Sedimentologic data and core descriptions from surface samples and sand augers collected in 2023 from the northern Chandeleur Islands, Louisiana
Description
In 2023, scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (USGS SPCMSC) conducted a sediment sampling survey at the northern Chandeleur Islands, Louisiana. Funded by the Extending Government Funding and Delivering Emergency Assistance Act (Public Law 117-43) enacted on September 30, 2021, these data complement sediment data from samples previously collected from the Chandeleur Islands in 2007, 2008, 2012, 2013, and 2015.
