Long-period magnetotelluric time series at 9 sites in Scotland, UK
Time series of long-period magnetotelluric data collected between October 2023 and March 2024 at 9 sites in Scotland, UK, as part of the NERC projects NE/S007407/1 and NE/V002694/1. The data consist of measurements of the Earth’s natural electric and magnetic field variations in five channels and with a 1-sec sampling rate. There is a text file with the site coordinates, a single PDF file containing all relevant metadata, and individual ASCII files for each site named by the site ID.

- Statement
- The data consist of measurements of the Earth’s natural electric and magnetic field variations. At each site, five channels were recorded with a 1-sec sampling rate: The magnetic field components (Bx: north-south, By: east-west, and Bz: vertical) were measured using a fluxgate magnetometer manufactured from Lemi, Lviv, Ukraine. The horizontal electric field (Ex: north-south, and Ey: east-west) was recorded using non-polarizable electrodes. The installations were performed following the manufacturer's guidelines and best practices.
