Internal tide energy pathways at the coast »
The turbulent dissipation and mixing associated with internal waves form a critical component of ocean physics, setting abyssal stratifications and determining the rate at which the deepest waters of the global overturning circulation rise.

Mainland Australia's next volcanic eruption: Insights into future activity from volcanology, petrology, Indigenous knowledge and public perceptions »
The last volcanic eruptions in mainland Australia took place around 4,500-5,000 years ago and were witnessed by Indigenous Australians.

Drought, Bushfires and Climate Change: The Hot Topic »
The recent drought (2017-2019) but especially the horrific fires throughout Eastern Australia now called the Black Summer (~ August 2019-February 2020) has generated what could be called a “tipping point” in the broader Australian community discussion about climate change.

Enabling Australian planetary missions: technical pathway and science applications »
With the inauguration of Australia’s space agency the volume around all things ‘space’ has been turned up to 11. But although agencies internationally recognise that science is a fundamental enabler in their space economies, and that missions are a key element of that, that realisation has not yet occurred in Australia

The Seismic Signature of Debris Flows: Flow Mechanics and Early Warning at Montecito, California »
Debris flows are concentrated slurries of water and sediment that shape the landscape and pose a major hazard to human life and infrastructure. Seismic ground motion-based observations promise to provide new, remote constraints on debris flow physics, but the lack of data and a theoretical basis for interpreting them h
