Broadband seismic data collected as part of the Macquarie Ridge experiment from 2020-2021 (NERC Grant NE/T000082/1)
Broadband seismic data collected as part of the Macquarie Ridge experiment from 2020-2021. OBSs were deployed around Macquarie Island, while terrestrial stations were deployed on Macquaire Island itself. The data sources are as follows: (1) 3-component broadband data from 10 IGGCAS stations with 60s corner period, plus hydrophone data. (2) 3-component broadband data from 5 Guralp Libre stations with 60s corner period, plus hydrophone data. (3) 3-component broadband data from 5 Guralp Certimus stations located on Macquarie Island. Four instruments only recorded for ~2 months, while the remaining instrument managed about 8 months of recording. Further details on the experiment can be found in Tkalčić, H., C. Eakin, M. F. Coffin, N. Rawlinson, and J. Stock (2021), Deploying a submarine seismic observatory in the Furious Fifties, Eos, 102, https://doi.org/10.1029/2021EO159537.

Data Quality
The data were collected by deploying broadband ocean bottom seismometers and land stations on and around Macquarie Island in the south west Pacific Ocean. The OBSs were deployed by the RV Investigator, and autonomously descended to the ocean floor. After 13 months, they were collected by the RV Tangaroa. The land stations were kindly deployed by non-specialist staff from the AAD research staff on Macquarie Island.
