GSQ Walsh Red River total count grid geodetic

This GSQ Walsh Red River total count grid geodetic is an airborne-derived radiometric total count window countrate grid for the Walsh, Red River, Qld, 1992/93 survey. 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 total count (K), total count (U) and total count (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 GSQ Walsh Red River total count grid geodetic has a cell size of 0.00083 degrees (approximately 90m). The data are in units of counts per second (cps). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 1992 by the QLD Government, and consisted of 54145 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 100m terrain clearance.

Mineral Resource Potential Assessment of the Woomera Prohibited Area, South Australia

In June 2010, Geoscience Australia was tasked by the Australian Government Department of Resources, Energy and Tourism to undertake a qualitative mineral resource [1] potential assessment of the Woomera Prohibited Area (WPA) in central South Australia. The assessment was undertaken in collaboration with the Department of Primary Industries and Resources, South Australia (PIRSA).
The mineral resource potential assessment determines the deposit types likely to occur within geological frameworks known or interpreted to exist in the WPA. Geologically prospective areas that contain particular types of deposits are identified and ranked low to high potential, and similarly the level of certainty categorised from lowest (A) to highest (D). 
[1] 'Mineral resource' is used in this report and maps in the sense defined by United States Geological Survey as a concentration of naturally occurring solid, liquid, or gaseous material in such form and amount that economic extraction is currently or potentially feasible.

Total oxygen uptake and TCO2 release from core incubation experiments on marine sediments - Caswell Sub-basin, Browse Basin Marine Survey (GA0345/GA0346/TAN1411)

Geoscience Australia (GA) conducted a marine survey (GA0345/GA0346/TAN1411) of the north-eastern Browse Basin (Caswell Sub-basin) between 9 October and 9 November 2014 to acquire seabed and shallow geological information to support an assessment of the CO2 storage potential of the basin. The survey, undertaken as part of the Department of Industry and Science's National CO2 Infrastructure Plan (NCIP), aimed to identify and characterise indicators of natural hydrocarbon or fluid seepage that may indicate compromised seal integrity in the region. 
The survey was conducted in three legs aboard the New Zealand research vessel RV Tangaroa, and included scientists and technical staff from GA, the NZ National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research Ltd. (NIWA) and Fugro Survey Pty Ltd. Shipboard data (survey ID GA0345) collected included multibeam sonar bathymetry and backscatter over 12 areas (A1, A2, A3, A4, A6b, A7, A8, B1, C1, C2b, F1, M1) totalling 455 km2 in water depths ranging from 90 - 430 m, and 611 km of sub-bottom profile lines. Seabed samples were collected from 48 stations and included 99 Smith-McIntyre grabs and 41 piston cores. An Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) (survey ID GA0346) collected higher-resolution multibeam sonar bathymetry and backscatter data, totalling 7.7 km2, along with 71 line km of side scan sonar, underwater camera and sub-bottom profile data. Twenty two Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) missions collected 31 hours of underwater video, 657 still images, eight grabs and one core.
This catalogue entry refers to the results (total oxygen uptake rates and carbon dioxide fluxes) of core incubation experiments undertaken on surficial sediments after their extraction from the seafloor.

Preparing for a category 5 cyclone landfall in Western Australia

Consider you are responsible for providing an emergency response in Karratha. There is a category 4 cyclone sweeping towards the coast and Bureau of Meteorology forecasts indicate the cyclone will intensify to category 5 before landfall. The last time a category 5 cyclone came close to Karratha was in 1999, when Cyclone John passed 80 km east of Karratha, sparing it the worst winds. If it had not turned to the southeast prior to landfall, damage to Karratha would have been much worse. Karratha has also grown substantially since then, with close to half the residential buildings constructed after 1997. 
As a first responder, are you prepared for the consequences of a direct strike? Do you even know what the extent of the impacts might be? What will Karratha look like immediately after the cyclone passes? If emergency preparation decisions were based on past experience, they would likely fall well short of the required action to minimise impacts.
The Severe Wind Hazard Assessment project, funded through the WA Natural Disaster Resilience Program, endeavours to provide emergency managers with realistic, modelled scenarios of cyclone impact in WA communities to inform local, regional and state planning for cyclone risk. By analysing hypothetical scenarios, the Department of Fire and Emergency Services can identify and address gaps in the understanding of the impacts of a cyclone, and improve decision-making processes at coordination and control levels. 
A first step in this process is to develop hypothetical severe tropical cyclone footprints for WA communities. We use a stochastic tropical cyclone model to generate a catalogue of cyclone events, then select TC tracks meeting the criteria for the exercise: events with specific intensities passing directly over communities. Here we present the hazard footprints of these hypothetical storms, and a preliminary analysis of the impacts on residential buildings.

