Toward Linking Seabed Stratigraphy and Nested Seismic Datasets in STRATAFORM: Finalizing Plans for Long Coring and Synthesizing Existing Physical Property Data

Abstract

The long-term goal of this project is to synthesize existing STRATAFORM data into forms that will serve a larger community and to further the existing goal of long coring within the STRATAFORM scientific framework. This final phase of synthesis and ground-truthing is critical for achieving the goals of the STRATAFORM program, as it represents the bridge between physical stratigraphic observations and seismic interpretations of depositional processes. As this award is on a January-January cycle, these results represent a mid-year progress report of this year's studies.
