Seismic:Navigation

Processed Seismic Navigation Data (version 1) from the Aleutian Islands Margin, Gulf Of Alaska, acquired during the R/V Marcus G. Langseth expedition MGL1110 (2011)
This data set was acquired with the LDEO Multi-Channel Seismic system during R/V Marcus G. Langseth expedition MGL1110 conducted in 2011 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Donna Shillington). These data files are of UKOOA P1/90 format and include Seismic Navigation data that were processed after data collection. Data were acquired as part of the projects: Alaska/Aleutian megathrust and Megathrust seismic hazards by reflection mapping, and funding was provided by NSF grant: OCE09-26614.
