Organization(s): USGS, Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center
Funding Program(s):
Principal Investigator(s): John Bratton, John Crusius
Affiliate Investigator(s): John Masterson, WRD
Information Specialist(s): John Bratton
Data Type(s): Electro-Magnetic: Resistivity, Seismics: Boomer
Scientific Purpose/Goals: Electrical resistivity surveying of Ninigret Pond to detect sub-estuarine fresh groundwater; CHIRP seismic survey to image basal Holocene reflector.
Vehicle(s):
Start Port/Location: Ninigret Pond, Charlestown Breachway, RI
End Port/Location: Ninigret Pond, Charlestown Breachway, RI
Start Date: 2004-01-13
End Date: 2004-01-13
Equipment Used: Resistivity Profiler, Boomer
Information to be Derived:
Summary of Activity and Data Gathered: Weather was extremely cold. Access to full pond was limited by ice; offshore surveys cancelled due to rough seas.
