Ship-based Trackline Geophysical Data (MGD77) acquired during the Maurice Ewing expedition EW9011 (1990)

Dataset Identification:

Resource Abstract: 
This data set was acquired with a ship-based Bodenseewerk KSS-30 Gravimeter, Varian Inc. V75 Magnetometer, and Atlas Hydrosweep DS Multibeam Sonar system during Maurice Ewing expedition EW9011 conducted in 1990 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Paul Jeffrey Fox). These data files are of MGD77 format and include Singlebeam Bathymetry, Magnetic Field, and Gravity Field data and were processed after data collection. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Ridge Segmentation, Plate Boundary Architecture and Behavior of Non-Rigid Discontinuities Along the MAR in the South Atlantic, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE89-17762.
