Atlas of isoseismal maps of Australian earthquakes, part 3

This is the third volume of the isoseismal atlas compiled by Australian Geological Survey Organisation (AGSO) and contains an additional 119 Australian isoseismal maps of earthquakes that occurred between 1841and 1990.
The atlas contains at least one map in every decade since the 1840s. A loose leaf binder format was adopted so additional maps could be inserted at a later time. Isoseismal maps in volume 3 and not in the first two volumes include those for:
- the largest recorded earthquake in continental Australia - offshore WA on 19 November 1906 magnitude Ms 7.2
- the largest known earthquake in Eastern Australia - north east of Tasmania on 12 May 1885 magnitude MI 6.8
- the largest earthquake on Eyre Peninsula South Australia - 16 April 1887 magnitude ML(I) 5.7.
- several small to moderate but important earthquakes in or near the major urban areas of Melbourne, Adelaide and Newcastle and
- three Indonesian earthquakes felt in Northern Australia.
Major earthquakes in the Indonesian Banda Arc shake tall buildings in Adelaide and Perth, some of which have generated tsunamis that sweep Australia's northwest coast which is why they are included in the atlas.

GSNSW Exploration NSW Area A3 Bancannia Trough magnetic first vd 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 A3 Bancannia Trough magnetic first vd grid geodetic is a first vertical derivative of the Total Magnetic Intensity grid for the NSW DMR, Discovery 2000, 1994-95, AREA A3, Bancannia Trough.
This grid has a cell size of 0.00063 degrees (approximately 65m). The grid has units of nanoTesla per km (or nT/km). The data used to produce the TMI grid was acquired in 1995 by the NSW Government, and consisted of 21000 line-kilometres of data at 400m 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.

Co-seismic surface deformation relating to the March 23, 2012 Mw5.4 Ernabella (Pukatja) Earthquake, intraplate central Australia

On 23 March 2012, at 09:25 GMT, a MW 5.4 earthquake occurred in the eastern Musgrave Ranges region of north-central South Australia, near the community of Ernabella (Pukatja).  This was the largest earthquake to be recorded on mainland Australia for the past 15 years and resulted in the formation of a 1.6 km-long surface deformation zone comprising reverse fault scarps with a maximum vertical displacement of over 50 cm, and extensive ground cracking.  Numerous small communities in this remote part of central Australia reported the tremor, but there were no reports of injury or significant damage. The maximum ground shaking is estimated to have been in the order of MMI VI. The earthquake occurred in Stable Continental Region (SCR) crust, over 1900 km from the nearest plate boundary.  Fewer than fifteen historic earthquakes worldwide are documented to have produced coseismic surface deformation (i.e. faulting or folding) in the SCR setting.  The record of surface deformation relating to the Ernabella earthquake therefore provides an important constraint on models relating surface rupture length to earthquake magnitude. Such models may be employed to better interpret Australia's rich prehistoric record of seismicity, thereby improving estimates of seismic hazard.

First continental layered geological map of Australia

Output Type: Exploring for the Future Extended abstract

Short Abstract: The increasing demand for mineral, energy and groundwater resources to support sustainable development and achieve net zero carbon targets in the face of climate change necessitates a deeper understanding of Earth’s resources and geological processes. Traditional 2D geological maps, while valuable for synthesizing and communicating geoscientific information, are limited in depicting the full extent and depth of geological units, which is crucial for effective resource exploration and management. Here, we present the Layered Geological Map of Australia (LGMA) dataset, the world’s first layered geological model at the continental scale. It integrates diverse geological, geochemical and geophysical datasets to create a comprehensive, machine-readable 3D geological framework spanning Australia's surface and subsurface. The dataset contains approximately 185,000 polygons representing the extent of around 7,600 geological units grouped into five chronostratigraphic layers corresponding to major Era boundaries (Cenozoic, Mesozoic, Paleozoic, Neoproterozoic and pre-Neoproterozoic). Standardised and consistent chrono-lithostratigraphy for each geological unit were captured through the Australian Stratigraphic Units Database (ASUD) and linked to the layered geology map to provide an attribute-rich dataset that can be queried and visualised in Geographic Information System (GIS) software or 3D modelling packages. The LGMA represents a significant advancement in Australian geoscience towards a 3D geological model of Australia, offering a foundational resource for academia, government, and industry alike.&nbsp;
