This open file comprises approximately 15,000 km2 of SeaMARC II side-scan acoustic imaging data from the northern Juan de Fuca and Explorer Ridges. These data are presented in two formats: a mosaic at a scale of 1:250,000 and individual swath images (10 km x 12
km) at a scale of 1:50,000. A 20-m contour bathymetric map compiled from previously published SEABEAM datais included at a scale of 1:250,000. The individual 1:50,000 acoustic images can be easily cross-referenced to bathymetry by using the 10-m contour SEABEAM maps already published as part of the
Juan de Fuca Ridge Atlas series.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
