| Purpose | High-resolution single-channel seismic survey of the Federal Outer Continental Shelf from High Island area, off Texas, to South Marsh Island area, off Louisiana. | ||||||||
| Location | High Island area, Texas, South Marsh Island area, Louisiana, federal outer continental shelf, Gulf of Mexico, United States, North America, North Atlantic; | ||||||||
| Summary | Data from the fathometer, sub-bottom profiler and minisparker were recorded simultaneously over the grids: 2,971.58 km ea. (13,061 km in conjunction with FA 80037 AMARILLO). | ||||||||
| Info derived | Morphology; | ||||||||
| Comments | This work was contracted by the USGS to Intersea Research Corporation. Post-cruise report information was derived from contractor's final report. Original Center People field contained: Ron Miller - USGS-Corpus Christi (Sep. 5-11 between AMARILLO and SEA RAIDER). | ||||||||
