Sediment Core Descriptions: R/V Kana Keoki 1973 North Central Pacific Cruise, 1974 Southeastern Pacific Cruise, and a 1974 Mid-Atlantic Ridge IPOD Site-Survey,

Abstract

This report presents generalized descriptions of deep-sea sediment cores collected by personnel of the Hawaii Institute of Geophysics (HIG) during the R/V Kana Keoki's cruise of 1973 in the North Central Pacific, the 1974 cruise in the Southeastern Pacific, and a 1974 IPOD-Site Survey conducted in the Mid-Atlantic Ridge area. These initial descriptions, in addition to those presented by Andrews et al. (1970, 1973, 1975, 1976) for the Solomon Islands 1968-1969 cruises, Murray Fracture Zone and Western Pacific 1970 cruises, and Eastern and Western Pacific 1971 and 1972 cruises, serve as a guide to samples available through the Sediment Core Analysis Laboratory of the Hawaii Institute of Geophysics.
