Field Activity 2007-034-FA

Identifier 2007-034-FA
Purpose Ground truth NOAA survey of Woods Hole (H11077) with sub-bottom profiles and bottom sampling and photography.
Location Woods Hole, Massachusetts, United States, North America, North Atlantic;
Summary A total of 58 stations were occupied (44 sampling and photography; 14 photography only). Chirp high-resolution seismic reflection data were collected along 12.6 km of tracklines.
Info derived Grain size analysis; Sea floor map; Bathymetric maps;
Comments Cruise plans involved 0.5 days of seismic profiling and 1.5 days of bottom sampling and photography. Original Center People field contained: Dave Foster (ship operator/seismic technician); Chuck Worley (ship operator/seismic technician); Dann Blackwood (photographer/SEABOSS operator); Kate McMullen (field technician/watch stander). Project = Sea and Lake Floor Mapping, Sea and Lake Floor Mapping
