Abstract:
Multibeam bathymetry raw data using the ship's own Kongsberg EM 122 multibeam echosounder was not continuously recorded during RV METEOR cruise M84/1. Data was recorded on 3 days between 2011-02-10 and 2011-02-14. This dataset contains two short survey areas in the Mediterranean Sea (south of Cypress & south of Greece). The approximate average depth of the entire dataset is around 2800m.
The data are archived at the Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency of Germany (Bundesamt für Seeschifffahrt und Hydrographie, BSH) and provided to PANGAEA database for data curation and publication. No ancillary sound velocity profiles (SVP) from the cruise are archived at the BSH, thus no SVP added to this dataset. However, also data analysis of the raw data revealed that SVP has not been changed during the survey.
This publication is conducted within the efforts of the German Marine Research Alliance in the core area "Data management and Digitalization" (Deutsche Allianz Meeresforschung, DAM).
Data are unprocessed and therefore may contain incorrect depth measurements (artifacts) without further processing.
Data can be processed e.g. with the open source software package MB-System (Caress, D. W., and D. N. Chayes, MB-System: Mapping the Seafloor, http://www.mbari.org/products/research-software/mb-system/, 2021).
