Purpose
|
We collected sediment samples using Alvin from the Sludge
|
Max Site in the 106 Mile Dumpsite for sewage sludge. Sample were
|
also collected from Grassle's Long-Term Station 6 by box coring,
|
and from the head of Hudson Canyon from Alvin. This is a cooperative
|
multi-disciplinary and multi-institutional program. Five dives were
|
completed. This cruise was part of the Ocean Exporation Initiative
|
that NOAA is proposing for future Federal funding.

Summary
|
6 stations occupied.
|
We collected sediment samples using ALVIN from the Sludge Max Site in the 106
|
Mile Dumpsite for sewage sludge. Sample were also collected from Grassle s
|
Long-term Station 6 by box coring, and from the head of Hudson Canyon from
|
ALVIN. This is a cooperative multi-disciplinary and multi-institutional program.

Notes
|
The scientist for this 5-day leg will board a small boat on
|
Staten Island in the afternoon of September 14 and travel to Hudson
|
Canyon to meet and exchange personnel at sea early on September 15.
|
The Atlantis will return to the Intrepid Sea Air and Space Museum on
|
Manhattan on September 20. A press conference will be held at
|
0900 September 21 with tours of the ship to follow. Some USGS poster
|
displays are planned for view as the tours proceed.
