Miocene to Pleistocene foraminiferal biostratigraphy of dredge samples from...
Planktic and larger benthic foraminiferids have been studied in thin section from a suite of dredge samples of two sites on the Marion Plateau, offshore Queensland. The two... -
The late Cainozoic sequence of southeast South Australia and Pleistocene...
A recent drilling program in southeast South Australia has provided new insight into the late Cainozoic sequence of that area. Uplift of the region occurred during the... -
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... -

Geology and offshore petroleum prospects of the eastern New Ireland Basin,...
The eastern part of the New Ireland Basin of Papua New Guinea is about 600 km long by 150 km wide and mostly offshore, northeast of New Hanover and New Ireland. Basin geology... -
The determination of suspended-sediment loads in the southern Great Barrier...
A mechanical system for collecting samples of suspended sediment in the water column at various stages of a tidal cycle, together with measurement of tidal current velocities,... -
Thick ferromanganese deposits from the Dampier Ridge and the Lord Howe Rise...
Chemical and mineralogical data are presented for four ferromanganese samples (two nodules and two crusts) from two stations of the West German vessel Sonne. Three samples came... -
Shallow inter-reefal structure of the Capricorn group, southern Great Barrier Reef
276 km of continuous seismic reflection profiles have been obtained from the inter-reef areas of the Capricorn Reefs. Five reflectors were identified, three being widespread:... -

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... -
Gradational benthic marine communities in the Early Carboniferous...
Four benthic marine fossil commumtles are recognised in faunas of the Rhipidomella fortimuscula brachiopod Zone of late Visean (Early Carboniferous) age using multivariate... -
The geochemistry of Lake Frome, a playa lake in South Australia
Lake Frome, a large playa in southeast South Australia, lies at the centre of an internal drainage basin. Sediments and brines in the lake were studied to determine if the... -
Gravimetry in Australia, 1819-1976
The earliest known gravity measurements in Australia were made by French expeditions in 1819 and 1824, using pendulums at Sydney. Later in the 19th century, further pendulum... -
Salinity of deep formation water in the Canning Basin, Western Australia
Salinity of deep formation water in the Canning Basin, estimated from well log data or measured on water samples from oil-production wells and drill stem tests, ranges from... -
Geology and mineral deposits of The Granites-Tanami and Tennant Creek...
The Palaeoproterozoic Tennant Creek Inlier (TCI) and The Granites-Tanami Inlier (GTI) share similarities in their stratigraphy and tectonic evolution. Both are characterised by... -
Sediment-water interaction in Australian coastal environments: implications...
Limited Australian data on sedimentary processes- C, N, P, Fe and Si diagenesis at the sediment/water interface- have been reviewed. These and the results of more recent work... -
Biostratigraphy of Rig Seismic samples from Vening Meinesz seamounts,...
Samples from eight dredge hauls collected during BMR cruise 107 from several seamounts in the Vening Meinesz chain, south of Christmas Island, yielded calcareous nannofossils,... -
Diagenetic organic matter in Recent sediments and environments of deposition
Organic geochemical studies of the reduced organic material in sedimentary rocks provide a valuable insight into the origin and history of the sediments. Information on the... -
The hydrogeochemistry of groundwater in fractured bedrock aquifers beneath...
Fresh to brackish groundwaters in the range of 250 to 2250 mglL occur in fractured bedrock aquifers beneath dryland salinity sites at Yass in the Southern Tablelands of New... -
The elusive Cook volcano and other submarine forearc volcanoes in the Solomon Islands
Submarine volcanoes reported from the forearc region of the New Georgia Group are anomalously close to the line of northeast wards subduction of the Woodlark Basin. Kavachi is a...
