Purpose
Abstract The cruise SO112 was devoted to studying in detail noise in multibeam echosounding and to developing methods for noise suppression. The aim was to have a continuous grid in the study area were beforehand only single beam was an option. For this purpose roll- pitch and heave calibrations were undertaken and also representative sound profiles were measured. The responsible party did not provide other acquisition information.
