	Geodynamics Ltd acquire ANZ power technology rights
		Geodynamics on Wednesday said it had reached a $6 million agreement with US-based Recurrent Technology, a subsidiary of US company AMP Capital, to acquire the sub-licence and intellectual property for Kalina Cycle power.
		Geodynamics, which started negotiations to acquire the technology in April after being approached by engineering firm Siemens, will have exclusive licence and intellectual property rights to Kalina Cycle projects in Australia and New Zealand and non-exclusive rights globally.
		Geodynamics expects to establish a demonstration plant in Australia or NZ in the near future and will also bid to install Kalina Cycle plants on two geothermal power projects in New Zealand.

		Researchers will find Geodynamics to be an excellent reference tool for basic equations and concepts, as well as for definitions and numerical values of many physical properties of the Earth and other planetary bodies.
		"Geodynamics" has been a classic text in the field of, well, Geodynamics since the first edition came out, and it remains a brave attempt to squeeze a large amount of detail into one volume.
		"Geodynamics" is a good summary of the techniques used to try to understand the workings of the earth, but often leaves one with a hollow feeling that one hasn't really learned anything about the earth itself at the end of each chapter.

		The Geodynamics Program provides information on contemporary movements of the Earth's crust for studies of earthquake hazard and global change.
		Consequently, monitoring and modelling the buckling and squeezing of the Earth's surface in these areas, leads to a better understanding of earthquake processes and provides clues as to where and when the next large earthquake is likely to occur.
		The global change component of the Geodynamics Program is focused on the waxing and waning of the great ice sheets which caused the Earth's surface to deform due to the tremendous weight of the ice.

	Geodynamics Annual Report 1995
		Research within the Geodynamics Group is directed at processes that deform the Earth's crust and lithosphere as well as the Earth as a whole over a broad range of time and length scales.
		The broad objective is to seek an understanding of the physical processes acting on and within the planet through numerical modelling and analysis of geological, geophysical and geodetic data.
		These provide constraint both directly, through comparison to isotopic ages simulated in our models, and indirectly through the evaluation of cooling histories for local areas from collating the ages and closure temperatures of a number of mineral separates for an individual sample.

		Professor Wen's group's research in geodynamics is directed at understanding the relationship of large scale geodynamical observables (geoid, topography, plate motions and intra-plate stresses) with mantle rheology and convection.
		Mantle convection causes lateral variations of chemistry and temperature in the mantle and those lateral variations eventually drive mantle convection and produce signatures which are observable at the surface of the Earth.
		Most of the efforts in geodynamics is to understand deep mantle processes using constraints from those surface observables and seismic results.

		Structural patterns within the earth's crust to be seen in geophysical data, particularly in seismic reflection records, help to identify similar components of contemporary margins and of ancient terrains and, thus, give clues to their origin.
		The link between modern and ancient structural images of the earth's crust is a central theme in the Department of Marine Geodynamics.
