abstract: This marine geophysical survey undertaken by Institute of Geological Sciences (BGS) took place March to June 1972 in the English channel (west of Cherbourg) on board the M.V. Researcher. The survey was carried out as part of the Anglo-French effort to produce geological and geophysical maps of the channel. Data were gathered for Project:72/3 using the following equipment Navigation: Decca Hifix and Main Chain; LaCoste Sea Gravity Meter; Barringer Magnetometer; ORE profiler/precision Echo-Sounder; MS47 Transit Sonar; NERC Data Logger, a total of 3921km were covered. These data are archived by BGS. Technical details of the survey are contained in BGS Internal Report WB/ MG/72/33.
additional info: For more detailed information on the acquisition equipment and data collection techniques, operational standards, data processing methods and quality control procedures used on this survey see the Report of Survey/Cruise Report and associated documentation where available. The information available may vary depending on the age of the survey. Data are checked and loaded to the BGS Coastal and Marine data management system following BGS marine data management procedures.
