Impact of biting midges on residential property values in Hervey Bay, Queensland, Australia.
Biting midges (Culicoides spp.) are an important environmental health issue in Hervey Bay, an area of rapid population growth in Australia. It is also the gateway to a World Heritage area (Great Sandy Strait) and a destination for tourists.

متن کاملPlanning Scenarios for the Growth of Hervey Bay
This paper develops a methodology for investigating the question of: how can demographic (socio-economic) and land-use (physical and environmental) information models may be used to efficiently plan for future urban growth? A case study approach is undertaken using what-if planning scenarios for a rapidly growing coastal area in Australia called Hervey Bay. The town and surrounding area require...
متن کاملAssessing water renewal time scales for marine environments from three-dimensional modelling: A case study for Hervey Bay, Australia
We apply the three-dimensional COupled Hydrodynamical Ecological model for REgioNal Shelf Seas (COHERENS) to compute water renewal time scales for Hervey Bay, a large coastal embayment situated off the central eastern coast of Australia. Water renewal time scales are not directly observable but are derived indirectly from computational studies. Improved knowledge of these time scales assists in...

متن کاملScreening of Oomycete Fungi for Their Potential Role in Reducing the Biting Midge (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) Larval Populations in Hervey Bay, Queensland, Australia
Biting midges are globally distributed pests causing significant economic losses and transmitting arbovirus diseases to both animals and humans. Current biological and chemical control strategies for biting midge target destruction of adult forms, but strategies directed at immature stages of the insect have yet to be explored in Australia. In the present study, coastal waters of Hervey Bay reg...
