I took a bit of interest in the subsea area a little to the South of that, near Robe. Where the next volcano is going to form.

And it shows grassland at sea in the Great Australian bight.

The one in the 2nd post? It also shows Adelaide surrounded by desert. I presume it shows conditions when sea levels were much lower, but it isn’t from the first link, so I don’t now what the point was.

The article in the first link is very interesting, even if they do use SydHarbs as a unit of volume.

Must be using not the SI system but the SH.

It’s just a little ahead of its time.

Reality will catch up with the map when the Chinese owners take possession.

I think you’d need the Dutch to grow grass in the bight.
