Geophysical data (bathymetry, magnetics) of field activity
A-1-72-SP in Northeast Australia, South Pacific from
05/03/1972 to 05/16/1972,
http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/a/a172sp/html/a-1-72-sp.meta.html.
</abstract>
<purpose>
These data and information are intended for science
researchers, students from elementary through
college, policy makers, and general public.
</purpose>
<supplinf>

Equipment Used -

bathymetry

magnetics

Similar information is available for thousands
of other USGS/CMG-related Activities.

If known, available are Activity-specific
navigation, gravity, magnetics, bathymetry,
seismic, and sampling data; track maps; and
equipment information; as well as summary
overviews, crew lists, and information
about analog materials.

If available, access to physical samples is
described in the "WR CMG Sample Distribution
Policy" at:
http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/programs/html/main/sample-dist-policy.html

Primary access to the USGS/CMG Information
Bank's digital data, analog data, and
metadata is provided through...
http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/

This page accomodates a variety of search
approaches (e.g., by platform, by region,
by scientist, by equipment type, etc.).
