IBCSO V2.0: Progress to a new bathymetry off Antarctica
The aim of the International Bathymetric Chart of the Southern Ocean (IBCSO) project is to create high-resolution bathymetric compilations for the waters off Antarctica. Detailed knowledge of seafloor morphology is fundamental to almost all marine and maritime scientific activities. The size, remote...
