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... -
Comment on Dye (2006) - "Is Geomorphic Zonation a Useful Predictor of...
In a recent paper, Dye (2006) analyzed the distribution of species of macrobenthos and meiobenthos within two geomorphic facies of four small intermittently closed and open... -
Effect of sewage nutrients on algal production, biomass and species...
Microalgal blooms are one of the most visible responses to anthropogenic nutrient loadings in coastal ecosystems. However, differentiating sources of nutrients causing blooms... -
The Potential Impact of Bedform Migration on Seagrass Communities in Torres...
Seagrass communities in the northwest of Torres Strait are known to disappear episodically over broad areas. Sediment mobility surveys were undertaken within two study areas... -
Quaternary Calcarenite Stratigraphy on Lord Howe Island, Southwestern...
Lord Howe Island is a small, mid-ocean volcanic and carbonate island in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. Skeletal carbonate eolianite and beach calcarenite on the island are... -
Topographic Controls on Post-Oligocene Changes in Ice-sheet Dynamics, Prydz...
Within the general trend of post-Eocene cooling, the largest and oldest outlet of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet underwent a change from ice-cliff to ice-stream and/or ice-shelf... -
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... -
Estimating the biodiversity of the East Antarctic shelf and oceanic zone for...
Ecoregions are defined in terms of community structure in function of abiotic or even anthropogenic forcing. They are mesoscale structures defined on the potential habitat of... -
Sediment Core from Beneath the Amery Ice Shelf, East Antarctica, Suggests...
The stability of floating ice shelves is an important indicator of ocean circulation and ice-shelf mass balance. A sub-ice -shelf sediment core collected during the Austral... -
Environmental Management of Clastic Coastal Depositional Environments:...
Simple, conceptual geomorphic models can assist environmental managers in making informed decisions regarding management of the coast at continental and regional scales. This... -
Formation, Morphology and Preservation of High-energy Carbonate Lithofacies:...
Cool-water carbonate environments may be responsible for up to one third of the carbonate sediment produced on continental shelves, and are useful modern analogues for many... -
A Crustal Transect between Precambrian Australia and the Timor Trough across...
Wide-angle seismic data from ocean bottom seismographs, together with gravity and deep marine reflection profiling data along the Vulcan transect in northern Australia, define... -
Bedload Sediment Transport Dynamics in a Macrotidal Embayment, and...
Keppel Bay is a macrotidal embayment on a tectonically stable, tropical coast, which links the Fitzroy River with the Great Barrier Reef continental shelf. Estuaries and deltas... -
Development, Composition and Age of Indurated Sand Layers in the Late...
Indurated sand is commonly found in Quaternary coastal deposits in a range of temperate and tropical environments. These horizons can record past regionally significant phases... -
Denitrification and Denitrifying Efficiencies in Sediments of Port Phillip...
High-precision measurements of N2 in benthic chamber waters indicated that denitrification occurs within the major sedimentary facies in Port Phillip Bay. The integrated fluxes... -
Seasonal Changes in Major Ions, Nutrients and Chlorophyll a at two Sites in...
Seasonal variations in major ions, nutrients and chlorophyll a were examined at two sites in the upper reaches of the Swan River estuary, Western Australia. Intra-annual... -
The Haines Structure: A Probable Eocene Complex Impact Structure in the...
A seismic structure imaged in a single 2D seismic profile from the offshore Canning Basin, Western Australia, is interpreted to be a possible complex impact crater on the basis... -
Rates of Shoreline Progradation During the Last 1,700 Years at Beachmere,...
The morphology and chronostratigraphy of seven beach ridges at Beachmere, southeastern Queensland, Australia, provide a record of changes in shoreline accretion and relative sea... -
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... -
Visualising coastal seabed characteristics: using VRML models to present...
Geoscience Australia has produced free Web-viewable 3D models of coastal data, for sharing data and information with project partners and coastal zone stakeholders. The models...
