BathymetryBathymetry is the measurement of the seafloor topography. Unlike the land surface, the sea bed surface cannot be measured directly via airborne optical methods (e.g. radar). It requires an echo [...] large research vessels. Only about 10% of the global seafloor has been mapped with high-resolution bathymetry by now. And for the polar regions this percentage is still significantly smaller. At the AWI h [...] high-resolution bathymetric maps. Together with high-resolution seismics and sediment cores , the bathymetry is used for the interpretation of glacial processes. Ice sheet scours on the Lomonossov Ridge in
