Description
Summary:This data set was acquired with a ship-based Kongsberg EM120 Multibeam Sonar system during Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP0805 conducted in 2008 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Ian Dalziel). These data files are of MBSystem Compatible format and include Acoustic Backscatter, Swath Bathymetry, and Sidescan data that have not been processed. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Central Scotia Sea floor and the Drake Passage deep ocean current gateway and Glacial radiocarbon contstraints from Drake Passage deep-sea corals, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): ANT06-36787 and ANT06-36850.
