Some aspects of lagoon sedimentation and circulation at One Tree Reef,...
Observations of water movement at One Tree Reef under modal wind, wave, and tide conditions show that the lagoon currents are insufficient to entrain lagoon sediments and cannot... -
Mesozoic outcrops on the lower continental slope off Exmouth, Western Australia
Seismic reflection profiles over the southwestern margin of the Exmouth Plateau, which have been tentatively tied to the Northwest Shelf stratigraphic sequence, indicate that... -
Source rock potential and hydrocarbon prospectivity of the Darling Basin, NSW
Available geological and geophysical data for the dominantly Devonian Darling Basin of western New South Wales indicate a high risk for petroleum exploration. Hydrocarbon... -
Submarine valleys on the Ceduna Terrace off South Australia
A detailed bathymetric map has been compiled for the Ceduna Terrace, off South Australia. The most striking features of the bathymetry are numerous submarine valleys, which... -
Epeiric carbonate sedimentation of the Ninmaroo Formation (Upper...
The Ninmaroo Formation (Upper Cambrian-Lower Ordovician) is one of several epeiric carbonate sequences in the Georgina Basin. It comprises ooid, peloid, flat-pebble... -
Relative fall of Holocene sea level and coastal progradation, northeastern...
The levels of intertidal environments of prograding Holocene coastal complexes of northeast Spencer Gulf have been precisely measured and their relation with the tidal range... -
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... -

Lord Howe Rise, Tasman Sea - preliminary geophysical results and petroleum prospects
The Lord Howe Rise is a major submarine feature in the Tasman Sea; it extends northwest from the New Zealand continental margin and lies about 600 to 1200 km off the east coast... -
The Late Triassic molluscs, conodonts, and brachiopods of the Kuta...
The Kuta Formation is mainly a limestone deposit which crops out on the flanks of the Kubor Anticline in the Central Highlands of Papua New Guinea. It has been variously... -
A reconnaissance investigation of the major Palaeozoic aquifers in the...
The Canning Basin is a large sedimentary basin with an onshore area of 430 000 km2. It has a thick, discontinuous succession of Palaeozoic and Mesozoic marine and continental... -
Mesozoic sedimentary and volcanic rocks dredged from the northern Exmouth...
The deeply incised northern margin of the Exmouth Plateau has been dredged extensively along seismic reflection profiles, in water 2000- 5600 m deep, by R. V. Sonne (Cruise... -
Terrigenous sedimentation in the central Great Barrier Reef lagoon: a model...
The central Great Barrier Reef Province is characterised by a mainland prograding terrigenous clastic shoreline and an inner shelf dominated by fluvially derived mud. The... -
Triassic environments in the Canning Basin, Western Australia
A review of the lithology, sedimentary structures and palaeontology, supplemented by original investigations, suggests that the Triassic system in the Canning Basin can be... -
Sequence analysis and depositional models of crinoidal limestones, Permian...
The Permian Yessabah Limestone, a thick crinoidal limestone unit, appears abruptly in the stratigraphic succession over a large area of the Hastings Block in northeastern New... -
Early Devonian thelodonts (Agnatha) from the Toko Syncline, western...
Thelodont scales recovered from the basal (calcareous) unit of the Cravens Peak Beds in the Georgina Basin, are referable to Turinia australiensis Gross, 1971, T. cf. pagei... -
Mesozoic Bivalvia from Clerke and Mermaid Canyons, northwest Australian...
Four sets of rock samples from two sites off the northwest Australian shelf in 3625-4480 m of water contain macrofaunas, mainly bivalves, of warm shallow-water origin. Mermaid... -
Buried reef structures in the Lennard Shelf, Canning Basin, Western Australia
Buried Upper Devonian reef has been found in Meda No. 1 borehole in the Lennard Shelf, Canning Basin. Frequency analysis made on seismic-record sections across the structure... -
High-energy reef and terrigenous sedimentation, Boulder Reef, Great Barrier Reef
Sediment and water flux were monitored at Boulder Reef, in the Northern Great Barrier Reef, before, during, and after the passage of Tropical Cyclone Dominic. Rainfall at... -
The Lander Trough, southern Wiso Basin, Northern Territory
The Lander Trough forms the east-southeast trending, southern and deeper part of the Wiso Basin, and is flanked on the north by an extensive less deformed area of the Basin....
