| Purpose | Obtain piston cores and grab samples to correlate lithology with acoustic stratigraphy determined in the 1976 Lake George cruise (FA 76042 SEABISKIT); sidescan locations for orientations of gassy sediments, faults, channels, bedrock ridges, etc. seen in acoustic records; shakedown NEECHO to test, evaluate platform and equipment, and consider modifications; collect 1.5, 3.5 and 7 kHz and sidescan data in areas surveyed by FA 76042 cruise; and test OBIP in a quiet water environment. | ||||||||
| Location | Lake George, New York, United States, North America; | ||||||||
| Summary | Sidescan sonar: 14.4 km; Airgun - 5 in.: 25.4 km; Airgun - 40 in.: 11.8 km; 7 kHz: 130 km; Piston cores: 14; Van Veen grabs: 5. | ||||||||
