Bottom Sediments of Georges Bank (WIGLEY61 shapefile)

These data were collected as part of a survey of the bottom sediments of Georges Bank. The purpose of the survey was to provide basic data for use in studying the relationships between substrate composition and the occurrence of benthic animals, especially those which are common foods of fishes. Particle size composition was the principal sediment character that was studied.本数据集采集自乔治浅滩（Georges Bank）的海底沉积物科考调查。本次调查旨在获取基础数据，用于研究底质组成与底栖动物分布之间的关联，尤其聚焦于作为鱼类常见饵料的底栖动物类群。本次研究重点考察的沉积物核心特征为粒度组成。
