The seafloor geomorphology of the Windmill Islands, Wilkes Land, East...
High-resolution marine sonar swath mapping, covering an area of ca. 33 km2 in the vicinity of the Windmill Islands (67° S, 110° E), Wilkes Land, east Antarctica, permits... -
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... -
What lies beneath the Antarctic Ice?
During the summer of 2003-2004, six scientists and technicians spent over a month camped on the Amery Ice Shelf in eastern Antarctica. The aim of their stay was to drill through... -
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... -
Continental shelf drift deposit indicates non-steady state Antarctic bottom...
A late Quaternay, current-lain sediment drift deposit over 30 metres in thickness has been discovered on the continental shelf of East Antarctica in an 850 metre deep glacial... -
Geology of the northern Jetty Peninsula, Mac.Robertson Land, Antarctica, GIS Dataset
The Geology of the Northern Jetty Peninsula GIS dataset contains the shapefiles and tables of the basement geology of the Northern Jetty Peninsula in East Antarctica. This... -
Basin geometries and fracture zone development along Australia's southern...
Paleogeographic reconstructions of the conjugate Australian and Antarctic rifted continental margins based on geological versus plate tectonic considerations are rarely, if... -
Antarctic Geodesy Field Report 2006-2007

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... -
Sedimentological Signatures of the Sub-Amery Ice Shelf Circulation
Two sediment cores collected from beneath the Amery Ice Shelf, East Antarctica describe the physical sedimentation patterns beneath an existing major embayed ice shelf. Core... -
Bottom currents, sedimentation and ice-sheet retreat facies successions on...
Measurements of water turbidity, currents, seafloor sediment samples and geophysical data document the sedimentary processes and the Late Quaternary sedimentary history of a... -
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,... -
History of benthic colonisation beneath the Amery Ice Shelf, East Antarctica
This study presents compelling evidence for a diverse and abundant seabed community which has developed over the course of the Holocene beneath the Amery Ice Shelf in East... -
A reconnaissance crustal heat production assessment of the Australian...
We present calculated radiogenic crustal heat production values (ca. 1500 determinations) from available geochemical data (from OZCHEM, published literature and unpublished... -
Coastal Seabed Mapping Survey, Vestfold Hills, Antarctica, February-March...
From February to March 2010, Geoscience Australia (GA) conducted an multibeam survey of the coastal waters of the Vestfold Hills in the Australian Antarctic Territory. The... -
Physical Controls on Deep Water Coral Communities on the George V Land...
Dense coral-sponge communities on the upper continental slope at 570 - 950 m off George V Land have been identified as a Vulnerable Marine Ecosystem in the Antarctic. The... -
Antarctic Geodesy Field Report 2010/2011
Geoscience Australia's involvement in Antarctica has primarily been focused on the maintenance and enhancement of geodetic infrastructure within the Australian Antarctic... -
Antarctic Geodesy Technical Report - Mawson and Davis 2000-2001
The 2000-2001 Antarctic Geodesy Summer Program consisted of a number of distinct components including - ARGN reference mark surveys and Orthometric height connections at Mawson... -
Geomorphology and sedimentology of the continental shelf adjacent to Mac...
During the Quaternary, the Mac. Robertson shelf of East Antarctica was deeply eroded by glaciers and currents exposing the underlying basement, resulting in a scalped shelf. -
