It has been appreciated since the first geological report by Johnson, Hiern and Steel (RB 51/00136) that the filling of the proposed Chowilla Dam would cause some flushing downstream of saline groundwater present in sands beneath the Murray River...

This report completes a trilogy which surveys the regional groundwater situation along the River Murray, upstream of Blanchetown as far as the N.S.W, Victorian border. The area covered in the present report lies upstream of Kingston on Murray. The...

This report describes the results of geological investigations carried out on the right bank of the River Murray, at and adjacent to Tilmy Flats. A summary of the work is as follows: 8 shallow observation wells to detect lateral movement of...

This report deals with the regional stratigraphy of surficial deposits in the region of the Murray Basin and adjoining Gambier Embayment of the Otway Basin. The aim is to place deposits described in selected earlier publications of anthropologists,...
