Purpose
Abstract The main goal of SO142 was to carry out interdisciplinary investigations on the timing of the Hawaii-Emperor Bend and the origin of lithospheric anomalies along the Musician Seamount Chain. Data from the Hydrosweep system were continuously recorded during SO142. In total 570 hours and 96871 swaths were recorded. Due to stable weather conditions, the data quality was usually good.
