MERIAN during cruise MSM101 [dataset]. PANGAEA, https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.996417</Reference>
<Summary>Multibeam bathymetry raw data using the ship's own Kongsberg EM 122 multibeam echosounder was almost continuously recorded during RV MARIA S. MERIAN cruise MSM101. Data was recorded on 32 days between 2021-06-15 and 2021-07-16. This dataset contains mostly transit data in the North Atlantic Ocean. The approximate average depth of the entire dataset is around 3700m, ranging from 5271m to 40m. Ancillary sound velocity profiles (SVP) files from the cruise are added to this dataset. Data analysis of the multibeam raw data revealed that SVP has 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 contains incorrect depth measurements (artifacts) without further processing. Note that refraction errors can be expected due to the lack of proper SVP. Overall, it appears that the data quality is rather good since the gridded hillshade data showed relatively few obstacles. Data can be processed e.g. with the open source software package MB-System (Caress et al. 2024, https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6302801). ** For all details see the full metadata description at "https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.993545"! ** These data should not be used for navigational purposes.
