Geoscience Australia Data provides marine geological data for the Huon Gulf region, last updated in 2026. The description details a semi-enclosed oceanic basin dominated by the New Britain Trench, which is over 8000 metres deep. Seismic reflection profiles reveal a young, constructional continental shelf composed of deltaic deposits and several submarine canyons with steep axial gradients.
A project funded by the National Climate Change Adaptation Research Grants Program produced spatial datasets modeling natural hazards for the Rockhampton Regional Council area. Geoscience Australia utilized hazard modeling techniques to develop outputs including a report, hazard maps, and digital spatial data. The work considers tropical cyclone wind, bushfire, storm tide, coastal erosion, and sea-level rise under current and a future climate scenario.
In July 2010, Geoscience Australia and CSIRO Marine & Atmospheric Research commissioned the 'Arcturus' atmospheric monitoring station in central Queensland. The station measures concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), water vapour, the isotopic signature of CO2, and meteorological parameters like wind speed and direction. Data is intended to act as a reference for monitoring carbon capture and geological storage (CCS) sites and to model contributions from natural and anthropogenic sources.
A 2026 publication from Geoscience Australia Data containing nine peer-reviewed research articles. The collection covers topics including mineral deposit formation, landscape evolution, seismicity, and paleontological records across various Australian regions. The dataset is provided as PDF and HTML files.
A report from two dry-season surveys in Keppel Bay and Casuarina Creek, Australia, detailing biogeochemical properties of the water column and underlying sediments. The data was produced by Geoscience Australia and last updated in May 2026. It addresses research questions on sediment, nutrient, and agrochemical pathways in a macrotidal estuary system.
The Glenelg Hopkins Catchment Management Authority area in Victoria, Australia, is covered by this dataset mapping potential terrestrial Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems (GDEs). The Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action created it using a GIS overlay model with satellite, geological, and groundwater data from circa 1995 to 2005. It identifies landscape locations where ecosystems are likely dependent on groundwater, serving as a first-step screening tool.
TRMM Precipitation Radar Power and Reflectivity L1C 1.5 hours V7 (TRMM_1C21) provides Level 1C radar reflectivity data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission satellite. The dataset contains the effective radar reflectivity factor (Zm) at 13.8 GHz without atmospheric attenuation correction, offering a three-dimensional view of precipitation distribution over land and ocean. Its specifications changed after a satellite boost in August 2001, affecting swath width and horizontal resolution.
Potential Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems (GDEs) are identified across Victoria's Corangamite CMA using a GIS overlay model integrating satellite, geological, and groundwater data from circa 1995-2005. The Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action produced this dataset as a first step in locating ecosystems potentially reliant on groundwater. The mapping indicates locations but does not quantify the degree of dependence or groundwater usage.
Potential Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems (GDEs) are identified for the North East Catchment Management Authority area in Victoria. The mapping was developed by the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action using satellite remote sensing, geological, and groundwater data in a GIS overlay model. The core data used in the modelling is largely from circa 1995 to 2005.
375-meter resolution satellite data from the VIIRS sensor aboard NOAA-20 detects fire locations and thermal anomalies in 6-minute swaths. The product includes 26 science dataset layers analyzing atmospheric conditions like radiance and brightness temperature, as well as fuel type. Each data swath covers an area approximately 3,060 by 3,060 kilometers.
The Mallee Catchment Management Authority area in Victoria, Australia, is covered by this dataset of potential Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems (GDEs). It was created by the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action using a GIS overlay model with satellite remote sensing, geological, and groundwater monitoring data from circa 1995 to 2005. The mapping identifies landscape locations where ecosystems are likely to be at least partly dependent on groundwater, serving as a first step for further assessment.
VIIRS/NPP Active Fires 6-Min L2 Swath 375m V002 is a satellite-derived geospatial product detecting thermal anomalies. It provides 6-minute swath data at 375-meter resolution from the Suomi NPP satellite, designed for continuity with MODIS fire products. The dataset includes 25-26 science variables analyzing atmospheric conditions and fuel type to identify fire location and intensity.
Potential Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems (GDEs) are identified across Victoria using a GIS overlay model integrating satellite remote sensing, geological, and groundwater monitoring data. The dataset specifically covers the Port Phillip and Westernport Catchment Management Authority area and was produced by the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action. The mapping, last updated in April 2026, represents a statewide screening analysis to flag ecosystems likely dependent on groundwater.
Australian Ocean Data Network provides descriptive attribute information for groundwater features in the Arafura Basin. The basin's sedimentary record spans over 250 million years, from the late Neoproterozoic to the early Permian. Groundwater for remote communities like Maningrida is sourced from fractured sandstone aquifers up to 100 metres deep.
Sounder SIPS provides the AQUA AIRS IR-only Level 2 CLIMCAPS Cloud Cleared Radiances dataset. It contains calibrated, geolocated infrared radiances from the AIRS grating spectrometer aboard the EOS Aqua satellite, representing what would be observed under clear skies. The dataset includes retrieved profiles of temperature, water vapor, ozone, carbon monoxide, and methane, with a horizontal resolution of 50 km.
Australian Ocean Data Network provides high-precision measurements of nitrogen fluxes in Port Phillip Bay sediments. The dataset includes direct determinations of biogenic N2, ammonia, nitrate, and nitrite fluxes from benthic chambers, with denitrification rates and efficiencies reported. It was last updated on 2026-05-05.
Beach ridges at Keppel Bay preserve a sediment record from the historical period back to middle Holocene times. The ridges comprise fine, well-sorted sand eroded from the Fitzroy River catchment and reworked by currents, waves, and wind. Australian Ocean Data Network hosts this dataset, which was last updated in May 2026.
Supplementary PDF files for a research article on the accelerating ice loss of the South Col Glacier on Mt. Everest. The files likely contain supporting data and analysis for the study, which used the world's highest ice core and automatic weather stations. The dataset was authored by Mariusz Potocki and is licensed under CC BY 4.0.
High-resolution bathymetry data underpins a study of landscape change during sea-level rise in the Bass Strait region. The analysis finds shoreline transgression rates exceeding 30 m/yr, indicating 15 km of land could drown within a human lifetime. This dataset provides a benchmark for understanding land-bridge flooding and its impact on human migrations.
Geoscience Australia and JAMSTEC lead an international proposal for deep stratigraphic drilling on the Lord Howe Rise continental ribbon. The dataset likely contains planning documents, seismic survey results, and site characterization data for a 2019/2020 drilling campaign targeting Cretaceous sediments and basement rocks. Preparations include 2D seismic reflection and refraction surveys conducted in 2016 and a planned 2017 geotechnical survey.
