Study of polar ice confirms carbon-climate feedback
Investigators have verified and quantified the relationship between the Earth’s land biosphere and changes in temperature and provided evidence that temperature impacts the cycling of carbon between land, ocean and the atmosphere.
Structure of molecules on nanoparticles characterised
Powerful combination of deuteration and neutron scattering used to characterise structure of molecules on surface of nanoparticles.

Powerful synchrotron light confirms the presence of rare diamond in stony meteorites
Australian and international researchers have used ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron to confirm the presence of an unusual diamond found in stony meteorites.
Some surprises about the degradation of microplastics in our oceans
The process by which plastic degrades in the ocean facilitates its entry into the natural carbon cycle efficiently as carbon dioxide.
Reducing, reusing and recycling mining waste
Two approaches use existing low cost and low energy technologies to reuse stockpiled waste from mining operations - capturing carbon dioxide in the form of valuable carbonate minerals.

Ionising radiation measurements evaluated in portable devices
Research highlights importance of traditional fire burning practices to ensure survival of tree with Indigenous cultural and ecological significance
Radiocarbon dating at ANSTO’s Centre for Accelerator Science provided strong evidence that some culturally significant trees on Minjerribah (North Stradbroke Island) have persisted for up to more than 500 years
Koala - Laue Diffractometer
Koala is one of the leading small-molecule crystallography instruments in the world for determining the complex crystal structure of a wide range of chemicals and minerals.
Discovery of molecular structure wins prestigious chemistry award
Research demonstrates the existence of hexagonal planar geometry in a transition metal complex with great potential application across multiple disciplines.
Jarosite on Earth and Mars
Useful in some mineral processes but a major problem in others, jarosite may be the key to unlocking the geological history and environmental context of water on Mars.
Surprise cell death discovery provides birth defect clues
Understanding of the role that programmed cell death has in development.
Surface coatings on Aboriginal rock art provide insights into climate environment
Radiocarbon measurements at ANSTO’s Centre for Accelerator Science have supported research published that provided insights into what the environment was like for the Aboriginal artists who created rock art over intervals spanning 43,000 years.
