This dataset contains magnetotelluric data and a 3D inversion model from the 09GA-GA1 deep magnetotelluric transect, collected in Central Australia in 2009. The transect is 350 km long, with data acquired from 18 stations with both broadband and long period instrumentation, and 21 stations with broadband instrumentation only (a total of 39 sites). The resulting station spacing is 10km for the broadband stations, and 20km for stations with both broadband and long period instrumentation. We have reprocessed the broadband data using the Bounded Influence, Remote Reference Processing software (BIRRP), yielding an extended bandwidth of 0.003 to 1300 s and merged these data with the long period data. We have inverted the data using the ModEM 3D inversion code. More details on the data processing, analysis, modelling, and interpretation can be found in the following paper: Kirkby, A. and Duan, J., 2019.
