Ship-based Trackline Geophysical Data (MGD77) acquired during the Maurice Ewing expedition EW9008 (1990)

Dataset Identification:

Resource Abstract: 
This data set was acquired with a ship-based BellAerospace BGM-3 Gravimeter, Varian Inc. V75 Magnetometer, and Atlas Hydrosweep DS Multibeam Sonar system during Maurice Ewing expedition EW9008 conducted in 1990 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Lindsay Parson). These data files are of MGD77 format and include Gravity Field, Singlebeam Bathymetry, and Magnetic Field data and were processed after data collection. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Sidescan sonar and swath bathymetry investigation of the Reykjanes Ridge, southwest of Iceland.
