Fifteen priority species, including 12 birds and 3 cetaceans, were identified for this inventory. This record describes a collated data inventory for the critically endangered Swift Parrot in relation to the Gippsland Offshore Renewable Energy declaration area. The project was conducted for the National Environmental Science Program (NESP) and published by the Australian Ocean Data Network.
The Australian Ocean Data Network published a data inventory for the North-Eastern Siberian Red Knot in 2026. This record is part of a project that identified 15 priority species and evaluated datasets for environmental assessments in the Gippsland offshore renewable energy declaration area. It focuses on locating and assessing the utility of publicly-available occurrence data for regulatory processes.
Isotopic and biomarker analyses of Cambrian to Permian oils and source rocks from the Arafura, Bonaparte, and Canning Basins characterize five distinct petroleum systems. The data, cited in a 1997 APPEA Journal article, includes specific isotopic signatures (e.g., δ13Csat = -32 ‰) and biomarker correlations for systems like Larapintine 1 and Gondwanan 1. It is hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated in June 2026.
Several scenarios of a 3D petroleum systems model for the Vulcan Sub-basin were simulated using PetroMod 3D V.10 software. The modelling results confirm the timing of hydrocarbon generation and present-day maturity from prior work but incorporate PhaseKinetic models for individual source rock formations. Predictions indicate source rocks are still generating and identify potential untested accumulations dependent on fault closure.
Sequence stratigraphic concepts provide a tool to analyse stratal architecture and facies patterns within sedimentary basins. The Australian Ocean Data Network hosts this review, last updated in 2026, which details the application of these techniques to hydrocarbon systems in Australia's Canning and Carnarvon Basins. It explains how changes in sediment accommodation and supply control the distribution of reservoirs, sources, and seals.
A 2026 data inventory from the Australian Ocean Data Network collates publicly-available occurrence data for the critically endangered Australian Gould's Petrel. The inventory was created as part of a rapid exploration project for 15 priority species in relation to the Gippsland offshore renewable energy declaration area. It identifies relevant datasets, their sources, accessibility, and utility for environmental assessments.
Fifteen priority species, including Blue Whales, were identified for a rapid information exploration project related to the Gippsland offshore renewable energy declaration area. The project, conducted for the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water and NOPSEMA, inventoried publicly-available occurrence data to assess its utility for regulatory processes. This specific record describes the data inventory for Blue Whales (Balaenoptera musculus), published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated in June 2026.
A 2017 study by Stalvies et al. integrated remote sensing, geophysical, acoustic, photographic, and geochemical techniques to investigate natural hydrocarbon seepage on the Ashmore Platform in Australia's Bonaparte Basin. The study identified three areas of seepage and provided geochemical evidence linking the hydrocarbons to the Lower Cretaceous Echuca Shoals Formation. This dataset, hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network, presents the findings to reduce charge risk for regional exploration.
A chronosequence study from 0.5 to 10.6 years of restoration at the Moatize coal mine in Mozambique, authored by Sérgio da Costa Dias and last updated in May 2026. It analyzes bioavailable levels of chromium, lead, copper, zinc, and barium alongside soil organic carbon and macro- and mesofauna abundance. The data serves as a baseline for environmental monitoring and policy guidance in a region lacking legislative reference values for these contaminants.
Africa-wide data on Mycobacterium ulcerans occurrence in water and soil and reported human cases of Buruli ulcer. The data is aggregated into a spatial grid of hexagons each measuring 88 x 88 square kilometers. It was authored by Alisa Aliaga-Samanez and last updated on May 18, 2026.
The super-giant Ichthys gas accumulation is estimated to host 12.8 trillion cubic feet of gas and 527 million barrels of condensate. This dataset collates molecular, isotopic, and biomarker data to redefine four petroleum systems in Australia's Browse Basin, a major LNG province. The data was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated in June 2026.
Geochemical data from oils and source rock extracts delineate petroleum systems in the Northern Bonaparte Basin, offshore Northern Australia. The study, published in The APPEA Journal in 2000, focuses on wells located on and between the Laminaria and Flamingo highs. Oils are divided into distinct chemical groups corresponding to reservoir types and show affinities with Jurassic and Cretaceous source formations.
1.7 KB of data supporting the heterologous expression and structural characterization of a polyamide 4-degrading enzyme (Nyl4A_px) from the soil bacterium Pseudoxanthomonas sp. TN-N1. The dataset, authored by Yusuke Saito and last updated in June 2026, details enzyme activity measurements and structural domain predictions. It represents the first reported structural analysis of a PA4-degrading enzyme from a terrestrial source.
A soil landscape map series for central and eastern NSW integrates soil and topographic features into uniform land management units. The Sydney sheet, published by the NSW Department of Environment, Climate Change and Water, describes soils using the Australian Great Soil Group and Northcote classification systems. Related datasets and an interactive spatial viewer (eSPADE) provide additional soil profile data and reports for the area.
4985 feet deep, the O.D.N.L. Penola No. 1 well was drilled between 7th February and 5th May 1961 to test the Coonawarra subsurface structure for petroleum. It documents a geological sequence from Oligocene to probable Upper Jurassic, including the Gambier Limestone, Compton Conglomerate, and formations within the Runnymede and Merino Groups. Minor gas showings were recorded, but the well was abandoned as a dry hole.
The Browse Basin offshore Northwest Australia is a proven hydrocarbon province. Geoscience Australia conducted a multi-disciplinary study analyzing Cretaceous supersequences to assess regional hydrocarbon prospectivity and high-grade areas with increased liquids potential. The study integrated sequence stratigraphy, structural framework, biostratigraphy, well logs, seismic data, palaeogeography, and geochemical analyses to model petroleum systems.
Geoscience Australia's database comprises analytical results for petroleum-related samples, including source rocks, crude oils, and natural gases collected across the Australian continent. The data are produced by techniques like programmed pyrolysis, gas chromatography, and mass spectrometry, sourced from industry reports, government surveys, and open publications. It enables the typing and correlation of petroleum fluids to their source rocks.
The dataset was retired on 16 June 2023 and superseded by a combined record. It provided header, biostratigraphy, organic geochemistry, reservoir, facies, stratigraphy, velocity, and directional survey data for petroleum wells. Data covered offshore and onshore regions, with offshore data entry conducted by Geoscience Australia and onshore data acquired from state geological surveys.
Land and Soil Capability (LSC) mapping provides a regional view of soil limitations across New South Wales. The dataset, version 4.6, classifies over 3000 mapping units into eight capability classes based on eight soil and landscape limitations. It was developed by the NSW Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water, with a planned update in 2026.
Hyperspectral logging data from 13 wells in the southern Georgina Basin characterize prospective hydrocarbon source rocks. The data includes mineralogy, short-wave infrared reflectance, and spectral contrast for middle Cambrian units like the Arthur Creek Formation. Interpretation alongside wireline logs supports differentiation of organic-rich shale units.
