Optically stimulated and thermoluminescence ages from relict shorelines, along with accelerator mass spectrometer 14C ages from freshwater molluscs reveal a record of variable moisture sources supplied by northern and southern river systems to Lake Mega-Frome in southern central Australia during the late Quaternary. Additional lacustrine, palynological and terrestrial proxies are used to reconstruct a record that extends back to 105 ka, confirming that Lakes Mega-Frome and Mega-Eyre were joined to create the largest system of palaeolakes on the Australian continent as recently as 50-47 ka. The palaeohydrological record indicates a progressive shift to more arid conditions, with marked drying after …
Use Of 210pb And 137cs To Simultaneously Constrain Ages And Sources Of Post-Dam Sediments In The Cordeaux Reservoir, Sydney, Australia, Ava Simms, Colin Woodroffe, Brian Jones, H Heijnis, Rob Mann, J. Harrison
Use Of 210pb And 137cs To Simultaneously Constrain Ages And Sources Of Post-Dam Sediments In The Cordeaux Reservoir, Sydney, Australia, Ava Simms, Colin Woodroffe, Brian Jones, H Heijnis, Rob Mann, J. Harrison
B. G. Jones
Environmental radionuclides can be employed as tracers of sediment movement and delivery to water bodies such as lakes and reservoirs. The chronologies of sediments that have accumulated in the Cordeaux reservoir in Sydney, Australia, were determined by the rate of change of 210Pbex with depth and indicate slow accretion in the reservoir. The ratio of enrichment of radionuclides in sediment cores to 210Pbex and 137Cs concentrations in a reference soil sample within the Cordeaux catchment indicates that the dominant source of sediment in the Cordeaux reservoir is surface erosion (detachment and removal of sediment at depths less than 30 cm). …
On The Possible Origins Of An Unusual (Mid To Late Holocene) Coastal Deposit, Old Punt Bay, South-East Australia, Brian Jones, Adam Switzer, S Haslett, Dale Dominey-Howes, D Everett, C Courtney, B Mamo, L Strotz
On The Possible Origins Of An Unusual (Mid To Late Holocene) Coastal Deposit, Old Punt Bay, South-East Australia, Brian Jones, Adam Switzer, S Haslett, Dale Dominey-Howes, D Everett, C Courtney, B Mamo, L Strotz
B. G. Jones
An unusual coarse, shelly sedimentary unit is found elevated above present mean sea level in a sheltered pocket embayment at Old Punt Bay in south-eastern Australia. The coarse sediments, diverse microfauna, and large shelly macrofauna of mixed affinity suggest that the deposit is the result of high-energy deposition. The deposit was previously thought to have been deposited 1000-1300 cal bp based on one shell dated using 14C and amino acid racemisation. However, additional 14C dating indicates a likely age of ~2500 cal bp. Regardless of age constraints, the presence of rock-encrusting oyster shells and large articulated bivalves, suggests that the …
Patterns And Rates Of Sedimentary Infill In The Minnamurra River Estuary, South-Eastern Australia, K Panayotou, Colin Woodroffe, Brian Jones, Bryan Chenhall, Errol Mclean, H Heijnis
Patterns And Rates Of Sedimentary Infill In The Minnamurra River Estuary, South-Eastern Australia, K Panayotou, Colin Woodroffe, Brian Jones, Bryan Chenhall, Errol Mclean, H Heijnis
B. G. Jones
This paper presents a revised process-based model that explores aspects of estuarine geomorphology and the rates and patterns of sedimentary infill based upon the Minnamurra River estuary, a mature barrier estuary in south-eastern Australia. The Minnamurra River is located on the south coast of New South Wales and is characterised by three main facies: a marine flood tide delta/barrier, a central lagoon/estuary and a fluvial delta. The sedimentary record in this system was examined in detail to quantify the rate of estuarine infill. This predominantly infilled mature barrier estuary is now largely dominated by river influence. In the early stages …

Contrasting Sedimentation Rates In Lake Illawarra And St Georges Basin, Two Large Barrier Estuaries On The Southeast Coast Of Australia, Colin Murray-Wallace, Brian Jones, Craig Sloss, H Heijnis, B Brooke
Contrasting Sedimentation Rates In Lake Illawarra And St Georges Basin, Two Large Barrier Estuaries On The Southeast Coast Of Australia, Colin Murray-Wallace, Brian Jones, Craig Sloss, H Heijnis, B Brooke
B. G. Jones
Sedimentation rates over the last 100 years within two lagoons on the southeast coast of Australia, Lake Illawarra and St Georges Basin, have been quantified to determine the effects of catchment land use change and native vegetation clearance on infill rates, and spatial variations in the rate at which the estuaries have filled. Both catchments have similar lake and catchment area but have experience different degrees of modification due to land clearing for agriculture practices, urbanisation and industrialisation. Results indicate that in the heavily modified catchment of Lake Illawarra sedimentation rates close to fluvial deltas can be in excess of …

Reconstructing Recent Sedimentation In Two Urbanised Coastal Lagoons (Nsw, Australia) Using Radioisotopes And Geochemistry, Brian Jones, H Heijnis, J. Harrison, Suzanne Hollins, S Hankin, Atun Zawadzki
B. G. Jones
In this study, we combined grain size and geochemical analyses with radioisotope analysis of lead-210 (210Pb), caesium-137 (137Cs) and radiocarbon (14C) ages to reconstruct the sedimentation history of two urbanised coastal lagoons in south-east Australia. Towradgi and Fairy Lagoons were both found to exhibit slow initial sedimentation of less than 1 mm year-1 prior to anthropogenic influences. Land clearing in the catchments increased runoff and erosion in the creeks feeding into the estuaries, and has resulted in progradation of fluvial material into the estuarine systems with a marked increase in sedimentation to between 2 and 7 mm year-1. The upper …

The Sedimentary Record Of Palaeoenvironments And Sea-Level Change In The Gulf Of Carpentaria, Australia, Through The Last Glacial Cycle, Jessica Reeves, Allan Chivas, Adriana Garcia, Sabine Holt, Martine Couapel, Brian Jones, Dionisio Cendon, David Fink
B. G. Jones
Environmental evolution of the Gulf of Carpentaria region, the world's largest tropical epicontinental seaway, through the last glacial cycle has been determined from a series of six sediment cores. These cores form the focus of a multi-disciplinary study to elucidate sea level, climate and environmental change in the region. The sedimentary record reveals a series of facies including open shallow marine, marginal marine, estuarine, lacustrine and subaerial exposure, throughout the extent of the basin during this period. The partial or complete closure of the central basin from marine waters results from sea level falling below the height of one or …
