DPLUS071 JR18003 Cruise Burdwood Bank MultiBeam 2018

"Bathymetric data of the Burdwood Bank were collected on board of the vessel RRS James Clark Ross in December 2018. On behalf of the Falkland Islands Government, the South Atlantic Environment Research Institute (SAERI), together with British Antarctic Survey (BAS), successfully competed for Darwin Plus funding (projej number DPLUS071) to begin investigations relating to marine resources, habitat structure and community composition, to better inform management decisions principally regarding marine spatial planning. A detailed report on the collection and processing of the data with an evaluation of data quality and surveying methods is presented in Appendix A1.1 of the 'JR18003 Cruise Report'"
