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
Geophysics Seismological Models, mineral physics and spin transitions in the lower mantle The dominant variation of the physical properties of the Earth is with depth, though complex 3-D structures are present in the top 1000 km and near the core-mantle boundary.
Geodynamics The Earth's troubled childhood Continents host the oldest building blocks of the Earth's surface and keep a record of the processes that shaped it. A careful reading and high-performance computational modelling of the early, hotter Earth reveal a coming of age story.
Geodynamics Do Australian earthquakes matter? People naturally focus on big news and Geo-scientists also pay more attentions to big earthquakes happening in plate boundaries rather than the 'boring' small earthquakes in stable continents. Does this mean the intraplate earthquakes are negligible in scientific research?
