Raw ship-based Multibeam Sonar Data acquired during R/V Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP9905 (1999)
This data set was acquired with a ship-based SeaBeam 2112 Multibeam Sonar system during Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP9905 conducted in 1999 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Douglas Wiens). These data files are of MBSystem Compatible format and include Acoustic Backscatter, Swath Bathymetry, and Sidescan data that have not been processed. These data are included in the GMRT Synthesis, version 1. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): A Broadband Seismic Experiment for Study of the Tectonics and Structure of the Antarctic Peninsula and Scotia Plate and Study of the Structure and Tectonics in the Bransfield Strait Area, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OPP97-26180 and ANT98-14622.
