Ship-based Trackline Geophysical Data (MGD77) from the Weddell Sea acquired during the Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP0902 (2009)

Dataset Identification:

Resource Abstract: 
This data set was acquired with a ship-based Gravimeter and Subbottom Profiler during Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP0902 conducted in 2009 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Ken L. Smith). These data files are of MGD77 format and include Bathymetry, Gravity (Field and Free Air Anomaly) data that were processed during the cruise. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Free drifting icebergs: Influence of floating islands on pelagic ecosystems in the Weddell Sea, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): ANT06-50034
