United States Geological Survey, Menlo Park, California. Chief Scientist: Mike Field. Geophysical data (Huntec, sidescansonar, mudseis, SIS1000, YoNav) of field activity W-2-95-NC in Northern California from 09/01/1995 to 09/15/1995
Location
Northern California
Summary
We gathered Huntec digital high-resolution and Datasonics SIS-1000 sidescan over an inner shelf region, a shelf-to-slope region, and over the Humboldt Slide. We collected great views of the midshelf mud belt as well as the clinoforms that drape the outer shelf and upper slope. These data will provide the geometrical input into a numerical model of siliclastic sedimentation, one of the primary objectives of STRATAFORM.
