Information to be Derived Vibracores used to derive high-resolution sedimentation distribution and thickness; to locate sand deposits to be used in Louisiana beach renourishment projects. Summary A total of 227 vibracores were collected during this project. Cruise 00SCC01 contains vibracore samples BSS00-01 through BSS00-64. Notes These FACS logs were generated by Chandra Dreher in June of 2003, using the handwritten logbooks and personal accounts of the scientist and crewmembers.
