Rare-earth element geochemistry of Archaean orthogneisses and evolution of the East Antarctic shield

Two distinct suites of Archaean (about 3100 Ma) granulite-facies orthogneisses, predominantly of intrusive origin, have been recognised in the Napier Complex of Enderby Land, Antarctica. One, mainly of tonalitic to granodioritic composition, is strongly depleted in Y and HREE, and is characterised by positive Eu anomalies. It probably represents new continental crust derived by hydrous partial melting of a hornblende and/or garnet-bearing mafic source. A generally younger undepleted suite, predominantly of trondhjemitic to granitic composition, has higher TiO2, P2O5, Y, Zr, Nb, REE, and Ga/AI, lower CaO, Sr, Ti / Y, Ce/Y. and Mg/ (Mg + total Fe), and commonly negative Eu anomalies. It apparently originated by relatively dry, lower-pressure melting of mainly felsic crustal rocks. Compositional differences between depleted tonalites and granodiorites are almost entirely confined to LIL elements (K, Rb, Ba, Pb, Th, and U), and can be explained by interaction of either the source material or the magma (during generation or, less likely, emplacement) with an LIL-element-enriched fluid phase. Such an enrichment process is difficult to model in detail because of LIL-element depletion during granulite-facies metamorphism.  Depleted granitoids may be representative of a deeper crustal level than undepleted granitoids, which, together with a variety of metasediments, predominate in adjacent lower-grade (amphibolite to low granulite facies) late Archaean and Proterozoic terrains. The Archaean granitoids are dominated by two I-t ype (igneous-derived) suites, whereas those of post-Archaean age are largely u depleted I-type or S-type (sediment-derived).

Impact-based forecasting for the coastal zone

Strong surface wind gusts and heavy rain are meteorological hazards that are predominantly produced by storms such as east coast lows, tropical cyclones or thunderstorms. Interest in these hazards from a response agency point of view lies in their impact on the natural and built environment. At present, weather forecast models still predict mostly 'raw' meteorological output such as surface wind speeds at certain times, or rain accumulations over a specified period. This model output needs to be combined with exposure and
vulnerability information to translate the forecast hazard into predicted impact. The Bushfire and Natural Hazards CRC project Impact-based forecasting for the coastal zone: East-Coast Lows attempts to demonstrate a pilot capability to deliver impact forecasts for residential housing from an ensemble of weather prediction models runs. The project is a collaborative effort between the Australian Bureau of Meteorology and Geoscience Australia.
The project is initially focusing on the wind and rainfall impact from the 20-22 April 2015 east coast low event in NSW. The wind and rainfall hazard data are provided by a 24-member ensemble of the ACCESS model on a 1.3 km grid, with damage data acquired from NSW State Emergency Services (SES) and the Emergency Information Coordination Unit (EICU) for the 2015 event. We will show that the multi-hazard nature of an east coast low event makes attributing the observed building damage to a single hazard difficult. Wind damage to residential housing in this case is largely due to tree fall. This 'damage-by-intermediary' mechanism requires not just the knowledge of building properties in an exposed area, but also additional knowledge of the surrounding vegetation and its response to strong winds. We will discuss enhancements to the SES/EICU damage survey templates that would lead to improvements in the development of the hazard-damage relationships.

Heathcote, Vic, 1988 (GSV0360) (P1520), 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 Heathcote, Vic, 1988 (GSV0360) survey were acquired in 1988 by the VIC Government, and consisted of 3040 line-kilometres of data at 200m line spacing and 70m 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.

Gippsland Basin, Vic. airborne geophysical survey, 1998/1999 : operations report

The Australian Geological Survey Organisation (AGSO) flew an airborne geophysical survey
of 107,574 line kilometres covering parts of the onshore and offshore Gippsland Basin area in
Victoria. AGSO flew the survey over two periods; November to December 1998 and January
to April 1999.
The survey formed part of the National Geoscience Mapping Accord. Flight lines were flown
in an east-west direction with various line spacings and flying heights. The line spacing over
the onshore component was 200 metres with a flying height of 80 metres above ground level.
The offshore component was flown at 130 metres above sea level with line spacings of 400
and 800 metres. The latter spacing was used over the southeastern section of the survey area.
The total magnetic intensity, gamma-ray spectrometric and digital elevation model data
collected during the survey have been processed and are available for purchase. These data are
sold as digital point located data, grids and hardcopy maps, by the Australian Geological
Survey Organisation. A colour pixel image map depicting total magnetic intensity is also
available.
