83CR00 map of where navigation equipment operated

Purpose
Characterization of the geological framework.
Information to be Derived
"Jetting technique" (water is pumped through a hose and a pipe) to depth of
previous core penetration to achieve a deeper depth; noted as run(s) for this
study.
(For example: Grain Size,
Depth to Basement)
Summary
Summary and evaluation of data is referenced in Alpine Ocean Seismic Survey,
Inc., June 1986, Final Report: Louisiana Sand Resource Inventory 1985 Vibracore
Services, for Department of Natural Resources State of Louisiana, Contract
No.21940-86-01, ORC Contract No. 431-6006, amendment OCR Contract No. 431-6006A.
Data Gathered
Notes
Chandra Dreher generated these FACS logs in January of 2007, using the
handwritten logbooks and personal accounts of the scientist and crewmembers.
This cruise 83CR00 contains vibracore samples CR_2 through CR_40; of these
vibracores 23 cores are represented with description sheet, digitized data for
this project.
