Multi-channel seismic (MCS), sub-bottom profiler (SBP), multi-beam echosounder (MBES) and expandable conductivity-temperature-depth (XCTD) data and acoustic facies mapping results of the Central Basin in the northwestern Ross Sea margin, Antarctica. The Coordinate Reference System (CRS) for the MCS, SBP, MBES data and acoustic mapping results is WGS 84 / Antarctic Polar Stereographic (EPSG:3031). ). The geophysical data (MCS, SBP, MBES) and oceanographic measurements (XCTD) collected by the RV Araon are provided by the Korea Polar Data Center (https://kpdc.kopri.re.kr).
