Purpose
|
To map seafloor bathymetry and morphology and collect CHIRP seismic reflection
profile data to characterize delta-bay habitats, sediment thickness, sediment
facies, and recent change in sedimentation history
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
Seafloor bathymetry and acoustic backscatter to characterize benthic morphology
and habitats; CHIRP seismic reflection profile data to quantify sediment
thickness, sediment facies, and recent sedimentation history

Got Help?
|
For S-4-10-PS, we would appreciate any information on -- analog materials, contract, days at sea, dive count, equipment used, funding, kms of navigation, national plan, NGDC Info, owner, project number, publications, scanned materials, seismic description, station count, station description, submersible, summary, tabulated info.
