SE MEDITERRANEAN BATHYMETRY FROM SATELLITE ALTIMETERS
The 50m-interval isobaths presented here are calculated from point data derived from a blending of depth soundings collected from ships with detailed gravity anomaly information
Point data was obtained from the NOAA Office of Research and Applications, Oceanic Research and Applications Division, Laboratory for Satellite Altimetry
