Contribution of the Altyn Tagh Fault to tectonic deformation within the Qilian Shan, northern Tibetan Plateau: Implications from the electrical anisotropic structure

The dataset contains five folders. They are ‘MT’, ‘aniinv’, ‘isoinv’, ‘sensitivity_test’, ‘syn_mod_test’, respectively. The ‘MT’ folder includes the observed impedances for each MT site. In the ‘aniinv’ folder, there are three sub-folders include ‘azimu_ani_inv’, ‘gener_ani_inv’, ‘verti_ani_inv’, indicating the inversion results for azimuthal, general, and vertical anisotropic inversions, respectively. The ‘isoinv’ folder contains results for isotropic inversion. The ‘sensitivity_test’ folder contains modified models and their responses for sensitivity tests of anomalies. The ‘syn_mod_test’ folder contains a synthetic model constructed according the final model, the responses of this model, and the recovering for this model. In each folder, there is a ‘readme.txt’ file describing the details of individual files. The 'Software Availability.txt' file illustrates that the software used in 3D anisotropic inversion is available to academic community.
