Processed near-bottom Multibeam Sonar Data (version 2) from the Gulf of Mexico acquired with AUV Sentry during the Atlantis expedition AT18-03 (2010)

This data set was acquired with a Reson SeaBat 7125 Multibeam Sonar system on the AUV Sentry during Atlantis expedition AT18-03 conducted in 2010 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Charles Fisher). These data files are of MBSystem format and include Swath Bathymetry and Acoustic Backscatter data and were processed at sea using the open source MB-System multibeam sonar processing software. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Acute Response of Benthic Hard Bottom Communities to Oil Exposure in the Deep Gulf of Mexico.

本数据集由搭载于自主水下航行器（Autonomous Underwater Vehicle，AUV）Sentry的Reson SeaBat 7125型多波束声呐系统采集，采集工作于2010年开展的亚特兰蒂斯号科考航次AT18-03期间完成，首席科学家为Charles Fisher博士。本次数据集文件采用MBsystem格式存储，包含条带测深（Swath Bathymetry）与声学背散射（Acoustic Backscatter）数据，并在海上利用开源多波束声呐处理软件MB-System完成数据处理。本数据集作为"墨西哥湾深水区硬质底栖群落对石油暴露的急性响应"研究项目的一部分完成采集。
