A Marine Survey to Investigate Seal Integrity Between Potential CO2 Storage Reservoirs and Seafloor in the Caswell Sub-basin, Browse Basin, Western Australia
"Geoscience Australia (GA) conducted a marine survey (GA0345/GA0346/TAN1411) of the north-eastern Browse Basin (Caswell Sub-basin) between 9 October and 9 November 2014 to acquire seabed and shallow geological information to support an assessment of the CO2 storage potential of the basin. The survey, undertaken as part of the Department of Industry and Science's National CO2 Infrastructure Plan (NCIP), aimed to identify and characterise indicators of natural hydrocarbon or fluid seepage that may indicate compromised seal integrity in the region. The survey was conducted in three legs aboard the New Zealand research vessel RV Tangaroa, and included scientists and technical staff from GA, the NZ National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research Ltd. (NIWA) and Fugro Survey Pty Ltd." -- online abstract.
3D Geophysical Inversion Modelling of the Wallaby Plateau
"The Wallaby Plateau is a bathymetric high off the west coast of Western Australia. It is considered a frontier region as little is known about the subsurface geology. To further investigate the rock properties in this region, 3D inversion models of density and magnetic susceptibility were generated, from gravity and magnetic data respectively, using a model-based trend removal method. Inversions were performed using UBC-GIF software on the National Computational Infrastructure's supercomputer facility to generate high-resolution (~7.56 million cells), regional-scale (550 x 550 x 25 km volume) models. Two cores of relatively low density, similar to continental crust, are identified across the Wallaby Plateau in the 3D density model. Divergent dipping reflector sequences, identified in seismic interpretation, tend to dip away from the zones of interpreted continental crust and also correlate well with bodies of high magnetic susceptibility identified in the 3D magnetic susceptibility model. Together, this suggests that the divergent dipping reflector sequences are similar to seaward-dipping reflector sequences of volcanic rift margins." -- Online abstract.

The Unofficial Countryside
During the early 1970s Richard Mabey explored crumbling city docks and overgrown bomb-sites, navigated inner city canals and car parks, and discovered there was scarcely a nook in our urban landscape incapable of supporting life. The Unofficial Countryside is a timely reminder of how nature flourishes against the odds, surviving in the most obscure and surprising places. First published 1973 by William Collins Sons & Co.
The Last London
A New Statesman Book of the Year London. A city apart. Inimitable. Or so it once seemed. Spiralling from the outer limits of the Overground to the pinnacle of the Shard, Iain Sinclair encounters a metropolis stretched beyond recognition. The vestiges of secret tunnels, the ghosts of saints and lost poets lie buried by developments, the cycling revolution and Brexit. An electrifying final odyssey, The Last London is an unforgettable vision of the Big Smoke before it disappears into the air of memory.
Water, Water
One morning Rafe wakes up to discover his bedroom is floating in a vast sea of water. An unforgettable illustrated novel for ages 10 and up with elements of James and the Giant Peach meets Waterworld and The Road. One morning Rafe wakes up to discover his bedroom is floating in a vast sea of water. Alone with only his dog for company, Rafe adapts to this strange new world by fishing cans of food out of the water and keeping watch. Boxes float by, as does a woman, playing her cello. Then, one day, Rafe fishes out a young girl, who joins him in his room — they don't speak the same language, but they will face this uncertain future together.
