Water is a resource that needs careful management to ensure it is used sustainably. In this data set, students analyse real research data about the sustainability of groundwater on Rottnest Island.
Students will:
- understand the concepts of groundwater and aquifers and the role of the water cycle
- use MS Excel to construct simple graphs (or draw graphs by hand)
- interpret and analyse graphs and other representations of data
- investigate the effects of a changing climate on groundwater resources
- distinguish between correlation and causation

Role at ANSTO
Tony is jointly responsible for the day to day maintenance, running and ongoing development of the STAR and ANTARES accelerators.
Water Isotope Network
Currently ANSTO partners with the Australian Bureau of Meteorology to operate the Australian GNIP stations with samples analysed at ANSTO’s Environmental Isotope Laboratories in Sydney.
Biological small angle X-ray scattering beamline (BioSAXS)
The Biological Small Angle X-ray Scattering beamline will be optimised for measuring small angle scattering of surfactants, nanoparticles, polymers, lipids, proteins and other biological macromolecules in solution. BioSAXS combines combine a state-of-the-art high-flux small angle scattering beamline with specialised in-line protein purification and preparation techniques for high-throughput protein analysis.
Chronic kidney disease of unknown origin
In 2017, ANSTO's CEO signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Sri Lanka to work together to investigate the epidemiology of Chronic Kidney Disease of unknown origin (CKDu).
I’m an electronics technician working with the Data Acquisition and Electronics Group to assist in the design, development, installation and commissioning of neutron instrument electronic systems as part of NBI2 project. My role also includes deve

Tracing the impact of toxic metals
Two ANSTO environmental scientists are part of a large team led by the Australian National University (ANU), who have received an Australian Research Council Discovery Project grant to investigate how environmental change and human activities since industrialisation have impacted the transport and deposition of toxic metals on the south coast of Australia, Tasmania, and remote Southern Ocean islands.
Graduate Profile - Joshua Noiney
Fish farming is increasing globally to provide an affordable source of protein and income security for local communities. Joshua's research project aims to optimise production of tilapia to enhance food and nutritional security in PNG.
