In addition several reviewed articles on important topics not covered by the papers presented at OAP 95 were invited. The articles in this volume will find an audience among coastal developers, marine biologists and environmentalists. They cover a range of topics including the efforts of long-term sea-level rise on coastal flows and its impact on mang 606 $aSea level$vCongresses 606 $aSea level$zPacific Ocean$vCongresses 606 $aSea level$xEnvironmental aspects$vCongresses 606 $aSea level$xEnvironmental aspects$zPacific Ocean$vCongresses 615 0$aSea level 615 0$aSea level 615 0$aSea level$xEnvironmental aspects 615 0$aSea level$xEnvironmental aspects 676 $a551.45/8 676 $a551.458 701 $aNoye$b John$f1930-$015410 701 $aGrzechnik$b Marcus$01495507 712 12$aOcean and Atmosphere Pacific$f(1995 :$eAdelaide, S.

The papers in this volume examine metaphors of path and journey among specific Austronesian societies located on islands from Taiwan to Timor and from Madagascar to Micronesia. These diverse local expressions define common cultural conceptions found throughout the Austronesian-speaking world. 606 $aAsian history$2bicssc 606 $aAustralasian & Pacific history$2bicssc 606 $aCultural studies$2bicssc 606 $aSocial & cultural anthropology, ethnography$2bicssc 610 $aAsia Pacific;Ethnographic;Austronesia;Journeys;Cultural 615 7$aAsian history 615 7$aAustralasian & Pacific history 615 7$aCultural studies 615 7$aSocial & cultural anthropology, ethnography 676 $a959 700 $aFox$b James J$4edt$0645677 702 $aFox$b James J$4oth 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910563043903321 996 $aAustronesian Paths and Journeys$92586747 997 $aUNINA
