Download or read book Exploring the Earth under the Sea written by Neville Exon and published by ANU Press. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring the Earth under the Sea brings to life the world’s largest and longest-lived geological research program, which has been drilling over many decades at many locations deep below the ocean floor to recover continuous cores of sediment and rock. Study of these materials has helped us understand how the Earth works now, how it has worked in the past and how it may work in the future. The cores are a wonderful source of information on the dynamic processes that form and reform the Earth, both beneath the ocean and on land. The results have revealed climate and oceanographic change on different time frames, the history of life in the sea and on land including global mass extinctions, the extraordinary story of the great masses of ‘extremophile’ microbes that live beneath the sea bed, the nature of the giant earthquakes and tsunami generated at the trenches where tectonic plates collide, and the nature of submarine volcanoes and metalliferous deposits. This book outlines the technology and enduring international partnerships that underlie the scientific ocean drilling accomplished by the first phase of IODP, currently involving 23 countries. It highlights the important role of Australian and New Zealand scientists in the program, and the great scientific benefits we have derived from our partnership since joining IODP in 2008. As well as the scientific summaries, there are personal accounts by shipboard scientists of how they found life at sea on two-month expeditions, working 12-hour shifts on a noisy drill ship.

Download or read book Geoscience Australia s Digital Strategy 2019 22 written by Geoscience Australia and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Fuelled by a virtual explosion in digital capabilities the world is changing very fast and the field of Geoscience is no exception. Geoscience Australia (GA) has undergone a rapid digital transformation in the past 5 years. This has in part been driven by increasing organisational ICT costs, and partly by whole of government and more broadly global changes to the digital environment such as; growth in data, cheaper, more available cloud and infrastructure, new advances in AI and ML, new models for continuous development (DevOps) and public expectations that data will be available and accessible. The overarching principle of Geoscience Australia's Digital Strategy 2019-22 acknowledges that GA's Enterprise ICT is inherently integrated with scientific data and ICT requirements, and more broadly these are the foundation of the digital science we are respected for at GA. As such, this strategy brings all three of these components together in a whole of agency digital strategy. The Digital Strategy focuses on strong foundations, systematic experimentation, data-driven science and digital culture and capability. Eighteen different strategies lie under these themes to help guide GA's focus for the next 3 years. There are also a number of high level KPI's designed to help us measure our success" -- Online abstract.

Download or read book Advances in Geoscience and Remote Sensing written by Gary Jedlovec and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2009-10-01 with total page 756 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Remote sensing is the acquisition of information of an object or phenomenon, by the use of either recording or real-time sensing device(s), that is not in physical or intimate contact with the object (such as by way of aircraft, spacecraft, satellite, buoy, or ship). In practice, remote sensing is the stand-off collection through the use of a variety of devices for gathering information on a given object or area. Human existence is dependent on our ability to understand, utilize, manage and maintain the environment we live in - Geoscience is the science that seeks to achieve these goals. This book is a collection of contributions from world-class scientists, engineers and educators engaged in the fields of geoscience and remote sensing.
