Layer 2A constant-velocity processed MCS stacks, South Atlantic CREST transect survey (MGL1601, 2016)
This data set provides the layer 2A processed MCS stacked sections from the Crustal Reflectivity Experiment Southern Transect (CREST) survey in the South Atlantic, MGL1601. The CREST survey continuously imaged a 70-million-year age window of oceanic crust generated at the same spreading segment and was designed to investigate the long-term evolution of oceanic crust. Data was collected in 2016 using R/V Marcus Langseth. The survey lines in this data set are processed using a constant velocity to best flatten the Layer 2A retrograde refraction arrival and presented in SEG-Y format. The processing workflow is described in detail in Estep et al. 2019 https://doi.org/10.1029/2019JB017302. Funding for the CREST project was provided by NSF awards OCE15-37108 and OCE15-37169
