All views and opinions expressed therein remain the sole responsibility of the author, and do not necessarily represent those of the Faculty. ABSTRACT In this century, increasing carbon dioxide anthropogenic concentration in the atmosphere becomes an important issue which causes environmental problems such as global warming and ocean acidification. Oceans are known to act as a buffer in the ocean acidification. The key marine organisms such as fish and coral reef could diminish due to the difficulty to survive and sustain because of ocean acidification. Bali, an island in Indonesia has a good quality of coral cover can also be affected by ocean acidification. Monitoring the Sea Surface Total Alkalinity would help us to know how far our ocean can survive from additional acid due to ocean acidification. It could give us a better understanding of the correlation between ocean acidification and ecological condition.

  • Greek Tragedy Rules II

GREEK TRAGEDY ATATURK: The Greco-Turkish War, 1919-1922 UNARMED GOLIATH: The Italian Invasion of Greece, 1940-1941 Number of Players: Complexity: Moderate (4 out of 9) Learning Time: 30 minutes Playing Time: 3-8 hours Solitaire: High (7 of 9) a RICHARD H. BERG Game Design BNA Rules 1 ©Richard Berg, 1995 (1.0) INTRODUCTION A Greek Tragedy covers Greece’s two major wars after WWI: her attempt to seize the Ionian/western portion of Turkey, 1919-22 - the Ataturk game - and the woefully sorry invasion of Greece by Italy during WW II, Unarmed Goliath. In the Gameplayers series, the emphasis is on accessibility and playability, with as much historical flavor as we can muster. Given a choice between playability and historicity, we have tended to “err” on the side of the former. Each campaign has some of its own, specific rules; these are given in that campaign’s Scenario Book. Unless stated otherwise, the rules in this book apply top both campaigns. (2.0) COMPONENTS The game includes the following items: 2 22”x34” game maps ? sheet of combat counters (large) 1 sheet of informational markers (small) 1 Rules Book 2 Scenario Booklets 2 Charts & Tables Cards 1 ten-sided die (2.1) THE MAPS The gamemaps are overlayed with a grid of hexagons - hexes - which are used to regulate movement. The various types of terrain represented are discussed in the rules, below. The map of Greece is used for the Unarmed Goliath scenario; the map of Turkey for Ataturk. The two maps do link up; not that we provide any reason to do so.

  • The Need for a New Naval History of the First World War James Goldrick
    Corbett Paper No 7 The need for a New Naval History of The First World War James Goldrick The Corbett Centre for Maritime Policy Studies November 2011 The need for a New Naval History of the First World War James Goldrick Key Points . The history of naval operations in the First World War urgently requires re- examination. With the fast approaching centenary, it will be important that the story of the war at sea be recognised as profoundly significant for the course and outcome of the conflict. There is a risk that popular fascination for the bloody campaign on the Western Front will conceal the reality that the Great War was also a maritime and global conflict. We understand less of 1914-1918 at sea than we do of the war on land. Ironically, we also understand less about the period than we do for the naval wars of 1793-1815. Research over the last few decades has completely revised our understanding of many aspects of naval operations. That work needs to be synthesized and applied to the conduct of the naval war as a whole. There are important parallels with the present day for modern maritime strategy and operations in the challenges that navies faced in exercising sea power effectively within a globalised world. Gaining a much better understanding of the issues of 1914-1918 may help cast light on some of the complex problems that navies must now master. James Goldrick is a Rear Admiral in the Royal Australian Navy and currently serving as Commander of the Australian Defence College.

  • Updating the Seabird Fauna of Jakarta Bay, Indonesia
    Tirtaningtyas & Yordan: Seabirds of Jakarta Bay, Indonesia, update 11 UPDATING THE SEABIRD FAUNA OF JAKARTA BAY, INDONESIA FRANSISCA N. TIRTANINGTYAS¹ & KHALEB YORDAN² ¹ Burung Laut Indonesia, Depok, East Java 16421, Indonesia ([email protected]) ² Jakarta Birder, Jl. Betung 1/161, Pondok Bambu, East Jakarta 13430, Indonesia Received 17 August 2016, accepted 20 October 2016 ABSTRACT TIRTANINGTYAS, F.N. & YORDAN, K. 2017. Updating the seabird fauna of Jakarta Bay, Indonesia. Marine Ornithology 45: 11–16. Jakarta Bay, with an area of about 490 km2, is located at the edge of the Sunda Straits between Java and Sumatra, positioned on the Java coast between the capes of Tanjung Pasir in the west and Tanjung Karawang in the east. Its marine avifauna has been little studied. The ecology of the area is under threat owing to 1) Jakarta’s Governor Regulation No. 121/2012 zoning the northern coastal area of Jakarta for development through the creation of new islands or reclamation; 2) the condition of Jakarta’s rivers, which are becoming more heavily polluted from increasing domestic and industrial waste flowing into the bay; and 3) other factors such as incidental take. Because of these factors, it is useful to update knowledge of the seabird fauna of Jakarta Bay, part of the East Asian–Australasian Flyway. In 2011–2014 we conducted surveys to quantify seabird occurrence in the area. We identified 18 seabird species, 13 of which were new records for Jakarta Bay; more detailed information is presented for Christmas Island Frigatebird Fregata andrewsi. To better protect Jakarta Bay and its wildlife, regular monitoring is strongly recommended, and such monitoring is best conducted in cooperation with the staff of local government, local people, local non-governmental organization personnel and birdwatchers.

During this period, the armaments industry underwent a radical transformation, moving from being based on public-owned arsenals and yards to being based on private firms – the system of military procurement prevalent today.

