Processed ship-based Multibeam Sonar Data (version 2) acquired along the Juan de Fuca Ridge Spreading Center during the Thomas G. Thompson expedition TN177B (2005)
This data set was acquired with a ship-based Kongsberg EM300 Multibeam Sonar system during Thomas G. Thompson expedition TN177B conducted in 2005 (Chief Scientist: Dr. James Cowen). These data files are of MBSystem format and include Swath Bathymetry, Sidescan, and Acoustic Backscatter data and were processed by the GMRT Team using the open source MB-System multibeam sonar processing software as part of the GMRT Synthesis effort. These data are included in the GMRT Synthesis, version 2.0. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Time-Series Responses to a Mid-Ocean Ridge Volcanic Event and PMEL Deep Ocean Seismicity from Hydroacoustic Monitoring, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE02-22069.
