Australia's standards for air quality are set by the National Environment Protection Council (NEPC), which is comprised of the Commonwealth, State and Territory Environment Ministers. The standards, known as Ambient Air Quality National Environment Protection Measures (NEPM), were first established in...
(that is, stems still attached) and pressed the juice to French oak barrels and concrete vessels for a spontaneous fermentation by ambient yeasts. Fermentation with grape solids, partial malo-lactic fermentation and a little lees stirring post-ferment, added texture and flavours to the wine. The...
One model listed on the Australian Government’s energy rating website (www.energyrating.gov.au) uses just 0.45 kW of electricity when the external ambient temperature is 2 °C to produce 3.54 kW of heat, 7.9 times the electric energy used. A minimal impact on electricity consumption was ...
The Antarctic continental margin supplies the densest bottom water to the global abyss. From the late twentieth century, an acceleration in the long-term freshening of Antarctic Bottom Waters (AABW) has been detected in the Australian-Antarctic Basin. Ou
NSW air quality stations are accredited by the National Association of Testing Authorities and use Standards Australia methods for ambient air quality measurements where possible (Department of Planning Industry and the Environment 2020). Further details of specific measurement techniques are available on ...

Analysis of available data shows, quite clearly, that the various measures for lead, SO2 and particulate matter, as established under Australia's National Environment Protection Measure Ambient Air Quality criteria, are not being met. These exceedences continue to occur, despite the fact that all ...
Ambient LevelsSulfur-dioxideTime-seriesSao-pauloPollutionHealthThis paper develops a practical probabilistic method for assessing aggregate population health risks from different types of population exposures. The method consists of calculating the product of two functions: a population-weighted distribution of...
A good deal of uncertainty still surrounds the setting and implementing of standards. Emission inventories, ambient levels of smog precursors and particulate matter databases should be improved as well as overall air quality monitoring. In Québec, we aredoi:10.1080/00222932508633186...
