A Century of Storms, Fire, Flood and Drought in New South Wales, Bureau Of
The Australian Bureau of Meteorology celebrated its centenary as a Commonwealth Government Agency in 2008. It was established by the Meteorology Act 1906 and commenced operation as a national organisation on 1 January 1908 through the consoli- dation of the separate Colonial/State Meteorological Services. The Bureau is an integrated scientific monitoring, research and service organisation responsible for observing, understanding and predicting the behaviour of Australia’s weather and climate and for providing a wide range of meteorological, hydrological and oceanographic information, forecasting and warning services. The century-long history of the Bureau and of Australian meteorology is the history of the nation – from the Federation Drought to the great floods of 1955, the Black Friday and Ash Wednesday bushfires, the 1974 devastation of Darwin by cyclone Tracy and Australia’s costliest natural disaster, the Sydney hailstorm of April 1999. It is a story of round-the-clock data collection by tens of thousands of dedicated volunteers in far-flung observing sites, of the acclaimed weather support of the RAAF Meteorological Service for southwest Pacific operations through World War II and of the vital role of the post-war civilian Bureau in the remarkable safety record of Australian civil aviation. And it is a story of outstanding scientific and technological innovation and international leadership in one of the most inherently international of all fields of science and human endeavour. Although headquartered in Melbourne, the Bureau has epitomised the successful working of the Commonwealth with a strong operational presence in every State capital and a strong sense of identity with both its State and its national functions and responsibilities.

Mt Kosciuszko”
The known and less familiar history of the naming of “Mt Kosciuszko” Andrzej S. Kozek1 The highest peak on the continental Australia bears the name “Mt Kosciuszko” and we know this from our time in primary school. We as well remember that it was discovered and named by the Polish traveller and explorer, Paul Edmund de Strzelecki. Polish people consider it a magnificent monument to Tadeusz Kosciuszko. However, the history of its naming along with many related controversies are less familiar and lead to dissemination of incorrect information both in Poland and in Australia. Hence, to fill the gap, it is necessary to gather the facts in one publication equipped with references to the relevant historical resources. Key terms: Mt Kosciuszko, Tadeusz Kosciuszko, Kosciuszko's Will, Paul Edmund Strzelecki, Strzelecki, Australia, Aborigines, equality under the law, freedom, democracy. Macarthur and Strzelecki’s Expedition Paul Edmund Strzelecki (1797-1873) arrived in Australia in April 1839, as one of four passengers on the merchant ship Justine carrying potatoes and barley [P1, p. 57]. Half a century had already passed since the British flotilla under the command of Governor Arthur Phillip had landed in Australia on the shores of the Bay, which he named Sydney Harbour, and nearly 70 years since James Cook assimilated Australia into the British Empire. Strzelecki was a passionate of geology, a new discipline at the time, dealing with minerals and the wealth of the earth, and he was an expert in this field. His set goal for visiting Australia was to study Australia’s geology, or at least that of it’s eastern part, which no one had yet done systematically.
