| Purpose | Collect vibracores and gravity cores from the western part of Lake Mead to describe the sedimentary structures and composition of post-impoundment sediment in this part of the lake. | ||||||||
| Location | Boulder Basin, Las Vegas Bay, Lake Mead, Nevada, Arizona, United States, North America; | ||||||||
| Summary | Vibracores: 16; gravity cores: 12. | ||||||||
| Comments | Note that the cruise has been delayed 2 weeks because of problems with the coring barge. Original Center People field contained: Kenneth Parolski, coring mobilization and coring technician; VeeAnn Cross, GIS and data integration; Keith Ludwig (USGS, St. Pete), assist with vibracoring. Project = Lake Mead Sediment Study, Lake Mead Sediment Study Information from Foghorn: P-code GPS receiver and laptop with GIS and Blue Marble software to interface between Plugger and GIS; | ||||||||
