The inherent asymmetry of extension by detachment leads to contrasting and conjugate
classes of passive margins. Upper‐plate margins comprise crust above a deeper …

DNA from T24, a cell line derived from a human bladder carcinoma, can induce the
morphological transformation of NIH 3T3 cells. Using techniques of gene rescue to clone the …

The Palaeozoic granitic basement of southeastern Australia shows a regular pattern of
apatite fission track ages which is dominated by a rapid decrease in apparent age towards …

Microcontinents are common in the accreted continental geological record, but relatively
rare in modern settings. Many of today's microcontinents are found in the Tasman Sea and …

Evidence from overprinting of magnetizations of Late Permian and Mesozoic rocks and from
the rank of Permian coals and Mesozoic phytoclasts (coal particles) suggests that surface …

Abstract The Tasmantid Seamounts comprise a northerly trending linear chain of submarine
volcanoes that extend over more than 1300 km in the middle of the Tasman Basin, located to …

The South Tasman Rise is a large submarine plateau of continental origin, located south of
Tasmania. In the light of satellite‐derived gravity data and shipboard swath‐bathymetry and …

Abstract The Reinga Basin northwest of the North Island of New Zealand was initially formed
by crustal extension in Cretaceous time. Gravity models suggest up to 35—40% crustal …

Coals of Cretaceous age are preserved within the fill of several Australian sedimentary
basins. Presently, Cretaceous coal is mined in only one area, although numerous coalfields …

This paper updates the models of seafloor spreading magnetic anomalies in the oceanic
lithosphere of the Indo‐Australian Plate and adjacent plates around Australia. The regions …
