Purpose | High-resolution single-channel seismic survey of the Federal Outer Continental Shelf from High Island area, off Texas to South Marsh Island area, off Louisiana. | ||||||||
Location | High Island area, Texas, South Marsh Island area, Louisiana, federal outer continental shelf, Gulf of Mexico, United States, North America, North Atlantic; | ||||||||
Summary | Data from the fathometer, sub-bottom profiler and minisparker were recorded simultaneously over the grids: 10,090.35 km ea. (13,061 km in conjunction with FA 80038 SEA RAIDER). | ||||||||
Info derived | Morphology; | ||||||||
Comments | This work was contracted by the USGS to Intersea Research Corporation. Post-cruise report information was derived from contractor's final report. Original Center People field contained: John West - USGS-Corpus Christi (Aug. 16-17); Ron Miller - USGS-Corpus Christi (Sep. 5-11 between AMARILLO and SEA RAIDER). The associated contractor's report describes the ships and equipment. | ||||||||
