The effect of land clearance in the Mallee region on River Murray salinity...
Widespread clearing of native vegetation has dramatically increased recharge in the Mallee region by up to two orders of magnitude. The resultant rising water tables have caused... -

Structural and stratigraphic framework of groundwater occurrence and surface...
The Murray Basin is one of the most important agricultural regions in Australia. After just 100 years of European development, salinity problems threaten the regional economy... -

Irrigation recharge
Available data about recharge from irrigation areas in the Mallee and Riverine Plains zones of the Murray-Darling Basin are reviewed. The need for clear understanding of how... -

Palynostratigraphy of the Bookpurnong Beds and related Late Miocene-Early...
Fossil spores and pollen preserved in the Late Miocene-Early Pliocene Bookpurnong beds and correlatives of the central west Murray Basin allow a new palynological zone to be... -

The hydrogeology of the Murray Basin, southeastern Australia
Soil degradation is the most serious environmental issue facing Australia today, and a major problem is the land salinisation and degradation of surface water quality in the... -

Kimberlite and kimberlitic intrusives of southeastern Australia: a review
Fifteen widely separated occurrences of kimberlite and kimberlitic rocks are now known in southeastern Australia. Those that have been satisfactorily dated isotopically give... -

Heavy minerals in the late Cainozoic sediments of southeastern South...
Concentrations of heavy minerals in the prograded coastal sequence of southeastern South Australia are generally low, partly as a result of the high content of locally derived... -
