COR1404 MARGES Expedition in the San Jorge Gulf in 2014: Marine Geology Data, Sediment Characterization
COR1404 MARGES Expedition took place from February 17th to March 4th 2014 on board the research vessel (R/V) Coriolis II. The general objective was to perform detailed geophysical surveys, and to collect different types of sediment samples in the San Jorge Gulf and adjacent continental shelf edge-upper slope area (Argentina).
This dataset includes sample locations and high-resolution images of the cores (CT-scan and photo). Different sediment properties were analyzed:
Physical properties: spectrophotometry (L a b, RGB, XYZ, Munsell color), gamma density, P-wave velocity and amplitude, fractional porosity, resistivity and impedance.
Magnetic properties: magnetic susceptibility.
Chemical properties: X-ray fluorescence, 14C isotopic dating.
For further information on the methodology, please consult St-Onge et al. (2007).
