| abstract |
This British Geological Survey (BGS) marine sampling survey took place in 1968 in the Firth of Forth on board the FRV Clupea. Work was originally planned as a geophysical cruise but due to boiler trouble with the FRS Scotia this vessel was substituted at short notice. In the time available it was not practicable to install geophysical equipment except side scan sonar. Sea floor data were collected using echo sounder. Seabed samples were collected using a shipek grab and rock dredge, sediment cores were collected using a gravity corer and a rock gravity corer. Sixty three stations were occupied these data are archived by BGS. Technical details of the survey are contained in IGS Internal Report 70/1.
