Descriptions
Aztec Project Files and montaged large-area maps for EBSD data from garnet amphibolites and epidote-amphibolites from Mont Albert. Each sample has a folder with raw data that can be opened in Aztec. Samples KMA22-02 and KMA24-13 also include quartz vein data. For each sample, exported ctf, crc, cpr and H5OINA files for montaged large-area maps are provided; these can be opened in various processing softwares (e.g., AztecCrystal) or processed in Matlab with MTEX. No data cleanup routines have been applied to these data. The data is provided in 5 subfolders. Detailed information about the files in these subfolders as well as information on how the data is processed is given in the explanatory file Readme.txt. These data are processed, presented, and interpreted in the following article: Kotowski, A. J., Seyler, C. E., Kirkpatrick, J., & van Hinsbergen, D. J. (2025). Coupled Mineral-Mechanical Changes During Plate Interface Cooling May Explain Catastrophic Subduction Initiation. Authorea Preprints. Under review in Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth.
