Information to be Derived
Geophysical Data
Summary
Marine seismic reflection data (45 boomer and 42 CHIRP lines) and
vibracores were collected during cruise 01SCC01 to image and map sedimentary
and structural features of the seafloor and subsurface. These data were
collected in collaboration with the University of New Orleans, the Army Corps
of Engineers, and the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources.
