Coastal deposits along the western coastal margin of Australia, a region of relative tectonic
stability, record Plio-Pleistocene events and processes affecting the inner shelf and adjacent …

Located in a tectonically stable, intraplate setting and in the far field of former ice sheets, the
southern Australian passive continental margin represents a globally important region for …

Holocene depositional processes at Poverty Bay have been affected by:(1) tectonism;(2) sea
level response to climate change;(3) fluvial processes responding to:(1) and (2), severe …

Carbonate-dominant sediments are currently forming and accumulating over the extensive
marine shelf of the passive margin of southern Australia. A dearth of continental detritus …

Wave-dominated sandy shores occur along much of the coast of Western Australia. Despite
local variations there is a characteristic distribution of lithofacies (corresponding to different …

ABSTRACT The Late Quaternary stratigraphy and sedimentary processes are interpreted for
an area of continental shelf on the eastern side of the South Island, New Zealand. The area …

Abstract The Leschenault Peninsula in southwestern Australia is a Holocene retrograded
barrier dune system. The barrier separates an estuarine-lagoon from the Indian Ocean and …

The Pilbara coast is set in the most arid part of coastal Australia. This coast and coastal
plain, composed of riverine plains, deltas, tidal flats, coastal dunes and limestone barriers …

Besides being a region of fragile and subtle beauty, attracting the interests of artists, poets,
novelists, naturalists (Theile and McKelvey 1972; Harris 1996; Paton 2010) and those with …

Tectonically, the Australian continent is relatively stable and, as such, it provides a good
platform for studying Late Pleistocene and Holocene sea-level change. The observations …
