Purpose
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Geometry, structure, and stratigraphy of the hydrate zone; Reflection coefficients and estimates of physical properties of the sedimentary section.
|
|
|
Summary
|
|
Detailed seismic investigation of the gas hydrate stability zone in the Gulf of Mexico, using a wide range of very-high frequency seismic data sampled at very high rates (16 Khz to 200 Khz)

Notes
|
|
The R/V Tommy Munro is owned and operated by the Univ. of Southern
|
|
Mississippi Institute of Marine Sciences. The ship operates out of Biloxi,
|
|
Mississippi. The cruise was a cooperative venture between the USGS and the
|
|
Univ. of Mississippi (McGee), USGS-MMRI cruise.
