Behaviour of aluminium and iron in acid runoff from acid sulphate soils in...
Aluminium and iron concentrations and partitioning between particulate, colloidal and dissolved forms were examined in acid run-off from known acid sulphate soil environments in... -
The discovery of Miocene vertebrates, Lake Frome area, South Australia
This report announces the discovery of a diverse vertebrate fauna from exposures of the Namba Formation in the southern Frome Embayment (Tarkarooloo Basin), South Australia. The... -
On the isostatic compensation of Australia topography
The depth of isostatic compensation and the strength of the lithosphere are investigated by calculating isostatic anomalies for a range of isostatic models. The models are of... -
Architecture and evolution of the Australian continental margin
Interpretation of key seismic profiles around the Australian margin clearly show that the three principal rift-drift segments (north-western/western, southern, and eastern) have... -
Compilation and production of the 1976 1:5 000 000 Gravity Map of Australia
In 1976 a coloured 1:5 000 000 Gravity Map of Australia was published by BMR. At that stage the systematic reconnaissance gravity coverage of Australia, initiated by BMR in... -
The Australian National Gravity Database
AGSOs Australian National Gravity Database contains data from more than 900 000 point gravity observations on the Australian mainland, over the continental margins, on the... -
Growth fabrics and growth rates of Holocene reefs in the Great Barrier Reef
Over the past five years, scientists of the Bureau of Mineral Resources and James Cook University of North Queensland have drilled 61 holes into 24 reefs throughout the Great... -
Application of sequence stratigraphic concepts to Middle Cambrian...
The stratigraphic and spatial distributions of phosphatic and organic-matter rich Middle Cambrian sediments of the Georgina Basin are outlined in terms of sequence stratigraphic... -
Deep-water Quaternary Foraminifera from short cores taken between Australia...
Twenty short cores were recovered from the northern Scott Plateau (water depths ca 3200 m) and the southern slope of the Java Trench (water depths 4950-5790 m) by R.V. Valdivia... -
Earthquake duration magnitudes in southeast Australia, accounting for site,...
A new expression with superior consistency in the calculation of magnitude from earthquake coda duration has been developed. The need to take into consideration the site, the... -
A risk assessment of sulfonylurea herbicides leaching to groundwater
Improvements in agricultural production help sustain the worlds burgeoning population. The question is whether agricultural technologies degrade primary soil and water... -
Early Proterozoic migmatitic basement in the Kalkadoon-Leichhardt Belt of...
Tightly folded migmatitic rocks, intruded by 1860 Ma granite and younger felsic and mafic dykes, are exposed in a band 95km long and up to 10km wide along the western part of... -
The Proterozoic Kalkadoon and Ewen Batholiths, Mount Isa Inlier, Queensland:...
The Proterozoic I-type Kalkadoon and Ewen Batholiths and their comagmatic extrusive equivalents, the Leichhardt suite, form an association covering at least 5000 km2 in the... -
The Polda Basin - a seismic interpretation of a Proterozoic-Mesozoic rift in...
The Polda Basin is an elongate easterly trending trough underlying the continental shelf in water depths of 50-200 m on the eastern side of the Great Australian Bight. It... -
The sediments of the Argo Abyssal Plain and adjacent areas, northeast Indian Ocean
A series of geophysical traverses by the Atlantis II across the Argo Abyssal Plain, together with coring at a number of selected localities has provided new information on... -
Fifth BMR Symposium [Abstracts]
The 5th BMR Symposium was held in Canberra on the 28th and 29th April 1976, and was opened by the Minister for National Resources, the Rt. Hon. J. D. Anthony. These annual... -
Zircon U-Pb ages and geochemistry of igneous and metamorphic rocks in the...
High-grade metamorphic and felsic igneous rocks from the northern Prince Charles Mountains, East Antarctica, have been characterised geochemically and dated from SHRIMP zircon... -
Quaternary vadose calcretes revisited
Vadose calcretisation commences with precipitation of micritic calcite from carbonate-rich meteoric water in the soil moisture zone. Through time, calcrete is subjected to...
