Sediment core photographs collected aboard R/V Weatherbird II cruises WB-0815 and WB-0915 in the northern Gulf of Mexico from 2015-08-16 to 2015-10-01

This dataset contains sediment core photographs collected aboard R/V Weatherbird II cruises WB-0815 and WB-0915 in the northern Gulf of Mexico from 2015-08-16 to 2015-10-01. Sediment cores were longitudinally split and photographed with a Nikon D5100 digital camera with a scale in metric units (cm and mm) for a visual representation of sediment stratigraphy, color, and visual properties. The dataset contains an excel spreadsheet with the photograph filename, core ID, date, location and depth of sediment core collection. Cruise documentation was provided for the R/V Weatherbird II cruises WB-0815 and WB-0915. The cruises were led by chief scientists Dr. Steve Murawski and Dr. David Hollander. Other bulk density/porewater data from the sediment cores collected during these cruises are available under GRIIDC UDI R4.x267.000:0107.本数据集收录了2015年8月16日至2015年10月1日期间，由研究科考船“气象鸟二号”（R/V Weatherbird II）在墨西哥湾北部执行WB-0815、WB-0915航次所采集的沉积物岩心照片。沉积物岩心经纵向剖开后，使用搭载公制单位（厘米与毫米）标尺的尼康D5100（Nikon D5100）数码相机进行拍摄，以可视化呈现沉积物的地层结构、颜色及外观特性。本数据集附带一份Excel电子表格，内含照片文件名、岩心编号、采集日期、采样位置及沉积物岩心采集深度等信息。研究科考船“气象鸟二号”WB-0815与WB-0915航次的相关文档已随本数据集一并提供。本次航次由首席科学家史蒂夫·穆拉夫斯基博士（Dr. Steve Murawski）与戴维·霍兰德博士（Dr. David Hollander）主持。本次航次采集的沉积物岩心的其他容重/孔隙水数据，可通过GRIIDC UDI R4.x267.000:0107获取。
