RB 79/00114 Palaeodrainage systems in western South Australia. Their detection by Landsat imagery, stratigraphic significance and economic potential.
Two major palaeodrainage systems of Tertiary age, with watersheds of up to 35 000 square km and channel lengths of 200-250 km, have been recognised and delineated using LANDSAT imagery, during 1:250 000 scale geological mapping in western South...-

RB 81/00032 Stratigraphy and depositional environment of some silcretes in South Australia.
The widespread extent of silcretes in SA is demonstrated through stratigraphic relationships with palynologically dated sequences, and erosion of silcretes. The late Tertiary silcrete dominates the duricrusted landscape. Silica type varies according...-

RB 90/00008 Discussion - Formation and age of dunes in the Lake Eyre depocentres, by H. Wopfner and C. R. Twidale.
Some of the first dates from the Simpson / Tirari Desert are presented. It is argued that Late Pleistocene episodes of dune development are widespread, and may be at least as important as the Holocene episodes in depositing dune sediments and shaping...-
