hovercraft and fault rupture
Posted by heartland chris on March 07, 2010 at 21:56:01:


It is still Sunday for 10 more minutes. When I woke up the previous time this morning my eyes hurt...fluorescent lights and coffee replacing my previous 2, unavailable addictions, beer and television (they have satellite TV but not south of the Bahamas). I missed some Navy dudes and dudettes buzzing around R/V Endeavor in their 2 hovercrafts but saw them more in the distance later. Paul Mann (UTIG) and Carol Prentice (USGS) came on the ship via zodiac and stayed for a whole 15 minutes to go over what they were finding onshore; a probable small surface rupture, which projected offshore to the Bay that we surveyed with our zodiac with HW's sidescan sonar, a mini chirp seismic profiler. This was done by Sean, Matt, and Hal, not me.
