Ship-based Trackline Geophysical Data (MGD77) from the Exmouth Plateau acquired during the Maurice Ewing expedition EW0113 (2001)
This data set was acquired with a ship-based Geometrics G-886 Magnetometer, BellAerospace BGM-3 Gravimeter, and Atlas Hydrosweep DS2 Multibeam Sonar system during Maurice Ewing expedition EW0113 conducted in 2001 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Neal Driscoll). These data files are of MGD77 format and include Gravity Field, Magnetic Field, and Singlebeam Bathymetry data and were processed after data collection. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Geophysical Investigation of the Gulf of Aden: Determining How Hotspot Proximity Affects Tectonic, Magmatic and Stratigraphic Development of Conjugate Margin, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE02-96103, OCE99-11877, OCE99-11962, and OCE99-12007.
