| Purpose | Survey the continental slope in the northern Gulf of Mexico with the GLORIA long-range sidescan-sonar, a cooperative study with the Institute of Oceanographic Sciences, Godalming, England. | ||||||||
| Location | continental slope, northern Gulf of Mexico, United States, North America, North Atlantic; | ||||||||
| Summary | The cruise collected 3,731 nautical miles of data on the continental slope in 17 days for the USGS, and in 2 additional days collected 395 nautical miles (732 km) of sidescan, 10 kHz echo sounder and large airgun data for an IPOD site survey on Mississippi Fan. The IPOD data will be deposited in the IPOD data bank when processing is completed. GLORIA sidescan sonar: 6910 km (12 reels of 9-track digital magnetic tapes, 12 reels of analog magnetic tapes, 464 photo negatives, photo prints, speed rectified sidescan data, shipboard monitor records); 10 kHz echo sounder: 6910 km (2 sec. sweep shipboard records, 0.5 sec. sweep shipboard records); Airgun: 6910 km (59 reels of analog magnetic tape, shipboard monitor records); Navigation: 50 Northstar cassette recordings from bridge, 19 magnetic tapes from seismic lab, 8 rolls printout from bridge, 4 rolls printout from seis lab, 1 reel digital 9-track tape of LORAN-C plus satellite fixes with water depths; XBT records: 69. | ||||||||
