Title:

Processed Acoustic Backscatter, Sidescan and Swath Bathymetry Data (EM120) from the Drake Passage, acquired during R/V Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP1208 (2012)

Abstract:

This data set was acquired with a Kongsberg Maritime EM120 Multibeam Sonar during R/V Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP1208 conducted in 2012 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Amy Leventer). These data files are of MBSystem-compatible format and include Acoustic Backscatter, Sidescan and Swath Bathymetry data that were processed after acquisition. This data was processed by the GMRT Team and was included in the Global Multi-Resolution Topography (GMRT) Synthesis (version 4.4.0).
