These data are required to support any potential claim for extended jurisdiction by the United States under United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) Article 76. The requirement is for the collection and processing of full-coverage multibeam sonar data in water depths of approximately 1000 to 5000 m in order to precisely define the location of the 2500-m isobath and the "foot of the slope" as defined under UNCLOS Article 76. As part of their NOAA-funded research program, University of New Hampshire (UNH) researchers at the CCOM oversaw data acquisition, processing and archiving of the data collected during the cruise.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:16 0 16 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>Gridded full coverage, processed backscatter grids were generated by reducing data for position, elevation, orientation, water-column sound-speed and refraction effects. </SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:16 0 16 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>Information about UNH Center for Coastal and Ocean Mapping field activity can be found online at </SPAN></SPAN><A href="http://ccom.unh.edu/unclos/reports.htm"><SPAN><SPAN>http://ccom.unh.edu/unclos/reports.htm</SPAN></SPAN></A><SPAN><SPAN>.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:16 0 16 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>Please visit the CCOM’s Law of the Sea Downloads Webpage (</SPAN></SPAN><A href="http://ccom.unh.edu/theme/law-sea/law-of-the-sea-data"><SPAN><SPAN>http://ccom.unh.edu/theme/law-sea/law-of-the-sea-data</SPAN></SPAN></A><SPAN><SPAN>)for download of this data as a ESRI grid, Fledermaus SD file, or ASCII file.</SPAN></SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
