Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
The mapping was performed about 100 nautical miles (115 miles, 185
kilometers) south of Tasmania during the period from November 2006 to
April 2007.
Dr. Kate Wilson, the director of the CSIRO Wealth from Oceans National Research Flagship, stated, "In
Australian waters, for example, more than 40 per cent of the creatures
brought to the surface by our scientists on a voyage of discovery have
never been seen before.” [Herald Sun: “CSIRO scientists find marine bonanza on Southern Ocean voyage”]
In the Herald Sun article, federal environment Minister Peter Garrett,
who made the announcement, said it was an amazing day for Australian
science. He added, “The richness of molluscs found in these voyages
has been described by marine scientists as astounding and requiring a
complete rewrite of textbooks for this type of fauna…. We have no idea
how many species there are, and most of the species we get we only
catch once.” [Herald Sun]
About 70 per cent of the fish, crustaceans, mollusks, sponges, and
corals identified on the two voyages are new to science—never before
seen nor recorded by scientists.
