MARGINS:Funded
Ship-based Trackline Geophysical Data (MGD77) from the PNG MARGINS Focus Site acquired during the Melville expedition VANC26MV (2004)
This data set was acquired with a ship-based Bell Aerospace BGM-3 Gravimeter during Melville expedition VANC26MV conducted in 2004 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Larry Peterson). These data files are of MGD77 format and include Gravity Field data and were processed after data collection. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Late Quaternary Siliciclastic and Carbonate Sediments and Sediment Fluxes on the Slopes and Basin floors of the Ashmore and Pandora Troughs, Gulf of PNG and Paleoclimates of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres (PANASH), and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE03-05250, OCE03-05373, and OCE03-05688.
