SWAIS2C is a project under the International Continental Scientific Drilling Program (ICDP) that aims to acquire samples and data under the Ross Ice Shelf that are crucial for forecasting rising sea levels and monitoring associated impacts on coastal regions worldwide.
Read MoreNovel Hyperspectral Mineral Mapping aims to upgrade the pre-existing SPEC-E Lab at ANU to facilitate the deployment of novel techniques which aim to produce unique mineral collections and subsequent spectral databases for researchers and industry.
Read MoreThe Geophysical Research Infrastructure for Antarctica (GRIT) project aims to advance Antarctic research by deploying specialised geophysical instrumentation tailored to the continent's extreme conditions.
Read MoreLand-2-Sea Geoscience (L2SG) project focuses on deploying innovative drilling technology to contribute to the global scientific understanding of Antarctic ice dynamics.
Read MoreThe ‘Magnetometers-in-Schools’ project aims to develop a pilot outreach program for schools by deploying magnetometers and lesson plans to boost school curriculum in areas of Earth Science.
Read MoreCommon Framework for Inference (CoFI) aims to address inference problems within Earth Sciences, irrespective of size and scope, by capturing inherent commonalities present in all types of inverse problems, independent of the specific methods employed to solve them.
Read MoreGroundwater sampling will receive a boost through the combined effort of the CSIRO and University of Adelaide’s noble gas facilities to contribute to the development of the AusGeochem database and subsequent research in water security and industry sectors.
Read MoreDevelopment of new dating methods will help push the boundaries of geochronology. Through the installation of a new laser system at Adelaide Microscopy, earth scientists can enhance their analyses of geological materials at an unprecedented rate, providing new temporal frameworks to resource exploration.
Read MoreThe GPlates App is a powerful tool that enables users to reconstruct and visualise spatial data through geological time. Built on top of the acclaimed plate reconstruction software, the App benefits from the feature-rich web APIs and the flexible software architecture of its underlying technology.
Read MoreThe Critical Zone is the surface environment where complex interactions between soil, water, air, and organisms help regulate natural ecosystems and life-sustaining resources.
Read MorePlate tectonics, volcanism, epeirogenic motions, hotspots, basin formation, episodes of mountain building, igneous intrusions, metamorphism — all are consequences of the flow of heat within the Earth at the mantle and lithosphere scale.
