Robert Endean on the Great Barrier Reef, 1954

from State Library of Queensland

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    A CORAL reef off Mission Beach has been named after a respected marine scientist in recognition of his pioneering research into crown-of-thorns starfish and ecotoxicology. Dr Robert “Bob” Endean was a fierce advocate for the protection of the Great Barrier Reef and played a key role in the 1960s environmental movement, which led to the formation of the marine park authority in 1975. He was one of the first people to use scuba gear to dive on the Reef and spent more than 40 years working in the University of Queensland’s Zoology Department before retiring in 1990. “Bob was a leader in marine science and a key player in getting to where we are today in reef management,” said GBRMPA general manager Bruce Elliot. “Recognising and advocating the significant threat posed to coral ecology, Bob pioneered crown-of-thorns starfish research, and his research forms the basis of the work we are still doing today.” The reef was officially named by GBRMPA, the Royal Australian Navy’s Australian Hydrographic Office and the Queensland Government.

Cargo Ship moored at South Trees Wharf, Gladstone, ca. 1970

from State Library of Queensland

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    South Trees is a coastal suburb facing the Auckland Channel, a waterway separated from the Coral Sea by Facing Island. The suburb consists of three non-contiguous areas of island, including the land around Parsons Point to the west of the South Trees Inlet and two islands within the South Trees Inlet, the northern one called South Trees Island while the southern one is unnamed.[3] The suburb is used only for industrial purposes. In the Parsons Point area is the Queensland Alumina Limited refinery with a footprint of 80 hectares (200 acres) of a 3,050-hectare (7,500-acre) site. There is a causeway bridge from Parsons Point to South Trees Island where the refinery's wharf and storage facility is located. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Trees,_Queensland
