The Corangamite region has formed through landscape-building episodes of the past 600 million years (Ma) in a variety of environments from the deep sea to explosive volcanoes. Landscapes continually evolve and processes such as earthquakes, landslides, and even saline groundwater discharge are manifestations of this process. The region has a diverse range of landforms within three major geomorphic units (i.e. Western Uplands, Southern Uplands and Western Plains). |
