The Adelaide River Uranium Mine, Northern Territory

Development work and exploratory diamond drilling at the Adelaide River Uranium Mine showed the  presence of an ore shot, known as the Black Lode, which contained about 70 tons per foot depth of ore averaging about 0,5% U308. The shoot was developed to a depth of 200 feet. Most of the developed ore has been stoped and about 3,500 tons of ore from the mine have been treated at Rum Jungle. About 1,500 tons of ore remain broken in stopes but there are no proved ore reserves.
The mineralization is localized by the intersection of shears and beds of sandstone. The evidence suggests that the Black Lode ore shoot continues in depth and that a repetition of the ore shoot is possible. Diamond drilling and development work are recommended.

IMOS - Satellite Remote Sensing - SST - L3S - Multi Sensor - 1 month - day time - Australia

This is a multi-sensor SSTskin L3S product for 1 month of consecutive day-time periods, derived using sea surface temperature retrievals from the VIIRS sensor on the Suomi-NPP satellite and JPSS series of satellites, and AVHRR sensor on the NOAA and Metop series of Polar-orbiting satellites. The sensors and satellite platforms contributing to each file are listed in the sensor and platform global attributes in the file header. The Multi-sensor L3S product is provided as a 0.02deg x 0.02deg cylindrical equidistant projected map over the region 70E to 170W, 20N to 70S. The quality level for each pixel was remapped using the original ACSPO VIIRS and AVHRR L3U quality levels and Sensor Specific Error Statistics (SSES), as described in Griffin et al. (2017) Appendix at http://imos.org.au/facilities/srs/sstproducts/sstdata0/sstdata-references/, before compositing single swaths from the sensors. Each grid cell contains the 1 month average of all the highest available quality SSTs that overlap with that cell, weighted by the area of overlap. Refer to the IMOS SST products web page at http://imos.org.au/sstproducts.html for further information.

IMOS - Satellite Remote Sensing - SNPP - 01 day - Ocean Colour - SST

The SNPP/VIIRS Sea Surface Temperature product is derived from VIIRS 11 and 12 micron spectral bands according to the algorithm described at https://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/atbd/sst/. This is not a GHRSST-quality product, and demanding applications requiring a high standard of accuracy should consider using one of the IMOS GHRSST products in preference. The VIIRS SST is nevertheless useful primarily because it is measured at the same time as the water leaving radiances used to derive the optical properties (eg chl). This means it is both contemporaneous, and has a matching cloud mask, so it is valuable for applications that seek to combine both SST and optical properties (ie Net Primary Productivity variants). The data set provided here matches the Chl_oci product in temporal and spatial extent.

This SRS dataset covers waters around Australia.

IMOS - AusTemp - Sea Surface Temperature

This dataset contains the Sea Surface Water Temperature anomalies (SSTa) from the 1st of January 2012 by comparing the current SST to long-term averages (1993-2003, the “CSIRO Legacy climatology” or 2002-2011, the “IMOS climatology”). The magnitude and duration of anomalously warm sea temperatures correlate well with past coral bleaching events. In cases where SST cannot be calculated due to cloud cover, the grid cell is left blank (white in web plots, transparent in Google Earth) to indicate missing data.

The ReefTemp Next Generation (RTNG) system was implemented and declared operational in the Bureau National Operations Centre (BNOC, formerly National Meteorological and Oceanographic Centre) on 22 October 2013. The system is based on a new state-of-the-art Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS)  1-day L3S night-only Sea Surface Temperature (SST) product, which produces high-resolution satellite-based nowcasts of SST, thermal stress and associated coral bleaching risk over the Great Barrier Reef.

This product follows on from the decommissioned ReefTemp Next Generation a high resolution mapping product that provided information on coral bleaching risk for the Great Barrier Reef region. The ReefTemp Next Generation system was developed by the Bureau of Meteorology for eReefs, under the National Plan for Environmental Information (NPEI) initiative. A research Version 1 (V1) system, available from 2007, was the result of a collaborative project between the Bureau of Meteorology, CSIRO Marine and Atmospheric Research and the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority.

IMOS - Ocean Radar - Newcastle HF ocean radar site (New South Wales, Australia) - Real-time sea water velocity

The Newcastle (NEWC) HF ocean radar system covers an area of the Central Coast, New South Wales, an area subject to the variability of the East Australian Current (EAC) and its coupling with coastal winds, tides, and waves. In this area the EAC separates from the coast and generates several eddies which control the larval species and the higher marine species and ecosystems in which they forage.

The NEWC HF ocean radar system consists of two SeaSonde crossed loop direction finding stations located at Sea Rocks (32.441575 S 152.539022 E) and Red Head (33.010245 S 151.727059 E).  These radars operate at a frequency of 5.2625 MHz, with a bandwidth of 25 KHz, a maximum range of 200 Km and a range resolution of 6 Km.  Within the HF radar coverage area surface currents are measured.
