Full description

Long-period magnetotelluric (MT) time series data that measure natural magnetic and electric field variations at Earth’s surface were collected at various locations throughout the Eyre Peninsula and Kangaroo Island, South Australia. This time series dataset was collected as a part of the Australian Lithospheric Architecture Magnetotelluric Project (AusLAMP), a decade-long national MT survey jointly coordinated between government and research organisations through the collaboration of AuScope, Geoscience Australia (GA), state and territory geoscience agencies, universities and other research organisations. The AusLAMP project in South Australia was a collaboration between Geological Survey of South Australia (GSSA), the University of Adelaide, Geoscience Australia and AuScope. This record describes a collection of Level 0 magnetotelluric time series data products from the Eyre Peninsula and Kangaroo Island, South Australia.
