RB 84/00079 Wardang Island - A refuge for Marginopora vertebralis.
As part of studies on Stratigraphy and chronology of coastal Quaternary sediments in SA, M. vertebralis was dated using radiocarbon 3 and amino acid racemization dating. Results suggest reef connecting Wardang and Goose Islands, rather than being...-

RB 87/00114 Amino acid racemisation dating of the Older Pleistocene marine beds, Redcliff, northern Spencer Gulf, South Australia.
The extent of racemization (epimerization) for a range of amino acids in specimens of the fossil bivalve Anadara trapezia suggest a Penultimate Interglacial age (oxygen isotope stage 7) of approximately 200,000 years B.P., consistent with the...-
