First Discovery of Dolomite and Magnesite in Living Coralline Algae and its...
Dolomite is a magnesium rich carbonate mineral abundant in ancient coral reef formations [1-3] yet very little is found forming in modern sedimentary environments. For over 150... -
Crustal architecture of Tasmania based on deep seismic reflection surveys in...
This paper was presented at the 17th Australian Geological Convention, Geological Society of Australia -
Why Australia has so much uranium
Uranium mining in Australia began in 1954 at Rum Jungle in the Northern Territory and Radium Hill in South Australia. The first mining of uranium for electricity generation in... -
Crustal Structure Across the Vulcan Sub-basin from Seismic Refraction and...
The attenuated continental crust between the Kimberley Block and the Timor Trough hosts some of the major oil and gas fields in Western Australia. The crustal structure has been... -
The Nature and Origin of the Submarine Albany Canyons Off Southwest Australia
The Albany Canyon complex off southwest Australia extends 700 km from Cape Leeuwin to east of Esperance. The Canyons head on the uppermost continental slope and extend up to 90... -
Macrobenthic Activity and its Effects on Biogeochemical Reactions and Fluxes
Ocean margins are the transitional zones between the oceans and continents. They represent dynamic systems in which numerous processes shape the environment and result in... -
Chemical Diversity in South-eastern Australian Saline Lakes II: Biotic Implications
This study explores how differences in ionic composition of south-eastern Australian saline lake waters, caused by path differentiation according to the Eugster-Jones-Hardie... -
Basement and crustal structure of the Bonaparte - Browse Basins
Australia's North West Margin (NWAM) is segmented into four discrete basins which have distinct rift and reactivation histories: Carnarvon, offshore Canning (Roebuck), Browse... -
Defining an active fault in the Australian intraplate context, with some...
Defining a neotectonic fault in the intraplate context is relatively straightforward - the fault must have hosted displacement in the current crusta stress regime. Defining an... -
Rifting and subduction initiation history of the New Caledonia Trough,...
The New Caledonia Trough is a bathymetric depression 200-300 km wide, 2300 km long, and 1.5-3.5 km deep between New Caledonia and New Zealand. In and adjacent to the trough,... -

Australia's Near-pristine Estuaries: Current Knowledge and Management
The purpose of this investigation was to collate previously disparate information on near-pristine estuaries and make it widely available for use by managers, researchers,... -
Holistic inversion of time-domain AEM data
A holistic inversion algorithm has been developed for time-domain airborne electromagnetic (AEM) data. The algorithm simultaneously recovers a layered earth conductivity... -
Open source flood simulation with a 2D discontinuous-elevation hydrodynamic model
A new finite volume algorithm to solve the two dimensional shallow water equations on an unstructured triangular mesh has been implemented in the open source ANUGA software,... -
Style and timing of late Quaternary faulting on the Lake Edgar Fault,...
Geomorphic mapping of the ~30 km Lake Edgar fault scarp in SW Tasmania suggests that three large surface-rupturing events with vertical displacements of 2.4 - 3.1 m have... -
Development of tsunami hazard maps for the Mentawai Islands, Indonesia,...
Heterogeneous distribution of slip during megathrust earthquakes has been shown to significantly affect the spatial distribution of tsunami height in both numerical studies and... -
Connecting diverse landslide inventories for improved landslide information...
The evolution of the Australian Landslide Database (ALD) was driven by the need for a nationally consistent system of data collection in order to develop a sound knowledge base... -
Carpentaria - Mt Isa Zinc Belt: basement framework, chronostratigraphy and...
Palaeoproterozoic sedimentary rocks of the McArthur-Mt Isa-Cloncurry mineral belt of northern Australia host the world's most important zinc repository, several world-class Cu-... -
Legal Traceability of GPS Positions in Australia
The national measurement system in Australia ensures a basis for legally traceable, consistent and internationally recognised measurements. With the growing societal dependency... -
