During Leg 194, a series of eight sites was drilled through Oligocene-Holocene mixed carbonate and siliciclastic sediments on the Marion Plateau, northeast Australia. The major objective was to constrain the magnitude and timing of sea level changes in the Miocene. Site 1193, located on the Marion Plateau in 348 m of water ~80 km from the south central Great Barrier Reef margin, is probably the most important site for constraining the major middle to late Miocene sea level drop and reconstructing the evolution history of the Marion Plateau during the Miocene (Isern, Anselmetti, Blum, et al., 2002, doi:10.2973/odp.proc.ir.194.2002). However, there is no biostratigraphic or other chronological data for the critical interval between 36 and 211 meters below seafloor (mbsf) (virtually the entire late and middle Miocene) due to poor core recovery and a virtual absence of planktonic microfossils in the core catcher samples examined aboard the ship (Isern, Anselmetti, Blum, et al., 2002, doi:10.2973/odp.proc.ir.194.2002). The main purpose of this report is to refine the shipboard nannofossil biostratigraphy through examination of new samples and more detailed examination of those samples reported on board the ship. This results in a refinement for most of the nannofossil datums and provides some useful age information to fill the critical data gap for the middle Miocene. Previous Neogene nannofossil biostratigraphic studies of the Marion Plateau and Queensland Plateau include Gartner et al. (1993, doi:10.2973/odp.proc.sr.133.213.1993) and Wei and Gartner (1993, doi:10.2973/odp.proc.sr.133.216.1993).

Glacier thickness is an important factor in the course of glacier retreat in a warming climate. Thiese study data presents the results (point data) of GPR surveys on 66 Austrian mountain glaciers carried out between 1995 and 2014. The glacier areas range from 0.001 to 18.4 km**2, and their ice thickness has been surveyed with an average density of 36 points/km**2 . The glacier areas and surface elevations refer to the second Austrian glacier inventory (mapped between 1996 and 2002). According to the glacier state recorded in the second glacier inventory, the 64 glaciers cover an area of 223.3±3.6 km**3. Maps of glacier thickness have been calculated by Fischer and Kuhn (2013) with a mean thickness of 50±3 m and contain an glacier volume of 11.9±1.1 km**3. The mean maximum ice thickness is 119±5 m. The ice thickness measurements have been carried out with the transmitter of Narod and Clarke (1994) combined with restively loaded dipole antennas (Wu and King, 1965; Rose and Vickers, 1974) at central wavelengths of 6.5 (30 m antenna length) and 4.0 MHz (50 m antenna length). The signal was recorded trace by trace with an oscilloscope. 168 m/µs as used by Haeberli et al. (1982), Bauder (2001), and Narod and Clarke (1994), the signal velocity in air is assumed to be 300 m/µs. Details on the method can be are found in Fischer and Kuhn (2013), as well as Span et al. (2005) and Fischer et al. (2007).

Uniaxial strain consolidation experiments were conducted to determine elastic and plastic properties and to estimate the permeability of sediments from 0 to 200 meters below seafloor at Ocean Drilling Program Sites 1194 and 1198. Plastic deformation is described by compression indices, which range from 0.19 to 0.37. Expansion indices, the elastic deformation measured during unload/reload cycles on samples, vary from 0.02 to 0.029. Consolidation experiments provide lower bounds on permeability between 5.4 x 10**-16 m**2 and 1.9 x 10**-18 m**2, depending on the consolidation state of the sample.
