Seismic:Reflection:MCS
Raw Multi-Channel Seismic Shot Data from the New Jersey Margin acquired during R/V Maurice Ewing expedition EW9009 (1990)
This data set was acquired with the LDEO Multi-Channel Seismic system during R/V Maurice Ewing expedition EW9009 conducted in 1990 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Gregory Mountain). These data files are of SEGY format and include Multi-Channel Reflection Seismic shot data that have not been processed. Data were acquired as part of the project: Geometry and Timing of Upper Oligocene to Miocene Depositional Sequences on the U.S. Middle Atlantic Margin, and funding was provided by NSF grants: DPP89-11810, OCE92-03282, and OCE92-03344. These data are cited by Shipboard Scientific Party, 1994, Miller et al., 1996, Miller and Mountain, 1994, Mountain and Miller, 1994, Miller et al., 1996, Fulthorpe et al., 1996, Miller et al., 1998, Expedition 313 Scientists, 2010, and Dugan and Flemings, 2000.
