EW9102 Bathymetry:Singlebeam, Gravity:Field, Magnetic:Field
Ship-based Trackline Geophysical Data (MGD77) from the East Pacific Rise acquired during the Maurice Ewing expedition EW9102 (1991)
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 EW9102 conducted in 1991 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Robert Detrick). 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): Two-Ship Multichannel Seismic Investigation of the East Pacific Rise South of the Garret Fracture Zone, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE90-12596, OCE90-12707, OCE90-12781, OCE91-02899, and OCE92-96017.
