Geomorphology and Habitats of the Lord Howe Island Shelf
Flythrough movie showing the bathymetry of the shelf surrounding Lord Howe Island (NSW), with examples of seabed habitats and biota. The bathymetric image is derived from merged... -
Still Images and Videos from Tasmanian Shelf survey
The Tasmanian Shelf survey was conducted on the Challenger in collaboration with the Tasmanian Aquaculture and Fisheries Institute between the 13-16th June, 2008 and 23rd... -

The Lord Howe Island survey SS06-2008 in April 2008 aboard the RV Southern Surveyor was a collaboration between the University of Wollongong and Geoscience Australia. The survey... -
Video and still images from SOL4769 (Carnarvon Shelf)
The Carnarvon Shelf Survey (SOL4769, GA survey #0308) was conducted on the R.V. Solander in collaboration with the Australian Institute of Marine Science between 12 August and... -
Including biogeochemical factors and a temporal component in benthic habitat...
Mapping of benthic habitats seldom considers biogeochemical variables or changes across time. We aimed to: (i) develop winter and summer benthic habitat maps for a sandy... -
Mapping and characterising soft-sediment habitats, and evaluating physical...
A series of short field surveys in Jervis Bay, New South Wales, were undertaken by Geoscience Australia staff as part of the Surrogates Program in the Commonwealth Environmental... -
Novel method to concurrently sample the planktobenthos and benthos
The planktobenthos is an important area with unique environmental conditions and represents the immediate link between the benthos and the water column. Despite its close links... -
Australian Marine Video and Imagery
Unlike land based environments, relatively little is known about what the seafloor around Australia looks like or has living on it. Geoscience Australia undertakes a range of... -
Jervis Bay Infaunal species level data
Geoscience Australia carried out marine surveys in Jervis Bay (NSW) in 2007, 2008 and 2009 (GA303, GA305, GA309, GA312) to map seabed bathymetry and characterise benthic... -

On the Use of Abiotic Surrogates to Describe Marine Benthic Biodiversity
A growing need to manage marine biodiversity at local, regional and global scales cannot be met by applying the limited existing biological data sets. Abiotic surrogacy is... -
