Southern Bass Strait, Tas, 2001 (WTRMP Area F) (P820), 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 Southern Bass Strait, Tas, 2001 (WTRMP Area F) survey were acquired in 2000 by the TAS Government, and consisted of 14921 line-kilometres of data at 200m line spacing and 120m 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.

Elevation and gravity profiles across Australia: some implications for tectonism

Twenty sets of elevation and gravity profiles across the Australian continent and its margins were prepared by computer from a data bank of 260 000 observations. Their concise and accurate presentation enables crustal blocks to be identified from their elevation and surface character. The profiles indicate that the continent consists of rigid crustal blocks containing the cratonised remnants of ancient mobile belts. Some blocks have been eroded to great depth, others are blanketed by sediments and many are undergoing passive isostatic adjustment. Differential vertical movements between adjacent small blocks suggest that some are not in isostatic equilibrium, and differences in regional free-air anomaly level over distances of up to 6 degrees of arc confirm that complete isostasy does not prevail. Around the outer zone of the continent, the dominant direction of movement is downwards, presumably in response to erosion of the base of the crust. However, horizontal compression may be preventing some of the blocks from subsiding, resulting in topographic features, including the Australian Alps.

GSV West Gippsland VIMP Vic pot tho ura totg 4band radiometric grid geodetic

This GSV West Gippsland VIMP Vic pot tho ura totg 4band radiometric grid geodetic is an airborne-derived radiometric Potassium, Thorium and Uranium data over a sun shaded total count radiometric data for the West Gippsland, Vic, 2001 VIMP Survey (GSV3172). 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 uranium (K), uranium (U) and uranium (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 GSV West Gippsland VIMP Vic pot tho ura totg 4band radiometric grid geodetic has a cell size of 0.0005 degrees (approximately 49m). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2001 by the VIC Government, and consisted of 69297 line-kilometres of data at a line spacing between 250m and 400m, and 80m terrain clearance.  The grid was produced by applying the colours red to the Potassium ground concentration, green to the Thorium concentration and blue to the Uranium concentration. The colours were clipped to a 99% linear scale. These colours were transparent over a shaded Total Count. This clipping will necessarily introduce some artefacts into the ratio grids in areas of very low radioelement concentrations. The 3-band image was superposed on the sun shaded TC grid of the same survey to produce the final image.

Geology of the Croydon

These data are a digital representation of information depicted on the printed map of the Croydon 1:250 000 Geological Series produced by AGSO and the Geological Survey of Queensland (GSQ) in 1977 (1st edition).
Data present include geological polygons (litho-stratigraphic units), linear structural features (faults, dykes, folds, trends, lineaments etc), and point features (mines, structural points etc). Polygons have a range of attributes extracted from each individual map including unit name, age and lithological description, while lines and points are feature coded according to the AGSO publication 'Symbols Used On Geological Maps' (BMR 1989). A standard look-up table of AGSO geological codes and associated descriptions is available (see ADDITIONAL METADATA).
The data has gradually evolved from elementary CAD quality data into its present topologically structured GIS format, and hence has many imperfections and inconsistencies. Data has undergone rigorous validation and testing that includes over 80 different tests. See ADDITIONAL METADATA for more information on the data standards used.

Advancing Space Weather Hazard Research in Australia: A Journey of Discovery from AWAGS to AusLAMP

A geomagnetic storm, also known as a geomagnetic disturbance (GMD), is a major disturbance of the Earth’s magnetic field caused by solar activity. A geomagnetic storm induces electric currents in the Earth that feed into power lines through substation neutral earthing, causing instabilities and even blackouts in electricity transmission systems. The strength of geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) in the ground is directly related to the electrical conductivity of the surrounding geology. GICs experienced within power transmission lines are also influenced by the orientations and configuration of the power lines with respect to the electric fields. We installed a geoelectric field monitoring system at the Canberra geomagnetic observatory (CNB) to directly measure geomagnetically induced electric fields. This data enhances the capability in modelling and forecasting geoelectric hazards and can be used to validate the modelling approach through convolving magnetotelluric (MT) tensors with geomagnetic fields. In this presentation, we modelled the induced electric fields for the 1989 Québec geomagnetic storm, using MT data collected at survey sites from the Australian Lithospheric Architecture Magnetotelluric Project (AusLAMP). These results give us insight into the potential magnitude of space weather hazards to Australia's modern-day power grids. We extended this approach to a ‘Carrington-class’ geomagnetic storm to evaluate geoelectric fields in the Australian region, allowing GICs flow in the power lines to be estimated. As an example, geomagnetically induced voltages in transmission lines from Queensland for a ‘Carrington-class’ geomagnetic storm are presented.

Carnarvon Southern Basin Biozonation and Stratigraphy Chart No. 4

Biostratigraphy is the branch of stratigraphy that uses fossils to establish relative ages of rock and correlate successions of sedimentary rocks within and between depositional basins. A biozone is an interval of geologic strata characterised by certain fossil taxa. Such intervals are often defined by the first appearances (range bases), apparent extinctions (range tops/last appearances), or abundances of fossil index species. These key index species should be relatively abundant, short-lived taxa that are easy to recognise and as geographically widespread as possible. Widely used fossil groups include brachiopods, conodonts, dinoflagellate cysts, foraminifera, graptolites, nannofossil, spores and pollen and trilobites. Zonal schemes based on several different fossil groups can be used in parallel, and the zones can be calibrated to the absolute geological timescale using tie points to rocks which have been radio-isotopically dated.
