Abstract:
This data set was acquired with a ship-based SeaBeam 2112 Multibeam Sonar system during Knorr expedition KN182-09 conducted in 2005 (Chief Scientist: Dr. James Moffett). These data files are of MBSystem format and include Swath Bathymetry, Acoustic Backscatter, and Sidescan data and were processed by the GMRT Team using the open source MB-System multibeam sonar processing software as part of the GMRT Synthesis effort. These data are included in the GMRT Synthesis, version 2.1. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Speciation of Bioactive Metals in Oxygen Minimum Zones, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE03-27225 and OCE03-27544.
