Purpose
|
|
Shepard Meander Instrument & Sediment Trap
|
|
Exchange, Vibracore and Push Core Collection. See postcruise for additional
|
|
appropriate information (W-3-06-MB Postcruise.doc).
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Evaluate the recent history of sediment
|
|
transport through Monterey Canyon and on to Monterey Fan seaward of the
|
|
Shepard Meander. The sampling, which is an ancillary activity, is limited to
|
|
ROV dives in the vicinity of the Shepard Meander. This is a continuation of
|
|
earlier collaborative work with MBARI scientists.

|
Notes
|
|
(1) Station IDs reflect the Tiburon dive numbers set by MBARI.
|
|
|
(2) Sample numbers for the push cores are generally not consecutive but
|
|
reflect permanent labels on coring and other devices that are randomly
|
|
chosen before each dive, and many of the push cores are reused in later dives.
|
|
USGS sample protocol could not used during dives except for the Activity ID
|
|
(W-1-05-SC).
|
|
|
(3) Sample numbers recorded in FACS reflect only those samples that will be
|
|
brought to the USGS for logging, description, and, in most cases, archiving.

Got Help?
|
For W-3-06-MB, we would appreciate any information on -- contract, days at sea, dive count, funding, kms of navigation, national plan, NGDC Info, owner, project number, publications, scanned materials, seismic description, station count, station description, submersible, tabulated info.
