Raw LADCP Sonar Data from the East Pacific Rise at 9N acquired during the Atlantis expedition AT15-14 (2006)

This data set was acquired with a LADCP Sonar during Atlantis expedition AT15-14 conducted in 2006 (Chief Scientist: Dr. James Ledwell; Investigator(s): Dr. James Ledwell and Dr. Andreas Thurnherr). These data files are of Binary format and include Current Measurement data that have not been processed. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Larval Dispersal Along the Deep East Pacific Rise (LADDER-2), Collaborative Research: Oceanographic and Topographic Influences on Dispersal of Hydrothermal Vent Species, Development and colonization processes in Alvinella pompejana, Hydrothermal Vent Meiobenthos, Potential of hydrothermal plumes as a source of dissolved iron (Fe) to the deep ocean and a sink of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), Chemical Characterizations of Vent Habitats, Development, Growth and Cell Kinetic Studies in Riftia Pachyptila, and Preliminary Deployment of Magnetic Collectors for Examination of Vent Particle Dispersal, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE04-24953.

本数据集系于2006年进行的亚特兰蒂斯号探险AT15-14任务中，由首席科学家詹姆斯·莱德威尔博士及其团队成员詹姆斯·莱德威尔博士与安德烈亚斯·图尔赫尔博士共同采集，采用LADCP声纳设备获得。数据文件以二进制格式存储，包含未经处理的海流测量数据。数据采集属于以下项目之一：深海东太平洋隆起带幼虫扩散研究（LADDER-2）、海洋学与地形对热水喷口生物扩散的影响协同研究、阿维能拉·庞贝亚的发育与殖民过程研究、热水喷口微生物群落、热水羽流作为深海溶解铁（Fe）来源及溶解有机碳（DOC）汇的研究潜力、喷口栖息地化学特性表征、裂谷管·帕奇皮塔的生长、发育和细胞动力学研究，以及用于考察喷口颗粒扩散的磁性收集器的初步部署。项目资金由美国国家科学基金会（NSF）提供的OCE04-24953号研究资助。
