Bioregionalization of the George V Shelf, East Antarctica
The East Antarctic continental shelf has had very few studies examining the macrobenthos structure or relating biological communities to the abiotic environment. In this study,... -
The relationship between sediment and water quality and riverine sediment...
We examine surface sediment and water column total nutrient and chlorophyll a concentrations for 12 estuaries with average water depths <4 m, and calculated sediment loads... -
Benthic environments of the Lord Howe Rise submarine plateau: Introduction...
The Australian exclusive economic zone (EEZ) contains1.6 million km2 of submarine plateaus, equal to about 13.8% of the world's known inventory of these features. This... -
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... -
Leg 189 Synthesis: Cretaceous-Holocene History of the Tasmanian Gateway
Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 189 drilled five sites in bathyal depths on submerged continental blocks in the Tasmanian Gateway, to help refine the hypothesis that its... -
A geochemical characterisation of deep-sea floor sediments of the northern...
This study presents new information on the regional geochemical characteristics of deep-sea floor sediments (1300 - 2423 m water depth) on the Lord Howe Rise (deep-sea plateau)... -
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... -
Small Angle Neutron Scattering Signature of Oil Generation in Artificially...
We have demonstrated for the first time the application of a small angle neutron scattering (SANS) technique for the precise determination of the onset of hydrocarbon transport... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
Submerged banks in the Great Barrier Reef, Australia, greatly increase...
Anthropogenic global ocean warming is predicted to cause bleaching of many near-sea-surface (NSS) coral reefs, placing increased importance on deeper reef habitats to maintain... -
Biomarker Evidence for Green and Purple Sulphur Bacteria in a Stratified...
The disappearance of iron formations from the geological record ~1.8 billion years (Gyr) ago was the consequence of rising oxygen levels in the atmosphere starting 2.45-2.32 Gyr... -
The Magnitude and Frequency of Combined Flow Bed Shear Stress as a Measure...
Benthic habitats on the continental shelf are strongly influenced by exposure to the effects of surface ocean waves, and tidal, wind and density driven ocean currents. These... -
Infaunal biodiversity and ecological function on a remote oceanic island:...
Understanding and predicting the processes determining biological assemblages and marine biodiversity is critical to managing and conserving marine ecosystems. Infauna are a... -
Small Angle Neutron Scattering Signature of Oil Generation in Artificially...
We have demonstrated for the first time the application of a small angle neutron scattering (SANS) technique for the precise determination of the onset of hydrocarbon transport... -
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... -
Chemical Diversity in South-eastern Australian Saline Lakes II: Biotic Implications
This study explores how differences in ionic composition of south-eastern Australian saline lake waters, caused by path differentiation according to the Eugster-Jones-Hardie... -
Implications of sponge biodiversity patterns for the management of a marine...
Marine reserves are becoming progressively more important as anthropogenic impacts continue to increase, but we have little baseline information for most marine environments. In... -
