Results of analytical tests on sediment cores collected by FFI from the Barents Sea

Ten gravity cores from the Barents Sea have been profield with the X-rayinspection system (XRI) and logged for P-wave velocity, bulk density andmagnetic susceptibility using multi sensor core logger (MSCL). Sediment coreswere opened after these non-destructive analyses, sedimentologically describeda...

Description
Summary:Ten gravity cores from the Barents Sea have been profield with the X-rayinspection system (XRI) and logged for P-wave velocity, bulk density andmagnetic susceptibility using multi sensor core logger (MSCL). Sediment coreswere opened after these non-destructive analyses, sedimentologically describedand undrained shear strenght was measured on selected intervals. The cores weresubsampled for determining water content, wet density, dry density andgrain-size characteristics. 50338
