Referencing
The research programs carried out by these people and institutions - at sea and in laboratories - have made the national mapping of Australian seafloor materials possible. auSEABED incorporates over 320 separate datasets, brought into conformance by dbSEABED software. When using auSEABED grids in reports, publications and posters, reference these investigators as appropriate for the regions of study. If more detail is required to enable referencing, contact Chris Jenkins. [Email]
