AHP 18 IMPORTANT NOTICE This edition of Notices to Mariners includes all significant information affecting AHS products which the AHS has become aware of since the last edition. All reasonable efforts have been made to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the information, including third party information, on which these updates are based. The AHS regards third parties from which it receives information as reliable, however the AHS cannot verify all such information and errors may therefore exist. The AHS does not accept liability for errors in third party information. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS The substance of these notices should be inserted on the charts affected. Bearings are referred to the true compass and are reckoned clockwise from North; those relating to lights are given as seen by an observer from seaward. Positions quoted in permanent notices relate to the horizontal datum for the chart(s). When preliminary or temporary notices affect multiple charts, positions will be provided in relation to only one horizontal datum and that datum will be specified. When the multiple charts do not have a common horizontal datum, mariners will be required to adjust the position(s) for those charts not on the specified datum. The range quoted for a light is its nominal range. Depths are with reference to the chart datum of each chart. Heights are above mean high water springs or mean higher high water, as appropriate. The capital letter (P) or (T) after the number of any notice denotes a preliminary or temporary notice respectively, which are contained separately at the end of the permanent notices. A star (*) adjacent to the number of a notice indicates that the notice is based on original information. REPORTING OF DANGERS Mariners are particularly requested to notify the AUSTRALIAN HYDROGRAPHIC SERVICE, Locked Bag 8801 Wollongong, NSW 2500 (Fax 02-4223 6599, e-mail [email protected] or, alternatively by filling in and submitting the Hydrographic Notes forms located on the web site – www.hydro.gov.au), immediately on the discovery of new dangers or suspected dangers to navigation. For changes or defects in aids to navigation notify AusSAR (Fax 02-6230 6868 or email [email protected]). AUTHORISED USE Copies of Australian notices are available free of charge from the Australian Hydrographic Service (AHS) website (www.hydro.gov.au) and through the eNotices (email) service (www.hydro.gov.au/enotices/enotices.htm). Individual Notices may be copied for the purpose of inserting Notice substance on official charts and publications. Paper copies may be printed by chart agents and distributed to customers on a cost recovery basis. Participating chart agents are listed on the AHS website as providing a 'Paper Notices to Mariners’ service (www.hydro.gov.au/prodserv/distributors/distributors.htm). Copies of the notices may not be sold for profit without prior written agreement. NUMERICAL INDEX OF NOTICES TO MARINERS Edition No 23 Notices Aus Chart, INT Chart 1112.....................

History and environment Barry Wilson Research Associate, Department of Aquatic Zoology, Western Australian Museum, Locked Bag 49, Welshpool DC, Western Australia 6986, Australia. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT – The remote tropical Kimberley region of Western Australia is introduced, its physical marine environment, habitats and classifi cation into bioregions are described, and its marine science history is summarised. An introduction to the ongoing Western Australian Museum marine biological survey program and its objectives are also provided. The geology, metocean conditions and climate of the region are summarised. A primary division of the Kimberley coastline is noted with a northern section dominated by Proterozoic meta-sedimentary and igneous rocks (Kimberley and Bonaparte Gulf Bioregions) and a southern section dominated by Mesozoic and Cainozoic sedimentary rocks (King Sound and Canning Bioregions). In the former section inner shelf seabed sediments overlying the inundated Yampi Plateau are principally of terrestrial origin while in the Canning Bioregion they are principally marine carbonates. On the middle and outer shelf (Oceanic Shoals and North West Shelf Bioregions) sediments are primarily marine carbonates. Along the shelf margin the water is clear and oligotrophic and subject to the Indonesian Through Flow current that originates in the western Pacifi c. The coastal zone is macrotidal, currents are predominantly tide driven and the coastal water is turbid and probably nutrient rich. These environmental differences and the different connectivity regimes account for distinctive offshore and coastal reef communities. KEYWORDS: marine flora, marine fauna, habitats, geology, ocean currents, climate, species distributions, biogeographic affi nities, IMCRA Bioregions, science history INTRODUCTION traditional lands in their care under the Healthy The Kimberley is the northernmost part Country program.

