Description:
Abstract:
Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute. Chief Scientist: David Caress, MBARI. Chirp and Multibeam Sonar data of field activity Z-1-10-SC in Offshore Los Angeles and Orange Counties, southern California from 08/10/2010 to 08/23/2010, <http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/z/z110sc/html/z-1-10-sc.meta.html>.
Purpose:
These data and information are intended for science researchers, students from elementary through college, policy makers, and general public.
Supplemental_Information:

Notes -
USGS contracted for 2 18-hour surveys of selected areas using the MBARI AUV, conducted on Aug. 21-22, 2010

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... <http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/>
This page accomodates a variety of search approaches (e.g., by platform, by region, by scientist, by equipment type, etc.).
