About this survey

Forty-two broadband magnetotelluric soundings on two near-orthogonal traverses, about 350 km in all, across the eastern Capricorn Orogen of Western Australia, recorded in May 2011 for the Geological Survey of Western Australia and interpreted in GSWA Report 135. The survey is also called Marymia MT. Each site recorded two electric and two horizontal magnetic channels, and 39 of them a vertical one, on Phoenix MTU-5A receivers with dipoles set to magnetic north and east, for 35 to 51 hours, and was processed against a remote reference site. The served files are Phoenix spectra exports: 40 stations reach 2941 s and two stop at 1818 s, all from 0.003 s, and 39 carry a tipper. Nothing is rotated and no static shift is applied.
