AbstractThis marine multibeam survey took place from 15/06/2015 - 23/06/2015 in the area off Belhaven Beach near Dunbar, The Lothians, on board the RV White Ribbon. The survey was carried out by the British Geological Survey (BGS) on behalf of BGS. The aim of the project was to survey the near-shore region at Belhaven Bay to establish the extent of the sand shore face below low tide. The survey forms part of the Tyne Catchment Project, which aims to understand the dynamics of sediment sourcing, mobilisation, transport and deposition in the catchment of the East Lothian Tyne. Sea floor bathymetry data were collected using a Kongsberg EM3002D multibeam system.
