Chief Scientist: Guy Gelfenbaum. Bathymetric and Geological data (GPS, echosounder) of field activity W-2-04-PS in Elwha River, Strait of Juan de Fuca, Washington from 09/07/2004 to 09/09/2004 Organization United States Geological Survey, Menlo Park, California Washington State Department of Ecology Project/Theme Coastal Habitats in Puget Sound Chief Scientist Guy Gelfenbaum Activity Type Bathymetric and Geological Platform Waverunners Area of Operation Elwha River, Strait of Juan de Fuca, Washington, Puget Sound, WA Location map Bounding Coordinates 49.75000 -125.75000    -122.25000 47.25000 Ports LEAVE PT ANGELES, WA ARRIVE PT ANGELES, WA Dates 09/07/2004 (JD 251) to 09/09/2004 (JD 253) Analog Materials No analog holdings. Index map Information Specialist Jodi Eshleman Equipment Used GPS echosounder Purpose To collect nearshore bathymetry prior to dam removal using a third generation coastal profiling system. Information to be Derived Nearshore bathymetry Summary Collected 121 lines of bathymetry and 52 lines of topography from approximately 10 M water depth to the beach, perpendicular to shoreline.
