Gairdner - dose rate grid (AWAGS)

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. The total dose rate is due to natural sources of radiation and is computed by adding estimates of cosmic dose at ground level to the terrestrial dose. The terrestrial dose rate grid is derived as a linear combination of the filtered K, U and Th grids. A low pass filter is applied to this grid to generate the filtered total dose rate grid.
This Gairdner - dose rate grid (AWAGS) has a cell size of 0.0004 degrees (approximately 41m) and shows the total dose rate of the Gairdner Airborne Magnetic Radiometric and DEM survey, SA, 2018 survey. The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2018 by the SA Government, and consisted of 104788 line-kilometres of data at 200m line spacing and 60m terrain clearance.

Darwin Harbour Habitat Mapping Program: Backscatter homogeneity

This resource contains a GLCM (Grey-Level Co-occurrence Matices) homogeneity grid of the backscatter data for the greater Darwin Harbour region as part of a baseline seabed mapping program of Darwin Harbour and Bynoe Harbour. This project was funded through offset funds provided by an INPEX-led Ichthys LNG Project to the Northern Territory Government’s Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NTG-DENR) with co-investment from Geoscience Australia (GA) and the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS). The intent of this program is to improve knowledge of the marine environments in the Darwin and Bynoe Harbour regions by collating and collecting baseline data that enable the creation of thematic habitat maps and information to underpin marine resource management decisions. The GLCM (Grey-Level Co-occurrence Matices) homogeneity grid of the backscatter data was derived from a compilation of multiple surveys undertaken by GA, AIMS and NTG-DENR between 2011 and 2017, including GA0333 (Siwabessy et al., 2015), GA0341 (Siwabessy et al., 2015), GA0351/SOL6187 (Siwabessy et al., 2016), GA4452/SOL6432 (Siwabessy et al., 2017), GA0356 (Radke et al., 2017), and GA0358 and GA0359 (Radke et al., 2018), adding to those from a previous survey GA0333 collected by GA, AIMS and NTG-DENR. The homogeneity is large when the image is locally homogeneous or  texturally uniform.

Seabed exposure and ecological disturbance on Australia's continental shelf: Potential surrogates for marine biodiversity

Disturbances characterise many natural environments - on land, a forest fire that removes a patch of old-growth trees is an example.  The trees that first colonise the vacant patch may be a different species to the surrounding old-growth forest and hence, taken together, the disturbed and undisturbed forest has a higher biodiversity than the original undisturbed forest.  This simple example demonstrates the intermediate disturbance hypothesis (IDH) that has applications in many natural environments.  The application of IDH is significant for managers tasked with managing and conserving the biodiversity that exists in a given area.
In this report we have used models of seabed sediment mobilisation to examine IDH for Australia's continental shelf environment.  Although other disturbance processes may occur (eg. biological, temperature, salinity, anthropogenic, etc.) our study addresses only the physical disturbance of the seabed by waves and currents.  Our study has shown that it is feasible to model the frequency and magnitude of seabed disturbance in relation to the dominant energy source (wave-dominated shelf, tide-dominated shelf or tropical cyclone dominated shelf).  We focussed our attention on high-energy, patch-clearing events defined as exceeding the Shields parameter value of 0.25.  Based on what is known about rates of ecological succession for different substrate types (gravel, sand, mud) we derive maps predicting the spatial distribution of a dimensionless ecological disturbance index (ED).
Only a small portion of the shelf (perhaps ~10%) is characterised by a disturbance regime as defined here.  Within these areas, the recurrence interval of disturbance events is comparable to the rate of ecological succession and meets our defined criteria for a disturbance regime. To our knowledge, this is the first time such an analysis has been attempted for any continental shelf on the earth.

GSNSW Exploration NSW Area J Cobar Nymagee Part1 magnetic 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 GSNSW Exploration NSW Area J Cobar Nymagee Part1 magnetic grid geodetic has a cell size of 0.00049 degrees (approximately 50m). The units are in nanoTesla (or nT). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 1998 by the NSW Government, and consisted of 46744 line-kilometres of data at 250m line spacing and 60m terrain clearance.

Ground-motion attenuation modelling in Australia; Implications for Earthquake Hazard and Risk

Ground-motion attenuation models have been derived for the Australian crust. These models employ both empirical and stochastic methods and are the first spectral groundmotion models to be based entirely on Australian ground-motion data. Two key datasets have been employed to derive empirical ground-motion attenuation models for Australia; one from data recorded in the Palaeozoic crust of southeastern Australia (SEA) and the other from the Archean shield region of southwestern Western Australia (WA). Empirical ground-motion models are derived for each of these datasets. 
In general, low-frequency (e.g. 1 Hz) ground-motion energy appears to attenuate less in WA than in SEA. These empirical models suggest that SEA has similar near-source attenuation with eastern North America.
