Establishment of Acoustic Reverberation Special Research Program (ARSRP) DataArchive

摘要

We have developed a database containing digital data collected during the Officeof Naval Research Bottom Subbottom Acoustic Reverberation Special Research Program. The data entered into the database include the acoustic data from the 1991 Acoustic Reverberation Special Research Program, the bottom bathymetry, side scan data, and seismic reflection data from the 1992 Large Scale Geophysics Cruise, the digital data collected during the 1993 Small Scale Geophysics Cruise, and the acoustic data collected on the R/V Cory Chouest, the RV Knorr, and the R/V Alliance during the 1993 Acoustics Experiment. The data is accessible by scientific investigators through the Internet or through copies to Exabyte and/or DAT tapes or magnetooptical disks at IGPP. The system provides an essentially permanent archive of the ARSRP data which as been collected at great expense and encourages the thorough analysis of this acoustic data.
