Comment on "Reassessment of the Maximum Fault Rupture Length of Strike-Slip...
Mignan et al. (2015) estimated the maximum rupture lengths for strike-slip faults, by applying a multisegment rupture method, and calculated new Mmax values, by applying... -
Household resilience to flooding: the experience of two floods in Brisbane...
In January 2011 severe flooding resulted in over 17000 homes inundated in Brisbane and Ipswich. Two years later a smaller flood event also inundated homes. Geoscience Australia... -
Applications of Geophysical Information to the Design of a Representative...
Management of the marine environment in Australia's Exclusive Economic Zone is addressed by an Oceans Policy that was put forward by the government in 1998. The policy is being... -
Tsunami hazard and loss on the global scale
Tsunamis are infrequent events with the power to cause massive loss of life, large economic losses, and cascading effects such as destruction of critical facilities. The... -
Cenozoic Volcanism of the Capel-Faust Basins, Northern Lord Howe Rise
A recent survey by Geoscience Australia acquired new exploration data and samples in the frontier offshore Lord Hose Rise (LHR) Capel-Faust region. This survey identified a... -
Atmospheric Tomography: A Bayesian inversion technique for determining the...
A Bayesian inversion technique to determine the location and strength of trace gas emissions from a point source in open air is presented. It was tested using atmospheric... -
A 1500 Year Record of Coastal Sediment Accumulation Preserved in Beach...
In this study of the beach-ridge plain at Keppel Bay, on the central coast of Queensland, we examine ridge morphology, sediment texture and geochemistry. We build a detailed... -
Ripple cross-laminated sediments on the East Antarctic Shelf: evidence for...
Biosiliceous sediments sampled from a submarine valley system on the continental shelf of East Antarctica contain intervals of ripple cross-lamination interspersed with... -
Groundwater and Geological Storage of Carbon Dioxide
The geological storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) is the process whereby CO2 captured from power plants or other industrial facilities is transported by pipeline to a suitable... -
Structural and Tectonic Synthesis for the Perth Basin, Western Australia
The Perth Basin is localised by reactivation of Neoproterozoic shear zones on the western margin of the Archaean Yilgarn Craton in Western Australia. While Ordovician to... -
Optical Spectra of Candidate Southern Hemisphere International Celestial...
Furthering our continuing program of spectroscopic observations we present redshifts for 126 radio quasars. Data were obtained with five large telescopes, the 3.58 m New... -
Small Angle Neutron Scattering Signature of Oil Generation in Artificially...
We have demonstrated for the first time the application of a small angle neutron scattering (SANS) technique for the precise determination of the onset of hydrocarbon transport... -
Geochemical Mass Transfer Patterns as Indicators of the Architecture of a...
Outstanding exposure across the Panorama district, in the Archean Pilbara block of Western Australia, reveals a cross section through a complete volcanic-hosted massive sulfide... -
Large-scale exploration targeting for uranium mineral systems within the...
The Eromanga Basin has the potential to contain significant sandstone-hosted uranium mineralisation. Publicly available geophysical and geochemical datasets have been integrated... -
Archean Layered Mafic-Ultramafic Intrusions in the West Pilbara Craton,...
Considerable exploration interest has been generated by the platinum-group element (PGE) and Ni-Cu potential of the Archean layered mafic-ultramafic intrusions in the West... -

New national geoscience datasets in Australia: geology, geophysics and geochemistry
New National Geoscience Datasets in Australia: Geology, Geophysics and Geochemistry In 2006, the Australian Government announced a new Energy Security Initiative, which led to... -
AAGD07: A new absolute gravity datum for Australian gravity and new...
The current Australian gravity datum, Isogal84, is defined by the Australian Fundamental Gravity Network (AFGN). The AFGN consists of more than 950 stations at over 250... -
Risks Posed to the Antarctic Marine Environment by Acoustic Isntruments, a...
The risks posed by a range of acoustic scientific instruments were assessed by the construction of matrices of scale and likelihood. We recognized six levels of impact ranging... -
Shear Wave Velocity measurement at Australian Ground Motion Seismometer...
Near-surface shear-wave velocity profiles were acquired at eighteen permanent and temporary seismograph sites in Western Australia, South Australia, Victoria and New South...
