New Guinea is a mountainous island in a tectonically active setting with regions
experiencing rapid uplift rates as shown by the celebrated emergent coral reef terraces of …

This thesis aims to establish how the late Cenozoic oblique convergence of the Pacific-
Caroline and Australian plates has affected the tectonic history of the eastern Bird's Head …

Since~ 25 Ma ago the plate margin between the Australian plate and the Philippine Sea and
Pacific-Caroline plates in northwestern New Guinea has been undergoing oblique …

Abstract The island of New Guinea is the result of continent-arc collision that began building
the island's Central Range during the late Miocene. Recent studies have shown that rapid …

Abstract The Paleozoic to Early Mesozoic Pacific-facing active margin of East Gondwana
has been shown to extend into the Kemum Block of northern Bird Head Peninsula (western …

Most of the Cenozoic tectonic evolution in New Guinea is a result of obliquely convergent
motion that led to an arc-continent collision between the Australian and Pacific Plates. The …

Repeated episodic uplift at Huon Peninsula is represented by regressive terraces cut into
raised late Quaternary reef tracts. Up to six regressive terraces occur on the Holocene reef …

Late Quaternary uplift of coral terraces varies along the coast at northeast Huon Peninsula,
Papua New Guinea, but the uplift rate has been assumed to be constant at any given locality …

Palaeomagnetic results from the Bewani–Torricelli Arc complex of the North Sepik region,
Papua New Guinea, provide new information about latitudinal movement of the region …

Well‐preserved mid‐late Holocene coral reefs are exposed in low coastal cliffs in the vicinity
of the Madang lagoon on the north coast of Papua New Guinea. Results from U/Th and 14C …
