Modelling grouped survival times in toxicological studies using Generalized Additive Models Environmental and Ecological Statistics, 2015 (Ref: 15541)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

A method for combining a proportional-hazards survival time model with a bioassay model where the log-hazard function is modelled as a linear or smoothing spline function of log-concentration combined with a smoothing spline function of time is described.

Modelling interval-censored survival times in toxicological studies using generalized additive models The International Biometric Society Australasian Region Conference 2013, Mandurah, Australia, 1-5 December 2013, 2013 (Ref: 15455)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

A method for combining a proportional-hazards survival time model with a bioassay model where the log-hazard function is modelled as a linear function of log-concentration combined with a cubic smoothing spline function of time is described.

Development of appropriate bioassay and statistical methods for determining survival sensitivities of Antarctic marine biota to metal exposure 2nd Society for Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) Australasia Conference, Brisbane, Australia, 4-6 July 2012, 2012 (Ref: 15456)
Category 3: Poster

Chemical contamination resulting from human activities has been identified in … nearshore marine environments in the vicinity of Antarctic Research Stations. To better … manage and remediate contaminated sites, and to assess the risks of ongoing activities…

Development of appropriate bioassay and statistical methods for determining survival sensitivities of Antarctic marine biota to metal exposure Society for Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) World Congress, Berlin, Germany, 20-24 May 2012, 2012 (Ref: 15457)
Category 3: Poster

Developing water quality guidelines for Antarctic marine environments requires understanding sensitivity of biota to contaminant exposure. Toxicity tests with Antarctic … invertebrates have shown response times to metal exposure takes far longer than the durations of standard bioassay methods.

Effect of line shooter and mainline tension on the sink rates of pelagic longlines and implications for seabird interactions. Acquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, 2010 (Ref: 14155)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

1. The likelihood that seabirds will be hooked and drowned in longline fisheries increases when baited hooks sink slowly. Fishermen target different fishing depths by setting the mainline through a line shooter, which controls the tension (or slackness) in the line.

Quantifying movement behaviour of vessels in the Antarctic krill fishery CCAMLR Science, 2009 (Ref: 14090)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Ten years of recent fine-scale haul-by-haul krill data were used to characterise the … behaviour of the krill fishery. Analysis of distance between hauls in relation to their catch … level revealed a distinct pattern.

Optimal sampling regime for detecting significant differences in peak mass of chicks: a case study with the wandering albatross Diomedea exulans Endangered Species Research, 2010 (Ref: 14065)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Special emphasis should be placed on determining optimal sampling regimes to detect … statistically significant differences in key indicators between populations for species with high conservation … values, especially when invasive handling techniques are the only method of gathering … data.
