Port Melbourne was once a vibrant river delta composed of dunes, marshes and tea-tree thickets, rich in wildlife. The arrival of settlers disrupted established land use patterns, decimating the way of life of the traditional owners.A large lagoon, that helped define this emerging suburb, was progressively filled in to create new land for subdivision. The modest, wooden cottages built on it contained the hopes and dreams of ordinary people who came here from many lands.This book tells some of their stories. It features an eclectic range of women and men who either rented or owned property on or near the northern reaches of this former lagoon between the 1870s and the early 1950s. It shares their joys and sorrows, their struggles and successes, their friendships and family ties.Port Melbourne has changed dramatically in the intervening seventy years and issues like climate change and reconciliation will shape its future.
Numerical models have become much more efficient, making their application to problems increasingly widespread. User-friendly interfaces make the setup of a model much easier and more intuitive while increased computer speed can solve difficult problems in a matter of minutes. Co-authored by the software’s creator, Dr. Jirka Šimůnek, Soil Physics with HYDRUS: Modeling and Applications demonstrates one- and two-dimensional simulations and computer animations of numerical models using the HYDRUS software. Classroom-tested at the University of Georgia by Dr. David Radcliffe, this volume includes numerous examples and homework problems. It provides students with access to the HYDRUS-1D progr...
This collection brings together key writings which convey the breadth of what is understood to be Gothic, and the ways in which it has produced, reinforced, and undermined received ideas about literature and culture. In addition to its interests in the late eighteenth-century origins of the form, this collection anthologizes path-breaking essays on most aspects of gothic production, including some of its nineteenth, twentieth and twenty-first century manifestations across a broad range of cultural media.
