Uranium series dating of Great Artesian Basin travertine deposits: Implications for palaeohydrogeology and palaeoclimate

Travertine deposits precipitated by groundwater discharging from the Great Artesian Basin (GAB) are widespread in central Australia and have the potential to provide a record of palaeohydrogeology and palaeoclimate. The GAB is one of the largest artesian basins in the world and a relationship between travertine deposits and recharge sites has potential importance regarding the time and position of past climate events, given that the travertines...
