| Purpose | Understand the geologic evolution of the coast and inner cont. shelf and aid in coastal management By investigating the subsurface sediment facies present on the shelf and determine the relationship among facies and with the underlying carbonate platform. | ||||||||
| Location | West-central Florida shelf; Anclote Key (north) and Venice Inlet to the, Florida to 30 km offshore., Florida | ||||||||
| Summary | 123 cores collected and analyzed from Oct. 1994 to Sept. 1997 3 cores collected associated with the Indian Rocks Beach portion of project in 1995. | ||||||||
| Info derived | Grain size, calcium carbonate content and total organic content for all cores. Select samples mineralogy by XRD analysis and age dating by carbon 14 or Sr-isotope ratio. | ||||||||
