About this survey

A long-period magnetotelluric transect across the Fowler Domain of the western Gawler Craton, South Australia, recorded by Adelaide University between 15 November and 1 December 2005 on an east-west line about 394 km end to end from near Ceduna towards the Eucla Basin. Twenty-six sites were occupied as project FOWMT under Australian Research Council Linkage project LP0454301; the Geological Survey of South Australia releases seventeen through SARIG, and those seventeen are what AusMT serves. Each site recorded Ex, Ey, Hx, Hy and Hz on an Orange Box PAR24B logger with a three-component fluxgate, archived at one sample per second, with the 15 m dipoles the files declare. The transfer functions carry impedance and tipper with variances at 18 to 20 periods spanning 8.0 to 5461.2 seconds, and not one of their 6,066 estimate slots is empty. Files are served exactly as the custodian stores them, in the frame they declare. The survey is published as Thiel and Heinson (2010).
