Equipment Used
multibeam
Purpose
Map the region between the 50 to 150-m isobaths south from the eastern edge
of De Soto Canyon as far as Steamboat Lumps. These data should prove extremely
useful in relating dominant species groups (which display highly specific biotope
affinities) to the geomorphology (e.G., reef flattop, forereef crest, reef wall,
reef base, circum-reef talus zone, circum-reef, high-reflectivity sediment apron, etc.)
Information to be Derived
Bathymetry and calibrated, co-registered acoustic backscatter
Got Help? For M-2-01-GM, we would appreciate any information on -- analog materials, contract, days at sea, dive count, funding, kms of navigation, national plan, NGDC Info, notes, owner, project number, publications, scanned materials, seismic description, station count, station description, submersible, summary, tabulated info.
