Summary

Australasian Science was a bimonthly science magazine published in Victoria, Australia from 1998 (2000 Volume 21) until it was closed in 2019 (Volume 40). [The articles from these volumes are accessible on informit.org.] They published on the web at https://australiasian.com.au until 2019. In 2022 it seems that the URL was reactivated by a different organisation with no connection to the previous publisher. The predecessors of Australasian Science were The Australian Journal of Science (Volume 1 August 1938- Volume 32 Number 12 June 1970). Publishers: 1938-1954, Australian National Research Council; and 1954-1970 Australian and New Zealand Association for the Advancement of Science. It was then rebranded as Search (Volume 1 Number 1 July 1970- Volume 28 Number 10 November/December 1997, Australian and New Zealand Association for the Advancement of Science).

Details

From the National Library of Australia catalogue entry:
"Australasian Science is the region's only independent scientific magazine. It has been Australia's authority on science since 1938 when it was first published as The Australian Journal of Science by the Australian National Research Council, which was the forerunner of the Australian Academy of Science. In 1954 the journal was transferred to ANZAAS - the Australian and New Zealand Association for the Advancement of Science. Throughout this time the journal published the research of eminent Australian scientists, including Sir Douglas Mawson and Sir Frank Macfarlane Burnet, whose groundbreaking clonal selection theory was published in the journal in 1957. The journal has evolved considerably over almost eight decades. Now published as Australasian Science, it is the only magazine dedicated to Australian and New Zealand science."

"... the rengitj, as a visible mark or imprint on the land, is characterised as a place of origin, the repository of all names, as well as a kind of mapped visual expression of the connection between people and places which is to be carried out in the temporal sequence of the journey."
