Mapping the disruption of source magnetization depth estimates by...
Near-surface magnetizations are ubiquitous across many areas of Australia and complicate reliable estimation of depth to deeper magnetizations. We have selected four test areas... -
Monitoring coastal change dynamics using multi-decadal moderate resolution...
Coastal environments are intrinsically dynamic and respond to a wide array of natural and anthropogenic drivers across a broad range of time steps. In addition, coastal... -
