CHIRP Data from the Mississippi River acquired during R/V Strong survey MISSRIV11 (2011)

Phase III (see <a href=http://www-udc.ig.utexas.edu/sdc/cruise.php?cruiseIn=missriv08>MISSRIV08</a> for Phase I) of a collaborative effort between the University of Memphis and University of Texas previous 2010 survey (<a href=http://www-udc.ig.utexas.edu/sdc/cruise.php?cruiseIn=missriv10>MISSRIV10</a>) on the M/V <i>Strong</i> collected high-resolution seismic reflection data and CHIRP data along the Mississippi River. The goal was to image the New Madrid Seismic Zone active fault system and a series of inferred faults suspected to be responsible for earthquake induced liquefaction features predating the seismic activity of the New Madrid Seismic Zone.
