Abstract
Ralph Slatyer (16 April 1929–26 July 2012) had a distinguished career in the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation and the Australian National University, in plant-water relations and plant succession, leading the development of physiological plant ecology. He was the founding Professor of Environmental Biology at the Research School of Biological Sciences, at the Australian National University and then Director of the Research School of Biological Sciences, 1984–9. He was Australian Ambassador to United Nations Educational and Scientific Cultural Organisation (1978–81), and as Australia’s first Chief Scientist (1989–92), he set up the Cooperative Research Centres.
Ralph Slatyer(1929年4月16日至2012年7月26日)在英联邦科学与工业研究组织和澳大利亚国立大学的植物-水关系和植物演替方面有着杰出的职业生涯,领导了植物生理生态学的发展。他是澳大利亚国立大学生物科学研究院环境生物学的创始教授,1984年至2009年担任生物科学研究学院院长。他曾任澳大利亚驻联合国教育和科学文化组织大使(1978–81),并作为澳大利亚首位首席科学家(1989–92)成立了合作研究中心。
期刊介绍:
Historical Records of Australian Science is a bi-annual journal that publishes two kinds of unsolicited manuscripts relating to the history of science, pure and applied, in Australia, New Zealand and the southwest Pacific.
Historical Articles–original scholarly pieces of peer-reviewed research
Historical Documents–either hitherto unpublished or obscurely published primary sources, along with a peer-reviewed scholarly introduction.
The first issue of the journal (under the title Records of the Australian Academy of Science), appeared in 1966, and the current name was adopted in 1980.