Fluid Inclusion Petrography and Microthermometry for LBD2, Birrindudu Basin

Geoscience Australia’s Exploring for the Future program provides precompetitive information to inform decision-making by government, community and industry on the sustainable development of Australia's mineral, energy and groundwater resources. By gathering, analysing and interpreting new and existing precompetitive geoscience data and knowledge, we are building a national picture of Australia’s geology and resource potential.

The Paleo to Mesoproterozoic Birrindudu Basin is an underexplored frontier basin located in northwestern Northern Territory and northeastern Western Australia. The Birrindudu Basin is a region of focus for the second phase of the EFTF program (2020–2024) as it contains strata of similar age to the prospective McArthur Basin, South Nicholson region and Mount Isa Province, but remains comparatively poorly understood.

Geoscience Australia have undertaken (via the service provider, FIT, Schlumberger) Fluid Inclusion Petrography and Microthermometry analysis of samples for the drillhole LBD2, Birrindudu Basin, located in the northwest Northern Territory (Company reference number MT#F1230005a).

This eCat Record  accompanies the report containing the results of fluid inclusion stratigraphy on this drillhole (eCat record 148975)

L134 Otway Basin seismic survey, VIC, 1991 Stacked seismic data for lines BMR91-T2, BMR91-T3, BMR91-T4, and BMR91-T5

Geoscience Australia conducted a deep seismic reflection test survey in the onshore portion of the Otway Basin in the southeastern part of South Australia and southwestern part of Victoria, from late October to early November 1991. The seismic test survey was undertaken to test the feasibility of recording deep seismic reflection data prior to commencing a major deep seismic reflection survey in the Otway Basin. A planned major deep seismic reflection survey by AGSO formed part of a National Geoscience Mapping Accord (NGMA) project to study the early development of the Otway Basin. The seismic reflection test survey operated for a period of three weeks, including mobilisation and demobilisation to the survey area, with five test sites occupied during the test survey. The seismic test sites were positioned to examine the feasibility of recording deep seismic reflections in areas with different outcropping rock types along the proposed main seismic lines. eMF seismic profiles were recorded along all five test lines, with uphole shoots, shot depth and charge size comparison tests performed at several of the sites. Good quality deep seismic reflection events were recorded at several of the seismic test sites. The seismic test survey was important in highlighting areas with difficult shothole drilling conditions, especially the palaeo-sand dunes along the SA-Victoria border, and the Tertiary shelly sands with shallow water table near Lake Bonney. A major seismic survey would require all shothole drilling rigs to be equipped with portable mudpits to enable shotholes to be drilled in the palaeo-sand dunes and shelly sands.

Murray Basin Hydrogeological Project, progress report 4, for half year ending 30 September, 1980

The Project Steering Committee, at its meeting on 19 June agreed that accounts of progress should be issued every six months rather than quarterly; consequently this fourth report covers the period from April to September 1980. As a result of discussions at the meeting the Committee decided to investigate the possibility of attempting a preliminary groundwater model of the whole basin at an early stage instead of leaving any modelling till the final phase of the Project, as originally planned. A sub-committee (convenor, Franz Kalf WRC NSW) was set up to consider how this objective might be achieved; its recommendations will appear in the fifth progress report.

MRTAS Western Tasmania tmi vd1 grid geodetic

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.
This MRTAS Western Tasmania tmi vd1 grid geodetic is a first vertical derivative of the Total Magnetic Intensity grid for the Western Tasmania, Tas, 2001 (WTRMP Area C).
This grid has a cell size of 0.00042 degrees (approximately 41m). The grid has units of nanoTesla per km (or nT/km). The data used to produce the TMI grid was acquired in 2001 by the TAS Government, and consisted of 44149 line-kilometres of data at 200m line spacing and 80m terrain clearance. A Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) process was applied to the original grid to calculate the first vertical derivative grid.

A model for sulphide band formation under epigenetic conditions - a study based on simulated sedimentary systems

The formation of sulfide bands in sediments has been investigated in the past, but in all the cases described they have formed by the diffusion of solutes from stationary fluids in the pores of the sediments. Experimental work with liquids flowing through sediments has shown that such bands may be formed even in a dynamic environment. A model based on experimental work with simulated sedimentary systems explaining the mechanism responsible for the formation of such bands under epigenetic conditions is presented in this paper.

Australian petroleum accumulations report. Bass Basin, Tasmania, and Victoria

Six petroleum accumulations have been discovered since 1965 in the Bass Basin of southeastern Australia.
The petroleum in the Bass Basin mainly occupies the structural fold-related traps within the Lower Cretaceous to Upper Eocene fluvio-deltaic clastic rocks of the Eastern View Coal Measures.  It is believed to be of humic, algal, and herbaceous origin, and occurs as crude oil (21-50ÂºAPI); condensate (49-51ÂºAPI); and gases (mainly wet).
The basin's estimated petroleum recoverable reserves as at 31 December 1985 comprise 2.25 x 106m3 of oil, 7.38 x 106m3 of condensate; 4.70 x 106m3 of liquid petroleum gas (LPG); and 13.20 x109m3 of sales gas.
