Mechanism for the Uplift of Gongga Shan in the Southeastern Tibetan Plateau Constrained by 3D Magnetotelluric Data

The *.data, *.rho, and *.zip files are associated with a paper titled 'Mechanism for the Uplift of Gongga Shan in the Southeastern Tibetan Plateau Constrained by 3D Magnetotelluric Data' in Geophysical Research Letters published in 2022. On the basis of this data and inversion model, we addressed that the rapid uplift of the Gongga Shan massif likely occurred by the underthrusting of the Yangtze Craton. More details about the electrical resistivity model and its interpretations can be found in our journal paper. 

All the resulting files from ModEM are included in the 'ModEM_Inversion_Results.zip'. All the figures in the paper and supplementary are included in the 'GRL_All_Figures.zip' and 'Figure_S5_All_Responses.zip'.

The resulting model and data output in ModEM format can be found in .rho and .data files. The ModEM is an open-source code package for MT 3D inversion, which is provided by Gary Egbert, Anna Kelbert, and Naser Meqbel and can be found on this website: https://sites.google.com/site/modularem/download. 

Please note that the 3D resistivity model files in general format includes four columns -- longitude, latitude, depth, and resistivity, the one who wants to plot the model via GMT, MATLAB, Surface, etc., can find these files in 'Gongga_3D_Resistivity_Model_Files.zip'. In this zip, you will find the resistivity model of each horizontal slice of different depths and a file including all the slices. A MATLAB script called 'see_slice.m' is included in the folder which can help to quickly view these resistivity slices.