    Rec. West. Aust. M"... Suppl. No. 44.1993 Part 1 Historical background, description of the physical environments of Ashmore Reef and eartier Island and notes on exploited species P.F. Berry* Abstract Ashrnore Reef (12°17'S, 123°02'E) and nearby Cartier Island (l2°32'S, 123°33'E) are located on tl.e north-western extremity of the Sahul Shelf. They are approximately 350 km off the Kimberley coast of Australia and 145 km from Roti, Indonesia. The morphology and physical environments of the two reef systems are briefly described as a background to faunal inventories presented in Parts 2-7 ofthis publication. Ashrnore Reef (approximately 26 km long and 14 km wide) is similar in general shape and morphology to other shelf-edge atolls off the north-western coast of Australia, but because of the larger breaks in the reef there is no impounding of water in the lagoon on outgoing tides as at the Rowley Shoals and to a lesser extent, Scott Reef. There are three vegetated islets on Ashmore Reef. Cartier Island, an unvegetated sand cay, is surrounded by an oval-shaped reef platform approximately 4.5 km long by 2.3 km wide. Mean sea surface temperatures range from approximately 24°C in July and August to 30°C between January and March. Spring and neap tidal ranges (semi-diurnal) are 4.7 m and 2.8 m respectively. Observations on species exploited in the traditional Indonesian fishery are recorded. These suggest that composition and abundance of exploited species at Ashmore Reef and Cartier Island reflect a higher level of fishing effort there than at Scott Reef and Rowley Shoals.

    Phylogeography of the reef fish Cephalopholis argus (Epinephelidae) indicates Pleistocene isolation across the indo-pacific barrier with contemporary overlap in the coral triangle Gaither et al. Gaither et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology 2011, 11:189 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/11/189 (1 July 2011) Gaither et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology 2011, 11:189 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/11/189 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Phylogeography of the reef fish Cephalopholis argus (Epinephelidae) indicates Pleistocene isolation across the indo-pacific barrier with contemporary overlap in the coral triangle Michelle R Gaither1*, Brian W Bowen1, Tiana-Rae Bordenave1, Luiz A Rocha2, Stephen J Newman3, Juan A Gomez4, Lynne van Herwerden4 and Matthew T Craig5 Abstract Background: The Coral Triangle (CT), bounded by the Philippines, the Malay Peninsula, and New Guinea, is the epicenter of marine biodiversity. Hypotheses that explain the source of this rich biodiversity include 1) the center of origin, 2) the center of accumulation, and 3) the region of overlap. Here we contribute to the debate with a phylogeographic survey of a widely distributed reef fish, the Peacock Grouper (Cephalopholis argus; Epinephelidae) at 21 locations (N = 550) using DNA sequence data from mtDNA cytochrome b and two nuclear introns (gonadotropin-releasing hormone and S7 ribosomal protein). Results: Population structure was significant (FST = 0.297, P < 0.001; FST = 0.078, P < 0.001; FST = 0.099, P < 0.001 for the three loci, respectively) among five regions: French Polynesia, the central-west Pacific (Line Islands to northeastern Australia), Indo-Pacific boundary (Bali and Rowley Shoals), eastern Indian Ocean (Cocos/Keeling and Christmas Island), and western Indian Ocean (Diego Garcia, Oman, and Seychelles).

Our oceans are distinctive and diverse, home to marine life found nowhere else. Our oceans support people’s livelihoods and the Australian lifestyle. They provide places for people to watch wildlife, dive and snorkel, go boating and fish. Importantly, they create jobs in industries like fishing and tourism, and are a source of food and energy. Establishing marine parks is recognised as one of the best ways to conserve and protect marine species and habitats. In 2012, the Australian Government established 40 new marine parks around the country (formally called Commonwealth marine reserves). This was a significant achievement, expanding the total coverage of Australia’s National Representative System of Marine Protected Areas to 3.3 million km2—some 36 per cent of our oceans. Individual marine parks have been carefully located to include representative examples of Australia’s marine habitats and features.
