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... -
A preliminary overview of groundwater quality in the Northern Territory
Approximately 25,000 water bores are registered under the Northern Territory Water Act. Entry of bore data (including water quality data) into a computer data set has been... -
Water resources development in the Northern Territory's arid zone
The arid zone of the Northern Territory is one of the worlds more sparsely populated areas, with an estimated population of only 45,000 in 12% of Australia s land mass. The... -
Progress in the development of a water-care ethic for the Pilbara region of...
Mining towns in the Pilbara region of Western Australia have daunting problems that hamper efforts to apply water-conservation techniques: compacted heavy clay water-shedding... -
The late Cainozoic East Antarctic ice sheet
A review, mainly of East Antarctic late Cainozoic (post 40 Ma) geological and geomorphological evidence, supports the hypothesis of the continuous presence of an ice sheet, of... -
Aspects of stratigraphy and structure in relation to the Woolpunda...
Micropalaeontological and biostratigraphic studies have been used to assist understanding of the stratigraphic and structural context of groundwater flow systems in the vicinity... -
Involvement of government organisations in geochemical surveys in Australia
A Workshop was held at the end of the 7th BMR Symposium in May 1978 on what the involvement of government organisations in Australia should be in geochemical surveys. This... -
Structure and evolution of the southern Solomon Sea region
The evolution of the southern Solomon Sea region is deduced from a review of geological, geophysical, and bathymetric data, and previously unpublished seismic reflection... -
A new Devonian fish fauna, and revision of post-Ordovician stratigraphy in...
A Devonian microvertebrate fauna from the NDahla Member, previously assigned to the Cambro-Ordovician Pacoota Sandstone, has led to a revision of the stratigraphy in the Ross... -
A recently discovered unconformity near the base of the Proterozoic...
Recent mapping of Precambrian rocks in the southwestern part of the Mount Isa-Cloncurry region has revealed for the first time a major unconformity between the Kalkadoon... -
Source rocks and hydrocarbon potential of the Palaeozoic in the onshore...
In the onshore Canning Basin potentially oil-bearing sediments are restricted to the Palaeozoic sequence. Analyses of organic content of the most promising source lithologies... -
Observations on the geological origin of the 'C' horizon seismic reflection,...
Seismic exploration throughout the Eromanga Basin has identified several regionally-extensive seismic reflection horizons. The C horizon, at the boundary of the Wallumbilla and... -
Lithological correlations of Adelaidean glaciogenic rocks in parts of the...
Adelaidean glaciogenic sediments, representing two major glaciations, are widespread in three central Australian basins. Recognition of distinguishable marker dolomites,... -
