Purpose
|
|
CRP surveying in Salt Pond/Nauset Marsh at CCNS
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Electrical resistivity data;salinity, conductivity, temperature data
|
|
|
Summary
|
|
Fifteen lines of data were collected, with approximately 7 in
|
|
Salt Pond and 8 in the northern half of Nauset Marsh. The cruise
|
|
was scheduled to take advantage of the unusually high proxigean tide
|
|
at about 11:30 AM which permitted access to parts of the marsh that
|
|
would have otherwise not been navigable. Part of the planned survey
|
|
area (esp. the eastern half of Salt Pond) could not be navigated due
|
|
to moderately thick ice. The rest of the area was either open
|
|
water, or was covered by only a thin layer of ice that could be
|
|
penetrated by the boat. Data were collected with the 50-m streamer
|
|
by a team on land holding the end of the streamer and stretching the
|
|
streamer out until the boat could pull it tight and start collecting
|
|
data. Data processing began on March 1 and incorporated water
|
|
conductivity measurements and fathometer data into the processing of
|
|
resistivity lines. Results will be communicated to WRD
|
|
collaborators to guide modeling efforts. Additional vibracoring and
|
|
porewater squeezing is also planned for spring/summer 2006 based on
|
|
results of this survey.
