United States Geological Survey, St. Petersburg, Florida.
Chief Scientist: Jack Kindinger. Box Coring and Vibracoring
data (vibratingcore, boxcore) of field activity 98GPF01
(G-1-98-LA) in Lake Pontchartrain, Louisiana (South Shore
Dredge Pits, NE Pit in frontof Airport lake front, LA) from
06/04/1998 to 06/19/1998,
http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/g/g198la/html/g-1-98-la.meta.html.
These data and information are intended for science
researchers, students from elementary through
college, policy makers, and general public.
Equipment Used -
vibratingcore Seafloor core, Brand: Bradford pneumatic, Media: 3"x 20' pipe, Code: vc
boxcore Seafloor core, Media: Stainless Box, Code: boxc, Comment: 1m2x1m
Notes -
These FACS logs were generated by Chandra Dreher in June of 2003, using
the handwritten logbooks and personal accounts of the scientist and crew
members.
<BR>
Box cores with sample site number IDs are stored at the USGS St. Petersburg
downstairs SE corner core lab (contact Jack Kindinger jkindinger@usgs.gov).
<BR>
Vibracores with sample ID name PON97 are stored at the University of New
Orleans, New Orleans (contact Phil McCarty pmccarty@uno.edu).
