High-precision measurements of N2 fluxes indicate denitrification occurs across 70% of Port Phillip Bay's seafloor. Integrated fluxes of biogenic N2, ammonia, nitrate, and nitrite show a stoichiometric C:N ratio of 5.7 in muddy sediments. The data, sourced from the Australian Ocean Data Network, reveals denitrifying efficiencies of 75-85% at moderate organic carbon loadings.
Broome, Western Australia was the site of a seismic reflection survey conducted by the Bureau of Mineral Resources in 1954 and 1955. The survey was part of a general investigation of the Canning Basin, aimed at determining sediment distribution south of the Fenton Fault. The work indicated a sedimentary thickness of at least 6000 feet, with up to 10,000 feet possible, and suggested subsurface formations are likely folded and faulted.
Earthquake hypocenters for all events detected by the Montserrat Volcano Observatory seismic network from July 1995 to February 2018. The dataset includes Origin Time, Latitude, Longitude, Depth, Hypocenter Errors, RMS, and the number of stations used for each location. It was produced by the British Geological Survey under NERC Grant NE/L002582/1.
High-resolution daily downscaled CMIP6 climate projections over Hawai'i for maximum temperature, minimum temperature, and precipitation. The dataset is produced by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Ames Research Center and complements downscaled projections for the contiguous United States. Data is available via Amazon S3 with no stated restrictions on use.
Daily, monthly, and annual downscaled CMIP6 climate projections over the contiguous United States at 30-arcsecond horizontal resolution. The dataset includes variables for maximum temperature, minimum temperature, precipitation, and vapor pressure. It is produced by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Ames Research Center.
A 690,000-year geological record from southeast South Australia documents shoreline progradation and sea-level changes. The dataset, from a drilling program by Geoscience Australia, reveals a regressive sequence of beach, marine, and aeolian sands. It suggests at least 20 major high sea-level stands during this period.
Proterozoic to early Carboniferous rock units from the Granites-Tanami region, linking northwestern and central Australia. The dataset describes two main tectonic units, the Granites-Tanami Block and the Birrindudu Basin, and provides interregional correlations with other Australian geological provinces. It is provided by Geoscience Australia Data and was last updated in April 2026.
Mandatory annual greenhouse gas emissions data from Canadian facilities emitting 10 kilotonnes or more of CO2 equivalent. The dataset is provided by Environment and Climate Change Canada and includes two primary files: one detailing emissions by gas type from 2004 onward, and another detailing emissions by source category from 2022 onward. Data is updated to the present year and includes emissions in tonnes and CO2 equivalent units.
The Bowen Basin in Queensland, Australia, is the focus of this dataset. It contains palynological and geochronological data from 11 tuff and 18 sedimentary core samples from the APLNG Meeleebee 5 well. The work, published by Geoscience Australia, attaches numeric CA-IDTIMS ages to palynostratigraphic units like the APP5 zone, aiding correlation of coal-bearing sequences.
Western Australia's Canning Basin is a large intracratonic basin with a sedimentary sequence up to 18 km thick. The dataset describes five major periods of Phanerozoic sedimentation, including marine and continental phases, and identifies potential hydrocarbon and groundwater resources. It was published by Geoscience Australia and last updated on 2026-04-20.
Ashmore Reef, a tropical marine reserve, experiences a 4.75-meter semi-diurnal tide moving ~7.5 kmΒ³ of water over the reef on a spring tide. The dataset contains observed water quality data from 1991, with an intensive program since 1999, measuring parameters like temperature, salinity, pH, and dissolved oxygen in regional, lagoonal, and well water. Data was published in the journal 'The Beagle' and is provided by the Australian Ocean Data Network.
Australian Commonwealth offshore jurisdictions and a selection of onshore sites provide the geographic scope for this borehole database. It contains header and directional survey data from boreholes drilled by Geoscience Australia, its predecessors, and various regulatory authorities. The data supports research and exploration activities but Geoscience Australia is not the authoritative reporting source for all records.
Preliminary satellite-based damage assessment for the M7.2 Haiti earthquake that struck on 27 August 2021. The data covers the GrandeβAnse, South, and Nippes departments of Haiti and was published by ACAPS. The dataset was last updated on 14 May 2026.
Palynological investigation of dredged samples from the Great Australian Bight continental slope correlates bulk palynofloras with the Maastrichtian to earliest Paleocene Forcipites longus and Manumiella druggii zones. The data, sourced from Geoscience Australia, indicates these zones are characteristic of the upper Potoroo Formation, which is widespread in the Bight and Duntroon Basins. Environments of deposition ranged from paralic to marine, with evidence of lowland temperate rainforests on the Australian side of the rift during the Campanian-Maastrichtian.
An econometric Vector Autoregression model analyzes dynamic interactions between life expectancy, COβ emissions, and health system metrics in Morocco from 2000 to 2020. The dataset, authored by Ahmed Bouzit and uploaded to figshare, proposes an early warning system for climate-related health risks. It is a 13.8 KB XLSX file.
Early to Middle Cambrian sedimentation from about 540 Ma to at least 510 Ma is preserved in the Stansbury Basin, with a distinctive rift phase from 526 Ma. Geoscience Australia Data compiled this framework, which details palaeogeographic zonation from shallow shelf carbonates to extensional rift facies and back-arc basin environments. The description highlights potential for Mississippi Valley-type, stratabound copper, and volcanogenic massive sulphide mineralisation, referencing recent sub-economic discoveries.
Eastern Australia's Permian coal-bearing basins, covering an area equivalent to Europe's Carboniferous coal basins from Scotland to the western Soviet Union. The dataset contains two major databases from BMR and CSIRO, summarized in 42 plates and dozens of line drawings. It describes stratigraphy, structure, and chemical properties of coals across three tectonic basin groups.
Geoscience Australia and JAMSTEC proposed a deep stratigraphic drilling project on the Lord Howe Rise continental ribbon in the southwest Pacific. The proposal, submitted to the International Ocean Discovery Program in 2015, aims to core sediments up to 2500 meters below the seafloor to study tectonic evolution, Cretaceous paleoclimate, and sub-seafloor microbial life. Preparations included seismic surveys in 2016 and 2017 to map crustal structure and acquire geotechnical data for planned drilling in 2019 or 2020.
Queensland, Australia, faces saltwater intrusion in coastal aquifers due to agricultural and industrial groundwater use. The dataset likely contains information on monitoring, predictive modeling, and management techniques such as artificial recharge and usage restrictions. It is provided by Geoscience Australia Data and was last updated in April 2026.
32,741 Sentinel-1 A/B SAR images were analyzed to determine annual melt and freeze onset dates for 105,432 glaciers in the Hindu Kush Himalayas. This dataset provides a detailed, region-wide record of glacier surface melt duration for the calendar years 2017-2020. The analysis covers a total glacierized area of 83,102 square kilometers.
