The Australian Lithospheric Architecture Magnetotelluric Project (AusLAMP) time series data from Victoria

The Australian Lithospheric Architecture Magnetotelluric Project (AusLAMP) is a collaborative, long-term initiative involving the Australian federal and state/territory governments in conjunction with research organizations. This nationwide project aims to collect long-period magnetotelluric (MT) data at approximately 3,000 sites across the Australian continent, with the objective of mapping its electrical resistivity/conductivity structure. The project provides valuable insights into Australia's lithospheric architecture and tectonic evolution, as well as supporting resource exploration.

The AusLAMP Victoria project was a collaboration between the Geological Survey of Victoria and Geoscience Australia (GA). The data were acquired using Australian National Sounding and Imaging Research Infrastructure (ANSIR)/AuScope and GA's MT instruments from 2013 to 2017. All processed datasets and models were previously published through the associated links in this product.

This release comprises time series data provided in both the original format and the MTH5 hierarchical format. These formats ensure that users have access to the data in its initial format as well as in a self-described format. The original recorded data were converted into MTH5 format using the open-source MTH5 Python package (https://github.com/kujaku11/mth5). The creation of this product was made possible through Resourcing Australia's Prosperity initiative (https://www.ga.gov.au/scientific-topics/resourcing-australias-prosperity).

We acknowledge the traditional landowners, private landholders and national park authorities within the survey region, without whose cooperation these data could not have been collected.

Laser ablation (in situ) Lu-Hf geochronology of epidote group minerals

Epidote group minerals, including allanite, clinozoisite and epidote are common in a range of metamorphic, igneous and hydrothermal systems, and are stable across a wide range of pressure- temperature (<em>PT</em>) conditions. These minerals can incorporate substantial amounts of rare earth elements (REEs) during their crystallization, making them potential candidates for Lu–Hf geochronology to provide age constraints on various geological processes. Here we report on a first exploration into the feasibility of <em>in situ </em>Lu–Hf geochronology for epidote group minerals from various geological settings and compare the results with age constraints from other geochronometers. Magmatic allanite samples from pegmatites and monzogranites in the Fiskenæsset complex, Coompana Province and Qingling Orogen provided dates consistent with magmatic events spanning from ca. 2660 to 1177 Ma. In the Qingling pegmatites, a younger phase of metasomatic allanite was dated at ca. 215 Ma, consistent with the timing of regional REE mineralization. Clinozoisite Lu–Hf dating was explored using a sample from the Yambah Shear Zone. The ca. 430 Ma Lu–Hf age of metamorphic clinozoisite predates garnet and apatite growth at ca. 380 Ma, suggesting the Lu–Hf system can be preserved in clinozoisite during prograde amphibolite-facies metamorphism. Additionally, Lu–Hf dates for hydrothermal clinozoisite and epidote are consistent with the timing of hydrothermal mineralization in a range of settings, demonstrating the utility of the technique for mineral exploration. Despite the current lack of matrix- matched standards, the successful application of laser ablation Lu–Hf geochronology to epidote group minerals offers valuable geochronological insights into various geological processes that can be difficult to access through other geochronometers.

Large earthquake recurrence on the Willunga Fault, South Australia, revisited

In mid-2022 two paleoseismic trenches were excavated across the Willunga Fault, ~40 km south of Adelaide. Since the preliminary results of this investigation were presented at the 2022 AEES conference, dating results have allowed constraints to be placed on earthquake timing. Evidence is preserved for six surface-rupturing earthquakes within the last <em>ca.</em> 150 ka (E1-E6), associated with a slip rate estimated to be in the order of ~65-70 m/Myr. Two additional events are recognised between <em>ca.</em> 150 and 315 ka (E7-E8). A probability density plot indicates distinct peaks at recurrence intervals of ~17 and ~49 kyr. Single-event displacements on individual fault traces of ~0.5-1.7&nbsp;m were measured, consistent with earthquake magnitudes of ~Mw 6.8, and rupture lengths of ~30 km. Stratigraphic relationships and geochronological constraints allow that displacement may have occurred concurrently on faults cutting the colluvial mantle, the bedrock/colluvium interface, and within a hanging wall flexural graben.



Vertical separation of pre-Cenozoic basement rocks across the Willunga Fault increases from north to south. The section of scarp studied here appears more geomorphically ‘youthful’ than further north. In the same amount of time that we recognise six surface rupture events at our site, only two events (consistent in time with E4 and E6) are recognised north of our site, at Mt Bold and McLaren Flat, respectively. A possible explanation is that the gradient in vertical separation between south and north is accommodated by segmented rupture, with the various segments bearing different slip rates, and different earthquake histories.

