Abstract:
This data set was acquired with a ship-based Kongsberg EM122 Multibeam Sonar system during Marcus G. Langseth expedition MGL1115 conducted in 2011 (Chief Scientist: Dr. James Gaherty). These data files are of MBSystem format and include Swath Bathymetry, Sidescan, and Acoustic Backscatter 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 2.5. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Collaborative Research: Structure and Composition of Oceanic Lithosphere and the Lithosphere/Asthenosphere Boundary and NoMELT, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE09-27172, OCE09-28270, and OCE09-28663.
