Data from expedition EAGER, Arctic Ocean, 2011

Martin Jakobsson

The EAGER (East Greenland Ridge) expedition was carried out during summer 2011 in Arctic Ocean waters off Northeast Greenland.

With the Swedish icebreaker Oden serving as the research platform, a range of scientific investigations were made. The main scientific goal was to investigate the geological origin of the East Greenland Ridge. Data provided in the database here comprise processed multibeam bathymetry.

The expedition started and ended in Longyearbyen, Svalbard, and lasted from August 17 to September 9, 2011.
