The data set provides unprocessed and processed seismic reflection data collected during Expedition PS59 (ARK-XVII/2, AMORE) onboard RV Polarstern in the central and Arctic Ocean and Eurasia Basin in 2001. Detailed data acquisition parameters for the profile are documented in the expedition report (Thiede, 2002, https://doi.org/10.2312/BzPM_BzPM_0421_2002). Metadata, recording parameters, and the seismic data processing sequence are documented in the EBCDIC-Headers enclosed in the seg-y files. Navigation information is included in the seg-y headers, and in the CDP-SHOT-latitude-longitude file (see data product). A ReadMe file additionally lists the metadata and recording parameters for the seismic profile. The data set is grouped into three categories: 1. Raw data comprise (a) demultiplexed seismic data in seg-y format, (b) a shot list of date, time and shot-number, and (c) navigation data with date, time, and coordinates. 2. Primary data consist of CDP-sorted data in seg-y format, and (b) navigational data in a conventional UKOOA- file. 3. The data product is provided as (a) stacked version of the seismic profile in seg-y format and (b) a list with CDP and SHOT numbers as well as geographical coordinates.
