Abstract:
This book contained various data obtained in the course of miscellaneous expeditions to develop and use underwater cameras to examine the seafloor. Please note that for the purposes of the usSEABED data collection, some data in this data set was created at the time of data entry by interpretation of the printed seabed images with the assistance of captions included in the original book.
Purpose: Seafloor camera development
