In particular, it focuses on the palaeogeography of Australia. This book is the result of several years' work by a dedicated group of people. The work has begun at the Australian National University by Dr Peter Cook, then the initiative was continued at the BMR. Later work has expanded the study from the Australian continent into the broader context of the supercontinent of Gondwana, and also into more detailed studies of smaller areas of the Australian continental margin. - comprises a 96 page, full colour book with sections on geological time, plate tectonics, the break up of Gondwana, climate and sea level change, evidence for ancient environments & Australia's geological framework. - 70 palaeogeographic maps; Cambrian through to Quaternary - foldout legend - 6 page glossary of relevant terms {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[110.0, -44.0], [154.0, -44.0], [154.0, -8.0], [110.0, -8.0], [110.0, -44.0]]]} 110.0 154.0 -44.0 -8.0 Earth Sciences GA Publication Other Publication Published_External geoscience education mapping palaeogeography plate tectonics Download the file (pdf) documentDigital Download the file (pdf) PDF Unnamed resource documentDigital HTML
