Field Activity 1994-044-FA

Identifier 1994-044-FA
Alternate names GS-1 94-2; LEGS 8-94
Purpose The cruise was set up to finish off the three shore-parallel seismic lines that were planned for the area west of Sandusky.
Location Cooley Creek, Little Cedar Point, Port Clinton, Marblehead, Sandusky, Ohio, Lake Erie, United States, North America;
Comments These lines were the lines originally planned for the June cruise that never was. These lines will assist in the interpretation of the transition from the offshore data set to the nearshore profiles and shore data. These lines were planned to connect the ends of all of the 2000-foot shore normal profiles and extend the data further offshore with lines also at 5000 and 7000 feet offshore.
