Gravimetry in Australia, 1819-1976
The earliest known gravity measurements in Australia were made by French expeditions in 1819 and 1824, using pendulums at Sydney. Later in the 19th century, further pendulum... -
Palynology of the Oligocene-Miocene sequence in the Oakvale-1 corehole,...
Palynological analysis of the marine Oligocene-Miocene Geera Clay and Renmark Group in the Oakvale-l corehole in the western Murray Basin has shown diverse and well-preserved... -

Holocene Palaeo-Environmental changes, central to north Great Barrier Reef inner zone
Fringing reefs and storm ridges, from inner-shelf sites on the Great Barrier Reef between 14° and 20° S, are examined for Holocene sea-level and climatic changes. The sites... -
Geology of the Exmouth and Wallaby Plateaus off northwest Australia:...
In this paper we present the first detailed geological information about the margins of the Exmouth and Wallaby Plateaus. New single-channel seismic profiles helped to select... -
Chemistry of manganese nodules from the Cape Leeuwin field off Western Australia
A preliminary report on the manganese nodule field southwest of Western Australia published in this Journal recently (Frakes, Exon and Granath, 1977) quoted chemical analyses... -
Geology and mineral deposits of The Granites-Tanami and Tennant Creek...
The Palaeoproterozoic Tennant Creek Inlier (TCI) and The Granites-Tanami Inlier (GTI) share similarities in their stratigraphy and tectonic evolution. Both are characterised by... -
Calcareous nannofossil biostratigraphy: an assessment of foraminiferal and...
From a study of middle to late Eocene calcareous nannofossil assemblages in four sections in the Otway Basin of southeastern Australia, a sequence of biostratigraphic events has... -
A non-marine Lower Cretaceous rift-related epicIastic volcanic unit in...
Relationships, thicknesses, and palaeocurrent and other sedimentary data applying to facies associations in Eumeralla Formation outcrops in the eastern Otway Basin distinguish... -
Upper Cambrian (Mindyallan) trilobites and stratigraphy of the Kayrunnera...
Nine species of trilobites are recorded from three localities within a restricted stratigraphic interval near the base of the newly defined Kayrunnera Group (previously... -
Relative fall of Holocene sea level and coastal progradation, northeastern...
The levels of intertidal environments of prograding Holocene coastal complexes of northeast Spencer Gulf have been precisely measured and their relation with the tidal range... -

Paleocene-Eocene biostratigraphy and palaeoenvironment of East Antarctica:...
The Mac. Robertson Shelf and western Prydz Bay, on the continental shelf of East Antarctica, were the sites of seismic/coring programs in February- March 1995 and 1997, and of... -
Numerical techniques applied to the geochemistry of some estuarine sediments...
Q-mode factor analysis classified the estuarine samples from Broad Sound into two main geologically distinct groups representing intertidal and supratidal deposition. This... -
Glacially grooved surfaces in the Grant Group, Grant Range, Canning Basin...
Grooved surfaces in Late Palaeozoic Grant Group rocks in the central Grant Range were cut by glacial ice. The orientation of the grooves and small step-like sedimentary... -
Seismic refraction - a tool for studying coral reef growth
Seismic refraction studies have been conducted in close proximity to shallow boreholes previously drilled at Bewick (Northern Great Barrier Reef), Hayman (Central Great Barrier... -
Geological evolution, tectonic style, and economic potential of the lawn...
The Lawn Hill Platform Cover comprises a sequence of mildly deformed Proterozoic sediments and volcanics that crop out northwest of Mount Isa. Three subdivisions are recognised... -
The late Cainozoic sequence of southeast South Australia and Pleistocene...
A recent drilling program in southeast South Australia has provided new insight into the late Cainozoic sequence of that area. Uplift of the region occurred during the... -
The use of sediments to assess environmental impact on a large coastal...
Sediment samples (140) acquired from the estuarine and fluvial sections of the Hawkesbury River between Windsor (130 km from the coast) and Broken Bay have been analysed for...
