Imaging Data from Sediment Cores from the Pointe-des-Monts Underwater Canyon System (St. Lawrence Estuary) | Données d'imagerie des carottes sédimentaires provenant du système de canyons sous-marins de Pointe-des-Monts (estuaire du Saint-Laurent)

Listed in St. Lawrence Global Observatory - CIOOS | Observatoire global du Saint-Laurent - SIOOC

This dataset includes high resolution photography, radiography and laminography of short sediment cores of submarine canyon slopes sampled from October 2020 to Oct 2022 offshore Pointe-des-Monts.

Description

The objective of this work is to determine the recurrence of turbidites observed in the short sediment cores in order to determine if they reflect turbidity current activity within the Pointe-des-Monts submarine canyon system.

The second objective is to determine the influence of bottom currents on the sedimentary deposits record. This project was originally funded by Réseau Québec maritime (RQM) and Marine Environmental Observation, Prediction, and Response Network (MEOPAR).
