KM0804 Backscatter:Acoustic, Bathymetry:Swath, Sidescan
Ridge2000:Funded
Processed multibeam bathymetry and acoustic backscatter data collected in 2008 at the Lau Basin during Kilo Moana cruise KM0804 (investigator Fernando Martinez)
The data set was acquired with a ship-based Simrad EM1002 multibeam sonar system. The files are in MBSystem format and were generated as part of a project called Investigating the Distribution of Hydrothermal Activity and its Geologic and Geophysical Controls at the Lau Integrated Studies Site. Funding was provided with NSF award OCE07-32536.
