<abstract>
University of New Orleans,United States Geological Survey,
St. Petersburg, Florida,Louisiana State University. Chief
Scientist: Jack Kindinger. Vibracoring data (vibratingcore)
of field activity 97SCC01 (G-1-97-LA) in Lake Pontchartrain,
Louisiana (North Beach, Old Pearl River, Lake Borgne, and
West Middle River, LA) from 07/13/1997 to 07/20/1997,
http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/g/g197la/html/g-1-97-la.meta.html.
</abstract>
<purpose>
These data and information are intended for science
researchers, students from elementary through
college, policy makers, and general public.
</purpose>
<supplinf>

Equipment Used -

vibratingcore                 Brand: Bradford, Media: 3"x 20' pipe, Code: vc, Comment: pneumatic vibracore

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. Samples are stored in PON96 at the University of New Orleans, New

Orleans, LA (for further information, contact Phil McCarty, pmccarty@uno.edu).

Similar information is available for thousands
of other USGS/CMG-related Activities.

If known, available are Activity-specific
navigation, gravity, magnetics, bathymetry,
seismic, and sampling data; track maps; and
equipment information; as well as summary
overviews, crew lists, and information
about analog materials.

If available, access to physical samples is
described in the "WR CMG Sample Distribution
Policy" at:
http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/programs/html/main/sample-dist-policy.html
