Cladistic Biogeography

The contributions of Nancy Burbidge and Leon Croizat to an understanding of Australian phytogeography are summarised and compared. The focus of systematics on relationship and nodes of cladograms is outlined as the basis of modern cladistic biogeography. It is argued that development of explicit analytical methods for the discovery of general area cladograms has been hindered by lack of recognition of geographic paralogy—evidenced by duplication or overlap in geographic distribution of taxa related at a node in a cladogram. A new method, subtree analysis, which recognises and eliminates paralagous nodes, and often inconsistencies, is illustrated with examples from the Australian flora. General patterns are congruent with conclusions of Burbidge and Croizat. Paper Presented as the 1996 Nancy Burbridge Memorial Lecture.

Two Sides

BOTH the pediatrician and the obstetrician need to know what influences various events during fetal development have on the performance of the infant after birth. It would be desirable to have more of the studies in this general area appear in pediatric journals to emphasize its importance to pediatricians. An example is the matter of the forces which govern the movement of water across the placenta. In general, this problem has been studied by determining the concentration of total solute, or what is more commonly termed the total osmotic pressure, of the plasma on the two sides of the placental barrier.

The Impact

All observations and data related to the impact of the 1991/92 drought on the woody vegetation, excluding the riverine vegetation of major rivers, are summarised. This includes data from a visual estimate of damage from aerial photographs, surveys on selected sites, and general observations. Despite lower rainfall, the area north of the Olifants River (excluding the far-northern part) was less affected than the area south of it, suggesting that the woody vegetation in the north is more adapted to drought. A characteristic of the drought was the localised distribution pattern and variable intensity of damage to the same species in the same general area. Information on 31 species are presented briefly. Although a large number of woody species was to some extent damaged, when the woody vegetation is considered as a whole, the influence of the drought was not very severe.

Seven determinations of geothermal heat flow were made in the general area of southern Prince Patrick Island in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. Measurements were made from sea ice in water depths of between 200 and 600 m. The mean heat flow for the two stations on the continental shelf in the Arctic Ocean was 0.46 ± 0.08 μcal cm−2 s−1. The mean heat flow for the five stations in the channels to the east of Mould Bay was 1.46 ± 0.16 μcal cm−2 s−1. The instrument and field methods are described. Errors due to the instrument and to the environment are discussed.

New Knowledge

This research is concerned with developing a framework for the evaluation of an organisation’s potential to engage in knowledge management (an organisation’s ‘KM-readiness’, or KMR). To recap, Chapter 3 offered background information and empirical evidence of issues that need to be considered in organisations, Chapter 4 provided an overview of knowledge management, and Chapter 5 explored organisational structure, strategy, and culture in the context of knowledge management. Discussion thus far would not be sufficient to provide a robust and reasoned framework. This chapter is intended to accumulate some further and more focussed ideas as to what should be in a KMR framework, and to assist in the understanding of the material presented here and further on in this thesis. This chapter, therefore, provides a comprehensive review of published knowledge management frameworks that purport to address evaluation, implementation, and other connected areas. Before continuing, it is important to set this exercise in context. The review of frameworks is distinct from a review of literature in which the frameworks are presented. The latter is not intended here. For example, a review of a paper may involve a comprehensive critique, which includes exploration into the general area of research, clarification of the hypothesis, detailed examination of research methods and methodology, literature review, and comprehensive examination of data representation and quality. Such a review would consider the presentation of the paper, and it would critically reflect on the overall purpose of the paper and contribution made to new knowledge, either conceptual or practical. This review focuses solely on the frameworks presented in a paper and in particular those that may address evaluation of knowledge management in an organisation.

Metal Ligand

The kinetic and mechanistic aspects of this general area tend to be strongly dependent on the particular system. This makes general treatments and explanations impossible, at least at the current stage of understanding. Various aspects of this area have been summarized in some general reviews. Ligands bonded to a metal can undergo a number of structural changes that do not involve complete breaking of the metal-ligand bond(s). Such processes are the subject of the following sections. Many chelate ligands have conformers that can interconvert. For example, the conformers of ethylenediamine interchange by rotation about the carbon-carbon bond, as shown in the following structures: The Ha and Ha' protons are magnetically different from the Hb and Hb' protons, so their interconversion can, in principle, be studied by NMR. These protons may be referred to as exo and endo, respectively. In simple systems, their interconversion is too rapid (k >106 s-1) for this method. However, if there is some constraint (e.g., CH3 groups) or if the coordinating atoms are part of a larger chelate system, then interconversion is slow enough to be detected by NMR. In nonplanar Fe(III)- tetraphenylporphyrinates, the ring inversion rates vary widely, depending on the axial ligand and the substituents on the porphyrin.

In this paper we review the current status of high-performance computing applications in the general area of drug discovery. We provide an introduction to the methodologies applied at atomic and molecular scales, followed by three specific examples of implementation of these tools. The first example describes in silico modeling of the adsorption of small molecules to organic and inorganic surfaces, which may be applied to drug delivery issues. The second example involves DNA translocation through nanopores with major significance to DNA sequencing efforts. The final example offers an overview of computer-aided drug design, with some illustrative examples of its usefulness.
