2010 Hudson River Shallow Water Sediment Cores

Description

The Hudson River Shallow Water Mapping project characterizes the bottom of the Hudson River Estuary in shallow water (<3 m). The characterization includes acoustic data and bottom verification through sediment cores and grabs. Sediment cores and grabs for the zone of the Hudson River between Troy, NY and Saugerties, NY were collected in April 2010 by scientists of Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory operating as sub-contractors of Fugro Atlantic. Samples were collected using the D. Prichard, a Stony Brook University vessel and analysed and archived at Lamont Doherty. This data set describes details of the sediment grabs. The grab samples were described in the field. Original contact information: Contact Org: NOAA Office for Coastal Management Phone: 843-740-1202 Email: coastal.info@noaa.gov
