Marine Geoscience Data System
WEST09MV Bathymetry:Singlebeam, Gravity:Field, Magnetic:Field
Ship-based Trackline Geophysical Data (MGD77) acquired during the Melville expedition WEST09MV (1994)
This data set was acquired with a ship-based Bell Aerospace BGM-3 Gravimeter, Geometrics G-801/3 Magnetometer, and SeaBeam 2000 Multibeam Sonar system during Melville expedition WEST09MV conducted in 1994 (Chief Scientist: Dr. James Cochran). These data files are of MGD77 format and include Magnetic Field, Singlebeam Bathymetry, and Gravity Field data and were processed after data collection. Funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE93-02091.
