Raw Near-Bottom ROV ROPOS Navigation Data from the Lau Back-arc Basin acquired during R/V Falkor expedition FK160407 (2016)

This data set was acquired with a Navigation System on ROV ROPOS during R/V Falkor expedition FK160407 conducted in 2016 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Charles Fisher, Investigator: Dr. Charles Fisher). These data files are of Text File (ASCII) format and include Navigation data that have not been processed. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Collaborative Research: Ecosystem dynamics of Western Pacific hydrothermal vent communities associated with polymetallic sulfide deposits; Collaborative Research: Ecosystem dynamics of Western Pacific hydrothermal vent communities associated with polymetallic sulfide deposits. Funding was provided by NSF award(s): OCE15-36331, OCE15-36650, OCE15-36653, OCE15-37807.本数据集采集自2016年执行的FK160407号福尔库号（R/V Falkor）科考航次，由ROPOS遥控无人潜水器（Remotely Operated Vehicle, ROV）搭载的导航系统采集所得。本次航次的首席科学家与研究人员均为查尔斯·费舍尔博士。本次提供的数据文件均为ASCII格式文本文件，包含未经处理的原始导航数据。本数据隶属于以下两项研究项目："合作研究：与多金属硫化物矿床相关的西太平洋热液喷口群落生态系统动力学"；"合作研究：与多金属硫化物矿床相关的西太平洋热液喷口群落生态系统动力学"。本研究由美国国家科学基金会（National Science Foundation, NSF）的以下项目资助：OCE15-36331、OCE15-36650、OCE15-36653、OCE15-37807。
