The Energy Transformed National Research Flagship is conducting an integrated program of research directed at assessing the viability of the long-term storage of CO2 in coal seams.
CSIRO is bringing together scientists from Japan and Australia to discuss material flows and resource productivity, and share ideas on how the two countries can transition towards sustainable resource use.
Santa will soon be using the Internet to see what reindeer near the North Pole in Sweden’s Lycksele Zoo are getting up to.
From Santa’s cave to the neon-lit streetscapes of Australian suburbia, the dazzle of Christmas lights heralds the arrival of the festive season better than any harking angel.
CSIRO's Wealth from Oceans Flagship is focused on delivering ocean-based economic, social and environmental wealth to the nation. UPDATE is the e-newsletter containing news from this initiative.
Remote sensing of hydrocarbon reservoirs in the continental shelf can be made difficult by unwanted signals from ocean waves. A new technique developed by the OCEANMAG project, led by Dr Jeanne Young, unmasks the geological data, which can reveal whether reservoirs contain hydrocarbons or sea water.
A new report by CSIRO and the Water Services Association of Australia (WSAA) gives a clearer picture of water and energy use in Australia and New Zealand and highlights areas offering potentially significant water and energy savings.
CSIRO's proven technology for detecting and mapping buried mineral deposits is being applied to oil and gas exploration beneath the ocean with OCEANMAG.
The goal of the Energy Transformed Flagship is to halve greenhouse gas emissions and double the efficiency of the nation’s new energy generation, supply and end use, and to position Australia for a future hydrogen economy. UPDATE is the newsletter containing current news from this initiative.
CSIRO's National Research Flagships program last night won the highest category awarded in this year’s Prime Minister's Awards for Excellence in Public Sector Management.
This fact sheet gives an overview of biochar and its potential in carbon sequestration and improving soil health. (4 pages)
Dr Karen Kozielski’s research focuses on CSIRO’s Wealth from Oceans Flagship (Blue GDP Theme) and how we can improve the way that we extract oil and gas from our oceans.
Your Development is a website created to help land developers, architects and urban planners create climate-adapted, sustainable Australian suburbs.
Dr Bai leads CSIRO Sustainable Ecosystems Transitioning Cities research that is assessing future pathways for more sustainable cities, particularly in alternative energy, water, materials and built structures.
Mr Damien Farine looks at bioenergy opportunities for Australia’s agriculture and forestry landscapes.
This Farming Ahead article describes how CSIRO scientists have been investigating potential opportunities in energy efficiency, regional biodiesel self sufficiency and bioenergy production for Australian grain growers. (3 pages)
