Title:
Seismic P-wave velocity models (netCDF format) for Bransfield Strait (NBP0002, NBP0007A, 2000)
Abstract:
These two-dimensional seismic P-wave velocity models are derived from inversion of ocean bottom data collected in Bransfield Strait during year 2000 R/V Nathaniel B. Palmer cruises NBP0002 and NBP0007A. The velocity files are in GMT-compatible netCDF grid format with grid parameters as follows: The x-coordinate is profile distance in km (grid interval 0.1 km), the y-coordinate is depth in km below the sea surface (grid interval 0.1 km), and the z-values are P-wave velocities in km/s. The files with "velm" in the name are masked to show only regions with ray coverage. The data set was generated as part of the project called The Young Marginal Basin as a Key to Understanding the Rift-Drift Transition and Andean Orogenesis: OBS Refraction Profiling for Crustal Structure in Bransfield Strait with funding from NSF award OPP98-14041.
