Processed Multibeam Sonar Data (version 1) near the Antarctic Peninsula acquired during Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP0201 (2002)

This data set was acquired with a SeaBeam Instruments model 2112 multibeam sonar system during Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP0201 conducted in 2002 (Chief Scientist: Dr. John Anderson). 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. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Late Pleistocene to Holocene Glacial History of West Antarctica, and funding was provided by the U.S. National Science Foundation.

本数据集由SeaBeam Instruments 2112型多波束声呐系统（multibeam sonar system）采集，采集工作于2002年执行的内森尼尔·B·帕尔默号（Nathaniel B. Palmer）科考航次NBP0201期间完成，本次航次首席科学家为约翰·安德森博士。本次采集的数据文件涵盖声学反向散射数据（Acoustic Backscatter）、侧扫数据（Sidescan）与条带测深数据（Swath Bathymetry），并通过开源MB-System多波束声呐处理软件在海上现场完成了数据处理。本数据作为“晚更新世至全新世南极西部冰川演化史”研究项目的组成部分开展采集，项目资助方为美国国家科学基金会（U.S. National Science Foundation）。
