United States Geological Survey, Pacific Science Center.
Chief Scientist: Jamie Conrad. Multibeam Sonar data of field
activity S-23-10-SC in Offshore San Diego and Orange
Counties, southern California from 11/08/2010 to 11/18/2010,

- Supplemental_Information:
-
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...
