Antarctic & Southern Ocean Data Portal

The Antarctic and Southern Ocean Data Portal, part of the US Antarctic Data Consortium, provides access to geoscience data, primarily marine, from the Antarctic region. The synthesis began in 2003 as the Antarctic Multibeam Bathymetry and Geophysical Data Synthesis (AMBS) with a focus on multibeam bathymetry field data and other geophysical data from the Southern Ocean collected with the R/V N. B. Palmer. In 2005, the effort was expanded to include all routine underway geophysical and oceanographic data collected with both the R/V N. B. Palmer and R/V L. Gould, the two primary research vessels serving the US Antarctic Program.

南极与南大洋数据门户，作为美国南极数据联盟的一部分，提供对南极区域地质科学数据的访问，主要涉及海洋地质数据。该数据合成始于2003年，名为南极多波束测深与地球物理数据合成（AMBS），其核心在于多波束测深现场数据以及南大洋的其它地球物理数据，这些数据均由“N.B. Palmer”号研究船收集。至2005年，该项目的范围进一步扩大，纳入了由“N.B. Palmer”号和“L. Gould”号两艘主要服务于美国南极计划的研究船所收集的所有常规海上地球物理和海洋学数据。
