Data of field activity K-2-91-BG in Bering Glacier, Alaska
from 07/02/1991 to 07/06/1991
- Abstract:
-
Chief Scientist: Paul Carlson. Data (bathymetry, meters,
navigation) of field activity K-2-91-BG in Bering Glacier,
Alaska from 07/02/1991 to 07/06/1991,
<http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/k/k291bg/html/k-2-91-bg.meta.html>.
- Supplemental_Information:
-
Equipment Used -
bathymetry data directory exists
meters data directory exists
navigation data directory exists
Notes -
Geopulse, 3.5 khz bathymetry, sidescan, and sampling
from Icy Bay to Vitus Lake
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...
