Purpose
|
Supplement existing Chirp subbottom profiles in Buzzards Bay and
Vineyard Sound with deeper penetration Boomer profiling system. These data
will contribute to a more complete geologic framework for the Mass CZM
mapping program.

Summary
|
Approximately 140-line km of seismic data were collected in Buzzards
Bay and Vineyard Sound. A boomer source, Geometrics 8-channel GeoEel
and
acquisition stem was used. Digital seismic-reflection data were acquired
in SEG-Y or SEG-D format. Navigation was DGPS and was logged in raw
Hypack
format.
