Field Activity 1989-022-FA

Identifier 1989-022-FA
Purpose To collect high-resolution seismic refraction and seismic reflection data across the Grenville Front at its coastal exposure using airgun sources and land seismometers.
Location Northern Georgian Bay, Lake Huron, Ontario, Canada, North America;
Info derived Morphology;
Comments The results will complement physical property measurements of rocks from within the Grenville Front tectonic zone and deep seismic reflection results. Information derived from pre-cruise report and geophysics log.
