Deep Basins Actively Shape the High, Flat Tibetan Plateau

This repository contains two dense-array datasets (SAC files) for imaging the crustal architecture beneath the western Qaidam Basin and its surrounding orogens: event_waveforms_QB_2023: Event waveforms recorded by the Qaidam segment, which comprised 84 stations operating from November 2023 to January 2024. Owing to file-size limits, this dataset has been split into five archives (event_waveforms_QB_2023_1 to event_waveforms_QB_2023_5), each containing the complete recordings for a subset of stations:event_waveforms_QB_2023_1: stations 01–16event_waveforms_QB_2023_2: stations 17–32event_waveforms_QB_2023_3: stations 33–48event_waveforms_QB_2023_4: stations 49–64event_waveforms_QB_2023_5: stations 65–84Together, these five archives constitute the full dataset for all 84 stations; no data are duplicated or omitted across parts. event_waveforms_QB_2024: Event waveforms recorded by the Qilian segment comprised 39 stations operating from July to August 2024. Waveform windows are referenced to the theoretical P-wave arrival time. For both event_waveforms_QB_2023 and event_waveforms_QB_2024, each trace spans from 60 s before to 540 s after that arrival.
