This data set was acquired with a Kongsberg model EM120 multibeam sonar system during Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP1001 conducted in 2010 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Eugene Domack). These data files include Sidescan, Acoustic Backscatter, Swath Bathymetry data and were processed at sea using the open source MB-System multibeam sonar processing software. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Collaborative Research in IPY: Abrupt Environmental Change in the LARsen Ice Shelf System, Antarctica (LARISSA), and funding was provided by the U.S. National Science Foundation.
