Shrinkage Cracks: Desiccation or Synaeresis?
P. S. Plummer,Victor A. Gostin +1 more
TL;DR: Shrinkage cracks can form not only at the sediment-air interface by desiccation processes but also at sediment-water interface or substratally by synaeresis processes.
44. cenozoic paleoceanography in the southwest pacific ocean, antarctic glaciation, and the development of the circum-antarctic current
James P. Kennett,Robert E Houtz,Peter B. Andrews,Anthony R. Edwards,Victor A. Gostin,Marta Hajós,Monty Hampton,D. Graham Jenkins,Stanley V. Margolis,A. Thomas Ovenshine,Katharina Perch-Nielsen +10 more
TL;DR: The circulation patterns were largely controlled by the development of the Circum-Antarctic Current south of Australia as discussed by the authors, and the separation of Australia from Antarctica led to a fundamental change in the world's oceanic circulation and its climate that marks the onset of the modern climatic regime.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modern carbonate and terrigenous clastic sediments on a cool water, high energy, mid‐latitude shelf: Lacepede, southern Australia
TL;DR: The Lacepede Shelf and narrow Bonney Shelf are contiguous parts of the south-eastern passive continental margin of Australia as discussed by the authors, and the shelves are open, generally deeper than 40 m, covered by waters cooler than 18°C and swept by oceanic swells that move sediments to depths of 140 m.
Journal ArticleDOI
A chemostratigraphic overview of the late Cryogenian interglacial sequence in the Adelaide Fold-Thrust Belt, South Australia
David M. McKirdy,Jamie M. Burgess,Nicholas M. Lemon,Xinke Yu,Andrew M. Cooper,Victor A. Gostin,Richard J.F. Jenkins,R. A. Both +7 more
TL;DR: Within the Neoproterozoic sequence of the Adelaide Fold-Thrust Belt, South Australia, two of the most severe ice ages in Earth history (Sturtian and Marinoan) are recorded in the glacigenic rocks which mark the base and top of the 4.5 km-thick Umberatana Group, the focus of the present chemostratigraphic study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of the circum-antarctic current.
James P. Kennett,R. E. Houtz,P.B. Andrews,A. R. Edwards,Victor A. Gostin,M. Hajos,M.A. Hampton,D. G. Jenkins,Stanley V. Margolis,A.T. Ovenshine,K. Perch-Nielsen +10 more
TL;DR: Deep-sea drilling in the Southern Ocean south of Australia and New Zealand shows that the Circum-Antarctic Current developed about 30 million years ago in the middle to late Oligocene when final separation occurred between Antarctica and the continental South Tasman Rise.
