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. Noted were some Nav equipment problems, which LORAN was used for

Nav during the Seismic survey.

&lt;BR&gt;

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

Primary access to the USGS/CMG Information
Bank's digital data, analog data, and
metadata is provided through...
