March 29 to June 18, 2013 data contain digital instantaneous precipitation rate (DPR) and storm total accumulation (DTA) estimates derived from four NEXRAD S-Band radars. This dataset was collected during the Iowa Flood Studies (IFloodS) field campaign to support ground validation for the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission. The data are provided in NIDS binary format by the GHRC DAAC.
GPM Ground Validation CARE Satellite Overpass GCPEx Images consist of satellite overpass imagery collected during the GPM Cold-season Precipitation Experiment (GCPEx) in Ontario, Canada, from January 15 to February 28, 2012. The dataset was created by the GHRC DAAC to address limitations in the GPM snowfall retrieval algorithm by providing coordinated satellite tracks from DMSP satellites 15-19. It includes a list of starting overpass times per satellite and day.
GPM Ground Validation CAX1 Radar CFradial format OLYMPEX dataset contains radar parameters from a SELEX Meteor 60DX10 Compact Weather radar. Environment and Climate Change Canada operated the radar from Vancouver Island during the OLYMPEX field campaign. Data are available in netCDF-4 format covering November 14, 2015 through April 1, 2016.
A compilation of seafloor spreading magnetic data confirms the pattern of continental separation between Australia and Antarctica. The dataset includes critical data collected during the 1986 R/V Rig Seismic cruise and characterizes a phase of slow spreading with half-rates below 4.4 mm/year. This work was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network.
May 9, 2014 through June 14, 2014 data was collected during the Integrated Precipitation and Hydrology Experiment (IPHEx) in North Carolina. The dataset contains high-sensitivity optical and tipping bucket rain gauge measurements from NASA's ACHIEVE mobile laboratory, providing precipitation rate, cumulative precipitation, and temperature. It is managed by the GHRC DAAC and serves as ground validation for the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission.
A 2026 case study by the Australian Ocean Data Network assesses the Early Cretaceous Gage Sandstone for CO2 storage. The analysis integrates 2D seismic interpretation, well log data from 8 wells, and biostratigraphic review of 6 wells to map the reservoir's properties and extent. It characterizes a submarine fan system covering approximately 23,000 km2 in the offshore southern Perth Basin.
2-meter horizontal resolution bathymetry and seafloor habitat maps for shallow waters (0-25 meters) of the Cocos (Keeling) Islands Marine Park. The data was processed by EOMAP using proprietary software and a physics-based inversion method on multispectral satellite imagery. These geospatial layers provide an environmental baseline for monitoring and managing the Indian Ocean Territories Marine Parks.
Geoscience Australia's Exploring for the Future program and Western Australia's Exploration Incentive Scheme integrated datasets to improve geological understanding of northern Australia. The data focuses on the onshore Canning Basin, which covers approximately 530,000 km² and includes Australia's longest onshore seismic line, 18GA-KB1, and the deep stratigraphic well Waukarlycarly 1. The dataset was last updated on 2026-04-20.
The Eucla Basin along Australia's southern margin, covering approximately 1,150,000 square kilometres, contains descriptive hydrogeological and geological attribute information. The dataset, provided by Geoscience Australia Data, groups topics into themes like location, geology, hydrogeology, groundwater management, and land use. It describes the basin's Cenozoic marine sediments, major subdivisions, and sedimentary units like the Wilson Bluff Limestone and Nullarbor Limestone.
Seismic reflection data show two major sedimentary basins containing more than 5 seconds TWT (> 9 km) of sediments. Four seismic megasequences (MS4 to MS1) are identified, bounded by basement, unconformities, and the seafloor. The data was published by Geoscience Australia Data and was last updated on 2026-04-20.
Geoscience Australia Data provides a geological study of the Lambert Glacier-Amery Ice Shelf system's evolution in Prydz Bay. The analysis, based on Ocean Drilling Program data, describes changes in ice flow and sediment composition from the Early Pliocene to the mid Pleistocene, including a compositional shift around 1.1 million years ago. The stratigraphy indicates extreme ice advances became rare after the mid Pleistocene.
Research from the Australian Ocean Data Network provides geological information from the margins of the Exmouth and Wallaby Plateaus off northwest Australia. Data includes rock samples from 41 dredging stations, revealing Middle Triassic to Tertiary sequences. The study was published externally and last updated in April 2026.
A 28-day marine survey conducted in 1992 aboard the BMR vessel Rig Seismic on the NSW continental margin between Wollongong, Sydney, and Newcastle. The project collected baseline environmental data on sediment distribution and composition, involving personnel from the Sydney Water Board, Sydney University, and the Geological Survey of New South Wales. Its primary objectives were to monitor anthropogenic contributions and assess non-renewable resources in the offshore Sydney Basin.
Geoscience Australia Data provides a descriptive inventory for the Sydney Basin, a geological structure formed from the Late Carboniferous to Middle Triassic periods. The dataset groups attributes into themes including hydrogeology, groundwater management, land use, and geology, with a focus on the basin's widespread coal deposits. It was last updated on 2026-04-20.
Northern Australia provides biomarker data from a 1.64-billion-year-old marine basin. The dataset, published by Geoscience Australia, reveals the ecological structure of mid-Proterozoic marine communities. It includes molecular fossils indicating anoxic, sulphidic, and sulphate-poor deep waters.
Geoscience Australia Data provides a hydrogeological inventory for two small, shallow sedimentary basins formed during the Late Cretaceous rifting of Australia and Antarctica. The dataset groups descriptive attributes into themes including location, geology, hydrogeology, groundwater management, and land use. It was last updated on 2026-04-20.
Geoscience Australia Data's inventory describes the McArthur Basin's groundwater features across 11 thematic groups, including hydrogeology, geology, and land use. The basin is a Paleoproterozoic to Mesoproterozoic formation with a thickness estimated at 10,000 to 12,000 meters, reaching 15,000 meters in some areas. Its southeastern extension connects with the Isa Superbasin, forming the world's largest lead-zinc province.
Antarctic continental margin and adjoining ocean basins are mapped for geomorphic features at scales of 1:1-2 million. The dataset identifies 27 geomorphic units, with polygons digitized by hand in ArcGIS based on bathymetry from GEBCO08 and ETOPO2 satellite data. It was created by the Australian Ocean Data Network, with modifications made since original publications in 2009 and 2014.
50 sonobuoy recordings from a 2006/07 survey provide P-wave velocity estimates for sedimentary layers in the Capel and Faust Basins. Data includes gravity and magnetic anomaly measurements, used to model sediment thickness reaching up to 5 km in some areas. The survey was conducted by Geoscience Australia approximately 800 km east of Australia in water depths of 1500-2000 meters.
Geoscience Australia Data provides a hydrogeological inventory for the Surat Basin, a sedimentary basin in Australia. The dataset contains descriptive attributes grouped into themes including location, geology, hydrogeology, groundwater management, and land use. It was last updated on 2026-04-20.
