Short-lived radioisotope, sediment core photographs, and bulk density/porewater data from sediment cores collected aboard R/V Weatherbird II and R/V Justo Sierra cruises in the Gulf of Mexico from 2015-07-30 to 2015-10-01 (NCEI Accession 0232032)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 03:51 AM | Dataset Last Updated: June 09, 2021 at 12:00 AM
This dataset contains short-lived radioisotope (SLRad), sediment core photographs, and bulk density/porewater data from sediment cores collected aboard R/V Weatherbird II and R/V Justo Sierra cruises in the Gulf of Mexico from 2015-07-30 to 2015-10-01. Bulk density/porewater data reports measurements 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 the base of cores. SLRad data were generated for selected core sub-samples. For sediment-core photograph data, sediment cores were longitudinally split and photographed with a Nikon D5100 digital camera with a scale in metric units (cm and mm) for a visual representation of sediment stratigraphy, color, and visual properties.
