John Michael Arthur Chappell, 1940–2018
John Chappell was a geoscientist whose work on Quaternary sea-level change, landscapes, and climate helped to link Earth’s ice volume, sea levels, and past climates. Elected a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science in 1992, he made enduring contributions in geomorphology, coastal science, and environmental history. Colleagues describe him as a polymath, gifted with a prodigious memory, always ready to explain complex ideas with clarity, and …
Erosion rates of rock surfaces associated with Aboriginal rock art, Burrup Peninsula, Western Australia
Global stages, regional stages or no stages in the Plio/Pleistocene
Plio-Pleistocene correlation and global change
Subaerially exposed continental shelves
An integrated terrestrial paleoenvironmental record from the Mid-Pleistocene transition, eastern North Island, New Zealand
Revised correlation of the Haritalyangar magnetostratigraphy, Indian Siwaliks
Recurring global sea-level changes recorded in shelf deposits near the G/M polarity transition, Wanganui Basin, New Zealand
Reconciliaion of late Quaternary sea levels derived from coral terraces at Huon Peninsula with deep sea oxygen isotope records
Integrated tephrochronology and magnetostratigraphy for cyclothemic marine strata, Wanganui Basin
An Integrated Latest Quaternary (Stage 3 to Present) Paleoclimatic and Paleoceanographic Record from Offshore Northern New Zealand
Paleoceanographic and onshore paleoclimatic changes during the last 59,000 yr are established from three deep-sea sediment cores off northeast New Zealand using an integrated log of sediment texture, CaCO 3 content, palynology, and planktonic and benthic foraminiferal δ 18 O and δ 13 C data, together with dated silicic tephras. These records from the isotopic stage 4-3 boundary to the present record northern New Zealand vegetation history, change…
Interpreting coseismic deformation using Holocene coastal deposits, Wellington, New Zealand
Landscape and Soil Development on Monaro Basalt West of Nimmitabel, New South Wales
Prolonged stability of the southern tableland of NSW, developed on early Tertiary Monaro basalt, is evident from weak landscape dissection and numerous small lakes. However, poorly developed soils and weathered zones are inconsistent with prolonged Cainozoic weathering or formation under climates substantially different to the present. Thin Holocene sediments are also at variance with the sizes of the lake basins. Low depositional landforms, term…
Year Paleomagnetic Record from New Zealand Loess
A paleomagnetic record of secular variation has been obtained from a 17.4-m-long core drilled from loess in North Island, New Zealand. Three dated rhyolitic tephra occur in the loess core at depths of 1.5, 3.4,and 13.0 m, with ages of 22,500, ≧42,000, and 370,000 years, respectively. The base of the core is estimated to be 500,000 years old, which makes this the longest continuous loess sequence yet described from the Southern Hemisphere. Two per…
Climate and Sea Level During Oxygen Isotope Stage 7b
Strata at Landguard Bluff, near Wanganui, New Zealand preserve a clear record of relative sea-level changes during oxygen-isotope stage 7. Two relative high sea-level stands (during stages 7a about 210,000 yr ago and 7c about 240,000 yr ago) are separated by a relative low sea level (stage 7b) that was at least 32 m lower than present. Pollen analysis of sediment deposited during stage 7b indicates climate at the time was up to 3°C cooler than pr…
