Georgina NE, NT, 2002 (P1022), radiometric line data, AWAGS levelled

The radiometric, or gamma-ray spectrometric method, measures the natural variations in the gamma-rays detected near the Earth's surface as the result of the natural radioactive decay of potassium (K), uranium (U) and thorium (Th). The data collected are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.
 This Georgina NE, NT, 2002 (P1022), radiometric line data, AWAGS levelled were acquired in 2002 by the NT Government, and consisted of 108159 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 80m terrain clearance. To constrain long wavelengths in the data, an independent data set, the Australia-wide Airborne Geophysical Survey (AWAGS) airborne magnetic data, was used to control the base levels of the survey data. This survey data is essentially levelled to AWAGS.

L129 Bowen Basin deep crustal seismic reflection survey, QLD, 1989 Stacked seismic data and images for lines BMR89-B01, BMR89-B02, and BMR89-B03

Geoscience Australia conducted the Bowen Basin Seismic Survey during July to October 1989. The major aim of the seismic survey was to record deep seismic reflection data across the northern part of the Bowen Basin, to test geological (extensional) models for the formation of the Bowen Basin. The deep seismic reflection survey by the BMR recorded 254 km of eight-fold Common-Depth-Point (CDP) seismic data, along three seismic lines.

Earthquake and Tsunami Safety Bookmark

Bookmark developed during the year of the 30th anniversary of the Newcastle earthquake and used to raise awareness of earthquakes and to provide information on what to do in an earthquake. As Geoscience Australia jointly operates the Joint Australian Tsunami Warning Centre with the Bureau of Meteorology, the bookmark also provides information on tsunami safety. Geoscience Australia identifies and characterises potentially tsunamigenic earthquakes and this information is used to initiate the tsunami warning chain.

Sedimentology and Facies Distribution within the Horn Valley Siltstone, Amadeus Basin : A Reconnaissance Study

Exposure of the Horn Valley Siltstone is usually poor, but well preserved material can be obtained from some of the fully cored wells intersecting this interval throughout the Amadeus Basin. In this study, the following cored holes were used: Henbury #4, Henbury #6, Mt Liebig #2, Tempe Vale#1 and Tent Hill #1. I have subdivided the formation into ten informal members, HV1(lowermost) to HV10, which reflect vertical lithofacies variations in a shallow marine shelf environment. These members have been defined primarily from sedimentological and palaeontological information such as the presence or absence of body fossils, mode of preservation, species associations within groups of fossils, presence or absence of bioturbating organisms (trace fossils), lithology and bedding types. It can be inferred that the amount and composition of organic matter preserved in the sediment was determined largely by the concentration of oxygen in the bottom water and the extent to which the sediment was disrupted by burrowing organisms because burrowing and scavenging activities of benthic organisms are controlled by the concentration of oxygen in the bottom water. Organic geochemical data fromTempe Vale #1 and Tent Hill #1 were used to confirm these facies variations.
The transition between HV6 and HV7, which can be recognised easily by the sudden change in shale to carbonate ratio, has been found to coincide with the presence of high organic rich sediments, with recorded TOC values of up to 6.30%.

Ulawun Volcano, New Britain

In January 1970, after a two-year period of inactivity, Ulawun volcano, on the north coast of New Britain, erupted. Ulawun is a stratovolcano built of basaltic and low-silica andesite lava flows and pyroclastic rocks, most of which were erupted from a central vent; many of the lavas were partly fragmented during flow, and some unsorted elastics mav have been deposited by nuees ardentes.

Mt Lloyd, Tas, 1982 (P836), magnetic line data, AWAGS levelled

Total magnetic intensity (TMI) data measures variations in the intensity of the Earth's magnetic field caused by the contrasting content of rock-forming minerals in the Earth crust. Magnetic anomalies can be either positive (field stronger than normal) or negative (field weaker) depending on the susceptibility of the rock. The data are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.
 These line dataset from the Mt Lloyd, Tas, 1982 survey were acquired in 1982 by the TAS Government, and consisted of 774 line-kilometres of data at 500m line spacing and 175m terrain clearance. To constrain long wavelengths in the data, an independent data set, the Australia-wide Airborne Geophysical Survey (AWAGS) airborne magnetic data, was used to control the base levels of the survey data. This survey data is essentially levelled to AWAGS.

The data files are text files in a standard format that cover the same area as standard topographic map areas. Files covering both 1:250,000 (approximately 100 x 150 km) and 1:1,000,000 (approximately 400 x 600 km) map areas are available. There is a 4 minute overlap on all sides of each area. Data format: AUSGeoid98 data files have a header record at the start of each file, to distinguish them from the superseded AUSGeoid93 data files. AUSGeoid98 data files show the geoid-ellipsoid separation to 3 decimal places, while the superseded AUSGeoid93 data files showed only 2 decimal places. AUSGeoid98 deflections of the vertical were computed from the geoid-ellipsoid separation surface, while the AUSGeoid93 deflections of the vertical were computed from OSU91A.

Gravity data measure small changes in gravity due to changes in the density of rocks beneath the Earth's surface. The data collected are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. 
This Ngururrpa Gravity Survey P201560 Spherical Cap Bouguer Anomaly 267GU 1VD is the first vertical derivative of the spheical cap Bouguer anomaly grid for the Ngururrpa Gravity Survey (P201560). This gravity survey was acquired under the project No. 201560 for the geological survey of WA. The grid has a cell size of 0.00466 degrees (approximately 500m). A total of 4965 gravity stations at 2500m spacing were acquired to produce this grid. A Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) process was applied to the original grid to calculate the first vertical derivative grid. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.

Geobiological role of cyanobacterial mats in sedimentary environments: production and preservation of organic matter

Cyanobacterial mats are among the most productive of aquatic photosynthetic systems. They were prevalent during the Precambrian, but now occupy limited, albeit widespread, ecological niches. Organic carbon produced by cyanobacterial mats is, potentially, a source material for kerogen and, later, hydrocarbon formation, a carbon and energy source for biogenic H2S production and metal sulphide deposition, and a reductant for abiogenic sulphide formation. The paper considers the microbiological and environmental constraints on the occurrence, primary productivity, decomposition, and preservation potential of modem cyanobacterial mats. It appears that bacterial decomposition to CO2 and CH4 will proceed at salinities up to halite saturation, even under anoxic conditions, and that substantial preservation will not take place except at salinities beyond this. Anoxic conditions alone will not prevent decomposition of cyanobacterial mat organic carbon. Mat-constructing cyanobacteria appear well-adapted to environments of fluctuating salinity and periodic desiccation. A model that accommodates the environmental limits imposed by the physiology of cyanobacterial primary producers and bacterial decomposers is consistent with the shallow fluctuating saline lake palaeoenvironment invoked to explain some oil shale occurrences.
