Processed Multibeam Sonar Data (version 2) from the Ross Sea acquired during Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP0502 (2005)

This data set was acquired with a Kongsberg model EM120 multibeam sonar system during Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP0502 conducted in 2005 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Julia Wellner). These data files include Acoustic Backscatter, Sidescan, Swath Bathymetry data and were processed at sea using the open source MB-System multibeam sonar processing software. These data are included in the GMRT Synthesis, beginning with version 1. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Shallow Drilling on the Antarctic Continential Margin (SHALDRIL), and funding was provided by the U.S. National Science Foundation.
