MISSRIV10 Seismic:Active:Subbottom
CHIRP Data from the Mississippi River acquired during R/V Strong survey MISSRIV10 (2010)
Phase II (see MISSRIV08 for Phase I) of a collaborative effort between the University of Memphis and University of Texas at Austin, this 2010 survey and the subsequent 2011 survey (MISSRIV11) on the M/V Strong collected high-resolution seismic reflection data and CHIRP data along the Mississippi River. The goal was to image the New Madrid Seismic Zone active fault system and a series of inferred faults suspected to be responsible for earthquake induced liquefaction features predating the seismic activity of the New Madrid Seismic Zone. Funded by NSF grant0948619.
