SS200502 Mellish Rise Bathymetry 5m - 210m Multi-resolution AusSeabed products

This layer group describes multibeam echosounder data collected on RV Southern Surveyor voyage ss200502 titled "The geology and tectonic evolution of the Mellish Rise off northeast Australia: a key piece in a tectonic puzzle". The voyage took place between January 25th and February 19th, 2005, departing from Bundaberg (QLD) and arriving in Cairns (QLD). The purpose of this voyage was to; establish the nature and tectonic style of the margins of the Mellish Rise to help constrain plate tectonic hypotheses and the tectonic relationships to the nearby Louisiade, Queensland, Marion and Kenn Plateaus and to establish the nature and distribution of acoustic basement: is it continental and/or oceanic? This dataset is published with the permission of CSIRO. Not to be used for navigational purposes. The dataset contains bathymetry grids of 5m to 210m resolution of the Mellish Rose produced from the processed EM300 bathymetry data.
