Raw ship-based Multibeam Sonar Data acquired during R/V Maurice Ewing expedition EW0008 (2000)

This data set was acquired with a ship-based Atlas Hydrosweep DS Multibeam Sonar system during Maurice Ewing expedition EW0008 conducted in 2000 (Chief Scientist: Dr. W. Steven Holbrook). These data files are of MBSystem Compatible format and include Acoustic Backscatter and Swath Bathymetry data that have not been processed. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Three-Dimensional Structure and Physical Properties of a Methane Hydrate Deposit and Methane Gas Reservoir, Blake Ridge, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE99-10966.

本数据集系采用搭载于船舶的Atlas Hydrosweep DS多波束声纳系统，在2000年执行的Maurice Ewing探险EW0008任务中采集而成（首席科学家：W. Steven Holbrook博士）。这些数据文件采用了与MBSystem兼容的格式，并包含了未经处理的声学后向散射和测深数据。数据采集作为项目的一部分，即关于布莱克岭甲烷水合物沉积和甲烷气藏的三维结构和物理特性研究，并由NSF（美国国家科学基金会）资助，资助编号为OCE99-10966。
