Contact: Justin Bailey The marine field station is located at Arrawarra Headland, on the northern New South Wales coast, adjacent to the Solitary Island Marine Park which supports substantial coral communities. The station was established in the late 1960's to provide a base for both teaching and research. The location of Accommodation, kitchen, laboratory facilities (including aquaria with flow-through sea-water) vessels (two ocean going and one for estuarine use) are available at the station. Limited computing facilities are available including access to the Internet. For enquiries regarding booking the Arrawarra Field Station please contact: $6.00 per sample The unit was designed for use on undiluted whole human blood and expired air. Contact: Tim Elliott The School has facilities for the preparation of thin, polished thin and polished sections, including fluid inclusion plates. Section manufacture includes thin sections, polished thin sections, polished blocks, doubly polished fluid inclusion plates, impregnation of soft or fractured samples, and K-feldspar staining. The Thin Section Facility is available for research work undertaken by all students and staff of UNE. Operated by: Malcolm Lambert Very high resolution (~23 MP) photos and videos of thin sections and smear slides, captured through a trinocular lens. The facility is a Canon EOS 70D DSLR, mounted onto a Leica DM750P polarizing microscope. Contact: Nikon Eclipse 90i with Brightfield and Differential Interference Contrast - 3 band fluorescenence For Induction please contact: Professor Jeremy Bruhl ERS has provided an excellent laboratory environment to be used in elementary, mid-scale and advanced experimental investigations as foundations for developing new analytical work in areas of discipline interest/specialisation. New equipment for the concrete and structural laboratories, including Existing equipment including: A USGS heating-cooling stage is available for fluid inclusion studies. Administered by: Dr Nancy Vickery For further information please contact: (Greenhouse 1 and 2, Glasshouse, Shadehouse/Polyhouse) For further information please contact: Calista McLachlan Laboratory facilities include: The School maintains a comprehensive collection of rock and fossil samples from research collections. These are predominantly from the New England region (the most comprehensive collection of New England rocks worldwide). Approximately 75,000 rock samples are catalogued. The School also maintains a small core library, with a selection of drill core from Eastern Australia. The Mineral, Rock, Fossil and Drill Core Collection is available for research work undertaken by all students and staff of UNE, as well as other universities and research institutions. Curated by: Malcolm Lambert Opened in March 2017, the UNE Natural History Museum is a redevelopment of the original Zoology Museum established in 1969. Located in the recently built Agricultural Education Building, the move into this modern teaching facility afforded UNE the chance to showcase material from our botanical, geological The N.C.W. Beadle Herbarium (NE) at UNE consists of c.100 000 vascular plant specimens, housed in a purpose built facility with excellent stereomicroscopes and specimen imaging equipment. Herbarium NE was the first university-only herbarium to deliver data to Australia's Newholme is a commercially operated Field Laboratory located about 10 km north of Armidale.
