TY - DATA T1 - Vector Magnetometer dataset (Fluxgate #1 @ 1 sample / 4 sec) from INGV/NEMO-SN1 seafloor platform during SMO project in Western Ionian Sea site (East Sicily), part of EMSO network AU - Giovanetti, Gabriele AU - Marinaro, Giuditta AU - Embriaco, Davide DO - 10.13127/MD/807DB7A9-2EF5-4682-8AA3-3EFB9C873A37 UR - http://www.moist.it/sites/western_ionian_sea/2/SMO1/vector_magnetometer/40 AB - This sensor provides the three components of the magnetic induction vector in the directions N-S, E-W and Z (vertical). It is a fluxgate prototype developed at INGV laboratories equipped with an inertial platform for levelling control. It provides continuous seafloor magnetic data which are important for two main reasons: a) they extend the magnetic observations from land to the seafloor, improving the spatial distribution in the Italian territory; b) these data are important for the study of short and long magnetic field time variations. The variational data allow us to estimate the resistivity structure underneath the area of observations and possibly to detect some magnetic variations related to some geo-hazards, such as earthquakes and tsunamis.
