Quaternary and modern environments of the Van Diemen Rise, Timor Sea, and...
Environmental baseline data are required for Australias offshore areas before petroleum exploration. This has boosted demand for analysis and interpretation of the Quaternary... -
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... -

Late quaternary regional controls on the development of the Great Barrier...
High-resolution seismic reflection data have been examined in an attempt to identify and explain some of the regional differences and controls on the development of the Great... -
Sedimentary cycles in the Surat Basin and global changes of sea level
Six sedimentary cycles, each hundreds of metres thick, have been recognised in the Surat Basin. The Jurassic cycles (nos. 1-4) typically started with high-energy deposition of... -
Variation of crustal mass over the Australian region
Seismic refraction surveys in Australia and nearby marine areas provide data on crustal velocities and layer thicknesses. The averages of these at various places have been used... -
Geological history of the outer North West Shelf of Australia: a synthesis
This paper uses information contained in other papers in this issue of the AGSO Journal together with the scientific literature to produce a synthesis of the geological... -

Drowned dolines - the blue holes of the Pompey Reefs, Great Barrier Reef
Blue holes occur at Cockatoo and Molar Reefs, in the Pompey hard line reefs. These two holes are roughly circular in shape, between 240-295 m in diameter, and 30-40 m deep. They... -
Origins of groundwater salinity near Tresco, northwest Victoria
Core samples and groundwater from bores at Tresco, northern Victoria, in the southern margin of the Murray Basin, have been analysed for palynology and chemistry. An aquifer... -
Long-term landscape evolution on Groote Eylandt, Northern Territory
Like other areas throughout the north of the Northern Territory, Groote Eylandt is dominated by a landscape of great age. Previous interpretations have argued that this... -
The gravity field of offshore Australia
The free-air anomaly field of offshore Australia has been divided into about fifty regional gravity provinces, each of which is characterized by uniformity of trend, free-air... -
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... -
The evolution of One Tree Reef, Southern Great Barrier Reef, Queensland
One Tree Reef is one of fourteen reefs in the Capricorn Group, southern Great Barrier Reef. The reef has an asymmetrical triangular shape, 5.5 km long and 3 km wide, with a... -
Palynostratigraphy of the Bookpurnong Beds and related Late Miocene-Early...
Dinoflagellates offer a reliable method for distinguishing the Late Miocene-Early Pliocene Bookpurnong beds from lithologically similar marginal marine sediments, such as the... -
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 ancient Murray River system
It has previously been suggested that an ancient Murray River once extended across the present line of the Mt Lofty Ranges, and emptied into Spencer Gulf. Evidence available... -
Contrasting marginal sediments of a seasonally flooded saline lake - Lake...
Lake Eliza is a hypersaline coastal lake in southeast South Australia, a region of winter rainfall and summer drought. It is fed by ground waters and has no connection with the... -
Palynology of Mesozoic dredge samples from the North West Shelf
Palynological examination was carried out on 34 sedimentary rock samples dredged from the offshore Rowley Terrace (Canning Basin), Scott and Exmouth Plateaux, and northern...
