Field Activity 2017-342-FA

Identifier 2017-342-FA
Alternate names 17SGD05
Purpose Map radon, salinity and water temperature, collect CRP and ERT geophysical data, water samples and sediment surface grabs to investigate submarine groundwater discharge within Indian River Lagoon.
Location Indian River Lagoon, Florida
Summary Geophysical, sediment and geochemical datasets
Info derived Map radon, salinity and water temperature, collect CRP data, water samples and sediment surface grabs. We will also be providing support for the Davies USGS who will be deploying a fiber optic cable and temperature probes.
Comments Data collection was not completed during initial survey dates. Second site visit will occur 11/01/17 to 11/07/17.
