Field Activity M201GM

Identifier M201GM
Alternate names M-2-01-GM,MW-1-01-GM
Purpose Map the region between the 50 to 150-m isobaths south from the eastern edge of De Soto Canyon as far as Steamboat Lumps. These data should prove extremely useful in relating dominant species groups (which display highly specific biotope affinities) to the geomorphology (e.G., reef flattop, forereef crest, reef wall, reef base, circum-reef talus zone, circum-reef, high-reflectivity sediment apron, etc.)
