RB 97/00048 Loxton Irrigation Area. Groundwater modelling of irrigation management options.
The groundwater model described in this report was used to quantify the changes in salt loads to the River Murray and induced discharge to the degraded river flats of proposed future management options for the Loxton Irrigation Area. The options...-

RB 99/00009 Loxton irrigation area. Groundwater modelling of ground water / river interaction.
A combined groundwater and solute transport model (MODFLOW and MT3D) was constructed of the Loxton Irrigation Area to determine the future impacts on groundwater levels and salt loads to the river and floodplain for a range of local irrigation...-

RI 041 Hydrocarbon Potential of Western Murray Basin and Infrabasins
The Murray Basin is a shallow, saucer-shaped Tertiary basin covering an area of 120 700 square miles extending from the western foot of the Snowy Mountains in New South Wales and Victoria to the Mount Lofty Ranges in South Australia. Geophysical work...-

RB 00687 Australian Oil Corp.'s North Renmark no. 1 well. Subsurface stratigraphy and micropalaeontology study.
North Renmark 1 was drilled 6 miles north of Renmark, to a total depth of 4018 feet. The well penetrated a sequence of Tertiary, Cretaceous and Permian rocks, mostly of marine origin, and has given the most complete section so far known from the...-

RB 2022/00003 Zircon provenance and sedimentary transport processes – implications for the late Neogene evolution and heavy mineral deposits of the western Murray Basin, South Australia.
Strandlines or elevated shorelines, located across the Murray Basin in south-eastern Australia, trace the preserved remnants of former emergent coastlines that developed during the Late Miocene (c. 7 to 4 Ma) marine regression. Strandline traces...-

RB 2002/00008 Palynological analyses and dating of Early Oligocene-Early Pliocene deposits in the western Murray Basin, South Australia.
A palynological analysis made of 25 cutting samples from three TEISA program stratigraphic drillholes (PIVA 1, PIVA 5 and PIVA 10) revealed distinctive microfloristic assemblages. Dinoflagellate cysts offer a reliable method for distinguishing the...-

RB 2003/00013 North-western Murray Basin geological synthesis, South Australia.
The Murray Basin is an intracratonic basin filled with Cainozoic fluvial to shallow marine sediments. Deposition in the Eocene and early Oligocene was characterised by floodplain and swamp deposits, emplaced with occasional interbeds of shelly clays...-

RB 2000/00004 Mallee region groundwater modelling - Report no. 1.
A five-layer finite difference groundwater flow model (MODFLOW) was developed for the Mallee Region to determine the impacts of irrigation on water levels and salinities. The model was calibrated for steady-state conditions over the entire modelled...-
