Purpose
|
Survey a previously observed sand wave field northwest of
|
Great Ledge at slack low and slack high water to determine if these
|
sand waves change during the tidal cycle.

|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Summary
|
Two surveys of the sandwave field at the east end of Woods
|
Hole Passage with the multibeam system were completed. Current
|
measurement was attempted, and the results were good enough to
|
obtain a mean velocity at flood. No grab samples were attempted.
|
|
Notes
|
This trip was a good test of the new system on the Gloria
|
Michelle. We found there were still kinks to work out, but the data
|
collected were adequate for basic assessment.
|
1 days at sea.
|
0.5 kms. of continuous data.
|
0 stations occupied.
