- Abstract:
-
United States Geological Survey, Pacific Science Center.
Chief Scientist: Guy Cochrane. Bottom camera survey, sediment
sampling, mini sparker profiling data of field activity
C-1-09-NC in Humboldt Bay, CA to the Oregon border, state
waters (3 nmi) from 07/12/2009 to 08/02/2009,
<http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/c/c109nc/html/c-1-09-nc.meta.html>.
- Supplemental_Information:
-
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...

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