  • Western Australia December 2008 Monthly Weather Review Western Australia December 2008
    Monthly Weather Review Western Australia December 2008 Monthly Weather Review Western Australia December 2008 The Monthly Weather Review - Western Australia is produced twelve times each year by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology's Western Australia Climate Services Centre. It is intended to provide a concise but informative overview of the temperatures, rainfall and significant weather events in Western Australia for the month. To keep the Monthly Weather Review as timely as possible, much of the information is based on electronic reports. Although every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of these reports, the results can be considered only preliminary until complete quality control procedures have been carried out. Major discrepancies will be noted in later issues. We are keen to ensure that the Monthly Weather Review is appropriate to the needs of its readers. If you have any comments or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact us: By mail Western Australia Climate Services Centre Bureau of Meteorology PO Box 1370 WEST PERTH WA 6872 AUSTRALIA By telephone (08) 9263 2222 By email [email protected] You may also wish to visit the Bureau's home page, http://www.bom.gov.au. Units of measurement Except where noted, temperature is given in degrees Celsius (°C), rainfall in millimetres (mm), and wind speed in kilometres per hour (km/h). Observation times and periods Each station in Western Australia makes its main observation for the day at 9 am local time. At this time, the precipitation over the past 24 hours is determined, and maximum and minimum thermometers are also read and reset.

  • Birds of the Kimberley Division, Western Australia
    WESTERN AUSTRALIAN MUSEUM SPECIAL PUBLICATION No.ll Birds of the Kimberley Division, Western Australia by G.M. Slorr Perth 1980 World List Abbreviation: Spec. PubIs West. Aust. Mus. ISBN 0724481389 ISSN 0083 873X Cover: A Comb-crested Jacana drawn by Gaye Roberts. Published by the Western Australian Museum, Francis Street, Perth 6000, Western Australia. Phone 328 4411. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Introduction 7 List of Birds .................................... .. 9 Gazetteer ................................. .. 101 Index 105 5 INTRODUCTION Serventy and Whittell's excellent Birds of Western Australia (first published in 1948) excluded the many species found in Western Australia only in the Kimberley Division. The far north of the State thus remained the last terra incognita in Australia. The present paper fills this gap by providing informa­ tion on the distribution, ecological status, relative abundance, habitat preferences, movements and breeding season of Kimberley birds. Coverage is much the same as in my List of Northern Territory birds (1967, Spec. PubIs West. Aust. Mus. no. 4), List of Queensland birds (1973, Spec. PubIs West. Aust. Mus. no. 5) and Birds of the Northern Territory (1977, Spec. PubIs West. Aust. Mus. no. 7). An innovation is data on clutch size. The area covered by this paper is the Kimberley Land Division (Le. that part of Western Australia north of lat. 19°30'S) and the seas and islands of the adjacent continental shelf, including specks of land, such as Ashmore Reef, that are administered by the Commonwealth of Australia. Distribution is often given in climatic as well as geographic terms by referring to the subhumid zone (mean annual rainfall 100-150 cm), semiarid zone (50-100 cm) or arid zone (less than 50 cm).
