Interactive map of patient-based age-standardised incidence rates in the state of Tasmania, Australia. Incidence rates are shown separately for each statistical geographic region (SA2, as defined by the Australian Bureau of Statistics). Crude incidence rates were estimated using the number of new patients as numerator (based on patients' residential address) and the corresponding region's population as denominator. These crude rates were then age-standardised using data from the Australian census of 2001.

Humans have been living on the continent of Australia (name derived from "Terra Australis"; Latin for "the southern land") for approximately 65,000 years, however population growth was relatively slow until the nineteenth century. Europeans had made some contact with Australia as early as 1606, however there was no significant attempt at settlement until the late eighteenth century. By 1800, the population of Australia was approximately 350,000 people, and the majority of these were Indigenous Australians. As colonization progressed the number of ethnic Europeans increased while the Australian Aboriginal population was decimated through conflict, smallpox and other diseases, with some communities being exterminated completely, such as Aboriginal Tasmanians. Mass migration from Britain and China After the loss of its American colonies in the 1780s, the British Empire looked to other parts of the globe to expand its sphere of influence. In Australia, the first colonies were established in Sydney, Tasmania and Western Australia. Many of these were penal colonies which became home to approximately 164,000 British and Irish convicts who were transported to Australia between 1788 and 1868. As the decades progressed, expansion into the interior intensified, and the entire country was claimed by Britain in 1826. Inland colonization led to further conflict between European settlers and indigenous Australians, which cost the lives of thousands of natives. Inward expansion also saw the discovery of many natural resources, and most notably led to the gold rushes of the 1850s, which attracted substantial numbers of Chinese migrants to Australia. This mass migration from non-European countries eventually led to some restrictive policies being introduced, culminating with the White Australia Policy of 1901, which cemented ethnic-European dominance in Australian politics and society. These policies were not retracted until the second half of the 1900s. Independent Australia Australia changed its status to a British dominion in 1901, and eventually became independent in 1931. Despite this, Australia has remained a part of the British Commonwealth, and Australian forces (ANZAC) fought with the British and their Allies in both World Wars, and were instrumental in campaigns such as Gallipoli in WWI, and the South West Pacific Theater in WWII. The aftermath of both wars had a significant impact on the Australian population, with approximately 90 thousand deaths in both world wars combined, as well as 15 thousand deaths as a result of the Spanish flu pandemic following WWI, although Australia experienced a significant baby boom following the Second World War. In the past fifty years, Australia has promoted immigration from all over the world, and now has one of the strongest economies and highest living standards in the world, with a population that has grown to over 25 million people in 2020.

In Tasmania, SCUBA surveys of seahorses populations were conducted. Intensive surveys were conducted in 2000 to 2004 in the Derwent River around Hobart (submonthly & then monthly) and twice yearly surveys from 2004/5 on east coast and Derwent River, until 2007.

Mark-recapture studies were done to estimate population size, and life history parameters.

Comprehensive health data for Tasmania including cancer, hospitals, diseases, and population.

The dataset contains length frequency information for abalone species, collected in all Tasmanian state waters from 1988.

This study created a size-structured stock assessment model to examine the population dynamics and fishing impacts on the long-spined sea urchin (Centrostephanus rodgersii) on the east coast of Tasmania, Australia. The model tracks urchin abundance and growth through size classes over time, using a transition matrix to determine how individuals grow each year, for nine (9) East Coast Tasmanian regions described by Ling and Keane (2018). It begins in 1960 with no population, reflecting the species' first recorded presence in Tasmania in 1978. The model runs until 2160, but the focus of the paper and results is for management options in the next 5 to 10 years, plus retrospective examination for the past 15 years since commercial fishing began.

The model generates data through the model testing and fitting process. Output files are defined by three 'classes' (biomean, fitsum, nevermean), with each class producing results for the nine different geographic regions.
(1) 'biomean' is predicted urchin density (kg/m2) for each region;
(2) 'fitsum' is the Rstan-produced model fit for each region, where the model provides a fit of an equation for recruitment over time based on a sigmoidal increase function;
(3) 'nevermean' is the predicted/projected urchin density if no commercial fishing ever occurred for each region.

The modelling process is fully described in the associated journal article (in final preparation). A description of files is provided in the 'Lineage' section of this record.
