Multivariate approaches to matching spectra for environmental and forensic purposes. Apart from an increased understanding of these commonly-used analytical methods, and their extension to current problems, the outcome of the project will be programs that can be used by the Environmental Protection Agency to give the probability that an oil spill comes from an alleged source. This evidence may be laid before a court, and is more objective than present methods. The identification of illegal drugs ....Multivariate approaches to matching spectra for environmental and forensic purposes. Apart from an increased understanding of these commonly-used analytical methods, and their extension to current problems, the outcome of the project will be programs that can be used by the Environmental Protection Agency to give the probability that an oil spill comes from an alleged source. This evidence may be laid before a court, and is more objective than present methods. The identification of illegal drugs will also be made possible, including information about the country or region of origin, and the place and processes used to refine the drug.Read moreRead less

The proposed facility will significantly enhance the capabilities of the collaborating Universities, provide excellent framework to support both fundamental and applied research, promote research activities to form commercial linkages and partnership with national/international players in a wide range of disciplines. It will bring direct benefit to many organizations through providing services for scientific development, create graduates of high quality, increased capacity for contract research and direct application of research results. The project falls within the state government's key targets of 10 Years Vision for science, technology and innovation (STI 10) towards the formation of highly equipped research precincts.
