Purpose
Abstract The objective of the cruise SO-204 was to retrieve a couple of piston cores and a series of surface sediment in order to characterize the sedimentology of this area and to retrieve sedimentary archives that would fill the huge geographical gap existing in paleoceanographic record in the South Central Pacific zone. Though MBES mapping occurred throughout this cruise no further information has been provided by the responsible party.
