molle, der in der britischen Kolonialzeit Lieutenant Governor in New South Wales war. Geologie Wie auch die Whitsunday Islands sind die Molle Islands vulkanischen Ursprungs. Ausbrüche vor 110 Mio. Jahren ließen in der Gegend Berge entstehen, die später in der Korallensee versanken. Die Molle Islands wurden in einer Eiszeit als Inseln ausgebildet, als das Polareis schmolz und das Land flutete. Flora Auf den Inseln findet man vornehmlich lichter Eukalyptuswald, an den geschützteren Stellen auch tropischen Regenwald, ansonsten Grasland, an den ausgesetzten Hängen. Häufiges Abbrennen des Graslandes durch die Ngaro verhinderte das Verbuschen. Einrichtungen Auf drei bewohnten Inseln Daydream Island, South Molle Island und Long Island befinden sich Resort Hotels. Das Zelten ist auf South Molle Island (Sandy Bay, Paddle Bay) und auf etlichen anderen Inseln gestattet, es gibt aber keine Einrichtungen. Auf South Molle Island, Long Island und North Molle Island gibt es Picknickplätze und Toiletten. Angelegte Wanderwege gibt es nicht. Zufahrt Die direkt östlich von Shute Harbour gelegene Inselgruppe ist von dort und von Airlie Beach aus mit privaten oder kommerziellen Booten erreichbar. Einzelnachweise

Lacepedeinseln

Die Lacepedeinseln sind eine aus vier kleinen Inseln bestehende Inselkette vor der Nordwestküste Australiens (150 km nördlich von Broome in Western Australia). Die Inseln bilden heute ein Naturreservat. Geographie Die Inselgruppe liegt mit East Island gut 20 Kilometer vor der Küste der Dampier-Halbinsel und ist von dieser durch den Lacepede Channel getrennt. Sie erstreckt sich über 12 Kilometer von Südosten nach Nordwesten. Die Gesamtfläche der Inseln beläuft sich auf 165 Hektar. Andere Quellen nennen 180,2 bzw. 162,9 Hektar. Die einzelnen Inseln sind: East Island (3,5 ha) Sandy Island (7,94 ha) Middle Island (60,9 ha) West Island (90,6 ha) East Island ist die kleinste der vier Inseln, weist aber einen Leuchtturm East Island Lighthouse auf, der den Lacepede Channel sichert. Verwaltungsmäßig gehört die Inselgruppe ebenso wie der Großteil der Dampier-Halbinsel zur Broome Shire. Geschichte Die aus Sand und Korallenschutt auf einem Korallenriff bestehenden Inseln wurden 1801 von dem französischen Forschungsreisenden Nicolas Baudin entdeckt und nach dem französischen Naturforscher Bernard Germain Lacépède benannt, dessen Sohn die Expedition als Naturforscher begleitete. Tierwelt Auf den West- und Middle Islands befindet sich eine der größten Brutkolonien von Brauntölpeln (Sula leucogaster) und Arielfregattvögeln (Fregata ariel) des Indischen Ozeans. Auf der Westinsel gibt es noch eine Bucht, Lagoon Creek, mit einem ausgedehnten Watt, welches wandernde Watvögel und Seeschwalben anlockt. Hier lebende Vogelarten sind: Zügelseeschwalbe (Sterna anaethetus) Noddiseeschwalbe (Anous stolidus) Rüppellseeschwalbe (Sterna bengalensis) Rosenseeschwalbe (Sterna dougallii) Raubseeschwalbe (Sterna caspia) Zwergseeschwalbe (Sterna albifrons) Pelikane Elsterscharbe (Phalacrocorax varius) Im Oktober beginnt die Paarungszeit der Suppenschildkröte (Chelonia mydas) in den Gewässern um die Westinsel. Mit Beginn der feuchten Jahreszeit legen die Weibchen ihre Eier ab. An den Inseln lebt die größte westaustralische Kolonie der Suppenschildkröten. In kleineren Zahlen gibt es auch Gelege der Wallriffschildkröte (Natator depressus) auf den Inseln. Die vielen Seevögel haben größere Mengen Guano hinterlassen, die in der Zeit von 1850 bis 1870 durch US-Amerikaner ausgebeutet wurden. Von den USA wurden auch Ansprüche (wohl nach dem Guano Islands Act) auf die Inseln selber erhoben, die jedoch auf eine Reklamation seitens der westaustralischen Regierung hin fallengelassen wurden.

