MERIAN. The EM712 was deployed selectively in shallow waters (40–200 m) of the Nova Scotian continental shelf. It captured high-resolution bathymetry and backscatter data, also using equidistant beam spacing and motion-corrected beamforming. The EM712 datasets enable detailed mapping of shallow sedimentary structures and pockmark distributions, complementing EM122 observations.</description><description descriptionType="TechnicalInfo">These data should not be used for navigational purposes.<br/>Data publishing was realized by Henriette Kolling, Kiel University, Germany</description></descriptions><geoLocations><geoLocation><geoLocationBox><westBoundLongitude>-60.8844268</westBoundLongitude><eastBoundLongitude>-60.4618799</eastBoundLongitude><southBoundLatitude>43.39272285</southBoundLatitude><northBoundLatitude>44.5275455</northBoundLatitude></geoLocationBox></geoLocation><geoLocation><geoLocationPlace>North Atlantic Ocean</geoLocationPlace></geoLocation></geoLocations></resource>
