Chief Scientists: Kathy Scanlon, Laura Robinson, WHOI. Dredge
and Trawl Sampling and Multibeam Sonar and Photo data
(TowCam) of field activity 08004 (P-1-08-AN) in Drake
Passage, Southern Ocean from 04/18/2008 to 05/25/2008,
http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/p/p108an/html/p-1-08-an.meta.html.
These data and information are intended for science
researchers, students from elementary through
college, policy makers, and general public.
Equipment Used -

Notes -
Navigation technique: gps;.<br>
Seafloor mapping (using multibeam sonar and deep-towed camera) and samp
ling (by dredge and trawl) of fossil and live cold-water corals for paleo-oceano
graphic and ecological studies.
All multibeam and photographic data and fossil coral
specimens will be archived at WHOI. Modern coral specimens will be
archived at University of Hawaii. A separate scientific party from
the University of Texas shared the shiptime. They collected
multibeam bathymetry, underway magnetics and multichannel seismics
and dredged rock samples. Those data are not part of this project
and are archived at Univ. of Texas (P.I.s: Ian Dalziel and Larry
Lawver)
37 days at sea.
