Geomorphology of the Australian Margin and Adjacent Seafloor
For the first time, the distribution of seafloor geomorphic features has been systematically mapped over much of the Australian margin and adjacent seafloor. Each of 21 feature... -
On the Use of Abiotic Surrogates to Describe Marine Benthic Biodiversity
A growing need to manage marine biodiversity at local, regional and global scales cannot be met by applying the limited existing biological data sets. Abiotic surrogacy is... -
