Description:
Abstract:
This report chapter presented photographs taken in the vicinity of Niantic Bay, Connecticut during March 1996 aboard the RV John Dempsey with a still camera attached to a Van Veen grab sampler (Poppe and others, 1998a). The still camera was a Photosea model 1000; Kodak Professional Color Negative ASA 400 film was used. Station identifiers, navigation, and descriptions of these photographs were given in Table 1 of this chapter; ancillary sediment data are supplied in Poppe and others (1998b). Descriptions of bottom video collected concurrently with the still photography are available in Poppe and others (1996) and for viewing at the Woods Hole Science Center.
Purpose: Bottom photography and sedimentary environments
