Description

Magnetotelluric data

Processed data from 90 magnetotelluric broadband stations acquired in are available in Electrical Data Interchange (EDI) and ModEM format.

The MMT data were recorded in 2007 by WesternGeco Electromagnetics as part of the National Observatory Rio de Janeiro project funded by Petrobras. The campaign comprised a total of 92 sites from shallow water (about 50 m depth) to deep water (about 1600 m depth). The stations are placed along three NW-SE parallel profiles in the northwest part of Santos basin. The central profile  is approximately 160 km long and consists of 56 stations, while the west profile and east profile extend about 55 km each and contain 18 and 16 stations, respectively.

 

Models

Inversion models and predicted data are present for two different starting resistivity model testes 10 and 1 Ohm.m. The inversion models were estimated using ModEM - modular system for inversion of electromagnetic geophysical data.
