In 1998, the Australian Government released Australia's Oceans Policy (AOP), a world first policy initiative focused on providing a framework for integrated ecosystem-based management of Australia's vast marine domain. The South East Regional Marine Plan, the first regional marine plan to be implemented under AOP, was released on 21 May 2004. This paper argues that although full integration across sectors and jurisdictions has not occurred, new AOP initiatives, institutions and governance processes have considerably increased sectoral and jurisdictional coordination in the South East region. 相似文献

The design of very high energy (VHE) gamma ray telescopes is discussed and it is shown that a triple-mirror telescope operating in threefold fast coincidence provides an effective instrument. The design, construction and operation of a large VHE gamma ray telescope with an energy threshold of 300 GeV (at the zenith) and incorporating several novel features is described. The use of a coincidence guard ring technique is shown to result in the rejection of about 50% of the off-source (proton) events which form a high background and limit the sensitivity of such telescopes. 相似文献

In this short paper we have identified some of the modelling groups that have the capability of simulating or carrying out short range numerical weather prediction over the monsoon belt. We have next outlined some of the important and desirable ingredients for a multilevel primitive equation model over the tropics, with most of the emphasis on the present version of Florida State University's Tropical Prediction Model. Finally, we present briefly some important results based on the present version of our prediction models that relate to the NWP efforts over the monsoon belt. Here we have identified the importance of mountains, convection, the radiative heating balance of the earth's surface, and the planetary boundary layer over the Arabian Sea. 相似文献

Numerical models for simulation of mass flows are typically focussed upon accurately predicting the paths, travel times and
inundation from a single flow or collapse event. When considering catchment-based hazards from a volcano, this is complicated
by often being faced with several possible scenarios. Over the last 800 years at Mt. Taranaki/Egmont, a number of dome growth
and collapse events have resulted in the genesis and emplacement of block-and-ash flows (BAFs). Each BAF was directed northwestward
by a breach in the crater rim. The latest dome collapse events in the AD 1880s and AD 1755 inundated the northwestern flank
and had run-out lengths 10 km from source. Future activity of this type could have a devastating effect on the Taranaki region’s
communities, infrastructure and economy. Hazard planning has involved constructing volcanic hazard maps based upon the areas
inundated by past volcanic flows, with little consideration of present-day topography. Here, a numerical geophysical mass
flow modelling approach is used to forecast the hazards of future comparable BAF events on NW Mt. Taranaki. The Titan2D programme
encompasses a “shallow water”, continuum solution-based, granular flow model. Flow mechanical properties needed for this approach
include estimates of internal and basal friction as well as the physical dimensions of the initial collapse. Before this model
can be applied to Taranaki BAFs, the input parameters must be calibrated by simulating a range of past collapse events. By
using AD 1860 and AD 1755 scenarios, initial collapse volumes can be well constrained and internal and basal friction angles
can be evaluated through an iterative approach from previous run-out lengths. A range of possible input parameters was, therefore,
determined to produce a suite of potentially inundated areas under present-day terrain. A suite of 10 forecasts from a uniformly
distributed range were combined to create a map of relative probabilities of inundation by future BAF events. These results
were combined in a GIS package to produce hazard zones related to user-specified hazard thresholds. Using these input parameter
constraints, future hazard forecasts for this scale and type of event can also take into account changing summit and topographic
configurations following future eruptive or collapse events. 相似文献

Preliminary results are presented of observations of the pure rotational lines of H2 toward T Tauri and Herbig Ae stars using
the Short Wavelength Spectrometer (SWS) on the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). The sources are selected to be isolated low-
and intermediate-mass young stellar objects, for which the presence of a circumstellar disk has been established by millimeter
interferometry. The lowest H2 S(0) and S(1) lines are detected in 3 out of 5 objects. The measured intensities indicate ∼
0.01 M⊙ of warm (T ≈ 150 K) gas in the ISO beam. It is argued that for at least one case (HD 163296), the emission is probably
dominated by the warm gas in the circumstellar disk rather than by shocked- or photon-heated gas in the surrounding envelope.
Such observations can provide important constraints on the radial and vertical temperature profiles in circumstellar disks.

Studies of circumstellar dust and gas in pre-main-sequence systems are in part motivated by a desire to probe possible sites of future or on-going planet formation and, should accretion onto young stars be taking place, to determine whether the observed remnants of embryonic envelopes might yet contribute significantly to the final masses of stars as they evolve towards the main sequence. New 0.35- to 1.3-mm flux measurements have been made for 13 intermediate-mass pre-MS systems in order to estimate total dust+gas masses and to investigate the spatial distribution of circumstellar material. At least two sources may be dominated by compact circumstellar disks; emission from extended envelopes appears to be important for the majority of sources. HD 163296 is an unusual object and warrants further examination. 相似文献

The UBV light curves of the early-type eclipsing binary V448 Cygni, obtained at the Abastumani Astrophysical Observatory from 1964 to 1967, are re-analysed here. The analysis was made assuming the presence of an accretion disc in the system, as inferred from the light-curve shape and spectroscopic characteristics of the system. The Roche model of a binary was used, containing a geometrically and optically thick accretion disc around the hotter and more massive star. By solving the inverse problem, the orbital elements and the physical parameters of the system components and of the accretion disc were estimated. This result is important for understanding the star formation and evolution processes in the systems with massive components. 相似文献

Eruption episodes, where a series of eruption events are generically related, can include the eruption of a wide spectrum of volcanic activity over decadal periods. This paper concentrates on the opening phases of an eruption episode which occurred approximately 1800 yrs BP from Mt Taranaki, New Zealand. These events spanned the eruption of differing bulk compositions and styles from two distinct vent locations; an andesitic sub-plinian eruption from the summit vent and a scoria cone-building eruption of basaltic magma from a satellite vent. Compositional profiles and zoning textures of plagioclase, amphibole and clinopyroxene phenocrysts from the opening andesitic event show evidence of magma mixing and subsequent crystallisation just prior to the initiation of the eruption episode. Titanomagnetite grain morphology and Ti variation suggest that the magma mixing event occurred within a few days to weeks before the eruption acting as a trigger for it. We present a magmatic model which is constrained by the petrological observations and eruptions of the episode. In this model magma differentiation at depth causes its rise and recharging of a mid-crustal magma storage area at 5–7 km. Although the recharging magma differed slightly in oxygen fugacity and temperature, it was compositionally and physically similar enough to the residing andesitic magma to allow efficient mixing. The petrological characteristics described here can be readily observed and enable identification of mixing events in other recent eruption episodes. 相似文献
