Towards SMOS validation in south-eastern Australia
The upcoming Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission of the European Space Agency will be the first satellite dedicated to the measurement of soil moisture. It will measure soil moisture for the top 5 cm at a spatial resolution of 35 to 50 km. Comparison of the soil moisture data from SMOS with insitu monitoring network measurements across areas the size of a SMOS footprint will play a ...
متن کاملWild Dogma II: The Role And Implications Of Wild Dogma For Wild Dog Management In Australia
The studies of Allen (2011) and Allen et al. (2011) recently examined the methodology underpinning claims that dingoes provide net benefits to biodiversity by suppressing foxes and cats. They found most studies to have design flaws and/or observational methods that preclude valid interpretations from the data, describing most of the current literature as ‘wild dogma’. In this short supplement, ...
متن کاملNatural mortality of Trachurus novaezelandiae and their size selection by purse seines off south-eastern Australia
The natural mortality (M) and purse-seine catchability and selectivity were estimated for Trachurus novaezelandiae, Richardson, 1843 (yellowtail scad)-a small inshore pelagic species harvested off south-eastern Australia. Hazard functions were applied to two decades of data describing catches (mostly stable at a mean +- SE of 315 +- 14 t p.a.) and effort (declining from a maximum of 2289 to 642...
متن کاملInterspecific and Geographic Variation in the Diets of Sympatric Carnivores: Dingoes/Wild Dogs and Red Foxes in South-Eastern Australia
Dingoes/wild dogs (Canis dingo/familiaris) and red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) are widespread carnivores in southern Australia and are controlled to reduce predation on domestic livestock and native fauna. We used the occurrence of food items in 5875 dingo/wild dog scats and 11,569 fox scats to evaluate interspecific and geographic differences in the diets of these species within nine regions of Vict...
متن کاملEvaluating the Exterra Termite Interception and Baiting System in Australia
The Exterra Termite Interception and Baiting System (Ensystex Inc., Fayetteville, NC) was evaluated in a field experiment near Townsville, Australia. Cellulose-acetate powder containing either 0.05% weight/weight (w/w) or 0.25% w/w chlorfluazuron (Requiem) was tested for its efficacy in eradicating colonies of the mound-building subterranean termite Coptotermes acinaciformis (Froggatt). Thirt...
