Multi-channel seismic field data in the Scotia Sea and Bransfield Basin, acquired by the R/V Nathaniel B. Palmer in 1995 (NBP9507)
This 1995 R/V Nathaniel B. Palmer survey investigated portions of the southwest Scotia Sea and Bransfield basin, collecting 48-channel seismic reflection data, cores and dredges. The goals included collecting data to map the structural character and tectonic fabric of the evolving plate boundary in Southwest Scotia Sea, Shackleton Fracture Zone, and Bransfield Strait and to generate detailed structural maps of the seafloor of these regions. Funded by NSF grants OPP-9317588 and OPP-9731695.
