Equipment Used
|
|
|
Purpose
|
|
Determine distribution and thickness of fine wood waste (wood pulp) from
|
|
abandoned pulp mill that has accumulated in the nearshore and now has created
|
|
anoxic conditions.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Lateral and vertical distribution of buried fine wood waste and overlying
|
|
sediment, foraminifer community structural variations associated with
|
|
concentrated wood waste and anoxia.
|
|
|
Summary
|
|
Thirty two cores ranging 0.5 to 2.0 m in length between approximately -0.5 to
|
|
2.0 m above mean lower low water in Thatcher Bay.
