149,832 people were impacted by a magnitude 5.5 earthquake near Sarangani, Philippines on June 08, 2026. The dataset likely contains geospatial information on the event's epicenter and affected population. It was produced by the World Food Programme's Automated Disaster Analysis and Mapping (ADAM) system for humanitarian emergency response.
Maps of modelled climate suitability for cool-region wine grapes were produced by the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD). The dataset includes GeoTIFF files for overall suitability, individual phenophases, and variable combinations across eight global climate models and historical observations. Results were released as part of a broader Climate Vulnerability Assessment project for primary industries.
A 2025 study from Quaternary Science Reviews uses high-resolution bathymetry to model landscape change during the flooding of the Bass Strait land-bridge after the Last Ice Age. The analysis, published by authors including David M. Kennedy and Bruno David, finds shoreline transgression rates could exceed 30 meters per year, drowning 15 km of land within a human lifetime. This provides a benchmark for understanding the impact of rapid sea-level rise on human migrations and connectivity in southeastern Australia.
A collection of GeoTIFF maps from the DPIRD Climate Vulnerability Assessment project models climate suitability for warm-region wine grapes. The dataset includes maps for overall suitability, individual phenophases, and phenophase-climate variable combinations. Data is provided for eight global climate models, historical observations, and ensemble medians.
East Antarctica's Sabrina Coast, from 112°E to 122°E, features submarine canyons and ridges formed by sediment processes. The dataset, published in Marine Geology in 2020, describes a mixed contourite-turbidite system seaward of the Totten Glacier. It likely contains geomorphological features indicating cycles of glacial and ocean interaction.
Six bi-decadal means of projected sea surface and ocean bottom temperature and salinity for the Northwest Atlantic from 1986-2005 to 2080-2099. The dataset is generated by the North Atlantic Ocean-ice Downsling System (NAODS), which downscales the global CCSM4 climate model output. It is provided by Fisheries and Oceans Canada.
Preliminary results from the RV Polarstern expedition PS141 (EASI-3) conducted from 6 February to 14 April 2024. The dataset contains hydroacoustic mapping of submerged glacial features on the East Antarctic continental shelf, prepared for the Australian Antarctic Research Conference in November 2024. It reveals iceberg scours, mega-scale glacial lineations, subglacial basins, and grounding zone wedges.
Beach ridges at Keppel Bay preserve a sediment record trapping an estimated 79% of the Fitzroy River's long-term average annual bedload. Optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) ages indicate periods of rapid coastal progradation approximately 1500, 1000, 450, and 230 years before present. The dataset documents a change in sediment provenance linked to post-clearing erosion and a reduction in accumulation rates since around 1000 yr BP.
UKCP09 provides past observed climate data and future scenario projections for the UK, produced by the UK Met Office. The projections improve upon the previous UKCIP 2002 effort by incorporating more recent scientific understanding and providing higher spatial resolution. A probabilistic approach is used to deal with uncertainties in 21st-century climate changes.
A descriptive inventory of the Arafura Basin's hydrogeology, grouped into themes including location, geology, and groundwater management. The dataset, provided by the Australian Ocean Data Network, was last updated in June 2026. It covers a large intracratonic sedimentary basin along Australia's northern margin, with a sedimentary record spanning over 250 million years from the late Neoproterozoic to the early Permian.
A 140,000 square kilometre intra-cratonic basin in the central Northern Territory, part of the Centralian Superbasin. This dataset contains descriptive attribute information grouped into themes including location, demographics, geology, hydrogeology, and land use, published by the Australian Ocean Data Network. The data was last updated on 2026-06-23.
Spatial boundaries for 2D reprocessed seismic surveys conducted in Australian offshore areas from 2010/11 to 2022/23. The data is derived from the National Offshore Petroleum Information Management System (NOPIMS) and is managed by the Australian Ocean Data Network. It was last updated on June 16, 2026.
High-precision measurements indicate denitrification efficiencies of 75-85% in muddy sediments covering about 70% of Port Phillip Bay's seafloor. The dataset contains integrated fluxes of biogenic N2, ammonia, nitrate, and nitrite from benthic chamber experiments, showing a stoichiometric C:N ratio of 5.7. Data was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated in 2026.
Eight global climate models and historical observations provide climate suitability maps for walnut production. The Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD) produced this assessment using multicriteria analysis models for the Horticulture and Viticulture node. Maps are provided for overall suitability, individual phenophases, and phenophase-climate variable combinations.
Three submerged, living patch coral reefs covering 80 km² were discovered in the southern Gulf of Carpentaria, Australia. The reefs were mapped using multibeam swath sonar, seabed sampling, and underwater video, with their upper surfaces at a mean depth of 28.6±0.5 meters. This dataset, hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network, suggests a late Quaternary phase of reef growth under different climate and sea level conditions.
An international effort led by Geoscience Australia and JAMSTEC proposes to drill a deep stratigraphic well up to 2500 meters below the seafloor on the Lord Howe Rise. The project aims to core Cretaceous and older sediments to understand continental ribbon evolution, Cretaceous paleoclimate, and sub-seafloor microbial life over a 100-million-year timeframe. Preparations included a 2016 seismic survey mapping crustal structure and a planned 2017 survey for geotechnical data.
A 2019 study presented at the Australasian Exploration Geoscience Conference integrates structural architecture, sequence stratigraphy, palaeogeography, and geochemistry. It maps the spatial and temporal distributions of Triassic source rocks in the central North West Shelf, including the Bedout, Beagle, and Rowley sub-basins. The data was contributed by the Australian Ocean Data Network.
An atmospheric greenhouse gas monitoring station began operation in July 2010 near Emerald, Queensland. The station is part of a collaborative project between Geoscience Australia and CSIRO Marine and Atmospheric Research to establish a high-precision monitoring facility in a priority geological carbon dioxide storage region. Its primary purpose is to field test new monitoring technology and demonstrate best practice for regional baseline atmospheric monitoring.
The Australian Continuous Plankton Recorder survey measures plankton communities as a guide to ocean health. The biomass index is derived from dry weight analysis of plankton samples collected from Australian waters. This joint project by CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere and the Australian Antarctic Division aims to map biodiversity and document changes in response to climate change.
A codebook containing 118 specific visual themes within 19 categories, developed for content analysis of news imagery. The themes were derived from coding 350 images associated with 200 randomly-selected U.S. print news stories about climate change, involving over 175,000 separate codings by three coders. The codebook was created by Stacy Rebich-Hespanha and colleagues, with the final categories and themes resulting from multiple codings and exhibiting excellent inter-coder reliability.
