Updated 17/10/2025

AGSO's northwest Australian margin project (NWAM) aims to provide a high level understanding of the geological framework of the entire northwest margin of the continent, with particular emphasis on the crustal and basin architecture. The following studies are currently addressing these objectives: 1) ArcView GIS, 2) Potential field and bathymetric grids (2nd version), 3) Regional deep seismic re-interpretation, and 4) Ocean-bottom seismograph velocity models.
