Ship-based Trackline Geophysical Data (MGD77) acquired during the Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP0004 (2000)
This data set was acquired with a ship-based Gravimeter and Subbottom Profiler during Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP0004 conducted in 2000 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Craig Smith). These data files are of MGD77 format and include Bathymetry, Gravity (Field and Free Air Anomaly) data that were processed during the cruise. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Bentho-Pelagic Coupling on the West Antarctic Shelf: The Impact and Fate of Bloom Material on the Seafloor, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): ANT98-15823 and ANT98-16049
