Raw ship-based Multibeam Sonar Data acquired during R/V Maurice Ewing expedition EW0001 (2000)


Dataset Identification:

Resource Abstract:
This data set was acquired with a ship-based Atlas Hydrosweep DS Multibeam Sonar system during Maurice Ewing expedition EW0001 conducted in 2000 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Craig Fulthorpe). These data files are of MBSystem Compatible format and include Acoustic Backscatter and Swath Bathymetry data that have not been processed. These data are included in the GMRT Synthesis, version 1. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Global and Local Controls on Depositional Cyclicity: The Canterbury Basin, New Zealand, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE97-31031.
