The aim of this report was to discuss the mana...

This paper explains how routinely collected data can be used to examine the emergency department attendances of Victorian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. The data reported in the Victorian Emergency Minimum Dataset (VEMD) for the 2006/2007 financial year were analysed. The presentations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and non-Aboriginal people were compared in terms of ag...

This dissertation investigates negative or-positive patterns and the behavioral stability of cross-strait relations with a time-series analysis. It aims to clarify the impacts of these four factors in cross-strait relations: the Cold War legacy, the Chinese Civil War legacy, economic interdependence, and Taiwanese domestic politics. The key findings are as follows. First, most factors suggested...

A coupled biological–physical box model is developed to investigate the seasonal and interannual variability of marine plankton in strongly estuarine systems such as the semi-enclosed estuary of the Strait of Georgia and Juan de Fuca Strait on the west coast of Canada. The estuarine circulation not only supplies nutrients to the euphotic layer but also transports plankton between the straits, c...

Using the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer sensor (AMSR-E), winter (October to May) sea ice area flux is estimated for the main channels of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, Baffin Bay and Fram Strait. The transport through Fram Strait is estimated at 533,000 km 2 and 635,000 km 2 for the winter of 2002/03 and 2003/04 which is below the 24-year average of 754,000 km 2 obtained by Kwok et a...

In recent decades, the ecological condition is said to be deteriorating in the area of the Väike Strait in the West Estonian Archipelago. The strait has been closed by a 3 km-long road dam since 1896 and according to widespread opinion, as no water exchange between the Gulf of Riga and the Väinameri Sea occurs through this strait, the existence of the dam should be the main reason for those adv...