Lacepede Islands

Le Lacepede Islands sono un piccolo gruppo di quattro isole situate al largo della costa della penisola Dampier nelle acque dell'oceano Indiano. Appartengono alla Local government area della Contea di Broome, nella regione di Kimberley (Australia Occidentale). Le isole (definite nel numero di tre) si chiamavano originariamente Victoria Island, Grant Island e Napoleon Island. Geografia Le isole Lacepede sono disposte in una catena lunga circa 12,5 km. Si trovano circa 120 km a nord di Broome e distano circa 25 km dalla costa della penisola Dampier, divise dal Lacepede Channel. Si trovano a ovest di Beagle Bay. Le isole sono basse, composte di sabbia grezza e detriti di corallo e giacciono su una piattaforma di barriera corallina. Sono prive di alberi ma supportano una bassa vegetazione. La loro superficie complessiva è di circa 1,65 km². La media annuale delle precipitazioni è di circa 750 mm. East Island, ha un'area di 3,5 ha. Sull'isola c'è un faro. Middle Island, ha un'area di 60 ha Sandy Island, ha un'area di 7,94 ha. West Island, l'isola maggiore, ha un'area di 82 ha. Fauna Le isole Lacepede sono la più significativa zona di riproduzione della tartaruga verde nell'Australia occidentale. Le isole sono state identificate da BirdLife International come Important Bird Area (IBA) perché supportano oltre l'1% della popolazione mondiale di sula fosca e di sterna di Dougall. Altri uccelli marini che si riproducono sulle isole sono: la sula mascherata, il pellicano australiano, la fregata minore, la garzetta di Reef, il gabbiano australiano, la sterna crestata, la sterna dalle redini, la sterna del Ruppel, la sterna stolida bruna, la beccaccia di mare orientale e la beccaccia di mare fuligginosa. Tra i trampolieri che transitano sulle isole ci sono: il piro-piro asiatico, il voltapietre, il piovanello beccosottile e il corriere di Leschenault. Storia Nicolas Baudin, che guidava la spedizione francese di esplorazione delle coste dell'Australia sulle navi Geographe e Naturaliste, avvistò le isole nell'agosto del 1801 e le intitolò in onore dello zoologo Bernard Germain de Lacépède. Louis de Freycinet che viaggiava con Baudin tracciò il nome delle isole sulla sua mappa pubblicata nel 1811. Nel diciannovesimo secolo, le isole Lacepede erano tra le numerose isole al largo della costa dell'Australia occidentale sfruttate per l'estrazione del guano. Nel 1876 scoppiò una disputa per la presa di possesso delle isole da parte degli USA sulla base della Guano Islands Act che si risolse nel 1877. L'estrazione del guano terminò nel 1879 quando la goletta Aurora rimosse i macchinari usati per l'estrazione. Note
Aubigny, North Quay

Aubigny (later called Loretto) was a house located at 273 North Quay, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It is associated with many significant aspects of Brisbane's history. Brisbane's first synagogue The house was originally built in 1870 by Samuel Davis, a Jewish businessman, and included a separate building used as Brisbane's first synagogue. Society mansion In 1883 Patrick Perkins, brewer and politician, used his wealth to buy the palatial home, which he called "Aubigny" after the electoral district of Aubigny that first elected him to the Queensland Legislative Assembly. Patrick Perkins used the former synagogue as a billiards room. Police facility In 1899, the Perkins family rented the property to the Criminal Investigation Department which used the house as offices and the synagogue as a photography room. The first Mater hospital In late 1905 after the death of Perkins, the house was sold to the Rev. Mother Patrick of the Sisters of Mercy to create the 20-bed Mater Misericordiae Hospital (now a tertiary hospital located at South Brisbane); the former synagogue being the hospital chapel. Eventually, the hospital outgrew the house and relocated to the South Brisbane area where it still operates. Loretto, girls hostel In 1913, the Sisters of Mercy then renamed the house "Loretto" and used it as a hostel for respectable Catholic girls coming from the country to work in Brisbane; the former synagogue being the maids' quarters. Resumption When the Brisbane City Council decided to build the Grey Street Bridge, it was necessary to resume the property to facilitate road widening. However, until the council needed to use the land, the church were permitted to continue to lease it. In about 1939 a portion of the land not needed for road widening was sold to the Church of Christ, Scientist to build the (now heritage-listed) First Church of Christ, Scientist in Brisbane and the house was sold for £148.

