Geomorphology and sedimentology of the continental shelf adjacent to Mac...
During the Quaternary, the Mac. Robertson shelf of East Antarctica was deeply eroded by glaciers and currents exposing the underlying basement, resulting in a scalped shelf. -
Integrating multibeam sonar and underwater video data to map benthic...
An integrated analysis of biological and geoscientific data collected from the nearshore marine environment of the Vestfold Hills was used to identify benthic habitats and... -
Distribution, abundance and trail characteristics of acorn worms at...
Acorn worms (Enteropneusta), which were previously thought to be a missing link in understanding the evolution of chordates, are an unusual and potentially important component... -
Comment on Dye (2006) - "Is Geomorphic Zonation a Useful Predictor of...
In a recent paper, Dye (2006) analyzed the distribution of species of macrobenthos and meiobenthos within two geomorphic facies of four small intermittently closed and open... -
Effect of sewage nutrients on algal production, biomass and species...
Microalgal blooms are one of the most visible responses to anthropogenic nutrient loadings in coastal ecosystems. However, differentiating sources of nutrients causing blooms... -
Incorporation of Organic Contaminants in Geochemical Samples and an...
Organic geochemists are increasingly involved in multi-disciplinary collaborative studies but not often in the initial sample collection phase, so understanding the origin and... -
The Potential Impact of Bedform Migration on Seagrass Communities in Torres...
Seagrass communities in the northwest of Torres Strait are known to disappear episodically over broad areas. Sediment mobility surveys were undertaken within two study areas... -
Quaternary Calcarenite Stratigraphy on Lord Howe Island, Southwestern...
Lord Howe Island is a small, mid-ocean volcanic and carbonate island in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. Skeletal carbonate eolianite and beach calcarenite on the island are... -
Topographic Controls on Post-Oligocene Changes in Ice-sheet Dynamics, Prydz...
Within the general trend of post-Eocene cooling, the largest and oldest outlet of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet underwent a change from ice-cliff to ice-stream and/or ice-shelf... -
Report on Cockburn Sound Field Survey March 2004: Coastal Water Habitat...
This report describes the field survey carried out in Cockburn Sound, Western Australia by Geoscience Australia (GA) staff for the Coastal Geomorphology and Classification... -
Influence of Climate Fluctuations and Changes in Catchment Land Use on Late...
Beach ridges at Keppel Bay, central Queensland, Australia, preserve a record of sediment accumulation from the historical period back to middle Holocene times. The ridges... -
Estimating the biodiversity of the East Antarctic shelf and oceanic zone for...
Ecoregions are defined in terms of community structure in function of abiotic or even anthropogenic forcing. They are mesoscale structures defined on the potential habitat of... -
Potential impacts of marine seismic surveys on fish & invertebrates
The extent to which low-frequency sound from marine seismic surveys impacts marine fauna is a subject of growing concern. The predominant frequency range of seismic airgun... -
An Initial Assessment of Estuarine Geomorphic Habitats as Indicators of...
An important aim of the comparative geomorphology of estuaries project was to increase understanding of the environmental characteristics of near-pristine estuaries and provide... -
Arc-continent collision and orogenesis in western Tasmanides: insights from...
Crustal architecture in formerly contiguous basement terranes in SE Australia, Tasmania and northern Victoria Land is a legacy of late Neoproterozoic-Cambrian subduction-related... -
Sediment Core from Beneath the Amery Ice Shelf, East Antarctica, Suggests...
The stability of floating ice shelves is an important indicator of ocean circulation and ice-shelf mass balance. A sub-ice -shelf sediment core collected during the Austral... -
Miocene volcanic seamounts on northern Lord Howe Rise: lithology, age,...
Multibeam sonar swath-mapping has revealed small submarine volcanic cones on the northeastern Lord Howe Rise (LHR), a submerged ribbon continent. Two such cones, aligned NNW and... -
Environmental Management of Clastic Coastal Depositional Environments:...
Simple, conceptual geomorphic models can assist environmental managers in making informed decisions regarding management of the coast at continental and regional scales. This... -
Formation, Morphology and Preservation of High-energy Carbonate Lithofacies:...
Cool-water carbonate environments may be responsible for up to one third of the carbonate sediment produced on continental shelves, and are useful modern analogues for many... -
A Crustal Transect between Precambrian Australia and the Timor Trough across...
Wide-angle seismic data from ocean bottom seismographs, together with gravity and deep marine reflection profiling data along the Vulcan transect in northern Australia, define...
