Full textPrevious studies of an intermittent migratory oedema occurring in people living in the Central Queensland coastal areas of Woodbury, supported by skin testing and subsequent serology tests established that this problem was
possibly a gnathostomiasis. The problem was previously reported as occurring in an area north of the coastal town of Yeppoon in Central Queensland. It was described as a rapidly moving intermittent oedema lasting for periods between one week and six months.
A study of 96 people living in the Central Queensland area was carried out from 1992 to 1995, showing that the 'Woodbury Bug' is a migrating oedema occurring at irregular intervals over all areas of the body. The phenomenon
was not confined to people living in areas north of Yeppoon, but occurred in all areas of Central Queensland, mostly in the summer months with urticaria lasting from days to several weeks. Reoccurrence of the urticaria occurred
again in the summer months of January to April, every year or every second year, often lasting several years.
The physical findings in the study were remarkably consistent with those found in cases of gnathostomiasis. In contrast to previous serology testing, however, all gnathostome serology tests were negative. The lack of a history of eating raw meats or fish also contradicted the previous suggestion that this was gnathostomiasis. Serology testing for Strongyloides species was also
negative, and the physical findings eliminated Ancylostoma species as a possibility.
During the study it was established that many patients had contact with nest material of the brush turkey, Alectura lathami, a leafy material used as garden mulch. A Heterakid, found as a parasite in the brush turkey is suggested as a
cause of the 'Woodbury Bug'. This parasite could be treated using an anthelminthic, albendazole, or the condition known as the 'Woodbury Bug' could be controlled by avoiding any accidental ingestion of parasites when working with brush turkey nest material.

Full textYield decline following continuous cropping cycles in Central Queensland has been attributed to the declining soil nitrogen status. In this study an assessment of the level of nitrogen fixation was made to assist in the selection of potential ley pasture legumes for use in rotational systems to achieve sustainable cropping yields.
Twenty one winter and summer growing legumes were evaluated for nitrogen fixation in glasshouse trials in two seasons. Nitrogen fixation was determined using the hydrogen evolution technique (an instantaneous measure of fixation rate) in an artificial media trial and the 15N natural abundance technique (an integral measure of fixation) in a soil based trial.

Full textThe seasonal periodicity of hydrology, physical and chemical water quality parameters and phytoplanktonic assemblages was studied at two sites in a large tropical Australian riverine impoundment. This study, the first in the lower Fitzroy River at Rockhampton, occurred between August 1990 and November 1993. It covered extremes in riverine flow conditions including major flooding and drought.
The annual flow regime was characterized by major flows in the "wet" season (summer and autumn) and greatly reduced or no flow in the "dry" season of winter, spring and sometimes early summer. Consequently, the thermal regime at both of the study sites was divided into two phases. The first was a phase of water column heating in the late winter to early summer. Features of this heating phase were long term stratification with progressive epilimnetic deepening, high pH, regular occurrence of epilimnetic oxygen supersaturation and decreased or undetectable levels of oxidized nitrogen in the surface layer. Hypolimnetic anoxia was recorded late in this phase. The second, between substantial wet season inflows and late winter was characterized by nutrient rich inflows and water column cooling and mixing.
Distinct interannual differences occurred in the volume, source and timing of inflows and subsequent water chemistry. In 1991, conductivity, water clarity, filterable reactive phosphorus (FRP) and pH increased markedly following major flooding from northern tributaries, while oxidized nitrogen decreased. This was in marked contrast to the drier years of 1992 and 1993 where turbidity and oxidized nitrogen were higher during the initial post-flood period and conductivity and FRP were lower. Extremes of mostly abiogenic turbidity (range 1.6 to 159 NTU) were a feature of the light climate. Ratios of euphotic depth/mixing depth below 0.3 occurred in early 1992 and 1993.
Steep gradients in the physical and chemical environment were paralleled by variations in the phytoplankton. Algal biomass (as chlorophyll a) at Site 1, midstream opposite the water intake for the city of Rockhampton, ranged from 1.5 to 56.6 ug L-1. The vertical water column distribution of chlorophyll was variable with assemblages normally dominated by phytoflagellates and various species of cyanoprokaryotes. There was also higher relative abundance of chlorophyll a (reflecting increasing dominance of cyanoprokaryotes) in the latter half of the year and at the lower end of light availability. The specific vertical water column positioning with respect to light and temperature is shown for assemblages dominated by the genera Anabaena, Aphanizomenon and Cylindrospermopsis.
The most striking aspect of the phytoplankton was the long term dominance of cyanoprokaryotes and the species richness (particularly that of cyanoprokaryotes) when compared with the dearth of information to date on other tropical rivers. Seasonal successions were varied. Regularly occurring assemblages were cyanoprokaryotes (Oscillatoriales), euglenophytes or non-flagellated chlorophytes during flows followed by flagellated chlorophytes and then cyanoprokaryotes (Nostocales) during the dry season. Genera present indicated highly eutrophic conditions. Hierarchical agglomerative clustering of phytoplankton data and comparison with a principal components analysis of corresponding environmental data were used to demonstrate the linkage between steep environmental gradients and variation in the phytoplankton assemblage. The specific environmental conditions associated with the success of various species were also analysed and presented. Using the above information, a two-part model was proposed which predicts the most likely genera of phytoplankton with respect to multidimensional environmental gradients. This model covers a wide gamut of conditions varying from highly variable lotic to lentic environments.
As Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii was considered a most important species in relation to the quality of the water supply for Rockhampton, the physical, chemical and biotic conditions prior to and during a bloom of this species are described. A number of possible grazers of C. raciborskii were identified with a view to future biomanipulation. One of these, the large ciliate, Paramecium cf. caudatum was found to be an effective grazer of toxic straight C. raciborskii in the laboratory.
This study is unique in that it analyses the impact of episodic events (eg. major flooding) on the subsequent phytoplankton in the lower Fitzroy River. The model relating phytoplankton to multidimensional environmental gradients provides great information for use in management, particularly in relation to the prediction of toxic algal blooms.

