Description
Summary:This data set was acquired with a ship-based Kongsberg EM120 Multibeam Sonar system during Roger Revelle expedition RR0901 conducted in 2009 (Chief Scientist: Dr. James Ledwell). These data files are of MBSystem format and include Acoustic Backscatter, Sidescan, and Swath Bathymetry data and were processed by the GMRT Team using the open source MB-System multibeam sonar processing software as part of the GMRT Synthesis effort. These data are included in the GMRT Synthesis, version 2.0. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): DIMES: Diapycnal and Isopycnal Mixing Experiment in the Southern Ocean - Cruise 2, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE06-22825.
