  • 3D vertically-polarised shear wave (Vsv) velocity model of West Antarctic crustal structure developed using data from the 2016-2018 UK Antarctic Seismic Network (UKANET) and Polar Earth Observing Seismic Network (POLENET). Interstation Rayleigh and Love wave phase velocity dispersion measurements at periods of 8-25 seconds were extracted from seismic ambient noise cross-correlograms by automated frequency-time analysis (AFTAN). The ensemble of interstation Rayleigh wave dispersion measurements was used to develop 2D Rayleigh wave phase velocity maps of West Antarctica at periods of 8-25 seconds by Fast Marching Surface Tomography (FMST) on a grid with a node spacing of 0.75deg. ''Local'' 1D Rayleigh wave phase velocity dispersion curves were extracted by sampling the 2D Rayleigh wave phase velocity maps at grid node locations. The local 1D Rayleigh wave phase velocity dispersion curves were inverted for 1D shear wave (Vsv) structure to 40 km depth, and the ensemble of 1D shear wave (Vsv) profiles were subsequently gridded to produce the 3D shear wave (Vsv) model of West Antarctica from 10-40 km depth. Funding was provided by the NERC standard grant NE/L006065/1.

  • 3D vertically-polarised shear wave (Vsv) velocity model of West Antarctic uppermost mantle structure to 200 km depth developed using data from the 2016-2018 UK Antarctic Seismic Network (UKANET) and Polar Earth Observing Seismic Network (POLENET). The model was constructed from the combination of fundamental mode Rayleigh wave phase velocity maps developed by ambient noise (periods 8-25 seconds) and earthquake data two-plane wave analysis (periods 20-143 seconds). Composite ''local'' 1D Rayleigh wave phase velocity dispersion curves (periods 8-143 s) were extracted by sampling the 2D Rayleigh wave phase velocity maps at grid node locations spanning West Antarctica spaced at 100 km. The local 1D Rayleigh wave phase velocity dispersion curves were inverted for 1D shear wave (Vsv) structure to 200 km depth, and the ensemble of 1D shear wave (Vsv) profiles were subsequently gridded to produce the 3D shear wave (Vsv) model of West Antarctica uppermost mantle structure to 200 km depth. Funding was provided by the NERC standard grant NE/L006065/1.

  • This is a survey over the changing topography of a massive ice type site, Peninsula Point (UTM 8N 573400, 7701000), within the Canadian National Landmark, NWT, Canada. These data can be used as a reference for future such studies to assess massive ground ice presence. This dataset contains the survey data from Tromino 3G ENGY instruments, collected from 2019-07-31 - 2019-08-03. The project files contain the metadata of each instrument position in UTM and acquisition times. Data were collected by Northumbria University and Natural Resources Canada. Funding was provided by NERC Arctic Office.
