Gridded bathymetry from multibeam echosounder EM120 data of the cruise M72/1 (2007)

Bathymetry based on data recorded during M72-1 between 07.02.2007 and 20.02.2007 in the Black Sea. The main focus of the cruise were gas vents and seeps in the north-western Black Sea below 700 m water depth which is the zone of gas hydrate stability. The main target area was the deep Dniepr Canyon west of the Crimea Peninsula where previous investigations had indicated the occurrence of gas seepage.
