Identifier 2019-333-FA
Alternate names 19CCT05, 19CCT06, 19CCT07
Purpose Geophysical shoreface mapping in support of beach and dune monitoring
Location Rockaway Beach, NY, United States, Atlantic Ocean
Summary Multibeam bathymetry (total area collected 109.06 square kilometers, 133 lines), subbottom profiles (74 lines), singlebeam bathymetry (399.76 line-km, 240 lines) and 49 sound velocity casts were collected for this survey.
Info derived Seafloor depth, seafloor texture, Holocene stratigraphy
Comments Additional Staff: Emily Wei SubFANs: R/V Shark SBB = 19CCT05 R/V Chum SBB = 19CCT06 Sled = 19CCT07 (R/V Sallenger MBB and seismic will use the main FAN) 2019-333-FA multibeam bathymetry acquisition was split into 2 separate survey efforts, leg 1 (October 4-6, 2019) and Leg 2 (October 24-29, 2019).
