Seismology Lighting Up Dark Fibre for Seismic Imaging Distributed acoustic sensing, or DAS, is a newly developed passive seismic technology that can transform telecommunication fibre-optic cable into linear arrays of ground motion sensors.
Seismology Australia surprised by moderate quake, but rumbling is not unusual On the morning of September 22, a magnitude-5.9 earthquake struck approximately 130 km northeast of Melbourne. Seismic waves were felt in Melbourne, Canberra, Sydney and Adelaide, and as far south as Tasmania.
Geophysics Australian Seismometers in Schools - Noise monitoring dashboard How we built a simple dashboard using Github actions with open source software and openly available (FAIR) data.
AuScope Distributed Acoustic Sensing in Australia's Downward Looking Telescope Seismic waves are being recorded in more detail than ever before. In this latest collaboration with the NASA Deep Space Network (DSN), researchers from The ANU and AuScope’s Earth Imaging and Sounding Program explain Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) infrastructure .
Opinion Australia’s geoscience paradox threatens its prosperity and sustainability Australia is losing capacity in geoscience education and research at a time it is most needed. Six of Australia's most influential Earth scientists offer their solutions.
Seismology Seismic Fly-past of the Century The Australian Air Force flew 100 years of aircraft through the centre of Canberra on March 31st and we recorded their seismic signal from the Parliament House Basement
Seismology The inherited structures within the Australian lithosphere define the tectonic evolution along the Banda arc Integration of passive seismic images, geochemistry, and reconstruction of uplift from river profiles provide new findings on arc-continent collisional processes
AuScope Testing AuScope’s next-gen seismometers at Mt Stromlo Recently, AuScope invested in a suite of Large-N or nodal seismometers, which are capable of recording seismic noise at local-, rather than regional-, scale, allowing seismologists to focus on imaging geological features like faults and aquifers.
