SAMPLING STRATEGY


Given the shallow-water depths of operation and attendant high rates of anticipated core recovery, only low-resolution sampling will be carried out aboard ship. Such sampling will support description/characterization, facilitate pilot studies, and provide material for projects that do not require a high-temporal resolution. High-resolution sampling will be deferred to a shore-based sampling party shortly after the cruise.
