Five-meter bathymetric map of Atlantis Bank created by WHOI scientist Maurice Tivey from the James Clark Ross echo sounding tracks in collaboration with the other scientists on the cruise. The extraordinary high-resolution map shows the very top of Atlantis Bank with the wave cut platform and the precipitous sea cliffs to either side. One can see old headlands and seastacks in the image, as well as the great arcuate fossil lagoon on the west side where oolitic limestones were dredged.
