Purpose
|
|
Three goals:
|
|
1. Image the coastal nearshore to determine areas of rock outcorps and
|
|
depositional sites for sand using side-scanning sonar;
|
|
2. Image the thickness of the sediment accumulation over bedrock using
|
|
high-resolution geophysical profiling;
|
|
3. Gather bathymetric profiling data to be used both for geophysical record
|
|
interpretation and for mapping of the nearshore areas previously
|
|
unmapped in detail by personnel of Pacific Marine Geology.
|
|
|
Summary
|
|
High-resolution Geophysical and side-scan sonar surveys along
|
|
the 40 meter contour between Pt. Santa Cruz to Rockaway Beach.
|
|
The cruise was a complete success. All sought after goals were met
|
|
with excellent results from all systems used.
