Journal ArticleDOI
Anthropogenic marker evidence for accelerated sedimentation in Lake Illawarra, New South Wales, Australia
Bryan E Chenhall,I. Yassini,A. M. Depers,G. Caitcheon,Brian G. Jones,G. E. Batley,G. S. Ohmsen +6 more
TL;DR: The chronology of near-surface sediments in Lake Illawarra has been investigated using radiocarbon dating and anthropogenically derived substances including trace metals, ash, and137Cs as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heavy metal concentrations in lagoonal saltmarsh species, Illawarra region, southeastern Australia
TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that heavy metal contents in saltmarsh substrates are up to 200 times greater than at localities on the south coast of NSW, where heavy metals are concentrated in the horizontal stems of Sarcocornia and the leaves of Suaeda, but both are lower than levels in Triglochin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ostracoda in Lake Illawarra: Environmental factors, assemblages and systematics.
I. Yassini,Brian G. Jones +1 more
TL;DR: Major controls of the distribution pattern and abundance of living ostracod populations in Lake Illawarra, a coastal lagoon south of Wollongong, New South Wales, are salinity and the benthic flora.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ash distribution and metal contents of Lake Illawarra bottom sediments
TL;DR: The distribution of anthropogenically derived ash and metal contents of Lake Illawarra bottom sediments have shown that elevated concentrations of trace metals, particularly Zn, are linked to ash concentrations as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ostracod fauna associated with sublittoral kelp forest vegetation at Windang Island, New South Wales, Australia
TL;DR: The distribution of the more abundant ostracod species reflects the energy levels within the environment, with a greater proportion of smooth-shelled forms occurring in the higher-energy zones at shallow depths.
