Backscatter strength and shaded seafloor relief, Georges Bank, Fundian Channel, and Northeast Channel : sheet 1, Gulf of Maine.M183-2/7251-PDF

"This map is part of a nine-map series of Georges Bank, Fundian Channel and Northeast Channel (Todd and Courtney, 2014a, b, c, d, e,f , g, h). The nine maps are the products of a 1999–2000 bathymetric survey that used multibeam sonar systems to map 11,965 km of the seafloor. Other oceanographic expeditions to the area collected geological and biological data for scientific interpretation. This map sheet shows the seafloor topography of Georges Bank in shaded-relief view and backscatter strength (coded by colour) at a scale of 1:50000. Topographic contours generated from the multibeam data are shown (in white) on the colour-coded backscatter strength with an interval of 10m. Bathymetric contours (in blue) outside the multibeam survey are from the Natural Resource Map series (Canadian Hydrographic Service, 1966, 1967, 1971, 1972)"--Introduction.
