Summary
|
|
Swath bathymetry and backscatter from sidescan sonar: 8 days
|
|
of data collection, 340 km of tracklines, water depths 3-90 m;
|
|
Seismic reflection profiles: 3 days of data collection, 109 km of
|
|
tracklines; Sound velocity profiles: 15.
|
|
|
Notes
|
|
10 days at sea.
|
|
Data types: Seismic
|
|
Bathymetry
|
|
Sonar
|
|
Navigation technique: RTK-DGPS
|
|
Seismic reflection system failed after three days due to
|
|
software problems (SB Logger). Very frustrating.

Got Help?
|
For 08024, we would appreciate any information on -- analog materials, contract, days at sea, dive count, kms of navigation, national plan, NGDC Info, project, publications, scanned materials, seismic description, station count, station description, submersible, tabulated info.
