Description
Summary:This data set was acquired with a Kongsberg model EM120 multibeam sonar system during Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP0402 conducted in 2004 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Martin Visbeck). These data files include Acoustic Backscatter, Sidescan, 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: Cross-slope exchanges at the Antarctic Slope Front (ANSLOPE); Cross-Slope Exchanges at the Antarctic Slope Front (AnSlope), Leg 2, and funding was provided by the U.S. National Science Foundation.
