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.
