This data set was acquired with a Kongsberg Maritime EM122 Multibeam Sonar during R/V Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP1701 conducted in 2016 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Tatiana Rynearson, Investigator: Dr. Tatiana Rynearson). These data files are of MBSystem-compatible format and include Acoustic Backscatter and Swath Bathymetry data that have not been processed. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): NSFGEO-NERC: Evolutionary Response of Southern Ocean Diatoms to Environmental Change; Collaborative Research: Pathways of Circumpolar Deep Water to West Antarctica from Profiling Float and Satellite Measurements; Southern Ocean Carbon and Climate Observations and Modeling (SOCCOM). Funding was provided by NSF award(s): ANT14-25989, PLR13-41496, PLR15-43245.
