RST Apology to Tasmanian Aboriginal people 2021.
Comment is made on Sanders’ useful wave tank
experiments in relation to the erosion of rocky
coasts. His findings on wave erosion level are
related to observations in the field. Sanders’
reluctance to accept that waves can erode a
platform by hydraulic action alone is not shared,
as it is believed that if the cutting of the notch
were allowed to proceed, cliff falls would cause
a platform to evolve.

The Royal Society of Tasmania acknowledges, with deep respect, the traditional owners of this land, and the ongoing custodianship of the Aboriginal people of Tasmania. The Society pays respect to Elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge that Tasmanian Aboriginal Peoples have survived severe and unjust impacts resulting from invasion and dispossession of their Country. As an institution dedicated to the advancement of knowledge, the Royal Society of Tasmania recognises Aboriginal cultural knowledge and practices and seeks to respect and honour these traditions and the deep understanding they represent.
On 15 February 2021, the Royal Society of Tasmania offered a formal Apology to the Tasmanian Aboriginal people.
