Equipment Used
|
|
|
Purpose
|
|
To evaluate the storage and transport of particle reactive, environmentally relevant contaminates through the Mississippi River and Atchafalaya River delta complexes to the near-shore Gulf of Mexico.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Sediment cores will be used to evaluate the distribution and concentrations of key contaminates.
|
|
|
Summary
|
|
Collected 7 vibracores along the Mississippi River and Delta.
