Receiver Function volumetric model of north-eastern Northern Territory and north-western Queensland

Created 16/10/2025

Updated 16/10/2025

This model is a volumetric representation of receiver function analysis based on common conversion point (CCP) profiles created every 50 km in North-South and East-West directions below the AusArray network (Gorbatov et al., 2020), combining them into one 3D image. The model bounds are: (-21.74, 132.52) - (-17.30, 141.46), geographic projection EPSG:28353. The model file is distributed in ASCII GoCad stratigraphic grid format (SGrid) where units are longitude (meters), latitude (meters), depth (meters) and value of receiver function amplitude.

Geoscience Australia’s Exploring for the Future program provides precompetitive information to inform decision-making by government, community and industry on the sustainable development of Australia's mineral, energy and groundwater resources. By gathering, analysing and interpreting new and existing precompetitive geoscience data and knowledge, we are building a national picture of Australia’s geology and resource potential. This leads to a strong economy, resilient society and sustainable environment for the benefit of all Australians. This includes supporting Australia’s transition to a low emissions economy, strong resources and agriculture sectors, and economic opportunities and social benefits for Australia’s regional and remote communities. The Exploring for the Future program, which commenced in 2016, is an eight year, $225m investment by the Australian Government.
