PRENDERGAST A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the Australian National University. January 1987. Canberra, Australia. i STATEMENT This thesis describes my own work which included collaboration with Dr N .. E. Stone (Taxonomy Unit, R .. S ..

Lazarides (Australian National Herbarium, c .. s .. r .. R ..

Postgraduate Scholarship. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My time in the Taxonomy Unit has been a happy one: I could not have asked for better supervision for my project or for a more congenial atmosphere in which to work. To Dr. Paul Hattersley, for his help, advice, encouragement and friendship, I owe a lot more than can be said in just a few words: but, Paul, thanks very much! To Mr. Les Watson I owe as much for his own support and guidance, and for many discussions on things often psittacaceous as well as graminaceous! Dr. Nancy Stone was a kind teacher in many days of enzyme assays and Chris Frylink a great help and friend both in and out of the lab •• Further thanks go to Mike Lazarides (Australian National Herbarium, c.s.I.R.O.) for identifying many grass specimens and for unpublished data on infrageneric groups in Eragrostis; Dr.

    50 Seniors 50 Stories – Digital Edition

    5050 stories.seniors. 5050 stories.seniors. Acknowledgements Firstly, COTA NT would like to acknowledge and thank all the story tellers we spoke with for sharing an insight into what the Territory means to them. We hope you enjoyed telling your stories as much as we have enjoyed reading them. We would also like to thank members of our Board, staff and volunteer team for sharing their stories too – we have a very diverse and inspiring family! And we thank those who gave their time to collect the stories, especially Fran Smith for her professionalism, hard work and dedication to the project. Supported by the Northern Territory Government through the Northern Territory History Grants Program of the Department of Tourism, Sport and Culture. Copyright 2019 © Council on the Ageing (Northern Territory) Inc. Also known as COTA NT Foreword COTA NT wanted to mark 50 years of operations in the Northern Territory by celebrating some of the seniors it works to support. We could not think of a better way to do it than to collect 50 stories from our seniors throughout the Northern Territory and share them with you. “50 Seniors, 50 Stories” offers an insight into NT seniors’ lives: their thoughts, their histories and how they enjoy the lifestyle of the Territory. I found reading the stories enthralling and I know you will too. We have many more stories to share – so we might even produce a second edition! We tried to gather stories from every region, but realised that most of our storytellers had lived in many parts of the Territory, and experienced each region's unique landscape and hospitality.
  • The Spatial and Temporal Distribution of Lightning Strikes and Their Relationship with Vegetation Type, Elevation, and Fire Scars in the Northern Territory

    The Spatial and Temporal Distribution of Lightning Strikes and Their Relationship with Vegetation Type, Elevation, and Fire Scars in the Northern Territory

    1APRIL 2007 K ILINC AND BERINGER 1161 The Spatial and Temporal Distribution of Lightning Strikes and Their Relationship with Vegetation Type, Elevation, and Fire Scars in the Northern Territory MUSA KILINC AND JASON BERINGER School of Geography and Environmental Science, Monash University, Victoria, Australia (Manuscript received 17 October 2005, in final form 3 July 2006) ABSTRACT In this paper the authors explore the spatial and temporal patterns of lightning strikes in northern Australia for the first time. In particular, the possible relationships between lightning strikes and elevation, vegetation type, and fire scars (burned areas) are examined. Lightning data provided by the Bureau of Meteorology were analyzed for a 6-yr period (1998–2003) over the northern, southern, and coastal regions of the Northern Territory (NT) through the use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) to determine the spatial and temporal characteristics of lightning strikes. It was determined that the highest densities of lightning strikes occurred during the monsoon transitional period (dry to wet) and during the active monsoon periods, when atmospheric moisture is highest. For the period of this study, lightning was far more prevalent over the northern region (1.21 strikes per km2 yrϪ1) than over the southern (0.58 strikes per km2 yrϪ1) and coastal regions (0.71 strikes per km2 yrϪ1). Differences in vegetation cover were suggested to influence the lightning distribution over the northern region of the NT, but no relationship was found in the southern region. Lightning strikes in the southern region showed a positive relationship with elevations above 800 m, but no relationship was found in the northern region, which could be due to the low-lying topography of the area.
