About EarthByte EarthByte is an international e-research project aimed at implementing interoperability of plate tectonic data and geodynamic computing services for applied and fundamental research purposes. EarthByte is currently funded through the AuScope National Collaborative Research InfraStructure (NCRIS) Program. It was previously funded by the Australian Partnership for Advanced Computing (APAC) and by an Australian Research Council e-Research pilot project and is a major component of the APAC Geoscience Initiative. EarthByte is leveraging technologies developed in international projects such as the Worldwide Universities Network. EarthByte Latest News/Publications January 2010 GPlates 0.9.8 has been released! View Page October 2009 EarthByte would like congratulate Patrice Rey on his promotion to Associate Professor! EarthByte would like to welcome Sue Taylor who has joined us as an administrative assistant. EarthByte would like to welcome Rolf Mjelde. Rolf is a Professor of Geophysics at the University of Bergen, Norway and has joined the EarthByte group for a 6 month sabbatical. EarthByte is pleased to release a global, present-day 'Plate Polygon' dataset. This dataset can be downloaded from the EarthByte Plate Model webpage, which provides background information and future areas of development regarding the EarthByte global plate model.

Download Paper A paper published in Geology, by Maria Seton, Carmen Gaina, Dietmar Müller and Christian Heine has resulted in a research highlight in Nature Geosciences "Spreading and Sealevel" Download Highlight EarthByte welcomes Fabio Capitanio from Monash University who will collaborating with Gabriele Morra (21st - 24th September) on modeling the interaction between the subducting and upper plate. EarthByte welcomes Paul Wessel from SOEST (University of Hawaii) who is collaborating with EarthByte on an International Visiting Research Fellowship. EarthByte welcomes Heather Wright from Monash University who will be collaborating with Gabriele Morra (2nd - 4th September). Dr. Morra has recently developed a fast-multipole boundary element method which is used to study the fate and interaction of bubbles and crystals and their relationship with rheology.
