157 boreholes provide biostratigraphic data for basin-wide correlations. Updated stratigraphic charts and 25 correlation transects visualize correlations across 604 key boreholes. The Australian Ocean Data Network compiled this report to refine a tectonostratigraphic framework.
Use Cases
- Refine regional stratigraphic correlations based on biostratigraphic zonation and borehole logs.
- Assess aquifer extent and variability based on supersequence groupings and thickness data.
- Model groundwater systems using the updated tectonostratigraphic framework aligning geological units with timeframes.
- Validate sequence stratigraphy interpretations using supersequence groupings for Cretaceous to Permian sediments.
Strengths
- Compiles data from 157 boreholes for basin-wide analysis.
- Includes 25 correlation transects visualizing data across 604 boreholes.
- Integrates multiple data types: biostratigraphy, borehole logs, chemostratigraphy, and geochronology.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
