Purpose | |
Abstract | During SO126 the shelf and deep-sea fan of the Bay of Bengal were investigated by geological, reflection seismic and oceanographic methods. At the shelf the deposition during the last 300 years were studied by vibrocoring and sediment-echosounder. Though multibeam data has been recorded it was not the main focus of the cruise and no acquisition information has been provided by the responsible party. |
