Purpose
Abstract During the SO 174 cruise, the SIMRAD EM120 swath bathymetry system which has been installed on R/V SONNE since June 2001, was used continuously, parallel with dedicated PARASOUND surveys and OFOS deployments. Especially night transits between daily sampling stations and lander deployments were used for bathymetric surveys.
