LATE TERTIARY FLUID MIGRATION IN THE TIMOR SEA: A KEY CONTROL ON THERMAL AND DIAGENETIC HISTORIES?

An integrated study of the fluid flow, hydrocarbon charge and thermal histories of a suite of traps from the Timor Sea has revealed the presence of a key fluid flow event in the latest Miocene/Early Pliocene. This event, which coincided with, and was driven by, the extensive tectonism and fault reactivation associated with the collision of the Australian and Eurasian plates, involved the flowage of hot (90-120°C), saline (>200,000 ppm) brines (probably from deeply buried Palaeozoic evaporite sequences) up major faults and through the Mesozoic and Tertiary sequences. The passage of these hot brines produced a Late Tertiary (100,000 to 1 million years). In contrast, strongly reactivated, low integrity traps such as East Swan appear to have been breached too quickly (

The evaluation of a community coronary specialist nursing service in Northern Ireland

Providing an efficient service depends partly on evaluation, which itself should take into account, amongst other things, the clients' views. This study set out to evaluate clients' perception of a coronary specialist nursing service (CSNS) in one area health board in Northern Ireland. Postal questionnaires were sent to a random sample of 70 clients of the CSNS. Results showed that the majority expressed satisfaction with the service, as well as with the information they received prior to discharge into the community. Their responses provide food for thought to those involved in the provision of such services.
