This is an intriguing and detailed account of the Great Barrier Reef Expedition, originally planned to investigate certain biological problems, and dealing with several matters other than the origin of the reef. This article contains new material and views on the nature and origin of low wooded islands and sand cays. Several other problems, which had been occasionally touched upon by earlier writers, have also been elaborated on. Of particular interest, mention is made of the evidence for uplift along the East Australian Coast, the formation of sand and shingle spits, and the question of cliffing. The main object of this report was to dicuss the evidence for faulting.

ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo di rivista, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perchè ci è sconosciuta. - !! ATTENTION !!: : NOT A BOOK : “estratto” or “stralcio” means simply a few pages, original nonetheless, printed in a magazine. Pages are indicated as in "from” “to", for example: 229/231 means the text comprises three pages (229, 230 and 231). If the magazine that contained the pages is not mentioned, it is because it is unknown to us.
