EW9510 Velocity:Sound

Processed XBT Expendable Probe Data from the Woodlark Back-arc Basin acquired during the Maurice Ewing expedition EW9510 (1995)

This data set was acquired with a Sparton XBT Expendable Probe during Maurice Ewing expedition EW9510 conducted in 1995 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Brian Taylor). These data files are of Text File (ASCII) format and include Sound Velocity data that have not been processed. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Propagating Rifts and Spreading Centers into Continents: The Woodlark Basin, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE92-01691 and OCE95-03505.
