Abstract United States Geological Survey, Woods Hole, Massachusetts. Chief Scientist: Rob Thieler. Seismic and Sidescan Sonar data (Navigation-DGPS, Navigation-Hypack, Seismic reflection, Seismic reflection-airgun, Seismic reflection-boomer, Sidescan-Klien, Sidescan-Submetrix, Need the standard suite of seafloor mapping gear (sidescan,, swath, 512i, boomer). Guns and related gear should be shipped to NC,, and will be used during the latter part of the cruise if needed., (Re-mob might require a crane to remove one of the vans and put the, compressor aboard. Date of re-mob TBD by results with boomer/512i,, weather, oracular pronouncement, etc.), Submetrix should be configured to run initially with the, 234s. Please bring the 117s for potential work over the shelf break, (water depth 60-120 m).) of field activity 08001 (M-1-08-NR) in Diamond Shoals, Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, United States, North America, North Atlantic from 06/22/2008 to 07/11/2008

Need the standard suite o (f seafloor mapping gear (sidescan,)
swath, 512i, boomer). Gun (s and related gear should be shipped to NC,)
and will be used during t (he latter part of the cruise if needed.)
(Re-mob might require a c (rane to remove one of the vans and put the)
compressor aboard. Date o (f re-mob TBD by results with boomer/512i,)
weather, oracular pronoun (cement, etc.))
Submetrix should be confi (gured to run initially with the)
234s. Please bring the 11 (7s for potential work over the shelf break)
(water depth 60-120 m).
Purpose
Map Diamond Shoals, NC
Information to be Derived
Sea Floor Map;Bathymetric Maps;
Summary
Research cruise. Collected multichannel seismic data
(watergun source), high-res subbottom (CHIRP and boomer), sidescan
sonar, and interferometric bathymetry and backscatter.
Notes
Navigation technique: dgps;RTK GPS.
Outbound travel day 22 June. First mobilization day 23 June.
Return travel day 12 July. GPS reference station being surveyed in
under field activity #08019, April 2008.
19 days at sea.
800 kms. of continuous data.
Funding
