Ground-truth geophysical data using video, digital seafloor imagery, and physical sampling.
Description
National Marine Fisheries Service Santa Cruz Laboratory. Chief Scientist: Guy Cochrane. Gravity Coring and Photo and Sediment Sampling data (GPS, underwatertelevision, digitalcamera, VanVeengrab, gravitycore) of field activity G-1-04-GB in Glacier Bay National Park, Gustavus, Alaska from 04/05/2004 to 04/17/2004
Location
Alaska
Summary
12 days spent collecting underwater video on transects over multibeam and sidescan data coverage areas in 5 to 100 m water depths in the main axis of Glacier Bay, the two northern inlet (arms), and smaller interior bays. Sediment samples, short gravity cores, and bed sediment camera imagery were collected throughout cruise. Digital video tapes. Data files of video observations. Digital macro photos. Short cores. Bottom grab samples.
Info derived
Surficial geology, grain size, and benthic habitat observations.
