Equipment Used
|
|
|
Purpose
|
|
Obtain diver push cores from selected sites in Western Long
|
|
island Sound : Manhasset Harbor, Little Neck Harbor, and Hempstead
|
|
Harbor. Two cores from each site.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Determine down core concentration profiles of Chlordane and
|
|
DDT. Analyses performed by scientists at CCNY.
|
|
|
Summary
|
|
one dive at each site/ 2 cores collected at each site.
|
|
Total of 3 dives Total of 6 cores collected
|
|
|
Notes
|
|
Collected a total of six push cores of at least 50 cm. in
|
|
length. Bottom Sediments very silty and underwater visibility was
|
|
less than a few feet. The weather was lousy and the boat (32 ft.
|
|
Sport Fisherman) was clearly not rigged for dive operations, but in
|
|
true USGS fashion-we endeavored to endure and succeeded in spite of
|
|
ourselves!!!
