This preliminary report will provide a geochemical and ionic characterisation of groundwater, to determine baseline conditions and, if possible, to distinguish between different aquifers in the Laura basin. The groundwater quality data will be compared against the water quality guidelines for aquatic ecosystem protection, drinking water use, primary industries, use by industry, recreation and aesthetics, and cultural and spiritual values to assess the environmental values of groundwater and the treatment that may be required prior to reuse or discharge.

Explaining spatial variation and habitat complexity of benthic habitats from underwater video through the use of maps. Different methodologies currently used to process and analyse percent cover of benthic organisms from underwater video will be addressed and reviewed.

Widespread flooding and associated damage in south-east Queensland during January and February, 2011 have demonstrated the importance of flood risk assessment. Flood risk assessment requires knowledge of the hazard, nature of properties exposed and their vulnerability to flood damage. Flood risk assessment can addresses different aspects of flood risk, i.e., hydrological, structural, economic and social aspects. This report presents the results of work undertaken by Geoscience Australia during 2011-2012 to further the understanding of the vulnerability of Australian buildings to inundation. The work consists of three parts: 1. Development of vulnerability curves for inundation, without velocity, of residential homes of the types encountered during surveys following the January, 2011 flooding in south-east Queensland. 2. Development of vulnerability curves for inundation, without velocity, of building types typical of the Alexandria Canal area of the inner south of Sydney. 3. Development of vulnerability curves for inundation with velocity (storm surge) of residential homes of the types encountered during surveys following TC Yasi, February, 2011.

Milestone report for National Water Commission

Applications dated 18 August 2010 for verification of a reference standard of measurement under Regulation 12 of the National Measurement Regulations 1999 was received from the Land and Property Management Authority, NSW for verification of GDA94 position on their CORSnet monuments. This report documents the processing and analysis of GPS data observed by the CORSnet-NSW GPS stations during a 7-day period from 08 August to 14 August 2010 (day of year 220 to 226) for 4 stations (CSNO, IHOE, PBOT, and TBOB) to satisfy the position verification requirements.

This report presents new SHRIMP U-Pb zircon results for twelve rocks from central, southeastern Queensland (Figure i and Table i). The work was carried out under the auspices of the National Geoscience Agreement (NGA) between Geoscience Australia and the Geological Survey of Queensland.
