Other ID: none
Status: Completed
Organization(s): USGS, Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center
Funding Program(s):
Principal Investigator(s): William Schwab, E. Robert Thieler
Affiliate Investigator(s): Paul Gayes - CCU
Information Specialist(s): E. Robert Thieler
Data Type(s): Seismics: Sub Bottom Profiler, Location-Elevation: Navigation, Sampling: Geology, Seismics: Boomer, Sonar: Sidescan
Scientific Purpose/Goals: Leg 1: geophysics; Leg 2: vibracoring.
Vehicle(s):
Start Port/Location: Woods Hole, MA
End Port/Location: Woods Hole, MA
Start Date: 1999-07-26
End Date: 1999-08-06
Equipment Used: SIS1000 Chirp Sonar, DGPS, SIS1000 Sidescan sonar, Boomer, Alpine Vibracorer, Van Veen grab sampler, Single channel hydrophone
Information to be Derived:
Summary of Activity and Data Gathered: Leg 1 went well. Leg 2 was cancelled after determining that the coring rig was overweight relative to ship's specs and thus presented an untenable operation.
