Indian Ocean Magnetic Anomaly and Fracture Zone Picks for Chrons 34y to 20o
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
This data set contains magnetic anomaly and fracture zone picks from the Indian Ocean for the Late Cretaceous and early Cenozoic that were used to calculate the Euler rotations published in Cande and Patriat (2015).
Description
The data set includes picks for 14 time intervals on the Southwest Indian Ridge and 17 time intervals on the Southeast Indian ridge. The data are in the input format used by the “Hellinger” software programs described by Chang (1988) and Royer and Chang (1991) to calculate Euler rotations and their uncertainties.
The data include latitude, longitude and an uncertainty estimate and are organized by plates and segments that are fit by the software. The data include picks from three plates, Antarctica, Indian and Africa. The output files from the Hellinger programs are also included.