Full textThe focus of this thesis is to examine the use of techniques of risk management employed by companies in Central Queensland's mining manufacturing supply chain. This is a rapidly growing industry sector supporting one of Queensland's major export industries. The specific objective of this research is to examine how companies in the supply chain employ techniques to identify, assess, and manage supply risks.
The research methodology entailed the use of in-depth interviews of companies in Rockhampton, Mackay and Yeppoon in Central Queensland. This method has been selected because of limited empirical data relating to supply chain issues in this field. Quantitative questions have been incorporated into an interview questionnaire to gain more information in the limited time available. A total of 21 interviews were conducted, and methods of qualitative description and descriptive statistics have been used to analyse the subsequent data.
The results show that Supply Unavailable, Supply Price Increase, and Unpredictable Lead Times are three main sources of supply risks perceived by respondents. For risk identification and assessment, specific techniques have been adopted widely, especially Communication with Suppliers. For risk mitigation, Alternative Suppliers when Supply Interrupted is perceived as the most important technique to reduce the impact of risk occurrence, while Close Working Relationship with Suppliers and Localised Sourcing are broadly used as the techniques to reduce the likelihood of risk occurrence. However, traditional buffer-oriented techniques, such as Multiple Sourcing, and Increased Stockpiling and Buffer Inventory, are not as popular in this industry as would be expected from published literature.

Thesis, 2001. https://figshare.com/articles/thesis/Surface_and_borehole_geophysical_analysis_of_structures_within_the_Callide_Basin_eastern_Central_Queensland/20334999.
Full textTraditional geophysical techniques, such as electrical, magnetic, seismic and gamma spectroscopic methods, have been deployed across the Callide Basin, Eastern Central Queensland, intent on delineating basin -wide structures. Further, innovative surface and borehole geophysical techniques have been applied for coal mine -scale exploration and production with the intention of reducing global geological ambiguity and optimising exploration resources at Callide Coalfields.
A very low frequency electromagnetic surface impedance mapping method, the SIROLOG downhole technique, acoustic scanning, electromagnetic tomography and
full wave -form sonic borehole logging have been trialed for geological hazard and mine design applications at Callide Coalfields as the precursor to their wider
application and acceptance in the Australian coal industry.
In this thesis, the theoretical basis for these techniques is provided. However, more importantly, the case studies presented demonstrate the role that these geophysical
techniques have played in identifying geological structures critical to mining.
Reverse faults that daylight in highwalls and intrusions constitute geological hazards that affect safety, costs and scheduling in mining operations. Identification of the limit
of oxidation of coal seams (coal subcrop) is critical in mine design. During the course of this thesis, the application of geophysical techniques resulted in:
a) a major structure (the "Trap Gully Monocline") being redefined from its original
interpretation as a normal fault to a monocline that is stress -relieved by minor scale thrust faulting;
b) two previously unidentified intrusions (the Kilburnie "Homestead" plug and The Hut "Crater" plug) that impinge on mining have been discovered;
c) the delineation of two coal subcrop lines has resulted in the discovery of an additional 1.5 million tonnes of coal reserve at Boundary Hill mine and the successful redesign of mining strips at The Hut Central Valley and Eastern
Hillside brownfield sites; and
d) the first ever attempt to petrophysically characterise the lithotypes within the Callide Basin.
