2011/8_SNH: Moray Firth: Southern Trench: 1/128

This marine multibeam survey took place in August 2011 in the area around Noss Head and the Southern Trench in the Moray Firth on board the Northern Lighthouse Board vessel NLV Pole Star. The survey was carried out by the British Geological Survey (BGS) on behalf of Marine Scotland and Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) for Marine Protected Area (MPAs) related studies. Sea floor bathymetry data were collected using a Kongsberg EM3002D multibeam system.
