- For 48 days from October-November 2013, the RRS James Cook sailed across the Atlantic for a palaeoceanographic study led by Dr. Laura Robinson from the University of Bristol. The expedition was the field-work component of a European Research Council funded project CACH 'Reconstructing abrupt Changes in Chemistry and Circulation of the Equatorial Atlantic Ocean: Implications for global Climate and deep-water Habitats'. The cruise included mapping, imaging and collecting cold-water corals using the remotely operated vehicle (ROV) ISIS as well as sediment coring and water sample collections. In addition to sample collection, 75,751 square kilometres of seafloor were mapped using the ship's hull-mounted EM-120 multibeam echosounder. Both the EM-120 raw .all files and 100-meter resolution ASCII grid files are provided in this data release.