P&O Building (Fremantle)

The former P&O Building, also known as the Australian Union Steamship Navigation Company building, is a heritage-listed building in Phillimore Street in the west end of Fremantle, Western Australia. Following the opening of the deep water port in Fremantle in 1897, many shipping and transport companies acquired land in the area built offices and warehouses. The Australian Union Steamship Navigation Company acquired land along Phillimore Street and constructed the existing building there in 1903. Its principal architect was Charles Lancelot Oldham, who designed the two-storey, brick and stone structure in the Federation Free Classical style with an imposing facade and arches around a large central pediment. The ground level has a recessed colonnade entrance porch while the upper storey has a recessed colonnade arcade with balustrading. There are horizontal shadow lines on the ground floor, with a balustrade parapet and a triangular stuccoed central pediment. The initials AUSNC, for the initial owner, can be seen on the pediment. The steamship company was taken over by P&O in 1914 after the state government broke the company's monopoly by forming the State Shipping Service. The building was listed with the National Trust in 1974. In 1996 the Danish Consul and the shipping company Maersk had offices on the ground floor, while the University of Notre Dame business school occupied the upper floor. The building is currently occupied by the School of Nursing and Midwifery of Notre Dame University. The university spent A$2.78 million refurbishing both the P&O and the neighbouring Howard Smith Building prior to moving in. The architect for the renovation was Marcus Collins, and the builder was Bill Fairweather. See also List of heritage places in Fremantle References
Coldstream Airport

Coldstream Airport (ICAO: YCEM) is a small Australian regional airfield located in the township of Coldstream in Greater Melbourne, Victoria. Coldstream is one of two airports in the Yarra Valley serving the general aviation needs of outer eastern Melbourne, with the other being Lilydale Airport. History The airstrip at Coldstream was established in March 1962 by Jim Doake, and the airport is still owned by the Doake family. From January 1996, the airfield was operated by the Royal Victorian Aero Club as the base for its flight training school. In February 2011, the RVAC committee voted to relinquish its operation of the airfield, and the flying school's chief pilot, Bob Boyd, took over its operation as Yarra Valley Flight Training on 1 August 2011. The runway was sealed in April 2014, and is the only sealed strip in the Yarra Valley. The airfield was also the base of AvServe until 2018 when it closed down.

East Preston tram depot

East Preston tram depot was a depot on the Yarra Trams network in Melbourne. Located on Plenty Road, East Preston, it opened in 1955 to coincide with the reintroduction of trams to Bourke Street. It closed in April 2016. History The Melbourne & Metropolitan Tramways Board made plans in 1938 for a depot in Preston, on the site later occupied by the now closed Preston & Northcote Community Hospital, but these were dropped due to congestion concerns. The current site was identified in the early 1950s, and opened on 26 June 1955, replacing the old Preston depot (also referred to as Thornbury depot). Its opening coincided with the reintroduction of tram services to Bourke Street; the former Bourke Street cable lines, Melbourne's last, had been converted to bus operations on 26 October 1940. When the Public Transport Corporation was privatised in August 1999, East Preston depot passed to Yarra Trams. In 2000 a paint shop and refurbishment bay was established. Between 2000 and 2004 these facilities were used to apply all over advertising liveries. In 2006, East Preston depot became Yarra Trams' first 'Green Depot'. A variety of initiatives were implemented aimed at lowering the environmental footprint of the depot, including, three rainwater tanks with a combined capacity of 18,000 litres, water efficient appliances within the depot, 60 solar panels, and more efficient lighting and cooling technology. Energy consumption dropped 40% while 424,800 litres of water was saved in the 2005–06-year. During August 2012, track renewal took place, affecting roads one to ten. In April 2016, East Preston tram depot closed with operations transferred to Preston Workshops. It is now used for storing trams. The refurbishments are being undertaken for life extension at the East Preston Depot. Layout The depot consists of 13 roads, 10 of which are covered. Routes When it closed in April 2016, the following routes operated from East Preston depot: 11: West Preston to Victoria Harbour Docklands 86: Bundoora RMIT to Waterfront City Docklands References
