RC2901 Bathymetry:Singlebeam, Gravity:Field, Magnetic:Field
Ship-based Trackline Geophysical Data (MGD77) from the Southern Chile Trench acquired during the Robert D. Conrad expedition RC2901 (1988)
This data set was acquired with a ship-based SeaBeam Classic Multibeam Sonar system, Gravimeter, and Magnetometer during Robert D. Conrad expedition RC2901 conducted in 1988 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Steve Cande). These data files are of MGD77 format and include Magnetic Field, Singlebeam Bathymetry, and Gravity Field data that were processed after data collection. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Paleogene Geomagnetic Polarity Timescale, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE86-14508 and OCE85-11388.
