Processed ship-based Multibeam Sonar Images from the Firth Of Tay Bay, Antarctica acquired during the R/V Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP0602A (2006)


Dataset Identification:

Resource Abstract:
This data set was acquired with a ship-based Kongsberg EM120 Multibeam Sonar system during R/V Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP0602A conducted in 2006 (Chief Scientist: Dr. John Anderson). These data files are of PDF format and include Swath Bathymetry images that have been processed. Data were acquired as part of the project: Shallow Drilling on the Antarctic Continential Margin (SHALDRIL), and funding was provided by NSF grants: ANT01-25480, ANT01-25526, ANT01-25562, and ANT01-25922.
