Integrating geophysical observations with tectonic plate reconstructions
This talk presents an overview of research integrating geophysical and geochemical observations with tectonic plate reconstructions to produce data-driven studies of Earth …
All models are wrong: Testing your assumptions (keynote)
Approaching earth science problems in a “data-driven” philosophy can help glean new insights into our problem and quantify uncertainty.
Turning up the heat on Earth temperature modelling
Dr Ben Mather and Prof Louis Moresi from AuScope’s Simulation, Analysis and Modelling (SAM) program have recently developed a novel, speedy and data-driven way to model the …

Adjoint inversion of the thermal structure of Southeastern Australia
An efficient inversion framework that gives improved estimates of the thermal state of the crust in Victoria using heat flow measurements and Curie depth in a joint inversion using …
Reducing the uncertainty of lithospheric thermal structure: integrated modelling from geothermal, magnetic, and seismic data
Probabilistic methods for constraining lithospheric thermal structure by jointly inverting geothermal, magnetic, and seismic data using Bayesian inference.
Adjoint inversion of geothermal potential in Ireland assimilating surface heat flow, seismic velocity, and Curie depth
Temperature models for assessing geothermal potential are usually concerned with the upper 5 km of the crust. The configuration of deeper crustal lithologies, and the …
