Description
Summary:This data compilation comprises bathymetry data from several data sources. A detailed list with references can be found below. The raw data have been corrected for sound velocity and edited using common bathymetry processing software (Qimera, MB-System) and converted to ungridded point clouds in .xyz format. They have been further processed using GDAL and Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) to first reduce the point density with a blockmedian and to then create a coherent raster with a nearneighbour algorithm. The raster is referenced to EPSG4326/WGS84 with a resolution of 15s. It covers the larger area around the Cape Verdes. The bounding box coordinates are: 25.017, -34.961 (NW) 4.017, -6.972 (SE) List of cruises: Cruise: Chief Scientist/Data Holder MSM89: Johannes Karstensen/Geomar (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.923066) MSM88-2: Colin Devey/Geomar (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.918716) MSM88-1: Colin Devey/Geomar (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.919112) MSM87: Sebastian Krastel/CAU Kiel (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.965751) MSM82: Wolfram Geissler/AWI (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.902362) MSM79: Karin Zonnefeld/MARUM MSM70: Froukje M. van der Zwan/KAUST (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.922893) MSM69: Ingo Grevemeier Geomar (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.950420) MSM68-2: Stefanie Fiedler/Uni Köln MSM61: Björn Fiedler/Geomar (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.892656) MSM60-2: Anja Schneehorst/BSH MSM49: Bernd Christiansen/Uni HH (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.923080) M89: Jan-Berend Stuut/NOIZ & MARUM M80-3: Thor Hansteen/Geomar (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.935344) M79-3: Bernd Christiansen/Geomar (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.923998) M68-2: Peter Brandt/Geomar (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.958969 & https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.958981) M62-3: Ingo Grevemeier/Geomar (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.960035) M160: Arne Körtzinger/Geomar (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.928907) M159: Peter Brandt/Geomar (DOI: ...
