Determining the grainsize of sediment with increasing depth in core GC09,...
A gravity core (GC09) was collected from a depth of 166m within the Capricorn Channel, southern Great Barrier Reef (GBR). Samples were separated into different size fractions to... -
Age vs Depth profile of core GC12, collected from the Capricorn Channel off...
A gravity core (GC12) was collected from a depth of 990.5 mbsl within the Capricorn Channel, southern Great Barrier Reef (GBR). Isotopic values for 18-O and 13-C were obtained... -
Abundance and distribution of coastal, inshore zooplankton in the Huon...
Mesozooplankton community composition and structure were examined throughout the D’Entrecasteaux Channel, Huon Estuary and North West Bay, Tasmania. The data represented by this... -

A gravity core (GC09) was collected from a depth of 166m within the Capricorn Channel, southern Great Barrier Reef (GBR). Analysis of other parameters revealed the Last Glacial... -
The relative abundance (%) of planktonic foraminifera over time in core BAR...
The advent of deep-sea drilling in the 1950's prompted the use of planktonic foraminifera (unicellular protozans) as palaeoceanographic indicators. They provide a natural... -
Ocean temperatures over time estimated from planktonic foraminifera...
In recent years the term 'enhanced greenhouse effect' has become well known in modern society and yet aspects of this possible 'future climate' are poorly understood. The... -
Effects of Sabella spallanzanii physical structure on soft sediment...
The introduced European polychaete Sabella spallanzanii has become a dominant feature of sub-tidal habitats in south-eastern Australia. This study examines the physical effects... -
Denitrification measurements of sediments using cores and chambers:...
Denitrification is a microbial process that takes place on and within sediment and results in the transformation of dissolved inorganic nitrogen to nitrogen gas (N2), which is... -
