	ICI Australia - diversified development
		However, the new German technology was not adopted at Botany for another 37 years as ICI was able to claim an extension to its patent for its higher cost route (claiming lost profits during the war years).
		The ethylene oxide plant, (straddling the first and second phases of Botany's development) is likely to continue to operate while the complex remains viable given firm demand for ethylene oxide surfactants and its derivatives.
		The Botany complex has undergone three significant years, 1940 with its beginnings, 1983 with an investment in a major LPG/naphtha cracker that might otherwise have seen the progressive closure of the plant, and in 1996 with access to ethane from South Australia that is shaping the plant to be ethylene based.

	biology - Scale (measurement)
		The scale of a map or enlarged or reduced model indicates the ratio between the distances on the map or model and the corresponding distances in reality or the original.
		a map of scale 1:50,000 shows a distance of 50,000 cm (=500 m) as 1 cm on a map, and a model on a scale 1:25 of a building with a height of 30 m has a model height of 1.20 m.
		The Richter scale, the Mercalli scale, the Rossi-Forel scale and the Omori are all used to measure the intensity of earthquakes.

		The female or megasporangiate strobili are generally large and somewhat woody, with numerous spirally disposed ovuliferous scales, each fused with its bract and bearing a single median ovule on the upper surface.
		Note the large woody cone and the ovuliferous scale with a single medial seed that is embedded in the scale.
		In this family the ovuliferous cones disintegrate while still attached to the tree; each cone scale with its seed and fused bract falls from the axis of the cone as a dispersal unit.

	Botany 115 Grades
		The left percentage for each student reflects the traditional grade scale, while the right percentage reflects the grade scale based on the highest student.
		Grade scales based on the highest student are often used in difficult courses where students seldom come close to the maximum possible points, and the traditional grade scale is much too stringent with few or no A's.
		It also has more A's and B's if the total points of the highest student is considerably less than the total possible points; however, in Botany 115 on-line students often come closer to the total possible points, and consequently there are more A's using the traditional grade scale.

		This will allow the librarianship that is intrinsic to the practice of systematic botany to be extended to the broad spectrum of work that is currently underway on digital libraries.
		Systematic botany attempts to group organisms according to their physical characteristics in a way that reflects their evolutionary relationships.
		Systematic botany thus pursues categorization on a par with inquiry--categories are not a corollary of information but, instead, are a mode of creation and argumentation, an activity that provides the nomenclature and unifying context through which botanical information and enigmas are communicated within and beyond the scientific community.
