Dive and Sampling data of field activity W-1-05-SC in Santa
Monica Basin, California Continental Borderland from
02/09/2005 to 02/18/2005
- Abstract:
-
Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute,United States
Geological Survey, Menlo Park, California. Chief Scientist:
Charlie Paull. Dive and Sampling data (navigation) of field
activity W-1-05-SC in Santa Monica Basin, California
Continental Borderland from 02/09/2005 to 02/18/2005,
<http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/w/w105sc/html/w-1-05-sc.meta.html>.
- Supplemental_Information:
-
Equipment Used -
navigation data directory exists
Notes -
(1) Station IDs reflect the Tiburon dive numbers set by MBARI.
(2) Sample numbers are generally not consecutive but reflect permanent labels
on coring and other devices that are randomly chosen before each dive, and
many of the push cores are reused in later dives. USGS sample protocol could
not used during dives except for the Activity ID (W-1-05-SC).
(3) Sample numbers recorded in FACS reflect only those samples that will be
brought to the USGS for logging, description, and, in most cases, archiving.
(4) Water samples collected by CTD/rosette sampler are generally not entered in FACS log because samples are processed on board for MBARI program and for Lorenson project.
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...
