|
Purpose
|
Lake Pontchartrain Geologic Framework and Coastal Processes study was to
|
analyze environmental change focusing on evaluating environmental conditions,
|
sediment quality, coastal processes and geomorphology.
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
Bathymetry interpretation for geologic shoreline changes. Vibracores
|
used to derive high-resolution sedimentation patterns post Pleistocene geologic
|
framework.
|
|
Summary
|
Bathymetry, boomer (24 lines), vibracore.

|
Notes
|
G-1-96-LA - These FACS logs were generated by Chandra Dreher in June of
|
2003, using the handwritten logbooks and personal accounts of the scientist and
|
crew members. Contains Vibracore samples with three different sample names
|
consisting of PON96-#, RIG96-#, LB96-#. These samples are stored at the
|
University of New Orleans, New Orleans, LA (for further information, contact
|
Phil McCarty pmccarty@uno.edu).
