Swath sonar bathymetry data used for that dataset was recorded during RV MARIA S. MERIAN cruise MSM05/3 using Kongsberg EM 120 multibeam echosounder . The cruise took place between 15.06.2007 and 04.07.2007 in the northwestern Barents Sea. The cruise aimed to investigate the interrelation between hydrosphere, geosphere and climate in the western Greenland coastal waters and the impact to environmental change during the Late Quaternary. For the identification of sedimentary basins the multibeam echosounder and the new parametric echosounder PARASOUND DS3 were used. In addition, multibeam bathymetric data acquisition has been deployed for the interpretation of the origin of various seabed features.
