Title: Marine Geologic Data from the former Larsen A Ice Shelf and Prince Gustav Channel
Description:
Abstract:
Marine geologic data were collected from the northwestern Weddell Sea during cruise 2000-03 of the Nathaniel B. Palmer (see "http://www.hamilton.edu/news/antarctic2000/default.html"). Data set includes: -sediment cores of the upper 3 meters of seafloor, surface grabs -oceanographic profiles of temperature, salinity, and transmissivity, -bottom photographs, -bottom video -biologic dredges -underway temperature, salinity, transmissivity, fluorometry, and PCO2, -acoustic doppler current profiles, -CHIRP high resolution and GIG single channel seismic reflection profiles; and -swath (seabeam) bathymetric maps. Regions of coverage include the fomer area of the Larsen A Ice Shelf and the Prince Gustav Channel in the northeastern offshore of the Antarctic Penninsula (northwestern Weddell Sea). Data were collected from 10 May to June 1st, 2000, cruise report is available from Hamilton College (see Data Center address).
