Ship-based Trackline Geophysical Data (MGD77) from the Lau Back-arc Basin acquired during the Melville expedition TUIM05MV (2005)
This data set was acquired with a ship-based BellAerospace BGM-3 Gravimeter during Melville expedition TUIM05MV conducted in 2005 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Margaret Tivey). These data files are of MGD77 format and include Gravity Field data and were processed after data collection. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Sampling and Initial Characterization of Hydrothermal Fluids, Deposits, Microfauna and Megafauna at Vent Fields along the Eastern Lau Spreading Center and Venture Deep Ocean, Lau Basin Expedition 3 of 5, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE02-41250, OCE02-41796, OCE02-41826, OCE02-42038, OCE02-42088, and OCE03-28117.
