Description
Gridded bathymetry shelf, bank and slope environments of Saipan Island, CNMI. Bottom coverage was achieved in depths between 0 and -2796 meters, but this 5-m grid only contains data to -400 m. The netCDF and Arc ASCII grids include multibeam bathymetry from the Simrad EM300 and Reson 8101 multibeam sonars collected as of June 2007 by the NOAA Coral Reef Ecosystem Division. The sonar frequencies are 30 and 240 kHz respectively.
