Purpose
This cruise will be the sixth in the two year program jointly funed by
the USGS and the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority. The US Coast Guard is
generously providing ship time and at-sea support. The objective of the program
is to conduct long term monitoring of currents, sediment transport, and
physical/chemical characteristics of sediments in western Massachusetts Bay.
Information to be Derived
Sample, sediment transport and current data.
Got Help? For 91016, we would appreciate any information on -- analog materials, contract, days at sea, dive count, funding, kms of navigation, national plan, NGDC Info, notes, owner, project number, publications, scanned materials, seismic description, station count, station description, submersible, summary, tabulated info.
