Geophysical Variables as Predictors of Megabenthos Assemblages from the...
The question as to whether geophysical data from habitats can be used to predict the occurrence of benthic biodiversity is becoming more important with the increase in the use... -
Surface and Sub-surface Geology and the Role of Basement Structure in the...
The Capel and Faust basins are part of the northern Lord Howe Rise, offshore eastern Australia. These frontier basins formed during the initial phases of extension leading to... -
New Quartz SAR-OSL Ages from the Stranded Beach Dune Sequence in South-east...
A sequence of stranded coastal barriers in south-east South Australia preserves a record of sea-level variations over the past 800 ka. Huntley et al. (Quat. Sci. Rev. 12 (1993a)... -
Risks Posed to the Antarctic Marine Environment by Acoustic Isntruments, a...
The risks posed by a range of acoustic scientific instruments were assessed by the construction of matrices of scale and likelihood. We recognized six levels of impact ranging... -
Physical Controls on Coral Communities on the George V Land Slope: Some...
Dense coral-sponge communities on the upper continental slope off George V Land have been identified as a Vulnerable Marine Ecosystem in the Antarctic. The challenge is now to... -
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... -
Community Structure and Benthic Habitats across the George V Shelf, East...
Physical and biological characteristics of benthic communities are analysed from underwater video footage collected across the George V Shelf during the 2007/2008 CEAMARC... -
Continental Shelf Record of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet Evolution:...
The late Quaternary ice sheet/ice shelf extent in the George V Basin (East Antarctica) has been reconstructed through analyses of Chirp sub-bottom profiles, integrated with... -
Classification of the Australian Continental Shelf Based on Predicted...
Estimates of significant wave height and period, together with tidal current speed over a semi-lunar cycle, were used to predict the area on the Australian continental shelf... -
Improving our Knowledge of Australia's Near-pristine Estuaries
The central aim of the Comparative Geomorphology of Estuaries Project of the Coastal CRC was to improve our understanding of Australia's near-pristine estuaries. As the title... -
Sediment Mobility due to currents and waves in the Torres Strait - Gulf of...
The MECO hydrodynamic model was adapted for the Torres Strait - Gulf of Papua region at 0.051 resolution. Validation of the hydrodynamic model was carried out against observed... -
Influence of Climate Fluctuations and Changes in Catchment Land Use on Late...
Beach ridges at Keppel Bay, central Queensland, Australia, preserve a record of sediment accumulation from the historical period back to middle Holocene times. The ridges... -
Capricorn and northern Tasman Basins: Structure and Depositional Systems
The Bureau of Mineral Resources completed a major marine multi-channel seismic reflection survey (MCS) off southeast Queensland in December 1989. The research cruise, using RV... -
Siliciclastic shoreline to growth‐faulted, turbiditic sub‐basins: The...
The River Supersequence represents a 2nd‐order accommodation cycle of approximately 15 million years duration in the Isa Superbasin. The River Supersequence comprises eight... -
Application of biophysical information to support Australia's representative...
In order to protect the biological diversity of marine life in Australia's Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), the commonwealth government has passed the Environmental Protection and... -
Pliocene-Pleistocene glaciomarine sedimentation in eastern Prydz Bay and...
Lithostratigraphy, grain sizes and down-hole logs of Site 1166 on the continental shelf, and Site 1167 on the upper slope, are analyzed to reconstruct glacial processes in... -
Multi-scale Fish-habitat Associations and the Use of Habitat Surrogates to...
Deep-water demersal fishes are an important component of continental shelf and slope ecosystems and play an important role in the economies of many countries. Strong and... -
Processes controlling the formation of the Mertz Drift, George Vth...
Recently discovered drift deposits on the Antarctic continental shelf provide access to information on the Holocene palaeoceanography of the bottom current regime within deep... -
Classification of Australian clastic coastal depositional environments based...
A statistical assessment of wave, tide, and river power was carried out using a database of 721 Australian clastic coastal depositional environments to test whether their... -
Integrating multibeam sonar and underwater video data to map benthic...
An integrated analysis of biological and geoscientific data collected from the nearshore marine environment of the Vestfold Hills was used to identify benthic habitats and...
