Processed multibeam bathymetry and acoustic backscatter data collected in 2008 at the East Pacific Rise 9-50N study site during Langseth cruise MGL0812 (investigator Suzanne Carbotte)

The data set was acquired with a ship-based Simrad EM120 multibeam sonar system. The files are in MBSystem format and were generated as part of a project called 3-D/4-D Seismic Reflection Imaging of the Magmatic-Hydrothermal System at the East Pacific Rise Ridge 2000 Integrated Study Site at 9 50' N. Funding was provided with NSF award OCE03-27872.
