Equipment Used
|
|
|
Purpose
|
|
Lake Pontchartrain Geologic Framework and Coastal Processes study was to
|
|
analyze environmental change focusing on evaluating environmental conditions,
|
|
sediment quality, coastal processes and geomorphology.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Vibracores used to derive high-resolution sedimentation patterns of
|
|
post Pleistocene geologic framework. Box cores to determine down core
|
|
geochronology, contaminate history and palynological studies.
|
|
|
Summary
|
|
A total of 75 cores were collected; 26 vibracores and 49 box cores.
|
|
|
Notes
|
|
These FACS logs were generated by Chandra Dreher in June of 2003, using
|
|
the handwritten logbooks and personal accounts of the scientist and crew
|
|
members.
|
|
|
Box cores with sample site number IDs are stored at the USGS St. Petersburg
|
|
downstairs SE corner core lab (contact Jack Kindinger jkindinger@usgs.gov).
|
|
|
Vibracores with sample ID name PON97 are stored at the University of New
|
|
Orleans, New Orleans (contact Phil McCarty pmccarty@uno.edu).
|
|

Got Help?
|
For 98GPF01, we would appreciate any information on -- analog materials, contract, days at sea, dive count, funding, kms of navigation, national plan, NGDC Info, owner, project number, scanned materials, seismic description, station count, station description, submersible, tabulated info.
