Supplemental_Information:

Equipment Used -
navigation navigation receiver, CSI Wireless DGPS Max receiver with HYPACK software
boomer sub-bottom profiler, C-Products C-Boom sub-bottom profiler with C-Boom power supply and plate, Benthos MESH 10-channel streamer (12-inch phone spacing and all phones on), and TEI Delph Seismic version 2.6 software
