Abstract:

Health protection involves the prevention and control of threats to health from both communicable diseases and the environment. I conducted a variety of projects across the breadth of Health Protection within NSW Health between March 2016 and October 2017 to fulfil the requirements of the Masters of Philosophy in Applied Epidemiology (MAE). My first placement was within the Enteric and Zoonotic Diseases division of the Communicable Disease Branch. A large outbreak of Salmonella Saintpaul occurred in Australia between December 2015 an

Abstract:

Densities and behaviour of Noisy Friarbirds Philemon corniculatus and Red Wattlebirds Anthochaera carunculata were measured during 1992 and 1993 at six sites along an east-west transect through central New South Wales from the Central Coast through to the Central Western Slopes, and at Goobang National Park from 1993 to 1996. Both P. corniculatus and A. carunculata were found to be mostly canopy foragers with occasional forays into the shrub layer when food resources became available there. Flower-probing and foliage gleaning comprised the bulk of foraging behaviour. Most of the food resources

Abstract:

Ovine footrot is a contagious disease of sheep caused by Dichelobacter nodosus which results in production losses and compromises the welfare of animals. The severity of disease which develops is on a spectrum, with benign, intermediate and virulent forms of disease described. The pathogenicity of three aprV2-positive D. nodosus field isolates were tested in a pen trial. Foot lesions typically associated with benign or intermediate footrot developed in the animals inoculated with the arV2- positive isolates. The efficacy of a serogroup specific bi-valent vaccine against benign and intermediate

Abstract:

This thesis empirically examines why an agent, a seller or a buyer, will choose to hold or attend one particular sales mechanism over another. I examine this question using housing sales data and government bond auction data from the Australian State of NSW. In Chapter one I test whether auction or private treaty achieves higher revenue for a seller of a house in NSW, using an hedonic framework of house valuations. I hypothesise that auctions perform better when the value of the object is more dispersed. My results show that auctions do achieve higher revenue, and that more unique propertie

Abstract:

This thesis presents an analysis of the NSW summary criminal jurisdiction (the ‘summary jurisdiction’). The summary jurisdiction is a dynamic criminal justice apparatus where magistrates preside over the determination of liability for certain proscribed behaviours in the lower courts without the intervention of a jury. My close analysis of the summary jurisdiction tells the previously little-known story of its development and offers a basis for critique. Adopting a socio-historical approach, this thesis offers a fresh analysis. At a broad level, change over time in the summary jurisdiction can

In observing events that led to its establishment, the project looks at the technological revolution of the 1920s

Abstract:

The thesis is a historical study from a socio-legal perspective of debates about, and developments in, criminal investigation law in NSW since 1945. In that period, the NSW parliament has enacted extensive criminal investigation powers and safeguards. This can be seen as the result of the increasing political sensitivity of 'law and order'. Politicians have sought to exercise (and demonstrate) greater control over the criminal justice system. Legislation has been employed to provide a framework for police actions, and to define a role for others, including judges, magistrates and the Ombudsman

The Royal Commissions also reflect the politics of betting and policing contemporaneous to them. The inquiries are symptomatic of deeper-rooted public concerns about off-course betting, and represent a poorly articulated, but publically supported disapproval of police tactics

Jazz is one of the most commonly taught musical styles in various educational contexts worldwide. Nevertheless, jazz teaching and learning resource materials are predominantly designed for those who have advanced beyond a basic level of competence. Further, the common understanding of jazz as a uniquely American style, in conjunction with Australia’s geographical and cultural distance from the USA, tend to feed the perception of foreignness of jazz when it comes to discussions of its place in Australia. For these reasons, classroom jazz education poses a unique set of challenges for Australian

Abstract:

The purpose of the present study is to examine the genetic and morphological variation found in narrow-range endemic terrestrial invertebrate species at different geographic scales, and the ramifications of this for their systematics, management and conservation. The listed endangered land snail Meridolum corneovirens and several related forms are restricted to the Sydney region, and were used to address the above issues. Morphological, anatomical, allozyme and DNA data were obtained for a total of 77 populations from across the known range of Meridolum. A particular emphasis was placed on the

Abstract:

Construction of a 1:250,000 scale regolith-landform map of the Cobar area of central New South Wales (NSW) Australia, demonstrates the presence of a wide range of previously undescribed regolith materials, landforms and landscape features in the region. The map covers the east-west extent of the Cobar Basin, extends to the west onto the Darling River Floodplain, and east onto rocks of the Girilambone Group. The mapping area is centred on the Cobar township and covers -14,730 krn2 between 303113 and 446113 E and 6483184 and 6586183 N (AGO 66, MGA Zone 55). 48 regolithlandform units have been id

In November, 1986, Mrs Lorna Ireland; Principal of Junee Primary School in the Riverina Region of New South Wales; approached a Senior Lecturer in Mathematics Education at Riverina-Murray Institute of Higher Education in Wagga Wagga; seeking his involvement in a project aimed to assist teachers at the school with their mathematics teaching. In addition to the planned involvement in 1987 of this mathematics educator, the school was also to be a pilot school for the trialling of a strand of the New South Wales Education Department's Draft Mathematics Curriculum and a participating school in the

Abstract:

In spite of the substantial repository of literature about respirators, little is known about the practicalities of their use. The focus of this research was about the practical aspects of using respirators in New South Wales workplaces. Two self-administered postal surveys were used to assess the level of implementation of respirator programs in 1996 and 2001. After five years, six elements improved. The most improvement was seen in the area of documentation including written procedures, keeping training records, recording respirator tasks, and maintenance records. The second survey investiga

Abstract:

The proposition that this thesis investigates is that the Northern Rivers region of NSW, the area from Grafton to Tweed Heads, is growing as a lifestyle and learning region with the potential for audiovisual industry activity to develop as a series of networked industry clusters. The cluster model is explored as an alternative approach to industry development that offers new opportunities for enterprise building and new options for government intervention in the cultural industries in the region. The concept of creative industries is also applied to scope new collaboration and economic develop

Abstract:

This qualitative study addresses intercultural understanding (ICU) in NSW English entry programs to higher education, offered by Registered Training Organisations and universities. These preparatory programs or ‘pathways’ offer international students an alternative entry to university, predominantly through delivering additional English language support. The study entailed investigation into the nature and value of ICU in three institutes. Two of the institutes offered English Language Intensive Courses for Overseas Students, and the participants were enrolled in classes at the advanced level

Abstract:

Salinisation is a major global environmental concern especially in semi-arid regions such as Australia. Dryland salinity is caused by capillary rising or discharging saline groundwater, which adversely impacts natural environments and infrastructure. It is important to understand salinisation processes to reduce these adverse impacts. This thesis uses a focus catchment (Muttama creek catchment, NSW) to explore salinisation mechanisms at a catchment scale. Three particular aspects are the focus of this thesis: (i) The variation in time and space of the groundwater salinity in the Muttama catchm
