Submissions to the National Research Infrastructure Roadmap published

Curious about what people said in their submissions to the Australian Government’s National Research Infrastructure Roadmap, which will help shape national eResearch for the coming decade?

A program manager and bioinformatician join QCIF's team

QCIF has two new team members — Dr Jeff Christiansen, a program manager for health and life sciences data projects, and Thom Cuddihy, a bioinformatician who doubles as a software developer.

QCIF trials object storage access for QRIScloud data collections

Due to popular demand, QCIF is currently trialling an object storage interface for QRIScloud data collections with a small number of researchers and research groups.

New QRIScompute service supporting research community portals

QRIScloud has a new compute service designed to host research portals that support communities of researchers and research groups by giving their members access to a portfolio of data collections and computational tools.

Live traffic congestion mapping

Providing travellers with real-time information on traffic conditions and congestion in the South East Queensland area. 

Visualisation of methane gas on Little Nerang Dam

The interactive 3D visualisation shows how the greenhouse gas is generated in the dam's sedement zone. It allows non-technical stakeholders to make better informed decisions about methane management.

Improving the Automated force field Topology Builder (ATB) and repository

Helping the UQ Molecular Dynamics group to improve the capacity of their software to handle at least 100 molecules at a time, up from 20, QCIF has enabled the group to continue its disease research at the cutting edge.

Tropical Data Hub

The Tropical Data Hub (TDH) is a JCU developed centralised data store making it easier for researchers to manage data related to the tropics. An open portal, it facilitates a multi-disciplinary approach to issues around climate change and conservation.

Adapting to climate change: Terra Nova

There's an important distinction between climate change and climate change adaptation. Research into climate change looks at questions of how the climate is changing and how this change will affect the environment. Climate change adaptation looks at how we can respond to these changes – how we can reduce the impacts of stresses on human and natural systems including our cities and regions, our agriculture and aquaculture, and the biodiversity of our environment, and how we can harness any beneficial opportunities. In other words, what should we do to prepare and adapt?
