The Oceanic Shoals survey (SOL5650, GA survey 339) was conducted on the R.V. Solander in collaboration with Geoscience Australia, the Australian Institute of Marine Science... -
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)... -
Deep-sea bio-physical variables as surrogates for biological assemblages, an...
Deep sea environments occupy much of the sea floor, yet little is known about diversity patterns of biological assemblages from these environments. Physical mapping technologies... -
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... -
Geomorphology of the Lord Howe Island Shelf and Submarine Volcano SS06-2008...
The Lord Howe Island survey SS06-2008 in April 2008 aboard the RV Southern Surveyor was a collaboration between the University of Wollongong and Geoscience Australia. The survey... -
Lord Howe Island feeding guild spreadsheet
Geoscience Australia carried out a marine survey on Lord Howe Island shelf (NSW) in 2008 (SS06_2008) to map seabed bathymetry and characterise benthic environments through... -
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... -

This report provides details of activities undertaken by the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS), Geoscience Australia, the University of Western Australia and the... -
Seabed exposure and ecological disturbance on Australia's continental shelf:...
Disturbances characterise many natural environments - on land, a forest fire that removes a patch of old-growth trees is an example. The trees that first colonise the vacant... -
Sediment characteristics influencing benthic biodiversity across a tropical...
Geoscience Australia undertook seabed mapping surveys in the eastern Bonaparte Gulf in 2009/2010 to deliver integrated information relevant to marine biodiversity conservation... -
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... -

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... -
Seabed Environments of the Eastern Joseph Bonaparte Gulf, Northern Australia
A seabed mapping survey over a series of carbonate banks, intervening channels and surrounding sediment plains on the Van Diemen Rise in the eastern Joseph Bonaparte Gulf was... -
Australian Marine Video and Imagery
Unlike land based environments, relatively little is known about what the seafloor around Australia looks like or has living on it. Geoscience Australia undertakes a range of... -
