British Geological Survey (BGS) Geophysical and Multibeam Survey 2012/1: Moray Firth (27/Jan/2012 to 08/Feb/2012)

This British Geological Survey (BGS) marine geophysical and multibeam survey took place in January/Febuary 2012 in the area of the Moray Firth on board the RV White Ribbon. The purpose was to enable BGS to reconstruct the glacial history of the areas and place it in the wider context of the dynamics of the British Ice Sheet. Sea floor bathymetry data were collected using a Kongsberg EM3002D multibeam system. Sub bottom seismic profiling data were collected using an Applied Acoustics surface tow boomer (STB). These data are archived by BGS.
