Historical Earthquakes in Western Australia Kevin Mccue Australian Seismological Centre, Canberra ACT
Historical Earthquakes in Western Australia Kevin McCue Australian Seismological Centre, Canberra ACT. Abstract This paper is a tabulation and description of some earthquakes and tsunamis in Western Australia that occurred before the first modern short-period seismograph installation at Watheroo in 1958. The purpose of investigating these historical earthquakes is to better assess the relative earthquake hazard facing the State than would be obtained using just data from the post–modern instrumental period. This study supplements the earlier extensive historical investigation of Everingham and Tilbury (1972). It was made possible by the Australian National library project, TROVE, to scan and make available on-line Australian newspapers published before 1954. The West Australian newspaper commenced publication in Perth in 1833. Western Australia is rather large with a sparsely distributed population, most of the people live along the coast. When an earthquake is felt in several places it would indicate a larger magnitude than one in say Victoria felt at a similar number of sites. Both large interplate and local intraplate earthquakes are felt in the north-west and sometimes it is difficult to identify the source because not all major historical earthquakes on the plate boundary are tabulated by the ISC or USGS. An earthquake on 29 April 1936 is a good example, local or distant source? An interesting feature of the large earthquakes in WA is their apparent spatial and temporal migration, the latter alluded to by Everingham and Tilbury (1972). One could deduce that the seismicity rate changed before the major earthquake in 1906 offshore the central west coast of WA. -

Contents 1. Introduction 2. Historical background 3. Root causes of the conflict in West Papua 4. The sources of the Indonesian Government’s power in West Papua 5. Armed resistance to Indonesian rule in West Papua 6. Contemporary nonviolent struggle in West Papua 7. Ways forward 8. Conclusion Acknowledgements Glossary Bibliography Biographical Sketch Summary A nonviolent struggle for self-determination has been occurring in West Papua, an Indonesian colony located on the Western rim of the Pacific. A previous Dutch colonial outpost that Indonesia took control of in 1963, West Papua has been the scene of one of the most protracted, complex, and volatile conflicts in the Pacific. The nonviolent struggle in West Papua has rarely been noticed or analyzed in depth by West Papuan scholars whose inquiries have focused on conventional politicking and armed resistance. Nor has nonviolent struggle in West Papua been investigated by those conducting research into the dynamics of nonviolent action. The nonviolent struggle for self- determination in West Papua has also received little sustained analytical attention from domesticUNESCO Indonesia media outlets adding – to widespreadEOLSS Indonesian ignorance about the causes of West Papuan grievances. A banning on foreign journalists traveling to West Papua has further contributed to West Papua’s marginalization in the international press. -

China will work with Pacific island countries to brave the wind and waves and set sail for a brighter future of our relations. -Chinese President Xi, November 2018 Overview Melanesia is a Matrix Game designed to introduce players to the Melanesia region, its major actors and its most important dynamics. It is the second title in a series of Matrix Games on Oceania using the same core rules as the previous title, Micronesia. An overview of the Melanesia region follows in the next section (references to the game Melanesia will be italicized). The major actors represented in the game (either as player countries or through game design) are the Melanesian minor powers: the Autonomous Region of Bougainville, Fiji, New Caledonia, Papua New Guinea (PNG), the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, and West Papua; and the major regional powers: Australia, China, Indonesia, New Zealand, Taiwan, and the United States. -
Three-Dimensional Cartesian Co-Ordinates of Part of the Australian Geodetic Network by the Use of Local Astronomic Vector Systems
THREE-DIMENSIONAL CARTESIAN CO-ORDINATES OF PART OF THE AUSTRALIAN GEODETIC NETWORK BY THE USE OF LOCAL ASTRONOMIC VECTOR SYSTEMS. by A. STOLZ A thesis submitted as part requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, to the University of New South Wales. July, 1972 School of Surveying, Kensington, SYDNEY PRINTED AND BOUND BY RM PRINTING PTY LTD SYDNEY UNIVERSITY OF N.S.W. S6B53 -3. APR. 7 3 LIBRARY ■ ■■ ----------- ■ __________ - This is to certify that this thesis has not been submitted for a higher degree to any other University or Institution. A. STOLZ. "Perhaps in another world we may gain other insights into the nature of space which at present are unattainable to us. Until then we must consider geometry of equal rank3 not with arithmetic which is purely logical3 but with mechanics which is empirical." C. F. Gauss, 1817. ii SUMMARY The problem of terrestrial point co-ordination using the common geodetic measurements of directions, zenith distances, lengths, azimuths, latitudes, longitudes, levelled differences in elevation and gravity readings is analysed. Theoretical solutions are posed employing the data pertaining specifically to either the earth's gravity field or the atmosphere. However, because the curvature parameters defining the gravity field cannot at present be determined to sufficient accuracy and those defining the atmosphere cannot be measured at all, a combined model is formulated. Assuming the gravitational field to be suitably described by a Newtonian system and that adequate correction is possible for the measurements which are influenced by refraction, a Euclidean metric is selected for the complete definition of the solution. -

There we must hope that they may have found some route less formidable than the others have shown themselves on first acquaintance. The idea that the slopes of the mountain towards the Tibetan plateau might, as elsewhere, be much less steep than towards the south is evidently wrong; they could not be much steeper than they are. The difficulties are indeed formidable ; but the " Fading Hopes " of the Times9 poster on September 10 are not yet those of the Mount Everest Committee, still less of the expedition in the field, whose duty this year was to reconnoitre all the approaches to the mountain, but not to spend time early in the season on any one route until they had satisfied themselves that there was none easier that had been overlooked. -

Texila International Journal of Management Special Edition Dec 2019 Investigating Project Management Practices in the NSW Public Sector Article by Roy Chikwem Texila American University E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This paper reviews the position of public-funded projects and project management practices within the New South Wales (NSW) public sector in Australia. It focuses on evaluating project delivery; however, identifies project management challenges while identifying strategies for overcoming these hurdles in the NSW public sector. This paper will discuss the process of project implementation within the NSW government. It will identify and examine project management related issues that may occur during the project implementation of public-funded projects within the NSW government. It will discuss the measures, procedures, and strategies employed to overcome these challenges and scrutinize the effectiveness of these measures to achieve the project goals. It will conclude with recommendations on a way forward to increase project performance, implementing project management best practices and measuring project efficiency within the NSW government. However, this paper is based on a review of a single government department, the NSW Department of Communities and Justice; it will explore concepts that can provide guidance and can be applied more broadly on other public-funded project and within other government agencies. Keywords: NSW Government, NSW Public Sector, Project Management, Project Manager Introduction The nature of project management can be defined as the achievement of project objectives through people and involving the organization, planning and control of resources assigned to the project (Harrison 2017). Project management is the practice of initiating, planning, executing, controlling, and closing the work of a team to achieve specific goals and meet specific success criteria at the specified time (Phillips 2003).
