Processed Acoustic Backscatter, Sidescan and Swath Bathymetry Data from the Pacific Ocean acquired during R/V Kilo Moana expedition KM1807 (2018)
This data set was acquired with a Kongsberg Maritime EM122 Multibeam Sonar during R/V Kilo Moana expedition KM1807 conducted in 2018 (Chief Scientist: Dr. James Gaherty, Investigators: Dr. James Gaherty, Zach Eilon). These data files are of MBSystem-compatible format and include Acoustic Backscatter, Sidescan and Swath Bathymetry data that were processed after acquisition. This data was processed by the science party with additional QA/QC performed by the Global Multi-Resolution Topography (GMRT) Team before inclusion in GMRT version 3.8. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Collaborative Research: Imaging small-scale convection and structure of the mantle in the south Pacific: a US contribution to an international PacificArray; Collaborative Research: Imaging small-scale convection and structure of the mantle in the south Pacific: a US contribution to international collaboration PacificArray. Funding was provided by NSF award(s): OCE16-58214, OCE16-58491.
