Description
Summary:The scientific objectives of CAGE22-1 expedition were to 1) explore the seafloor at the historical disposal area in Repparfjord using a TowCam-multicorer system. The visual seafloor observations allow to characterize the composition and distribution of benthic communities and for targeted sediment samplings. 2) Collect sediment cores in and out of the disposal area and extract pore fluids for trace metals and gas analyses. The cruise may be known as: CAGE22_1
