An extended abstract from the Australasian Exploration Geoscience Conference 2019 presents findings from a multi-disciplinary study integrating structural architecture, sequence stratigraphy, palaeogeography, and geochemistry. The study maps the spatial and temporal distributions of Triassic source rocks on the central North West Shelf of Australia, focusing on the Greater Phoenix area across the Bedout, Beagle, and Rowley sub-basins. The abstract was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated in April 2026.
The Arrinthrunga Formation is an Upper Cambrian carbonate and mixed carbonate-siliciclastic sequence from the Georgina Basin in central Australia. It was deposited in a shallow, hypersaline epeiric sea, with sedimentation influenced by algal growth, shoaling, and intermittent emergence. The dataset is provided by Geoscience Australia Data and was last updated in April 2026.
A 28-day survey conducted in September-October 1992 aboard the BMR research vessel Rig Seismic on the NSW continental margin between Wollongong, Sydney, and Newcastle. The dataset was created by a multi-institutional team including the Sydney Water Board, Sydney University, and the Geological Survey of New South Wales. It provides baseline environmental data on sediment composition, contaminants, and non-renewable resources.
Nearly 1.8 million gravity observations underpin this 2019 national grid of Australia, integrating ground stations, airborne surveys, and global marine data. The resulting raster image, with a cell size of approximately 435 meters, maps subsurface density variations in gravity units (µm/s²). Geoscience Australia processed and quality-checked this compilation to reveal geological structures for resource and environmental applications.
Geological data from the margins of the Exmouth and Wallaby Plateaus off northwest Australia. The dataset includes information from 29 sampling stations on the Exmouth Plateau and 12 stations on the Wallaby Plateau and Cuvier Abyssal Plain, derived from seismic profiles and rock dredging. It was published by Geoscience Australia and last updated in April 2026.
Christmas Island, an Australian territory in the Indian Ocean, is the focus of a 1992 geoscience cruise. The project aimed to assess seabed morphology, sediment thickness, and offshore mineral resources like manganese nodules and crusts. Data was collected over 28 days using high-resolution reflection seismic and bathymetric surveys.
A perspective paper analyzing the crisis in Fiji's sugarcane industry. The document details a 63% production decline since 1996, an aging farmer demographic with 74% over 50, and intensifying climate threats. Authored by Shifadjzic Khan and last updated in April 2026, it proposes a strategic blueprint for sector transformation.
A review of Australian data on sedimentary processes, including carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, iron, and silicon diagenesis at the sediment-water interface. The dataset likely contains findings from benthic chamber studies, such as net benthic respiration and nutrient flux calculations, and includes measurements of Total Organic Carbon (TOC) in sediments ranging from <1% to 15% by weight. The data is provided by Geoscience Australia Data and was last updated on 2026-04-20.
South Australia's Willunga Fault, ~40 km south of Adelaide, is the subject of a paleoseismic study. The dataset contains preliminary results from trench excavations, presenting evidence for 3-5 ground-rupturing earthquakes since the Middle to Late Pleistocene. The research was presented at the Australian & NZ Geomorphology Group Conference in September 2022.
Geoscience Australia Data produced a 2026 study assessing the CO2 storage potential of the Early Cretaceous Gage Sandstone in the Vlaming Sub-basin. The analysis integrates 2D seismic interpretation, well log data from 8 wells, and biostratigraphic review to characterize the submarine fan reservoir system. The Gage Sandstone reservoir has porosities of 23-30%, permeabilities of 200-1800 mD, and lies at depths suitable for supercritical CO2 injection.
Over 13000 original tapes of seismic reflection survey data, transcribed to modern media, were collected by the National Coal Board and British Coal Corporation. The data includes observers' logs, surveyors' reports, seismic sections, location data, and processed data from surveys conducted between 1973 and 1994 across various UK areas. British Geological Survey is the custodian of this data, which is stored as SEGY files.
Geoscience Australia Data conducted Survey 114 in 1992 to acquire approximately 3191 km of multichannel seismic data. The project aimed to investigate the geological framework and resource potential of the southern Lord Howe Rise and West Norfolk Ridge region. Data collection occurred over a 21-day period in November and December 1992.
The Lord Howe Rise continental ribbon dataset presents geophysical and geological data related to the Cretaceous fragmentation of eastern Gondwana. It includes marine and satellite geophysical data, dredge samples, and shallow drilling results from the Australian Ocean Data Network. The dataset was presented at the 2016 American Geophysical Union Fall Meeting and was last updated in April 2026.
A methodology for probabilistic rainfall nowcasting, based on a coupling between a stochastic model and a Numerical Weather Prediction model. The hybrid model, named PRAISE-ME, was developed by Davide Luciano De Luca of the University of Calabria and applied to a landslide case study in Montenero di Bisaccia, Central Italy, from March 2006. The model provides quantitative predictions intended for integration into Rainfall-Runoff or Landslide prediction models.
MLB Weather and Ballpark Run Environment Dataset helps answer questions about historical MLB run environments. The dataset, created by Karmane, was last updated on June 11, 2026. It likely contains data on first-pitch weather, ballpark dimensions, roof context, and field-oriented wind components.
A seismic velocity survey of the Associated Australian Oilfields Pickanjinnie No. 1 bore conducted on 12th July 1960 by a Bureau of Mineral Resources party. The bore, drilled to 5218 ft near Roma, Queensland, intersected Mesozoic, Permian, and Timbury Hills Formation strata and produced over 5 million cubic feet of petroliferous gas per day. The dataset likely contains velocity measurements and geological logs from this survey.
Queensland, Australia, hosts a 1959 seismic refraction survey for the Callide Creek 49.8-mile dam site near Biloela. The survey, conducted for the Queensland Irrigation and Water Supply Commission, determined depths to bedrock and estimated Young's modulus. After correcting a systematic 18% low bias, depth determinations were accurate to within 10 feet.
Keppel Bay coastal creek water quality data collected under the Fitzroy agricultural contaminants project. The dataset augments prior limited measurements by the Queensland Environmental Protection Agency. It was consolidated and analyzed by the Australian Ocean Data Network to develop a conceptual model for creek biogeochemistry.
150 days of satellite-derived sea ice data from the Nimbus-5 NEMS radiometer, spanning discrete periods between December 1972 and October 1973. The dataset includes filtered and raw sea ice concentration estimates, brightness temperatures, and associated uncertainty fields, processed with atmospheric correction using collocated ERA5 variables. It was created by Ida Grum-Schwensen Andersen and published in 2026 to extend the microwave satellite climate data record into the early 1970s.
Soluble acidic gases and aerosols (SAGA) were collected using a mist chamber/ion chromatography system and a paired bulk aerosol filter system. The dataset includes in-situ atmospheric distributions of nitric acid and fine aerosol sulfate at approximately 80-second intervals, along with filter-based measurements of soluble ions and light absorption spectra from 300 to 700 nm. The SAGA system is provided by the University of New Hampshire (UNH) and the data is associated with the ORNL_CLOUD organization.
