Petrophysical measurements on core plug samples of sediment core CRP-1 (Table 1)

Comparison of our bulk densities with continuous whole-core density records shows very good agreement. Core-plug measurements of matrix density permit conversion of the whole-core density record to porosity.

Agreement between our magnetic susceptibility measurements and the continuous, whole-core data is excellent. In contrast, our atmospheric pressure measurements of P-wave velocity are ~10% faster than whole-core data obtained at the same pressure. Our measurements of velocity versus pressure indicate that in situ P-wave velocities are probably only 1-3% higher than those measured at atmospheric pressure.
