Controls on the global distribution of contourite drifts: Insights from an eddy-resolving ocean model
Published 2018-05-01Contourite drifts are anomalously high sediment accumulations that form due to reworking by bottom currents. Due to the lack of a comprehensive contourite database, the link between vigorous bottom water activity and drift ...Open AccessArticle -
New evidence of Hawaiian coral reef drowning in response to meltwater pulse-1A
Published 2017-11-01Fossil coral reefs are valuable recorders of glacio-eustatic sea-level changes, as they provide key temporal information on deglacial meltwater pulses (MWPs). The timing, rate, magnitude, and meltwater source of these ...Open AccessArticle -
2.8 Ga Subduction-related magmatism in the Youanmi Terrane and a revised geodynamic model for the Yilgarn Craton
Published 2019-07-01New studies in the central and southern parts of the Murchison Domain in the Youanmi Terrane, western Yilgarn Craton, reveal previously unidentified igneous rock types in addition to boninitic occurrences similar to those ...Open AccessArticle -
Coral community changes in the Great Barrier Reef in response to major environmental changes over glacial-interglacial timescales
Published 2017-04-15The Ribbon Reef 5 borehole offers a unique record of reef growth spanning the entire history of the northern Great Barrier Reef (GBR). Previous studies have reported the main stratigraphical, lithological and chronological ...Open AccessArticle -
New constraints on the spatial distribution and morphology of the Halimeda bioherms of the Great Barrier Reef, Australia
Published 2016-12-01Halimeda bioherms occur as extensive geological structures on the northern Great Barrier Reef (GBR), Australia. We present the most complete, high-resolution spatial mapping of the northern GBR Halimeda bioherms, based on ...Open AccessArticle
