Purpose
|
|
Ground-truth geophysical data using video, digital seafloor imagery,
|
|
and physical sampling.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Surficial geology, grain size, and benthic habitat observations.
|
|
|
Summary
|
|
12 days spent collecting underwater video on transects over multibeam
|
|
and sidescan data coverage areas in 5 to 100 m water depths in the main axis of
|
|
Glacier Bay, the two northern inlet (arms), and smaller interior bays. Sediment
|
|
samples, short gravity cores, and bed sediment camera imagery were collected
|
|
throughout cruise. Digital video tapes. Data files of video observations.
|
|
Digital macro photos. Short cores. Bottom grab samples.