Australia's Gallium Supply Chain

Australia's Gallium Supply Chain is a national snapshot of the gallium sector as of January 2026 including production, resources and exploration.



Gallium is a critical mineral which is exclusively produced as a by-product – primarily from bauxite processing and, to a lesser extent, from zinc residue processing. Growth in gallium demand is tied closely to its use in light emitting diodes (LEDs), integrated circuits, photovoltaics, neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) permanent magnets used in wind turbines and electric motors. More recently, gallium demand has increased due to its use in compound semiconductors, including gallium arsenide and gallium nitride conductors, which enable high‑frequency, high‑power and high-efficiency electronic devices, critical for telecommunications, defence and aerospace systems.

Climate Vulnerability Assessment: Cattle Tick

The <strong>Climate Vulnerability Assessment</strong> was designed to provide an overview of the impact of future climate change on all stages of production for the commodities and biosecurity risks assessed. The project used multicriteria analysis (MCA) models to produce assessments for the commodities and biosecurity risks in a consistent and comparable way, and a framework was developed to provide a rigorous, flexible and transparent process for assessing vulnerabilities and opportunities to climate change. Details of the approach and the climate data used in the assessments can be found in the <a href="https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/dpi/climate/climate-vulnerability-assessment/publications-and-reports">Methodology Report</a> which also details model exclusions and assumptions.

Assessments were undertaken on commodities grouped into 6 nodes: <em>Horticulture and Viticulture</em>, <em>Broadacre Cropping</em>, <em>Forestry</em>, <em>Extensive Livestock</em>, <em>Marine Fisheries</em>, as well as for a set of biosecurity risks related to these primary industry sectors. The <a href="https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/dpi/climate/climate-vulnerability-assessment/publications-and-reports">Summary Report</a> gives details of the chosen commodities and biosecurity risks and summarises the high-level results.

Results Reports for each commodity and biosecurity risk are being released. Visit the <a href="https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/dpi/climate/climate-vulnerability-assessment">project's web pages</a> to access these reports and for further information.

This dataset contains maps of modelled climate suitability for the <strong>cattle tick</strong> model in the Biosecurity Risks node of the DPIRD Climate Vulnerability Assessment. Maps are provided (in GeoTIFF format) for each element of the model: the climate suitability for each month, climate suitability maps for each phenophase and also for each phenophase/climate variable combination in the model. Data is provided for each of the eight global climate models (GCMs) used in the project, as well as the climate suitability derived from historical observations, along with the ensemble median for each map.

Full-time enrolments in distance education by year of schooling (2011-2024)

Since 1993 some students have enrolled part-time . All enrolments are reported in full-time equivalent units (FTEs) and include full-time and part-time students. 

<strong>Data Notes:</strong>
<ul>
<li>

Distance Education refers to enrolments in Distance Education Centres. It is separate to home learning arrangements made necessary by extraordinary circumstances such as pandemics. 
</li>
<li>

Distance education centres (DECs) provide schooling for students who are isolated or whose special circumstances prevent them from attending a regular school. They operate either as separate schools or as units within regular primary, central and high schools. Students enrolled in DECs are counted in their corresponding years of schooling. 
</li>
<li>

In conjunction with the NSW School of Languages (formerly Open High School), DECs also provide individual subject enrolment, widening study opportunities for secondary students. These students are enrolled and counted at their home schools.
</li>
<li>

Enrolments (FTE) in distance education are recorded mid-year.
</li>
<li>

All enrolments are reported in full-time equivalent units (FTE), and include full-time and part-time students whose main school is the distance education centre.
</li>
<li>

The FTE for students studying less than 10 units, the minimum workload, is determined by the formula: 0.1 x the number of units studied and represented as a proportion of the full-time enrolment of 1.0 FTE.

Additional Supporting Information It is important to note that LGAs and suburbs are not coincident. Suburbs can, and often do, extend beyond LGA boundaries. They are determined using two separate processes. LGAs are assigned under the Local Government Act 1993 and have been proclaimed using either metes and bounds descriptions or registration of public plan in the Registry of Public Surveys. Suburb and Localities are assigned by the GNB under the provisions of the Geographical Names Act. In these cases, care should be taken when relying solely on the list and visual confirmation is recommended.
