Field Activity J397MB

Identifier J397MB
Alternate names J-3-97-MB
Purpose Recover and fill in gaps in the across shelf data set collected during D2, and D6-95 cruises
Description Chief Scientists: Roberto Anima, Steve Eittreim. Geophysical data (Kleinsidescan, Geopulse, bathymetry, GPS, 2channelairgun) of field activity J-3-97-MB in Monterey Bay, California from 11/03/1997 to 11/07/1997
Location California
Summary Ran shore parallel high-resolution tracklines between Capitola and Moss Landing to fill in and area with no data. This data set will add data to the side-scan mosaic that is being produced.
Info derived Location of rock outcrops on the nearshore sea-floor, variations in sediment texture in the nearshore, and structure of the subbottom that show folding and faulting in the subbottom stratigraphy.
