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 Flinders Ranges, 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. Level 1 concatenated MTH5 time series data from Earth Data Logger sites in the Flinders Ranges, South Australia are presented per run, with MT_metadata following the AuScope MT_metadata profile for legacy AusLAMP datasets. Earth Data Logger sites have been resampled from 10 Hz to 1 Hz and rotated. Reference: Department for Energy and Mining, Government of South Australia (2023).

Lineage

The MagnetoTellurics time series data publication v2 (MTtsdp_v2: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.20754948 ) codes were used for the generation of the Level 1 concatenated MTH5 time series data products, with MT_metadata following the AuScope MT_metadata profile for legacy AusLAMP datasets. Earth Data Logger sites have been resampled from 10 Hz to 1 Hz and rotated to align with the local mean magnetic field direction. This dataset is derived from: Magnetotelluric surveys of the Flinders Ranges, South Australia as part of the Australian Lithospheric Architecture Magnetotelluric Project (AusLAMP) (Level 0 concatenated MTH5 time series per run; https://dx.doi.org/10.25914/jm8p-yn76).
