Structural and Stratigraphic Architecture of Australia's Frontier Onshore Sedimentary Basins: The West Officer and Southern Carnarvon Basins, Western Australia

Over the last five years, the Onshore Energy Security Program, funded by the Australian Government and conducted by Geoscience Australia, has acquired deep seismic reflection data, in conjunction with state and Territory geological surveys, across several frontier sedimentary basins to stimulate petroleum exploration in onshore Australia. Here, we present data from two seismic lines collected in Western Australia in 2011. The Yilgarn-Officer-Musgrave (YOM) seismic line, 487 km long, crossed the western Officer Basin in Western Australia, and the Southern Carnarvon Seismic line, 259 km long, crossed the Byro Sub-basin of Southern Carnarvon Basin.
The YOM survey aims to image the Neoproterozoic to Devonian western Officer Basin, one of Australia's underexplored sedimentary basins with hydrocarbon potential. The survey data will also build on the geoscientific knowledge of the architecture of Australia's crust and the relationship between the eastern Yilgarn Craton and the Musgrave Province.
The Southern Carnarvon survey aims to image the in the onshore section of the Ordovician to Permian Carnarvon Basin, which offshore is one of Australia's premier petroleum producing provinces. The Byro Sub-basin is an underexplored depocentre with the potential for both hydrocarbon and geothermal energy. Where the seismic crosses the Byro Sub-basin it images a pair of half graben on west dipping faults. Structural and sequence stratigraphic interpretations of the two seismic lines will be presented here.

Regional variation of gravity, and isostatic equilibrium if the Australian crust

In eastern Australia free-air anomalies and altitudes averaged over 1Â° x 1Â° areas show a positive correlation of +0.059 Â± .004 mGal. m^-1. lsostatic compensation of topography and crustal masses is thought to be mainly at the base of the crust, but partly deeper in the mantle, and to be almost complete for 1Â° x 1Â° areas. In central and western Australia free-air anomalies and altitudes have a zero or slightly negative correlation with a larger scatter; isostatic compensation is thought to be complete only for 3Â° x 3Â° areas and to be predominantly at the base of the crust. The deeper compensation in eastern Australia is thought to be related in some way to the youth of the crust and the presence of a low velocity zone at about 130 km. Elsewhere in the world Phanerozoic areas have a positive free-air anomaly altitude correlation, and Precambrian areas a negative correlation; so the different modes of isostatic compensation found in Australia may apply to crust of similar age elsewhere in the world. In Australia the residual 1Â° x 1Â° area anomalies found by removing altitude, long wavelength and sedimentary effects generally have an amplitude of 30 mGal and a wavelength of 6Â°; they are thought to be due to isostatically compensated variations in crustal density. Using these anomalies, variations in crustal thickness are predicted.

Esperance Gravity Complete Spherical Cap Bouguer Grid Geodetic

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. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.
This Esperance Gravity Complete Spherical Cap Bouguer Grid Geodetic is a complete spherical cap Bouguer anomaly grid for the Esperance Gravity Survey 2013 (P201361). This gravity survey was acquired under the project No. 201361 for the geological survey of WA. The grid has a cell size of 0.00489 degrees (approximately 498m). The data are given in units of um/s^2, also known as 'gravity units', or gu. A total of 7892 gravity stations were acquired to produce this grid.

Modelling damage to residential buildings from wind-borne debris - Part 2 - implementation

Of the damage sustained by residential buildings during a severe wind event, a significant portion can be caused by impacts from wind‐borne debris. Furthermore, where such impacts form dominant openings in windward walls, large internal pressures can be generated, consequently leading to substantially increased loads on the building’s structure and hence increased damage to the building’s envelope. Geoscience Australia, together with its collaborators the Cyclone Testing Station at James Cook University and JDH Consulting, have commenced development of a software tool to quantitatively model vulnerability of residential buildings to severe wind. This
paper describes the implementation of the methodology presented in Part 1 [1] into the software tool to model wind‐borne debris induced damage.

Developing (hydro)geological conceptual models to support improved groundwater management. The Upper Darling Floodplain Project, New South Wales

The groundwater and surface water systems associated with the Upper Darling River Floodplain (UDF) in arid northwest New South Wales form part of the Murray-Darling Basin drainage system, which hosts 40% of Australia’s agricultural production. Increasing water use demands and a changing regional climate are affecting hydrological systems, and consequently impacting the quality and quantity of water availability to communities, industries and the environment.
As part of the Australian Government’s Exploring for the Future program, the UDF project is working in collaboration with State partners to collect and integrate new data and information with existing hydrogeological knowledge. The goal is to provide analyses and products that assist water managers to increase water security in the region, with a focus on groundwater resources. 
As part of this project we are assessing the occurrence of, and geological controls on, potable water resources within the Darling Alluvium (DA), which comprises unconsolidated sediments (<140 m thick) associated with the modern and paleo-Darling River. The DA’s relationship to the underlying Eromanga, Surat (Great Artesian Basin) and Murray basins is also important, particularly in the context of potential groundwater sources or sinks, and connection between low and high quality groundwater resources. At least one major fault system is known to influence groundwater flow paths and control groundwater-surface water interaction.
Data collection across the project area has commenced, with an airborne electromagnetic (AEM) survey already complete, and new geophysical, hydrochemical and hydrodynamic data being acquired. Preliminary interpretation of the new AEM data in conjunction with existing geological and hydrogeological information has already revealed the major paths and geometries of the paleo-Darling River, given important insights into fault controls on groundwater flow paths, and shown variation in the thickness, distribution and character of the DA, which has direct implications for groundwater–surface water connectivity.

Orbost, Vic, 1994 VIMP Survey (GSV2665) (P654), 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 Orbost, Vic, 1994 VIMP Survey (GSV2665) survey were acquired in 1994 by the VIC Government, and consisted of 20638 line-kilometres of data at 200m line spacing and 90m 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.
