Subtropical coral expansion into SE Australia: a haven for both temperate and expatriating tropical reef fishes
We examined reef fish assemblages in and adjacent to a newly established coral bed (subtropical Pocillopora aliciae ) in temperate south-eastern...

Austral Temperate Zone: Either Neglected or Misunderstood
Southern Hemisphere is home to a variety of temperate forests; most are evergreen, and only a small fraction is deciduous. Most of these forests are...

Pasture productivity benefits from strategic urease and nitrification inhibitor use are limited in rainfed temperate dairy pastures of southern Australia
IntroductionUrea is the most commonly used nitrogen (N) fertiliser on Australian dairy pastures, but has low N use efficiency due to high loss...

Temperate Forest Restoration
Eight thousand years ago, temperate and boreal forests covered 3200 million hectares, or a quarter of the earth’s land surface. They have been...

Invasive success of exotic wild oat depends on nutrient availability and competition in temperate grasslands of southern Australia
AimsInvasion by exotic species commonly influences the structure and diversity of natural grasslands particularly in fertile soils. This study...

Global Scenario of Temperate Nuts
The major temperate nut crops grown in different parts of the world include almond, walnut, pecan nut, chestnut, hazelnut and pistachio nut. The...

Conservation and Use of Temperate Fruit and Nut Genetic Resources
Temperate fruit and nut species come from locations with cold winters and well-defined climatic seasons and temperatures suitable for spring and...

Physiological factors facilitating the persistence of Pocillopora aliciae and Plesiastrea versipora in temperate reefs of south-eastern Australia under ocean warming
High-latitude reefs are suboptimal coral habitats, but such habitats are increasingly considered to be potential refugia from climate change for...

Nutritional Composition of Temperate Nuts
Temperate nuts are the dense food for phytonutrients such as unsaturated fatty acids, proteins, carbohydrates, antioxidants and other important...
-
Biotechnological Interventions for Improvement of Temperate Nuts
Nuts are dry edible fruits or seeds that have a high fat, protein, fibre, and oil content. Commercial propagation and genetic improvement of...

Organic Approaches in Temperate Nuts
Nut crops form an important component of diet and serve as a healthy alterative for meat especially in places where there is lesser availability of...

Predator-avoidance behaviour of target and non-target temperate reef fishes is lower in areas protected from fishing
The effects of hunting on predator-avoidance behaviour are increasingly being recognised on land but have received less attention in marine systems....

Conservation and Use of Temperate Fruit and Nut Genetic Resources
Temperate fruit and nut species come from locations with cold winters and well-defined climatic seasons and temperatures suitable for spring and...

Marsupials of Australia’s Temperate and Subtropical Forests, Woodlands and Heathlands
The temperate and subtropical forests, woodlands, and heathlands of Australia support diverse and endemic lineages of marsupials. The three main...

Marsupials of Australia’s Temperate and Subtropical Forests, Woodlands and Heathlands
The temperate and subtropical forests, woodlands, and heathlands of Australia support diverse and endemic lineages of marsupials. The three main...

Distinct emissions of biogenic volatile organic compounds from temperate benthic taxa
IntroductionBiogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) are emitted by all organisms as intermediate or end-products of metabolic processes....

Phytoremediation Using Tropical Wetlands: Are Temperate Treatment Wetlands Sound Models?
The use of wetlands to phytoremediate polluted waters is a practice that developed in temperate regions. This chapter explores the opportunities and...

Integrated approach to assess the spatio-temporal foraging dynamics of a temperate marine predator, the copper shark (Carcharhinus brachyurus)
Large-bodied sharks can be critical for coupling disparate habitats and food webs, which is considered central for ecosystem stability. Understanding...

Climate-assisted persistence of tropical fish vagrants in temperate marine ecosystems
Rising temperatures and extreme climate events are propelling tropical species into temperate marine ecosystems, but not all species can persist....

The Origins of Cricket in Australia
A starting point for any historical, or quasihistorical, study of cricket in Australia that uses economic analysis is to identify the reasons behind...
