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
|
|
Vibracores used to derive high-resolution sedimentation patterns post
|
|
Pleistocene geologic framework. Seismic used to characterize near surface
|
|
geology, as it relates to sediment inventory.
|
|
|
Summary
|
|
A total of 104 miles of seismic data and 29 vibracores were collected
|
|
for 97GFP01. Bathymetry data were collected from July 26 - Aug 3 and Boomer
|
|
data (17 lines) were collected from August 7 - 11.

Notes
|
|
- These FACS logs were generated by Chandra Dreher in June of 2003,
|
|
using the handwritten logbooks and personal accounts of the scientist and
|
|
crewmembers. Noted were some Nav equipment problems, which LORAN was used for
|
|
Nav during the Seismic survey.

Got Help?
|
For 97GFP01, we would appreciate any information on -- analog materials, contract, days at sea, dive count, funding, kms of navigation, national plan, NGDC Info, owner, project number, scanned materials, seismic description, station count, station description, submersible, tabulated info.
