| Purpose | Map and define the geologic framework of Nantucket Sound. | ||||||||
| Location | Nantucket Sound, MA | ||||||||
| Summary | Approximately 19 sq km of Teledyne T20P multibeam sonar data was collected along 424 km of lines spaced 52 and 40 meters apart during 8 days of survey operations. EdgeTech 3400 seismic profiles were collected along 394 kms of tracklines. In addition, sediment samples, bottom video, and photographs were collected at 60 locations using the mini-SEABOSS Sampler. Ground validation locations covered both 2023-001-FA and 2022-001-FA acoustic data. | ||||||||
