The addition of 'o' and 'ie' to words and names. - It is very common for names to be changed by adding either the letter 'o' or the letters 'ie', as in Johnno for John or Hughie for Hugh. There is no hard and fast rule for how this gets done but it is something you learn...
Driving in the Australian Outback gives distances a different meaning. Whenplanninga big trip it's best to assume anaverage travel speedof no more than 50kms/hr on unsealed roads. On a good stretch of road you will most likely go faster, but 50kms/hr takes the rough spots into account....
The distances were calculated by converting the LGA of the usual residence and place of work into a centroid (the central point of a geometric object) and linking those points through a road network (accessed through Open Street Maps and Transport for NSW) and computing the distances using OSL...
The Australian Bureau of Statistics defines remoteness based on the road distances people must travel to access services [1]. According to the Accessibility and Remoteness Index of Australia, around 7 million Australians live in rural and remote areas [2]. These Australians face a range of health...
One of their hauling trucks is the 60-meter Super Quad road train with a payload up to 141 metric tons (155 tons) — four trailers pulled by a powerful truck traveling vast distances on dirt roads 24/7. They decided their first trial would be the bodies for the Super...
(michon, eernst, & koutstaal, 1969). the study concluded that fl-orange resulted in the fastest reaction times to detection, followed by yellow, fl-yellow, and white. hanson and dickson (1963), in a field experiment with detection and recognition as a function of distances, and ...
The working distances of 0.16 m and 1.4 m of the two cameras results in 0.2 mm and 2.1 mm pixel sizes respectively. These two cameras were used to compare the effects of spatial resolution. The FX10 and SWIR cameras in the WIWAM system have similar spatial resolutions but different ...
(Fig. 1). This area is sparsely populated and the cave is remote, located more than 40 km from the nearest town (Kununurra; population 5,300), 25 km from the nearest paved road, and more than 1 km from the nearest unpaved (dirt) track, which experiences vehicular traffic only ...
Even in the two coldest Australian capital cities, Canberra and Melbourne, the energy used to heat the living area is similar to the amount needed to heat an entire 160 m2 house. Firewood for Canberra and Melbourne has to be transported long distances, so is more expensive per unit of deliv...
To ensure consistency with NSW data, fluvial sites were chosen with similar distances from open-ocean (marine influence) (n = 18 fluvial, n = 18 marine, see Appendix 1. for the locations of VIC geomorphic comparisons). Due to large variation in dominant vegetation sample ...
