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

Ronne Ice Shelf in which AWI collaborates with BAS. Purpose is to obtain the ice thickness and bathymetry under the shelf using active seismics and pRES data. In season 2015/16, 125 bathymetric points
reach the shelf of 79th glacier in North East Greenland? To answer this question we needed the bathymetry at the shelf edge of 79th glaciers As ships cannot access this area, we planned a 36 km seismic
Wedge this pre-site survey aims at obtaining seismic data to deduce the following information: bathymetry below Ekströmisen in 40 x 40 km 2 area west of NMIII sedimentary and basement stratigraphy The
systems and sensors, including the navigation system and sensors from the meteorology, oceanography, bathymetry, and chemie are stored by the DSHIP (former PODAS) data aquisition system. The data are sampled
