Data Type(s): Seismics: Sparker, Seismics: Sub Bottom Profiler, Imagery: Photo, Location-Elevation: Navigation
Scientific Purpose/Goals: Obtain high-resolution (700 J) sub-bottom data in the Florida Straits to complete mapping the sedimentary sequences discovered on previous cruises; and obtain sample outcrops of sequences that outcrop in the Florida Canyon.
Vehicle(s):
Start Port/Location: Tampa, FL
End Port/Location: Ft. Lauderdale, FL
Start Date: 1983-11-09
End Date: 1983-11-22
Equipment Used: Teledyne single-channel 300-500J 40-tip minisparker, Single channel hydrophone, Del Norte 26 sparker, ORE 140 transceiver/1036 transducer sub-bottom profiler, Benthos model 372 camera and strobe, Loran-C
Information to be Derived: Sea floor map; Morphology; Samples and chemical analysis;
Summary of Activity and Data Gathered: Camera was lost on the first cast due to a break in the wire on the drum. 30,000 J Sparker data: 1520 km; 3.5 kHz ORE data: 1750 km; Cores: 10 (avg. 2.5 m); Dredges: 3; Minisparker data: 1520 km.
