A Geoscience Australia survey identified volcanic cones, flows, and sills on the Lord Howe Rise seafloor. The data includes at least two distinct volcanic ages: Miocene-Pliocene (approximately 4-7 Ma) cones and Eocene-Oligocene features. Findings were presented at the Australian Earth Sciences Convention in July 2010.
Miocene-Pliocene and Eocene-Oligocene volcanic features were identified on the seafloor of the northern Lord Howe Rise. The dataset includes analysis of seismic profiles and swath bathymetry from a Geoscience Australia survey. Findings were presented at the Australian Earth Sciences Convention in July 2010.
Palynological data from four fully cored boreholes in the central west Murray Basin provides a biostratigraphic framework for groundwater studies. The analysis, augmented by cores from other boreholes, identifies pollen and dinoflagellate zones from the Eocene to Miocene epochs. This work was contributed by the Australian Ocean Data Network.
Palynological analyses from four fully cored boreholes in the central west Murray Basin provide a biostratigraphic framework for groundwater-related geology. The study, augmented by analysis from other boreholes, was conducted by the Australian Ocean Data Network. It focuses on sediments from the Early Cretaceous to the Middle Miocene, including the Geera Clay aquitard and Renmark Group aquifers.
Volume 15, issue 3 of the AGSO Journal contains nine peer-reviewed scientific articles covering topics from cleavage classification to paleontological records. The journal issue was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated in April 2026. It serves as a collection of primary research in the earth sciences.
Volume 15, issue 3 of the AGSO Journal compiles nine peer-reviewed research articles on Australian earth sciences. The collection was published by the Australian Geological Survey Organisation, now Geoscience Australia, and is hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network. The platform's metadata indicates a last update in April 2026.
Evidence from earthquake focal mechanisms and in-situ stress measurements indicates substantial horizontal compression across the Australian continent. Data includes reliable focal mechanism determinations from eight earthquakes since 1967 and in-situ measurements from mines, tunnels, and quarry floors across multiple states. The dataset is provided by the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated in April 2026.
Submarine volcanoes in the New Georgia Group forearc region of the Solomon Islands are documented. The report details specific features like Kavachi volcano, which rises nearly 1000 m from the sea floor, and other potential volcanic sites. This information was compiled by the Australian Ocean Data Network and the record was last updated in April 2026.
Solomon Islands submarine volcanoes in the New Georgia Group forearc are documented, including the frequently active Kavachi volcano and the elusive Cook volcano. The dataset compiles reported volcanic activity, bathymetric survey findings, and geological composition from sources like the Australian Ocean Data Network. Information was last updated in April 2026.
Manus Island in Papua New Guinea was surveyed for its geology and bauxite deposits. The report describes three separate nodular bauxite occurrences derived from volcanic flows and tuffaceous rocks. It was produced by the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated in April 2026.
Australian Ocean Data Network provides a geological reconnaissance report detailing nodular bauxite deposits on Manus Island. The document describes three separate surface occurrences derived from basaltic flows and tuffaceous rocks, analyzing their formation and potential extent. The report was last updated in April 2026.
Seismic reflection profiles and bathymetric soundings reveal the structure of the Huon Gulf continental shelf and submarine canyons. The data includes details on the New Britain Trench, which is over 8000 meters deep, and the Markham submarine canyon system. This information was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network, with a record last updated in April 2026.
Stratigraphic and structural analysis of the southern McArthur Basin in Australia's Northern Territory. The Australian Ocean Data Network published this geological bulletin describing four major stratigraphic groups with thicknesses up to 4500 meters. The report details rock formations, depositional environments, and structural features like the Batten Fault Zone.
Format descriptions for digital marine seismic and navigation data from the Australian Geological Survey Organisation. The documentation details standard and optional trace header entries, including SHOT, SPN, and FFID numbers, with conventions for data released before and after 1993. It was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network, with a record last updated in April 2026.
Summer 2006/07 data from marine seismic survey GA302 over the Capel and Faust Basins on the Lord Howe Rise. The report describes velocity data from seismic reflection, refraction, and potential field surveys conducted by Geoscience Australia. It aims to improve sediment thickness estimation confidence for evaluating petroleum prospectivity in frontier basins.
Two dry-season surveys document biogeochemical properties of the water column and underlying sediments in the Fitzroy Estuary and Casuarina Creek. The data supports research into sediment, nutrient, and agrochemical pathways in macrotidal estuaries facing ecological change from agricultural activities. The Australian Ocean Data Network published this report, with a platform record last updated in April 2026.
Three discrete depositional systems (A-C) are distinguished within the Eumeralla Formation, with sandstone bodies up to 70 meters thick. The Australian Ocean Data Network published this analysis of Aptian-Albian aged outcrops in the eastern Otway Basin of southern Australia. It models sediment transport from volcanic complexes and basement blocks across the rift basin.
Geoscience Australia produced spatial datasets modeling five natural hazards under current and future climate conditions for the Rockhampton region. The project, funded by a National Climate Change Adaptation Research Grant, assessed tropical cyclone wind, bushfire, storm tide, coastal erosion, and sea-level rise. The technical report and associated data were published in 2026.
Terrace riser heights of approximately 3 meters indicate past earthquake events exceeding magnitude 7. This dataset contains geomorphological analysis and Holocene uplift rate estimates for the Lae urban area, focusing on the Ramu-Markham Fault Zone. It was presented at the 2023 Australian Earthquake Engineering Society Conference and published by the Australian Ocean Data Network.
Geoscience Australia acquired approximately 6000 km of 2D seismic data from the Capel and Faust basins between December 2006 and January 2007. The RV Tangaroa conducted a 2007 marine reconnaissance survey, collecting gravity, magnetics, multibeam sonar, and sub-bottom profiler data alongside seafloor samples. These datasets are managed by the Australian Ocean Data Network to assess petroleum potential and inform environmental planning.
