KNOX18RR Bathymetry:Swath
Processed submersible Multibeam Sonar Images (version 1) from the Mid-Atlantic Ridge - Rainbow Vent Field acquired during the Roger Revelle expedition KNOX18RR (2008)
This data set was acquired with a Imagenex 837 Delta T Multibeam Sonar system on the ROV Jason II during Roger Revelle expedition KNOX18RR conducted in 2008 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Anna-Louise Reysenbach; Investigator(s): Dr. Vicki Ferrini). These data files are of PNG format and include images of Swath Bathymetry data that were processed after data collection. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Diversity and Distribution of Thermoacidophiles and Hydrogen Oxidizers at Deep-sea Hydrothermal Vents, Organic Geochemical Investigation of Mid-Atlantic Ridge Hydrothermal Systems, In-Situ Chemical Sensors for Monitoring the Chemistry of Hydrothermal Vent Fluids at Mid-Ocean Ridges: Instrument Development and Field Applications, and Mid-Atlantic Ridge 2008 - Cruise Wesbsite, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE05-25907, OCE05-49829, OCE05-50800, and OCE07-28391. This data was cited by Seyfried et al., 2011.
