Whether you enjoy multimedia content, reading reports & publications or viewing useful data, ANSTO has all options covered. Our resources area showcases some of our breakout research and the people behind the science.

Local Environment

 

As part of its commitment to providing the community with accurate information on its environmental performance, ANSTO publishes live meteorological data from its 49m Lucas Heights weather tower every 15 minutes.

 

A summary of ANSTO's climate statistics including temperature, wind speed and direction, relative humidity, atmospheric pressure and rainfall recorded at this location are provided. ANSTO also collects data on ionising radiation from a monitoring station near Lucas Heights, and fine particle pollution on the NSW coast and other locations.
