Equipment Used
|
|
|
Purpose
|
Understand the geologic evolution of the coast and inner continental
shelf and by investigating the subsurface sediment facies present on the
underlying carbonate platform.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
Grain size, calcium carbonate conetent and total organic
content for all cores. Select smaples mineralogy by XRD analysis and
age dating by carbon 14 or Sr-isotope ratio.
|
|
|
Summary
|
123 cores collected and analyzed from Oct. 1994 to Sept. 1997. 20 cores
collected in association with the USGS 1996 portion of the project.

|
|
Notes
|
Part of a project which began in October 1994 and ended in September
1997.
