Magnetotelluric (MT) Sites database

<div>The Magnetotelluric (MT) Sites database contains the location of sites where magnetotelluric (MT) data have been acquired by surveys. These surveys have been undertaken by Geoscience Australia and its predecessor organisations and collaborative partners including, but not limited to, the Geological Survey of New South Wales, the Northern Territory Geological Survey, the Geological Survey of Queensland, the Geological Survey of South Australia, Mineral Resources Tasmania, the Geological Survey of Victoria and the Geological Survey of Western Australia and their parent government departments, AuScope, the University of Adelaide, Curtin University and University of Tasmania. Database development was completed as part of Exploring for the Future (EFTF) and the database will utilised for ongoing storage of site information from future MT acquisition projects beyond EFTF. Location, elevation, data acquisition date and instrument information are provided with each site. The MT Sites database is a subset of tables within the larger Geophysical Surveys and Datasets Database. </div><div><br></div><div>The resource is accessible via the Geoscience Australia Portal ( https://portal.ga.gov.au/), use Magnetotelluric as your search term to find the relevant data.</div>
