Processed ship-based Multibeam Sonar Data (version 3) acquired near the East Pacific Rise (EPR) Spreading Center during the Melville expedition WEST01MV (1993)

This data set was acquired with a ship-based SeaBeam 2000 Multibeam Sonar system during Melville expedition WEST01MV conducted in 1993 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Tetsuro Urabe). These data files are of MBSystem format and include Swath Bathymetry data and were processed by the GMRT Team using the open source MB-System multibeam sonar processing software as part of the GMRT Synthesis effort. These data are included in the GMRT Synthesis, version 1. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): NSF-NOAA/PMEL Ridge Flux, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): DMA800-81-C-0023.

本数据集于1993年实施的梅尔维尔号科考航次WEST01MV期间，通过船载SeaBeam 2000多波束声呐系统（SeaBeam 2000 Multibeam Sonar system）采集获取，本次航次首席科学家为Tetsuro Urabe博士。本数据集文件采用MBsystem格式，包含条带测深数据（Swath Bathymetry）；数据集由GMRT团队依托开源MB-System多波束声呐处理软件完成处理，作为GMRT合成数据集项目的组成部分。本数据集已纳入GMRT合成数据集V1版本。本次数据采集作为NSF-NOAA/PMEL Ridge Flux项目的一部分开展，相关研究工作由美国国家科学基金会（NSF）拨款DMA800-81-C-0023资助。
