CYM_250M_MER_NAD27.TIF - Cayman Trough GLORIA sidescan-sonar composite mosaic (MER, 250 m, Clarke 1866)
From October 22 to November 22, 1985 the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted a single to survey to ensonify the Cayman Trough. The survey took place over the coastal region of the spreading ridge and along one line to the eastern extremity of the Trough. As in earlier EEZ reconnaissance surveys,...
