Sedimentology and Geomorphology of the South West Planning Region of Australia: A Spatial Analysis

Created 17/10/2025

Updated 17/10/2025

A quantitative synthesis of the sedimentology and geomorphology of the South West Planning Region of Australia. Sediment data used was sourced from previous and new quantitative carbonate and grainsize data generated from surficial seabed sediment samples. All sample information and assays are available in the MARS database. The report and new assays were generated as part of an MOU with the Department of Environment and Heritage (National Oceans Office) and the results are reported in a format appropriate for use in regional marine planning.
