Cruise Hart 2004010, geophysical and photographic surveys in the Strait of Canso, NS, 27 April - 14 May 2004 / D.R. Parrott.: M183-2/4984E-PDF

Survey Hart 2004010 was conducted from 27 April – 14 May 2004, to provide information on the character and distribution of seafloor sediments around offshore disposal sites near Port Hawkesbury, NS, where about 178,000 m3 of material has been dredged from near the docks of Port Hawkesburyand Mulgrave and placed in offshore disposal sites since 1993. A multidisciplinary suite of data was collected from the CCGS J.L. Hart (Figure 1) and hydrographic survey launch Plover. Geophysical and multibeam bathymetry surveys were performed to determine if material had been transported away from the disposal area. Seafloor photographs, underwater video transects and seafloor samples were taken to provide additional information of the character and composition of the sediments on the seafloor.
