Geoscience Australia's 2014 collection of marine seismic survey navigation files, updated to include recent openfile surveys. The data is derived from a cleansed collection of P190 navigation files, which follow the UKOOA standard, and includes industry-standard metadata in the attribute tables. It is available in both KML and Shapefile formats for use in various geobrowsers and GIS applications.
IGAD Climate Prediction and Applications Center (ICPAC) provides impact statistics and geographic locations for districts in Somalia affected by Tropical Cyclone Megh in November 2015. The data covers Berbera and Bossaso districts, documenting 132,000 affected individuals and 1,129 destroyed houses across more than 20 specific villages. It captures a rare extreme weather event where localized rainfall reached 300% of the annual average within 24 hours.
Monthly sea surface temperature images derived from MODIS Aqua satellite data between July 2002 and December 2017. The dataset calculates standard deviations for austral seasons across the Australian Exclusive Economic Zone and surrounding waters. This research is supported by the National Environmental Science Program Marine Biodiversity Hub.
Water quality data collected from the Darling Baaka River between 2025 and 2026. The dataset is a continuation of the Darling Baaka River Health Project 2023/25, using a selection of the same sites. It is provided by the NSW Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water and currently includes results from July to December 2025.
Australian Ocean Data Network presents paleoseismic study results for the Akatore Fault in Otago, New Zealand. The dataset likely contains trench and GPR data revealing at least three reverse fault ruptures dated between 13,314 B.C. and 1278 A.D., with calculated slip rates and recurrence intervals. The data suggests the fault exhibits strong aperiodicity of earthquake occurrence.
Experimental data from the RObust BUilding SysTem (ROBUST) project assesses the seismic performance of rocking precast concrete cladding panels. The dataset contains results from a full-scale, three-storey steel frame building subjected to unidirectional and bidirectional ground motions, inducing peak inter-storey drift ratios up to 1.71% and peak floor accelerations up to 0.95 g. Author Rajesh Kumar Shrestha published the findings on figshare in April 2026.
Monthly sea surface temperature images from July 2002 to December 2017 are processed to calculate long-term seasonal means for austral seasons. The dataset covers the entire Australian Exclusive Economic Zone and surrounding waters, with values in degrees Celsius. This research is supported by the National Environmental Science Program (NESP) Marine Biodiversity Hub.
Decadal warming rates for sea surface temperature across 58 Australian Marine Parks, derived from the Sea Surface Temperature Atlas of the Australian Regional Seas (SSTAARS). The dataset covers a 25-year period from March 1992 to December 2016, with trends measured in degrees Celsius per decade. This research was supported by the National Environmental Science Program (NESP) Marine Biodiversity Hub.
From January 18 to March 28, 2012, this dataset was collected during the GPM Cold-season Precipitation Experiment (GCPEx) in Ontario, Canada. It contains manual precipitation measurements, including snow water equivalent and present weather conditions, recorded with a Tretyakov gauge inside a DFIR shield. The data was gathered to address shortcomings in satellite-based snowfall retrieval algorithms.
New York City's 100-year floodplain for the 2080s projects a 58-inch sea-level rise based on a 90th percentile climate scenario. This geospatial dataset merges FEMA's Preliminary Work Map data with projections from the New York Panel on Climate Change. It is provided by the Mayor's Office of Long-Term Planning and Sustainability for long-term urban resilience planning.
A 2014–15 seismic reflection survey (GA-349) by Geoscience Australia was used to reassess the tectonic evolution and petroleum prospectivity of the northern Houtman Sub-basin, offshore Western Australia. The study includes interpretation of the Moho, basement, and major depositional sequences, resulting in a 3D geological model covering the survey area. This work significantly reduced exploration risk in this frontier region of the Perth Basin.
A 2015 marine survey acquired high-resolution bathymetry data over the Gippsland Basin from April 5th to 24th. Geoscience Australia conducted the survey using the MV Duke vessel to collect industry-standard precompetitive data, including Multi-beam echo-sounder (MBES) and sub-bottom profiling (SBP) data. The data aims to support assessments of the basin's CO2 storage potential and sequence stratigraphic studies.
Australian Ocean Data Network provides a geological dataset from the northern Exmouth Plateau. The data includes detailed petrography and microfacies analysis of dredged sedimentary and volcanic rocks, defining seven major lithofacies associations. The samples cover a temporal range from the Late Triassic to the Cainozoic and were collected from water depths between 2000 and 5600 meters.
Geoscience Australia modelled five natural hazards for the Rockhampton Regional Council area under current and a future climate scenario. Outputs include a technical report, hazard maps, and digital spatial data describing tropical cyclone wind, bushfire, storm tide, coastal erosion, and sea-level rise. The project was funded by the National Climate Change Adaptation Research Grants Program to evaluate urban planning practices.
Australian Ocean Data Network developed a trait-based risk assessment framework for marine predators breeding in Australian territory and Antarctica. The framework quantified climate change risk using 25 criteria across vulnerability, exposure, and hazard components, integrating a systematic literature review and expert elicitation. Results identified shy albatross, southern rockhopper penguins, Australian fur seals, and Australian sea lions as species with high climate urgency.
The Vegetation/Ecosystem Modeling and Analysis Project (VEMAP) is a multi-institutional, international effort to compare biogeochemistry and vegetation distribution models. The dataset includes compiled and model-generated long-term data for the conterminous United States, with dates ranging from 1895 to 1996, gridded at 0.5-degree resolution. It contains input data on climate, soils, vegetation, and climate change scenarios, as well as selected model output results.
Central Queensland hosts the 'Arcturus' atmospheric monitoring station, commissioned in July 2010 by Geoscience Australia and CSIRO Marine & Atmospheric Research. The station measures concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane, water vapor, isotopic signatures, and meteorological parameters like wind speed and direction. Data is intended as a prototype reference for monitoring carbon capture and geological storage (CCS) sites.
GRACE and GRACE-FO satellite gravity observations provide monthly grids of terrestrial water storage and ocean bottom pressure anomalies, expressed as equivalent water thickness. The data incorporates glacial isostatic adjustment and standard geophysical corrections, and is available in ASCII, netCDF, and GeoTIFF formats. Version 04 (v04) uses updated corrections and an ellipsoidal correction for Earth's shape.
Victoria's Palaeozoic rock record provides the only well-exposed section across the southern Lachlan Fold Belt and eastern Delamerides. The geological description covers depositional, magmatic, and structural evolution from the Cambrian to the end of the Devonian, including details on volcanic types, deformation events, and significant mineral deposits. This information offers insights into the region's uncertain plate tectonic setting during the Palaeozoic era.
Dereck Mbeh Petiangma published a 14.8 MB dataset package on 2026-04-14. The collection includes geospatial layers such as a DEM, landslide inventory, geology, faultlines, soil depth, extreme rainfall, and OpenStreetMap features. All data is clipped to a 1000-meter buffer around road corridors in Bocas del Toro and Chiriquí, Panama.
