The Condamine Valley groundwater monitoring network, southeast Queensland
The Upper Condamine Valley has been selected for the first stage of an ambient water-quality monitoring network for Queensland. This important agricultural region in the... -
The development of the continental shelf of northern New South Wales
Shallow seismic reflection profiling on the continental shelf of northern New South Wales shows a lens of sediments which thickens beneath the mid-shelf, but usually thins... -
Resistivity methods in the search for groundwater, Cape York Peninsula, Queensland
On the western side of Cape York Peninsula, north Queensland (Fig. 1), in the Weipa-Aurukum area, surface water supplies are seasonal, and mining and pastoral development relies... -
The evolution of One Tree Reef, Southern Great Barrier Reef, Queensland
One Tree Reef is one of fourteen reefs in the Capricorn Group, southern Great Barrier Reef. The reef has an asymmetrical triangular shape, 5.5 km long and 3 km wide, with a... -
Precambrian hydrocarbons in the McArthur Basin, NT
An oily liquid and several types of bitumen were found in the silicified porous carbonate-rich Looking Glass Formation, in a BMR stratigraphic hole drilled in the Proterozoic... -
Three large intraplate earthquakes near Tennant Creek, Northern Territory,...
Following a yearlong series of foreshocks, extensive surface faulting accompanied an extraordinary sequence of earthquakes in the Precambrian shield of central Australia on 22... -
The Iverian, a proposed Late Cambrian Stage, and its subdivision in the...
The Iverian Stage is proposed for the concept of a post-Idamean/pre-Payntonian, Late Cambrian, interval in the eastern Georgina Basin, western Queensland. Designation and... -
Clavohamulus primitus - A key North American conodont found in the Georgina Basin
The enigmatic conodont Clavohamulus primitus Miller is described from the Tremadocian part of the Ninmaroo Formation, Georgina Basin. This key subzone species for North American... -

Geochemical data are presented for a sequence of spilitic pillow basalts (Tumu River basalts) associated with peridotites and gabbros of the Marum ophiolite complex in northern... -
Irrigation recharge
Available data about recharge from irrigation areas in the Mallee and Riverine Plains zones of the Murray-Darling Basin are reviewed. The need for clear understanding of how... -
Stresses in the Australian crust: evidence from earthquakes and in-situ...
Evidence from earthquake focal mechanisms, in situ stress measurements, and surface deformations indicate that the Australian continent is in a state of substantial horizontal... -
Description and prediction of pesticide leaching
A sound understanding of the factors affecting the mobility of pesticides in soil is an essential prerequisite to the development of functions which can accurately represent the... -
Combined seismic-gravity interpretation over the Donnybrook Anticline,...
Accurate modelling, using seismic and gravity data, has shown that the Donnybrook Gravity High in central Queensland is the result of a complex situation involving three... -
Microbial nutrient cycling in seagrass sediments
Seagrasses are specialised flowering plants with roots and vascular tissue. They differ from algae in that they can absorb and translocate nutrients from soft sediments. This... -
Seabed mapping using multibeam swath-mapping systems: an essential...
Swath-mapping of the seabed started soon after the Second World War, with small towed sidescan sonars providing images and built-in multi beam sonars providing bathymetry... -
Evidence for former evaporites in the Carboniferous Moogooree Limestone,...
The former presence of evaporites within skeletal carbonate lithofacies of the Moogooree Limestone, Carnarvon Basin, is inferred from the presence of quartz geodes which have... -
