This data set was acquired with a ship-based Geometrics G-886 Magnetometer, Atlas Hydrosweep DS Multibeam Sonar system, and BellAerospace BGM-3 Gravimeter during Maurice Ewing expedition EW0007 conducted in 2000 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Brian Tucholke). These data files are of MGD77 format and include Singlebeam Bathymetry, Magnetic Field, and Gravity Field data and were processed after data collection. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Crustal Structure and Evolution of the Newfoundland-Iberia Non-Volcanic Rift: A Seismic Study of the Newfoundland Conjugate Margin, ODP Site Survey (Leg 210), and Studies of Continental Rifting and Extension on the Eastern Canadian Shelf (SCREECH) - 2-ship operations with R/V Oceanus, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE02-41940, OCE98-19053, and OCE98-19599.
