Processed ship-based Multibeam Sonar Data acquired during the Maurice Ewing expedition EW9011 (1990)

This data set was acquired with a ship-based Atlas Hydrosweep DS Multibeam Sonar system during Maurice Ewing expedition EW9011 conducted in 1990 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Paul Jeffrey Fox). These data files are of MBSystem Compatible format and include Swath Bathymetry 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): Ridge Segmentation, Plate Boundary Architecture and Behavior of Non-Rigid Discontinuities Along the MAR in the South Atlantic, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE89-17762.

本数据集由搭载于科考船的Atlas Hydrosweep DS多波束声呐系统采集，采集自1990年执行的莫里斯·尤因（Maurice Ewing）航次EW9011，该航次首席科学家为保罗·杰弗里·福克斯（Paul Jeffrey Fox）博士。本数据集文件采用MBsystem兼容格式，包含条带测深（Swath Bathymetry）数据，并在海上作业阶段通过开源MB-System多波束声呐处理软件完成数据处理。本次数据采集隶属于「大西洋南部大西洋中脊（Mid-Atlantic Ridge，简称MAR）的洋脊分段、板块边界构造与非刚性间断面行为」研究项目，资助方为美国国家科学基金会（National Science Foundation，简称NSF），项目资助编号为OCE89-17762。
