Geophysical data (sidescansonar, Geoprobe, ADP, handsamplegrab) of field activity J-1-95-SF in San Francisco Bay from 02/28/1995 to 03/01/1995 Project/Theme Near-bottom Particulate Transport in San Francisco Bay National Plan Environment Chief Scientist Dave Cacchione Activity Type Geophysical Platform David Johnston Area of Operation San Francisco Bay Location map Bounding Coordinates 38.25000 -123.25000    -121.25000 37.25000 Dates 02/28/1995 (JD 059) to 03/01/1995 (JD 060) Analog Materials No analog holdings. Index map Crew Dave Cacchione Chief Scientist, USGS Western Region Equipment Used sidescansonar Geoprobe ADP handsamplegrab Purpose Deployment of geoprobe to gather time-series data on near-bottom sediment transport and tidal/wind-driven mixing; determine effects of flow and bottom stresses on biological processes. Summary Completed side-scan survey on a site about 1 km NE of the San Mateo Bridge within the main channel. Also, deployed one geoprobe tripod and two ADCP systems within 200 m of one another in about 18 m water depth in the main channel. Obtained small bottom samples using divers for calibration of the optical instruments and for grain-size analysis. Got Help? For J-1-95-SF, we would appreciate any information on -- analog materials, contract, days at sea, dive count, funding, information specialist, information to be derived, kms of navigation, NGDC Info, notes, organization, owner, ports, project number, publications, scanned materials, seismic description, station count, station description, submersible, tabulated info.
