AAS_4460_Reprocessed_ICECAP_Magnetic_Data

All scientific data collected by the Australian Antarctic program (AAp) are eventually described in the Catalogue of Australian Antarctic and Subantarctic Metadata (CAASM). CAASM can be used to search through AAp data descriptions, and it also provides links to access publicly available datasets, which can either be immediately downloaded or obtained from the Australian Antarctic Data Centre (AADC).

    Description

    This dataset includes reprocessed magnetic line data from the ICECAP program, for data flown in seasons 2008/2009 to 2012/2013 (ICECAP-I) and in seasons 2015/2016 and 2016/2017 (ICECAP-II). Processing steps are described in included README file. Data were reprocessed to correct temporo-spatial variations in magnetic field intensity and to account for differences in flight elevation and subglacial topography.

    Purpose

    The dataset is provided for use in geophysical interpretation, modeling and analysis.

    Quality

    Quality of data on flightlines is variable due to sometime noisy conditions, and occasional equipment issues; Base station data and other data required for corrections is also variable.
