This is an agegrid showing the present day age of the oceanic lithosphere around the Australian Continent . The agegrid is created using a global set of seafloor spreading isochrons, reconstructed on the basis of approximately 40,000 marine magnetic anomaly identifications and fracture zones identified from marine gravity anomalies and a global set of finite rotations.
