Ancillary calibration information for sediment physical properties data from the Papua New Guinea MARGINS Focus Site acquired during the Melville expedition VANC21MV (2004)

This data set was during Melville expedition VANC21MV conducted in 2004 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Charles Nittrouer). The data files are in Text File (ASCII) format and were acquired as part of the projects: Processes Controlling Depositional Signals of Environmental Change in the Fly River Sediment Dispersal System: Mechanisms and Rates of Shelf Clinoform Development; and, Dispersion, Cycling and Burial of Organic Carbon in a River-Dominated Margin: The Fly River/Gulf of Papua Shelf. Funding was provided by NSF grants: OCE02-03351 and OCE02-20600. This data was cited by Crockett et al., 2005 and Martin et al., 2008.
