Abstract:
Swath sonar bathymetry data used for that dataset was recorded during RV MARIA S. MERIAN cruise MSM05/3 using Kongsberg EM1002 multibeam echosounder . The cruise took place between 15.06.2007 and 04.07.2007 in the northwestern Barents Sea. The cruise aimed to investigate the interrelation between hydrosphere, geosphere and climate in the western Greenland coastal waters and the impact to environmental change during the Late Quaternary. For the identification of sedimentary basins the multibeam echosounder and the new parametric echosounder PARASOUND DS3 were used. In addition, multibeam bathymetric data acquisition has been deployed for the interpretation of the origin of various seabed features.

Description of processed data sources:
During the MSM5/3 cruise, the moon-pool mounted KONGSBERG EM1002 multibeam echosounder (MBES) was utilized to perform bathymetric mapping in shallow water depths. 111 beams are formed for each ping while the seafloor is detected using amplitude and phase information for each beam sounding. For further information consult. For further information on the system, consult https://www.km.kongsberg.com/. Throughout the whole cruise generally a swath angle of about 120° was used. Responsible person during this cruise / PI: not stated.
Description of data processing:
Postprocessing and products were conducted by the Seafloor-Imaging & Mapping group of MARUM/FB5, responsible person Paul Wintersteller (seafloor-imaging@marum.de). The open source software MB-System (Caress, D. W., and D. N. Chayes, MB-System: Mapping the Seafloor, https://www.mbari.org/products/research-software/mb-system, 2017) was utilized for this purpose. Tide and a sound velocity profile were applied to the MSM5/3 data; there were no corrections for roll, pitch and heave applied. Using Mbeditviz, artefacts were cleaned manually. NetCDF (GMT) grids of the edited data as well as statistics were created with mbgrid. The published bathymetric EM1002 grid of the cruise MSM5/3 has a resolution of 35 m. No total propagated uncertainty (TPU) has been calculated to gather vertical or horizontal accuracy. A higher resolution is, at least partly, achievable. The grid extended with _num represents a raster dataset with the statistical number of beams/depths taken into account to create the depth of the cell. The extended _sd -grid contains the standard deviation for each cell. The DTMs projections are given in Geographic coordinate system Lat/Lon; Geodetic Datum: WGS84. All grids produced are retrievable through the PANGAEA database (www.pangaea.de).
