Sediment Texture And Composition Of Sediment Cores Collected During R/V Weatherbird Ii Cruises In The Northern Gulf Of Mexico From 2010-11-18 To 2016-09-09, Gregg R. Brooks, Rebekka A. Larson Nov 2018

Sediment Texture And Composition Of Sediment Cores Collected During R/V Weatherbird Ii Cruises In The Northern Gulf Of Mexico From 2010-11-18 To 2016-09-09, Gregg R. Brooks, Rebekka A. Larson

C-IMAGE data

Sediment texture and composition data were generated for selected core sub-samples at 2mm sampling intervals for “surficial unit” and 5mm sampling resolution intervals to base of cores. Sediment texture values are expressed as % Gravel, % Sand, % Silt and % Clay as calculated by dry weight (g). % Mud can be calculated by combining % Silt and % Clay. Sediment composition is expressed as % carbonate content measured by acid leaching. This dataset supports the publication: Larson, R. A., Brooks, G. R., Schwing, P. T., Holmes, C. W., Carter, S. R., & Hollander, D. J. (2018). High-resolution investigation of …


Core Extrusion Bulk Density/Pore Water, Northern Gulf Of Mexico, November 2010 To September 2016, Rebekka A. Larson, Gregg R. Brooks Apr 2018

Core Extrusion Bulk Density/Pore Water, Northern Gulf Of Mexico, November 2010 To September 2016, Rebekka A. Larson, Gregg R. Brooks

C-IMAGE data

Measurement of sediment sample wet weight (g) and dry weight (g) for core sub-samples at 2mm sampling intervals for “surficial unit” and 5mm sampling resolution intervals to base of cores. Bulk density is the dry weight per sampling volume expressed as g/cm^3 and is utilized in the calculation of Mass Accumulation Rates (MAR’s). Samples were collected in the northern Gulf of Mexico from November 2010 to September 2016.
