@DamTom79 Damien, another factor in this debate is the review of Freedom of Speech at universities by Ex High Court judge Robert French that was released a few weeks ago. THere is no doubt that JCU broke that code. I wonder if the VC even read that code. See page 230 of the code.

Another university acting badly

This beggars belief

ABC 730 repeat the fallacy that river runoff is killing the reef with sediment. The work of Larcombe and Woolfe disproved this over 20 years ago. But ABC did not talk to a sedimentologist.

ABC 730 last night. We have no idea if bleaching is worse than before the 1980's because we never surveyed the reef back then.

But the new paper states that the reefs are still all going to die though their results show no change in bleaching over centuries. They could probably not get it published without that caveat.

[Peter Ridd @peter_ridd]

New paper about coral bleaching says it has been happening for centuries, not just since 1980 . Surpised? https://t.co/iWCVEAdwnR

@MomentsAU @abcnews But waves generated by Debbie would have resuspended many millions of times more sediment than this tiny discharge

[Peter Ridd @peter_ridd]

Adani are accused of discharging a small quantity of water with 1 g/l sediment during cyclone Debbie. Never mind that Debbie would have resuspended billions of times more sediment.

#1%quality Of the nearly $500 million funds from the federal government to "save the reef" 1% should go to checking the science.
