Hurricane Sandy, the largest storm of historical record in the Atlantic basin, severely impacted southern Long Island, New York in October 2012. In 2014, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), conducted a high-resolution multibeam echosounder survey with Alpine Ocean Seismic Survey, Inc., offshore of Fire Island and western Long Island, New York to document the post-storm conditions of the inner continental shelf. The objectives of the survey were to determine the impact of Hurricane Sandy on the inner continental shelf morphology and modern sediment distribution, and provide additional geospatial data for sediment transport studies and coastal change model development.
For more information about the WHCMSC Field Activity, see https://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/fan_info.php?fan=2014-072-FA.
To provide the data acquisition logs in PDF and Microsoft word formats and Excel spreadsheet logs. These logs contain descriptive information about multibeam echosounder data acquisition, navigation, system and shipboard setup, and processing routines. These files are needed to address problems and/or questions related to U.S. Geological Survey Field Activity 2014-072-FA.
