Australian birds. No date.
These data provide geologic information, including generalized lithology, geologic age, and paleo-latitude and -longitude of geologic units, for the United States, Canada, and Australia, in an H3 Discrete Global Grid System (DGGS) hexagonal format (Uber Technologies Inc., 2020) with an average hexagon area of 5.16 square kilometers. The data are presented as the shapefile version of ASCII data developed by Lawley and others (2021) for prospectivity modeling of basin-hosted Pb-Zn mineralization in the United States, Canada, and Australia (Lawley and others, 2022). References Lawley, C.J.M., McCafferty, A.E., Graham, G.E., Gadd, M.G., Huston, D.L., Kelley, K.D., Paradis, S., Peter, J.M., and Czarnota, K., 2021, Datasets...

These data present geologic map units for the United States (Horton and others, 2017; Wilson and others, 2015) and Australia (Raymond and others, 2012) reclassified to 31 generalized sub-type lithologic groups of igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks (Lawley and others, 2022). These generalized classifications are based on interpretation of map unit descriptions in the different map compilations. Given that map unit descriptions often contain multiple rock types, there were subjective calls necessary when assigning generalized lithologic classification. The data were developed as part of the tri-national Critical Minerals Mapping Initiative (Kelley, 2020) between the United States, Canada, and Australia, an...

The table illustrates global patterns of betacoronavirus (β-CoV) associations in bats. The table lists bat species in which betacoronaviruses (β-CoVs) were detected, organized by viral subgenera and clade [for Sarbecorviruses], bat family, bat suborder, and general global region where the species of bat occurs. Reference to the published literature sources of information for each row are listed in the last column.
The acquisition or designation of new protected areas is usually based on criteria for representation of different ecosystems or land-cover classes, and it is unclear how well-threatened species are conserved within protected-area networks. Here, we assessed how Australia's terrestrial protected-area system (89 million ha, 11.6% of the continent) overlaps with the geographic distributions of threatened species and compared this overlap against a model that randomly placed protected areas across the continent and a spatially efficient model that placed protected areas across the continent to maximize threatened species' representation within the protected-area estate. We defined the minimum area needed to conserve...

Mangroves are species of halophytic intertidal trees and shrubs derived from tropical genera and are likely delimited in latitudinal range by varying sensitivity to cold. There is now sufficient evidence that mangrove species have proliferated at or near their poleward limits on at least five continents over the past half century, at the expense of salt marsh. Avicennia is the most cold-tolerant genus worldwide, and is the subject of most of the observed changes. Avicennia germinans has extended in range along the USA Atlantic coast and expanded into salt marsh as a consequence of lower frost frequency and intensity in the southern USA. The genus has also expanded into salt marsh at its southern limit in Peru,...

Honey bees (Apis mellifera), a critical agricultural pollinator in many areas, have a high rate of infection with a large DNA virus, Apis mellifera filamentous virus (AmFV), yet little is known about its ecology or impact on honey bee colonies, other than its ubiquity and apparent low virulence. This study scanned over 5,000 public data sets to detect AmFV sequences in honey bees as well as a parasitic mite of honey bees, Varroa destructor, that is a potential vector of AmFV. The data release consists of these files: 1. AmFV.genome.assemblies.aligned.fas, which contains new AmFV draft genome sequences generated by this study aligned with existing reference genome accessions downloaded from the National Center for...
GeoTiff grids of models of prospectivity for clastic-dominated (CD) and Mississippi Valley-type (MVT) Pb-Zn mineralization for the US and Canada (combined) and Australia that used data provided in this report are provided here. The models are the result of a study by Lawley and others (2022) that used a data-driven machine learning approach called Gradient Boosting to predict the mineral prospectivity for clastic-dominated (CD) and carbonate-hosted (MVT) deposits across the United States, Canada, and Australia. The study was part of a tri-national collaboration between the U.S. Geological Survey, the Canadian Geological Survey, and Geoscience Australia called the Critical Minerals Mapping Initiative. The original...
This directory contains a national-scale magnetic anomaly grid for Australia (Geophysical Acquistion and Processing Section, 2020) and derivative grids calculated from the national scale compilation. The data are provided as GeoTIFF grids covering the country of Australia of reduced-to-pole (RTP) magnetic anomaly data, the 1st vertical derivative of the RTP, the horizontal gradient magnitude pseudo-gravity calculated from the RTP grid, the long-wavelength RTP magnetic anomaly, and the horizontal gradient magnitude of the long wavelength pseudo gravity calculated from the long wavelength RTP. The directory also includes shapefiles of locations that trace the maxima of the horizontal gradient magnitude of the pseudo-gravity...
This Country Documentation Report presents the development and updating of economic indices for Australia for the period from 1970 through 1983. It supplements the Phase I Country Documentation Report for Australia which presents the development of economic indices for the period 1970 through 1981. The work was done through the Bureau of Mines, Minerals Availability Program, under Contract number J0225001. This contract calls for the development of twelve index time series describing factor input costs in the mining sector of 95 countries. The twelve index time series describe the costs of: 1) mining wages, 2) , construction wages, 3) equipment and repair parts, 4) bits and related steel, 5) timber and lumber, 6)...

Long-term natural gas contracts and their specific features are at the forefront of legal and policy discussions around the world. Issues like oil price indexation and price reviews, flexibility and take-or-pay clauses or a move to shorter term trading are being debated. This is particularly true for Europe where major changes are taking place, but also in places like Australia and Asia. This study will focus on the antitrust treatment of long-term take-or-pay natural gas contracts and their specific provisions in the European Union and the United States. It will also examine the regulatory treatment of these contracts and the regulatory environment in which these contracts operate. Issues that are covered include...

This data release contains programmed pyrolysis, organic petrographic (reflectance), and semiquantitative X-ray diffraction mineralogy data for subsurface coal and shale samples from around the world. Samples were subjected to hydrous or anhydrous pyrolysis experiments at varying temperatures and the resulting residues were analyzed via programmed pyrolysis and reflectance to document changes in thermal maturity.
