Notes: The NOAA Seabeam data were collected during July and August, 1988, on the NOAA ship SURVEYOR S-1-88 EGAL under direction of Capt. Wm. Stubblefield. I was the only USGS person onboard for a part of the data collection from the Gulf of Alaska along the continental slope-- long. 143-150. The sheets include processed seabeam bathymetry done by NOAA, and overlay sheets that I made on board the ship. These overlays are interpretations of the seafloor morphology. Paul Carlson.
