Multibeam bathymetry data from the Kane Gap and south-eastern part of the Canary Basin (Eastern tropical Atlantic).


ABSTRACT: We present a multibeam bathymetry dataset from eastern part of the Canary Basin and from the Kane Gap located north and south of the Cape Verde Islands, respectively. Special attention was paid to the deep-water Kane Gap between Sierra Leone Rise and Guinea Plateau. The Kane Gap is the only possible gateway that allows the exchange of Antarctic Bottom Water between the Sierra Leone and Gambia Basins. Bathymetry surveys were carried out during the 44th cruise of the Research Vessel (R/V) "Akademik Nikolaj Strakhov" in October 2019. The data were collected using the system RESON SeaBat 7150 (12.5 kHz) and processed using QINSy software. The multibeam bathymetry data are presented in tabular format (ASCII (*.txt)) and as digital elevation models in ESRI ASCII grid (*.asc) and GeoTIFF raster (*.tif) formats with a resolution of 100 m. The dataset is available with the article.
