Pacific Sea Level Monitoring ProjectProviding a link between land deformation and tide gauge data

GNSS Time SeriesPermanent GNSS station records a continuous time series
• 10+ years at most PSLMP sites
• Seismic events can be detected and modelled over time
• Seismic uplift can be modelled out of Tide Gauge observations, and validated by the local monitoring survey.

Tropical Cyclone Risk Assessment of Pacific region
Assess changes in tropical cyclone risk between current and future climate for building, infrastructure and agricultural assets across the Pacific region

Global Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard Assessment
• Part of the UNISDR Global Assessment Report (GAR)
• Collaboration between GA & NGI (Norway)
• Contributions from several organizations (URS, INGV, USGS, IPMA)

Shallow Water Bathymetry from Space
• Physics-based inversion of optical remote sensing data
• Cost effective for remote regions and to “fill the gap” between traditional deep water survey methods

• Radar interferometry (InSAR) has been used to measure changes in surface height and model volcanic magma chamber fluxes. This example is from Rabaul Caldera
• This remote sensing method can be applied to other hazards (e.g. seismic, landslide) and over large areas.
Monitoring natural hazards in PNG
Deeper signal from sub-harbour magma chamber
Shallow signal from dyking radial to volcanic vent
