Purpose
|
Cruise R1-01-WA of the NOAA ship Rainier was
|
a joint cruise of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
|
(NOAA) and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to investigate how the
|
three major deltas in southern Puget Sound faired during the
|
magnitude 6.8 Nisqually earthquake of February 28, 2001.
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Summary
|
Collected high-resolution bathymetry of
|
the Duwamish River Delta,
|
the Puyallup River Delta, and
|
the Nisqually River Delta.
