Summary
|
Phase I Geophysical Survey: 8 total survey days with Submetrix,
|
Knudsen, Edgetech. Lost 5 days to rebuilding stbd engine on Rafael. Data
|
collected: Submetrix bathymetry/backscatter, Edgetech sidescan, Knudsen seismic
|
reflection. Phase II Ground Validation: Occupied 100 target stations in 3
|
survey days, recovered 56 sediment samples. Data collected: bottom video, bottom
|
stills, sediment samples (grain size). 100 Stations Occupied. 387 km continuous
|
data.
