Description
Summary:This data set was acquired with a ship-based Kongsberg EM120 Multibeam Sonar system during Kilo Moana expedition KM0415 conducted in 2004 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Mark Wells). These data files are of MBSystem format and include Sidescan, Swath Bathymetry, and Acoustic Backscatter 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 2.1. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Iron-Complexing Ligands-Subarctic Pacific Ocean, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE02-41752.
