Initiation of multibeam sounding survey in the Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition
The Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition was initiated in 1956. During the initial stage of the Expedition (between the 1st and 5th Expedition; from 1956 to 1960), preliminary bathymetric soundings were obtained along the transect between the Showa Station and Cape Town. From 1987, a full−scale ma...
