Multimedia products of the bathymetry data from the MH370 Search Area
This is a collection of multimedia products of data visualisations showing sea floor terrain in the MH370 search area and associated public communications regarding the search... -
Classification of Australian clastic coastal depositional environments based...
A statistical assessment of wave, tide, and river power was carried out using a database of 721 Australian clastic coastal depositional environments to test whether their... -
Gradational benthic marine communities in the Early Carboniferous...
Four benthic marine fossil commumtles are recognised in faunas of the Rhipidomella fortimuscula brachiopod Zone of late Visean (Early Carboniferous) age using multivariate... -
Mapping the spatial and temporal variability of the upwelling systems of...
Coast upwelling is important for marine ecosystems and economic, because of its elevated primary and secondary productivity and large fish catch. This study developed a scale-... -
SSCN SEGMENT 2-C Nelson Marine Park Bathymetry Acquisition (20240017S)
This dataset is part of a broader survey carried out by EGS onboard the survey vessel RV Bold Explorer (RV BE) during the SUBCO Subsea Cable Network (SSCN) cable route survey.... -
Pre-cruise Report - Prydz Bay - MacRobertson Shelf and Kerguelen Plateau,...
This record describes the background, aims and methods to be employed in the second AGSO/Antarctic Co-operative Research Centre/ANARE marine geoscience program in Prydz Bay and... -
SI 1042 Lord Mayor Shoal to Pitt Shoals (HIPP) Bathymetry Acquisition (20230021S)
The Lord Mayor Shoal to Pitt Shoals bathymetry survey was acquired for the Australian Hydrographic Office (AHO) during the period 1 Oct 2023 – 30 Nov 2023. This was a... -
Characterization of uranium redox state in organic-rich marine sediments of...
Throughout geological history, marine organic-rich shales show variable but appreciable enrichment in uranium (U), < 5 to > 500 ppm. Here we report the results of high-... -
MODIS Derived Sea Surface Temperature dataset: Seasonal Means
The dataset measures the long-term seasonal means of the sea surface temperature (SST) of ocean surface waters. They are derived from MODIS (aqua) images using NASA's SeaDAS... -
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 the deep ocean: Geoscience Australia and the search for MH370
A short film describing the processes of bathymetric mapping and side scan sonar, used to gather data within the search area for missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370.... -
Kimberley Region and WA Reefs Satellite-Derived Bathymetry Acquisition (20220090C)
The Kimberley Region and WA Reefs Bathymetry was derived by EOMAP form multispectral satellite data from the European Space Agency’s Sentinel-2 satellite sensor. EOMAP was... -
Australia's Near-pristine Estuaries: Current Knowledge and Management
The purpose of this investigation was to collate previously disparate information on near-pristine estuaries and make it widely available for use by managers, researchers,... -
Characterisation and Correlation of Active Hydrocarbon Seepage using...
For the first time in Australia, active present-day hydrocarbon seepage has been imaged on the tropical carbonate Yampi Shelf, in 50 and 90 m water depth. Seepage features... -
The Arrinthrunga Formation: Upper Cambrian epeiric carbonates in the...
The Arrinthrunga Formation (Upper Cambrian) in the Georgina Basin, central Australia, is a complex carbonate and mixed carbonate-siliciclastic sequence deposited in an extensive... -
Diatoms Control Nutrient Cycles in a Temperate, Wave-dominated Estuary...
Diatoms are important primary producers within pelagic, benthic end epiphytic communities and their siliceous frustule leads to rapid sinking to the sediment. As a consequence,... -
Baseline biogeochemical data from Australia’s continental margin links...
Surficial marine sediments are an important source of nutrients for productivity and biodiversity yet the biogeochemistry of these sediments is poorly known in Australia. Seabed... -
Physical Controls on Deep Water Coral Communities on the George V Land...
Dense coral-sponge communities on the upper continental slope at 570 - 950 m off George V Land have been identified as a Vulnerable Marine Ecosystem in the Antarctic. The... -
Stratigraphy of the Cretaceous/Paleogene boundary interval at the Lord Howe...
During Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) Leg 21, Cenozoic and latest Cretaceous sediments were recovered at Site 208 on the Lord Howe Rise, Southwest Pacific. We provide new... -
Collection of depositional environment data from petroleum wells (known as...
A depositional environment is defined as a site where sediments (e.g. detrital, chemical) accumulated, governed by physical, biological, and chemical processes related to modern...
