摘要

Cut off from the mainland and surrounded by ocean, a group of scientists enjoys the perks of working in paradise.Something like 21st-century castaways, 10 people call tiny Heron Island, in the south of the Great Barrier Reef, home. I've joined them here, 8okm north-east of Gladstone, Queensland, to visit their workplace - a high-tech research facility open all hours for scientists to study the reef surrounding them.Owned and operated by the University of Queensland (UQ), the Heron Island Research Station (HIRS) is the largest on the Great Barrier Reef The centre was built in 1951 on land leased from the Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service. However, most of its current facilities - including indoor and outdoor aquaria, wet and dry labs, and separate research and education facilities — were formally opened in 2009, after a devastating fire forced a two-year rebuild.