  • Waves of Destruction in the East Indies: the Wichmann Catalogue of Earthquakes and Tsunami in the Indonesian Region from 1538 to 1877
    Downloaded from http://sp.lyellcollection.org/ by guest on May 24, 2016 Waves of destruction in the East Indies: the Wichmann catalogue of earthquakes and tsunami in the Indonesian region from 1538 to 1877 RON HARRIS1* & JONATHAN MAJOR1,2 1Department of Geological Sciences, Brigham Young University, Provo, UT 84602–4606, USA 2Present address: Bureau of Economic Geology, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX 78758, USA *Corresponding author (e-mail: [email protected]) Abstract: The two volumes of Arthur Wichmann’s Die Erdbeben Des Indischen Archipels [The Earthquakes of the Indian Archipelago] (1918 and 1922) document 61 regional earthquakes and 36 tsunamis between 1538 and 1877 in the Indonesian region. The largest and best documented are the events of 1770 and 1859 in the Molucca Sea region, of 1629, 1774 and 1852 in the Banda Sea region, the 1820 event in Makassar, the 1857 event in Dili, Timor, the 1815 event in Bali and Lom- bok, the events of 1699, 1771, 1780, 1815, 1848 and 1852 in Java, and the events of 1797, 1818, 1833 and 1861 in Sumatra. Most of these events caused damage over a broad region, and are asso- ciated with years of temporal and spatial clustering of earthquakes. The earthquakes left many cit- ies in ‘rubble heaps’. Some events spawned tsunamis with run-up heights .15 m that swept many coastal villages away. 2004 marked the recurrence of some of these events in western Indonesia. However, there has not been a major shallow earthquake (M ≥ 8) in Java and eastern Indonesia for the past 160 years.

Thesis submitted for Philosophy Doctor degree The University of Saint Andrews Maritime Studies 1996 EC A UNI L/ rJ ý t\ jxý DF, ÄNý Jorge Ortiz-Sotelo Peru and the British Naval Station ABSTRACT The protection of British interests in the Pacific was the basic reason to detach a number of Royal Navy's vessels to that Ocean during the Nineteenth Century. There were several British interests in the area, and an assorted number of Britons established in Spanish America since the beginning of the struggle for Independence. Amongst them, merchants was perhaps the most important and influential group, pressing on their government for protection to their trade. As soon as independence reached the western coast of America, a new space was created for British presence. First Valparaiso and afterwards Callao, British merchants were soon firmly established in that part of South America. As had happened in the Atlantic coast, their claims for protection were attended by the British government through the Pacific Squadron, under the flag of the Commander-in-Chief of the South American Station, until 1837, when it was raised to a separate Station.

  • I Rapporti Della Polonia Con L'italia Risalgono Alla Nascita Stessa Dello Stato Polacco Nel X Secolo E Alla Scelta Allora Operata Del Cristianesimo Occi - Dentale
    Tra Polonia e Italia I rapporti della Polonia con l'Italia risalgono alla nascita stessa dello Stato polacco nel X secolo e alla scelta allora operata del cristianesimo occi - dentale. Il latino divenne lingua ufficiale dello stato e l'Italia meta di pel - legrinaggi e di studi. Nel Rinascimento i contatti con l’Italia raggiunsero il loro apice e numerosi letterati, architetti, artisti italiani prestarono la loro opera alla corte reale di Cracovia e alle corti aristocratiche. L’astronomo Copernico, colloquio con Dio . Tra i numerosi giovani della Natio polona che frequenta - rono gli atenei italiani figu - rano: Nicolò Copernico (1473-1543); Jan Kochanow - ski (1530-1584), il più grande poeta del Rinascimento po - lacco, e Maciej Sarbiewski (1595-1640), considerato uno dei massimi poeti in lingua la - tina nell’Europa barocca. Olio su tela di Jan Matejko (1838-1893), Museo dell’Università Jagellonica, Cracovia. Bona Sforza (1494 - 1557), figlia di Gian Gale - azzo Sforza, duca di Milano; duchessa di Bari; moglie del re di Polonia, Sigismondo I (1467- 1548); regina di Polonia. Fu portatrice delle idee e dello spirito umanistico e rinascimentale in Po - lonia, favorì la diffusione dell’arte italiana, dei co - stumi e della cucina. Grazie alla sua presenza a Cracovia le relazioni tra la Polonia e l’Italia si sono notevolmente allargate. Incisione di Niccolò Nelli del 1568, Civica Raccolta delle Stampe “Achille Bertarelli”, Milano. Veduta del castello reale di Varsavia dal sobborgo di Praga . La presenza di artisti italiani si mantiene anche sotto il regno dell’ultimo re di Polonia, Stanisław August Poniatowski, sul trono dal 1764 al 1795.

  • Ship Building and Repairing in Italy, 1861-1913: National and Regional Time Series

The authors alone are responsible for the material presented here. SHIP BUILDING AND REPAIRING IN ITALY, 1861-1913: NATIONAL AND REGIONAL TIME SERIES Abstract This paper presents the first comprehensive national and regional time-series estimates for ship building and repairing in post-Unification Italy. The path of the national aggregate differs markedly from the extant series, which cover merchant new-construction alone. The regional estimates point to considerable concentration: Liguria accounted for more than half the product, and Campania for almost another quarter. In Liguria, too, this sector represented up to a quarter of total industrial production; elsewhere, and nationally, it was barely significant. L'INDUSTRIA CANTIERISTICA IN ITALIA, 1861-1913: SERIE NAZIONALI E REGIONALI Sommario Questo saggio presenta le prime stime della produzione complessiva dell'industria cantieristica nell'Italia post-Unitaria, sia nazionali, sia regionali.
